Liquidity means bigger market cap hz cant go much lower so needs bigger price move up

Liquidity is the major factor, more so than price. I would think that most use cases of HZ would require being able to exchange back and forth between other currencies/tokens with ease and minimal slippage.

but it does help for higher price

Not necessarily. There are a lot of use cases where the price of HZ doesn't matter, and even some where a low price is favorable.

getting more people involved and using the platform will need the price to go up alot

You can use your old nodes up until block # 515,000

I believe the script has been updated for 5.2, but let me get confirmation from CBKR.
In the meantime, you can use your nodes with the current version you are running them on until then!

If I'll start using 5.2 now, will I get node bounty or it is mandatory only after 515000 block?

Fine. Thank you

At long last, the next client update is available for the public!
We have also added a .exe installer to make installing Horizon less of a technical hassle. Also, keep in mind that the latest version of Horizon will require you to update to Java 8.

Please note that the installer does include JRE8 in it!

This update will force a hard fork at block # 515,000
You will also need to update your nodes by this block to the current version to continue receiving bounties as long as distribution continues.

We have a lot of other projects and news that will be dropping in the coming weeks to follow, so stay tuned to see what we have been working on all this time, and  will be rolling out next. It's been a long time in the making, and we are very excited to finally release them to the public and focus on the next chapter for Horizon.

With distribution near completion, our focus moving forward for Horizon will be getting more people involved and using the platform, with an emphasis on the foundation that was set up a couple months back. We will continue to update the client, but our focus now turns to getting more people involved, and exposure for the platform. The platform infrastructure, and long standing reputation of the project will serve as a basis for further asset development and new partnerships with businesses to take Horizon to the mainstream public.

Thanks to everyone who has stuck around over the past year. Join us while we take the next step in the blockchain revolution.

I disagree with you here. We have over 1.5 years of records of a fair distribution model, and any issue that has come up with the nodes has always been resolved. CBKR has stated several times that he did not wish to make that code public, and nor myself or anyone else will push him to do so. If he wants to make it open source, that will be his decision.
I will forward him along this conversation, and he can come to his own decision. 
It is possible there is a bug, as there have been in the past which were resolved.

I think - it is buggy. Please publish it as open-source (without private keys!). Github preferred. We (the HZ community) can review it, and correct, if it is open-source.
Recently is the "bounties" rather a gambling, and not a "fair distribution".

I think also - this bug does not depend on NRS Version, what the Node uses. It is simple bug(s) in script.
I would like to help... But without source?

What version are they running?

It was created by CBKR and is not open source as it is unique to Horizon for distribution.

Where is the source of this script? Is it open-source?
("Fair Distribution" => should be open-source...)

about every 2nd node received no payment today 

It is very close for a wide release, yes. We have not pasted it around yet, as we are taking a fine comb through a couple things. 

I think it is released. You can pull it from github, and it works. I forged some HZ with it - you can see it:

Once it is released, yes.

I think it should be paid.
I become no bounties (one day), if I transfer some HZ to my account. (I think this is a bug in bot...)
If I made no transaction for a day - bounties will be payed...

Will node checker recognize v5.2 and node bounties will be paid for nodes running 5.2?
