Well, the reason that blockades block bounties was implemented because otherwise bounties become a way to circumvent blockades, at least in terms of cash.

Like... ground attacks? Let's make them give no cash while blockaded too then.

You're 100% right though: fulfilling the bounty contract and then just being denied the money entirely is stupid and does indeed make bounties nigh uncollectable outside of a major, and expensive, war scenario.

Thus, to address both of these things at once, bounties should really be put into a phantom escrow account that automatically deposits all bounty earnings into the bounty hunters' nation as soon as they're out of blockade. Win/win

Bounties only get delivered if you declared war prior to bounties being placed. I feel like this nullifies most situations in itself where abuse would occur.

 

Additionally, if you need to circumvent a blockade then you probably don't have the resources to fight an additional nation and would only be further worsening your overall situation regardless of cash gained from a bounty.

This weak "what if" reasoning doesn't justify effectively breaking the bounty system for raiders - the primary pursuers of bounties.
