The buyback mechanism really have good effect on dumpers trying to dump their tokens ,lately two projects I promoted started buying back their own token from bounty hunters or big whales who wants to sell off and move on ,the first project is miracle tele project and the buyback is already on going ,the second one is about to start and the name is CHELLE Coin, buying back tokens is a brilliant idea what do you guys think?

Yeah it is awesome thing to save price to dump to the floor while providing an exitto people who need cash, i think every project should offer this option especially when they have raised decent funds then it should not be an issue for the project.

Well, it works for the stock market.

But it's not really a healthy way for a coin to maintain its health. Nor even possible for a lot of crypto projects; not every dev has enough to buy back their coins like that.

It looks like the buyback is not yet started and can you confirm about this? i watch the telegram group recently and it's still on the distribution phase.
Buyback is not always brought the price to the moon or prevent the dump of what is really needed was the liquidity to support the buyback program. It's not even enough to use buyback method without any buy support.

i don't think it solve the problem of dumping, i have seen a project claiming to be carrying out buyback program yet price of tokens continue to go to the bottom, maybe because it was in a bear market period the buyback was carried out because at that moment it was not reflective on the price, i think buyback plus real product to create demand will affect price positively.

Buyback goes a long way  to stabilise coin prices. Big platforms always employ this method to restire asset value. Usually they buy back and burn to prevent it ever going into circulation again. Generally, any platform with this mechanism like Binance is more attractive to investors than the rest

BuyBack is good for Short Term
In my opinion it's just a bad strategy for the Long Term.
Develop the main product of project is actually better way to support the price and make it stable or even grow up (if it's not stable coin / token that backed-up with assets)

Having a buyback mechanism is really a good thing for companies to consider. Of course they could buy back in a way that it will not be a hustle for them financially specially if there are many bounty participants who want to avail of that buyback mechanism. Unfortunately not all bounty projects are like that so many tend to just hold their tokens or coins for a long time.

I will so aggree if every project use this option because not only does it make investors comfortable without worrying about losing, bounty hunters will also be happy because coins that they get are have price according to the raw price, so they also get results that are commensurate with the work.

this is great strategy from the project team to prevent the dumping actions from the bounty hunters
but, if the price still down and below the crowdsale price, thats mean the dumping actions is not coming from the bounty hunters buddy
because not all bounty hunters will sell their rewards earlier, few of them will hold their rewards if they believe to the project

We can't rely on it, it is a useless thing. Can you imagine when you bought even for some people who agree with what you say but some people over there only wait the price is increasing and they will sell it, you will get nothing from it. The good project/token didn't need need these thing, but it will rely on the potential of the project itself. Investor will find it and they will think that the token price will increase when the alt season comes. To promote some tokens that you hold by yourself is not good idea, you have to find some interesting news about the token and shere it in this forum or in other social media.

If the project makes a ransom, then you should not sell it. The fact is that maybe they will greatly grow up and such large projects will regret selling it. Tele is a good project. I am sure that those who tried to arrange a dump truck will regret it.

Yes, you're correct implementing a buying back and burning tokens plan will help projects solve the problem of dumping but the challenge is that most of the funds projects get from their token sales these days are barely enough to sustain it to a beta stage or a finished product.

I think the buyback is very important but it must also be considered in the state of the market itself. because it is the market that will determine the price up or down, because if only buybacks are held without a market strategy, the buyback will be in vain.

Last year, the first project that began to buy back their tokens was Heronode - at that time it was something incredible that people didn’t believe and that is why the project, which had to go to minus on the stock exchange, was 50 percent more expensive! It was very cool. Now it can be seen quite often and it inspires confidence in the project!

Buyback might be good idea but the question is how far people willing to support it because usually people not too excited to recovered the price from particular tokens and sometimes it could be useless or recover price will not last long if after that people starting to sold the tokens again or dominated by sell support

Yes, buy back a very good mechanism to prevent dump of tokens at a ridiculous price. It really helps a project to have a moderate price on exchange because most buy backs are always at ICO price. I hope more project adopt this mechanism so that price of their token won't just dump anyhow on exchange.

Buying back is a very healthy technique to keep project moving and growing  .Its a pity not all Team adopt this strategy which often leads to the project becoming dead in the nearest future. Buying back techniques is very healthy for ICO or STO Projects.

For a short time yes, but think about long term, they can´t buy back all tokens tha tthey sold.
But a good example that this strategy works is CounthingHouse.

not for all actually ,
for example if the project have a huge bonus on sales period , they just buyback a shit .
and the prices still same as before.

Can you give details on what are the rules of those buyack programs?
Are they buying back unlimited amount from anyone?

In general projects are not willing to spend their funds for their token price sake. Especially bounty tokens. For some projects it could make sense if they have good amount of their tokens allocated to themselves.

The buyback tokens mechanism is a temporary solution to ease or stop the incessant dumping of a particular token
It doesn’t necessarily aid the project, but it improves the buy order, increases the price of the token as well as the daily volume, while also giving investors the chance to sell at good price

But it could also be a trap, depends on your research capabilities

Another strategy to avoid dump is utility creation. Buybacks are great in sustaining price utility keeps the price surging.

Only few projects i knew had done this one, and i personally believe that this helps in the price movements, yes its a good idea to have a buy back, this prevents from price going down, so far its a good mechanism for a project to have a buy back

We can't really stop anyone from dumping their tokens as it is theirs but if that tokens represent a really good project then i think there is no need for the team to buyback as it will automatically be patronized by the community as they will recognized and support legit and good projects.

That’s a good idea to prevent the price to fall, but i believe if the project is not good even if they back buck the token the price will still fall since its not a good coin to buy for. I didn’t encounter any project like this before since they are all useless coin now but maybe if I participate again, I’m willing to sell my coin to the developer, its a good profit on the side of hunters.

Token buyback program does help the project, it is only sustainable when the project itself has some reasonable community supporting it, otherwise, dumpers just dump it and move on to the next project. It may also be very helpful to especially at the onset when those who got the token cheaply are likely to dump them. It can be a wise thing to do sometimes. Shivom OMX was a great project, raised about 42 mil $ in ICO but the team completely ignored the price, the community member were not even allowed to discuss the price. The result was investors dumping the tokens

I agree with you, too. This is a great idea to avoid dumping the price. But it happens that the project simply does not have the funds to maintain the price of the token in a normal state and many do not even bother about it.

