Bitcoin Forum

I’ve been searching around this forum for a while and see a lot of ANN threads here. But I’m very interested what ICOs and projects really achieved great results. Saying "successful" I don't mean these projects that just going to launch ICO. I mean projects that have already collected money and released product.

For example, this blockchain game. They collected good money and now it’s one of the most popular blockchain game. Here you can read an interview with it’s developer https://gameunculus.io/blog/96 (I don’t send direct link to their website not to make them advertisement)  

And what projects do you know?

This board is meant for discussions related to bitcoin.
Your thread is more suited for altcoin discussion as it is about ICOs and alts.
You can move it using the option at the bottom left.

Edit: Now you've moved it.
There are a lot of ICOs which were resounding successes.
I like to weigh more the successes after the ICO and funds raised. How does the team plan and execute going forward.
One of my best ICOs for 2018 would be Countinghouse (CHT). Not so much was raised during the ICO, but the team were forward thinking and the project is flying high and getting lots of attention now.

yes, games have promising icos, like crypto kitties

sure. already moved

you are right, crypto kitties is a good example

not just games can have success on ICO field. I believe projects with real existing products can be successful too

lol, such a stupid advertising of ico.
mate, there are tons (hundreds and thousands) of successful ico projects, so this is not the only one.

Just open coinmarketcap and check for succesfull icos. It is the easiest way to see which one is ended good. First 200 should be enough.

I mean finished ICOs, guys. Who already collected and launched products

I do not understand the meaning of the phrase "successful project." You say that a "successful project" is one that was able to collect the required amount of money and launched its product. I will be very happy if you tell me the projects that are now completely followed up on what was indicated in the white paper, which is fully functioning and is used by many people.

it seems you forgot about ETH ? because they did an IPO aka ICO a while ago and it can be considered as one of the most successful ICOs/IPOs project.
well, not only ETH there are ton of projects that can be considered as one either.
like NEO,Stratis,Waves,NANO,BNB and others.
if we breakdown it one by one, i am afraid it will take a lot of time to finish it. let's make it simpler, what kind of project that you are looking for ?

Nowadays is too hard to find the really good ICO project. Most of them are just trying to make money on us.
Do you know some ICO which we can believe?       

I don't mean projects that are able to collect the needed amount of money. I mean projects that already did it. So the same as you bro, I want to know it too

If we realize that there have been hundreds of projects circulating that have achieved their goals (success), maybe that's what you mean. But it will make us even more confused when we want to choose. Maybe you should also look at Marketcap, there are many choices. Please try.

I can testify to eos. Eos raised a lot of fund and they have delivery largest part of what the team promised part of it launch of eos mainnet many of 2017 are failing miserably, eos has proved to they mean business.

View ICOs is successful but i will mention one i participated XLM is a good coin , xlm price hasn't fall below ICO price this time of dip market XLM price is stable , xlm have product ,

Is these types of project looks successful to you? I haven't even heard about this stuff about WAR field. There are lots of projects succeed and you can normally or just based on your eyesight which ones do able to stand out.


Top 50 would be more realistic on this case.

Today it is a huge rarity. and the fact is that when you invest funds into a project or if you participate in the company’s bounty of this project, we cannot know in advance whether the project will be successful and promising.

Some have already released their products but the sad thing is that nobody's using them. I have seen hundreds of crowdsales, loads of products but the majority of them are trying to solve non-existing problems. There is no user base, just token holders.

Many of the ICO's for exchanges have been very successful not only from a product release standpoint but also from the perspective of providing a very good return to investors. A lot of ICO's from last year were about building the tools to later create interesting applications, those ones are continuing to develope and we see them releasing products on a regular basis. The ones that have struggled are the non exchange applications who have had a hard time creating products that people want to interact with because the underlying infrastructure was just not there to create really dynamic applications.

This is not a small task to check for successful ones.. as I think it is the long run and how the team is going to deliver on their roadmap could make ALL the difference. But I see great potential in ARROUND ico. This targeting the augmented reality and blockchain tech..

