After the distribution of token and had listed in the exchange a massive dumping would be a possibility to happen not only by the hunters and also by the investors that is the probable reason why it is dropping after an ICO end.
Hunters are just a handful of tokens they are holding, so if they are patient, over time the hunters sell out tokens, the price will increase, but the main factor behind the price is often lower than the ICO. Because the project was unsuccessful and not really useful to consumers.

After the distribution of token and had listed in the exchange a massive dumping would be a possibility to happen not only by the hunters and also by the investors that is the probable reason why it is dropping after an ICO end.
Some of the dumps came from investors who bought at the pre-sale.
as we know most of the ICO price at pre-sale tend to be cheaper and they provide bonus tokens. So that these investors will easily get profits by dumping their tokens when listed on an exchange.

for me i guess this dropping of prices will all be due to some investors and bounty hunter selling their investments as soon as the ICO ends, and sometimes alts are being listed on a bad exchange that make other investors lose trust on it.
I have taken part of some ICOs and everytime their token price goes down after the ICO.. why is that so?

Facing this kind of thing we should have started to get used to dealing with it calmly because we have often encountered various altkoin from the ico project which ended at a price very far from the price of ico after being registered in exchange and you can minimize losses if you always monitor price movements tokens after being registered in an exchange because usually the initial price after entering the exchange still has a fairly high exchange rate then the price will decline and last long enough below the price of ico and if you experience this it is better to save and hold.

I have been into different ICO's already and that's what i have always experienced too. That's when the ICO got caught up during the market crash and others are also dumping their token holdings too.
They are forced to dump their tokens. Most of the ICO investors are only into chase for the profits.When a whale who invested to that ICO sees that the drop would start soon, he's starting to dump his tokens to prevent more losses.
It seems to me that the members of the community are all beginning to accuse the Bounty Hunters of falling prices, but in any case this is not so. I understand the negative statements in the direction of bounty hunters.
Would be refreshing to hear some bounty hunters comments here as well. Because, yeah, right now a lot of heat goes towards them regarding the prices falling after the ICO.
In this vein, I will only be speaking for myself, but I am sure a lot of bounty hunters are like this. Nonetheless, the team should always be considerate enough when issuing out bonuses to the investors, huge bonuses sometimes, will always lead to tokens being dumped to shake out weak hands by the whales.

There is a lot of reason for sure. The no.1 reason behind that is the hounty hunter not all but most of them are selling their coins once they got their token and listed to the market and other people who purchased token sell also token once the token listed. But they have some scenario that project can cause of dumping the value.
Aside from the Op's mentioned post from this thread, ICO's tend to pay tokens for advisors and other members of their team and some of them don't have some lock-up period to ensure no one is dumping large amounts of tokens you can't imagine how much they are paying them aside from regular cryptos like bitcoin and Eth, others from bounty hunters but that will also depend on the allocation of the campaign.
but, in my opinion token price dropping after ICO is because at the private sale period most of project give a huge bonus for their early investors,,
and this investors dump their token early,,, i hope the lock period will be for private sale investors too, not only for the team or advisors from the project
2018 in my opinion the year to invest after the ICO is finished. start buying coins / tokens with a good concept and wait a month after the exchange is registered, the price will drop. why does this happen, because the market is bearish, now is the time for market correction whether to go up or down. stay cool and strong friend 
Based on the fact that investors at ICO receive huge bonuses, it makes sense for them to immediately sell all received coins, and at the same time receive the necessary profit. Too large a bonus and also the bounty provided will indeed be a threat to the market to be declining. that's the reason why many ico experience a big decline when they are listed on the market
- I do not think the reward for a bounty is a big problem because it only accounts for a very small part of the project, even bounty hunters also have no chance to sell tokens when they received the reward at a very late time, so the problem is not in the bounty. I very doubt the problem is the investors, they gradually realized that the projects were no longer too attractive and no longer profitable, especially in a very bad market situation like now, selling quickly when there is profit is their decision, they want to ensure safety and not loss but that thought has led to the collapse of the token after it is listedI also always meet negative information regarding Bounty Hunters. What are we to blame? The price of a coin cannot fall because of us, because even the total pool for a Bounty company rarely exceeds 2% of the total amount of coins. 2% of coins can not affect pricing. In addition, if the project is really promising, then a sane person will never sell the coin at low prices.
Yes, that makes sense as well. If only 2% of the tokens in circulation are handed to bounty hunters, then it is such a small fraction of the whole token distribution amount. It might be hard for them to have a big impact on the token price.

Some reasons from my person:
1. Early investors dumping with little profit because of bonuses for them.
2. Bounty hunters dumping after token hit first exchange.
3. Some bad news come out about the project or team.
4. Whole crypto market situation and sentiment.

I go with first point as they are the ICO investors who get the coin first and when the coin hit the exchange they are the one who sell the coin in any price as you stated they get coins with discount so their purchasing price becomes low and when the coins goes below ICO price then also they are in profit due to bonus.
But even then everyone blames on bounty hunter when they clearly know that the bounty hunters are the coin who get coin very late even after coin hit the exchange they get after some time till then coin price goes down and the bounty coin worth become very low.

I did not see the discount of the token after the ICO affected by the bounty. You say the bonus is too big? It is only 100-300k and equates to 1% of total ICO revenue. So the fall of the tokens is due to the market going down, unrelated to the bounty and the bounty huntersWould be refreshing to hear some bounty hunters comments here as well. Because, yeah, right now a lot of heat goes towards them regarding the prices falling after the ICO.
secure out profits specially for those who bought on pre-sale but basing on the most common situation do happen on each project now.I can barely see to investors on making profits on a short time with ICO methods but rather they do lose up some amounts on their investment for sure.
