I think Bellamy has changed a lot, too. However, he hurt and killed too many innocent people on purpose. I feel like the only way for him to FULLY redeem himself is if he dies in a heroic way during the war with the Mountain Men. If he fought and died for the other Sky People then it would show how truly sorry he was. Now, I'm NOT saying he deserves to die. I'm simply saying that is what it would take for him to earn full redemption. Finn's case was different. He was sick in the head. He didn't need to give himself up to the Grounders in order to earn redemption because it was never his fault to begin with. Bellamy, however, made the choices he did on purpose. That's what makes Bellamy's crimes so much worse than Finn's crime. I wish there was another way for Bellamy to earn full redemption without him having to give up his life in battle, but because of all the hundreds of innocent people he either hurt or killed I just don't know if there is another way that could redeem him 100%. He has done good things that helped redeem him but they weren't good enough to earn him full redemption.