Smile,  there are lots of successful icos out there, I won't mention. When project is having a good team and huge prospects, trust me it would be successful no doubt.  Mind you, the usefulness of the project is really important

it is really difficult to find a good ICO now, to be honest. I don't believe in this market anymore

Success of an ICO is seen from the final results or very large income, how can this happen? We can see from the way the team works in an ICO that must be responsible, diligent, smart, people who are in the team must have expertise in their fields and most importantly can develop an ICO in Successful.

I do really want to see results. I believe it's time

If you do not believe in this market, why are you here? And why are you worrying about ICO success or failure? If you have lost your faith then you should leave it and do another job. Market is so bad and it makes so many people nervous and anxious

btw I like this tread because I don'r see any good products after many ICOs

The most successful ICO's this year have been the ICO's for exchanges. Just found this one and it looks really impressive. https://contest.t.exchange/ !

One of the successful ICOs I know is electroneum. It reached hardcap and is still above ICO price now. It is included in the top 100 crypto in CMC and most of all, the team is very credible and hardworking. There are some other hardcap ICOs that failed to deliver their promise like INS.

No matter if you're trying to promote this blog or not. Thank you for sharing. I'm also very interested in blockchain game and this blog is what I need to know about blockchain games available on the internet at the moment. Beside, website interface is very great, I love it.

what about their product?

well it's 2k18 and I've expected to see a lot of good products. but none of them

I think that this is about the whole market situation. After the decreasing of good alt coins the ICO´s have also the same pattern and after listing on exchange they decrease.

but I really want to see good products! as everyone promised

But not all projects come to the market without a ready product. Some of them have something to show before collecting money. For example, Robotina has products in the field of energy optimization.

One of the most successful ICOs of all time just has to be NEO.
I remember that during the early funding phases, tokens were worth just about $0.05 and the value just skyrocketed after they launched their blockchain.

Now they're still worth around $15, but were over $100 at one point.

i like projects like that. they do something very useful

There were a lot of great ICOs that reached amazing goals! And today, there are also tons of amazing projects. We just need to be more selective with ICOs that we are participating in. Maybe it would help to protect us from scam.

Ethereum is the most successful ICO and no project yet beat the record it holds. From fund raised to how it's widely used and accepted Ethereum is leader of all ICO.

I wish there will be more good projects. I really wait for good projects

For me, there are lots of successful ICO's out there, gained a desired amount of capitalization and has been in the exchanges, but what i see this time around is that most of this ico's failed to continue their roadmaps and has changed in direction, for example cryptassist, they have gained such amount of capitalization but lately they changed their plan.

Yeah crypto kitties was one of the best example of a really successful ICO, hoping i can find another one and participate maybe the ICO.

It seems to me promising ICO the project AERGO, they did not have a public sale, and they collected almost everything at the stage of presale.

And this is a big problem. Most projects have solutions to problems that are not relevant now, that is, ideas are not used, and therefore there is no need for the project, all this leads to the fact that the project token falls in price because no one needs it.

I know the simmiliar project named gamecity, the presale start yesterday and i think that's quite good project.
Search it on google because i can't give you the link

Docademic was pleasantly surprised by the huge X in a few months, now the success of the blackbox company is expected.  Do not believe those who say that ico died

"Successful ICOs" until now the most successful project I've ever seen is ETH, and projects that only sell enough money to run and reach the floor are barely alive. They only draw projects to sell money and exchange lists. is not responsible and then the project is dying gradually.

There's a lot of successful ICO's on market, but only few of them has a real usage since mostly of the coins are being created for collecting money from the investors, for me, only ethereum has a real usage because a lot of the projects now are using their technology.

Most of them created non sense idea and i have seen that so many times when there was a project was creating an ico to solve irrelevant problem. These guys must learn about how to discover the real problem and try to search the best answer to fix it. One of non sense idea just like decentralized VR and what will be fixed by the project that created decentralized VR? that's a joke

Profitable projects very often raise a lot of money, because projects really have a lot of useful things, that's why they collect a lot of money, because people just don’t have time to invest, because there are a lot of people who want to.

we must support only promising projects and those that will be in demand in society, they help to produce empty ico companies that will only litter the cryptocurrency market.

