Bitcoin Forum

When ever a new company/startup looking to raise/start its business, they do consider one of many ways to find investors Through top-tier business schools, industry friends, Angel investor networks, Crowd funding and by city's entrepreneurial community. All that by Proving they are market ready.
I am myself trying to do the same, failing multiple times at finding investors and funding my business. (I have not reached the phase of giving up yet)
I want just to get some advice on bitcoin investors. do they exist? how can I find them? can they invest in real world project not just invest in online projects. Can bitcoin be one of the ways that a company/startup can seek to raise up? having patience as an enemy, making hasty decisions, having hope, and sometimes lack of knowledge is it a good idea to seek the bitcoin way.
And I quot "The biggest risk is not taking any risk... In a world that changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks." Mark Zuckerberg
Is using bitcoin investment worth the risk? more people will go with the normal and stable flow because bitcoin is too risky. Personally i think it is worth the risk, but how can a person grantee and secure his startup, bitcoin investment knowing that many countries do not accept bitcoin as a legitimate money and therefore no business contract can be made.

Ps: I apologies for my English.

Yes, they do exist. There are lots of investors here in this forum.


Yes, they can also invest in a real-world project it just depends on what type of investment or project that is?

What I see here is that the reason you failed in your project is that, the investor doesn't find any profit to your projects. If your project can be profitable then you will not be having a hard time finding investors.

Finding investors for a project no matter real world project or online project is not easy task to do. You need to offer something good but reasonable for possible investors, you also need to have clear information about the project such as your team identity, your plan/roadmap of the project, etc. Too many aspect to be mentioned but you can learn from successful investment. Learn what they offer, what they do, and how they manage the offers.

yes that was the cause of failing in my first project, i got past that and got an investor via an event a hackathon. but that didn't go as well, that's when i learned that the team you work with is an essential component as well. I moved on. but the last project I am working on is a local business in my home city, not much investors around to convince, nor much events to help me out in this matter. having trouble finding investors than them not willing to invest. when it comes to profit it is really not that profitable at first. only self sustained but made to grow in future.

true, but how does it work using bitcoin. how does contracting work? is it safe? can you be conned? is it better to use bitcoin investors or does it depends on the business as well?

Bitcoin investors do exist; however, the attitude should not be that different from "fiat investors" if we talk about real corporations. For example, Roger Ver --I know that he brings so much negativity and his behavior is so unethical after BCH, but I need to mention him for the sake of this argument-- is one of the first people who built businesses from bitcoin and invested in many bitcoin-based businesses.

It would be best if you have a good business plan, MVP, and a legal entity from the beginning. If you do not have that, consider using the bootstrap method. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/bootstrap.asp
I do not recommend using crowdfunding or ICO since you might have a legal problem in the future.

If all go as planned, you can be more comfortable to attract investors in some blockchain event.

Some projects are collecting money from ICOs [selling some tokens] "I do not recommend it."
You can rely on donations as an initial stage and when the project is successful you will find a lot of attention and support. "Your idea must make a real transition."

Start with self-financing and design the whitepaper and then exploit this forum and some sites for publicity and get investors "the best way but require patience." If the project is as small as "BitcoinTalk Public Information Project (BPIP)," you can find some here ---> Project Development (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=12.0).

Well, it is a matter of decision. There are investors and even a lot do use and trust cryptocurrency, particularly bitcoin and I believe that these people did not just make decision overnight. I believe that they sat down ponder about the risk and their possible loses and still did decide to. In the first place you are not going to put all your eggs in a basket when you know that your basket has a visible hole where your eggs can surely slip down and you don't just put them all in that one basket with out securing the rest in a more durable and secure basket. You must put up some security for your investment. If you think that investing them all in cryptocurrency will be too dangerous then divide your capital and put some into a more sure and secure one.

Based on the project concept.

There are projects that want to apply the idea of using crypto even I found it not suitable or let's say doesn't make sense (according to my view). It's not easy to attract investors on a project that can be consider as "cross bordering" between real world and crypto or I don't know if this the right term to this.

If you are really eager to attract more investors or some sponsors for funding, think outside the box what will be the good reason why should someone will put money on your project. No way they will just throw money on a something that will not have a promising return (remember, "investors").

I can't really tell you what's are the exact things to be done because you know your project more than us. Goodluck having a brainstorming on what things you should do. Patience mate.

To find investors can be hard or easy, all depends for what you need investors and what is the plan to do with money invested, and how much you give back to investors and in what time. Always smart investors will know if is good to invest on a bussines or no.

There are actually a lot of investors here, some are even real-world investors. It can also be possible for a company to accept bitcoin as an investment, of course it is in their own discretion. It depends upon you on how will you lay down your business plan to gather investors if you are aiming to gather investors here in the forum. This might be a difficult task since most people here would like to remain anonymous which will be risky for you and as well for them.

investors are looking at something more attractive than whitepapers, Old crypto investors have so much learnt so much out of the loss they made from several scams in the past, so are more difficult to convince. Partnership with existing and thriving institute will definitely attract investor. Imagine an ICO with Microsoft partnership, especially when it has a relevant use case with the institute.

This had been always the problem on most project owners nowadays.They do struggle on finding sufficient funding to make their projects fulfilled/created.
Investors on this forum do exist its just really a matter on how you would introduce your project idea, making it realistic and convincing that it would really make some money
into its investors.It do always talk about potential, if not then you will most likely end up on the same fate of most garbage projects today.

Well in every project the place of knowledge can not be overlooks as that is the engine room for the operation of the business so I will say that adopting bitcoin in you business does not perform the miracle of forcing in investors if the investors are not convince on the potential of the business, I will advice you grow your business first then investors will come on they own.

In finding investors, if your target are institutional investors then attending seminars, Meetup or convention will be a great start. Occasionally these investors organized interview too, I know of a firm in South Africa that organized interview for projects developing a product through blockchain technology and are looking for fund(investors) 5-10 companies compete and the winners (most interesting and promising) project gets the fund. You just have to do some search, such opportunities can be found in your geographical location too.

Will be hard looking for investment if always have bad and not good owner of ICO, almost ICO project have lower price after listing in exchange market and make investor are really afraid for investing their money in ICO project investment.

