Dear all,
My understanding of ICOs didn’t feel complete without participating in the process. Soon, I opened a Coinbase account and invested a few thousand dollars to see how the “system” works. I subscribed to crypto newsletters and ICO alerts. In the next few months, I participated, sometimes successfully and sometimes not so much, in a few ICOs.

Thanks,

I totally didn't understand what you're trying to say from this post.

Your question is how to invest in ICOs but you also said you successfully participated in some ICOs already then what else you want to know about investing in ICOs?

You mean to say some ICOs have given you profits and some are not?

ICOs investments are a very high risk and reward programs because if your ICOs picks up then you can make a lot of money otherwise you may lose most of your investment.

Kriptonok is young and not properly regulated, today investors need to be extra careful to protect themselves against high risks. However, in general, the crypto industry is growing, the market is growing up together with it, services and tools are emerging to regulate the market and protect against fraud.

Conducting a strategy in choosing ICO is not an easy thing, because ICO is very difficult to predict and even many people are deceived by the end result. Sometimes the ICO that looks convincing will in fact fail and when there is an unconvincing ICO but they can end successfully. It is sometimes that makes us feel dizzy in choosing, but there is one thing that can be a benchmark that read all the whitepaper and see the various discussions related to the ICO, I am optimistic we can be helped by various opinions from others. In the end we will decide what we will do.

When you are investing in ICO just look at the tech and then you will know if the team can deliver. Any ICO that has no working proof of concept? Stay away.

What is the point? =)

Just stick to teams that have a documented past of making releases.

Well you do not just invest to see how it works here, to see how the market works you must first learn how it works how it rolls you do not just try but I think it is called a luck for me do not get me wrong here (I got lucky once even I did not know how the progress of ICO works.
Now I learn that we must read everything before doing something or investing your money and waiting your time in it.
1. Read and watch everything about the book/ICO do leave a thing its an headache but it is worth it.
2. Know every opinion of the people when it comes to the ICO the process the works.

getting some ETH and BTC at coinbase is just the first step,
Most ICO need to be in ERC20 wallet and you need to use META or MEW to send your investment on their address and get your invested token on that wallet too.
Be sure to research more deeper on the project and the team, what are they future plans and roadmap, their whitepaper.
before investing it is better to study well on the token you will have.

There are 3 ways: invest in some ico, participate in bounty or do both at one time. You need to make up your own strategy.

Opening an account in Coinbase and getting a centralized wallet there to receive the ERC20 tokens from ICO projects is the worst choice. Get yourself a free decentralized wallet address which you own the private keys like MEW wallet for example.
Also take your careful time studying the project before investing, not all ICO projects are going to success and there are many scam projects.

I am wondering if the question is how to spot a good ICO, and advise. I will offer a subtle perspective based on that. ICO is just like going to the factories to buy products before they are brought to the open market. Such strategy is not entirely safe 100% of the time. You may be genius at picking good products at ICO stage and when they hit the market, you smile home with a huge ROI. You could be wrong some other time and the project goes under at birth. This is both thrilling as well as risky to say the least.
On the other hand, if you dyor and participate in promising projects, at least you won't be investing your entire income to receive some coins and if the project succeeds, it becomes a win win for you.
You try projects managed by Krypital or Amazix.

I think before investing you need to learn about crypto first, usually a lot of books that provide information about crypto, or a lot of reading on topics that discuss about crypto, then see the information or team about the project that you will inves, usually a good team will gives you more benefits, because with all the teamwork will run perfectly and succeed.

When investing in ICO you have to learn some steps that will help u guide in joining ICO. Here are some steps I have read and  learned so far:
1) Do Research on Upcoming ICOs
Look at resources or outlets that features the latest ICOs. Knowing which ICOs are coming up will enable you to plan ahead, especially for ICOs that has a whitelist.
2) You should perform your own research to ascertain that the ICO is a good project. You can also look at reviews and analysis done by others to verify the potential of the ICO.
3) ICO Participation Process
-Opening an Exchange Account
-Opening Your Own Wallets to Participate in ICO
-Follow the ICO Instructions
4) Exchanges to Trade ICO Coins
If you believe in the tech, then hold the coins for the medium to long-term, or until your price target is hit. If you just want to flip it, then sell it once it reaches an exchange that usually lists an ICO.