It is very good when the team understands this and does everything to make their project to be successful. This indicates the serious intentions of the team. Coins of such project should be hodl, I consider.

There were some projects in the past that lied about buyback in order to pump their coins. I know the strategy works, but before you can hold unto the word of the team for such strategy, they have to be trustable. Then if the project has not done adequate marketing, i do not think it will work, because such should also attract investors to it.

only few projects that realized buy back to their tokens.mostly it just lip services in order to market demand rise.actually if they realized it , developers team will have alot benefits, market will trust to them and ofcourse it will bring positive impact to their developtment in future.

i do not considered ICO projects as good coin for buying back because most of ICO's are dumping and some of them failed to recover back in the market.

To be sincere it takes a good team who wants the best for their platform to initiate something like buyback. Others will come up with excuse to backup the dumping nature of their coin while others will look for ways to limit the dumping, so it all comes down to what the team wants to achieve.
Also, buyback mechanism has helped a lot of projects to maintain their price over a long period of time; have seen a handful that has done it.

It really is and the project that does this, are those projects that are for a long term and legit, some projects do not want to do this and in fact, doing the opposite by dumping their own shares we should support those coins that have a buy back mechanism in their roadmap.

It's a brilliant idea to take more investors because it's making hype for the coin. The first buyback that I've heard is with TRX last month but I'm not updated with the progress of it and I think this will be the new craze for this time just to continue the market motion for such coins.

There is also one project right now that is doing the buy back mechanism like the EOSBET project. Its related to gambling. The project has been distributing dividends to its token holders so that I think is going to make this project one of a kind.

The only thing that is solve here though is the number of holders that is going to dump. Lesser dumpers but same volume of tokens being dumped. I'm pretty sure most of the holders are going to dump including the team that has bought back.  ;D

I guess, for the ones that just want to move on, it's good for them.
But I wonder if that will help the tokenomics cycle in the future.
Coins need organic growth, natural buy sell orders and volume or else a big buyoff will result in tons of inactivity for a long time.
That long period of inactivity in trading can permanently kill the value of the coin.
It kind of seems like a temporary solution that might make things worse in the long run.

I guess, the real problem is, the entire ico/ieo fundraising model should be looked at because it just isn't very legitimate anymore.
But, who knows, maybe in another crazy bull run things will go back to what they were before?

Buyback programs of tokens to avoid the dump is just a short term solution for a token. As long as the project / token does not have any interest in the investors mind or it does not have any demand in the market or the niche it represent then in the long run the token will just dump again. I would be better if project focus on what they can deliver in the market a have investors in their project.

Buyback tokens is not bad idea, the developer try to prevent the falling price of token. It is also the simple way to improve financial statement because it can make the project look more attractive to investors. Most of investors prefer like to invest in cryptocurrency which has positive price trends.

Investors and bounty hunters should support tokens with buyback mechanism in their roadmap, it guarantees that the price will not fall back and there will always volume, but developers are too greedy to do this, they want all the funds accumulated in their coffer.

Nope. Token Buyback that is being done by the team can increase its price but it is temporary only.

When a massive token dump happen, there are some bounty hunters who will choose to store a small amount of that token and if the buy back happens that will be the time that they will sell it all. There are some coins that did this buy back and did nothing to its price. I think token Burn is better than token buy back.

it's hard to really be worth dumping your bounty token because your income is much bigger so it's better if you get your bounty tokens hold it down until it dumps its price and then sells so your profits.

I think that is indeed a good marketing strategy to keep prices from being dumped. Both parties, between investors and developers, will benefit, so the growth of prices in the market can be controlled. This will be even better if supported by a comprehensive media strategy.

very little we can get a project like that, it is a very good idea, because price dumpers always occur due to bounty hunters, they take that action as a form of their love for their project, and they are willing to spend their funds to overcome it, very rarely projects that want to be like that, I don't know what they think not to buy back the token, even though it is the right solution to fix.

A pretty good strategy to make investors who join not disappointed, I was happy to hear that when a project made a buy back strategy. Indirectly, their team is really serious in managing the project for the future.

Retaining coins and always seeing the altcoin prices that we hold in crypto exchanges will always keep us up to date, but waiting for repurchases by the team is very tiring, you have to be patient and see the altcoins you hold have almost no price when a dump occurs.

True,I'm aware that miracletele is buying back tokens from bounty hunters and whales but the fact is they are able to do so because they are successful ,telecom companies generate good incomes everyday as far as more people are using their sim cards

I disagree, usually buyback programmes buy tokens nearly the dumped price. And release them after the price recovery so that’s a winwin situation.

Buying back tokens is a very good way to control value lose in tokens when they get listed on exchange, since many tokens lose value when bounty hunters dump on exchange this corrects the problem entirely but unfortunately not a projects are capable of buying back their own tokens ,only successful projects who raised hardcap funds are capable

The fact is ,devs will only buy back their tokens for cheaper rate and not ICO rate ,so I think it makes lot of sense instead of allowing dumpers to ruin the volume of the token when listed on exchanges

Yes it does, at least the projects that has done it were able to maintain a reasonable price for a long while. Also, most projects adds buyback to their roadmap to attract investors while at the long run not doing it. In my own opinion, if buyback is adequately carried out by the team it will help to regulate the price of their token which is good and will make the project get the needed attention.

Buying back token is a good idea if the token has a good project so we can get it the token at a low price. The token will increase higher and perhaps, and it will reach more than the ico price if the support from the developer is good, and they have a good project. While we already have the token and we sell when it's launch in the market, we have a chance to buy back the token at a low price and hold it for some time. So when the price can increase higher in the future, we will make a big profit again. The strategy to buy back the token will only work if the token could prove that they deserve to be the good coin in the future.

Buyback mechanism should present in any iCO,IEO,STO because it will help a lot to stabilized the coin/token price. But most of the projects today doesnt have a buyback plan. For me that was not innovative in the sense of letting its own token to be worthless in the name of saving the funds for the development of the platform. and the other is hiding in a legal allibis that they couldnt do a buyback since they are a security token.

