It is impossible to stop people from dumping ERC-20 tokens on the crypto-currencies trading market, but I think the best efficient way to prevent people from selling their ERC-20 tokens below ICO price would be to keep on developing that specific project and make that ERC-20 token become more valuable as time goes by, this would encourage people to hold on to those ERC-20 tokens for a longer period of time before selling them away on the trading market.

When a token is listed on exchange(s), what actually determines the health of the price is the demand for it. A good project will see people who missed out during the public sale, buying the coin once they get listed on the exchange, at this point there is demand and buy walls and more than the sell walls. This will definitely end up raising the price.
In a situation whereby there's no demand for the token, sell walls will definitely will be more than the buys, this forces the price down as orders that aren't getting filled at certain prices will be reviewed downwards and this continues till the price gets abysmally low in comparison to the ICO price.

The blame on bounty hunters is becoming too much. Do you think of whales at all? Bounty hunters in all only hold at most 2% of the total supply which will not significantly drop the price below ICO. Stopping it is impossible as people feel insecure when it comes to their investments in crtpro space.
Indeed most of ICO alocated less than 10% from total supply for bounty hunter and regardless blaming them because dumped the coins i think you were correct here that behind all of it there was several people who manipulated the price but very different if bounty hunter and the investors dumped the coins at the same time that i think this also will have strong influence to the price too but i think this is will never happened if people believe in the projects and dare to be the holders
If the bounty hunter's allocation is only 10%. I don't think that the effect will be very large making the coin market go down. unless most investors lack trust in the coin. because in my opinion most investors will definitely sell the tokens they buy. after the project listing in exchange. thats what makes the coin market down

It can't be stop if big investors hold their token and dump all their tokens. I think the price of tokens in the market they holding on the price and dependent of it.
this is what causes eth prices to fall very deep, investors have sold their tokens and resold their eth in the market.
very disappointed there should be regulations to maintain price stability. I am also disappointed that bounty hunters are always harmed by this kind of investor action.

it is sometimes due to bounty hunters as well investors that once the project listed in exchanges they easily withdraw it. And we can't control them doing it so.

Most of the problems really aren't people dumping other than maybe a few bounty hunters... its just on low liquidity DEX's its easy for bots to wash trade (trade amongst each other to wash the price down..).. this causes noobs to capitulate and panic sell while big players accumulate at insanely low prices.. I honestly don't think this can be stopped until DEX's find a way to have more liquidity or centralized exchanges quit charging such high prices for listings.

In my opinion this is because the number of different token increasing alot but the demand of crypto going to be lower. And that why many trader decided to sell because between total supply and demand does not parallel. To solve this situation, should be there are alot of new money come in to crypto market, and we should be promoted all benefits of crypto to attrack new many investor and trader.

Recently, a lot of ICOs are getting hit by people dumping tokens below ICO price. Some attribute the cause to bounty hunters while others blame it on excess pre-sale bonus. Who do you think is responsible and how can this be prevented?

This is really the hard truth that some bounty hunter are dumping their token once token appers in the exchange. They did this simply because they didn't believe in the project they help to promote during campaign. But, this is not good for the project. They even didn't help the token to rise.

You should know that bounty hunter are getting coins after long time of the coins listed in exchange. Presale and ICO bonus investor are the persons who are getting the coin immediately after the ICO is finished and they are the main investors who are selling in below the ICO price, this is because as they are getting discount so the price for them is below ICO and they sell it in market immediately when the coin get listed.

in my opinion, the only way to stop this is to make the ICO system KYC, so every new project that wants to make an ICO and make a project on behalf of that, must register a legitimate company (KYC) to avoid ICO scams

I don't see how kyc is going to prevent people from selliing their coin, it's the people's right to sell the coin that they own, there is nothing that we can do if the people want to sell their coin despite the price is low, and most of the time people will sell as long as they already make profit, because ICO price tends to go down really fast

Every trader has a dream to hold top cryptocurrencies they don't have any intentions to hold new altcoins, so that is why they dump their tokens in exchange of top cryptocurrencies like ETH or BTC etc. These traders can be bounty hunters and early investors who contributed during private or pre-sales & got huge bonuses. The best way to protect the dumping of tokens would be that the ICO team should lock the tokens of private investors & Bounty hunters for a certain time period. Only tokens for those investors should remain unlocked who contributed during a normal token sale as these traders won't be selling in a loss.

Generally, we can see that sales are started when the people we call bounty hunter as a result of intensive sales and investors get a satisfactory profit margin. When a lot of sales are made, the price is indirectly falling, and this price decline has a new effect on panic sales. For this reason, we can easily say that the prices have been continuously declining and falling below the ICO price.

How would you prevent people then to stop dumping when you are doing KYC. I don't think it would stop them in selling their coins below ICO price even if they do KYC. People would still sell because most likely, they want to exchange their coin as soon as possible due to the trend that the prices go down more after sometime. They just want to sell again.

If you are talking about bounty hunters dumping their coins, most of them are dumping it because they can exchange their bitcoin or ethereum to fiat by selling the tokens. To stop it, the coins should have a lock in period so that they cannot easily dump it upon listing.

The blame on bounty hunters is becoming too much. Do you think of whales at all? Bounty hunters in all only hold at most 2% of the total supply which will not significantly drop the price below ICO. Stopping it is impossible as people feel insecure when it comes to their investments in crtpro space.
although it just around 2 percent from total supply, but its action could give negative influence to investors or token holder.holder psychology could be panic when see price dumped.

Well said but I wont blame bounty hunters in this case as they are free to do what they want once they received the tokens. Without a doubt 90% or more hunters will sell the tokens once it is listed on exchange which is reasonable as they were working to promote  so they want something in return which is nothing else except money.
Real investors and holder should not he affected by the little dump made by bounty hunters, if they are affected then it will get even worst dump. The real dump comes from big sell order which is only possible being made by big holder and investors.

The investors neither the ICO team is the reason why the prices of ICO tokens are being dump once it is listed on crypto exchanges. Bounty hunters and airdrop participants is mostly the reason why ICO tokens are being dump below on it's ICO price. I think it can be prevented if the ICO's team will minimize their allocated amount on bounty rewards and limit the people that may participate in their airdrop program/s.
Maybe bounty hunters could add the problem about dumping the market price of the tokens. Somehow it is not only the bounty hunters to be the reason for this instead there are several investors who knew that the project will not go well and will dump their token holdings. As we all know that investors has the largest contributions for this dump for they are holding relatively huge tokens in their wallet.

Bounty hunters rewards are only composing of more or less 3% of the token sale so if all bounty hunters will drop then probably it will not go beyond that 3% of the market price drop. However, some of the ICO projects drop their token price to almost 20%. Again, the investors are the main reason for the dump and not the bounty hunters and airdroppers.