Apparently, any investment in ico company is a big risk. Despite the fact that at the beginning ico of the company is given large bonuses for the purchase of coins, you can not use any example of relative this project.

my advice, buy ico that is already in the market, i used to buy ico tokens in fork delta, i put the price with very cheap price

Before investing, you should learn about the virtual currency market, join the virtual money group. You have to pay for your game

I am also confused by the statement, but I am trying to understand the purpose of it, maybe he has followed some ICO and he got good results sometimes he lost his money, I think ICO works like that, if you participate in the right ICO you will get a lot of money, if the ICO fails, you also get a failure, place your bet and enjoy the process!

I think Kadentran is missing a strategy. Kadentran, think like a Venture Capitalist.

Here is a simple model:

In 6 cases, a VC leaves his investment without profit or low losses. In 3 cases a VC makes more or less profit. In one case, a VC makes a significant return.

It is only one "super star" necessary to achieve a good portfolio performance. The question remains, who is the next Super Star? Although you can do a deep analysis, surely nobody knows.

For this reason, a VC uses a kind of low-risk filter system, as briefly shown above.

asking how to invest in an ICO but your message seems not good with the title.
btw, you can't use coinbase to invest in most ICO as they need ERC20 wallets for that.
and i hope you are ready for their KYC.

To invest in any ICO, you would have to do your due diligence. Research is important. I would recommend Allstocks  for you. Awesome product with great team

You should know that each ICO project has their own invest way so it depend on which project you're going to invest in. But at the moment I think almost ICO project also require KYC for investor so you need to pass the KYC first if you want to invest in any ICO project. Beside I think you should stop using ICO alert, cause you only receive alert about project paid money for these services to promote for their projects.

To invest in an ICO project, you need an ETH wallet and have an ETH in it. Commonly used in the investment is Coinbase, then choose the right time to invest in the ICO, usually private and pre-ICO. And you should remember that ICOs always require KYC investors, so they need identification like passports.

Sorry maybe I can't answer your question well how to invest in ICOs.. I only want to share thectop two favorite resources to learn about ICOs.. here you are :
ICO Drops (ICO Drops)
ICO Drops is hands down my favorite place to research ICOs. The layout is simple and clean, so it’s easy to find active and upcoming ICOs. They rate ICOs based on hype and interest, which saves time. They even tell you if the ICO is available in all. countries.
ICO Alert (ICO Alert)
ICO Alert is my second favorite alternative to ICO Drops.

Hope it can help you :)

Yes, by seeing the ICO listing we can invest but we have to find the project potential otherwise, we will end up in loss. There are many ICO listing websites which has many ICO listing daily, but without researching we can't simply invest there.

you intend to make short-term investments using ICO and just a few months you have not felt anything, it's normal, the possibility you invest in a state of stable market conditions and you do not want to be patient to wait, try to invest long-term, maybe you can feel it.

Then You are looking for gems like blockchain   hotels. If you consider their business plan that aims at hopsitality (hotel) industry and through a mix of factors (white paper) will be able to bring the price down to be very competetive and focusing on crypto friendly atmosphere and communal area functionality ....

Nowadays in the world of crypto currency ICO is flourishing business. ICO is a project that helps young crypto currencies to start. If you want to invest in one of such projects, then you have to be serious with this issue. How I've said before there are a lot of ICO projects now, but it is difficult to choose the real one which is not a fraud. I can assign a few aspects for the best choice of ICO:

1) Look at the team, because the team is the face of the project. It would be better if the participants will be more than 8. It is important to note that they are really professional people with experience and that different people deal with technical, financial and marketing issues. Moreover, do not forget about the advisors. The existence of well-known advisors with previous successful projects is a big plus for the project’s team.

2) Team's openness. Look how actively the project is shown in the social networks. It's better to cooperate with people about whom you've already heard something. If the project uses social networks actively , and the founders have LinkedIn or Facebook, it means that they are open to questions from any person.

3) White Paper. On the website of any project you can find the white paper and have a look. This is a document, which describes all the activities of the project. There should be a financial assessment, business model, market assessment, competitor analysis, road map, technical model, marketing plan, and a description of the team members. White paper is the most important aspect of the project, where everything should be written clearly and detailed.

Anyway, the first two aspects are not so difficult for understanding, but the situation with the WP is more complicated, because in this case, only a professional analyst can make a verdict. Therefore, if you are interested in some project, look if there is any investment or technical expertise. Usually this is done by rating agencies, which not only make such examinations, but also do rating assignment of investors' attractiveness. In addition, I advise you to pay attention to the evaluation of the project on the sites of approved rating agencies, such as ALFA Rating (https://alfarating.com). Summing up, I would like to add that for selecting a good ICO, you have to take into account not only well-done site and its promotion in social networks, but also the quality expertise made by the analyst and the availability of the rating.

