Bounty hunters are alwasy blame for selling their tokens so quickly without waiting for the project develpment as outline in the roadmap.  I don't think bounty hunters are to blame because a lot of bounty hunters hold their coins for years.

Um. Dude?

You just went two different ways in two sentences.
You blamed bounty hunters for dumping tokens, and then said that bounty hunters are hodlers, in the very next breath.

Stick with the first one. Bounty hunters are probably more likely to take their money and run, rather than speculating on the future. Especially on this forum, where a lot of them are foreign, and may be more dependent on the income from these programs for supporting their livelihoods.

It's just a problem that can't really be solved. The program creators can't afford to shell out worthwhile currencies for their programs, and the bounty hunters are looking for something liquid.

You have a contrasting statement.

Bounties only consist of 2-5% of the total supply of the proposed tokens. And not everyone dumps their earned tokens right away. This do not have a big effect on the market price.

Some ICO's dump even before bounty hunters get their tokens. This is like blaming miners for dumping  :-\

Who gives a shit?
Take this to the relevant section - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=67.0

This is Bitcoin Discussion not ICO / Bounty / Shitcoin section.

It's always up to bounty hunters to sell or hold their coin, some bounty hunters are here for quick profit because they need money some of them trust the coin they promote and they want to double their profit by holding on to their coins, either way, it's none of our business.

Actually I was so confused with your opinions, you said different things in two sentences. So which one are you, do you blaming all the bounty hunters for selling their coins or do you believe that the bounty hounters is a hodlers?

This maybe true and reality, because the bounty hunters are participating campaign in  many ICOs and as a results those campaigner will be rewarded with tokens, so this token rewarded from bounty will be for dumping, after it will be registered in the trading sites, so that is happenning that there are a lot of token dumping in exchange for ethereum or  bitcoin coins.

To be honest, I believe that it is a subjective term and it differs from holder to holder. I remember, when I first received my bounty tokens, I sold it almost after 1.5 years and I have almost earned more than 500% reward for it. On the other hand, there were some people who sold their bounty coins immediately when they received it in their wallet. Considering my risk profile I believe that it is the risk worth taking and holding tokens as long as I can.

Just a quick answer: NO.

You can always check the allocated amount given to the bounties. It was really way too small compare to other part of the distribution allocation. And besides, I doubt all bounty hunters will sold their coins at the same time so just do the math on how much was only sold by them. Not even can shake the market for high percentage.

Just a bit of offtopic but funny thing here is, some person that part of the project itself, especially those who are assigned to moderate their respective telegram group, always blame bounty hunters that's why their tokens decrease it's price.

Why Bounty hunters are always blamed may know only what percentage of the allocation for Bounty hunters who get from the total supply of gifts provided and if they sell it and I think it will not interfere with the development of the project.

A hunter of bounties can say bad things for their speedy sale of their token holders who have not been waiting for a develpment of their project as being on a roadmap. Not only do I think the hunters of prosperity should be blamed for the fact that there are so many bounty hunters holding their coins for more than a few months or more.

People who are injured in tokens from joining and photocopies for ico when they receive their tokens or sell to the black market at very low prices should cause the market to devalue them

Most of projects have 2-10% of total supply as bounties. I don't think even if bounty hunters sell their tokens, that would be a problem. BTW It's their earned money they can do whatever they want.

I do not think bounty hunters as the one to blame because it is not their fault that they need money after participating in the project because they really seek for the salary and as long as the coin listed on exchange it is the time that you can sell what you have received. We are not to blame because we help them and we need something for everyday expenses.

I say that when it is new it is good that the market absorbs those currencies and thus starts to give value and starts to move more quickly and refinance the project so that it continues to work and improving its platform and give new impetus to the currency and and the rewards som good one is insentiva to work hard so that the projects go to the markets and thus win

It depends! If the bounty is for ICO, today with anticipated sales and funds etc that everyone believes, but in fact, everything is dumped, depending on the bounty offer too, I believe bounty hunters are responsible for 15% to 20%! The initial buyers, they sometimes anticipate the market and know that most of the ICO's are empty, they sell because by selling they would be at minimum making 1.5x! It's rare for me to do some bounty campaign and you can be sure that the first opportunity I will sell knowing that I would be windy, it is necessary to be realistic, the fact that I sell a token now does not mean that it is bad, this environment of selling and buying then it ends up contaminating others.

I agree with your opinion. Almost all hunters just take his salary alone. and they follow some of the projects they want when they will sell them after collecting some of their tokens. after which they will leave it for several months.

this has become a tradition of antiquity, if bounty in distributed would happen dump.apa again now the market conditions are experiencing a decline almost all the coin

As far as I know a lot of bounty hunters think that bounty is like free money so it is very easy to sell the bounty tokens quickly.

It's the presale whales with their cheap coins and bonuses dumping usually. Coupled with very little buyers and you're guaranteed a bad time. Like someone already mentioned, bounty hunters usually are still waiting for their coins/tokens when the dumping has already started.

Yes, the bounty is free money but there are few people holding the coin if the company has potential. We don't know exactly who is selling in the market and who are holding in the market, after distribution many investors start thinking only bounty people are selling the coins for fast money.

That is what it supposed to be. For the ones giving their tokens/alts as a reward for bounties or airdrops, they must face the consequence, beforehand, they must think of that they allocating such percentage could really affect their supply and demand. It's basic, the price drops and increases, nobody to blame, still, everybody must face the consequence.

Well from what I've observed with Ico that does bounties, they always get dump as a result of the bounties offer by the ico,  I don't think bounty hunters can hold a bounty for years as you've stated,  they are in for quick profits irrespective of the price since they didn't invest a penny just their time

I dont think bounty hunters should always be blamed for dumping coins. Even though some do, others you hold their coins for a long time before they sell it.

well, that is one of the factors that caused the dump of new coins to be released in a market. well, but not just bounty hunter, even investors also have a big influence on it. it all depends on the developers who maintain the project they have.

This is the fastest way on earning a free money and we cannot control people to not dump their tokens since some of the project are falling down after that period. And they cannot be blame for the market crash since a lot of people also buy on pre-sale or ICO then dump it right away.

Many bounty hunter, like me, do not sell their tokens right away and prefer to wait.
Therefore, i also think that bounty participants are not responsible for a dump.
Bounty pools are usually only 1% or 2% of all tokens. I do not think that these 1% or 2% are to blame for a dump.
Rather, i think the big whales and investors are to blame.

I think bounty hunters are not the cause why some coins start to dump. If the project is really good and they are showing great progress, why should the bounty hunter start to dump? I always try to find some project's with a good long term perspective, because dumping coins too early is not the way to make money!

Bounty hunter just holds a small number of token. And sometimes it's just 1-5% allocation for bounty tokens.
It doesn't affect too much on the price. The real problem is the market situation and the investor who sell some tokens to get their profit.

There should be no one to blame because every bounty hunter has a different side of the economy so chances are they do not intend to throw away their coins but rather sell early because to meet their life needs.

If I can get my token I will hold it until the launching of their product or the alpha. Yeah bounty hunters are mostly wants to sold their token if it's available in the exchanges. But why they will blame it's just 2 to 3% of the sold token.

Honestly most bounty hunters do sell their tokens once they recieve them thats why they are sometimes to blame causing the dumping of some tokens when listed to an exchange site. Its not like it is not happening but in general thats what they usually do, so dont be mad if they generalize it.

Your right! despite the token Allocation in Bounty Campaign  is just small portion of the entire token supply they are always put on blame to the Bounty hunters its unacceptable how could it would affect in totality  its normal after the ICO there was a dump because lots of ICO investors are selling there tokens for quick return like me, I'm often join ICO and my first move after the listing is to sell a part of it to recover my initial investment. But its true also that some of Bounty hunters are Selling token more cheaper than iCO Investors in early rounds,

there are a lot of factors why the market fall or should i say drop. and you should realized that by now as you get familiarized on this forum. Bounty hunters would more likely liquidate their bounties rate after getting paid some might keep a small portion of it. does it affect the market yes cause there is a buy and sell going on but the effect of it wont cause the whole market to fall.

Its not the bounty hunters who are dumping but rather blame the manipulators that puts fake orders  just to draw down the price, and if some bountu hunters are in panic well they fall on the bait.

Because they get tokens for free, so when they get the money or they need money, they sell it. So this is the reason for dumping the new coin born on the market.

Anytime when their is dump in market most people believe that the it is the bounty hunter that dump, however the dump things happen to both investors and the bounty hunter.  When investors is given 50% bonus on what they buy they want dump the bonus really bounty hunter do dump also after the project. Most people do this because of their experience or some coin they have and the price is really bad in market now but was good before. How dump things is cause by many factor.

Like many others said we can't blamed bounty hunters because of dumping or dropping down of some token's prices. Although it can affect a slightly on the price of a particular token we didn't totally say that selling earlier of the token are the main reason why the token prices will become worthless or unvaluable. However we can say that it depends on what was the potential of some projects are we considered.

It can be, however, there are also ICO investors who are dumping their tokens to get instant money as long as a project reaches a decent exchange and decent price. Some bounty hunters are holders because most are aware that if a project has a potential, they can earn more compared when dumping in a cheap price.

But the sellers are those who participate in the Bounty campaign. They get very little tokens and they sell them to the market for the first time at low prices. So be patient this time and you will be trading at a higher price.

Of course this is a known fact that whenever bounty and airdrop tokens are released there will be a drop in process as most of the  participants will sell them.

If they get the tokens without investing some money for it then the hunters will most probably dump the bounties they get. People know the more valuable coin which is bitcoin, the token they get are going to be less valuable if they hold even in just a minute. Once they get the chacne to dump, expect the price to also sink.