With some pretty due diligence there are so many of them with great success which have actually managed to develop or build on the existing product over time, although, it is still understandable that there are more scam ICOs than those with projects.

At least, there are the likes of COSS, KICK or if you are looking for the safest place to want to invest, just do some diligence on the top 100 coins, and then try to put your money where your mouth is as this at least gives you some level of guarantee that this is where majority of investors have decided to put their money but all in all, never make the mistake of not doing your own research.

Just look at the top 100 crypto currencies. 90 percent of them had an ICO and the other 10 percent were hardforks. But the problem is that the majority of projects still do not have any working product. In my opinion, it is pretty bad for the whole industry.

Not a small task at all, and there is actually no point asking here because what seems successful to some people may not be successful to some, what is important as an individual is to at least try as much as possible to cross check vividly what you are investing in.

There will be more projects though coming into the market that will most definitely be able to make some impact product wise in the long run, from current ICOs, but to be on the safest spot, I will advise the OP to start from the top of the market cap and do some diligence on at least the top 50, while filtering out the one he feels he would want to invest in for the long term.

I think EOS is one of those coins to have a successful ICO launch. The ICO sold about $196,874,404 according to ICO drops. Today, EOS already main net a couple of months and already have block chain of their own and still creating more development on the platform.

Unfortunately, I see a very depressing picture. Today there are quite good ICO, but they just don’t collect money! And in 2017, each fucking scam collected millions!

Recently I saw Krypital having a pretty ICO that was Eloncity, have you heard about it before? In the per-sale they raised 25m $ and the hardcap was 33m $. At the end of November, public sale will take place and I am confident that they will reach a hardcap soon

Now it is very difficult to choose a successful ICO, so that he could then collect the necessary money for this. ICO can be really successful, but due to the small course of the ether, the campaign can not collect even the software soft cup. Therefore, it’s better to participate as much as possible in ICO

There are many good ICOs but mostly all of them fall in price after listing on exchanes. I think that we need to wait until the next bullrun. The most profitable ICO for me was 0x but it was long ago.

Identifying a successful project is not as easy as it may seem since the conditions that you are giving are not enough, the developers could just release a buggy product and in theory they will fulfill the conditions that you specified, some others will define success if they made money with a coin but that is not enough either since there are many coins that skyrocket and are scams.

There are so many ICO projects now, and if you want to be truly successful, the team's workload is very large.

yeah, eos is pretty promising. even crypto cuties now are on eos too

i just love and trust ETH ICOs

I like both EOS and ETH. EOS seems to be more technological but ETH proved its reliability. I think in next year we will see the leader in this field.

yes that right brother ,  i have read the whitepaper  Bravo is very promising project  and have strong comunity team , i have invest on BRAVO and i wish bravo will huge succses

IOS Token was a very successful ICO where the ICO price was only 0.01 dollars but it went all the way till 0.06$ and a lot of people actually invested in that. It is also listed on almost every website.
Now, I am hoping a similar return from Fiiicoin since it is already trading above the ICO price and with other sales coming in future, it will only improve further.

I am also very interested in the Bravo project, which is very good in 2018. Also it made me interested in having a huge investor shark tank America

You can still find a lot of good ICO projects. Just check the total funds raised during campaign, and the future plans of development this project.

The this is that I don't wanna read about their future plans. I want to see real already made projects

the projects that ICO reaches Hardcap are currently very few, reaching Softcap alone is very lucky, as well as if all have finished contributing to all parties delay. all projects are very frustrating at this time even though the project reached Hardcap

I think that it is difficult to say how successful the project is. While the project does not have a working product, it cannot be called successful. In the current market, the price does not reflect the level of development of the projects.

yeah, it's very disappointing. I really want to see products and not reached hardcaps

Yes, exactly there are many ICO's once time they had struggling in their growth but now they are hugely successful. And one of them is Travelflex. It's a great project with a nice idea. And it's was my privileged that I had got that chance to work for them.