You are right, it's also a good idea ...We are not only listing but we have to find the information first to get the potential :)  thanks.

If be honest, I did not quite get the point of your question) .. you write about the fact that you are already participating in ICO and at the same time you ask about it.. I'm the newbie and too very much want to know the answer to your question)

Each ICO project has their own way to invest. Some project don't require sign up, you just need to send ETH or BTC to deposit address but with some other projects, you need to create an account to get investment address cause they want to keep investment address private and with this kind of project, you often need to do KYC to be able to invest.

At menlo.one we are creating a decentralized ICO marketplace that allows users to safely invest in the hottest ICO's safely, and also interact with the projects they are looking to invest in, in a way not previously available. We will have an ecosystem full of blockchain experts exchanging information, research and due diligence with each other, meaning you can be fully confident in your investment. Please check out our website and join our Telegram chat, we'd love to tell you more about the project! Thanks everyone :) www.menlo.one

First, make sure you choose a solid project to invest in,carefully examine the project,do your due diligence: Read the information on the project's website, check out the team and the advisors, and read up on their backgrounds,after you've carefully considered all of the above and decided you want to participate in an ICO, make sure you know how cryptocurrencies work.

Then, send the amount of ether you want to invest to your wallet. (Never send money to an ICO from an exchange; always send from a wallet such as Parity or MEW.) At the time of the ICO, you will send this ether to the ICO contract address. Protect the wallet with a password, and store it safely. If you lose access to your wallet, you lose all your funds. 

Before we go further, understand that all ICOs are different. There are no rules set in stone. Some ICOs aren't on the Ethereum platform, but majority are.In the simplest of terms, the process of the ICO boils down to this: You send some ether to an address, and after the ICO's done, you get tokens in an amount proportionate to the amount of ether you've sent.

Generally in my opinion ICO is always a good option.  In particular, it is very profitable to look for companies that are only gaining momentum and investing in them, because after a rapid growth on this you can raise the money.  Of these, companies have recently found Paytomat for themselves.  As if the company is not very popular, it already cooperates with NEM and Hacken, which I trust.  Details can be read on them on the telegram channel, called Paytomat Announcements.  But in general, I do not want to impose my point of view, so think for yourself

Many people in my environment ask me where I invest.  But I think this question is not correct, because each individual chooses investment individually, in addition to the aspects of profit, it is necessary to oversee the value component as well.  So it is desirable to define at least between bitcoinom and ICO, but in these spheres already to choose more personally.  For example, I chose Paymot.  because my selection criteria are trust in the company, publicity, openness, stability and a couple more.  But the main premise of this comment is that everyone chooses himself

I always look for some good new companies for investment, I select them according to several criteria, publicity, openness, perspective, need personally to me.  And then I consider them a good investment not important for a month or a year.  Well, for example, I can mention Paytomat from the last, I know that their idea will be relevant to me.  Because the problem of transferring real money to Coins is now very topical4

I see more and more people talking about Paytomat.  And at first I thought that it was a bad spam, but I decided to take a chance and, at the beginning, I did a little bit of risk, and then it all turned out to be surprisingly good, I wondered where it was, and it was not there, it was strange because it got used to everyone who wants to swear.  But the company is really cool and sincere.  Therefore, do not think that the spam, was simply surprised by this discovery

Be selective if which piggybank you put your coins. You can't 100% know the future of an ICO, but you can make research.
_the team,
_the working product,
_the hype etc.
Good Luck!

Well.. Investing in ICO's can be very profitable due to the fact that one is able to get in asset quick and often ahead of other market participants. This is important fact to consider that one should be very careful when deciding and judging which coin is worth to invest in and which not if one is looking to make money in this market. Investing in ICO, first you must  to know about crypto and most likely strategic thinking and asset judgement is needed inorder to decrease chances of entering bad asset.

Investing in ico is a great idea. But there are a huge number of risks. To become an expert in choosing an ico, I recommend first to participate in the bounty

lots of ICOs release everyday... but most of them are scams, I think.
actually, you wouldn't know if that scam or not. investors has nothing but risks.
that is high risk investment. so I think you should not throw too much.

but you still can go to the internet too see what people are saying about that ICO, community is very important.

not all ICO projects are successful, some fail because the funds collected do not reach the minimum required, and some even fail because the developer team leaves the investor.

we need to be more selective in choosing ICO projects that we will invest.

