Venture capital invests in the real sector of the economy at the crypto-currency market.
The total investment from venture investors in ICO is already about $ 4 billion. Compared with the capitalization of the crypto-currency market, this is not much, but something else is interesting: for the first half of 2018, the amount of money invested in ICO is equal to the amount invested in past years combined. And this is in biggest ever drop in the value of the crypto currencies.
A significant part of the money of venture investors is invested in the ICO from the real sector of the economy. Crowdfunding and IPO are so regulated and expensive for start-ups, that by the time of their launch, most of the profits are spent on legal expenses, launching and promoting the company.
ICO is in the initial stage of formation and while it is sufficiently loyal and not expensive, therefore, to venture investors and enterprises from the real economy sector, the crypto platform has become a more comfortable place for concluding investment deals. Unlike virtual crypto projects, the real economy segment is understandable and predictable - here are the same rules as for IPO formation, but preparing the necessary documentation is much cheaper for the company's shares to enter crypto exchange, then stock exchange.
Your opinion?

I just invested on LEDU COIN and Im hoping that I will earn also in the coming days although I know that its not that easy to win in this game. The price is stiill volatile!

I think it's might be a good plan to watch Venture capital investors and follow them sometimes. They will know about an ICO project early, usually.

ICO rate and other crypto currencies rate is defined by the supply and demand only. I see recent you can see the too much price fluctuations in every coin so be careful invest on the good project bro. I advice you to invest on the cheap altcoins which has potential than this ICO projects.
Recent days I see many ICO projects are not get listed in the exchange once its bounty program and crowdsale ends mate. So be careful on that mate.

At present, ICO looks more like hype, because most people only want to achieve short-term profits through ICO.
So this is an unhealthy model, and I think ICO needs to be regulated.

Venture investment in the cryptocurrency market is good. The more investors in the market, the more stable the price of cryptocurrency will be. There will be no sharp falls and rising prices.

I believe that the future of cryptocurrency is fine

This is thus far the perfect opportunity to invest, the market is down and I'm sure ICO won't be expensive like before. Go for Cargo, EdenChain, RedCab and Liven, there are other projects too that can do well but each one of the ICOs that I mentioned have a decent future. Take a look at these.

I have exactly the same opinion. They are professionals who, before entering the crypto world, has calculated all the pros and cons. Now, on the falling alcoins market, they are pouring in billions - that means a lot!

Regulation should be, but not by state structures but by international crypto community. Any regulation by state is a game in one gate. For example, IPO - in order to get in - you need to go through an infinite number of audits, prepare a huge number of documents, pay a lot of money, spend at least a year for it. And, what is most annoying - most of these movements are not needed by anyone.

Crypto services company AlphaPoint announced it raised $15 million in its first major round of venture capital funding from Galaxy Digital.

In fact, this is the same thing. The only thing you need to know is that all investments are only at your own risk! And remember to invest only the amount that you can lose

Agree

ICO is a risky thing, a lot of people don't know the risk, however, many people choose loan investment ICO, so obviously it is wrong, because the greater the risk, the greater the income.

 ROIs in ICO early investments is as high as 50,000%.

TOP LIST :

Komodo
ROI: $100 in their ICO = $14,151 today
Ark
ROI: $100 in their ICO = $36,600 today
Spectrecoin
Return: $100 in their ICO = $50,834 today

Makes sence to take risk with this ROI, even if  losing money investing in 100 ICO`s.

ICO market is quickly filled with money from venture funds. At the moment it´s already 50% of all investments made in ICO.

Hey dude Venture investors are into ICO it gets stronger than ever a part of that ICO are the most effective way to get profit no wonder why other IPO's company are joining the crypto craze. With it's media adoption on the internet i'm really sure those IPO's company will create a token on the top of the blockchain.