From the projects I have seen which did this, it really helped the project to gain more traders or users as the case many be. Also, this act of buying back shows that the project really raised funds or have the funds to keep the project running while keeping their token price moderate.. Most projects find it hard doing this, but will be quick to channel blames when the price falls terribly.

Buy back is good but it does not necessarily solve dumping. It will only help stabilize the token price for a while but in a situation where all holders are planning on dumping their coin, do you really think the devs will be capable of buying all back?

Unfortunately not all projects do this to avoid a dump. But we cannot force all projects to buy back. I am also very happy with the MIRACLETELE project that has made a buyback. But unfortunately I have already sold my tokens on the forkdelta, because they did not discuss the buyback at the beginning.

It seems that buy back must be applied to several projects but it usually does not affect the price, you should not buy again because what you need is liquidity and real products to increase demand

It can be good but a team should continue to work and to improve their services, if there's a buy back then something is not good on that coin maybe they are afraid for the bounty hunters to sell it for a less. Investors invest on a good project even if there's no buy back, I guess if its IEO then it would be hard to buy back the token which is already listed on the exchange and anyone who owns the token can start trading it.

if the development team is serious on that project then the buyback program is good enough to keep the coin price healthy.. but there are dev team out there telling there community about buyback program but in the end they want to pump the price and their are the one dumping their own coin

That's true, buy back policy is great and curbs massive dump.  Some projects which did it helped stabilize their coin prices. I remember seeing a buy wall of 2000 ETH for a token I wanted to dump on IDEX, and when I made enquiry from the project's telegram group, team was buying back.  It made me hold my tokens then later set a higher sell order, which was picked eventually.

Depending of the volume of the coin is a good or a bad idea, plus could let to some people to sell off before the team buys, drop the price and then buy again. Also if the volume in general is low the team could end up controlling a really high % of the circulating supply. Maybe investing in market making and having some sort of burn mechanism would be a better idea if what you want is a non-inflationary supply.

It has already been said that no, they can not. And in the future it will not help to save the price of the token.
I agree with the opinion that the money raised should be used for the development of the project. In strategic terms, this will help the project asset much more than a buyback. Just investors will have to be more patient.

No, this is a price manipulation. Just look at Link partnership with Google, if you see the price movement, you  manipulation will notice there is inside trade. Team will just be selling at the top and buying at the bottom, another thing is where is he team going to get money for buying sine most of them are not making money yet.

Some people think that buyback is useless but I don't believe so...to an extent.
Buyback will help stabilize price especially when executed during initial listing.
Dumpers who need to dump and move on with other project(s), alongside those who need immediate profit are found of dumping Even far below ICO price.

Buy is good, founders should have plans for it.

Every tokens or coins with real life asset or use case need no buyback at all,I believe they are capable of withstanding any dump issue ,no matter how many dumpers dump the token it will rise in value just because it has real use case

I can't understand why it could be a bad thing. It would stop the price dropping so much. Though then people cannot take advantage of a massive price drop. If you told ahead of time then it is fine.
I am unsure how they would sustain this strategy but if they find a way to then that would be great.

You sure you are not in anyway affiliated with this projects? It looks like you are promoting them.

Anyway, token buyback could be good thing as long as it not done too much. Bounty hunters need the buyback the most...not sure  it is good idea to buyback from investors/whales though. Hunters deserve their wages. One of the worst things that can happen to anyone is not getting paid after finding a job and working really hard

Buyback token is temporary method to solve dumping solve, it just for a week then it get dump again. The solution for dumping are:
- what the holder can get from owning that token
- team must "force' the people to buy and hold their token by looking the project
Just need to improve the quality from the project that make people want to invest on it.

Yea that could be the solve. But the thing is, is it healty for the volume? How much and how long they can buy coin from the dumper? Thats why you need quality product, i think for me the quality product is everything.

I can't say if Miracle Tele team has finally now reply hunters who want to sell their tokens. I just wish they could keep their tokens and wait for official listing. Buying back of token can save a lot and restore investors confidence rather than just allowing things to go bad.

Buy back and Burn which usually go hand in hand is a strategy employed by some project developers to maintain coin stability or asset stability of their projects. It is practiced often by Binance and will be employed by Bitfinex for Leo

I agree with you. Buy back has helped many projects curtail dumping, because once investors or community members hear that there will be a buy back, a good percentage will hold thereby leading to increase in the price of the token. Also, there are projects that can use it as a strategy to dump on their investors, thereby in all dealings let's be careful of every project and be sure the team can achieve what they stated.

purchasing of tokens and after that selling it again once the entire project as of now in the good position after updates and advancement has been done is an awesome procedure for projects to pursue.
People will consider those current projects that have genuine use.
on the off chance that the project do have genuine potential and it is all around Supported after and afterward the price will become higher

Buy back token is really solves dumping prices to reduce the supply and the demand is high and the price will also high, it is not hard to buy back token if the project have getting big funds they can really save the token to be worst of value.

Buy back tokens for investors and bounty hunters might be an alternative. But usually, not many developer teams want to do that, especially for those who don't have real products. The rest, maybe they will also buy at a lower price, maybe 50% of the actual price. In this case, investors may not be too interested. But for bounty hunters, it can be good news.

Of course buying back from the dumpers is a great idea and mechanism used in saving a cryptocurrency project from crashing in price. What just happen is that some project already kicked themselves in the ass by placing too much or high bonuses to their ICO investors which make their tokens already extremely cheaper than its face value. When this is the case, the team might have a whole lots of buybacks to do to revive their prices from forever crashing.

i have a question, if they use the money that they have collected in able to purchase back the tokens from dumpers. It will just cost a lot for the company. But i believe this can work out, we only need the right percentage in able for the token to avoid being dumped and not costing a lot for the companies collected funds as well.

i heard many times about buy back program from some coin but the fact they didn't do anything with the coin. some of coin that i follow promised about buyback , but at the end that just fake news , they make fake news so investor would interest to buy more coin.

I do not see why it makes sense to do. For example Miracle Tele is now buying back tokens and in the same time they are selling tokens to investors for same price. I thought that ICOs need to collect money for product development and not for sales mediation  :D.

Any project with buyback program will guarantee the value for the token. However, I think the most important thing is the use cases of the token, if there is a high need for a token, its price will be guaranteed, no need the buyback program.

it is to stabilize the price of their tokens on the market. it is the first step in community trust so that their trade continues to increase. when their market is good, and later supported by product launches it will be an extraordinary pump.

