Bitcoin Forum

All ICO's were either shit or scams this month. No coin was worth the mention at all, almost all coins released this month will be dead in 1 year, or have nothing working.

These forums are becoming flooded by young dumb cunts who think they can make x100 profit in 1 day, by investing in Shitcoin X. The tokens section was the greatest addition to this forum, filtering out the cesspool of shitcoins and scams.

It's truly amazing how all this new money is coming in, and being put towards the worst imaginable crypto projects i've ever witnessed on here.

Open your eyes you money hungry faggots, and start demanding more. Why should you invest millions into a projects that have absolutely no backbone? Why the fuck are you giving your ID away to airdropped coins. The amount of stupidity here is fucking mind boggling.

...and December 2017 was better? I don't get your post - only skepticism and negative energy. Did you even buy and ICO in the past that was successful?

I think that the next months will not be better. The popularity of ICO projects is growing, as is the number of people wishing to make quick money. The outlook is pessimistic, but realistic and we should learn to separate scam projects

why wuould u think that??

Yeah, I also think this month was lacking some big name projects so far. Exceptions are Sether, which got a lot of attention, WePower is coming at the beginning of February and Beetoken sounds interesting.

Are you sure about that because some projects have really been promising and have had many investors investing in them.Probably you mean to say by extension that most ICos run till date are scams or not worth their money which to me wont be a good conclusion to draw.

Are you sure about that ? Cause ive seen prey much ICO turn out to be good project this year, even this year just 22 days apart from last year. I mean yeah there shit ico and turn out to be scam, but there some good project too. Like bluzelle and aion, this would be long post if i try to explain what those to coins do. Just visit their website and read it there.

Yeah, but there are few quite good ICO for Feb:

- IQeon (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2479328)

- Datarius (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2479365)

and few more. IQeon and Datarius already collected in the pre-ico phase 2M and 0.5M so they will be 100% successful.

I agree there weren't too many good ICOs in January. Just a small number of them did great.

For example the AURORA ico did really good with the 2 token format (IDXM + AURA)

Was always going to happen with Ian Ballina jumping on the today show talking about how much coin he's made off ICO's

and then add the dumb bogan aussie factor in and the lure to leave their shithole housing commission estate you're going to get a heap of dead shits investing in whatever pops up on google first...

i want to laugh but then i remember my tax dollars goes to those losers centrelink payments and then i get mad

yes it was a terrible month,  bread ico is slip through my finger's. and i lost lots of eth on exchange...

I agree with you that theres a lot of shitcoin coming in everyday, but 100% of crypto shitcoin this month? Oh come'on, you are generalizing brother. Telcoin was neven been a shit coin, inlcuding PIN COIN. You should at least look at some beautiful start-up that will change and shape the future of crypto mechanism - not just always looking at the  majority shit side.

I agreed that this month came out a lot of shit ico, but not all. And met the callback, a lot of new ico dropped a lot, I think this is a good thing, you can now see which coin is a good and which not.

Well, that's not true, I can single out Peculium(which I'm invested in) and SelfKey(which sold in seconds, so I couldn't invest) as very good projects.

The fact  that some of these ico’s sold out in minutes proves that ico’s are here to stay and will be around for years to come.

It's just that more people are in it just for the money and doesn't do their own due diligence. They have to learn about this space or else they will be the food of the wolves. Scammers always find the most famous ways they can earn or scam people off of their hard earned money so I'm not surprised at all.

many ICOs by 2018 succeed and reach Hardcap, this may be a good start.
some people choose to invest in ICO, because BTC and other altcoins are decreasing.

Yes, I don't understand why so many new people are entering the cryptocurrency market with a rich mentality.
By airdrop? By the ICO? Dream on.
If they don't know anything about cryptocurrency, they're trying to get rich.

ico today a lot. Most of them are scams.

even the icos at the top of coinmarketcap mostly have nothing to offer...

wait til they go full exit plan bitconnect

only good thing as they (the ico runners, insider whales) spend all that btc they robbed from these poor souls will flood the market so the btc sale could be extended for a while

find the REAL projects which have locked in value already.... well nothing is locked in in crypto but they have produced work that is useful and functional with a reasonable use case

safest bet if you have no clue on what to invest in from here could be just to hold on to BTC

better returns can come from finding real projects but there are only a handful on this entire board.