I think you would like to know all the process:
1) how to put the money in the system;
2) how to buy the crypto currency used to pay in the ICO (usually BTC or ETH)
3) how to create a cold storage wallet where to deposit your tokens/coins bought;
4) how to find the right ICOs where to put your money;
5) how to buy the actual coin/token from the ico;
6) how to check if you have received it.

1) The first step you did it already. Coinbase account, buy crypto. good
2) Check number 1.
3) It depends on the token/coin:
 a) ERC-20  >> create an account on MyEtherWallet >> https://www.myetherwallet.com/ (https://www.myetherwallet.com/). The website will take you through all the right steps. Read them all carefully.
 b) BTC wallet  >> I reccomend https://blockchain.info/wallet/  (https://blockchain.info/wallet/). Download the app, backup your account by writing the recovery text on a paper (in 5 copies, very well hidden), get your public address and use it to send your fund to that address.
 c) Nep5 >> download their desktop app, back it up, get your address and use it to store your tokens.
 d) just download their app whatever that is if it's a new blockchain, back it up and use the public address to store your new coins.
4) search the ones that have a visible team, working product, are solving a real problem and that your confident about it.
5) send the ETH or BTC to the address provided by them in order to pay the actual token/coin that you want to buy.
6) stay updated with their social pages and groups to know exactly when they will arrive.

Hope it helps

for large investments, I would choose projects with a rating above 4.5, and, in general, at the moment there are many litecoins with a high capitalization)

Correct, I have seen many projects that on paper look great and you may think that those projects are going to become a huge success and then nothing happens with them until those projects disappear, and I have seen many projects for which I will not invest in a single cent and yet I have seen those projects skyrocketing and giving great profits to those that invested in the ico.

ICO investment is always risky but we should pick the best platform this will make big profit in future. First we must choose the 5 ICOs then check the review and rating of all the five. Then we should check the white paper, road map and developing team these are very important to find the right platform. But after investing this will make fail also possible so best projects are not easily find once pick the right platform you must stay long term automatically this will going to moon.

Most important aspects when investing in ICO's are tech., team and community. The most critical element is, are they solving people's largest problems? Check out this solid project I've been keeping my eyes on, what do you think, would you invest? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3085831.0

we can select the best ico from icorating.com and check the prices and as per the rating we can invest in icos . we need to make a strategy before investing

it is a good achievement, for the benefit of profit although it can be only a little worth to be grateful for. my suggestion choose ICO which bids the program clear and more detailed. first understand what the ICO developers offer.

Go to the website, do the KYC and deposit with your Ethereum address, I recommend ETH, because probably you will buy ERC-20 token based on Ethereum ;).

many have tried ico companies lately.  And there is a very high risk of investing in untested companies, you need to identify a good public company with a promising goal for you.  For me, Paytomat has been identified as such.  Generally, everyone has to define their personal goals for investment.  Because ICO is, in my opinion, a thing of the future. \

I see more and more people talking about Paytomat.  And at first I thought that it was a bad spam, but I decided to take a chance and, at the beginning, I started to invest a lot of risk, and later I began to trust them more and more, I wondered where it was, and it was not, it was strange because it's used to everyone who wants to screw up.  But the company is really cool and sincere.  Therefore, do not think that the spam, was simply surprised by this discovery

So, let's think together how best to choose a good ICO and which one has a future.  Recently, it's as if in a trend to create a project and an ICO to it, but is it worth anyway?  I think no, in my opinion, you need to understand that it is worth investing only in the company that has a clear real target.  And this target will be actual after implementation.  After a long analysis for myself, I selected Paytomat.  I will not be long argument for why.  If you wish, you can read more information on their telegrams on the Paytomat Announcements channel.  It is necessary to carefully select the company, collect a lot of information from different sources because 90% of companies can very quickly collapse

Investing in ICOs takes alot more than just buying and selling. It requires you to look into the team, idea, marketing, roadmaps and implentation. Even though there is alot who dont have all this and still make tremendous progress. Now after looking into all the above named, ypu know when to buy and when go sell. Inorder to avoid lose, which is very possible if proper care is not taken. Moreso like a friend advised. The best ICOs give out a max range of 3m tokens most times it sits at 2m. These are always the best to look out for.

i can tell you the easy way...  theres a group of traders are launching a new service called tokenway, where they invest everymonth in the best ico and deliver them to you, like a monthly basket.