Have you already understood this?
If not, please, examine what is bounty in the context of ICO. Those who participate in bounty as working ants, and there are bounty hunters.

Dumping 1-3% coins/tokens of holders can greatly reduce the price, as most buyers buy by ICO. But I would not blame bounty hunters. As mentioned above, often the listing on the exchange occurs before the payment of rewards, but the price also often falls.

It's not good to blame the bounty hunters for selling their bounty token as they working for that and it's only a little percent from the total supply. The team should be the responsible to take control on the distribution to avoid the dumps.

What about those who participated in the ICO that dump their tokens way before bounty hunters are paid? Bounty hunters shouldn't be blamed for token dumping, besides most of them need the money from the biunty to settle some real life problems.

I completely agree with you, because bounty hunters can not drastically influence the pricing of Tokin. In any case, Kia Whoever thinks otherwise can safely calculate that the total pool for a bounty company is only 2 or 3% for each ico company.

When we do mention or do talk on previous ICO on previous years then this system how actually works where bounty participant and investor do have the same duration or time on where tokens can be given where they can dump at the same time where it would really cause of the price to dump but now the system do change up where most projects do already give out bounty tokens after a week,2 weeks or a month which means the dump isnt on the bounty hunters side but already on investors which is a normal thing.

It's not the bounty hunter because the percentage of coins allocated to the bounty is so small it won't have a huge impact on the price. Usually it is 1 or 2% of the total number of tokens so early investors should be blamed more than the bounty hunter

This could have been true few months back but nowadays there are thousands of participants in the bounty campaigns so the reward per participant has gone down, an year back people were making decent reward, i dont think anyone can really dump the price with small amounts of tokens.

bounty hunter just takes 2-3% from a total of supply. i don't think that really gives the effect for the market. even not all bounty hunters sell their token instantly. as i know, also many bounty hunters which hold their token after bounty distribution.

Yeah I also agree with you.Mainly Bounty Hunter is most responsible for reducing the price of any coin.They sell at lower prices.Because they are desperate to sell the coins as soon as they get the coins.

AFAIK simplest few percentage is going to the bounty hunters.
If there is a dip after the distribution it can be or it can not be the fault of the bounty hunters. What you have to take a glance are the ones traders who invested big cash and has simplest one component to do after it gets listed on any trade and that is they may sell it quick.

There is no doubt that most of the bounty tokens always end up on the exchange in the first few days of distributing it, but there are alot of project recently with no bounty program that the price has dumped significantly, bounty is a easy target for most people to blame for the dump of a project price. I can name 5 projects now that have no bounty program and are currently below the ICO price

Of course bounty hunter also affect to price of token but not so much cause number of token distributed for bounty hunters is just a small amount of total token amount. Tokens price at the moment are really low just because of downward trend so I don't think there is any bounty hunter should be blamed for this dump in price of ICO tokens :)

in any case, Bounty hunters in the end result get the least amount of tokens, compared to the total amount, which in general can not affect the pricing of these tokens.

The advantage for the ICo investors however is that they get the tokens to dump the first before the bounty participants could because most of the time, the team releases the coins of bounty participants the last. Its kinda of a consolation price. Investors wouldn't have to worry though if the project is really good and they can wait for its product, I guess price will be certain to rise.

If a project is good, it really doesn't matter if the hunters dump their tokens right after the ico.
Some coins prices go up after the campaigns so i don't think it really matters much.

Bounty programs are such a small portion of the token allocation that I don't think it makes a significant difference beyond very short term time frames

Bounty hunters need money to help themselves and don't always blame them if they dump their coins into the market as fast as possible. But it must be noted that the allocation to bounty is too small that it can have any real effect on the price of a coin.

Bounty hunters always want to sell fast as I can see the messages about exchange listings and so on. I think it really ruins the value of token and the price goes up then very hard.

I wouldn't blame bounty hunters dumping their coins and tokens for the big price dips. I blame most of it on price manipulation by the big whale investors.

Bounty hunters have nothing to do with it. Everyone knows about this. The fact that they affect something is a joke of investors that some take very seriously.

It's only on your mind but try to surf all of the sections of Altcoin Discussion and see on how many bounty hunters are literally holding their rewards. You may see few of them but majority of them wants to dump it as soon as possible.

Because people who participate in the bonus campaign do not lose anything, so they always sell at lower prices than the investors, so usually early when the end of an ICO project token prices are often cheap or cheap. Bounty houses they dumped their coins.

Bounty hunters are not selling in a rush most of the times. The problem are those big and huge airdrops that some projects are giving out worth of more than millions dollars, that is the main reason.

some are expert dumpers man they go dump everything till the market goes down and even when is going down they still find ways to dump till they blow off the dumpers and the coin becomes shitty and then they are statisfied

I think that's not true. Because the percentage distributed in total supply is very low. If the project is a reliable project, investors would be willing to buy enough to cover the sale of hunters. However, we see that when entering most stock markets except a few ico, there is not enough demand. There are also people who buy and use big discounts before ico. these people are the most influential in my opinion.

One cannot simply mention that bounty hunters were the cause for the token dumping leading to sudden price drop. It all comes from the development side, the bounty dumping contribute to a very little percentage. In a recent bounty the price of the token is expected to go much high as the project is valued 8.5/10, but nothing big happened other than the price going more than 90%lower than the initial price even when the entire bounty hunters were keeping hold of it.

For me we, bounty hunters do it make it but we do not know the future outcomes of the results that we bounty did to me it happen. In every move we do it will affect the value we can not say what will happen onlu predicting basing om past result and wanting to see if that prediction of you do happen.

Everytimewe make choices to make a move as selling, buying and holding it change because we have the supply and demand but we can't truly say what is the exact movement and flow of point.

Have fun!

There are like thousands of bounty hunters and most of them are quick sellers because they consider bounty rewards as their income and not an investment. Bounty sellers do bring a dump but if the coin is legit and is not artificially inflated, then the dump stays for short term and price comes back to original level. Also, the volume plays the big role. If the coin volume is under $100k, then dump would last long whereas a volume above $500k-$1 M can prevent a dump. It is more dependent upon the 24 hr supply of that particular coin and bounty allocation than people selling their rewards. One should keep such statistics in mind while designing and distributing the bounty.

So who need to blame about this if not bounty hunter? I think bounty hunter is the most common reason why the price dump.
Second is investor who join early stage like private sale which get so much bonus from it. I know not all bounty hunter just sell their token immadietly but maybe 50% do it.

Most of bounty hunters sell tokens and only few of them holds tokens. What is the point of holding them most projects will fail and you will hold dirt in your wallet. Holding all tokens because one will maybe have success isn't really good idea, try to sell half tokens and leave half in your wallet.

Do not ever blame bounty hunter if they want to know the cause ask their team whether it is working with extra or not? What makes the value of the expensive tokens is the work of the event-making team itself.

That would be not be correct since a small portion of allocation of token is given to the bounty hunters. What I guess is that token dumping happens when the top one to five holders sell their token that is token dumping existed.

This is the case, not all bounty hunters will quickly sell the rewards they receive. I am one of them. The rewards I receive will hold at least 3 months!

I'm glad to see that most of people here understand situation with token price and bounty hunters in a right angle. I think most of investors tired about all this "bounty hunters dumping price". This is just incompetent ICO founders that can't solve problems or founders that stolen investors money - this is 90% reasons why token price go down and of course market conditions are also affected to the price but not bounty hunters. This is just another fairy tale from founders. Bounty hunters control about 1% of all tokens, sometimes 2-5% and this is insane how so low volume can bring down the price.

Look, some of bounty hunters and taking this as “enough” when the price is at ICO price or atleast it is already has a good price for them, you can’t blame them since it is free coins and the thing is some of bounty hunters badly needed it since not all bounty hunters are rich some of bounty hunters are also investing and I think some of them are holding their coins.

Right! Actually, a lot of community members really push the blame on bounty hunters when indeed the chunk of it all should go to the investors. I have heard some people say why would investors be dumping below ICO price, but the below ICO price we talk about is the final ICO price.

Investors that got in earlier during the first phase of the ICO, got at a far lower price than the final price and even got huge bonus in the process which makes it easy for them to have nothing to lose and most of them got in huge. Bounty hunters simply have just few percentage of the token allocated anyway and that is not something that should affect the price hugely, which makes them a tiny piece of the puzzle. Just the same way whales manipulate the general price of the market, is the same way they do the same once that token or coin hits an exchange. Check out the volume on dump and you will know it is far more than what the whole bounty hunters put together earned.

Confusing on your own words. It is now a blaming game and pointing hand from those insecure individuals who have no skills and capacity to be part of the bounty community. We can’t blame them as we earned a living that is easily be done. I do have collection of bounty coins and dumping is not my favorite thing to do. I wait and hold for a better future.

bounty hunters only hold small amount. i dont think if they cause drop of price
if the project is good, it can recovery easily

maybe some of the bounty hunters are dumping tokens.. but not all bounty hunters are like that.. and also it is not the cause of dump token.. i think the cause of dumping token is because of the ICO.

Why? I'm not sure that bounty hunter causes dumping coins.
they hold only a small percentage of the tokens allocated. I'm not sure that the coin can cause the token price in the market to be a dump

Yeah, some bounty hunters do have a lot of part to play when it comes to tokens being dumped, but if we want to be realistic, bounty hunters actually do have a very little percentage of the total tokens being distributed.

Most of those who dump their tokens are investors who bought in very early and got a huge bonus from their investment and decided to take the quick dump, and most of the bounty hunters who even does not have the idea of the ICO price tend to dump at dips anyway while some of the investors or new investors buy back below the ICO price eventually.

