Im a newbie here, I need some help out of you who are investing on ICO, I want to invest but I dont know how. Please be kind to explain to me what are the steps to invest in an ICO? Thank for your kind answers it is a really big help for me, I really appreciate it.

Find an ICO you believe in.

Follow the instructions on the page. If the instructions aren't simple enough, it may be a warning sign.

Go through different ICO reviewing sites and find suitable one with good rating.

Purchase some Ethereum because most of the new project only accepts ETH.

Now send those ETH to contract address of that token (be sure to only send ETH to official contract address).

Don't send ETH from exchanger wallet, you should send ETH from ETH address created with myetherwallet so that you can view tokens you will receive after sending those ETH to contract address of the project.

After you will get tokens, now you have to add custom token in your Myetherwallet dashboard using parameters given by the project.

After this you will see your tokens and you can send those tokens/coins to any of the eth address you like. To exchanger's deposit address after some exchange platform will list tokens you have bought.

First of all you need to do your research and find an ICO you want to invest in. If you are looking to invest in an ICO I recommend checking out Propthereum.io, an asset backed cryptocurrency on the blockchain. Proceeds raised from their ICO will be used to purchase A-grade property worldwide. This property will generate a rental income and underlying value for the PTC token holder. Propthereum.io is the first coin in the world to be backed by property. The great thing about this concept is that the coin will always increase in value. They are live now so you can invest. Check out their whitepaper to find more information about their business plan.

Choose an ICO that suits you best. Find that out by doing research on the ICO through whitepaper and checking sites that review that ICO, and examples are below:

Bitcointalk : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php
ICOtoINVEST : https://icotoinvest.com/
CoinSchedule : https://www.coinschedule.com/
icoRating : http://icorating.com/

An important part of your research would be looking into the Team that will and making sure it is solid and that they can support and maintain the project and it's community!

A good and current example below:

I would suggest trade.io that is a new Blockchain Trading platform. It's currently on PRE-ICO and doing very well.
It's soft cap was $5M and they are on their way to hitting $10M in less than 2 weeks. With the help of their solid team, they will achieve a great many things. This is only the beginning for trade.io. You can find them at the links posted below.

To invest in Ico, you need to have ether balance in your wallet as mostly the Icos are ERC20 and they only accept contribution from ethereum.
Next, visit the Ico registration page and fill details. Copy contract address of Ico and send your ether to the copied address.
Now when their is distribution time, you will automatically receive tokens in your etgereum wallet.
Note that you must use myetherwallet.com to be able to receive tokens, exchange wallets doesn't support tokens.

Invest in ICO is high risk high return investment, so before jump it you should do some research of the project, learn the fundamental of the project like understanding aim of the project and personality the team founder. And to invest in ICO is easy just make deposit to address of project, and for ICO that use smart contract Ethereum, you should be have personal wallet like MyEtherWallet to receive the token. But for more information you should be join their official telegram chat so you can ask there.

Investing in an ICO is very simple. Choose any ICO you want to invest and wait for their crowd sale and hit Buy. You can use any mode of payment because almost all ICOs accepts cash, debit and credit cards, money transfers and remittances etc. And you're good to go.

find the ICO site in the ANN thread. register and transfer your funds, and you get a token, that's it.

If you already have tokens that you received from bounty campaigns but you prefer other ICOs to invest then you'll have to buy Ethereum for transaction gas. Then there you go, invest any Altcoin as you like

   You say, you are a newbie with 56 Activity?huh you should be the one telling us how to invest in ICOs not the other way round.

Basically, always write on the official website of the project, it happens that they produce video reviews with a detailed description of the project's input

If you are wanna investing on the ico and you should be joined in the chat group i think that every ico will try to make a guide to the investors to be able invest their money into the ico.
I've made 10x from my investment from confido and the next will be spectre.

Read the terms and conditions on their website. If they don't have any, that could be a problem. See what it is that you are contractually granted. I've seen ICOs that promise a ton in the WP, but the T&C will state that token buyers do not have any rights.

First of all you should make research to be sure in project. When you chose some particular project you should go to their site and click something like "Make contribution". After that you will be redirected to instruction about how to invest. NEVER use any contribution address not from the main site of the project.

The following are the steps that I follow when I am planning to invest my money into any ICO:
1. Look at the project that they are building. Does it really require a blockchain or the team is tehre there for the money.
2. Check the background of all the team members associated with it.
3. Hardcap, this is important, we need to see if the team is greedy or if they are genuine and will continue to work on the proejct after the ICO is completed.

so you have to choose the ICO you want to follow, after choosing you must fill out the registration form listed on the ICO tread and you must follow the given command.

Simple steps:
Read the instruction they have it.
1.Otherwise, you have to create wallet (for example - my ether wallet, or one of the wallets they recommeded),
2.Than you have to have some amount of eth or btc
3. Put your eth or btc on your wallet where you can change it with ICOs tokens
4. How to change eth or btc to ICOs tokens? Go to ICOs website and copy their address, than put it in your wallet, change it with eth or btc by commend make a transaction (before that chack every step you have made and the right gas limit, they put in in white paper.