Check them out.  platform coming out soon, and i think the registration will close after 100 subs.
www.tokenway.io

Generally in my opinion ICO is always a good option.  In particular, it is very profitable to look for companies that are gaining momentum. Of these, companies have recently found Paytomat for themselves.  As if the company is not very popular, it already cooperates with NEM and Hacken, which I trust.  The details can be read on telegram chats, called Paytomat Announcements.  But in general, I do not want to impose my point of view, so think for yourself

To invest in an ICO project, you need an ETH wallet and have an ETH in it. Commonly used in the investment is Coinbase, then choose the right time to invest in the ICO, usually private and pre-ICO. And you should remember that ICOs always require KYC investors, so they need identification like passports. The most important thing to watch out for. You need to do everything you want carefully.

You have to be careful, you do not invest ICO scam. Preferably before you invest, you think with maturity, profit and loss of investment on ICO that you will buy

To decide whether to invest in a project or not, we need to analyze everything well. Evaluate the uniqueness of the product, the size and activity of the community formed around it, the potential of the accompanying market, calculate the possible payback periods, return parameters and potential profitability and only then decide whether you need to invest.

This is an interesting question.  The first step should be to choose a company for yourself.  Here it is worth dwelling on certain criteria.  Reliability of the company, the relevance of the project, the importance of the case for people.  These criteria have chosen Paymot.  Well, this is my choice personally, I'm happy at the moment

Now that you've invested thousands of dollars and successfully joined ico. What else do you want to know?

Investing in any ICO is a simple process but we have to be very careful when dealing with them because without proper about the tech behind the project, you cannot make more money through it. So we have to understand the project details clearly.

It seems to me that for investment in ICO it is necessary to allocate a certain amount, the loss of which will not be critical. Also, I would advise not to invest in one ICO more than 10% of the total amount of money, besides carefully choose the project. So I think that this can not be called a simple process

When you are going to invest on ICOs, make sure first that the dev team is cery transparent and that they always give an update and does not hesitate to answer all inquiries, not just giving you a link to their website, some ICOs as well are just hyping, make sure that you understand first what the project is all about and whether the project would succeed for a long time, since we have POS coins now, some attract people to invest in them by giving a huge amount of reward and in the long run, there will br oversaturation of coins and the value will drop, just make sure you update yourself with new coins.

My primary goal in investing in ICO's was to research and understand how this new market is working now. It is overhyped and it looks like a bubble. Nonetheless, the blockchain technology and decentralized ecosystem are likely to change how our societies operates. Before you can invest in an ICO, you have to buy Ethereum. Setting up Myetherwallet, since most of the ICO are based on Ethereum smart contacts your crypto wallet has to support receiving tokens.

Each project publishes detailed instructions on how to properly invest and become one of the participants in ICO. You can watch different videos on the Internet and do everything as in the example)

if you want to inves into ico then you have to follow step that exist in trading, because if you wrong step choose ico then you own that will be loss.

You should know that each ICO project has their own invest way so it depend on which project you're going to invest in. But at the moment I think almost ICO project also require KYC for investor so you need to pass the KYC first if you want to invest in any ICO project.

Make a little research in the ICO's you want to part task in If the projects he are highly rated by ICO review sites, making their names even if they haven't started in the ICO sale, must be hyped up by the community and of course the team behind the project.

Eeh man, i don't get it. What do you mean invest? You said that you already participated in some ICOs. That's weirdest question that i've ever read

if u are planning to invest in icos i prefer to check this website very often for ico data analysis website icorating.com they have in-depth research on upcoming icos

First of all, always do your own research before investing in a project.

Looking at the project as a whole and looking at the team behind it, is very important to make a correct decision.

If I can give you guys my opinion, I discovered an exciting ICO that is very interesting: RAWG.

Look at this article where the team explains:

“Why the games market needs RAWG”

https://medium.com/rawg/wp-bits-1-why-the-games-market-needs-rawg-ccf039c0bae7 (https://medium.com/rawg/wp-bits-1-why-the-games-market-needs-rawg-ccf039c0bae7)

The ICO will start in a short period and they are at the moment in pre-ICO phase. This is the ICO site: https://token.rawg.io (https://token.rawg.io)/. It's a video game discovery platform that converts your skills into goods and services (the site is already working, with more than 57,000 games in the database) and, which is very interesting, they have already reached the soft cap.

Have a look and get some information while doing your own research!