Our forum itself has got a good number of investors. Rather than going for finding investors it is good to come up with the project and it's working infrastructure in the first phase. Here the spending need to be done on ones own funding or from the team. When continuous updates were provided through the announcement thread automatically you'll get fund if investors find it good. Without any data or even a small framework on the same requesting to invest isn't fair way.

Now it has become more difficult to find investors, because the number of projects is more than investors and there is a lot of competition between them. But among the forum members there are a lot of people who have an offline business and they can probably invest in the same your offline busines. I think that you need to correctly present your project to the public so that it will be easier for investors to find you and study your project.

I would like Op to understand that getting people to believe in you is like getting them to buy your product which is purely marketing.

Thus, what is your marketing or media strategy. Before marketing comes also, you must have a good product so that when people finally get convinced, the product you have won't be a failure.

If your product is online, maybe you can put a link out maybe you can get better advise.

To find an investor is about how we can make them believe with what we did. We need to explain the project we do with our teams to the investor, explain to the investor what benefits they can get if they invest in your project. It's not easy as the investor needs to see your project running well so soon, they will believe with the project itself. Once they believe, they will ask their friends to invest in your project.
Make one person believe it is difficult than to make thousand people believe with your projects and don't give up if you believe that your project is worth for them.

ICOs are still a viable way to raise capital for crypto projects.  Teams are still pulling in millions of dollars for their startups.  The biggest thing is advertising, you need to attack all platforms with an aggressive marketing budget if you want to see real results.

I guess whole "ICO" field is literally exactly what you are looking for with the difference that the token you create is basically the shares and they want to see it increase the more your company gets bigger.

For example first ever "ICO" mentality was ripple when they created their coin with the emphasis that they own all coins and they will work with banks and financial companies to get them use their blockchain which would make them buy and send and than sell coins using their blockchain making xrp worth more in the process and also help banks.

Of course, the centralized version wasn't loved by many and its not loved for that reason anymore but than many many many ICO's happened afterwards. If you want to get funding and you believe your project is good enough you can create a token that is basically your whole company and sell some that you feel like you need and see if market likes it enough to fund it.

Not a guaranteed thing for you to succeed but it would really be a casual way for you to spend out some budget if you do like for your marketing to be effective but i would
say that ICO type is already non effective.Try to look at on current projects that do launch ICO's they do mostly failing due to trust and confidence issues.

I don't understand it well but it is true, blockchain do attract investors. 

I would love to try that but my business is not based on any coin. but I'll consider using a coin as a payment/reward system.

That will be tricky ratter say kinda impossible, I need a push to start.
My business will need a big space, and real pricey furniture. growing it by myself is not an option (start big or don't start at all).
 

That is something i am considering, just that I have no legal document nor anything to protect my project, if i go public with it, i am afraid that i might lose it to someone else who has no financial problems.

Yeah I have no issues sharing my project, since it in not a new idea it does not exist in my city. it is not a product, it is a service.

Knowing that, is bitcoin investors still an option?

Do you have any good articles addressing this matter? I would like to read more about it.

Not hard looking for investor in ICO project if you your ICO is trusted and always on time for distributing and listing at exchange market, you can created more than one ICO if your project is trusted and many investor will interested with your ICO.

As much as I know there is huge number of investors who use to invest for long term and make investments, people are now searching for the best crypto currency but they don’t know it is the best place to find good investments coin, we only need to post article related to it on our YouTube and some other channels which can give us safe investors who are not scammers as it needs to be careful about sending and receiving crypto currency.

Test the waters then.

Different people have different preferences.

Who knows there will be interested even on a ratio of 1:10.

Market has achieved so many potential now and there are so many investors, but still the market needs our support and our promotion, If more investors will take part in vibrato currency it is our own benefit because it makes market stronger and it gets value that will make the price higher for us in future so let’s work hard and make crypto currency popular as much as we can.

Will come under only work the way of promoting your currencies to get attracted the people and then be some trust will need to came about that investment from the investor side then only that possible we are getting more attraction for a currency will be available.

You wont really gain anything if you dont try so as said it would really needing some steps for test.
Even on a small ration it would be still considerable rather not on trying at all. Finding investors is really not simple
yet convincing them on the first place would be the biggest challenge.

is the value of the currency will rise of the investors will always came to invest every time but in the beginning state there will be a difficulties available for everyone but at the end if it was trustable everyone get interested and invested.

It is really hard to find a right investors for your business especially bitcoin investors. But let me tell you my experience before. Someone  send me a personal message on social media encouraging me to become bitcoin investor which makes me think that we are capable of finding investors by inviting some people in social media.
You have to think of unique and different approach to find investors.

Bitcoin investors do exists and I don't think it's difficult to find them, I believe this is why we conduct fundraising making use of IEO, ICO and STO, if you have a very good project that will bring value to the crypto community, or you know how to create an hype making use of social media, then you would be able to get a lot of investors who would be very interested in your project and invest a lot of money with the hopes of getting even much more in the future when the platform has been built and the coin listed on exchange.

I think making hype is not the right solution to find investors, it will only complicate things after ICO was attacked by a scammer last year. I am sure if indeed the project created is real and not only deceiving investors, surely without a lot of promotion, investors will judge for themselves if it is very good indeed.

We need to make sure to know the difference between investing into a startup and investing into a coin. You may think all ICO's are actually just coins that are coming up and people invest into the coin but that means you do not remember the 2017 ICO peak times.

I have literally seen companies having their own ICO just to get more funding and the people who owned those coins would get shareholder dividends from the profits like regular stock market or even just have the stocks of that company without getting dividends and they just used those funding from investors to get the company bigger.

Now, that has nothing to do with crypto innovation, they are just circumventing the stock market world and creating coins for their shares so people would own 100 coins of that company instead of 100 stocks of that company. Those people actually made a lot more money because people are more inclined to invest into a company that is already working and asking for funds to get bigger instead of ICO's that basically says "we wanna create a new coin" and that's it.

From what I read, you can attract crypto investors, by creating an ICO and describing your project, here you have to make a token with the name of your project. I advise you to learn about the ICO project, because many of them are attracting crypto investors to make real projects such as making mining rigs, shipping goods etc, what you really need to know is how your project can attract investors, which at the moment ICOs have fewer interested people than last year.