Easy way, just follow these steps :)

if it's an ERC20 token you invest using Ethereum although some of those ICO's also allow BTC coming in. You can also have seperate blockchain tokens. Look it depends per ICO. Check the rules and the steps to invest in your ICO.

You need to visit the website the one you are interested to join . there are guide there how to join in the ICO in thier website and what wallet you need to use. but of course you need to have ETH balance first there are also a ETH address where you need to send to join.

First of all you should realize that investing into ANY ICO is a very risky thing. Many ICOs announce pre-sale of their tokes — take part in it getting these coins for the less price to sell them later for the bigger price. Read whitepaper of the project, and you will also understand how to invest into it.

It is very simple:

1. Create MyEthWallet
2. Deposit some funds
3. Do your ICO due diligence
     3.1. Assess WP
     3.2. Check reviews and listings
     3.3. Find out if Idea & Solution are well-established
     3.4. Verify that the website is ok
     3.5. Check Token distribution, promos & discounts
4. ICO Stages (Private sale, pre-sale, crowdsale) - understand in which phase the ICO is currently in and understand the differences
5. KYC
6. Registration and purchase directly via their website
7. HODL or Trade

In my opinion it is easy to invest to ICO, but unfortunately there are too many ICO scams that make us always have to look for information about the ICO.

the first obvious you should provide capital in the form of the ethereum. then you choose the ICO project to your liking. and this will determine the results you get. so be careful in choosing the project of ICO. After that, you read the rules to become investors. and perform the corresponding command in the rules.

Find the ICO project you want to invest in. In general, they have ICO in the official website. They will have specific steps. Follow the steps to send ETH.

Each ICO their terms of Deposit. But almost all investments accept popular cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH)... etc.you can buy them on crypto exchanges.

Investing in any ICO is easy but what is the most difficult is to know if that project may grow or scam. In investing in ICO you must be careful you had to research every detail of it. the team, the roadmap, what does it do and others.

There is no trick in investing in ICO. The number 1 rule is to invest on the early stages of the ICO however, you have to be very careful in choosing which ICO to invest as their are lots of shady projects out there. You have to do some research first like checking the team members if they are legit, etc. You have to be very careful these days.

I think it is not hard for you to invest in ICOs. There are many ICO projects that need to attract investment. You can choose from good ICO projects and trust them to invest. Proper investment is very beneficial to you.

Do you want to invest in ICO Cryptocurrency? if a Cryptocurreny-based ICO project is prioritized you must have the Cryptocurreny digital currency balance received by the ICO for payment, the next step you must be careful about is whether the project has good potential in the future, never invest your funds into an unclear ICO project, but I suggest for beginners, it would be good to do trading activities because it is more promising than investing in ICO projects

It is a very simple to investment in  ICOs. You have to first research the site rating and then to go the read the white paper and the check the roadmap, product.

In the past we have seen many people have lost while investing in ICO so its better to go thoroughly everything.Each day several Ico are being launched many had turned out to be scam so we need to be very much alert.ICO has become a tool that could revolutionize not just currency but the whole financial system. ICO token could become the securities and shares of tomorrow.ERC20 is obviously something which have very high prospects.Choosing a good project is where the main problem lies.And as stated by fellow member do not forget white paper,

https://ico.coincheckup.com/
https://crushcrypto.com/ico-review/

here are some good sites which I occasionally follow- you can get little insight about ICO and may be of some help.

buying an ICO coin isnt difficult which need many steps. but how to know what the good one ICO is very difficult
you have to read whitepaper and understand what project is, then team behind is also considered before investing

There is nothing complicated here, the most difficult thing is to decide and understand that the project is not a project, this is probably the most difficult thing to understand now, because then it will be very late to understand it.

If you are newbie, looking for ICOs to invest is not the best option, since you may not have enough knowledge to make smart descisions about the future of the project and it may be pretty easy to fool you, so learn enough to make investments first.

it's easy, please choose which project you want to support and want to work together, and you can invest there by logging in and registering on the website they provide and follow the next procedure, but be careful when choosing an ICO, because there are so many ICO scam project that will make you experience a lot of losses

Today there are a lot of projects, which are aimed on ICO security are passing through development stage. You just need to wait several months and making a investment will be similar to creating mail account in terms of simplicity.

There are a few factors that you should take into account. First of all research that project yourself, and think if it will be valuable for our society or not in future. Second of all check if it is reviewed or mentioned by famous blockchain periodicals or people. Third find out as much information as possible about the development team. Also you should try to find out if the project is legally registered. At some point a company has to be formed. If you are programming savvy you might as well check the code of the future cryptocurrency that you are interested in. Hope that helps.

Every day it becomes much more serious because now a lot of projects look really bad, I think that this should be analyzed and you should always understand that the risk is and always will be. Therefore, always evaluate and take risks.

Find a propper project, find out everything about their team and possible competitors, try to understand why does this team run ICO, check their Linkedin profiles and only then transfer money for tokens.

