I am new to ICO investing. I invested 1 btc in adel coin ICO and it has turned into 2.3 btc. I am wondering if ICO's are a sureshot way to get massive returns?

I do not have big capital to invest like you. Advise to be more careful about choosing ICO. Make sure the dev is trusted and transparent in the project.
I think that's a big income.
Congrats ...

Always be careful while investing in ICO because sometimes ICO are scam and not successful . Maie a research so you can know what is the legit and have potential to become successful in the future. I suggest invest to the iCO have escrow so you make sure that your bitcoin is safe. Goodluck I hope you can see ICO thats gives you high profit.

Your previous ICO is good keep up the goodwork dude. But invest only you can afford to lose.

I am not big trader or  i dont invest more into trading or ICO . But as I am following bitcointalk for  some months seeing lots of ICO campaigns and some giving profit some are becoming complete scam . before investing search and make sure about ICO announcing companies are trust worthy.

The answer to your question is: absolutely no. Actually they are the riskiest investment possible in this space, since the developer should not refund you in case of hacking, fraud, failure of the project and so on.

Everything around crypto is gambling

Not all of the ICO will give you High return there is always a risk loosing your money it is like gambling, so don't put all your money when you try to invest in any ICO.

Yes it is better option when ICO's are in pre-phase. What I mean with this is, ICO's are great when they just launched due to their advertising and marketing strategies. In this phase they will greatest volume of BTC being traded for tokens. After the launch they get amazing valuation leading you to sell your tokens on higher sides of trades. This is a strategy and whoever applies it gets profited always. Sometimes, few of the ICO's get good response for later stages also for example, publishing ICO project nationwide, launching new contracts for the ICO's etc. However some of them will go down with price and may get dumped but this you will come to know as soon as it starts happening. So overall my review about the ICO is, yes they are profitable if you invest at right time.

NOT AT ALL.
if you earned a profit once that doesn't mean it will be repeated again. to be honest in most cases you have a much better chance if you play a dice game instead! seriously, just put the money in and roll on 2x, you will have a better chance.

some people say you have to research the dev, the project, etc and while that is all good but none of it is going to change much about your ability to speculate the final price of your ICO tokens. the risk is lowered by a little bit, which won't change the final result.

Nope, not at all. I wouldn't invest in any ICO these days unless code has already been released. Whitepapers aren't enough, team members aren't either.

There is no sureshots in crypto, only probabilities. Split your bankroll and try to calculate risks/rewards - thats the way to go if you dont want to end up with 0.

I would say yes, but only if you invest in right ICOs. But this is quite impossible. Nevertheless, you can try. Invest in ICO that have good reputation, like replies on thread, good plan, people talking about them, nice amount of pages on bitcointalk ann thread (not necessary). Avoid shady-looking ones. If you get them right, you actually often get like x2 from the investment at least.

Thats really big investment dude and its really huge profit. Well for me icos is the best investment though lets just be careful about those scam coin but as long as you know what you are investing on then its okay. I do invest if i do have a spare btc on icos so that i could from it. We could really earn profit from it , if you invest big then the return is really bigger.

They're safe as long as you do adequate research on the project and the developer team behind it, so as to avoid potential scams.
There have been many ICOs which have turned into huge successes. The majority of their tokens go at least 2x their ICO price when they hit the exchanges.

Every investment there's a risk so better to check the background of the ICO the project itself and the developer and it is good to read more if the ICO is legit. Because some ICO are not succeeding in their crowdsale so it is better to choose the best ICO to invest with.

No the best is to buy a old coin on exchange and hold it like 1 year.
If you invested 1 btc in eth,your profit is 10 btc.

Every investment is a risk. No investment is safe. I think people should know this before anything. After this, anything is possible. It could be luck and win big but be prepared to also lose if it happens.

Investing in coins is risky you need to be careful on what you are investing for. Because if the coin is dead you are losing your money. Take a deep research on which alt coin you may like to invest for.

There is no sure shot way to make money but if you are really careful and look at all the promising ICO's and follow their slack channel then you are sure you could make a good profit and there are many promising initial coin offer which could give you a good return.Always use your due diligence before investing.

No, they're not safe. But they can be profitable if you find the right one. Don't invest in ICOs with money you can't afford to lose.

I cannot agree more. There are fail ICO projects because of diffent reasons such as team broken, though many ICOs collected a lot of money.

No this is no safe investment!Actually it's more like a bubble which will burst sooner or later.
So I would be very very careful with those ICOs. Most of them are obviously scams by the way.
Sooner or later when this house of cards implodes people will realize this.
So don't get too greedy, take your profits at the right time (don't wait too long, meaning for your 20x return) and get of of that crazy ICO stuff.

There is no sureshot way to make money in crypto . Do some research and try to understand the tech.