You are totally right about this, most projects that is a product of hype end up just being a shitcoins when the hype eventually dies down, it is better that the project allows its working product to speak for it, and even if they have to create a little hype about it, the product will continue to sustain the rest.

Let  us take a look at Binance now, Binance didn’t just create there hype without making sure that they have a very solid project, and the moment people started accepting the product and seeing how good it is to their business, they started growing tremendously even without the hype. It is not as if the hype is no longer there, but the hype they have now is a natural one, and this may never die anytime soon because they have gotten enough users’ on their platform.

If you have some of that friends and links with bisuness indrustries and yet you don't have a fine product it will be totally useless. In blockchain there are competitors that you may haven't still met in the world you used to, so it is new and will definitely be a big struggle and hardship. So you better be ready for those too, not just to be dependent by power that is imbued to you by other people/

Competition is always there and as a business owner it wont really be an easy path if you do seek up for some sort of investors.

You should be at least extraordinary compared to other ones where investors might consider on putting up funds on you.If they do
able to see something that sparks up their interest then its your luck but if you cant offer something unique or special then expect on what would be the next thing to happen.

Finding an investor these days have got increased channels for the same. However those paid services will be providing the details regarding the project to the investors. The project is the one that gets you the investment. To get a perfect investor it is good to have your project something unique and a high valuation compared to the other products that are in the market. If you're coming up with an alternate solution for some services you need to have a clear indication of how it benefits better than the one already in usage. Having your Ann Thread with all details gets you investor if you had made a best thing for the crypto ecosystem.

looking for investors to invest in a project is not an easy thing because now many investors are deceived and lose a lot of money from a project. if you have clear details and information from the project that you created or manage, it is very easy to attract investors. it depends if everything goes smoothly and investors will safely invest.

I think finding investors is more about the team and the projects idea and what it solves more than anything else. If you achieve these 3 things then you can find investors by the bunch and make a ton of money. First of all you have to have a team, even if they are not known then you need to at least be competent and just purely focus on what you need to do and actually do it, if you are lazy or quit half way into the project then it won't work, you have to show people no matter what you will finish this project one way or another.

The second is the project, if it is a valuable one and actually different from other projects then it can have a worth, if it is just another one of the similar coins then it won't work. Third and probably the most important is which problem it solves, if there is a problem and that coin solves it then it can have a worth but if it is just like another one of the exchanges then I am sorry it won't be big at all.

That is right, before looking for investor first, the foundation must first be set right, and the foundation is to look for a high quality project idea to sell to the investors, followed by having team members that are qualified. Investors need to know and understand who they are dealing with, and if they will be able to make the project successful after they raise fund for it.

There are so many other ways that investors are still investing outside the umbrella of ICO, investors still make investment on IPO projects, STO projects and this newly created IEO platform, so investors will always be available, but like you said, it is now left for the project owner to do everything in his capacity to present projects that will not scare the investor away.

Before you get an investor to be interested in your project, it has to be something that is going to benefit them, cause if they don’t see any way that the project is going to benefit them, then they are not going to take any interest in it. And sometimes it might be that you have been meeting the wrong people who don’t have interest or understands the kind of business you’re into. If the business couldn’t get investors, what makes you think that opting for cryptocurrency will help you get investors? If you can’t convince those you meet face-to-face, then there is no way you’re convincing those you meet online. Not possible

all of investation is risky, its depend on you as player. bitcoin is risky than other investation. many people loss their fund because they got wrong decision.
investor is exist, some bounty hunter is investor. not only be part of bounty, but also support some project. its good to raise income. and they can invest in real project as long as you can attract their attention.

 There are a lot of investors on the bitcointalk forum and out there there are many. The important thing is how you attract investors. Here, investors always like short-term profits, you can't attract big investors when you only promise to bring them profit after a few years.
If you really want to develop a real business and need genuine investors, go to raise capital in investment companies. they are ready to help you while developing. eg Shark Tank. ;)

not all bounty hunters sell simultaneously at the beginning of the listing on the exchange. many people still hold the coins to make investments if the project has the potential. so it's true, indirectly they are also investors

First of all you should understand the volatility of Bitcoins.
If you ignore it then of course your business investment which is in terms of Bitcoins will see a major downfall.
It is very essential to start with something that is stable , maybe you can do both :- people who wants to invest in BTC or people who wants to invest in USD.
Don't be misguided I love Bitcoins but it is just not made for a business that is not revolving around cryptocurrencies and at the same time isn't stable the least.
If there is risk involved people will of course go away , make the risk factor lower then go for the campaign.
Accept even 10-100$ , don't keep a downline .

There are many bitcoin investors in this forum and they do usually invest in online projects. You just have to find a way to catch their attention. Giving a thorough detail of your business is a must, it should be concise and beneficial to the public. Attracting investors is tricky because it all depends on the convept of your business and how you will promote and introduce it to the public. Bitcoin investors often invest in businesses that have a huge potential which in turn can give them huge gains.

It can totally happen, but the current investment model works against this and things like local stock markets trends, slow adoption models and generalized fear of market disruption contributes to the grind on venture capital/angel investment scenarios.

Having a decentralized platform that's blockchain based, allows for crowdfunding, and its connected to a complete trading and banking ecosystem could certainly facilitate real world startups raising capital from all kinds of investors.

I think it is because of these problems that investors in cryptocurrencies are not so much.Today I read the news that India has already published a law prohibiting the use of bitcoin.I am sure that by this law the entire crypto community has lost a lot of investors.For business integration and interaction,entrepreneurs need guarantees!One smart contract is not enough.Everyone who invests in cryptocurrency is essentially a risk.But I have not seen anywhere such a rapid growth and profit that cryptocurrencies have provided for their investors.

Since you have known bitcoin, how has bitcoin investment become risky, risk that people invested at dip and then get profit at a very high price? People that have lost to bitcoin do not want to admit that the mistake was from them, one, some are greedy and did not take profit on time, some did not study the market very well before they buy the investment and then end up buying at ATH, AND some are full of fear that they panic sell their coin when bitcoin is dropping in value because they also lack the proper understanding that there will always be a rise for every decrease.