I think they are a reason for it

Yes and No.
Bounty hunters can lead to initial dips as they try to cash out and undersell the market. However, this initial dip always turn into a catalyst for market players - whale - to dump bonuses (which they tend to have a lot of), Why would they do that you ask? Simple, there are a lot of green hands in the market and once the market starts to dip, they panic and cash out, selling back to the whales at cheaper prices.

Most likely

They just want to make cash after all

in order to reduce the dump of tokens  and place a healthy market for tokens right from the first day of launch then it is suggestable to pay bounty hunters in Eth then they can reduce the dumping issue at large

Yes, many bounty hunters quickly sell their coins. But think about it. On the bounty campaign, on average, 1-2% of all tokens sold are allocated. While the funds, the team, pre-sale and sale receive all the other coins. So think, who primarily affects the fact that the price goes down?
And one more thing was correctly noticed by the author. Many bounty hunters participate only in those projects that they themselves consider excellent. And they hold these coins.

What a lot of people are not understanding is that, if the market price ends up getting below ICO price, why is it that the investors still partake in ICOs and not at the end of the day wait for the token or coin to hit the market before investing since it would be dumped. They are simply just the ones dumping at market price, and since they got in cheaper during the first stage of the ICO which they even got huge bonuses depending on how much they bought, the bonus some of the whales got alone will give them their whole capital back with huge profit, when they dump.

No, i think its not the bounty hunter, I, myself is a bounty hunter most of my rewards are still on hold.. And also some of the bounty rewards are delayed and the price of that particular token was dumped before hunters got their rewards

Bounty hunters are small fish to make any noticeable difference in token prices. It is the big whales who move the markets.

Of course, free money can't keep it

Yes. Paying in ETH or other major cryptos is definitely an idea worth exploring.
DAOStack paid their bounty hunters in ETH - imagine my surprised, after shorting out ahead of bounty distribution to reenter at a low price when hunters dump, to discover that they were paying in ETH! Mad scramble back to retake my position and more.

No need to blame, the crypto market is volatile and if there's a dump it will be followed by the crowd quickly.

I think bounty hunters is not one to blame of a dumping of token since a small percentage only goes for bounty hunters. The one to blame for sure is the top 1 to 5 who invested during ICO phase since they hold the majority of the token they are the ones now who will manipulate the market.

More than bounty hunters, the one who have invested when the bonus was high, sell the tokens once it hits exchanges as the price will be way high at the time of listing. Which spikes the panic of sell and bounty hunter follow them.

I noticed that when we are given coins, then after the distribution the price necessarily falls dramatically, especially if the coin is not very popular and has low capital, many coins simply fall to the bottom

Well, the truth is bounty hunters are sometimes are the reason of low price of tokens. Because after receiving  the reward from the bounty campaign, bounty hunters are immediately selling there tokens even though the exchanges are not available or available but a dead exchange.

I can agree, with you because we have seen many bounty participants need quick money after receiving their payments. Sometimes this makes people dump their coin which they got through bounty and this makes to decrease the price even lower.

It's not the bounty hunters who are the reason for the tokens to drop, it's poor advertising of the project, delays in reaching the roadmap milestones and lack of communication with the investors.
Bounty rewards usually make several percent of the total token supply, so why should this insignificant amount influence the price??

There is a financial factor why some bounty hunters selling their tokens. But keep in mind, not all bounty hunters cause of the token dumping, I am sure most of them are tokens holder.
Uh -_- me as the bounty participant very disappointed why most of the bounty hunters always blamed due of that.


What is the campaign you follow? Twitter? Facebook? Telegram? Newsletter? If you are following the part of bounty as I mentioned, of course, you will get the small amount.
Take a look at signature campaign, content creator campaign (blogging, videos on youtube etc.), that will give the huge amount from your work.

i agree. im also a boounty hunter and i myself dont also sell out my coins too early but instead ill just keep them for a long time or until i am already contented for their values.

 although i dont get disapointed when someone says that bounty hunters are the cause of the price dump because i know that that is not true. whales are trully the one that controls the price of the coins and not the bounty hunters because whales are more powerful .

I will give my opinion.
I only have one account for the bounty mission. If the mission rewards me, I immediately sell these rewards. How does a small number of accounts affect the market? I don't understand why people want to condemn bounty hunters!

Not all of them are selling their tokens. I have earned some tokens by participating in bounties, but i have been holding it for more than six months and i would continue to hold it till the market goes in bull trend. It is true that dumping so quickly will not earn you much.

That's why the project owner will not allocate all of their coin for Bounty Hunter.
I'm sure before they divide the percentage of bounty , they have calculate very carefully so I think your statement about bounty hunter to be blame for dumping token is not wise enough !

I think bounty hunter never make dumping price of token because of usually bounty allocation token not more than 10% of the total token. I think investment can do make a dumping price of a token if more than 30% investment sold token together.

well i would say it is very normal, so many developer on ICO had to know that matter very well and provide the way to maintain the value of token price. bounty hunters has invest their time to do their job promoting ICO and even referring investors to join the token sale. But for me, i would prefer to hold a little bit longer not only until get listed on exchange. observing for the roadmap and the asking price on several exchanges.

Very often yes and it's bad for all the investors, I would somehow divide the bounty tokens and the ICO tokens, because so many ICOs just fell down because of selling hunters ..

OP are you in favour of bounty hunters or against it, well from your post it's looking like your are a person with two face. Bounty hunters gets 1 to 5% of total token allocation. So there is no chance they can dump whole project. Also now a day lot of ICOs keep vesting periods for hunters and infact hunters get losses take example of OPEN platform token. Price on exchange was 0.3$ when they launched on the exchange and at the time of distribution it was 0.08$.

Bounty hunters cant be entirely blamed for dumping lowering the price. Its important that the whole community of the coin is mature and has faith in the project they invested in. If the majority of the investors + bounty hunters decide to sell and get fast and small profit this can create a problem for the project.

Bounty hunter something the cause of token dumping i agree.After bounty distribution hunters are try to quick selling their token that's why they create low order selling bid below market rate.It's main fact i think.I observing most of the bounty token a big falling down after distribution.

Overall, less than 5% of the tokens are reserved for the bounty campaigns, and of those 5% there is still a percentage that will hold the tokens, I usually sell a little in the first few weeks that the token is listed and hold the rest to see how the project will develop. This has a passing effect on price.

Maybe some of the hunters are selling their token for quick profits but i believe that some also hold it for a long term goal. Either way i dont see how a 1-5% percent of the total token supply can affect the price of a coin drastically. I still believe that whales are the one dictating the market.

maybe they are, but who is to know really

For what I have seen in the forum it seems most people in the forum sell their coins as fast as possible but this is a good thing, if you like the project and you think it has potential the only thing you need to do is to wait for the bounty hunters to get paid and then to begin to look at the markets, they will crash the price and then you can get the coin at a price lower than at the ico phase.

in any case, on bounty campaigns, an average of 2% of the total number of coins is allocated, Therefore, if bounty companies will sell these tokens on the market, this will not affect the overall pricing situation.

some dump occurrences happen sometimes before bounty hunter gets token. and if we think, the allocation for bounty hunter is very low, almost all ICO allocates to bounty below 5%. I think it's not fair if bounty hunter is accused of being a price-dump maker.

agree, I think it is very unlikely that bounty hunter is a price-dump maker, it is very difficult to make a dump price with an allocation below 5%. and more unreasonable, because the dump occurs when the distribution for bounty hunter has not been done.

We can't bring it out such allegation towards bounty hunters cause that is usually their doings. Once received their rewards, they have to sell it immediately even in low price to have money instantly. But we should not blame them all because some bounty hunters have learned it already. We can't take consideration also with the dev's of a certain coins for their huge participation to help it out from dumping.

You maybe right that bounty hunters is the cause why tokens price usually drops after it hit the exchange but ICOs should make some move also how to prevent this from happening. One way i see is to pay their bounty campaign participants with ETH and not with their ICO's token.

In many cases, I think so.

I would encourage new projects to offer payments in ETH (aren't they generally collecting ETH for the project?) instead of tokens, so the value of these won't fall so much just after the listing or after paying the bounty hunters.

Anyway, it's not always the case, as in many projects the price has risen even just after the payments. So each case is different.

Yes, it is unfair that it would only the bounty hunters to be blame of the price falls of the new token because i have observed many times that even the bounty reward was delayed but still the token price is already declining meaning some of the investors are already selling too because of their token was bought cheap and they have bonuses during the sale so its already a profit for those who will sell earlier after the token was unlock in the exchanges.

if we think the average allocation for bounty is 2% -4%, I think it's very unfair that bounty hunter cause dump, because with that small amount. therefore I think the role of bounty hunter during dump action is not significant

Most bounty hunter sell their token immediately,they always talk about exchange because they want to either convert the token to fiat or btc.
On my opinion, bounty hunters do not really care about the success of the project since they do not invest money but they invest time which is equivalent to money.

This is why you should be patient and pick up cheap coins after ICOs. Even if bounty hunters cannot cause the entire value to plummet, i guess it is an example of the broken window theory, where one action perpetuates a number of other actions

In contrast, I have also encountered myself included some experiences when holding bounty tokens being paid for after a bounty. I held it in 6 months and sold it after the value of the token went down to half of the original price when I first got the said tokens. If I did not sell these tokens then the price now would be 1/10 of the original price and I would have gotten a very low amount. Many tokens do not guarantee good returns after a year or two basing on the experiences and the observations I have made on those ICO's.

