Bitcoin Forum

I would like to ask for your advice, I have $3000 USD. and I am confused, what should I do with my money?I have an idea, I will participate with ico, and I will invest each $200 USD in each of the ICO.What do you think? is it a wise choice? or better I invested all my money for one ICO? I would like to know your opinion on this subject

Stay away from ICOs with hype. Whenever everyone is investing big in a project and expect high returns, It doesn't happen. Find a project that you're interested in and you really want to be part of because of you don't, you will find yourself affected by the FUD and selling at a loss whenever the price drops a little.

If you are allocation 200 USD for each ICO, then you should do a lot of research on which ICO to invest. you will have to study which exchange is selling the coin/token at the lowest price so you can get as much as token/coin for 200 USD.  because 200 USD in one ICO is kinda very low

Bitcoin -$1000, Dow Jones -700 points, Gold and Silver +2%. Look at world markets ......

Diversify your investments, that is the first rule.
Half of this sum I would invest in Bitcoin.and the other half I would split between Ethereum and gold. Avoid ICOs, you never know what are you going to get and lately there are also many scams there.
Whatever you decide don't put all eggs in just one basket.

I think the plan that you have decided is the best. Diversifying your investments is the safest way to make money. Ensure that you have studied the ICOs you are going to invest in thoroughly because at the end of the day, you are the best judge and your call will be final.
Invest in the project that looks the most interesting. Even though the market is in a big dip right now, but it will definitely pick up its pace in the next few months and you will see prices of every coin scaling up again.

Bitcoin +$5913 (~+600%), Dow Jones +2783 points (~+12%), Gold +5%

Look at world markets.

And maybe look at a bigger timeframe? I have chosen 1 year.

Picking random numbers from random timeframes is a not very established way of recommending an investment.

@OP:
You need to decide for yourself wether you want to rather invest in only 1 project you trust the most, or spread across several.
But keep in mind that you have to stay up-to-date regarding each of your investments.
The possible return and risk has to be weight up.

Choose the ICO very wisely and after a lot of research because a lot of current ICO's become scam after taking away user's money.
You may get some portion of Bitcoin because currently it is at lower price and who knows the price may skyrocket again !

This is the best advice I can give you since I joined the cryptocurrency trading and ICO specifically for the past years. Research on a good ICO that has a great potential to deliver it promise based on the team, the whitpaper and the product or service. After you found an ICO that interest you. DONT send your ether or money to buy tokens. Wait till the ICO is over, bounty participant who are in dare needs of money and impatient will sell their tokens off at a cheaper rate than the ICO. Since they didn't purchase it, they take any price offer them. Within a month or two after purchasing them, you wait for the project to enlist on exchange or see part of the development stage manifesting, then sell for a higher that you bought. rinse and repeat.

I'm not going to invest in ico. In the past two months, I have invested in three ico, but the results have disappointed me. They traded on the exchange in March, and I lost two-thirds of my money. I'm not going to invest in any ico anymore and I think it's better to buy bitcoins.

All ICOs can't reach there target.if you want to invest on ICO then first you learn and find a good ICO company for invest your money.But At this moment find a better ICOs is very difficult.SoI think it's hard for you.I have a small advice.Invest your half money on bitcoin and half Ethereum or some good Altcoin.

Silver up +35% in 2017.

I'd wait for a bull market to do an ICO. Doing it right now can be outright dangerous.

If I were to put any money in today it would be in the big cap coins. ETH, BTC, LTC,...

staying away from crypto for few months

Definitely the ones that are already at the top charts, and hodl as much as you can, if you're playing short-term you're guaranteed to lose. Don't ever put everything you have into crypto, only invest what you can afford to lose, that's the truth. If you win - you'll be glad you invested, if, unfortunately, you will lose - you wont be upset as much as when it was everything you had.
Investing in ICO is a good idea, you could fill your pocket with lots of money if you are in the right coin to be in. Just be cautious and don't let your guard down, research first before investing. A thousand dollars is a good start, try first at low amount then if you feel you could endure the heat, try greater amounts. Good luck.