If we keep judging bitcoin because of the last investment that people made during the ATH, is bitcoin not going back to the value now? And if they were patience and not panic sell, would they not be having their investment back now, I think it is people that lacks the understanding to manage the little risk in bitcoin and not bitcoin that is completely risky.

Most of the investor has had enough time and chance to study the market and they have seen that the current volatility of the market does not really make some of these projects really suitable for a long term investment, most of the projects of 2017 that many of them held for long term is still disappointing them till now, as some of them has turn shitcoins while majority of them has just refused to enter exchange

 so that has not really encouraged them again to see reason to stay with any project for too long except project like Binance that really has use case, they are still the ones that has been able to devise lots of strategies to really hold their investors in the market and many of them are really impressed and willing to stay with them.

Strange question of someone that is registered on this forum from 2014. Just start reading the forum and you will find answers yourself.

The starting move about finding people that would invest in your project is awareness and more awareness. Just get your project to the public let them know what the project is all about that why this big companies pays serious money on advert because is the fastest way to get people to invest in your project or buy your product.
Also how needful is the project no investor would invest in a project they don't feel would gain public interest.
 Work on your project well get your idea in shape and with adequate awareness you should get investors

There are many reasons why it's very difficult to get individuals willing to invest in projects other than the bitcoin and one is it's unproductivity and it's possibility of being a scam project.

If you're to get people to invest in your project, you'll have to do a lot to convince them of its use, if it's use case would stand out and also of its legitimacy.
There have been so many exit scams, investors are just being careful.

That is right, but do you know the work that Binance put to it before investors could trust the IEO system, thanks to Binance, that is why we still have investors trusting IEO because Binance had already built a very good name amidst all these ICO scam. To get investors really require so much work and trust, you have to first of all show yourself approved first and do everything possible that you can do to convince lots them about you and your project.

Many people still finds it difficult achieving this no matter how hard they try, which is why they all run to IEO platform to now promote their projects. I know of a project recently that tried everything possible to earn the trust of investors through ICO but could not achieve the result, they had to dump the ICO idea for IEO and that is the only way they were able to meet up.

This is the absolute truth, not that we don’t have investors, we have so many investors that are willing to make investment in projects that would promise them a wonderful future, and sometimes when I see the number of people that do rush Binance IEO project when it is being released, I wonder if it is this same market where everyone has almost discourage investors about investing because of scam.

Which means investors are always there and willing to make investment, but like you said, the only thing that has been holding them back is that fear of being scammed, and this is the reason why so many very good project with great team and concept are also suffering it in ICO, because many investors are now running to IEO, and you know it cost a lot to go on IEO, and these ICO project end up not being successful with their ICO campaign.

I also agree that the main reason for attracting investors is the ideal concept of your project. If this is an innovative and interesting idea that will help people or solve their problems, investors will be definitely found.

It seems to me that crowdfunding is often for merchandise or software for distribution. If the business you are trying to build is crypto-related, then you'd have a smaller pool of potential investors. If I may ask, what is this business you are trying to build?

I suggest you make thread about the project and maybe set-up a website as well to attract people outside of this forum. You'd still need some initial investment of your own for that, so you might have to dip into your savings or take out a loan. Or maybe accept donations or earn money from some other project that you can then put into the crypto one.

Finding investor is easy when getting ICO success with listing without delay on exchange market and have higher price than ICO, many investor will participated on every ICO, when find many ICO scam with delay for distributing coin for investor and always have lower price than ICO we faced hard moment and bounty hunter look difficult for promoting ICO and get investor.

In order to attract large investors, you must have a potential project and create trust in them. finding investors is not difficult, Shark Tank, financial investment funds and mutual funds, ...
  There are many sources of funding to support you, it is important that you consider whether your project is attractive enough for investors or not?
or you may not need to raise funds via bitcoin, you can meet businesses directly to convince them. I think that would make it easier to succeed.

When there is a new project, they always make their project appealing to other people, especially to the potential investors. They try to join into different networking event in order to spread their idea and attract investors. You should do the same, if you are planning to find some investors, make sure that your project is a solution for a certain problem so you will not have any problem in terms of selling your idea to other people.

In every investment note that there is no guaranteed amount you'll earn or if its secure same with other investment types like forex or exchanges as scammers, volatile and news may affect it's prices. In terms of security BTC been proven to be secured as long as you know how to handle your account and wallets. It's a matter of risking what we studied to know if its worthy in the future.

I know that forex is not an investment place but I see it as a place of gambling because when you take the wrong position it will lose all the assets you have immediately, whereas in the cryptocurrency exchange place is very different, when cryptocurrency takes a wrong buy position and is stuck at expensive prices then you can still save for the long term and can wait for a price recovery that can restore the value of your assets.

Investors are the heart of business. That's why every project always find investors to support  them. They need a good and effective marketing strategy to win the heart of every investors.

You will find investors if you have a good project worth for them to invest, these investors need to see proof of profit after your project is launched. If you still didn't get investors after having a good project and offers assurance of profit, you kiss the asses of the crypto influencers in the sphere. Market a hype will get the word out not just sucking the dick of John Mcaffee which could actually work as well.

Investors are everywhere, we just need to provide real project that will make them interested to invest at, for now we can say that investors are tired looking for new project that will make them rich, they are tired for those scams that's lurking all over the crypto world, but if we have proven first that your project is worth investing at, then for sure investors will follow you.

I don't think they are necessarily tired of scams, but more so tired of the bear market within crypto.... almost every crypto chart has been trending down for nearly two years now, and that's something they don't want to get into.

Bitcoin's parabolic rise to $14k this year hasn't changed anything in the grand scheme of things because it technically is just a lower high. What will the next lower high be? $10k? $8k? It's not looking very promising anymore.

This is what I see as wrong with investors nowadays, most of these so called investors are newbies that are just hooked up because of the booming market with the last years surge are just too greedy with the market, they think it is easy to get rich and gain profit with this industry. I pity them.  But I think scams already taught them a lesson, not a trend is always to get positive results especially on crypto which contains high risk and high volatility.

