yes I agree if bounty hunter is paid using USDT, that will keep price at market because bounty hunters will not sell at very cheap price, but it's impossible if they will pay bounty participants using USDT
Nothing is holding bounty hunters to not sell tokens and token rewards can be higher in long term. I don't know what is reason why they sell so low but they should not. We are talking around 1% tokens and I don't think this is so bad for price, there is no reason to pay in USDT.
