It's widely known that the biggest dumpers are presale and private investors who get big discounts in ICOs. In your example, you are talking about one investor who gets a 25% bonus, which is relatively low considering that there are ICOs where early investors can get 50% or higher bonuses. They can easily sell their tokens, get profit and buy again at a much lower price.
I agree. Some people has false accusations with bounty hunters who really are dumpers but the fact is presale and private investors are the one who dump more. Bounty hunters only get small amount of tokens from bounty programs without bonuses so if hunters dump tokens there is no massive impact in the market. Plummet is caused by massive dump from big players like what whales does to gain huge profit.

That's true because if you are going to look the percentage of token bounty allocations you'll see that the percentage of it is not so high compared to allocation for public sale .
Today IEO is trendy and after this process exchange token is gonna to be dumped. You know, after kucoin IEO exchange token is dumped like 50%!!! Can't believe! It is a lottery with high fee to pay!
But I did not see it in binance. So, a big drop in bnb after IEO. If the IEO has so much influence on the kucoin, it should continue without stopping.
Not all the hunters are business oriented and many of them participating in many projects at the same time
and when they get rewarded they just dump their coins and do not checking how perspective that coins is.
Of course not all of them dump, there are those who are following the project and even invest in it if they
find it high potential. Early investors are taking the profit and dump their coins as well, that is not questionable.
The initial dumped of tokens on exchanges are from investors in Pre-sale and TGE. It's normal as almost all investors want to have profit that's why they invest. Some investors are not for long-term and we can't blame them as we are different financially. As for the project it is bad however, pump and dump is normal as it is part of liquidity.
The most common reason for the fall of the token price list to exchangers is the sale of token holders immediately, and yet another exchangers who are less known or exchangers with low volumes when they are in tokens. Therefore, ICO and its exchangers will be in the top 20 exchangers to ensure that investors and token holders to have profits.
There are thousands of reasons why the token is dumped after its first listing, but the main reason in my opinion is the lack of advertisement after the ICO is over. There are simply no more people left that want to buy their tokens.
indeed the marketing strategy can be the most important thing to be able to make the price of the cryptocurrency rise but usually when the token has been entered in the exchange place is a lack of attention from the developer so that the price cannot rise.

Yeah, the team usually say the dump is because many hunters sell their token on the exchange.
But they don't realize that if investors find more attracting ICO, they can dump the token too.
The allocation of bounty reward usually not too much nowadays, so it shouldn't make the price dump.

Yes i agree with you, that tokens are dumped in the market by the investors not bounty hunter, alokasion for bounty only 1-3% and will be split with many participant, but for investors on average 40-60, that's include bonus. So who controls the market are investors, and bounty hunter only follow the market condition
Yes, you are right. If there is no rule for the investor to sell all of their tokens, the price will not get dump too hard, and even if bounty hunters sell all of their tokens, they cannot make the price getting down too deep. But the truth is bounty hunters sell their token because they want to convert the token to ethereum and then sell the ethereum to make money or they will save the ethereum as their investment.
Most of the time, the reason why the tokens become dumped is because of bounty hunter, that get an enormous percentage of token and those investors who get big amounts of bonus. Well, if the project is good, the dump will vanished in no time.
Yes, you are right, it is very difficult for bounty hunter and airdrop participants to reduce the price. Because they are usually given 0.1%. The coins, which had a lower value, could not completed enough funds.
indeed the allocation for airdrop or bounty campaign participants is very small but you have to know, not always that makes them cryptocurrency prices fall, sometimes the price of the ico on the exchange falls because the ico project is not well developed and the platform becomes useless.
I feel it is due to the unnecessary hypes and praises sang during pre sale
Which attracted a lot of investors (profit oriented type) to the project
So once it lists, both airdrops, bounty and pre sale and crowdsale token holders wants to bag the profit
Well; the wise always buy the dip

You are absolutely correct. Most investors are in cryptosphere for the money and ico projects are not helping out .
They keep giving outrageous amount of discount to investors.
I am not saying that giving discounts is not good but it should be moderate.
I have seen an ico that gave over 50% discount and they still expect that the coin is not dumped on listing to an exchange.
Again people dump when they do not believe in the project.

Even if ICO is successful with low-token exchangers ililist of ico teams it is likely that the outcome is dump tokens, not bounty hunters and cause dump tokens but investors who sell tokens immediately because they are the first to receive of the tokens and the late bounty hunters. Another reason is the cheap exchanges that I had earlier said earlier.That's so for the ICO to get the top 20 oh top 10 exchangers they list.
I've always been aware that bounty hunters are not to blame for a dump. I also believe that the investors who bought their tokens with a big bonus are the people who dump the token for provit.
I support your point on this issue of bounty hunters dump after ICO, is actually wrong rather the blame should go those investors who invest heavily on project for project and then go back to dump,what is coming to bounty hunters is very minimal in most cases.
It Is simple, after a successful ICO, investors(private and presale) who got huge bonus, airdroppers who got free tokens and bounty hunters are all expecting to sell their tokens upon listing. Including team members with unlocked tokens. So it's only usually to witness dump after ICO sales and exchange listing
The lack of advertisement after a successful TGE, because investors are waiting and nobody else getting news about this project. The second reason are bounty hunters, that should be better paid in stable coins or in ETH/BTC to prevent big dumps.
Yes you are on point i will add one two more points in your topic, one is that from last one year what ever the tokenomics or even the icos without bounty the prices have still dumped so i guess its about overall market volume and demand in the market secondly in last one year bounty hunters have not received any decent reward so question of dumping in big numbers just gets diluted. I think this question and debate will continue till there is ico and bounty.
Well, you guys are right on the spot, nevertheless I feel that this old discussion doesn't end up with one side to blame... probably both early investors and bounty hunters are to blame for the dumping...
Early investors/private sale, etc recieve huge bonuses, sometimes 50-60% of ICO price, so, even if the token reaches the market at a relative low price, most of times they can still make money... as the ICO market degradated and the scam/failure risk got higher, it is understandable that the main ICO investors would get happy with 20-30% immediate profit and then jump to the next ICO. For the same reason, a lot of hunters try to sell their small part because they have seen their work turn into worthless too many times...
The problem with ICOs is mainly the lack of trust and the lack of experience from most teams