I can't say it is bad having a price that is quite stable between $10000 to $8000, it is pretty good though. Bitcoin's purpose was not to be dormant investment but to be a useful currency, I don't see anything bad at its price point. Probably there will be some changes in year 2020 since I've been seeing lot of btc adoption of various big private companies. We'll see.

You really spoke correctly, but first of all, the team should work on the quality of the project so that their project is interesting for investors.  And only when this project has predictable prospects in the future, is it possible to attract investors thanks to good advertising.  The main thing for an investor is to have guarantees that the product in which he invests his money will be in demand in society and that the team that works on this project is not a scam.

Investors as of now are waiting, waiting for the right time that the market will recover because it is maybe hard for them to spend money in some project because of the price. That is also why many projects as of now are not succeeding because of lack of investors I think. If the market rises up again maybe the healthiness of every project will come back again like what happened last 2017, which almost all projects gone successful because there's a lot of investors that time and the market is really alive that makes everyone happy because they earn a lot of money.

Actually, almost all investors are keeping and eye to Bitcoin these past few months, they realized that it is worth it to buy and hold Bitcoin than altcoins, so there are investors who pull out their fund in altcoins and invested in Bitcoin, there were some as you have said that they are just waiting for the right time to Bitcoin to rise more, once they have seen it again, it will be a sign for them to invest in short term.

yes, because the most important thing is a product itself that at least guarantees that the product has great long-term prospects and when the product has been proven to have a large interest and indeed for long-term goals then at least investors will be easy to get even if the project and team do not do or make large-scale promotions, but most cases that happen they are usually make large-scale promotions but products don't have good long-term prospects and they will only be very profitable at the beginning and not for the long term

Having a very good idea is not the guarantee to get investors interested. They look for a lot many factors, including the prevailing market sentiments, viability of the project, legal aspects, long-term survival, potential competition, rate of return and team composition. Only if you could satisfy all these parameters, investors will be willing to consider your project.

finding investors is not easy. especially now that many projects are scam, so this makes most investors more careful in choosing projects. if you want to find an investor then you must have a good project, which has a clear vision and mission goals and also you must have a competent development team that can work together and carry out promotions well. so that your project can be known to the public and also get investors. and when you get an investor you have to work harder for your project to succeed and not disappoint the investor.

true . investors are only human which have a feeling too  . they also get a phobia , so they are likely to become more careful when picking an investment .

what you all said here is true  . i cant add anymore but my last piece of advice to the investor is that you should only allocate small fund or enough funds that you dont regret if ever all fails , so that you can move on and not get depressed easily  .

In crypto platform lot of investors are available in back end. So most are concentrate the project presentation and worthable white paper and once they satisfy automatically many investors are enter into the project. But new investors are must read the OP post and analyse one or two times so we can't find the investors and automatically they will participate.

That takes time will not be able to evolve as soon as it is, the company has not dared to take this step because of some considerations, the price is very volatile.
However bitcoin is already a means of payment in some countries although it is not yet properly legal, there is at least a development of it.

I know some investors, you can PM me

Getting investors is not an easy work. Before you start any project you need to have a connection in the field that you're about to start up your business. And cryptocurrency is not a project that works offline and it would be difficult for you to start it up offline.

Even online it's going to take a lot of effort and you will have to be able to convince potential investors and let them know why they should consider your project ,if you can't convince them by giving them reasons why they should invest then they are not going to invest. Take yourself as an example, I don't think you will agree to invest your money in any project you have no understanding of, you will prefer to invest in a project that seems legit.

It's not that easy although you are a legit project, they will consider a lot of things before they will invest in a certain project compare to the past years that even a norman bounty hunter is considered as investor too as if they love or they like the project they are participating at they are taking part thru investing too, but now very few people wanted to invest. Investors has been tired too investing in ICO.

Finding investors is not easy but also not difficult, it's just that combining real investment with cryptocurrency technology is a challenge in itself. Mapping at this time, the majority of project owners are the millennial young generation with high idealism. Whereas productive investors are still the conventional old generation. Indeed the industrial revolution 4.0. requirements with high-tech creative industries, so business people must be super creative to attract fintech investors which incidentally is still small compared to conventional investors.

As a beginner, I recommend starting a small-scale business, by cooperating with your family, colleagues, relatives, and people in your core networking as investors. Because in essence, the business is a matter of growth and not the size. If on a small scale the business is successful then it can be developed to a larger scale.

The goal of business growth is also followed by business mental development, analytical skills, conflict management skills and becoming an expert in business. With regard to investors, perfect is not enough in the valuation of investors. To engage with investors, you must be an expert in the business you are undergoing so you can achieve zero fault and maximum profit and sustainable business.

I guess you are trying to say that it will be easy to find an investor of the ICO project can list on exchanges that are reputable, but if we look at the stage they are finding investors, it is not after they have entered exchange but before they even enter an exchange which it is there that they have plans to do so and some of these project will promise you the exchange to use which you may be comfortable with.

But, at the end after they have raised the fund, they will change the whole thing and give you lots of excuses why they can no longer use that previous exchange which is part of the scam we are talking of and that is why they are all loosing hunters and investors now. The project that are finding investors easily now are IEO projects because they work with reputable exchanges.

Many ICO have failed hard to get investor are really serious want to invest on ICO project, I think they will back without asking if many ICO have success with higher price after listing on exchange market, right now many investor only invest with altcoin ready on exchange market listed.

finding investors for a new project is difficult because most investors prefer and choose to invest in old altcoin which already has a large trading volume and market capitalization. to be able to attract investors a new project or new altcoin must have an experienced and trusted manager and development team. also the products produced are also clear and have good technology. this can attract investors to join the new altcoin. we also have to look at crypto market conditions before deciding to release tokens. market conditions greatly affect the development of coins.

You have started the process already by asking for advice. I will surgest you to first build a network of trusted friends in the financial sector, this will enable you sell your ideas.

You can add also the profitability of the project. Another one is the use cases, will it survive the competition, will people use it for day to day transaction. Always remember that investors want a return of their investments, a profit or gain. If it is not profitable, who wants to lose money?

We cannot blame investors for having hard time to invest in a project too, they were tired, they were frustrated, not because they didn't do their job to do a research, but because most of the project were scams, that they are not protecting their investors interest, that doesn't care about the price anymore, they don't care if the investors at loss, meaning to say, they are just after the money that they have raised but no investors protection.