The bounty hunters couldn't really be the reason for a huge drop of price ,
For me the bounty hunters aren't the ones who are dropping the price because if you would look closely the allocated token are only 2 percent of the whole project and it couldn't really affect too much in the price.

its can be prevented when distribution of bounty payment is not same month with coin in exchanger, so its upon developer to manage about dump or pump, not to blame bounty hunter

You can't blame people who is trying to find new way of income. especially in countries where there are really low sallaries. This problem can be solved if ICO owner aways make a frozen period when noone ccan sell tokens, that is it

They are often guilty of selling tokens below the ICO price. It doesn't make any sense to me personally as it is inconsiderate of them. Many ICOs  are beginning to realise this and are placing restrictions on bountyhunters selling in the first few weeks of launch after tokens must have been listed

honestly less plausible as well if the blame. Bounty received only a few percents of total sales. so I think this does not affect a lot for the price. and indeed many also prefer to hold back and certainly not the cause completely bounty price into fall.

Actually I think they are part of it but mostly it is the investors who are dumping the price,
Just think about it what if the investors only invest in it to get a profit because of the huge bonus that they give and once it hits it's ICO price they would sell it to get their money back.
So basically investors are also part of the price dump in the tokens not just the bounty hunters because some of bounty hunters are also holding their token.

ICO investors maybe will wait for the programs.

Bounty Hunters are just that, hunter. They hunt bounty for a living and of course will sell all or most of their coins for daily expenses

The problem is not in them! The problem is that many projects go to ICO without having a finished product and most investors are not ready to wait until the project is fully launched here and sell while there is a profit.

not every bounty hunters sell their tokens right after distribution, but i will not argue that most of them will sell directly after bounty distribution by bounty manager. i think bounty managers or developers know that matters properly and provide the way out to solve dumping problem. it is normal most of ICO will face this matter and usually bounty hunters will sell their coins below ICO price.

i think so

Most developers usually do not care and they just let things roll anyway and would rather blame it on the bounty hunters and the market movement.

As far as I am concerned, bounty hunters have very little part to play when it comes to token or coin dump once it is listed on an exchange. These are just some big investors who got at a whooping low amount at the early stage of ICO price dumping their coins pretty fast so as to make some quick profit from it, shake out the weak hands and buy lower later on.

Bounty hunters are usually most of the weak hands anyway which is why I always pity those who sell their coins or tokens below ICO price.

I disagree, they are those who participate in the private sale that dump their tokens once they receive them. Bounty hunters in the other hand have to wait for weeks to months after ICO to receive their token and by then the price would already have fallen down.

Why do you care so much? It's on the contrary advantageous if you like the project, you can buy tokens at a very low price and wait. If the project is good, then its price will still rise despite a dump

I think it stereotypes which appear in every field.  The main problem of token dump after ICOs is bed market condition now and to high bonus on preICO and price.

   These are the standard two ways, who wants to keep their tokens for a long time, and who wants to merge them immediately without waiting for the development of the project, so here it is everyone's business.

Bounty hunters are never the cause of dumps and it is actually funny when I get to see a lot of people saying this.
About very tiny percentage of total tokens issued are dished out to bounty hunters which in most cases the tokens or coin would have been trading already before bounty participants get their share as you said, this is just some whale dump since they always end up getting huge bonuses anyway at the start of the ICO, so pushing the blame on hunters is actually uncalled for.

Dont think 2% of total token selled on ico can get a real impact on token price , perhaps for some days after paying bounty hunters , dumpers can affect price ,  but no more

Bounty hunters is not the only cause for token dumping there are a lot of factors affecting price dumped. Alhough some bounty hunters they are early sellers of the token just to get the profit. Also, investors are contributing for this situation of dumping of price.

Those percentages that give bounties hunters have nothing to do with it. So it is not correct to say and now it is especially relevant because it can be compared with projects that go without a bounty and also fall in price.

wrong opinion ,, the amount of coins allocated for bounty reward is only a small portion so it is unlikely to have an effect on the rise of his coin. if there is any dump effect after the reward distributed its only a temporary time, I think the most important thing is how the developer team actions after the ico project finish, and in any market they are registered

I dont think kthat this is the main reason, because there are a lot of other problems that are making the investors dump their tokens (lost of trust, lack of news) and a lot of other more stuffs that might be important to some investors

If there's no bounty hunter I'm sure project token will not run properly, even the project will not have investors. Bounty hunter has a vital function for promotion so that every investor is interested. And now, you blame bounty hunter is the cause of the token price decreased? it does not make any sense. You should be an ICO developer to know the importance of bounty hunter, compared to people like you.

i think bounty hunter not a dumper, but investors do. they buy many with had big bonus that ico offer to them. and when it release in a market they sell all of they coin, so they have profits with bonus token that they had from bonus sale. that why most coin/token that has just release are dumped.

bounty hunters had the great part when it comes to the value of a particular coin, since they dont care what is the price of the coin because they only care about the fiat that they can earn they will just sell those coin acquired from participating in bounty program whatever the price is.

There are all kind of bounty hunters. Some hodl some sell at the first chance. but a good coin won't be affected by them. It might get a dip early on but then it gets stable. But bounty hunters are a must for any project. Without them, no proper marketing can be done for the project.

Bounty hunters are just aiming to market any project and earn profits for their marketing. They are not interested in the. Working of the project they just need the credits for their marketing work so most of the bounty hunter just prefer exchange their earned tokens with BTC or ETH to keep their funds stable and always from the risky market of ICOs.

Right. not all participants actually do dump on the market. sometimes investors themselves also do it. we as a bounty hunter also see the potential of a token future whether good or not for hold

You have bad English my friend)))
bounty hunters, very often collapse the price of the coin, but not more than 5-10% of the total amount. Since coins allocated to the bounty is not much and therefore the fall will be small. And as for investors, here they can bring down the price of the coin.

A competent project organizes the distribution of the bounty in such a way that the price does not suffer much. If the project is worthy, then it's the opposite for investors to buy at a good price. I think the situation is not critical at all.

I completely agree with you, because if the project is promising, then the coin will be bought to whom. And if we talk about hunters for the Bounty, then the total pool of the Bounty has never exceeded several percent, which generally can not affect the market indicators.

the number of tokens distributed by bounty companies does not exceed 1% of all sold tokens sometimes and very rarely this ancestor is over 3%. On the basis of the above, this percentage even if it is sold in one go or how it will not affect the course. Who?

The studies done by JP Morgan suggest that every dollar bought or sold has a market effect of 32x (iirc) value. So if a bounty made up 5% of the total supply, and half of bounty hunters sold on reception, that would (other variables ignored) drive the price down over 60% If projects are not careful, bounties can crash and it that does happen.

Even bounty hunters will HODL coins and tokens if the project has good future and speculative perspectives!

Most of the bounty hunters hold their tokens for good future prices. But some of them sell immediately to make money for living. But I do not agree that this selling can dump the price of the token, because its amount is too small compared to the total token amount.

Bounty Hunters are smart these days... They are not selling cheap if the project is good enough. Everyone wants to come out with max. profit.

At least for me personally, that isn't the case.

I look for signature campaigns (don't spend much time on airdrops or Twitter campaigns) with a high payout and relatively low exposure for a project that seems to be poised to raise a decent amount. I never hodl the coins I bounty hunt. The exception would be bounty hunting in place of financially contributing to an ICO I otherwise would, but that's very rare, especially with the move towards private crowdfunding this year. Ofc, I'm just one individual, but I imagine many others (especially those who do it full time) or counting dollars, not coins, and locking in dollar paychecks asap.

I don't think bounty hunters are the cause of token dumping. Without campaign, ICOs can not reach enough popularity and people. And also, if a project is innovative, I believe the traders and bounty hunters would not want to sell their tokens.

Bounty hunters selling their payment receive came from the project participation depends on their need in life but yes i agree a lot of them are waiting for the right time to sell their coins from bounty and obviously in the reality need to wait when is the coins have an value to market place before they can sell.

I am seeing many threads blaming the bounty hunters for the dump of the price of the coin, but there are many more valid reasons for that, first of all the price of many coins are overvalued, people buy at whatever the price the developers set, but take the time to look at other projects and their supply of coins and you will see some projects that are asking too much for their coins and you can say from the very beginning the ico price will have to crash, if you identify one of those projects but that you still think has potential in the future then the best thing to do is to wait until the coin hits the exchanges and buy it there.

But wasn't ICO a new way of crowdfunding in first place? People were trying to get extra money for their project. so it should be completely ok to have unfinished project, I guess the problem is more in low communication post ICO period.

well actually for ico without bounty they are a bit difficult to get popular. in addition there is a factor of allocation of funds for this campaign which will indeed make the price increased or just the opposite

Bounty hunters plays a big role in the success of one ICO, without them for sure that project will not succeed. Well, bounty hunters sold their token right away because they need to feel the fruit of their hardwork, for me its ok because if thats a real good project it can bounce high no matter what.

The reason for the price drop is not only the sale of tokens by bounty members. Bounty hunters own very small  %. The main reason is the decline in the market as a whole

Most bounty hunters only distribute 1% -3% per project and it does not affect much on that project. I think the downside of the market and the sell-off psychology of investors makes it worth less. Personally I'm a bounty hunter and I will not sell at cheap rates and only sell when the market has clear signs of recovery as that is when I earned the best profit.

Bounty Hunter, in turn, is a component that causes the prices of traded coins to fall, as they always sell at a lower price than the ICO, after they receive tokens and sell out immediately.