Buyback is one of the best solutions that a team can make to recover a token price. But a lot of teams are just greedy, so they are more likely to blame bounty hunters rather than to do something for their community.

Any good project developer with intentions to run a very competitive platform within top 50 range on coinmarketcap will always have a buyback plan. Many top projects does it including Aergo. Buyback is very useful in stabilising the price of your coins

Buy back of tokens by the team helps a great deal to reduce dumping. This strategy is used by some projects especially after distributing Airdrop or bounty tokens to curb massive dumping and it works.

Redemption of tokens is a good step in supporting projects from the possible discharge of coins. Of course, this option does not work in all cases, but in principle, it can work with Miracle Tele, as this is a really working project, as many have already seen.

Most platforms didn't reaise enough money in their funding rounds to be able to successfully implement a buyback scheme while still being able to develop their product.

Plus, 90% of projects are just money grabs, why would they want to buy back their monopoly tokens they just created to grab your cash?

One of the best examples of the buyback is Binance coin. They are getting back their coins back by accepting it as an exchange fee and then one in a couple of months they burn it to make some sort of deficit.

and recently they announced that they want to burn 100 percent of the coins that belong to the team. I think that soon it will be a very strong growth

To an extent, I think the buyback of token is good, if the market is bullish, it can help maintain the price of the token, after buying back the team can help maintain the price of the token though different ways like burning of the token.

It could be, because buyback is a way to maintain their cryptographic value in the market later. But will it really go as expected? We cannot be sure because prices in the market cannot be controlled. And not all of the coin holders token want to make a buyback system. Especially if indeed the price offered at the time of buyback is certainly lower than when they bought the token or coin.

they can't stabilize the price and do you think with the buyback and everything will be under control by the team? It can prevent the dump for a short time but it can't prevent the dump that created by the team like it has no good news after the run of development progress.

In that case, a project team is an important part of trying to pump tokens from the project, but in fact, many tokens are sinking after dumping occurs. So investors certainly don't want to buy tokens that are abandoned by the project team.

Buybacks can be an alternative to recovering prices but I think it's only temporary. Prices on the market depend on supply and demand, if small demand or investors are not interested or trust in the project, investors will always sell and buybacks become ineffective. I think the most effective way to recover prices is on the project itself because investment is about trust

Buyback is not only stablize price, and somehow can not stabilize price, because there is no one, no company can control price on market. However, via buy back events, they can give investors positive feelings, or help them feel better after tough period, then they will stop panic sellings, or keep holding their tokens and wait for more growths.

I agree with you, the buyback method is a very brilliant method, which method can be used as a solution for dump tokens, many projects have to be willing to die due to dump prices dropping to no value at all, of course this will be a loss for investors, many projects that only sell sales do not provide a solution if there is a dump, they only hope that investors or traders can stabilize the price of their coins, which is less effective and not independent.

Buyback idea is a good initiative by the project team. It means they are putting value to their tokens. They do not want any unnecessary dump. If someone wants to dump, the team will absorb it, causing no damage to the price. However, serious dumping is something that is caused by losing trust, very slow to no development or progress at all, unresponsive team to concerns and issues, lack of innovation, repetitive failure to fulfill what is on the roadmap, etc. A project cannot prevent dumping by buyback if the mentioned factors are present. 

besides it solve price drop, its also growth investors confidence to the projects.they look it as serious action from developers team.but so far its very rate to see dev team buy back token .i only i see one projects that doing it , that is Pundix.

It was a good strategi to avoid dumping, on miracle tele when buy back news spreading exchange on forkdelta price is moving up, but one problem that KYC process on tele website is too slow responsible

I strongly advice buyback of tokens for all other developers that wants to release bounty for their project,its one of the best way to avoid dumps or to avoid making token lose value

Buying back tokens might resolve the dumping problem only temporary, as it depends on what happens to the bought tokens.

If thwy will be released through bounty/airdrop programs, they will be sold again at very  cheap prices.

If the developer makes a buyback for the token bounty, why isn't paid the bounty from the beginning using the ETH or BTC, so as not to bother making a buyback

It seems to me that payment in ETH / BTC will be more expensive for the developer than just a buyback. for redemption, you just need to track strange orders that put manipulators

in my opinion it is not miserable because there are usually more tokens in circulation than the buyback allocation but it does have little effect because if a token moves backback can be done, it can go up.

it is done to control market prices more stable. but usually only in a certain amount. the project that makes a buyback and is supported by burning tokens for a certain period will make the development of the token price good. especially in the long run. I prefer this event rather than dividends.

The idea behind buyback is a very good one which will enhance the stability of price of tokens. However most team are not truthful when it comes to buy back. I promoted a project last year, by the time it got to the exchange, the bear season had a negative impact on the price and it really dumped, the teamn promised to buy back to stabilize the price, unfortunately, the buyback did not yield any productive result because the team was also buying back at a very low price rendering the aim defeated.

Buy back is a nice strategy for any coin. It goes a long way to stabilize the price of the token in the market. Economically speaking, when supply and demand are at pal, it stabilize the price but when one surpass the other, it has a positive or negative effect on the price.

Yes, buyback is a good idea, it usually ease sell pressure from investors who jump from one project after talking their profit, greedy project find this difficult to do because they do not believe in what they are planning to build.

It is a good way for the price to comeback in good shape but this will not last longer.
There will be a dumpers even you do buyback as long as the weak hands having the token it will continue to low.
What we really need is the buyback with good news or development from the team, big partnership or platform launch. new listing on a big exchange.

Indeed, the buyback system is very beneficial for bounty hunters and for investors. Because they can resell the coin at the ICO standard price. But this is rarely done by the project developer, considering this will harm the developer. So they must risk their assets in exchange.

And that is the exact reason why they should always allocate a decent amount of token for bounty hunters and not to just think they can deceive bounty hunter by allocating huge amount of token that they can not afford to pay or buy back. besides, this might not solve issue of dumping because many of them usually give huge discounts to investors that also dump the token. XCT token is an example. despite the fact that the bounty hunters is locked, the token is getting dumped. poor exchange platform is also one of the factor.

