We have few new projects that have many reasons to shutdown and leave crypto world due to loss of funds,hack or failure to meet softcap/hardcap yet they manage to proceed and they are doing fine,this shows the sign of seriousness of the devs and teams .

And we have some projects that leave crypto world just because they have found reason to leave,putting the blames on softcap not met or hack,I know fund is still needed but if they've been working on the project for a long time it shouldn't be easy for them to just want to shut down because of a single failure.

Those who gives up easily won't end up with nothing because its just an escape,we investors are trying our best to make the right choice when investing for better profit and we've failed many times yet we never stop,I expect such spirit in devs and teams too.

thats why an expert always said to Do Your Own Research first before investing
because the risk on crypto investments is higher.if we comparing with the other investments opportunity such as stocks or other

That's right, The most of investors often fail because they mischoose project. But they never give up their job.

I think I think the reasons that the dev team gave are to hide that they are scam. We meet many projects that do not achieve softcap but they persist in working to give us the best product. They are worth honoring

Consistency is the key to success. when you keep knocking on a door repeatedly, the person inside will open up when he discovere you ain't gonna give up knocking.....

It's the same thing in crypto world.... I've seen projects whose token got dumped terribly on exchange because of certain reasons, but eventually after much effort they rises again.....

So the things, never give up....

I think most projects fail due to poor management, And other factors such as inability to gain the trust of the community, The failure of such projects at the beginning of their appearance is considered positive for every investor. Sometimes the insistence of some projects leads investors to the abyss, Projects can be withdrawn as long as they can not achieve economic adoption.

Investing is really different from saving money, there are some risk will come when you choose store money intended for investing. So, it is reasonable when your investment place doesn't give you a profit even your money just lost because that is the risk you will be face. You don't have to exact and blaming the developer when the project not successfully competing in the market.

I had a several times faced up the project that spent money didn't give a profit even I lost almost a half my capital. But I turn my brain when I intend to blame someone else either some people who suggested me for investing on it or the developer behind the project. I only think I have to avoid this thing again in the future and choose the reputable project so I can get the profit that I wanted.

yes of course you can't stop when you fail to invest, you have to make new experiences and lessons, I also feel failure like you, but I always rise from adversity at that time, applying new strategies to cover the losses that have occurred in the past . because runaway will not solve problems and failures that will make you even better to step the next day.

Yeah well, your forgetting that in crypto people like finding clever ways to scam...

Like creating a project and seeking money through ICO knowing outright they cant deliver any promises.
Or simply seeking out an exit strategy once fundraising has completed.

Good projects are far and few inbetween right now due to the greed and destructive nature of these scams.

The type of that person is that make me hating and afraid to trust on project.
the fact is that the safest way for them to escape , just said they got hacked then its clear , they don't need to working on project that they can finished.

I have some of the developers doing that but the common escape is they just stopped updating their supporters, they post or announce that they have something cooking or coming up in a few months but they did not until the investors forget about them and before they know it, the devs are gone.

I strongly support you in this, team members who give up because they didn't hit hardcap after token sale are not resilient. I've seen a few projects which didn't even hit softcap but listed their coins and are doing fairly well. But I don't blame some projects which stop because the government has authorized them to stop operations. Well, lack of funds can put an end to any project if it's severe.

Giving up is not an escape why ?
Because the urge to return back to crypto currency investment will showcase

The escape way is a proper research plan; that enables you to exit a trade before it dumps
With hardwork, you can have an escape plan

I can still see those dev teams who got some funds but didn't develop the project. They are replying the people in their telegram about what they are about to be doing like IEO but were not doing it after all the months passed. These guys are still up to scam investors, I think they have done this before so they've got away many times. I can name some but I guess we've see it all happen in the forum where right now thier ANN thread isn't updated anymore.

The efforts of such developers should be commended, a lot of other developers lie about not raising the minimum required just exit scam with the funds the were able to raise so far, some devs do make refunds to investors while most others do not.