Well you can profit on it2 instead crying here-first find out when there will be distribution of bounties for token that you hold then sell it few days before distribution starts and buy back your coins at 30-50% lower prices after the dump

I think that the reason for the fall is not the fulfillment by the developers of all the promised obligations to investors. And the global decline of the market should also be taken into account

I disagree with the idea that bounties hunters are the reason why tokens and coins get dump. 2% of the tokens are always share within the bounty hunters and I think that is some how little compared to the amount hold by the developers, investors and adviser.  I think bounties hunters should be pay in ethereum or bitcoin and tether instead of tokens.

Many people sell their tokens immediately after they are paid for the work and the price of the token falls. But I think it's better to wait until the price rises and sell after a while.

That is somehow true . There are many impatient and immature users and bounty hunters who just sell off their coins when the coin into some exchange .
That is one of the biggest reason of the coin dumping . But this cannot be controlled as the new users are emerging everyday and they are just scared to face the loss so they sell of right away.

Have you ever wondered how much volume you get to see when the price is dumped compared to the volume the bounty hunters actually got all together in the first place ? You guys should not forget the fact that bounty hunters are just a very tiny piece of the puzzle when it comes to ICO holders.

The private sale investors, investors that bought at a very early stage with huge bonuses are more prone to dump the bonuses to at least get back their initial capital, but we all concentrate on the final ICO price saying some bounty hunters are dumping below the price, but rather, most bounty hunters who are daft enough not to know the ICO price may actually be selling their little tokens lesser than they should be in the first place.

Most of the bounty hunter I think they fear if the price will be increasingly falling. Many people have been saving the coins but the price also failed to go up so they think when the coins already distributed they will immediately sell it. And this is already often the case and make the price too is getting down.

I try to keep coins as long as possible, despite the fact that the price is falling. But it happens that you need to sell coins at a low price. And then I'm sorry that I did not sell it before.

i exactly thinks same. because of bounty hunters sell their award immediately, coins price fell to 1/2 of his io. after that itcant make x2 or more. because investors confidence finish to project

We can't blame bounty hunters selling their bounty rewards at the end of the ICO. Besides, it's one of their top goals after receiving their rewards. But let's not forget that bounty hunters play a big role in the success of ICO because they are the ones that made the project to its publicity.

The bounty hunter is the seller with the lowest price, so when holding the coin you should wait for long time for the bounty sold out and the price will increase.

Contrasting statements, but i got your point. One of the team member of the ICO i promoted, informed me that bounty hunters are the cause of dump of prices of the token, because as they said, they just want money after all., well i disagree on them, because like me, i hold tokens for months to years, and i tried to correct them, that it depends on the investor or any holders of the token, we cannot speculate that all bounty hunters are after the money.

Most bounties gives late reward payments to their bounty hunters. There's been a dumping done even before bounty hunters get hold of their tokens, so I don't get it when they are getting blamed for the decrease of the tokens value.

They contribute to the dumping but it's not the only reason.

Bounty payments in more liquid cryptocurrencies like BTC or ETH would definitely help to avoid the decrease in price when listing.

Anyway, it's more due to the bearish market right now than to the bounty dumpers.

Never. Bounty hunters account for only 1-5% of the total project's tokens. So if all bounty hunters sell tokens, they will not affect the price of the Token after the ICO. Dumping is from buyers of tokens

This question can be answered only after a detailed analysis of who exactly and when sold the coins. Without such an analysis, it's hard to say anything for sure. Yes bounty hanters often sell their coins as quickly as possible. But let's not forget that bounty hunters get only 1-2% of the total pool. Some hunters leave coins for themselves. So I agree with the statement that it's not necessary just bounty hunters to blame for the fact that the coin rate is falling.

there are more bounty hunters thesedays due to the growing number of ico's and the widespread adoption of crypto as well . so i guess if all bounty hunters will unite and sell all of their holdings i think they can make a change to the value of cryptos .

So thats it . bounty hunter can be cause of token dumping . however not all bounty hunters will probably sell or dump their coin after they recieve it because based on the current market today , i think it is better to hodl and wait for the best time to sell .

It is not the total amount they receive that is important but the available supply up for sale in exchanges, if 98% of the supply of the coin is in the hands of long term holders and the 2% that is up for sale comes from the bounty hunters they can crash the price, for example they begin to sell for a price but then another person wants to sell faster so he lowers his price a little bit and then others begin to do the same this starts a process that can crash the price if everyone begins to lower the price in order to sell faster than other bounty hunters even if the amount of coins up for sale are very low.

yes, maybe the cause of the token price goes down is because a lot of bounty hunters are selling their tokens after distribution and many are making bounty their main job so they immediately sell tokens to get the money, but with a lot of selling resulting in prices getting down

I do not think it's worth blaming bounty hunters. Most projects allocate not more than 2% of tokens to hunters, very small amounts fall into the hands of hunters. Most of all, the price drop is affected by bonuses. Because when buying with a bonus, it does not make sense to wait for high prices, people sell immediately as they see a decent price. Hunters can affect the price only with a poor marketing campaign, when there are less people willing to buy than willing to sell.

but I think there is an impact that occurs when the distribution of tokens has occurred, especially if the players bounty get tokens before the tokens enter the market, the price of the token is not fresh anymore

why blame the bounty hunters because they sell their tokens too soon? the allocation given to bounty hunters is very small ranging from 1 to 5% of the total allocation of tokens they have. I think it will not have a big effect on the continuation of a project

Well you cannot blame them because if you are a buyer and you buy what they sell ( which is cheaper ) then its very profitable for you especially when the project is very strong and you can see there is a potential .

I agree with this thread. the token is dumped not because of the selling activities that the Hunters do, because of the Token quotas which distributed to Bounty at most only 5% and even often 1-2%. in other causes maybe Whale investors can do it or maybe a less solid community or indeed from the developers themselves who are less able to keep their token prices

It depends, I am a member of one community on telegram that says bounty hunters are dumping but I agree with this clear statement If the project have solid platform that has usefulness it will surely bring back the price and increase in the future especially if the token has high demand for investors not for bounty hunters.

Bounty hunters are here for rewards but some are believers of the blockchain technology as well as believed that the fortune in crypto is not the day we bounty hunters received the rewards of doing such campaign but some believed that the fortune in crypto is in the near future for about 2 to 3 years and the reason some of us will hold the tokens reward from bounty campaign.

I am one of those who believed that there's a fortune in the future that is why I am not dumping the tokens received from bounties.

That is why I support the idea of others to pay bounty hunters of eth instead of the token of the ICO that they are working for. These instances can't be avoided because they only receive low rewards so even there is a rise, there is really not so much of a difference especially the hunters that is in the airdrops and social media campaigns.

Bounties only consist of 2-5% of the total supply of the proposed tokens.

Further i am always of opinion that instead paying token, eth should be paid to the bounty hunters, though paying tokens increases the number of add but what the heck

I beg to disagree that bounty hunters dumping their hard earned tokens as the sole reason for the dumped price. In fact, rewards are given long after the initial listings and as observed dumping is still evident and only small percentage of the total pool are given to the hunters so how come. If the project is promising, there's no way an investor and a bounty hunter would sell their token below desired price. Hunters are investors also. I am a hunter and investor at the time. And by doing bounties, I get the time and chance to evaluate these projects and I participate to those ICO's with potential.

I think the reward bounty is not too big, the average reward bounty is only 1-2% of the total supply, I think this is not a value that is too big of all total token supply it. but there are also some bounty projects that choose to pay by ETH according to the value of the tokens they get to bounty hunter

I don't think so, because bounty hunters have the right to sell their coins earned in the bounty campaign , because they are working for that, so you should not blame those bounty hunters. The allocation for bounty is also really short, like 1% for the total supply of the project.

I think the hunters do not have a big impact because usually it only has 2% and usually not all hunters directly sell their tokens.which causes dumps are the investors who buy the pre ico time because they get a big bonus then they dare to sell tokens at a price below ico price.

For me the prize hunters are not the ones who drop the price because if you look more closely the allocated tokens are just no more than 3 percent of the whole project and that does not really affect the price. And the prize hunters can not really be the reason for the big price drop

I'm sure the cause of dumping price is not from bounty hunter, this is because bounty allocation is usually 1% and it can not affect the price in the market, mostly dump price because the project is not in accordance with the roadmap so that investors can not wait.

I also sometimes feel confused with the circumstances that exist. bounty hunter, not everything sold and even they can already know that if they hold it will get more profit. Moreover, an allocation for small enough bounty of value entirely. so if it's too blame bounty hunter I think is not the right thing.

Investors get tokens first, for them the right of first receipt, they therefore buy tokens in order to have income from them. Some of them want their income right after the ICO, others hold, believing in the development of the project. But in any case, the weather on the exchange is done exactly not bounty hunters, who don't have more than 2% of all tokens in their hands.

Well, may be may be. But projects also spend a lot of tokens for non bounty campaign marketing. And people who earn it (I mean channel owners, popular blogers etc) may  locking in dollar paychecks asap. Also BMs get huge amounts of tokens and fix it in liquid crypto asap too. Not only poor bountists reason why tokens dump. Dev dont respect their own projects and spend tokens like a kings on coronation ceremony =)

Why does everyone try to blame bounty hunters for falling tokens prices? In my opinion, if the total pool for a bounty company is only 2 or 3%, then eventually the appearance of such a volume of coins on the stock exchange will not provoke a price drop.

Bounty hunters can not be to blame for the fact that after listing for the first time on the exchange of new tokens, these tokens are rapidly falling in price. I think that investors are more to blame for this. They buy tokens with significant bonuses and it is quite profitable for them to immediately sell them at the price of ICO. At the same time, head hunters own only a few percent of released tokens and when they receive them in their wallets, then often the price of these tokens has decently dropped.