I think the wise decision is to invest in different ICO's.Don't spend your all investment in one ICO, it's a bit risky.

we need to keep it first and I think the plan that you have decided is the best,...diversifying your investments is the safest way to make money. Ensure that you have studied the ICOs you are going to invest in thoroughly because at the end of the day, you are the best judge and your call will be final...Invest in the project that looks the most interesting. Even though the market is in a big dip right now, but it will definitely pick up its pace in the next few months and you will see prices of every coin scaling up again...

My best advice for you is, do not listen to andybody in which coin or token you should invest. Make your own researches, and just invest in project you really believe. Dont take advice for investments from anyone else. The only advices you should take is the advices for trading and investing rules, like do not sell with loss and hold your coins. I made the experience that the most advice from other people are junk, because real good investors do not give advices!

its better if you split your investment in different program the higher you trust the project
the higher you invest its better if your lower is $50 or $100 and for highly trusted project maybe $200
do not go all in because if you failed you will lose your money just always keep in mind that in every investment there always a risk

meh
do not invest all your money just in one place
if you are investor, you need to think the more oppurtunity you get the more you will gain profit
if you just stuck in one project investment if your investment are success and earn high profit, yes you can rich but if you fail you just wasting you time
try to more spreading your investment and don't forget to see the company project or goal

Wouldn't it be nice to see the historical accuracy of all of the folks posting their advice here in this thread?

You can invest on ICO 20% of your money. It will be good.
And be careful from scam ICO. Now some ICO getting failed and huge loss of many investors. So, look before you leaf.
Some money stay for backup, if anyway get a loss, then you can try to recover from your backup money.
Some altcoins can buy now which has low amount. Such as Litecoin, Ethereum classic etc.

I mean why invest it all in ICOs, why not diversify, if you limit yourself to just ICO investing you may not be able to get that much profit and you might be wasting your money, tokens could take months to get listed on exchange and they might even turn out not as you expect them, i am not saying that you shouldn't invest in them, some of them really have some great projects and creative idea, but don't invest all your money into them, my suggestion is to split your cap, invest half of it on bitcoin, because that's obviously the right choice for anyone who is trying to make profit and especially right now since its price is down, and use the other half on etehreum and ICOs.

Well I think investing smaller amounts in different ICOs might reduce the risks but it would reduce the amount of profit you can gain as well. Currently, I think it would be wiser if you invest in bitcoin or a good altcoin rather than investing in an ICO  as they might have a hard time gaining popularity after the ad-bans on various social medias.

You better choice a good ICO to invest your money, you may search for it. In one ICO  or just 2  ICO are enough for you to half your money for that ICOs that you are joining. The more capital, the more profits you Will gain . One more thing, buy Bitcoin at the lower price and  you have to monitor it until when the price Will increase. It is good  to invest , if you have a lot of money for it  to buy because you can double your money, when you are in good timing.

If you do not know the right ico for investment then dont join ico if you do not know the insight about the project ,it's easier if you want to invest and make a profit you invest in coin that is so like bitcoin or ethereum My advice

You're in a bitcoin forum, so why would you want to invest in an ICOs? Even if you have $3k ico and invest $200 for each ICO then that would means you will be holding 15 kind of different coins which any of them could be something but mostly scams. If you want to play safe then invest in BTC, its already cut more than half from the highest peak but if you really want to invest in the ico then dont invest more than $500 and you could still have $2,500 for a safer investment to cover that risky investment.

Investing on ICO is a good idea. However, You must know what ICO is better and will serve its purpose and product to its customers. There are so many ICO scams right now so reviewing the ICO you wanted to invest is a must.

If i were you i split my capital into two category. One for investing on ICO and the other one is for Buying good crypto for long Hold.

