Anyone else feel that bulk trading has been killed by the new mission payouts especially when allied with a faction?

bulk trading the safe way of making money. No mission related pirates and whatnot.

Bulk trading hasn't become less profitable, in fact I have a few areas I can get 4500cr/t routes
It was what I was a year and half ago, since it was THE most profitable thing to do, compared to missions that maybe paid 600k to kill an elite conda and his 15 friends. Or 50k to move a hundred tons of whatever to the other side of the bubble.

you can still get 4500 a tin if you are lucky. depends a lot on demans and whatnot. and te more you keep pumping the same route the less it pays

If money is honestly the only thing that matters, I would get allied with most factions in a system, and do passenger missions in a clipper, or aspx even.
Seeing sightseeing missions in the bubble for 10-20 mil that can be done in about 20-30 minutes..
I use a clipper with a class 6 first class cabin, and a class 7a fuel scoop.
The modded FSD gives me 29ly jump.