You can find investors with ease if you know what kind of people will be interested on your project and promote your project there constantly than using the useless social media platforms.But before you want to find investor you need to have better team and clear plan about your future activities which is called roadmap which may convince people to invest.

With the present competition in the market and fear of scam, it has become a tough task to launch a new project and convince people to invest in it. The market is 80 percent scam so investors also have valid reason to not try new options. Why would they when bitcoin and good altcoins are here to help them in improving financial health. The only working way is perseverance, not giving up in hard times.

Most of the time where ICO projects have done things before it gets listed on an exchange.Its a rare situation where they do able to get into an exchange.Heck,
they are just even on funding or sale state and they are already able to be listed on top exchange? A very least possible thing to happen yet all things will
happen after such sale.

As said IEO is the new thing now because it does have some sort of guarantee to your investment yet its been directly listed on a certain exchange.
Where you do have always the chance on pulling it out either on a profitable or losing side.Your choice!

Many ICO or IEO project not garanteeu with higher price of their coin investing and hard looking for investor want to invest with their project. Many investor not happy with ICO and IEO today because always have lower price after listing on exchange market, when ICO and IEO give profit back I think easy to ask investor join with ICO and IEO again.

This is the point when investors taking risks to invest that mostly project cannot maintain it’s value in the market. Above you mentioned to prove to them that a project is good with product,  and can offer a return of profit an investors might agree. But most these days it is not easy to find to invest since there is a big risk in crypto.

This is because the product itself is not good enough just like they promised or maybe the project is good but the team is not responsible enough to run the project.
We all know that every project looks promising the first time it was launched in the public, choosing a project will just depend on every investor's analyzation. Even after taking a risk, investors are not able to make a profit because of these possible reasons.

it is very difecult to find lot or big number of investors  for businesse by internet . i think this good that investors know now lot about internet and they are aware from lot of fake sites because . for example fake icos that already happend past two years at latest and lot of fake business with crypto

But the damage is already been done where lots of investors do lost up their money or involving millions of usd wayback on where ICO investment is still on fire or hyped too high.
We've seen on how many being wiped and burned out their pockets or funds because of those scammers thats why we do see that majority of ICO nowadays doesnt get any sufficient support because investors are already aware and afraid on what happened on the past.So finding investors online wont really be easy even if you do build your own legit project or service.

We the new generation of bitcoin users gives up easily because if not so, I don’t think that you will be having this statement of bitcoin not looking promising anymore as you have forgotten too that bitcoin started 10 years ago, and when it started, it did not even get support as it got no, and yet, it was able to find its way up amidst all the critics and amidst all the manipulation then. Majority of us too just barely knew bitcoin about some years back and we are already giving up on bitcoin because the price dumps form $14k.

I still see bitcoin looking so promising and I believe that in future, the value will surely be greater than what it is now that this present value will be like $1 to the value it would increase to in future when there is going to be full adoption, so we should not give up.

If I am an investor, the key thing that I look out for is the idea behind the project first which are the team, because a team will first speak of the kind of quality product that they can deliver to the market, if I am sure of the team, then I can proceed to even trying to see if what they have in store is according to their level of intelligence and if what is being offered is really needed in the market and would have the ability to take the market by surprise which they should intend take the developers by surprise with their support.

The only way that I can support any project right now is the team and I also look at what they want me to patronize them for , if it is a product that is really needed or a product that has solution to people's problems.

I always love a project and giving them the opportunity to help in a little way I can for as long as they gain my trust and they do have a great platform that I know will succeed, so one thing that I am always looking at the project, if the team actually not just relying on fund raised, but also they are investing their fund for it, once I know and they have proven this, I am giving them a plus points and actually checking their platform and inviting my friends as well.

You can find bitcoin investors everywhere in this forum. You can have a conversation with one of them and get some tips on how you can be a successful investor. It would be a great for you if you are just a beginner because experience will always be the greatest teacher of all time and all those experience can only be found from those who have already spent a lot of time in the crypto world. You can also get some new knowledge from them which you can use to find a good investment and to avoid trouble from scams and fraud.

Almost all people here are crypto enthusiast, whether they are just newbie here or expert already, once they found out that a certain project is interesting, that the team were all expert in their field, the goal and their project is promising that you can say will succeed in the future, then for sure whether not expert in investing, they will invest on it as well as bounty participants, as most of them are checking the capacity of the project whether good to join or not. It's just depend on the core team how they will handle their project, how they will run on it to impress investors.

But investors picking interest in bitcoin for long term basis too and it has no relationship with bitcoin I think, because the only coin that I have seen have effect on the other is bitcoin, bitcoin is the one that do make altcoins increase whenever they invest in it, but for altcoin, when altcoin moves in price, it does not make the value of bitcoin to increase, so if there is no presence of altcoins in the market, there is no way that bitcoin would not have even grown quite much more than it has grown now, and I think the value of bitcoin would have reached almost $100k, because it is only going to be major source of investment that people would know, so it is only bitcoin that people will be putting their money inside and thereby increasing the value of bitcoin.

Investors are everywhere they are just lurking for new potential projects in the market, unfortunately the market condition cant afford to impress investors to make investments even on the bitcoin itself. They are just waiting for the good timing to put investment. And as a person behind the project you better not settle on looking to an investors here in the forum because there are lots of ways to do like attending at the bitcoin forum or convention meaning they need to fund if they want their project to be successful.

Getting the interest of may investors specially whales is the most hard to get nowadays. Yet, there are still successful ICO, we can't deny that most of people really hate them. Specially, when the scam ICOs exploded during the year of 2018. As of now, ICO need to convince the folks to invest with them. But as long as there is no transparency and real security in crypto, it won't happen.

Investors are people like you, they also use these forums and all social networks. The problem is not to find an investor but to be able to offer him a good opportunity to profit from his investments and provide guarantees. For this, a bare idea is not enough, you need to invest your personal money and time in the project and create at least MVP. No one wants to lose money by investing in "promise in words."