In order to invest in an ICO, after you did an account on Coinbase and bought your BTC/ETH, then you gotta search for a good project to participate in the ICO. One such good project that is still in the ICO is #Blocnation. Excellent use of the BNTN token - to pay for a drink at Tomorrowland, the idea is already working and being successful. As long as you would like to participate in this ICO, you should buy KMD.
Next step should be to create an exchange account such as Binance that has most of the tokens used to pay for a new token in an ICO.
So after you create a Binance account, send your BTC/ETH from Coinbase to Binance account, buy the coin accepted in that ICO (in this case KMD) and afterwards send that coin to the address that the team has provided you. That is pretty much it.
Take a look at this project that I told you about and make your own decision to invest in it or not: https://blocnation.io/
Stay safe!

Icos are tricky but look for those with a great  reputation and good team, like Allstocks

Eeh man, i don't get it. What do you mean invest? You said that you already participated in some ICOs. That's weirdest question that i've ever read

To be honest, I was disappointed in the ICO, because now it is very difficult to find real projects and I lost money many times despite carefully thought out projects for investing...

now is a very difficult time, before investing in the project I advise you to study the project in detail!

Invest a lot of mind is not necessary! Now is the time when there is a lot of scum among ICO! You need to carefully study the project! I'm afraid of losing money because of any experiments! We need to choose projects more carefully!

Look for an investment with a hardworking team. Wpp token is one

The key is right combination of innovation vis-a-vis regulatory compliance.
ICO is great tool to connect entrepreneurs with public fund and i would love to read more about it.
The investor and government may rightly be concerned about checks and balances in ICO and exchange of cryptocurrency and i trust, some of the issues will be sorted out with time and trust.

for investment in ico the way is very easy you just need to register on the website after that you follow the instructions on the website sometimes investors also need a passport and some identity identifier for KYC and I suggest for your wallet can use the purse that suport erc20 like myetherwallet.

First of all, always do your own research before investing in a project.

Looking at the project as a whole and looking at the team behind it, is very important to make a correct decision.

If I can give you guys my opinion, I discovered an exciting ICO that is very interesting: RAWG.

Check out this great article from Entrepreneur, one of the most popular business-related magazines, which has spoken with RAWG founder, Gadji Makhtiev.

https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/316194 (https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/316194)

RAWG is a blockchain-based platform for gamers that was born last year in the heads of Gadji and RAWG CPO Alexey when they found out that their gaming website Kanobu attracted users for their gaming database.

The ICO will start in a short period and they are at the moment in pre-ICO phase. This is the ICO site: https://token.rawg.io (https://token.rawg.io)/. It's a video game discovery platform that converts your skills into goods and services (the site is already working, with more than 57,000 games in the database) and, which is very interesting, they have already reached the soft cap.

I try not to invest large sums in the company, even if I am very confident that it will succeed in the shortest time and will give a big profit to me

invest in ICO can be a great idea,, to make a good profit in short time
but, in can be a bad idea too,, because at this moment a lot of ICO failed to reach the soft cap,, and the project become failed project
know more the project, such as read the whitepaper and roadmap carefully, also know who is the team behind the project my friend

Following points is to be consider before investing in an ICOs
1) Idea :- Idea of the project must be realistic and should be achievable as per the roadmap or timeline of the project. Idea of the project should useful for the community and should contribute some thing in the industry. Idea of the project tells a lot about the project like what their goals and whats there in for the investors.
2) Team :- Team background is also important factor for choosing an ICO for investment take simple example, Do you want to build the new Google based on Artificial Intelligence? Great! But there are only Marketers in your team. Where are the developers that will create the product?. Before investing check team members real Social media profile is listed on website with clear coloured photos. Check their experience whether they have worked on the projects related to blockchain or the startups related to this industry.
3) Vision :- Vision of the project should be transparent & identifiable. Team members must be able to explain their vision to the contributors easily. For example whenever we take name of Bitcoin we say its digital money, Ethereum - we say smart contract, Ripple we say cyrptocurency for enhancing banking sector.
4) Product :- Product also plays an important role for choosing and ICOs, ask your self before making your decision to invest in an ICO "What product ICO is offering and why there’s a need for running it on the blockchain?. If you could not get answer by yourself thats great if not don't hesitate to ask in the community if they answer nicely than its ok & if they not then there is something fishy.

Be very wary of new projects that are looking for your ID information when participating in an ICO. I know that there are regulations to conform to, but any ICO worth its salt will have a trusted third party handling their ID verifications, rather than storing your data themselves, as this is vulnerable to hacking.

You should be about that apiece ICO bulge has their have wash mean so it as read on which bulge you're ephemeral to wash in.