Invest your money, in that way your money work for you, in a matter of time your investment might doubled, but before you invest, you have to study first the company or project you want to invest, checked there background.

My advice would be that you avoid ICOs at the moment. Unless you are absolutely sure you can live without those 3000 in the future. I don't like loosing money and ICOs are 80% money loss. Those that do happen to be a successful company can bring you a lot of money, however i prefer safer investment such as bitcoin.
I would invest 2000$ long term in bitcoin and trade 1000$ in altcoins or bitcoin. Trading is optional of course and it depends on your skills and time.
Currently bitcoin in so undervalued that you really can't mess it up if you invest all in bitcoin. In my honest opinion it is the safest investment with great gains compared to stock market.

I agree with your opinion to split your investments to several ICOs because it is wiser than bet everything just on 1 ICO. This true for all investments.

you should not invest in ico at this time. Currently all problems have been solved by before icos. The ico continues to be a junk for long term investment. In the short term, price increase as soon as the exchanges is impossible when bitcoin deep discounts. Invest in knowledge to trade the best in the moment. you can to buy coin top which have good platform to hold when it comes to the bottom price.

You should not choose too many ICOs to invest .. because it does not bring much profit. It takes a lot of time to track many projects. You should choose an ICO that is likely to grow in the future and invest in it. If that project succeeds, you will receive great profits in the future.

I would invest 2/3 in established coins like Neo, ETH, something in the top 50 which is in a dip. and 1/3 in some good ico's or recently listed icos which are near the ico price. Switcheo, Apex, 0x(coming). Icos at the moment will list, then dump at 2x or 3x straight away so you can buy (a good) ico, get 2x then buy back in on the dip.

investing in ICO does make us interested in. let alone offer a huge bonus, but if you want to invest in an ico you should learn first because now a lot of ICO SCAM ,, my advice if you have $ 3000 you should invest in ETH

I would not recommend you ICO as there're not many reputed ones here, instead I would suggest you two proposals whichever you like follow it.

Put your 3k in bitcoins you can buy it at various times so that over a period of time price becomes average.

Second and this you'll like more why not buy tokens of Bitdice, once you buy this tokens you'll receive dividends this shall gradually increase your income. You can contact Boxxob he'll guide you more. This is one of the best way to make money.

Yes, also i advice investors especially the new comers to stay positive and do not panic with all thr stirring and dropping previously in the market value of bitcoin because it can and will survive in fact the price is starting to show growth now. With all the negative outburst against it, it has manage to gain value and stay strong in the market. This is a good sign that bitcoin can really be trusted and that we can really earn through this.

Whenever everyone is investing big one project and expect high returns, It doesn't happen...Find a project that you're interested in and you really want to be part of because of you don't, you will find yourself affected by the FUD and selling at a loss whenever the price drops a little....

Since we are in the bear market and all the prices are dropping I would suggest staying away from the ICOs. In most of them, you won't even get your investment money back... On top of that, there are a lot of scam ICOs. If you have time, I would invest into some of the top coins directly and leave it for at least a year or more.

Personally, i say stay away from ICO's rn, even the good ones arent seeing huge gains!

If you are unexperienced, BTC, ETH & LTC should be fine, all 2 have tanked so should be safe!

Seeing the current market my best advise to you would be stay away from ICOs right now. I am interested in ICOs too since it is a great way to earn huge money in a short time but seeing the current market situations with the falling of BTC price and most of the ICOs turning scams, I am myself staying away from them and will advise you the same. It would be better that you invest in potential coins like BTC, ETH, EOS, ADA etc...  as these coins are very cheap right now and are more prone to give profit in the upcoming months.

Investing your money is a great idea, and thinking of investing it in different icos is greater. But before you invest to any ico, take time to study their projects. Dont hesitate to read and reread everything. And also dont expect much because maybe you wont like the outcomes.

I would divide this account(3000$) in half and buy bitcoin and ethereum in equal parts. This is the most stable investment,as for me.