I also really like this strategy from the projects. This will greatly help many companies so that their coins do not fall in price. But here you need to understand that for the purchase of each project will need money at the initial stage, but unfortunately not everyone has it.

You can think it work but what it they actually dump it intentionally to buy at low rate and pump to accumulate more funds cos we have so many project that did that , even some find it difficult to distribute token to hunters cos of price dump but still surprise when the investors who buy at ICO price are selling below it without hunters tokn be distribute , so who is the dumper if not developer or team , we just have to pray and catch our fish when still alive cos every thing in crypto is becoming something to get out off.

Yeah sort of, although it might not prevent dumping totally it might significantly reduce the extent of dumping on the coin. It does help if no discount was given to investors since this help them to accumulate much of the coin.

I also attest, as evidenced by the recent Miracle Tele buyback program, the buyback both helps stabilize the price and also greatly bolsters the reputation of a project.

If the team is willing to pay ICO prices to buyback the tokens, it's a huge step towards establishing the legitimacy and credibility of that business.

I strongly believe that buyback of tokens helps to minimize dump when it lists on exchange or when bounty hunters have been given their rewards. When people see a big buy wall, they tend to set a higher sell price and they don't rush to sell cheap. This always has a positive result with regards dumping.

It won't solve dumping, because we don't know how the demand for its token could recover once holders increased. Although there's a good chance that it could help the recovery of the price of your crypto holdings, but what's important here is the potential benefit it could give you if you're buying back a promising coins that will have increasing value in the future.

It helps to solve the issue and instill hope in the hearts of investors and holders. I was following a project PDATA, it experienced huge dump after listing but once buy back was announced it rose to about 50% within hours.

Yes, it all depends on the potential of the coin. If the team decides to buyback their coins, it means they might have something planned to revive its value. But one should be very vigilant on this matter. It might be a trap to potential investors and later on, no development will follow. You should take into account if they are sincere in moving their project forward.

Buyback mechanism is good but it is not every project that has the necessary strength and funds to do so. I've heard of the miracleTele buyback. The team has an already working product so they already had the funds and that is why they were able to do that

Buyback is a relative effect but really unpredictable. Miracle tele in my opinion has good prospect and the teams are really working. On the other hand, there are other big projects with serious teams, they did strategic buyback but at the end of the day, it was disaster.

It is good, but need really research from the developer itself. Because when buy back, people who bought in the lowest price usually take action too and they make sell wall because they think they already get profit. It can be barrier for price to pumped. For me, coins or tokens that already dumped really hard to increased again.

That's a great initiative for the team, but it doesn't mean the coin is safe form dumping.
IIRC, there is one ICO project I know in the past that have buy buck their coins but on a limited period only, some sold their tokens and some continue to hold even the price is lower than the ICO price because it build their confidence higher, but unfortunately the token still ended up dumping in the long run.

IMO, buyback only solve the temporary dump of the tokens.

99% of projects don't have the funds to buy back their tokens, plus their project is just a ploy to grab money.

Why would they buy back their monopoly tokens for real money, lol?

buyback did increase coin prices but it was only temporary, because buyback did not make coin prices continue to increase, so in my opinion the buyback only had a good impact for the short term and the price might fall again, but at least a buyback can reduce the risk of falling coin prices too far, therefore many projects do not make a buyback and use the money to develop the project, because the prices will increase by themselves and of course the increase will last for the long term if the project from the coin has very good progress.

I will only be doing a buyback if I could see some indications that it will have chances to recover later. Doing this thing is such a big risk into our part especially when we are buying those newly created coins. And even we do buyback but still is not an assurance that we could stop it from dumping cause in the other part that some of us are still selling it down.

Exactly, it is just delaying the inevitable, just a temporary solution, but eventually the dump will be forthcoming, so I doubt that this will be a good solution in the long run.

Although, I like this practice coming from a project, it means that really don't want their tokens to tank in the market, but dumpers will be dumpers and as long as they can make money then there's no doubt that they will do it in an instant.

It's a great deal but the question is how the team can put a lot of effort to create a regular update. i guess the investors will be feeling fine to see that but the fact that when no update has been created and investors have started to feel panic. It's a good idea for short term only.

It's a good idea to keep the coin floating on the market but what will happen when the team runs out of funds to buy back the tokens? Because when they run of funds to buyback I think the tokens value will fall at a much faster rate?

Not going to solve dumping but you're giving opportunity the early investors and bounty hunters to profit. When the token is going to be on the market, it will still have to be dumped by holders.

All the tokens that is sent to the exchanges are going to be dumped before those traders buy back.

Buying back does not fix the problem at the root.
The problem is that many people are not helping coins by mining and dumping for example.
Coins should be careful to who they are vesting their money. If you let too many miners, if you go into the auto select pools, if you give millions in bounties, it might help to get some popularity at the very beginning, but all these people are not real supporter of the coin.
If you have to buy back your own coin, that means that you failed to attract people who cares about your projet.
As an investor, stay away from these coin, they are not healthy, they are just short term projects that goal is to make short term money. Your investment is at risk when playing with these coins.

Buyback indeed can extend the token not being completely dumped inside the exchange, chances to continue fulfilling the progress if the team behind did a good strategic plans and work with possible ways to avoid the project being dumped, it's a good sign that they are aware of possibilities to happen after the listing and they are trying to work it out while working as well with the future of their project.

Buyback is good if there are few circulating supply because buying back from a few people when there are many of the tokens still in circulation will not solve anything. It will just be like buying at a higher price when everyone knows the price is cheap. But in some sense, it just makes the project seems legit because the devs are serious about the tokens. If it continues for along time, it can drive a lot of people into it but that doesn't usually happen. Buybacks just start and end without any good reasons.

Yeah i think that the good solution to stop the dump price ever.
We can said if we buyback it mean dump is stop and we can handle the pricr to grow up again.
This is we need.

Is true that buy back solve dumping issue but its just a temporal solution. I will prefer that project works on a real usecase product that will create constant demand and increase of price.  Price should not be the only thing keeping investors in a project let the product also keeps them

Buyback solutions aren't true solutions... just a temporary bandaid on a problem that typically won't hold up. It sounds good from an investor standpoint, as then some sort of profit is guaranteed. But generally all it results in is that the dev team needs to lose a big chunk of their own funds before the coin breaks through the buyback wall.