ICO is actually very simple, but the main thing that can be done is to choose the right project. This is the key to success, in my opinion. If you do not learn how to choose the right project then you will not get any profitable investment

Firstly, the ICO was decentralized with no central authority, secondly, the ICOs lacked the tedious red tape that most IPOs were bogged down by and finally, they were unregulated while IPOs have always under been heavy regulation. Now there was a problem that blockchain based companies were facing when it came to ICOs.

The ICO investing is totally and completely different from other type of investment that are not cryptocurrency! You need to have basic understanding of cryptocurrency and how using a currency on top of another cryptocurency to create an economy of your ICO!

The strange question in the title of your topic. Each campaign has an algorithm of actions and how to invest in them correctly

Your investment should start with the amount that. it would be a shame to lose . Each project has its own personal instructions where you can read them carefully . And understand .

I consider it necessary to be careful in this matter, I do not really like to invest in new ICOs, there are certain projects that directly feel that they will make a profit, in such I participate, but how many try to participate in almost all, so I do not!

You did everything right, you need to do it this way, thanks to the method of trial and error and the study of the basics of this process. More you can not start earning through investment

The following factors need to be researched thoroughly in order to differentiate between a legit and scam ICO:

-Whitepaper
-Development team
-Social media interactions by the development team
-Bonuses provided
-Soft cap and Hard cap

Researching these factors has almost always helped me avoid scam ICOs completely which is why I always advise doing your research before investing into any particular ICO.

your suggestion is correct but it is time consuming and inefficient, my suggestion is you should make a judgment based on their product, if they have mvp or beta app, you try and analyze.

You need to do intensive research before you put your money on ICOs. Being able to pick the ones that will actually make a working product and will benefit the masses is really hard to get by due to the current stream of projects. I would suggest checking ICODrops to see what they can recommend about upcoming ICOs.

Investing in ICO is really something of careful observation. Never jump into investing in any ICO. Mark out time to check all the relevant information needed before making investment. Some ICOs have turned out to be fraudulent while others have turned out successful. Check reviews, read through their whitepapers and ensure you pick critical points beofe making investment.

For investment in an ICO. Of course things you should do first is to choose a good project ICO. If you are unsure on a project, then you can read the rules, how to invest in the project. In addition, you should also understand, that you should be investing in coins. Most of the ICO use ethereum. Then we recommend that you prepare your coins, too.

Very responsible approach to the selection of the project.
To study all possible information on the project.
To communicate with other potential investors at the forums, where information on the project is published.
If knowledge is allowed, then study the project code and its business model.
Assess the risks of investing.
If you are looking for a new way of investing, then ICO is what you need. If the analysis is correct, the profit from the ICO will exceed the profit from the IPO several times. But remember that investments are associated with an increased risk and any investment should be treated very deliberately.

It seems to me that you are right in your actions, otherwise you can not earn. You only need to study the market and enough theory to understand what project you need to invest, and what is not and what actions are best not to perform

Unfortunately everyone seems to be going off hype of projects and then they get bitten and behold you get a bearish market. guys invest in icos that you believe in for the technology. for how they disrupt centralized system and whether you believe the team with their partners can deliver. dont go on hype.

It's an ICO winter right now so make sure to be careful about picking just any ICO.

Be exceptionally careful about new activities that are searching for your ID data while taking an interest in an ICO. I realize that there are controls to fit in with, yet any ICO deserving at least moderate respect will host a confided in third gathering taking care of their ID confirmations, as opposed to putting away your information themselves, as this is helpless against hacking.

The first thing to look out for is the team behind the project, if you find them on social media, especially linked in, check their background, past works, etc. After you assure that they are not some scammers then you can easily read the whitepaper of the project to see what the project is about.

Your English is so fucking terrible :). I can't get what you mean and the reason why you create this thread :). You wanna invest in ICO but you don't know the way to invest? Or you don't know the way to find out good ICO project to invest in? Forget it, I'll not show you anything unless you improve your English at first :)

First thing you should look out for is the members of the project, you definitely need to check their background to see their previous projects, their reliability, etc, after you check that they are completely legit, than read their whitepaper and start searching for the project itself, what is it all about and does it meet your requeriments...

So, are you telling us about your experience on investing in ICOs? teching us or asking for advice? Making an investment is too simple yet the process of choosing the right ICO is more complicated especially if you don't have any prior knowledge about on how your so called "system" works.

