What is the best and safest ICO to invest in right now?
Never tried any ICO before despite having tempting reviews about them.  Why do you think your recommendation is worth our investment?
 I will bookmark this thread to remind us in the future what we recommended.

I put 1000 Euro in Wagger. Safe? Are you kidding me, I kissed the Eurofiat good buy first! There is no safe ICO, forget about it!

Wagerr, you mean?

https://mysterium.network/ - this one has ENDED, they should have next sale in 2019, they want to create a decentralized VPN, everything encrypted - their platform works now

https://www.tezos.com : Jul 1st

https://wagerr.com/ - cuz of betting

https://www.adex.network/ - they want to create advertisment network, dunno when is token sale.

I don't want to be held responsible for any of these tokens that you invest in!

Rather do your own research and make your own conclusions, we all know how these tokens can end up.

Hello,

I believe this query of yours does not have a clear answer.
To begin with, the average individual is not looking to assist you with investment choices. He will usually want to be in on a trade single handedly to derive maximum benefit from it. Additionally, the kind of research that goes into finding the idea ICO requires resources. Individuals might not be good hearted enough to share said research for free with you .

Generally speaking, I believe the industry is in a bubble phase right now. Most start-ups are raising far more than they require and due to the same, they will not be able to produce the kind of returns the average investor expects today. In -14/15 the average raise was anywhere between 500k-1M, today that sum is all the way up at 20M at the least. These are inflated, over valuated companies that stand no chance in reaching a billion dollar valuation within a time frame of 2-3 years. Due to the same, the "safe" bet is to stay away from the markets.

However, if you want to take risks, the best bet is to consider the following

1. Founding team - Experiences, pedigree, past performances, vision and skills
2. Product-Market fit - Does the solution actually make sense or is it a fad ? Is the value proposition unique ?
3. Traction - If the product has a MVP, consider how many users it currently has. Consider product stickiness (ie : repeat customers) and profit margin
4. Runway - How long can the start-up run with the funds raised. Will it be enough to really sustain ? Will the start-up become profitable by said period. Will follow on funding lead to dilution of my holding ?

I personally wouldn't shill any coins here, but these are some fundamentals you can keep in the back of your head.

Happy Investing!

Recently Invested in DCORP.
Great community with very active developers with a nice roadmap.
There are still a few days of funding left.
They put a 9million cap on the ico, something more developers need to do more often(https://medium.com/@WhalePanda/i-was-wrong-about-ethereum-804c9a906d36 (https://medium.com/@WhalePanda/i-was-wrong-about-ethereum-804c9a906d36)
 

Here is their thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1928628.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1928628.0)

It was mentioned in this interesting read on how to stabilize the BTC and ETH markets.
I really believe this project is going places within the next year.

I don't want to give you a name of a coin since if it flops you might blame me for what happened to your money. For you to know which coin to pick, first there should be a genuine interest for it and not just some paid shills standing up for the coin. Next is a clear roadmap and a good dev team transparent to any queries that their peers raise and very approachable whenever it comes to serious questions about technicalities of the coin.

Mostly these are the traits of a good coin to invest on. There are many coins there that are made just for the pockets of their devs and not really for the greater good. Good luck!

Suncontact is one of the ICO to invest in for now. If you go through they Ann thread you will understand what I am talking about. I will. also recommend creamcoin as it will soon be listed in Bittrex, I expect the price to pump up any moment from July.

Here is a great post about ICO research: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1923939.msg19087583#msg19087583

Tezos the way to go giong to raise a huge amount of money though. if your looking for something sooner status.

safest ICO = oxymoron.

The safest ICO to participate in is none of them. :P Just wait for the coin to hit exchanges and find it's true price.

To me, ICO's are just another way to scam people with vaporware.

How many people are googling oxymoron coin right now?

I think it is ok to buy 100 coins of Wagerr or SONM.
It's a small investment. Like a couple of powerball tickets.
Definitely a gamble but who knows, it might hit.
I would love 100 coins of BTC, ETH, LTC right now.

I advise you to postpone this idea until the end of the summer.
At the moment, there are practically no interesting projects with an attractive investment component.

You are advertising it, friend

Lol, there are many ICOs that have started and many ICOs that will start very soon.

Please do your own research before and after taking the recommendation from us here.

And don't put all your savings money into ICOs as sometimes these can disappoint us.

Lol X[) That's funny dude, watch it pop up in the ANN next week.

There is nothing called safe when you try to invest your money. Risk is always there and you have to be very wise and afford to lose so that you can earn some money if you make a right decision. ICO is not safe but I do believe that 80% of ICOs brings profit to investors. Look at the chart and you will see. Most of them gain value after being listed on an exchange

U did fair bit of research: astralship.org/ico

This link: https://icostats.com/vs-eth

Immediately after being listed - value usually drops and then rebounds... BAT is obviously a notable exception.

But I'm a terrible trader, right now rebalancing my portfolio and putting on autopilot: https://steemit.com/@genesisre

I suggest you to invest in DCORP .I think it must be success.you can  see their review in this thread also https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1928628.0

Yup well played and pretty funny  :D

@OP
This question is posted non stop.. just read the other topics asking.

I put a BTC into WAGERR, but I'll be honest with the amount they're raising I believe most of them are scams taking advantage of the current mania. It reminds me of the IPO craze during the dot com bubble where the insiders would lock in their share purchases at low prices and they'd hit the market up 200% in a day.  This was all well and good until the dot com bubble burst.. then all that went away. Eventually that will happen here. For now, enjoy the ride... let's hope the total market cap can break through the old high.. I'm not ready for a dot com burst yet. I'll give WAGERR credit for having a well done website and professional presentation though, which is something all coins are not the best at (cough.. xtrabyte's new website cough..)

In any case I'm positioned in the coins I expect to perform the best anyways, with my top holdings being NEM, Ardor, and VIA, though honestly I think the ignored Pascal Coin has more potential than any of these from a pure tech perspective combined with low market cap. Account numbers, blockchain trim, what's not to love? (besides the name).. I'm just happy I got my zip code as an account number. The chances of finding that randomly were pretty low.

OP and everyone else looking for ICOs really need to do their research, its cool to give suggestions which you then look up yourself but everyone is just going to hype up their own purchases rather than give you an honest opinion. For me I'm looking forward to civic, funfair and skincoin.

none of these ICO's are safe every one of them , but i prefer dcorp and primalbase probably just because solid looking project and professional devs , what else lol ? i never invested on any ICO because still on low earning , probably trying trading guys , its less risky lmao

The safest you could try may be blockpool. The team is backed by Ark dev team which we know have proven themselves when they did with ark. Ark was $0.03 when released buf rapidly grew just after it. Dumpers dumped by the price went up still.  The blockpool TEC weren't advertised well but we soon see how it blows the mind of investors who ignore it.

I am not sure anyone who want to put his name on the line. Even the developers themselves are not 100% sure of what the future holds for the current project they are working on. However, we all make educated guesses and then we hope to be right in those guesses. There are some projects that I personally have interest in some are ongoing while some are yet to start their ICOs. Suncontract is one while DCORP is another one to look out for based on my own subjective view.