I think if a project is so weak it gets tanked by bounty hunters dumping then it is not a good project to begin with. Think about it. A good dev team would be so sure about their project that they would not even see dumping as a problem.

Blame the project for failing and the people who support scams instead of good projects. If the money went to good projects instead of scams things will go a lot smoother.

Obviously its a brilliant idea for a project dev to consider buyback their tokens if they are afraid of dumped their coins when listed on exchange by bounty hunters or whales. In my opinion if Buyback option would be adopted by more project devs it would be quite good step for projects.

Indeed, without buyback, the coin price will be hard to rise from the bottom.
Unless the project have a quick development and releasing products, there won't be any price recover from the dump.
Buyback also attract new investors because the price of the coin is rising.

Very brilliant idea, and it helps the value of the token grow, I guess they are just learning from the strategies of Binance, because this was the strategy that Binance first used in making their value appreciate, I learnt that what Binance usually do then was to buy back all these tokens, and they just don’t buy them to keep, they buy them to burn, so they burn the tokens thereby reducing the supply of the token available in the market and then the demands available will continue to grow the value, and we know that this is the strategy that make the value of a coin grow more, the higher the demand and lesser supply, the more the value will grow. For these companies that have also adopted same strategy, I guess it is very okay provided they will burn the token.

Binance applies creative method and it helps them to maintain and boost the price of BNB. However, I doubt that other exchanges can get same kind of success with same strategy, because that strategy has become a new trend, then when the trend comes to its end, it will be hard for late-joiners to get success. ICOs, IEOs, buy back and burn, they all good games for early comers.

That's really a good idea if the project will be here for a long term and with a good platform, they should do a buyback, investors should only invest in a project that will be implementing a buyback, it's a win-win situation for investors and the project as well.

Most rich developers do this periodically to increase the value of their coin, Binance does this and burn a certain quantity to maintain a fairly good price, I think this is the idea behind the deflationary tokens but a lot of them were outright scam

Buyback mechanism is the good ways, i agree with you, For project which collect many funds during offering that's good but what happen with project only reach softcap? Not all project can do this

So buyback is good but i think the best ways is work diligently and responsibility to develop the project

Only works if there is limitation in the amount of the tokens will be bought back and the price is not above ICO otherwise the project will eventually runs out of money to fund their project thus no progression.
There are few projects that I've seen using this method and when the buy back mechanism available to their investors the funds prepared is vanished in an instant when the market is bearish. It seems that this mechanism also will hold back the growth of the project because it does takes a lot of resources.

Without any doubt the most efficient way of preventing token dumping. This should be a lesson to people that are blaming bounty hunters for such things. It is much easier to pass the responsibility rather than to spend some money on buyback.

The team must repurchase dump tokens, this is aimed at maintaining investors' trust in the projects they are running, in addition to that goal by repurchasing is one of the strategies to maintain price stability.

Buy back most time is a big hit for those that HODL. Why support buyback, it helps to stabilize the price of the coin in the market. On the other hand, the investors also benefit from their investment when the company buys back the coin.

Buy back is a strategy that should be adopted by different cryptocurrency project to save the prices of tokens from uncontrollable dump. Although different project  CEOs are not always sincere about the buy back. But buy back should always be used to redeem token prices.

The buyback method; It doesn’t solve dumping
It prevents further dump; aid the volume of the token; drive potential investors to buy more ahead
And makes previous losers gain; while present gainers are left to scratch their head if anything goes wrong

Pdata announced buyback program. They will buyback 1% of all your tokens. Do you know the result? -50% drop  ;D. I do not think that this is the best way how to protect against dump.

PDATA is a scam one, and I can not forget how it dumped days ago. Buy back usually help price increases, but it does not right for all cases; especially with scam projects. When investors find the truth about scam projects, buy backs don't have good effects on price.

Buy back token for bounty and airdrop announce by miracle tele is one of example its solve dumping, look on forkdelta when first distribution its pumping and increase every day, it was a good strategy

PDATA was doing a very wrong thing, the dump caused by PDATA didn't make its investors feel confidence by release the regular update. the buyback should be more than it. but PDATA team is really bad at this moment.

Its a rare thing for a project to have that buyback program because usually do happen on projects when already dumped they do easily leave out dead and move
on to make another project to raise funds.

Buyback do really built up trust into its investors who do believe into the project but you cant really avoid for such dump yet main dumpers are majority of investors itself.Dont always took the blame on bounty hunters.

but not all buybacks can provide a positive value on the price of the coin because many projects have done it but have not experienced a price increase, in my opinion all depends on the product and team performance

Yes in my opinion I think developers buying back tokens can help in controlling the price of such tokens, because every markets has to do with demands and supply.

Buying back tokens is a great idea. Especially if the projects token is down 99% , it's cheap for the team to buy back & give a positive signal
to holders that they are still with the project/token.

Buybacks would be easier if crypto projects made actual profits, but very few ever do..   ;D

it is indeed very helpful in overcoming dumping price tokens, but this is only temporary, and not all companies are able and willing to do this method, because buying dumping price tokens certainly makes the company loss, and the circulation of these tokens will be held more by company compared to investors

In my personal experience, that doesn't guarantee solving dumping. Last Christmas I bought back the tokens I got from a bounty campaign, but unfortunately it wasn't gaining a good price after. Yet the bearish market came and the value was too cheap until. My options is to hold and wait until it recovers back at profitable price.

I seldom see these buy-back options on the so many crowdfunding that I've participated in, it's a big attraction and if projects want to guaranty success in their crowdfunding, they should allocate at least 20% of the sales to buy back, if their project is legit and for long term the coins that they are going to recover are their's to sell in the future with a more higher price

That is right! A buyback mechanism may solve the dumping problem temporarily but its not a viable long term solution adding to the fact that dumping is quite a normal occurrence in crypto markets and most likely cannot be avoided yet one way to ensure a price recovery and long term price stability is to continue developing the project and offer innovative features to make it more attractive to investors and the whole crypto-community in general.

Buying back tokens won't stop project from dumping, rather, a good project with the right hype and use case will help keep the price afloat.

I also believe that this is a great solution to the problem of dumping prices. It seems to me that each team should have funds set aside just for this case. But unfortunately this is not everyone's strength and that is why we have such a result.