What does this relate to this topic bro? I don't see any connection between your reply and this topic. Only the last part is connected.
Well sorry if i don't get it, it's really hard to understand your reply.

Depend on the reason, why did they stop the project?
Is it really because of the fund that has not been reached. Or is it just an action to make their investors believe that they're shutting it down because of the fund that has not been reached.
If they're scamming, then you know the result. The fund they gathered, won't be coming back to the owner.
But if they're not scamming, well maybe there's an agreement that will be made among them.

Funds are important to to run a project for the very long term in the development path because lot of people were working for it and they need to have salary for their work,if they don't have any money to run the development of the program that they will quit it.

But the reason of many projects were quit due to the fact that they are not ready to trust there Idea and work for it if they don't have enough soft have or hard cap funds.

It's not as easy as it seems. Some losses can be devastating just like I witnessed in 2018, but like you rightly said, we should never give up no matter what. I didn't give up and I have recovered all my losses and doing better off as it stands. Giving up never pays

You are right there are many examples where teams are surviving even with low or no funds, some of the projects are even self funded and no public funds were raised before product release, on the other hands i hate to see projects giving up and closing down for example, taas a great crypto fund in my opinion recently closed down because of bearish market of more than a year but i think that was worst decision and they should have given market 2 more quarters because we are already seeing recovery in the market from previous lows.

as a rule, a more or less normal project already has a strategy for each outcome of events. if it was built hardcap - then one plan of development (generally the marketing of such projects at the top), if you are not able to collect the hard cap, and gathered only the soft cap, then a different strategy and tactics.

I understand how you feel. I was thinking about giving up and was feeling really down. I don't want to give up. The problem is, as long as people support and do bounties for scams they will always exist.
One day I hope 90% of projects are legit because they get no support. It isn't too hard to find out. People need to ask more questions and dig deeper. Even a project you feel is legit you must question. Question everything.
No one likes to waste their time so people need to stop supporting bad projects or scams.


Blaming the hardcap is just an excuse and doesn't really make sense.

Project team members who abandon their project so quickly most times didn't have any good intention to follow the project's roadmap, they mainly enacted the project for the money and nothing else. Good team members usually stand firm even when things are not going fine with the project.

I use to be a zealous buyer of ICO until ICO repeatedly dealt with me without mercy. I had to advise myself to limit my ICO and I now only buy when they have successfully listed and seen that the team are doing well. I don't want anyone to hang my fund anymore by telling lies.

Not everybody has the same persistence and self-confidence. However, that difference between the ones who keep fighting for their project and the ones who abandon shows who are the ones that really believe in what they are doing and the ones that launch a project as if they were launching a stone to the water to see what happens. If you leave at the first obstacle, that means that you would have never succeeded.

I think this is a good call for devs and project teams. I hope good people who tried their best to push through with their project will succeed in the long run. Never give up for those who are here to really find something worth-it to fight for.

But we should be wise also on choosing projects so that scam projects that intended to deceive us in anyway they can will be eliminated. Prove them that we are not just here because we always wanted a big profit instead we are here to support a good project.

it seems that this can be one of the assessments of new projects, they should not go away and give up the projects that have been built just because of problems with funds or sales that do not reach hard cap or soft cap though. at least they value investors who believe and continue to develop it with minimal funds is not a problem because many projects succeed because the community is strong even though the project does not have a lot of funds. and indeed this can take a long time but this is natural because there are no instant projects

This is just my opinion but dev who choose to go back if they get better funds because maybe they feel that if they keep their projects straightened with less funding the possibility of their project will fail and because of that they choose to retreat and I think they think of an investment because will be bad to investors.

We can not expect the not giving up spirit from all as everyone has different different perceptions in their mind. I would say one should have burning desire to achieve the success whether he/she failed several times he/she should keep trying until and unless get success this is called true spirit to overcome giving up.

One day, they will pay. They leave with money without any reasonable reason.
Now we have many companies that specialize in tracking blockchain transactions. Crypto investors soon realize that the best move is to bring an action against team to see money again.