But if he does not want to go through all that trouble, he can simply invest in Bitcoin. I am not going to recommend him choosing some sort of ICO or joining IEO, because they are not very beneficial. For any investor, bitcoin should be the first choice. It can return the largest amount of money in the shortest time. He should learn some basics of digital currencies as a whole and understand the future of Bitcoin well.

The token market created a monster, if there were legit businesses without any scams it would have been a revelation as many projects got many investors through the magic of ETH but the problem is that majority of the investors never got their returns and it is really difficult to trust a decentralized anon market and now you will not get many investors unless you are a reputable team.

Most of the project who were not doing ICO/IEO who were relying in private investors nowadays are also having a hard time doing it, I have once project who has private investors but when the market collapsed they backed out, and still now we can't find any investors yet, compare to the past years wherein it is very easy to find investors as they are very interested in it.

Many ICO and IEO less investor want to invest their money because promoting of ICO and IEO look not serious, many bounty campaign participants only think with theri reward after bounty campaign finish, but never want to try how to give best promoting to get many investor. i think bounty campaign way become good way to get investor by promoting.

I think the IEO and ICO system still feels complicated, for me it's complicated, I don't know about you, this is just my statement,
if the IEO or ICO system is simplified and only good projects can implement IEO and ICO it will help reduce scammers, licenses there must be for all new projects, this is a regulation, I hope !, if a project passes the license I think investors will not worry about losing money

What complications are you talking about? Like what things do you really think are complicated in ICO or IEO? If you are talking about the investor point of view, then I don't see anything that is hard to understand over here. You just invest and as an early investor you will receive some bonus tokens or other benefits. You then hold on to the tokens and wait for it to be listed in an exchange. Thats it.
License? Lol, no. That is not going to happen at all.

bounty hunter always give best effort to promoting projects, its wrong if anybody say they didnt give best promoting. IEO or ICO failed caused no more trust from investors, since many projects dump after listing in market. investors thinking it could happen to them and loss their money if continue this way. and finally we see many projects have less investors. caused they prefer buy exisiting coins such as bitcoin or main altcoin.

Not all of the investors are like that. There are still plenty of investors in the market that are looking for thew new or fresh projects out there that has a lot of potential to grow in the market. To be honest, investing in new projects is one of the shortcuts to make tons of money because they are so undervalued until they get some hype which drives the price high.

The increasing failure rate of icos, the fact that many do not reach their soft or hard caps and the bitcoin dominance seems to contradict your proposition, investors are not really interested in new projects anymore unless it is completely clear that those projects are good, otherwise they know that they are just gambling with their money and that most likely they are not going to get any benefits from investing in those coins as it has been the norm for many years.

The trend for the ICOs are now dead and the new thing as of now is what we called IEO, old and new investors are now into that and they find it convenient because it is already listed in an exchange so they don't need to worry about waiting. Even though there are bad experiences from the past, it should not discourage you to continue trying to invest and grow your money.

The ICO has been fade away due to the fact that there are so many scammers joining in that's why many investors feel annoyed and stay away with it, and I wonder if IEO will get a big hit these days since for sure the bad track of ICO will give an reaction to investors to trust the IEO that's why we see some IEO failed recently and maybe it's best not to invest on this kind of investment option since there are more better unlike on this where no totally guarantee that we can earn after they successfully completed.

Not only in ICOs have a scam projects but also in IEOs. IEOs became popular in this current year but still many investors are scammed. Even though I'm a risk taker, IEOs are not preferable investment nowadays due to greedy of other persons where we can get scam. For me trading is still the wise investment that I can do because I have control on it.

they still exist and pour a lot of capital into potential projects. You cannot blame them for not investing money in your project, you should blame that why your project cannot attract so many investors? Meanwhile, the potential projects are enthusiastically supported by Binance but your projects are not? If you have several failed projects you should post here so I can review and draw more accurate conclusions.

I must admit that in building a business one of the biggest obstacles is finding investors. Very difficult to convince investors to want
to invest in our business. If speaking of bitcoin investors there are many in this forum, they are not just investing in online projects
but also investing in real world projects. The problem is convincing them to invest in business that we build. Because the nature of
investors is first seen whether the projects they will be participating in are profitable. So my advice make it as attractive as possible
the business offers we will offer to investors, so investors can be attracted to invest in our business.

hmmm ... if you find it too difficult to raise capital here, you can call for capital in any business related to the field you are about to do business. You should also understand for investors, now all are false ICO projects and there are no contracts or commitments on the interests of investors. Therefore, many investors no longer believe in new projects. This is common sense and you should try your luck in another market.

This term finding investors:
This is a scary word to me most times, it worries me, i don't want to lose sleep over money.
In the past i have had partners i convinced to open a business with me, we opened a bar/Restaurant went well in the beginning and they had shares according to how much they invested, but then soon business started dropping, economy was down and thing was not as good as it was, with time we had to let go of some staffs because we was unable to pay them, and we was barely able to pay the lease monthly. It got to the point i was the last man standing and running the business including serving customers, i dropped other things i had doing to focus on building this business back up as i was feeling that i misled people who trusted me to invest in this business and it is barely two years old, i did all my research before opening the business and so much was invested in, i overworked myself but nothing good came from it until i said ENOUGH called everyone and told them that we can sell off the business or we could shut down and sell of the equipments. it was a hard decision and after we decided to try selling the business we sold but recovered some amount but not as expected too much bargains.

My point for this story is, there are investors they will put their money in and the moment they do things will change for you.
it is a good idea to use investors and it is a better idea to start your business alone first and when you reach a point that business runs itself perfectly then you can find investors, no investor wants to lose money, it is a risk they are taking but on the other hand your reputation is on the line.

Good luck but be careful too when it comes to finding investors for startup project unless you are an already established individual.

Finding investor in rela world project is not a difficult task but the main thing is utility provided by your project or what services you are offering to general public which determines your success rate.Investors are willing to invest in those project which have higher chances of returns in short span of time and some unique features of your project.Most of the crypto investors have loose faith in new ICO or projects due to frauds and scams and good projects have reduce in numbers so its depend what type of peoject your company have in the market.

I don't think finding an investor is easy especially nowadays market is so bearish. Many of us experience in difficulty of finding a legit project in which it needs a long time to search the project and know some of its platforms. We must admit today is different from yesterday like the demand of crypto currency community is very down compare to the year 2017 last quarter.