Buyback model bounty campaigns do not solve the mentioned problems in my humble opinion. Dumpers gonna dump, the affords of the team have no special effect on this case from my experience. Let the bounty hunters help liquidity conditions of the altcoin market and don't act like that altcoin always should go up. Bounty buyback promises are not fixed and it changes after the end of the bounty campaigns as far as I know.

it only delay the decline. when there is no support from the market to increase purchasing power of course it will definitely go down. because with a stable price it will trigger some holders to hold or sell more.

Not all buybacks are good,some project teams takes advantage of the buyback to buy at a ridiculous price from hunters,just imagine if  the project token costs 0.06cent and the buyback is at 0.001 how is this a reasonable buyback? Not all projects are capable of a good buyback program

Of course its cause big positive effect on coin price, but buy back is actually a expensive way of spending marketing budget and only few projects can handle it. Exchange marketmaking is looks similar for me, but without a load announciation in way liks "we buy back million of tokens..". I know PDATA project, they announced buy back event with $5000 budget, lol :)

It is true. it only slows down the time to have a low price. what needs to be done to prevent dumps is to improve the quality of the project. when a project has actually become better, it will certainly make the price go up, even that will make it stable.

It would be a good option for the project devs to consider. Anyways, it's always up to them whether they do this strategy or not. Buy back bounties, will lower the price drop when initiated by the project owners before hitting exchange.

Indeed, the Buyback system is a system to avoid a dumper. But companies rarely do this, unless the company is truly successful as planned. CHELLE Coin may be one of the projects that have been running as expected. So the team dared to buy tokens that were below the ICO price.

This is true because I have seen most projects which did it and was able to control dumping to a certain extent. I think when rightly done on intervals it will make the price of a project valuable. Nevertheless, buyback programs should be duly checked, that is the project doing such and if they really had a successful Public sale; as it can also be used to lure Investors.

I believe that projects should allocate at least 20% of their funds to buy back and use the token that they bought for the team's future profit and development of the platform, but of course, it could happen, if they have limited tokens in their hands, like they burned their unsold tokens, or they locked the developers token, or all tokens are sold out.

This type of analysis is not right without reflecting the market situation and future viewpoint of the project roadmap. Buyback does not solve the dumping process, it just decreases the time for dumping from my experience. It is a proven statement by big investors and I don't deny the fact about the responsibility of teams but this is simply one side problem. Dumpers will drop the price of the coin and this entire manner provides more liquidity.   

the buyback program is one way to keep the price of tokens stable and foster trust in investors, but this is not the only way to avoid dumping. indeed some of the projects that carried out this program succeeded in growing the tokens they developed, but there are still many ways from developers to grow their tokens.

Buyback mechanism can solve temporarily and made the price to estabilized in the short period but eventually if the investors want to dump it will dump thats why Buyback is just like a band aid solution and not solve the problem of dumping in the long run. the real lasting solution was finding the way to increase the demand and utilization to drive the token price slowly.

I have to agree with you. Since this is the only way out of this trend. And in this case all remain happy with but especially bounty hunters.

Some buyback from project developers are bad idea because it wasnt planned very well and some projects buyback is nothing different from bounty hunters dumping on exchanges because they buyback at ridiculous price.

Making a ransom is of course a good idea, but not quite enough to keep the price of the token. Comprehensive measures are needed to support the project as a whole. Only really working and developing projects will be able to stay afloat.

Yes, buyback solves the issue of dumping temporarily.  Why I used temporarily is because after the buy wall placed by the team is cleared and there is no substantial development with the project, many people won't have reasons to hold for long term. Well, quarterly  buyback , that's done after a given period of time helps a great deal to reduce dumping, since investors are aware that the team buys back periodically.  A dumper will normally check the buy wall, if not impressive then FUD sets in and he/she dumps cheap, the reverse is the case.

yes that's true,  but why some team don't do a buy back is because they don't have the money to do a buy back. They must have lied that they raised money when they actually didn't and the token prices on exchanges keeps looking bad

This is a really good move from a project. If a project spends 500K to 1 Million USD in buyback then that project will grow very well. The GXC coin has this plan and now their coin price is now over 2 USD! For this price backed, holders will be interested in holding not in selling. So, buyback really helps a project coin to grow forward.

Buyback model tokens are not going to make a great return on the investment and the lack of the funds is not the reason teams don't want to apply this. They lie to the investors and bounty hunters but the price is not going up after completing their promise regarding the buyback.

I agree with you. The only buyback can solve the dumping problem. But you know what, most of the ICO projects don't want to go through this process! Once they said it is against the rule! I don't know what rules or maybe they don't care about the investor's loss! Buyback can make a positive hype among the holders and they will hold the token tight than selling!

it caused by the developers have been putting various requirements to do that. If the team was putting easy requirements and the buyback method can at least solve the dump. If they have done it before the token goes to the exchange site and that will defend the price of token.

Of course, buy back strategy has a good impact on the project because it is one of the means to attract investors and tell them how capable the coin can be bought back and sold at higher price in the future. This motivates long term holders as it gives them reason not to dump but hold for the higher price in future.

Not every project is capable of doing the buy back because not every project raise a good amount of money.

Buy back is only for those who raise a decent amount and this project has a good potential, the team has to ensure they are capable of doing the buy back and will not affect the future of the project, if the purpose of the buy back is to only avoid the dump from bounty hunters, I don't think it would work well in the long run.

To buy back tokens from investors or bounty hunters is really not a easy thing to do but projects that introduce buyback have pro teams and devs and the project is successful thats why they can easily afford the buyback which makes the coin or token have good price value, buying back coins  and tokens by teams actually solve dumping

I took part in a bounty campaign and the team bought back tokens to prevent dumping. The stacking rewards also earned bi-weekly also prevents people from dumping the tokens and rather holding them.

It depends. If the team burns the tokens they earned or bought back on a regular basis (like BNB), then we should expect to see positive price movements. But if they plan to dump the tokens they bought back in the future, the buyback cannot solve anything.

