The quantity of ETT tokens that are to be given to bounty hunters are just too huge that the team is probably having the second thought of distributing it.
The circulating supply is uncertain still
http://coinmarketcap.com/assets/encryptotel/ but the total supply is 77,663,987 ETT
Why would they? They made the rule in the first place and bounty hunters are doing their job to make the project successful.
If Edgeless team were able to release all the bounty, I guess it's not a problem.
And by the way, patientory bounty is also big and it will be release tomorrow based on their schedule.
