There was a previous bounty that ended less than 24 hours ago (as of this writing).

There is a grace period of 24 hours at the end of the bounty to give the bounty setter time to award the bounty.

As there can only be one bounty on a question at any one time I can only assume that this means that you can't start your own until the full 24 hours have passed.

This section of the FAQ explains how bounties work, but doesn't include the 24 hour grace period.

  • I did check before asking. Please consider to update it with 24 hour grace period info.

    @Gror I opened a feature request on Meta Stack Overflow asking for an update to the FAQ.
