I was once an investor had few gains to some ICO/crowdsale but made many losses so I decided to stop participating in ICO instead I do bounties and buy it thru exchanges from bounty hunters dumping it.
I know for a fact that most of you know this situation and are guilty of it, price tends to tank due to bounty hunters selling their share of tokens for cheap. I think its better to pay hunters in eth or other alts rather than risking the price of their token or coin in that way they could also help their investors and boost confidence to their future and their project. Well for me a falling price is a mark of a failing project "ICO's"
I think you're wrong in this one.. Most of the time.. when a token is listed on exchange it looks as if hunters are the ones doing the dumping. But it has been proven times without number that private sales and presale investors are the real dumpers not bounty hunters... hunters in most cases... do not have enough token to bring down the price of a coin
Another scenario of token getting dumped is a situation when the team are not truthful with the amount money raised.. they'll make bogus claims of how they've raised millions of dollar.. from investors only to get listed on exchange and then you'll notice those investors they claim to have are imaginary
