Is there any ICO that you wish you had never participated in? If so please name it. And please tell us what went wrong or what bugs you about it. Thank you.

Last one is CoinDash.

I sent my Ethereum hacker's address  ;D
I still have doubt abou those hackers though  ::)

Aren't they paying out the tokens sent to the wrong address. In which case there would be no benefit to 'hacking' it if they weren't actually

So it was most likely hackers

I failed at all ICO attempts thank god :)

Well… Create fake hacker story, get 43 000 ETH of which you don't have to explain to investors what happened to them. And if at some point you want out, say "well we had too little funds because of the hack" *shrug shoulders*.

I'm not saying that this is how they did it, just a possible scenario.

They said they'd pay.
But it is still dissappointment for every participants. Lots of investors don't trust them. Lots of scenerio talking out there.

Coindash for sure. They can't even secure own website(or maybe it was an inside job?) and instead of refund they will give you worthless tokens.

Until now it´s SONM but I have still hopes that it will be pumped once they get their shit together  ;)

well i wish i invested in ETH and waves ICO, in ETH im still dont know anything about crypto currency at that time so no idea at all thats why never invested.and when waves started thier ICO im still noobs and learning a lot of things that why im not able to join in ICO.  i only join and invest in the ICO this year.

I regret to participate in RISE ICO long time ago. Complete lost inspired at that time by bittrex founder who was a member in the foundation
Here the link :https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1445947.0;topicseen

none fortunately, but i was going to join waves, but then i stopped and i made the right choice after i see that the highest on the market was the ico price lol, would have been a bad investment, the only good ico for me were ETH and Lisk, other are shit

i havn't participate in coindash and SONM, if must choose one, that must be BNB, a ico by binance.com, the only one cause my loss this year

Not really useful to "regret".

If anything else, I failed ICO is an opportunity to learn from it, to analyze why you chose to invest in it. Was there any way to see some indicators showing a risky investment?
Just taking some time to learn and be better for the next one seems to be the best way to move on!

hmmm... nobody mentions EOS  :D

i don't know if its a  mistake joining air ico on the last moment i'm not sure if the dev still doing some effort to pumped the coin still at loss right now
if only i assess it correctly i should invest with civic instead since after it was went to exchange value went x3 bad mistake charge to experience i
think but still holding as of now.

I have the same experience with the SONM, it is a hot ICO project on this forum and a lot of members joined in the bounty. So I thought it was promising and invested in. But for now the price is 25% of the ICO price. I hope the team can do something real and I can get back my money.

A lot of people were believing with sonm but not for this time. The price is 1/5 from the ico price and does it look good for you to see it? the dev hasn't had a lot of experience to develop the token or asset. I think this time to stay away from sonm project and try to choose another best.

I did not buy many ICO tokens from different ICO projects. And SONM is the only one that make me loss for now. I think the team should do something to make investor confident for their choice.

Any ICO that raised huge sum amount of money is likely to be dumped hard at exchange!...look at BNT, SONM. I regret buying those two piece of shits

Never participated in any ICO. So, 100% no regrets  ;D .

So far no regrets for me, hopefully.
But I still ask about coindash.

Ummm actually you would have made a killing if you had invested in Waves ICO and held the tokens I believe Waves ATH was roughly 25x the ICO price.

Bancor.

Extending the ICO by 2 hours mid ICO, when they were already close to their hidden cap

a - was a BS move
b - killed any chance of a return for investors

Me and many others will be bagholding this for a long time

I agree with you, right now it is hard to look at in my Portfolio and I think the Outlook is not so great right now but no Need to sell on a loss. I think I will just hold longterm and try to Forget about this coin for at least a year or so.
If it will never break even, Í will just be happy that I´ve invested no more than I can afford to lose and see it as a lesson learned the hard way  ;D

ICOs are very risky by nature, there is always the disclaimer: "Don't invest more than you can loose" so there should be no regret just learning

My worst ICO is coindash. I was wrong to invest in this ICO project and lost a lot of money. Currently, I am still puzzled by this ICO project because I'm not sure if this project can be reopened again

Hi Duyic,

Did you send your eth after the announcement was made that the site was hacked?
Other than that you will receive a compensation.

First Edgeless, I regret that I did not invest in Edgeless 5 months ago, because EDG is now very popular and the price is 3 times from ICO.
Second, WeTrust, the time was almost simultaneous with Edgeless but I forgot and chose another ICO, now TRST is a good prospect coin.