I do not see the problem if the token you are buying is good you can take advantage of it and buy more of it when the price crashes and if you are sure the price is going to go down then you can take advantage of this and instead of buying at the ico you can buy after the coin hits the exchanges, if you do that you can get even better profits than most investors.

I think only part of the reason. but if a good idea of projects. I do not see any problems. There are projects, bounties receive tokens after 2 weeks - 2 months. But the token is still down. What does that prove? It is not misleading or biased but it is a fact from investor psychology this year.

in any case, the accusations of Bounty Hunters are unfounded. The fact is that the company's total pool of Bounty accounts for an average of 2% of the total number of tokens and such a small number of coins can not influence the market.

I do not find any justification for the continuous criticisms that have been made against the supposed responsibility of the bounty hunters in the frequent fall of the prices of the tokens as soon as they are listed in the exchanges.

If we take into consideration that the percentage of tokens usually reserved for bounties does not go beyond 1% or 2%, that number of tokens seems too small to expect it to move to the market in a significant way even in the case that all the bounty hunters agreed to sell all their tokens simultaneously.

Therefore, I believe that developers should put more effort into their projects so that investors consider that it is really worth holding them in the long term, and do not use them only as instruments of short-term speculation.

It is true that therefore with the bounty we can all get a free shop even though the numbers are small but very profitable

i dont think also that bounty hunters are the cause of token dumping.. i believe its the investor as they want to get their money back to invest in another project

Both of the bounty hunters and the investors can responsible for token price dumping because many nembers of the two groups want quick profit. I'm one of the bounty hunters but I've been holding my tokens even it is already listed in the exchanges because I believe that these tokens has the potentials. Some of these dumpers may regret their decision to sell their tokens when the price go up several weeks later.

You have a contrasting post OP so I will just answer them both.

I have been a bounty hunter for a year and in my experience, bounty hunters are ONE of the dumpers aside from the investors who want to gain their profit. Bounty hunters want to get their profit too so they will sell their coins immediately causing the price of the token to plummet.

How can you be so sure that the lots of bounty hunters hold their coins?? You are one of the stupid bounty hunters too who holds their coins that they get from bounty campaigns. You know how a token's price works as they list it on an exchange so don't be stupid to hold their coins and hoping that it will rise. Would you say a bounty campaign whose price didn't plummet after listing it on an exchange??

Lets calculate bounty hunters will receive about 1-2% of all circulating tokens. How they can cause such damage to a project with only 1% of tokens? The problem is in passivity of post-ico projects.

I think bounty hunters cannot be blamed in this case, because they work to get paid, if they already get tokens then they will sell it, and I think the tokens that are distributed to bounty hunters are only 2-5%, so even though they sell it all it doesn't will shake the market.

Yes, you are right i don't know they keep on saying about the bounty hunters because they are allocating 1 or 2% of total supply but if you compare with the investor's bounty people are holding the coins compared to investors. Even i am holding the coins for more than 1 year some time until the real developments will start.

Investors would definitely not sell their tokens if it's below ICO price, but bounty hunters can because they don't invest anything to own a token.
They are somewhat the reason but the blame should not be on them, it should be on the team as they are the one managing the project, if they list it on liquid exchange, it would not dump.

There are 2 kind of investors, who hold until higher than ICO price and there are some people who get cheaper price when join presale of an ICO. I think that second type usually short term investor that will sell their assets immediately and change to other project.

One thing to consider is volumes. Often they are very thin with newly listed coins coming out of an ICO. If a coin raises $10 million at $1 a coin, and then starts trading and drops to $0.1 per coin, then this isn't necessarily dumping - if volumes are only $10,000 per day, then what it means is most people are holding, and a tiny minority are dropping the price, and it also means that even though you can pick up the coins for cheap, you can't pick up many without exhausting the order book.

Token dumping can be caused by anybody. It means that there is not enough demand to sustain the sellers.
Dumpers could be the creators of the coin, the exchanges, the investors, bounty hunters or all of them. You can't blame bounty hunters as they are surely not the only sellers. And some don't sell their coins.
Bounty hunters also have a very limited number of tokens. An average of 4-5% of the tokens.
The project can only blame themselves about not having enough buyers.

I think this depends on the case, there are indications that bounty hunters can destroy the price of tokens when they are just exchanged, but the most important role is the team and developers how they can get around and have a strategy so that tokens are not destroyed when they are exchanged.

Crypto is a free market and there is no law compelling anybody to hold or sell their token.
However the following set of holders should be blame,  the exchange websites because they also dump to bring in some cash.
2, the project developer of course you already understand that.
3, those that purchase token during presale with high discount.
4, bounty hunter these people have the lowest blame because they all share between 1-5% of the token supply.

Maybe they shouldn't blame the bounty hunter. We can see that the token allocation for bounty hunters is very small. And you can also check the allocation of the biggest tokens for what part. We cannot avoid price reductions and you must be patient because I am sure if the price will rise again.

Indeed, with a very small number of tokens when the project began to distribute to bounty hunters, it was not enough to create major damage to projects, agree that bounty hunters always sell token immediately when it is listed but when compared to the total quantity provided by the project, it is only a small number. Therefore, the reason for dumping token can only be caused by the project and the investors in that project, unprofessional planning and management, combined with greed of investor, that creates dump, don't constantly blame bounty hunters on this issue, take an objective view

a small amount of total circulating supply, but if the volume is quiet little than the damage caused will be bigger. Actually, it's not right to put only bounty hunters on a blame because project's team and investors are also involved in it. Why don't we blame other people for not buying this token on the market and make the price raised up?  ;D ;D ;D

in my opinion this is indeed a matter that has become a debate about bounty hunters because until now it is still a conflict because they become a loss to the dump that happened

Recently, I have only observed such a tendency, when the bounty hunter pays their rewards a few weeks after the wall or something like these rules.  Based on this, it is generally impossible to accuse the participants of the Bounty companies in the dump.

Yes, and I think all parties also understand that, but the problem is why this kind of topic is always discussed over and over again, even though it should not need to blame each other.

Maybe some of bounty hunters sell their coins, but also there are some who hold the coins for long, but i also think if the % of bounties is small this should not affect the price for long time even if they sell their coins.

It all depends on the bounty hunters themselves. Many of them are certainly not interested in the development of the project and sell tokens at the first opportunity. But there are those who do more in-depth research.

 

If you would look closely, most bounty pool ranges from almost less than 1% to 5% of the total supply of the project which means it's just a little portion of the total supply. Unlike pre-sale investors where they get a huge amount of bonus or discount, which most whales or big investors buy. So, I think people should stop blaming bounty hunters for this and lock-up pre-sale investors or huge token holders token if they want to avoid token dump.

Most of the percentage are selling their tokens once the token listed to the market and that is really true. Im not saying all but yah they have bounty hunters are hding their tokens for longterm but only few so it means the number 1 cause of falling token price is the bounty hunters and we know all that because we know how bounty hunters do.

at this time they were one of the people who were blamed when a price dump occurred after the bounty distribution. but the team should have anticipated when things like this would happen to be able to increase traders like contests

of course the cause of the dump is not because the bounty hunters sell their tokens, we all know the bounty allocation is only 1-3%, so with such an allocation it will not affect the dump of a coin and actually more bounty hunters hold their tokens rather than directly selling them to expect higher prices and profits.

Agree with that, team involvement will be greatly appreciated if they could take an action ahead of time but somehow they are focusing on how to increase their market sales as their first priority. And as always to happen that tokens will drop its price once it goes into the market and sadly the team won't give ways to make it recover to prevent it from dying.

in my opinion regarding the problem of dumping made by bounty hunter, It true , because most bounty hunters sell tokens without using target  no matter how cheap the price is they still sell ,origin to be money and that is the reality that I have seen now

The team has to make a solution to that as they are the one providing the reward, so bounty hunters can sell to enjoy their reward.
If they protect the interest of the investors, they should not be the price dump, either they will delay the distribution or they will look for a high volume exchange to list the coin.

For now some bounty reward delayed in distribution in order to keep the price. And it is proven that price still down even bounty hunters not get their reward yet. You are right, it is all depends on dev which strategy that they do with their tokens. Because bounty campaign help them to promote their project too.

I think their bounty hunters are more patient because the Altcoin they have must be held for a long time. Price declines do occur in all coins. If they have a solid development team, I think the price of coins will definitely rise again. Now the market price is very good and I think this will have an impact on ICO coin prices.

I guess they are right. Most of the bounty hunters immediately sell their tokens once they have it in their wallet. Why? Simply because they badly need money. Although there are still hunters who prefer to keep their tokens, still they are in few numbers. Nowadays, developer prefers not to distribute immediately their token to prevent dumping their coins.

Bounty hunters were not the only cause for the dumping of tokens. Project worthiness is much into consideration along with the continued development. The dumping of tokens happen with bounty hunters when they release it and gets listed to the exchanges. The bounty hunters suddenly leave it for trading, while this is now delayed as bounty participant distributions were delayed after a long time period. Upon this bounty hunters were not the only cause for the tokens dumping.

Bounty hunters are not the major problem when the price drops, that is my insight before but if you see, the least percentage of the allocation was allocated to the bounty program usually 5% of the budget meaning how bounty hunters move the price downward so drastically?

Really? They are not. Do you even care to check on telegram? Most of them are just bullshitting about the price falls down and they don't even care to help the coin recover its price. They are saying when exchange, why price down and other shit.

Well every ICO has their own stories same as the hunters but what i see here is Biunty Hunters has only small percentage of the total supply so I cannot see reason why they need to be blamed?