FOr me exiting out at this moment is not a good thing to do.
it is not also an escape bt impatient and cowardness.
we are all aware of down and bullish, why cant we wait then?

People enters into the crypto market for different reasons so their dedication towards project developed by them also difference with the reason why they were entered into the crypto. If they are here only for making money then they will use this as an escape from the market and take all the the funds of the investor because they meet their needs so there are not going to worry about their investors.
But if they are here for doing something revolutionary then they will work hard to make their project to be completely developed with their funds they had raised previously.

Just forget about your mistakes, but without failures it is impossible to reach your goals. Try to avoid them in the future and if you are able to learn from those mistakes, you can become very successful, especially in crypto industry.

Mistakes are good teacher for us learning how to manage it become big goals, like you said.
But still not easy for avoid them, cryptocurrency not like other one can getting fast reboud when you falling on dip. Crypto need person who have good  psycologies and keep calm when broken happen.

we cant escape failure in our daily lives and those who always play it safe will never achieve anything because to accomplish anything we have to fail several times,its normal to fail before success

Most people who have experienced failures in investment or trade always give up so easily, but that's normal. because anyone will not be able to accept the fact at the beginning. but you are right that giving up on the run is not the right decision, giving up and getting back up is the right one.

It is better they leave than to stay in the market and keep gathering the fund, because it is at that point that they have gathered enough they start thinking of how to scam and run away with the money, at least they are still better than those that would stay, gather the money and then when they enter the exchange market, they dump the coin and then still give an excuse of either investors dumping or bounty hunters dumping, meanwhile it is not true, they are the ones that dumped just to exit the market, thereby using the excuse I mentioned above.

It is better that we eliminate lazy and people who are not pushy from the market at this early stage, so encouraging them now is just like inviting more dead projects to be giving birth to.

Yeah, giving up when you failed once was a bad move but if you lose over and over again despite of trying very hard then it's understandable coming to the point thinking of finally giving up. It's okay to give up sometimes, for me it's not always a sign of being weak or lazy but could be also a sign being brave and wise. Brave in a sense that you have the guts to accept the hurtful truth that this field is not for you and wise in a sense that you become open on finding a better path to walk through instead. Fighting your nightmares is not always the right option because you can also choose to wake up and try making a beautiful dream again.

I have seen series of projects like that. Those that gave up on softcap failure and those that continue despite the same reason. That tell you about how the team believes in their own projects and themselves. I believe no one will give up on what he believes will be a success for whatever reason.

The best thing one can hope for is to be able to promote good projects and invest in it and not come the way of those who would leave the crypto space for no just cause.

It will happen soon, and we still have the participants in the cryptocurrency because they still want to support cryptocurrency and of course, they want to make money again. People who are giving up and leave cryptocurrency will be regret in the future because they leave without the want to survive like the other people. We will see the cryptocurrency will reach new people again like before, so we have more participants to stay in the cryptocurrency. There will be a time for cryptocurrency to rises again.

We have few good projects that failed to raise required funds to continue the project development in ICO or IEO but they never quit,they continue with their work,this shows that they have something to offer either with fund or not they still wont give up,but many projects are just here to raise money and abandon the project later on

Those who you see that usually give up and goalless people from the onset and they never believe in themselves, I don’t see reason why anyone with goal setting would ever give up when it does not take anything away from them. If it is whitepaper, they already pay for a onetime fee to get it develop, and if it is for the bitcoin forum, they are not being charged for doing so, so why they give up is what baffles me.

Look at bitcoin of STO, while we have had several project meet their hardcap, they are still yet to meet up and very slow in growth which could be discouraging, but yet they keep pushing, and this are signs of a project that is really in their to establish something that would be useful to the world. For us to really spot these weak people out before participating on anything that has to do with them, we need to further do our research first.

It is because many projects failed to deliver the promises to their investors, so the investors no longer want to investing on crypto projects,
and resulting many projects failed to raise enough funds on the sale of their token.
About the softcap, it is required to run the project with the softcap funds because the project will be hard to run without enough funds.