I agree buyback is not the only way for developers to stabilise thier token prices but it is the easiest and fastest route with little sustainability anyway because no Coin survives on just trading. Having a working product adopted in the real world is very essential

Yes, it's actually a good idea, I know of miracle Tele, the buying back actually helped them and I think the price has stabilized now for sometime. Also fxp announced they will do some buying back soon, it will also help them as well

Quite crafty but also reasonable, but if it can be used to build prices again, then no problem. It is quite risky to hold a new token, there are only two possibilities, holding back for the sake of waiting for an uncertain price to rise, or immediately selling it before the price falls deeper. This is the importance of a good strategy from the developer. If the token listing on several profitable exchanges, I think can be a solution.

I think it is just for a short time increase, buyback can solve dumping, but this is just temporary, the price of the coin will go down slowly for sure, but if you believe that their project has potential then you should keep hold.

QuarkChain announced buyback program worth 25 million USD.
If you do not believe in buybacks, let watch the situation around QKC and you will see that it really works.

Buying back tokens is good to diminish the loss from the early dumps from bounty hunters and weak hands to avoid the dump and maintain the attractiveness of the project.
But on the other hand what would happen if the share of the team's assets would grow more and more? I suppose it could lead to some obvious manipulations.

buyback will indeed have a very good effect on the project, if buyback and burn tokens, but if only buyback then it will not have too much influence on the market price

Not all forms of buybacks are well strategize, which then means they may not have real effect or influence in the price and value of the coin. Some projects that acclaim to be be doing buyback, are only doing it for few set of people, sometimes one unreal person might end up getting the price, on an exchange with very low volume, which practically means that trading will never be effective on such.
Also, if there will be a buyback for any coin, the project should have a product. Even if the product is not fully ready or that are still some developments yet to be done on it, it should at least be a minimum viable product.
In addition, a buyback should be accompanied by a serious marketing, so as to involve so many traders and investors.

Buyback must have alot of money and then double funds.team developer must have big funds for make buybacj program when they token price go down.if they want make their price stable on market.but litle condition any developer want to buyback program..often price of token determined by trader when they hasbeen list on exchange

No doubt buyback is a good option to stabilize token price. Most of the dumpers sell their token for little profit and moveon but buy back policy enables them to hold their tokens and does not courage dumpers to dump their tokens fast. Another good idea to stable token price is "burning of tokens" at any specific time. I am holding a token called HBRS, although price of token is badly affected due to dumping but still I believe price will come back to its original ICO price as they have policy of burning a specific amount of tokens for every new user who install their app. It may take one year or more but such good policies will surely stabilizes token price someday.

first, I did a buyback on the ICO token that I bought. especially after the bounty distribution, because prices will fall. but now I don't do that, many new tokens are difficult to develop up after the dump. and if there are certainly very few and require a long time.

Buying back tokens is only achievable if the project is a successful  one and all funds needed are intact,either raised through ICO or IEO,but many projects are not capable because  of funds or ICO/IEO cap not reached successfully,buyback is really a good way to prevent dumps and keep token price at a good price

I agree that buy back has a positive effect on the market. Maybe the price will not go directly up to the highest price, but the buy back program will increase the transaction volume. Investors will trust the developer team more because they are committed to protecting the interests of investors

Buyback is a good strategy which helps to hold price of token. Miracle tele used this strategy and they are have a good results.A lot of people decide to hold their tokens for the reason of company decision.

Well , buyback is quite a good thing for investors, that's true. But how is it going in Miracle Tele by the way? What are the news there? Heard something went wrong lately.

That is the negative aspect of it, if team decides to dump the tokens in the near future. However, the strategy of buying back tokens in a good one to encourage holding of the tokens and to also attract investors to the scene especially when it is coupled with the staking rewards.

if the type of promotion that you can make money with your personal expectations also other people who also want to hope both in dumper about foken that you may currently be working right.

yes for me it is a good solution when a token got dumped way too hard. Because it can make the price go higher again and at the same time, the company gets back their token at a lower price than people who bought it from their ico.

I agree that buyback programs can have a great impact on tokens' price. However, there are some other very efficient ways to protect the price:
 - temporary lock the tokens sold with high discounts / bounty hunters
 - tokens burn => this will decrease the total supply and indirectly increase the price.

Yes, I like project with the buyback rogram, it shows that they are really serious about their project, unlike other money grab project who usually dump their token once it get listed

indeed buyback scheme is verygood for the project so that the community doubts will be gone and stop fudding which it not good for the project

This is really good  decision for a new projects to run a buyback. It helps to keep the price on position and it proof the investors that team members interested and believe in own project.

But buyback program is not working on some projects. For example, Bob's repair has buyback program each week since a year ago but the price keeps dumping and dumping.

This is an awesome idea and a lot of project should follow it, but there are cases as well, when people are just too greedy to do a buyback. In my opinion, such ICO will not even have a chance to succeed, when they do not want to buyback their own tokens.

If possibly you are speaking from a short-term I will agree but if not then a worst case for any project. This may be seen as a workable tool for place like forex but if employ to cryptocurrency on a long-term will be disaster, only on short-term will be effective. Binance are more caution than we think or thought.

for short of time it will solve but for long term whenever the buyback program end the price will be suffer again for sure. Slow but sure because whenever price go down and create support level trader who wants to buy will try to reach that price again even lower so they will get a good amount of token

This mechanism of buying back seems to help the price of the token to be maintained at a relative level, it will not fall too sharply when investors and whales dump it but this strategy is only effective in the short term, when the capital of the project runs out, the price will continue to decrease. Instead of using a method that was only effective for such a short time, I think the project should try to develop the product, promote the project introduction process, then try to cooperate with many big exchanges, it will help the price of the token soon return and break out, very good for the long term

the buy back program should also have its own strategy. if the Buy back is not correct then it will not work.

Another great idea would be to pay bounty hunters with hard currencies like Ethereum or Bitcoin. And they would not have to sell their tokens received as a reward at any price.

I understand why there is a misconception that buyback of tokens is a solution to dumping and while that's often effective, most projects that are capable of offering investors and bounty hunters the buyback option are good projects which the investors will likely want to hold onto the token.

All in all i believe the best to solve the problem of dumping is creating a good project that people will want to buy into. It doesn't make sense to host a token sale only to buy back all the tokens from the investors.

I don’t think that projects should artificially keep the price. This is not effective now. Until top altcoins begin to grow, it makes no sense to pump other altcoins.