My advice is to invest your money in two ICOs. One is for the ICO that I've joined which is Docademic and the other depends on you. This is simply because 200 dollars will get you nothing and you must embrace the risk when investing. The larger the investment, the bigger profit you will claim. I would also like to advice you to research about the ICO first, before laying an investment in it.

It has nothing to do with popularity, every year bitcoin prices are always like this, the price always drops unnaturally.

I think invest is good idea. Because we know now bitcoin price is low. If you now sell your bitcoin then you get low profit. So i think now you can invest your bitcoin for long time then maybe you get good profit.

I think it is very good at investing in ico, i am sure ico investment is very profitable, i am a beginner but have many examples of successful people investing in ico

Where you will invest, it's all about you. My advice for your, I think that investing in Hype sites will be more profitable. But this is Risky.If you work on merit and researches with it, then I think there will be no loss.

if you want to invest in ICO do so with the one that has working product because they are less risky but for me if i have such money and i intend to use it for crypto, I will consider trading for long time investment $3000 is huge sum of money. you can invest in some altcoin like ETH which is currently recovering and keep it save in your wallet and expect 2x return before the end of this year. I think that is far better than investing in some other highly risky things.

If you have $3000 USD you invest it in bitcoin. Because in 3 days we seen that bitcoin prize become rise. I think in 2018 it break up its old record. So I advice you to invest in bitcoin.

My recommendation is to put your cash in two ICOs. One is for the ICO that I've joined which is Docademic and alternate relies upon you. This is essentially on the grounds that 200 dollars will make them nothing and you should grasp the hazard when contributing. The bigger the speculation, the greater benefit you will assert. I might likewise want to exhortation you to examine about the ICO to start with, before laying an interest in it.

i think now you shouldn't buy many ico,you should buy 1-2 ico and buy eth or btc,it is good choice for you,ico now is very risky

I suggest you not to for ICO as it can be quite risky. Better start with bitcoins and learn all tricks for trading crypto first and then move to ICO.

investing in multiple ICOs is not going to give you less risk since it is not diversifying anything, you are just getting involved with the same thing under a different disguise! the other ICOs may even be run by the same group of people that are scamming you under different names. and that is the risk of ICOs they are unknown and useless and the tokens never do anything so they don't have any long term potential at all.

Your idea is stupid, you split the money for all the ico projects, and you think all the ICO projects are real and all can succeed. Take a look at the actual number of false projects and failures have a lot. You should find out about the project you want to head, and this will reduce your risk of failure.

I think it would be best to invest on the existing coins either be BTC or altcoins since these coins had already been in the industry for quite sometime and it had shown it's performance as well. With this, I do believe that the chance of gaining good profit is much feasible than investing in ICO since it will have to make an effort and performance in the cryptomarket to prove that it is worth investing.

This is the great advice with my opinion I give you.you have good money I see.you can learned crypto currency sections then you can do this trading or long term investment.its depends with your mind,you can choice anyone.i hope you will got your success like that.

the best thing to do now is to buy coins because I'm certain that you'll earn a lot when you invest in coins.

What I would advice you mainly is to look for projects already in coin market cap and invest in them. You can split your funds into three places, use one to into bitcoin, use one to invest in etherum and use the rest to invest in solid projects on coin market cap like zilliqa, Quamstamp, etc

I think your strategy is good you dived your profit in to many ICO. That case you wont get hurt if the ico fail or scam. Because you didnt put all your profit on it. But be wise on picking ico

It is a good choice if you are able to diversify your investment, never put everything into one project, i have done that mistake in the past and i paid dearly as i am still keeping that coin for a long time, if you find a good project that you think have the potential to give you immense profit then you can invest seventy percent in it, other than other diversify your investment in good projects .

