You know what? If the dev team is actually reading this thread, may I suggest something?
If you are worried that because of the large bounty prize you promised bounty participants is so big that you fear it will crash the market, why not release the bounties in increments for one year? I've seen other ICOs released the bounties in a three-month span. You could probably do it for year.
LOLZ, I knew this would happen. The Atlant team overestimated the demand for their tokens and the sentiment of ICO investors over traditional industries merging with blockchains. If they were able to sell more, this wouldn't be an issue. But alas, the ICO ended in the tail-end of the two-year bull rally, with lesser market participants.
So now, ATL acts like the other coins with inflation due to mining rewards. This in itself is alright, but Atlant should be aggressive in spreading out the token trading to many exchanges and increase public awareness of the project, in order to offset the inflation.
If they truly have a strong platform/product and marketing strategy up their sleeves, I still believe they can pull it off and we can still reach moon.
However, distribution that takes one year and a half is also bad. I would suggest they do bounty distribution dynamically (like what the Federal Reserve does). For example, the daily volume now is only $21,137 USD which now includes 1 million in bounty tokens. If the daily volume increases to $300,000, the team can distribute 2 million tokens this time, and decrease again if the volume goes down.
I don't know what the team's intentions are in propping up the market (maybe they want to sell too at a higher price), but it is also bad to have an inflated price with a huge undistributed supply hanging over our heads. This might cause deep market corrections.
One strategy they can consider is to distribute all of the bounty, expecting a mini crash and then announce some major release days after. This may seem devious but it does retests the actual support price where the big buyers are willing to buy.
