This is the most brutal bounty distribution I've ever experience. the moment you will receive your rewards, it'll be too late. the price will likely decrease up to -90% unless you have a very good project in your hands which is rare nowadays. the start of distribution will become a competition of who will sell their tokens first. you kate to sold it in an hour, you will lose some big amount. that's how it works when it comes to this kind of distribution.
I think it's a bit common nowadays, I remember last 2017 when I was still a bounty hunter, The dump after the distribution is not happening every time because most of the project devs before have a strong belief in their project and the devs are putting their best to avoid the sudden price dump after distribution. Then 2018 comes, it's the time that good projects are rarely to be seen and scamming are happening side by side, worthless tokens being distributed and the trust of investors was gone.
yes i agree back in the day bounty distribution was not that big of an issue. It has become very common to blame the bounty hunters for the dump. Majority of the bounty campaigns doesn't have large chunk of tokens allocated towards bounty distribution.
And out of thousands only few hundred bounty hunters who got good ranks get rewards that worth something. Most of the time whales are responsible for the dump.
Secondly if the bounty distribution was to be done in stages it should be clearly stated at the start of the campaign. So that there are no issues in the later stages.