You should invest $ 200 USD each in the ICO. And find out every ico you want to invest in. If you do not want to scam

I Strongly Agree With Your Solution, Your Solution Is Exactly And Extremely Good.

you can invest in bitcoin and altcoin even for ico. I think $ 3000 USD capital is quite large.
well, the problem is currently the market is not conducive. if you can be more patient and have no effect on this decline. I suggest you can buy bitcoin and altcoin. simply by studying then compare with some other altcoin.

The question only concerns ICO ? The fact is that in the presence of $ 3000, i would not have invested in ICO at all.
That's why:
- very likely that the project will not be made,
- if it is done, the money will freeze for a long time,
- and most importantly, after entering the stock exchanges, almost all coins are falling in price and they can be bought much more profitable than at ICO.

It's good when we've been through this blood lesson, it costs us so much money for a lesson but i think it's totally worth, it will make sure that we won't make that mistake again in the future.
Stand strong after this lesson is the key of success of every famous traders, others usually quit after it happens but if you can pass this , you will have nothing to fear about this market anymore because everything were in your predictions.

The risk if you join with ICO project is the project that you invested is ICO project failed and there is no investor who join with ICO project, or the ICO project that you join is scam you will lose all money. Many have to consider before you join the ICO project, and to do reasearch on the project is very difficult.

But if you choose investing with the coin who already in market the risk investing is a little, just the price down who will make you lose. And now the price coin is fall, bitcoin just $6800 eth just $380 and the other. You can choose eth bevause the price is very cheap and good time to buy. So, I suggest to you for thinnk about coin that already in market  and use a chance for this situation when the price have downtrend.

Here I'm Not suggesting any Investing Guide But Here I can share my Opinion What will I do If I have 3000 US dollars. First of all, I research about top ten Cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ripple, Ethereum, Litecoin and any others, then I Will invest My 100 dollars each currency in Top top ten and 100 Dollars in Any other new currency after long research that's it Now Up to You.

What are these ICO's that you are desiring to invest? $200 is a good amount and acceptable to lose. But not all ICO's are profitable just to let you know.
It's not a wise choice for me, if I were you go all in to bitcoin while it's on correction.

Probably one of the most good advice - never put everything that you have into cryptography, invest only what you can afford to lose. Even careful selection and careful study of ICO does not guarantee a big profit. A bet on the coins that are at the top of the list can bring profit if the period is calculated correctly - long-term or for a short period of time. Diversifying your investment is also a very important rule.

Look at the market and buy when the prices are in the red, never panic sell any of your coins and never buy into the market at the height of a bull run, it's not a smart move.

Make sure you understand what you are going to do or what you are dealing with, don’t take any reckless action. First, study every ICOs you are interested in, find one suitable for you and then allocate it according to your calculations. I think it's better to focus on 1 ICO than to put your money in many places, because your mind and focus could be disturbed or even mixed between one ICO with another.

It is not always possible to invest in ICO for $ 200, since most require a minimum of 1 etherium. And it's better to invest even more for the profit.

You have very good amount for investmentment.you should stay away from ICO and should invest in crypto and split your investment as below.

1. 60% into BTC mean your reward is confirmed.
2. 25% into ETH and hold it for some time return would be very high for upcoming years.
3. 15% into NEO,EOS,MIOTA,XPR,ADA.except XPR rest Altcoins are undervalue and investment in these coins and holding is preferable whereas XPR is best for day to day trading.

All of the above mentioned coins are best and good reward depends upon your investment strategies.

If I were you, I will do the same thing. I would not just invest in one ICO. But, be sure to be wise in choosing one. Participating in ICOs is a great risk.

No matter how much investment you are in, as long as you are persistent and stay focused and up-to-date on every investment you pledge in it. And keep in mind that in the world of investment there are so many scams, as you know many of ICOs turned out to be scam and also choose an ICO that have a good future prospect because many of ICOs became failures because the funds collected don’t meet the target or the project stuck in the middle of the road.