This was only a scape goat of this shit developers to put the blame to the hunters but the truth is they are the one who must be blamed upon all this failure

not every project that delays the bounty distribution is the factor, i see there is a bounty that has high rewards and they distribute the bounty rewards on time but the price still got dump in the exchange

for me its the investor that usually cause the price of the coins got dump, because if we invest in the ICO we will get a bonus and from that bonus, the investor usually just sold all the bonus to get the profit

Perhaps you have given the right direction for the idea that the developers take the blame for losing the attractiveness of their project among investors, as well as other users of cryptocurrency.  If the price falls, then everyone is looking for someone to blame, but no one thinks that the team is working poorly on the implementation of their ideas.

I think that the self-respecting Bounty Hunter will not participate in a bad Bounty company.  In any case, the majority of participants in the Bounty companies carefully select projects, although under current conditions this is quite difficult to do.  And yet, if the Bounty Hunter respects his work, he will not sell his Reward at low prices.

I do not think the blame is on bounty hunters, but on the project team and its developers, Because, as I see, there is a small proportion of the total tokens distributed to the bounty of any project, This is the fault of the developers and the project team because of their slow development and failure, Many people work in the bounty to make profits and they do not care if selling their tokens will lead to a token dump or not, The project team had to take this into consideration.

right indeed not all bounty hunters sell when the coin is listed on an exchanger, I myself prefer to wait for a longer time than the coins from participating in a project's bounty and until now I still hold coins from the bounty results last year

it cannot be denied that there are many bounty hunters who make sales quickly but they are also not wrong because it is their right to be able to get wages from the results of hard work on the project

The developers should rather be blame and not the bounty Hunters because they are one who want free service. Many bounty project are out to scam investors as we have seeing over the years in the crypto currency community.

because those developers are too greedy and they don't wanna spent their money to create a good partnership with the exchange site. The developer must be a party that must have blamed. as long as the dev think liquidity is very important and the dump will not happen dude.

Again they become troubled by the community or team prices that have decreased. but in my opinion the wrong team is because they should have thought about this. maybe by holding a trading competition is one of the problems that can be overcome by a dump. because it makes the attractiveness of traders increase. we cannot blame the bounty hunter. regarding sales or not is their right.

It's not that simple to be honest, even if the token get listed on exchange, the price can also dumping too.

There are many reasons why the price of token dumping and yes one of the is because of bounty hunters, because as people know, bounty hunters always sell their token directly after they received the tokens from bounty.

I agree with you, we cannot blame the bounty hunter
Because usually the price of tokens or coins that are DUMPED at the beginning of the market entry is caused by:

• A less strong community
• Too many bonuses are given to investors during ICO

and also usually the bounty token is distributed after the price of the token is DUMPED

I believe in this. Who the hell will hold their tokens and hoping that their coin will increase after listing on an exchange? Maybe some stupid bounty hunters will do it but in my experience, I didn't see any token that increased its price after listing on an exchange.

To be honest, its not only the bounty hunters that causes the price of the token to plummet but also the investors and the team themselves too. Maybe we can't see it but we know that aside from the bounty hunters who want to get their profit, the investors and the team want to get some profit too so they will sell the tokens immediately after listing on an exchange.

Bounty hunters are always blamed, why is that? it seems that not all bounty hunters throw away the tokens they get when they enter the stock exchange.

Remember investors who get bonuses reach 50% of their tokens purchased when token sale? they could just throw the bonus tokens they got at the beginning of launching on the stock exchange.

The fact is that today almost all projects have a drop in prices for their coins after listing, and even an investor who bought tokens with a 50 percent discount is not profitable to sell coins immediately on the exchange.

Exactly.  That is why the majority of the investor went shopping immediately on the stock exchange, and did not buy the company during ico.  and there already appeared a new concept for the development of new IEO projects, which in any case will improve investor confidence in their investments.

This is a very sensitive issue, because if so, I have usually been in projects where they have had a very large community, where the moment came when the project was on the cusp and when the developers and creators of the project started doing things bad with the community, the massive dumps began and it was so much, that today they have not yet been able to raise in price, reached almost 20USD the currency, and now it is in less than 1 USD.

Now the projects impose some rules to avoid the dum of the bounty hunters, because many times the projects do not have liquidity to support the massive dump, in the case that there are not many investors, the ones that can be united in a great way are the bounty hunters that are ready to do the dump at any time, that is why they have an impact.

I dont think bounty  hunters are always to blame when it comes to token dumping.  The reward for bounty is only 1%  of the total amout of token so how can they say that bounty hunters always start the dump. Token sale, advisor and for the team has the most percentage of the token.

In my opinion, it is not fair to accuse the participants of the Bounty company in the total fall in prices for tokens after the listing, although this does not happen without their participation. First, pay attention to the entire cryptocurrency market, because if you follow the price level until the end of 2018, prices fell on all cryptocurrencies, including the most rated ones. So what can we say about new projects in this situation? Of course, new coins did not withstand competition. Secondly, the total sale of all cryptocurrency and withdrawal, for example, Bitcoin and ethereum in Fiat, provoked price cuts, and therefore investors and participants of Bounty companies, to return at least the money spent, sell new counters for Ethereum and Bitcoin, which reduces the value of these coins. I think that there are a lot of reasons for the fall in prices for tokens and here we need to understand comprehensively, and not blame the participants of the Bounty company individually. Today, investors in the cryptocurrency market are not the most deceived people, because participants of the Bounty companies have no protection and their work today is not appreciated. Therefore, Bounty Hunters are also victims, not evil.

Well, the bounty allocation is very small in comparison to the total supply availability. The token sale and the rewards were entirely different from the bounty. Bounty is provided for the work done by the users for the promotion of that particular product or project. These days after certain time period the bounty tokens were distributed, upon which it is true that bounty hunters weren't the reason for the dumping of the price of the tokens.

In my opinion is not totally bounty hunters fault but bounty hunters is also one of the reason why token dumping. Even the total coins from bounty is only 1% but if all 1% being sold, it will makes the price fall for sure. Advisor and the team has more tokens true, but obviously they are not the one who sell the token.

I disagree with this, because if the price is dumped by a bounty hunter who sells his token, it means that the project is weak, if the project is strong/good, no matter whether the dump comes from a bounty hunter, the project and the community will remain strong to hold sales by bounty hunters.
the point is, if the bounty hunter sells tokens and the price drops, that means the project is weak

Bounty hunters is part of the success of the crowdsale, of course they will have to enjoy the reward given to them.
If the team does not want the price to dump, they have to make the right action, either to delay the payment or just find a liquid exchange.
Some just allow the price to dump and make some investors upset, but if investors really understands the potential, they can wait and hold, and even accumulate.

You really put it correctly, lead really there are a lot of reasons that influence the pricing beckons from the New projects, among which, of course, the participants of the Bounty companies.  But it seems to me that all this excitement around the association of Bounty Hunters has certain goals.  Probably they want to specifically reduce or destroy this type of activity.

in my opinion, maybe it's true that Bounty Hunter made the price of a new token listing dump. But the price dump was not significant, it was only for a moment. Which makes the price of coins dump, I think it depends on developers and communities. Prices can drop significant because the product results from the project do not match with the main goal, or community investor not solid because don't trust the developer. don't forget general market conditions also have the potential to affect dump prices.

Some of the bounty hunters can be partly blamed for a token dumping because these people want a quick profit. Investors of the token during its ICO can also cause a dump in the price of the token by selling some of their coin after it listed in the exchange for thefirst time. The bounty hunters are also the first one to complain of very low token price when it is listed in the exchanges. I'm also a bounty hunter but if the token has a bright potential, I'd rather hold it till its price go up.

this is how the team and the developer have a strategy to deal with each dump situation after entering an exchange.
of course not all bounty hunters will release their tokens after entering the exchange. so I'm not sure this is the only problem.
the lack of experience of the team and the developer is the main factor. yes, in my opinion

Not all bounty hunters will sell everything at the Exchange, because I'm sure if the token has been entered on the Exchange, everyone has the right to sell and buy, so this is normal, investors can also cause prices to fall because they can find profits to buy again at low prices Dan if it is sold again it will get a lot of big profits

And the amount thay bounty hunter's accumulated from the ico project is just a tin part.of the whole tokens/coins so why always blamed the Hunter's?

We are only working to help the project at the same timw to earn some amount in exchange to our work and effort so please stop blaming the bounty Hunter's instead help us to get right value because in many instance bounty hunters has been scammed by the team itself by paying smaller from the promised payments

Bounty hunters get most of the blame but when you look at the data it does not make sense, the amount of tokens bounty hunters receive is very small compared to the amount of coins whales have at their disposal, so if a coin dumps after it hits the market it is most likely because a whale is selling his coins and this makes everyone to try to get out of the market as well.

I do not think this thought is right. If the projects want to make a promotion, they should take action. Besides, if the price is dumped with 1-2% of the amount sold, the project is already weak.

But this happens in most cases. A few percent of the assets in the market are enough to break prices. Repeatedly seen many sales orders and two or three buy orders. There are just no buyers in the market.

yes you are right the bounty hunter is always blamed for causing the price to drop,even though not all bounty hunters will sell their tokens quickly I think many choose to save and wait for prices to rise, and the number of tokens for bounty hunters is only a small part of the token sold.

Actually, if the bounty hunter has got their payment, then if they sell it, it is their right. we must not blame him. Maybe what we need to blame is the person who sells the coin below the market price so that a Dump occurs, because I see this, that is, a person with a lot of coins then makes a sell order at a low price  >:( . what is important for them is being able to make money.