First look out for the requirements and payment method because different ICO has different policies and payment methods. If your country is acceptable for participate in ICO then you can proceed to the next step. Now you have to have some bitcoins or ethereum or whatever token they accept as payment method. Finally send tokens to the waller they gave at registration and wait for the ICO ends. Good luck 🤞

I do not recommend anybody to invest ICOs right now, because amount of fake projects is huge and there is not organization that is able to protect your investments.

Firstly you need to find a very good ico and you need to join their telegram channel. after that you need to start doing some research about that ico. their team is really important and you need to track their communitiy also. what they are targeting. they are in that ico for only flipping or they have some believes about the projects future etc etc. and after that you need to read their whitepaper and you need to continue monitoring hype about that ico. after these process you will decide about investing.

Investing is really a good thing and you will not regret doing it. It has been what investors are into this year, but before you start investing in ICO you will need one of the two biggest coins which is Bitcoin and Ethereum, maybe Ethereum cause that’s what developers are going for, since it’s easy for them to setup projects in Ethereum.

Then next thing you have got to do is find the website  of the ICO you’re interested in and register. Beware of any ICO that doesn’t require registration cause they are likely not to be legitimate. I think you should check out cointelegraph, cause there are some ICO related articles there and you will learn a lot from it.

Stay away from ICO's with fake marketing and bot accounts following project on social medias.

Every ICO I guess is only good for bounty hunting.Until and unless we get to see the ico live and the trading goes on we cannot see the bigger picture.So investing is good coins and projects which have been operating since long and having good review and rank is very much safe.Lots of projects have come up and with each passing day more to come.Still crypto is in developing phase,amny counties have put regulations and even some had banned.So going for a future project which we haven't seen will be foolish.Going for low and secured profit is the best way to play the market.

I do not recommend anyone to invest ICO now, because the number of false projects is enormous, and there is no organization that can protect your investment.

If you are a beginner, search ICO for investment - not the best option, as you may not have enough knowledge to make smart decisions about the future of the project, and you can be pretty easy to fool, so make sure you learn enough to make an investment,

You need to understand ico, learn about the ico project, read the white paper!
The current ico market is very depressed. With the collapse of BTC, many ico projects can't complete the fund raising. Before investing in ico, you need to think clearly!

find new ico on platforms like icobench or also on forums like the bitcointalk you like and trust, then look at the website page. then read whitrpaper, roadmap, team if there are irregularities must be careful

easy, just research

ICOs are no longer profitable so don't invest with it anymore.

As an alternative, start investing and focusing to your bitcoin stash. Buy bitcoin while the market hasnt been so good to everyone and you might consider few altcoins but that depends on how good that altcoin you're about to choose.

investing on icos now make zero sense, buying the coin at exchange is much much better because both investors and bounty hunters dump their coins after hitting exchange, if you want to accumulate the coins at lower price lower than preico - ico then buying the coin at exchange will be the best decision, also you dont need to deal with kyc.

its very simple most of the ICO's accept ethereum so you need to have some ethereum and you have to go to there website and purchase from there.

It is simple if you purchase only mate,but mind also how risky if you invest in a ICO's you cannot assure if you will earn with it,because many Scam ICO's now is spreading to scam investors money that's why before investing on it you can afford to lose and accept all the consequences.

Go through different ICO reviewing sites and find suitable one with good rating.Purchase some Ethereum because most of the new project only accepts ETH. Now send those ETH to contract address of that token (be sure to only send ETH to official contract address).Don't send ETH from exchanger wallet, you should send ETH from ETH address created with myetherwallet so that you can view tokens you will receive after sending those ETH to contract address of the project.After you will get tokens, now you have to add custom token in your Myetherwallet dashboard using parameters given by the project.After this you will see your tokens and you can send those tokens/coins to any of the eth address you like. To exchanger's deposit address after some exchange platform will list tokens you have bought.As simple as this.

You can find instructions on telegram or site of project in which you are going to invest. Usually it happens in Ethereum blockchain, project gives you smart-contract address and you send your ETH on it, in response smart-contract sends you tokens to wallet from which you sent ETH, after ICO finishes, they unlock tokens and you can trade them, this is common scenario but they may differ.

Today, there are a number of projects aimed at ensuring the safety of ICO, which are under development. You just need to wait a few months, and the attachment is similar to creating a mail account from the standpoint of simplicity.

Find the best project, find out all about their team and potential competitors, try to understand why this command starts the ICO, check their profiles Linkedin and only then transfers the money into tokens.

You should invest a lot of time by checking if the project is legit. Read the whitepaper, look at the social media communities and research the team members. If everything is okay, feel free to invest in this project.

to invest in ICO is very easy, but it will be easier for you to research through the ICO website that is already popular and trusted. there you will find it easier to find the best projects to the worst.

Conduct a research on the company and the people behind the ICO you like.

Read their white paper carefully.

And lastly check if the benefits of the ICO suit your need. 

You only need read Ann topic carefully, in there all information you need already there. Mostly they will say to contact their support team using telegram channel or via web site, in this part you should check the address before invest. Replace money into ICO project is easy but how to take the right project is very difficult, specially in this down trend. Be careful with your money and good luck to you.