There are a lot of projects or ICO that has been successful, you can find them also in coinmarketcap where the list of all projects that are in exchanges and gained also a profit of it.

I would single out such projects as ziliqa and ontology because they shot very hard in early 2018

There are many projects who are working hard at their MVP and some that have already released a product to the market.  Pundix,  robotina,  and recently Swipe.  Swipe is yet to finish it's ICO campaign before they release  blockpost app that feed you all the happenings in cryptocurrency!

Truth be told, there are some very dedicated icos out there who are not playing around. I am participating in one at the moment and the name is Pikcars. It is a self-drop type of ico and is owned by a team with a working product that will rival uber. You can check them out here. https://pikcars.com/ (https://pikcars.com/)

to assess a project's successful ICO takes a lot of time and people will not be willing to give the project a good ICO. In this market, we should learn everything ourselves and not trust anyone. I think I know a pretty cool project that is WPP. My next tip is that you should learn it yourself. ;D

At opening this thread i was not awaiting much from this, but it actually sounds fun and possible something that could be very addictive.
This is exactly why i am not going to try it :D

Successful ICOS has a lot of factors, good marketing is one of the biggest factors, simple and understandable idea and much more. There is not one success formula.

I'm glad you like it!

I don't see much information about that site, this is the first time I read about that site if they are a successful ICO then should be on exchange already and there is not much information about that game, you are just trying to hype it.

this game is quite popular

Usually ICOs with products and utilities are quite successful, if I'm not mistaken Venq and EOS started like that and are platforms that use their tokens for different activities, so it is possible to have a successful ICO, of course, those were other times too, now if I were a developer I would think twice before investing in this volatile market.

To be honest, in 2018 there are very few projects that have become successful because there are currently no investors on the market who are ready to invest their money.

Yes, I completely agree with your opinion on this topic. Nowadays its very hard to predict about the projects success before making investment in it.

I can't remember last when I saw a successful ICO like as you mentioned in OP. Well, there is one named something like bob's repair or whatever. They are successful with their project and also doing well in the market. Another one is profish, although we can't say it's a good one because the product which is still under development and I doubt they can provide what they had promised.

but which side do you see the potential of ICO that is said to be successful. if seen from its success in returning investor capital, perhaps some ICOs have done it, but if the project they make is successfully used by the world community, maybe only a small part and I think I have to determine the average return to discuss ICO successfully or not

We have alot of successfull ICO with a working product, such as  Iconomi, Sigularity, Bancor,Neo,  This are some of the ICO I research with a working product and giving relevance to the cryptocurrency community, several ICO came up in 2018 without a solid foundation relative to the objective state, therefore most ICO will not survive the real world.

games on blockchain is just one of it.
other products, like exchanges are being more successful too

yeah. people don't want to invest in ICO

I also see only a few projects that can reach the target of the softcap, and very few maybe able to achieve hardcap sales. seeing a market that is not supportive and prices have continued to fall until now, it looks like this is the worst year for the ICO

As you probably already understood, many projects that hold successful fees still do not guarantee good opportunities in the future for you as an investor, so I think that here you need to look at the projects created.

I believe the problem is in the whole system went in a wrong direction

in fact the success of the ICO is not a guarantee of the success of the participants, because even though at the ICO it is very crowded, but when the listings are booked in they are not responsible, after their products are low

Pundi-x it seems to me, the only one who not only collected money, but in the end provided the finished product. For others, everything stops at the development stage.

no you are wrong. there are tons of games!

There are not really a lot of projects out there right now that people can vouch for and say that they can be sure that the coins are going to do well for the long term which is why when people are investing in icos and new coins they are always making sure that they are not investing more money than they can afford to lose in case the coins crash

Well I think there has been some notable successful ico this year but from my point of view the most noticeable is the counting house project this is one fantastic project this year

yeah indeed if the project that supports the game platform is indeed the possibility of success is very large compared to the others. but all of that still depends on the funds that they can collect in the specified period. so the success of the project really depends on the initial concept of their project, and the game is always the first choice.