Well, today if you say investing in ICOs is extremely risky and risky, you will probably suffer heavy losses because I find the price of the ico when traded will never be high. the most feared investors today.

i'm looking forward to invest in Kelvin Blockchain, that's cool platform with huge potential :)

This is really good to know this but based on hype and profit you should not invest your money because there are lots of scams and in short run investment there is also some issues of loss but in case of long run there is less chances of this also ICO rate is related with supply and demand.

If you look at the statistics, the situation is different. One the falling of altkoins markets, investments in ICO dubbled in comparing to the previous year. And this is not only internal resources, but also the fiat money, from venture investors. Everyone understands that now is the unprecedented moment of entering the ICO market. Altcoins are cheap and have a huge potencial. The main thing is to choose the right ICOs and make diversification. Even if 10% of the selected ICOs start to work, this is thousands of percent of the profit.

This short term investment is good but you have think where is short run goal there is fear of loss also this investment may bring you profit in short term but if you think about long run there is more profit but this ICO is not looking healthy to me so I wish it will be fine.

I think having a partnership between the two is really great opportunity that should be consider by all of us since many people will be able to help their lives in this kind of opportunity in their life.

Yes, because investing in ICo makes a lot of profit, so they always choose to invest in ico even if they are very risky, but if you have experience ICO selection, we can still earn income. pretty good from them.

In 2017, 46 percent of token startups failed after their ICOs  So far this year, only 50 of 340 completed ICOs have failed.  This shows that the quality of ICO projects is getting higher and the scam projects has less and less chances.

Thats actually really nice analysis and differences about the IPO and ICO itself. Its true that ICO are offering all the big advantages to the new start ups and I believe that is why the founder of ETH platform is mots successful today. To create simple smart contracts with ease and to be open source on GitHub so that people can see whats coming next is the idea behind the success of ICO's.
Unlike IPO which are very complicated and also costly investment, ICO's are now getting more preferences. I think it will be bigger success in the time to come.

The market is constantly looking for an alternative to the over-regulated and very expensive IPO market. Crowdfunding started the same way as today the ICO starts and the discussions were the same. As a result, Crowdfunding found its niche and approached IPO at the cost of entry.

This is Fondo Network ICO. The first SE-ICO in the world.

The SEICO (Secured and Ensured ICO — ICO 3.0) is ICO’s most revolutionary breakthrough, ensuring the benefits to investors in the face of dramatic market changes. SEICO is an ICO that combines two forms of Secured ICO and Ensured ICO. While Secured ICO mitigates investment risk, Ensured ICO increases its margins further.

You'll probably see a lot more of that, as ICOs get more regulated and labeled a ''security'' your mom won't be able to buy these tokens/coins anymore and is strictly for VCs. Probably see more aidrops because of that aswell combined with equity deals from VCs.

What ICO's you know from real economy sector? Exclude traveling? All that I see were a pour copy of kickstarter startup and nothing more. I don't see any such good projects. Today only digital and virtual goods in the market

There are not much of them, but few are really good:

Ambrosus is a platform that monitors the quality of manufactured food and medicines, which raised more than $ 30 million.
The Bee is a real estate rental platform based on smart contracts, which raised $ 10 million.
ZrCoin is a plant for the production of zirconium dioxide, which earned a profit of about 7 million US dollars.
PrimalBase - a company for the construction and leasing of office space, attracted $ 8 million.
Roayl Mint Gold (RMG) - the project of the Royal Mint of Great Britain to produce tokens, secured with gold - has not yet been launched, but has already caused a huge resonance in the crypto-currency world.

It is an expected step, as venture capitalists are always looking for new ways to invest. Crypto community also benefits from it, because the higher the market capitalization is, the more stable and reliable it is.

100% Correct!

I personally think that the root cause of ICO project investment risk is that some ICO projects are originally a scam, so investing in ICO projects is a very risky thing. I hope that the cryptocurrency market can set up a regulatory body, strengthen supervision, and let investment ICO projects have Healthy development