In 2017 this type of inquiry was acceptable, but currently we are at a time when the actions of bounties hunters are insignificant. The market is more professional than 2 years ago!

i do believe that 35% of dumping is due to bounty hunters who are selling their token as soon as they got the opportunity, but i think if the platform is good, there is no reason for us to doubt the sudden bear market instead take it as an opportunity to invest.

sometimes, bounty hunters only hold 2-3% of the total tokens that exist. well, although it can be said that the hunter bounty is the cause, I think dev will easily cover that up. well, I think investors are also influential. many suggest that bounty hunters get paid using ETH, or other altcoins, only a few do that.

Anyway, Bounty companies are really in demand even today, when the market is in poor condition and no one can predict the real results of icon companies.  But it is necessary to advertise projects and participants of the Bounty company are working on it, fulfilling all the conditions.  But in order to be objective, all the same, Bounty Hunters in some cases abuse their capabilities, which in some cases negatively affects new projects.  Although in fact you are right.

To some extent yes. After working for several months for a project, when they collect payments, they seem to convert the tokens to fiat to solve their personal need but other times, private and presale investors and team who recieve huge amount off bonuses  causes dump too

Some hold for long time when some don't. It's simple, in a market, you can't expect same behavior from all of its participants. There's nothing to blame them. I would say its DEV team who didn't give a fuck to the bounty amount and made it available to everyone.

That's the other factor that has to be seen than putting the blame on the bounty hunters.

Bounty hunters in total does not receive a huge amount and even if the majority would sell, it would not cause a big dump because it's just a small amount in the supply. The team should not list the project if they can ensure volume, but if they allow, no one should complain as it's just temporary if the project is legit.

It was a very good period for bounty hunters. Bounty gains may increase with the start of the bull season again. Hope to have good days again.

I also hope so, I am bored with ICO scams and other frauds.
by the way, the bounty hunter is not the cause of the price of the token broken, and I am disappointed with that comment. Investors and teams are responsible for the circulation and price of tokens.

Bounty hunters are working for projects. They're promoting. They do research about the project. I think they have very positive work for the ecosystem. It doesn't make sense to blame them.

Bounty hunters should not be blame once there is a token dumping on new projects , the  persons to blame are those who are greedy and  wants to get immediate profit even they will only get small amount.

That is just a traditional reason why tokens dump. They will blame bounty huntere wherein time and effort were invested to their projects. What they didnt know is that some of them are investors as well. They could also blame those investors who got a lot of discount and will dump it to get their capital. But see we cannot also blame the team since there are also bounty hunters who will dump just for few bucks.

yes, the dev responsible should make a buyback to prevent the price decline caused by the bounty hunters who sell their tokens.

buy back is not the solution in this case. when there is a buy back, the investor will do the same thing, even that can invite other losses. A dump may be caused by a bounty, or an investor, but a dump that occurs in the long run can also occur because of the developer. the most important thing is product development, and if you are worried that bounty hunters will make a dump, they can provide other payment alternatives.

It's impossible, usually the bounty hunters only get the largest share of 5% of the total supply/total sold coin, and I'm sure that the investors who get the bonus at the start made a dump, but I don't blame them, this is the importance of capital from devs. to keep prices from dropping.

Most of the times, project owners blame bounty hunters for token dump which isn't always the case. Some project doesn't have what it takes to run a project, some will list in low volume exchanges, no good team members etc, all these contribute to token dump

I think the developers are the most responsible for this, they get free tokens, and if they sell at the beginning of the listing, of course they are lucky because they usually have more than 20% tokens, so I am very surprised why anyone thinks the bounters or investors is the cause of token dumping, they are actually members who have been harmed by the developer.

Actually not all bounty hunters are dumper because many of them are holding their token for a good price. And how you can sold it many of are selling their token in low price. So as a holder you will wait a good price and time to sold what you have. And I think some always hurry to sell are always lose.

Neither listing of token on a low volume exchange nor bounty hunters are responsible for token dump. Although, listing of token on high volume sometimes boost investors trust but the main reason behind most token dump are the teams (i.e strategy they put together to ensure the success of the project ) and the early miners of a certain project.

I think that a lot of actors in the cryptocurrency market are interested in blaming the names of Bounty Hunters for the fall in coin prices.  Thus, it covers not only the lack of professionalism of the team, but also the low demand for the project in society.

I don't think it's entirely a bounty hunter's fault, if indeed the ICO project is indeed good, I don't think it will have too much impact if the bounty hunter sells his tokens

Bounty hunters couldn’t be blamed as the cause of token dumping. A lot of them keeps their tokens as a long investment too. Also my relate bounty hunters that I know didn't sell their tokens so quickly after their task was over.

Sometimes, bounty hunters are also investors. I also invested in Current project and also promoted their projects. I am a young investor, I only have $ 200 to invest and I want to receive more tokens and force me to participate in the bounty program.
In fact, a good project will know how to regulate the price and not make the price of the token reduced when the bounty is distributed. Like CPT and OATH are doing, they really have great strategies.

They are the ones being blamed by the team as the weak support from their projects, if bounty rewards which only a small portions of actual funds can dumped the value of the coin what more to expect if the large portions will be dumped and sold by the team behind it.

if the team considers the bounty hunter to be blamed by the occurrence of a dump, then why do they make a bounty for the bounty hunter if they are afraid of their coins going down? I am completely unsure because the bounty hunter also works and needs money and not all bounty hunters make the decision to sell fast the tokens or coin they get.

well, maybe some people blame bounty hunters for selling large quantities at the same time, and of course it causes a dump. but, I think that dev can overcome that because of the total of all coins, the bounty hunter only holds 2-5% of the coins. however, not all bounty hunters sell their assets, so, I think we cannot blame bounty hunters for low prices in the long run.

The first impression of the people is very important, even if the project is good but it started with a dump, it might affect the buying decision of investors. If the project is really good, the team will ensure that there will be no dump when it's release for trading, and even if bounty hunters have to dump, they already anticipated that and made the right measures to control the dump.

but now you alone can see is there a project that has the strength of the team like that? as far as I know, only XUC coins and project credits can make their prices stable and even increase when the bounty distribution has just been done.

in general, this is all idle chatter about Athens Hunters for the Bounty in a fall in cryptocurrency prices.  To date, the cryptocurrency market is all in poor condition and all cryptocurrencies have very low indicators.  So nothing to blame the participants of the Bounty campaign for all sins.

I personally assess the cause of dumping because investors sell bonuses and some bounty hunter sell at low prices so in this case the bounty hunter can't be completely wrong

It depends on the tading volume.
For example bounty tokens like QuickX or Populous with trading volume in million of dollars are not affected because trading volume is much higher than bounty allocation.
But coins that are dead and inactive are affected, thanks to no volume a big dump is highly possible.  :D

It's important to consider volumes. Many people who bought in at ICO will be looking at the long-term, and not even put their coins on exchanges.

If a coin drops 90% from ICO price, but the only coins being traded are those from bounty hunters, then really it would be impossible to build up much of a dollar profit if there are only a small number of orders to fill. So for low volumes, the 'price' on an exchange isn't representative of the worth of the project.

If there is a total supply of 1 million tokens, and the exchange has only one order of one token priced at $1, this means the marketcap calculation is $1 x 1 million tokens = $1 million. Which is obviously nonsense. If that order gets filled and someone else puts on an order of 1 token priced at $2, it doesn't mean the project has now gained an extra $1 million in cap.

If it is a big project and has a trading volume of over 100 million USD, the bonus distribution will not affect much the value of that coin but to find a good project is really difficult because no any project can be listed at the top exchanges. Today Harmony project is making a lot of people happy and if bounty hunters can be paid today, they may be able to sell high prices.

Not only the bounty hunters are blaming on selling some coins early, Actually some traders also are doing that in the meantime. But all i see some topic are about those bounty hunters sell the coins early, Ill think they dont want to hold for a longtime.

if in my opinion don't blame the hunter's bounty if the token has been entered in the stock exchange, then all who hold the token have the right to sell and buy because everyone wants to benefit all the investors can also sell early and buy at cheap prices with a double profit.

Bounty hunter has never been the cause of dumping of the token. This because they hold maximum a 5% number of token of total token subscribed. But, 80% of the company is only offering 2% for the bounty hunter. And this token amount is distributed a number of hunter say; one thousand, 5 thousand or even 10 thousand. So, they never be the cause of token dumping even they want.

Not only bounty, but there are indeed many factors that make prices drop dramatically after the initial listing on the exchange.

• Sales Bonus

• Low Market Volume

• Market Conditions

Besides these 3 bounty factors can also cause why prices have decreased. and there should be a solution from a team such as making a trading competition to reduce the dump

yes, you are right, not only because the bounty hunter is the reason for the price decline that occurs when the initial token is registered in exchange. the reason you mentioned is the right reason and I think we all accept it because we also see the role of investors and traders in making price stability in the market.

They tend to blame bounty hunters where in fact most of the early investors did it. Hunter may not be a big impact depending on their allocation of budget for the participants, but the investors play more of a big role especially those who receive or earn from early investor bonuses.

Most bounty hunters are not really interested in holding their coins for the long term, in fact I will be surprised if they knew anything about the project they were promoting but to blame them and think they are the reason the price goes down is a mistake, most bounty hunters simply do not have the power to make the price to go down and anyone thinking otherwise is mistaken.

Sometimes, they dump, sometimes they hold.
I think a lot of experienced bounty hunters after promoting projects long enough usually go with their guts on what is worth keeping and what should be done away with.
I've met a bounty hunter who purchases more of any coin with a viable use case (https://www.ecomi.com/?utm_source=ecomilx) or one backed by a legit fund.

Often volumes are very low for new coins, which means that although bounty hunters cause the price to drop, the order book is very thin, so the price you see on the exchange isn't really the true price as you wouldn't be able to buy a larger number of tokens without making the price increase considerably.