I do not think investing in ICOs at the present time is good. But with that little money, you will not be able to invest in ICOs because sellers will not want to sell tokens for you. I think you should trade altcoin instead of investing in ICO.
With 3k $ you can make a big profit from smart investments. I started out with $ 5k and now I have $ 18.5k.

For me its better to hold solid coins rather than risking on investing ICOs, you can see many New ICOs after they listed in exchanges are prices below ICO price which is a very bad.. That is why i prefer investing on top coins and you gain surely as soon the market recovers

Well, in a way you can see it as:
invest in more established coins = less gain
invest in rather new coins = more gain
invest in icos = most gain

of course this is not always the case, but investing in bitcoin vs for example investing in ethereum(at the $0.3 price ico), it's a much better gain.
finding good coins early is also good.

but both are more risky.

for me you should think it. because if you think that ico make your money profitable or the project will success, invest higher but you need to keep some money so that even the project or ico that you've invest are failed you have some money that can you use or make it capital to start earning again...

I’d rather choose tradable coins on market. So you can buy and sell them whenever you want. Find some good projects; analyze data about them (social media activity, community support, team, road map, plans for future, released updates and more other signals). Only this way you can be sure that you won’t lost your money and can get profit.
   

By this action you are trying to reduce risks but at the same time you know that you will get less than in second case,So my advice is to find one or two project or even coin and set your goals,It takes less time to understand if X project is successful or not,In another situation you need a lot of time,In additional you have no guarantees,usually I am not watching ICOs recently but I know that there are too many scams and developers are trying to get rich by this,So I would choose coin,If you are interesting in it,Today I'm watching zerocoin-which is very fast,without transaction fees(coin price is 0.902936 and fee-0.0001 Zerocoin,which is very funny(zk-SNARK technology)).Also I would offer you IOS token which is looking good for long-term investment,at the same time very useful for business purposes.

You sure you still want to participate in ico with all the scam ico recently? Well if you wanna take risk then go but be very cautious so you'll not end up living in street. Or if you wanna play safe just use your money to buy top altcoins and just hold it. People nowadays always take advantage to someone they knew that they can fool so better think ahead of them. Be wise enough.

I suggest that you put some of your money on bitcoin and other blue chips to have a better folio on the near future then decide on the ICO's you want to invest but be reminded that you have to do your own research all the ICO's you wanted to invest to.

Have you seen how the price is right now? Sometimes the price falls but it will recover afterwards.
Ah it’s an irony to see you say like that but you join ICO campaign at this time.

I would advise you to find an experienced team that deals with the analysis of ICO and invests in serious projects. Such projects usually have a very high entry level and one investor does not pull this amount. To do this, they collect a pool from a group of investors and distribute tokens after the ICO is completed. You can divide your own into several parts at your discretion.

I know a lot of people were scammed in different ICO's, much better if you do research and user reviews before investing it there. You can buy ETH or BTC if you really want to invest and hold your coin until its highest value. Buy at dips and sell it if, at your desired coin value, I think its less risk buying coins than investing in ICO's

if i were in your place i would invest it 2 or 3 ICO's. i'm gonna choose best ICO that i think would success after their sale. just choose a project carefully.

All in Neo, don't split your investment to hold many coins. Neo is building platform for crypto currency to grow and the price now still cheap, so put all yours investment here is safe.

If you firmly decided to invest in ICO, it is better not to put all the money in one company, choose at least ten different companies.

I advise you all for the investment and only in the coin BNT and the Chimaera ICO. Also, can be profitable if you invest in TFL one of the gaming based coin that is now in it's lower point. So, invest as much as you can but I suggest you not more than $5000. Because almost regularly new companies are coming with their ICO and among them, some may be the good project. So, keep some funds aside for these upcoming ICOs.

Usually people would think that evenly dividing capital for many projects would be safe but they forgot that the risk involved was too high. If you divide that amount into 10 different projects and only two projects are in profit, then the probability of losses is very high. I recommend that you carefully consider and study the project before investing and focus on investing in the best 2-3 projects

Your idea us good, but you need to do a lot of research first, by the way, I prefer invest in top 15 coin on crypto market because ICO investment is too risk and there are too much scam project right now

If you have a little knowledge in ICO I suggest you study it first and learn the use of it and then put only small amount of your money, don't invest all.