Investing in ICOs requires a lot of hard work as you perform a personal study into the project in other identify the right ICO. First of all, you must know the idea behind the project by reading the whitepaper. Is the idea worth attracting the interest of investors? If yes, then you are a step towards a good ICO. Also, check the credentials and status of the team members in order to weigh their expertise towards carrying the project to its full realization.

you can invest in ICO because I know if you want to invest in ICO you have to be careful and you better look at the white paper first if you want to follow a good ICO project and avoid the fraud so from now on it's a lot of people who invest in crypto because ICO is a lot of scams

My essential objective in putting resources into ICO's was to explore and see how this new market is functioning at this point. It is overhyped and it would seem that an air pocket. In any case, the blockchain innovation and decentralized biological system are probably going to change how our social orders works. Before you can put resources into an ICO, you need to purchase Ethereum. Setting up Myetherwallet, since the greater part of the ICO depend on Ethereum brilliant contacts your crypto wallet needs to help getting tokens.

the real thing about an ico is to join when there are (50% off from token price) most icos do some pr sales. But the chance of being scammed is higher at the prsale aswell

So do I. Your title and your content are not relating. So, your question is "How to earn the money for investing to ICOs?"

I think the most important thing when you want to invest in ICO is; First, Check team background, look for transparency, work experience, and their emotional maturity. Then ... learn about the products they offer. there must be a clear 'need' to be met, a market with a solution and ideally a long-term vision there must be clear and profitable. Read their whitepapers carefully, look at the roadmap and through the currency industry and Blockchain addressed.

You must first be really knowledgeable about the start-up principles of the projects and consider whether the project is viable and profitable by the experts from the well-known ICO review sites. You can find out on google
Good luck !

Most people like investing in a project when they are having their pre-Ico sale, because it is usually cheaper to buy and invest in. It is important to take into consideration the team members behind it, the white paper, and reviews by others. Check out social media platform and check what's on the news about the project, before investing in it.

not each ICO tasks are champion, any potency seeing the courses pacific determine not extend the extremum incomprehensible, and any eve potency seeing the developer gang gos away the investor.

You need study first ICO's if they have good product, software or application and check if they have team in website in real pictures with link thier social site. You check also if they have more community and more people invest in their ICO you can check their website or ask any of admin assign like telegram. And the last check if they reach the soft cap if not i think its better not to invest in their ICO's.

many have attempted ico organizations of late. Also, there is a high danger of putting resources into untested organizations, you have to recognize a decent open organization with a promising objective for you. For me, Paytomat has been distinguished all things considered. For the most part, everybody needs to characterize their own objectives for venture. Since ICO is, as I would see it, a thing without bounds. \

The moment to buy bitcoin:
- Pre - ICO is the best (If you know)
- Right at the ICO is second best (If you buy)
- After the rise in ICO prices depend on the market

And some other criteria ...

When entered in the ICO needs to be more than just the knowledge to be able to make this become profitable. in the election of ICO when not right then it would be a pretty big problem especially when caught up in the scam. therefore learn about the analysis is an important thing to do.

In order to invest correctly, you need to study the project at the very beginning, in which you want to invest, only after studying, attention, only after a detailed study of the project, you can invest, it is not difficult.

This is step-by-step for you to invest in ICO:

1) Check and find out potential ICO (company/team/idea/solution/market/investors/partnerships/community...)
2) If paying in fiat is allowed: you just need to create account on ICo website and send fiat to ICO bank address.
3) If not, you need to buy BTC/ETH/LTC and send there cryptocurrency to ICO wallet address.

I see an ever increasing number of individuals discussing Paytomat. Furthermore, at first I imagined that it was an awful spam, yet I chose to take a risk and, toward the starting, I completed a tad of hazard, and afterward everything ended up being shockingly great, I pondered where it was, and it was not there, it was abnormal in light of the fact that it became acclimated to everybody who needs to swear.

in my opinion, buy ico that is already in the market and before that you have to and are obliged to learn the ico and also do the research and do not easily believe what people say.

Usually every ICO have their own guidelines on how to participate on their crowdsale so its not a problem anymore. For me you have to focus on looking for a good ICO and make a full effort studying the project so your money will be worth it. Also remember the time frame of your investment because most of the ICO now last for more than 2months so make sure you understand their roadmap.

The ICO is indeed quite interesting and in fact, there are many investors who are currently investing in many ICO projects. Various innovations in the ICO project have made more and more people start participating, it is related to various unique and interesting implementations. So now actually investing in ICOs is a profitable thing, but it should be noted that this investment is quite risky because after a while ago there were so many events that resulted in an ICOs failing to achieve softcap and hardcap...