Seeing from the views that I observed at ICO that were successful, I did not doubt that LYFE had achieved its sales. And now it's open to bounty participants.
LYFE is a fantastic ICO for this year after ICO PLAYGAME.

most ICOs are only good while they lasted.  i am not sure what had happened to the few that were recommended to me.

I guess another factor to be one of the successful ICO is to have a working product, particulary those that are pertaining to energy saving and efficient energy consumption projects that will surely help everyone.

the problem is to find the new coin that can do a big % of price grow...we must look for coins that are not ico or bounty but people are too stupid for this....I regret I did not get bought coins like litecoin,vertcoin or viacoin when they were very very low in 2015...there is a good dose of luck of course, but you must always do your own researches...for example watch Elicoin in livecoinwatch , is not an ICO or bounty... it's a coin with low mc, low supply, PoW whit cpu, no premine, active dev...only trading it on CREX24 for now...do you own researches in the thread in bitcointalk: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3028302.0... people are too stupid for DYOR and got scammed by ICO or bounty...just my 2 cents...hope it helps...cheers

One of the last strong projects I have identified for myself is AERGO, a strong team that has already received the support of large investors

Lyfe, is a project that will be successful in the market, they have a very good and experienced team, proven that the team has succeeded in several ICOs, you can immediately see the Lyfe project and go to some of the links in my signature

probably in such a market as now just a game platform will not be able to collect softcap, but if it is a gaming platform using VR it will be very cool

There's already a thread in here for projects with working products. These are around 25 teams who didn't scam investors and delivered on their promises.
Irony is that all of them are worth less now than during ICO. The bear really hit hard, even decent devs.
Most successful ICO in terms of price AND developments might end up being Ethereum itself  ;D

I believe THIS  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2451482.0)is the thread you are referring to.
It's actually incredibly inspiring to see that this many projects are actually operational, I expected a larger scam percentage.
For people about to post in this thread - make sure you check the list I've linked and if there's anything missing in it, notify OP from that other thread - we need a high-quality, maintained cumulative list.

Well i participated in a lot of ICO's that started to move on with their projects and visions.For example, Minexcoin had an ICO and bounty project 2 years ago and they wanted to develop a wallet to hold different Altcoins and they did it.Another example that i can give is Primalbase who built two workspaces one in Amsterdam and another one in London i think.They plan to expanse in Singapore and New York and their ICO was about a year ago.

Neither Minexcoin nor Primalbase are on the list linked above.
I'm not familiar with those projects, but since you are - could you kindly check the link in the post above you and recommend them to OP there?
I think it will be really good advertisement for crypto in general if we can manage to create a huge list of ICO-s that didn't scam and projects that are ICO-funded and are changing the world for the better.
One day when regulators start claiming that it's all scams we can just point them there.

If you looking for new projects which have low cap and strong team and good product look at this:
Tomochain - their founder is a founder of NEM.Mainnet was lanched few days ago.
PalNetwork - CEO in top 30 Forbs Asia. Mainnet will be launched in the end of this month. Have partnerships with NEM as well.

Despite the situation that occurs in the market there are quite a few successful ICOs who have achieved no small success!

The dawn of the popularity of ICO enthusiasts every now and then predicted how this format of raising funds for business projects will press IPO. In the pluses he recorded simplicity and lack of need for any regulators.
But very soon the number of cases of fraud during the uncontrolled launch of cryptocurrency and digital tokens began to grow rapidly, and today almost every ICO is suspected of intending to deceive investors. The market of the primary placement of "coins", in fact, faded away. ICO companies will be replaced by STO.

Though I have seen many Successful ICO Projects but only a few projects launched their products! I can mention Wemark, Counting House, Egretia, Bitdepositary ICOs name, which ICOs was successful and they already launched their product. You can find their ANN thread in the Announcement section!

you will get the good and successful ico in exchanges