I think ico hype is already finished and you can start investing in really strong projects that are created for people. Good luck my friend!

I don’t recommend investing on ICO lots of successful ico’s raised more than 30 million failed to deliver promises and still trading way lesser than ico price . Overall out of lots of successful ico’s in this year some are became successful for bitcoin nvestors that is not even 1% . So be sure about project your going to invest . If it is for long term you really believing project then only invest . Otherwise there is lots of coins in big exchanges still trading way under its ico price you can pick that .

investing in multiple ICOs isnt going to give u less risk since it`s not diversifying anything, u r just getting involved with the same thing under a different disguise! the other ICOs may even be run by the same group of people that r scamming u under different names and thats the risk of ICOs they r unknown and useless and the tokens never do anything so they don't have any long term potential at all.

If you have $3000 then you're planning to invest $200 on each ICO, if that happens you have to join 15 ICOs that's to many to track bro if i were you i'd pick top 5 from choice and invest it. So that i have more investment to a good ICO. It will earn more profit than investing to too many ICO out there.

If you do not have a wealth of experience, I do not recommend that you invest in ICO. Maybe you can consider investing this money in some popular coins. For example BTC ETH EOS ect.

There you go, you are risking all your money up there with the ICO programs.

If I were you then I am sure my first shot wouldn't be putting my money into sharks mouth! I will go for the coins which are already listed in the exchanges and having some sort of volume in the project itself. This will tell me that the project is legit one and there are some sort of developments going on. If thats not the case then I will hold the most rigid coins that is ETH and BTC. Thats the best way to go around it mate.

Of course, it's better to invest in several different ICO ones than in one, this principle works here as in coins. Thus, you reduce the risk in the event of the failure of one or more of them and keep your nerves.

Everyone has their own thoughts, some dare to play safe and some are willing to play with risk.
play a very profitable risk.

You should diversify your investment to reduce the risk but investing in a lot of ico isn't the right things to do. You still have to do some research about the project before putting your money there. You can just invest in 3 to 4 icos which you have done research. If you find 2 or 3 great project then why you split the money into a lot of average ico.

ICO have become risky nowadays. I would say diversify your investment amount in 4-5 ICO. That would help in hedging. In crypto, risk and capital management is everything.  You need to take care about both of these points while investing. Also, never invest in an ICO in first week no matter how lucrative is the bonus. Wait to check the initial growth and how much they are able to raise in a week. Then invest after proper analysis.

In my suggestion you should distribute your money in multiple projects instead to go with particular one and also don't go with the every ICO Investment because not every ICOs are profitable or guinine , choose the perfect and better rating ICOs to get better return of your Investment .
And also here I would like to suggest you to invest in altcoins also because only Investment in ICOs are not perfect way to make profit but also you can make much profit in better better altcoins .
For exmaple you can put your money in Altcoins like FDZ , bEE , GEMS  these will give 10 times more profit in the last of the year 2018.

I will tel you what I feel, it might be correct or wrong. There is no rule that say you should invest all your money without keeping any with you. So my advise is not to invest each ICO with a fraction but, invest on few selected ICOs which has a potential.

Or investing in ETH is more appropriate, even if there is volatility, it will soon rise again. If you invest in ICO, you can take a small part to plan it.

Advice in the world of cryptographic currencies is very important. it helps you and shows direction. My advice is to do good research before investing. ico should always be evaluated

Well remember that some ICO are not legit anymore they tend to scam , so better to choose wisely so instead of wasting time to some ico that are scam , be wiser and be aware conduct a search or review to what ICO you wish to participated in , and diversify your budget have a plan a to z i guess.