If you must make money from icos do you research and only invest what you can afford if they do not have a working functioning product with a real use case and proven devs.

Or go very small and treat them as a total gamble. Certainly dont push in your actual savings that you need.

It's not just about 'getting rich'!
For example, I just love to invest in good projects. Some like EPY, VIBE and many more are making me money, other like ZDR and GGS are complete failure. But it's fun all the way down :)

I agree that there are currently no very few good ICO projects where investments could be invested, but even be included in the subscription campaign. I somehow recently looked through the projects and really, did not find something to even be interested. We hope that not all the good projects have been realized so far and that bright heads will still conduct such good projects. Maybe next month we will all be more lucky.

Some months are better than others. It's always smart to check ICO reviews & ratings before investing.

Is a good start. It shows popular ICOs, market trends, coin analysis.

Good luck!

Is it just me who thinks more and more good ICOs are coming up lately?
Even some airdrop token are better than some ICO

Credits.com token sale is scheduled for Feb. What do you think? They claim unmatched speeds, but so far the only MVP is existing.

Lately, there are really a lot of projects that are created just to raise money, and then the developers just do not do anything, that is, they simply deceive people, but on the ETH platform there are not so many such projects as for example on the Waves platform. It really bothers you.

I believe there are still honest and transparent ico like Fuzex, now it is an obligation to give identity to a project in order to avoid fraud

What about Dadi and Daneel? Could you give me some advice

I dont agree with this at all because some of them are legit and have working product.
Not only this month but also months before, there are many ico appear and its very complicated but its not guarantee that all of them are scam.

The problem is, with so many scam ICO's, those legit and trusted ones are being affected, negatively. As much as people want's to invest on them, they became skeptics because of those recent scams pulling pulled by ICO's. That's why its became so complicated because you don't know who to trust to at this point.

But I'm not sure if they're going to die in the next year or so, we still have those pump-and-dump group reviving shitcoins to their advantage, unless exchanges de-listed them, they will still continue to exist in the market.

You are wrong dude. I was found couple of good ICO in this month. For example look closer to WePower, very interesting idea and good raising.

Yeah i agree this month is a little bland in term of ico excitement, there's no great project that is unique. It's normal for people want to get x100 for their coin, they are new to investing and don't have the basic of economy. I like it if they invest in scam project / overvalued project and lose money because that will be a good learning experience for them.

I have seen a bunch of ICOs nowadays saying they "guarantee" profits and even have profit calculators on the ICO websites.

Just follow the simple rule: It it's too good to be true, it's not true

It seems to me that in the coming months nothing will change. The popularity of ICO projects is growing and the number of people wishing to make quick money too. Our main task in this matter is to learn how to identify scammers.

I do think there are a few very good projects while the rest are definitely scammy.
We need to filter and apply criteria to assess whether these projects are really useful, developed by solid team with credible background and also properly registered or incorporated.

How about Pundix?
They had succesfull ICO yesterday after good pre-sale.

Hello guys , I have made an investment in an pre-ico of 1500 € . The concept sounds very nice , they have launched  a youtube channel with some funny presentation clips . But I'm not sure if i made the best decision . The website looks simple and trustable . I would like some feedback of this website , please !

Now in the market a lot of fraudsters so you need to carefully select the projects in which to invest money, because you can spend and you will lose your money

This isn't new in my opinion, there have been many scammy or unreliable ICOs ever since money started to come in for the first time (around October 2017), and people saw that ICOs are easy money if you can make people believe in your product. We have to be more careful out there, but that doesn't mean that there aren't any ICOs that aren't worthy to invest in.

I have a feeling that December and January would traditionally be poor months for ICOs but there were still some very successful ICOs within this time period. I think most companies will aim not to be finishing their ICOs in these months and thus it can be attributed to that that we may not of had the best selection to choose from.
