Devs should stop blaming bounty hunters for dumping ,they work hard to promote your projects and they have every right to do what they like with the tokens if this is really what you don't want then
Don't pay bounty hunters in your tokens ,pay them in USD ,USDC or ETHEREUM to avoid dumping your tokens and that will have positive impact on your tokens ,dumping will always happen and if the project is a strong one then it will quickly recover
The original, brilliant idea of spreading the word/advertising organically, via the Internet still works, particularly when large crowds focus their intent on a sustained daily/weekly basis. However, this continued "bear" market in cryptocurrencies has lasted long enough to distort the average participant/enthusiasts' perception to the point where a lot of people are asking themselves if this is all worth it (capitulation?) We don't see this sort of massive, focused advertising, such as found in bounties, anywhere else but in crypto. Hmm. Makes you wonder why it feels like we are all collectively barking into the void/wind. Bounty activity is the BEST kind of Internet advertising in the world, yet it's going nowhere, world-wide. What's going on?
The cause of the sustained bear market in cryptos is no different than the sustained bear markets in any other asset that directly competes with the current fiat world reserve currency for dominance. As has been the case nearly every time this millennium, the group with 'unlimited' resources has managed to come out on top somehow, up until now. The Internet is breaking the monopoly. It's up to us regular folks to recognize this and take advantage.
Generations and generations (millions?) of progress have been wasted/thwarted under the yoke of oppression we are still witnessing today. Despite their 'unlimited' resources and throwing everything and the kitchen sink to avoid a change in the status quo, our tiny group of crypto-enthusiasts compared to the size of the worlds' population is causing such a gigantic response from our 'handlers', perceptive individuals see that simply continuing on the course we are on as the eventual bridge to our dreams of individual and sovereign freedom.
If we have these bastards this nervous so early in the inevitable paradigm shift, it should not surprise anyone that if we keep pressing ahead and spreading the word like prophets, our efforts will lead to generational profits.