Dispersed funds = Dispersed risk
I think you made the right decision.
If you choose to put all your money into ico,
 Focus on funds = Concentration risk
I would like to remind you that many projects have recently experienced problems. ico is not the best choice for making money. Finding a good ico is already a very difficult thing. I suggest you buy half of your funds in Bitcoin or Ethereum. Save them. Waiting for the rise.

I think it's a good choice, and you can't tell which ICO project is worth investing in, or at least you can share most of the risk. As long as one ICO is successful, you won't lose money.

Do not do this if you invest in all the ICO you will be in the red, find one but very worthy and put in all the money, good luck!

keep the 40 % of your investment in btc, for balance you need to study on the alts on yourself.
i would prefer to not go on ico,s still you want you can select 2 projects on the basis of your study and research.
for the alts: i would suggest to select the coin that are near to all time low.....

I absolutely agree with the previous opinion. Investing in one project is not wise, even dangerous. Suddenly the project will not justify itself, and the coin will not give the desired profit. It is better to distribute coins between the top coins, they have a huge potential for further growth, despite their high capitalization

It is better to participate in 2-3 ICO, but carefully choose them, than simply to invest $ 200 in many ICO.  Even if you are 100% sure of the project, the risk of losing is still very high.  If this is all your money, then it's better to invest some in coins on the exchange, and a part in ICO

Do not go with any ICO if you are new to this sphere. you may lose all you have. To begin with, get some coins for long-term hold. Then read more about short-term investing. And then try it.

it is not a good idea to invest all your money in one ico because you can choose many ico in out there but you need to know the details of every project so you can make a profit in the long-term. but for me, I think I will use that money to buy the coin in the market because I am not sure that I can make a lot of money from the ico. my advice is you need to split your money to three parts and you have $1000 to buy coins, $1000 to buy ico if you really to invest in ico, $1000 for your back up money if the coins you bought gets down so you can buy another amount of the coins.

Invest in multiple coins for projects you believe in.  Never dump all of your money into one coin as at that point it basically becomes gambling.  Keep a decent amount in bitcoin or eth, or another stable coin and pick a few altcoins that are popular and are projects you have faith in.  Also, leave your emotions out of it all, it's super easy to lose everything if you panic when there's a market correction. 

I would highly recommend that you separate youe investments with your money, HODLing  in on some crypto with good potential  is good specially if you do not panic sell. You can also invest in ICOs but be wary since most ICOs is either a scam or the price market of the altcoin is not good that is why you shoulddo a brief research in an ICO before you invest.

it is good idea to split your portfolio, that is for sure. But choose a project after very thorough research on team and the idea, then be patient if the price drops or doesn't grow, hold for a 2 years and see what happens.

I think investing for just one ico is not effective.
you have to divide it into several different ico.
so as not to get stuck in just one ico

What ever you do, but don't invest all your investment in one bucket. Diversify your amount in different markets / coins to minimize the risk. Do not involve in trading, it is purely gambling. Think twice before you investing.

Best advise is " If you believe in crypto continue to learn. Don't stop your education. If you want to trade don't be fear and starting in a little funds . If you'll success it would be great and after that you'll have more motivation to learn about crypto more and more" Anyway crypto has a good future nand now it's just the beginning. Try to think how you can use crypto on your work and on real life.

My recommendation is to place your profit 2 ICOs. One is for the ICO that I've joined that is Docademic and alternate depends upon you. this can be primarily on the grounds that two hundred bucks can create them nothing and you ought to grasp the hazard once conducive. the larger the speculation, the larger profit you may assert. i'd likewise wish to exhortation you to look at concerning the ICO to begin with, before birth Associate in Nursing interest in it.

besides that, you need to think about how much money you will use to invest in one or two project/coins and don't panic when everything is not running well. spreading our investment in many places is also a good option but you still need to learn about the investment so you don't have to make a mistake which many people did. always check everything to make sure that you have to make a right decision and you won't regret it in the future.
