They should not release this so soon... they should at least wait a few weeks before doing that... but indeed if they release the bounty distribution then it will give some pressure on the price and that won't be good as some people will lose some trust here.
The first bounty distribution is worth about 150 BTC. That won't do any harm at all.
150 BTC is almost 10% of the buy support on Poloniex, i would say, that will hurt a lot. In fact buy support just dropped below 1700 BTC now.... Putting those 150 BTC on the market will crash the price.
PS: Believe me, i'm more experienced then you on that topic

A 150 BTC dump wouldn't even bring us to 0.0006.
1. Not everyone will dump immediately, or even at all.
2. That's hardly a "crash".
I don't agree with that... but it is not my coin...