It doesn't matter how the market is doing, as long as you have a worthy project then everybody will try their best just to put their money inside your project. Do not look at the market situation, look at your own project and focus on it. What are the advantages that it has compare to the past projects that the potential investors will find interesting.

my sincere advice, you should not call for capital here anymore.you just waste effort because the crypto market no longer wants anyone to invest in IEO or ICO anymore, they are focusing on how to do it to get the most benefit from the halving event. meaning they are pouring capital into bitcoin mining and trading bitcoin to increase their bitcoins over the long term. When projects are not promoted widely at large exchanges, investors do not care. This is the current state of the market.

Agree with you as there were really some projects that are really worth investing and holding for a long term, so if we are looking for quick bucks then crypto is not for us unless we are doing day trading as most of the projects aim is to go for long term, so they are making marketing gradually, most of the hype dump and pump project are usually scam so don't trust them.

Investors are always looking for opportunities to multiply their money but in order to get where they are they have to be very smart and have great skills at telling if a project is going to be any good or not, that is why they are so difficult to convince and it is why icos are having such huge problems to get any funding, the time in which icos could put a website, create an announcement thread and a white paper and get millions of dollars are over, they need to show that they are for real and that the project has a chance of succeeding and until they do they will get no money.

Why have looking for and finding investor if you can manage good site fro investing, don't worry with very hard finding investor if you build good site management because investor will come by their self, they will invest money with your project if looking trusted and you designed your site very interested plan by giving feature to your project.

Yes correct, that's why we should just have to promote it in a nice way, I mean no hype, just a pure marketing for us to be able to find more investors if we are the project owner. I agree with you that the investors will find ways for them to be able to make money, so once we have proven ourselves that we are investing at then they will for sure invest and will trust you.

promoting in a nice way is a must but promoting normally without a hype is  i think not good because you will ended getting less investors  . dont you notice on the ads on the web or on almost any other advertisement that they add a promising word , lines , logo , etc and this creates an instant hype for the viewers which makes them attracted easily so they end up trying the product  but investors investing on them does not mean that they totally trust you . trust is simply not easily earnt  .

Hype is indeed very necessary in marketing, but if you use it too often it will backfire for the project, like TRON,
CEO of Tron is very good at making Hype and without him thinking negatively  ::) ::)

Good marketing team can results to the success of the ICOs. Most of the ICOs and IEOs are failing because they cannot find any customers that are willing to purchase their products and services. Having a solid team can make the project better. Nowadays people are now want to participate in IEOs than ICOs because of its good promotion and good image in the market. ICOs are no longer trusted by many investors and only few people are willing to participate their.

Before Bitcoin there have been real world assets, and most of the investors here have been investing in those assets even up till now. So, if you're looking for investors that will invest in your project you're going to find them here as well.

But, the truth is that it all depends on what kind of business you're offering. If they look at it and it seems to be profitable, then they are going to invest in it. But if it's something that doesn't look like it's going to be profitable in future, then they wouldn't be interested. Another thing is how you present yourself, all these little things matters a lot to investors. Anyway, good luck with your search.

Just like doing some business online or creating a websites that you can monetized it's not hard to build it but knowing the right niche to make it appealing and make many visitors who'll going to visits and support your sites. Attracting investors needs to have a lots of things to understand, knowing what they've like and provide solid ideas in order to let them participate and invest.

I think it is always by advertisement or the money you have for your money or we can say your funds for introducing to a lot of people in order that you'd believe that your project would success and if not then don't create any project that you've think.

I think we are entering in a different phase of the market, during the first 10 years of the existence of this market we have gotten used to the great volatility of it to the point that many investors think of this market as a get rich scheme, but now investors are changing their attitude to the market and the projects that want to get any funding need to change their attitude as well, they should stop the hype and instead promote their projects based on what they can actually achieve, if they do that eventually they will get investors.

70% of the investors are probably gain because of the advertisement and differs from degree of advertisement if what it covers like massive for television broadcasts. millions from social media or physical marketing. Here in crypto space finding for potential investor might take you long coz investors these days are hard to find especially the small ones since they are all lost their faith with the projects. If you really need and investor better to assure them a return to make trust you and that is all they need.

Indeed. The investors have changed their attitude in investing and they became more mature than before. Most of the investors now are conservative and they do research first before they got into a project because based from the past, most of the projects are just scam or just a get rich quick scheme. It really takes time to filter out the good projects from the bad ones and that is what the current investors are doing, they are now wiser.

The scammers are becoming more smarter than before but the investors are also becoming more knowledgeable. Before there are many victims of scam projects but now it becoming more fewer because investors are now aware on how they will protect their money. It really takes time to gain knowledge and information that we can use to avoid fraud projects in the market. The smarter you are, the higher the possibility that your investment will grow.

I have not been part of a cryptocurrency business before, but I know for sure that there are lots of investors that are interested in it. The most important thing is your idea, and the plans you have on how to carry out your idea. Investors are only interested in a business that is going to pay off, they don't just burst into any business they see and lose their money, nope.

So, you have to be sure about yourself and the project you want them to invest in and whether it's going to work out. If you're sure that the project is going to work out and the only thing you need is finance, then you can carry on with it. The next thing is how you're going to put it for them to understand. You have to break it down in a way that it would sound interesting to them and let them know the reason why you strongly believe that the project is going to be a success.

Then as for how to get investors, you can make use of online platforms to get angel investors or crowdfunding. You can as well speak to those that are into something similar to know how they were able to start up or if they are ready to partner with your business. I hope it works out for you.

Even an ordinary person just like bounty hunters, airdroppers, faucet collectors, captcha job can also become investors if they are find out that a certain project is good to invest at, they will for sure find ways for it. So, it's just a matter how much a certain project can prove to people that they are worth it and that they are doing their job for the development, etc.

Have you got investors for your project.? There are many investor groups who would like to listen to your project and think about its potential before investing, getting investors is a hard job to do, but if you got supportive people then they will stand by you for sure.

In the past it was extremely easy for projects to get a lot of money from investors by simply promising that they were going to be the new bitcoin and they were going to become the leaders of the market and people simply believe it, but now investors know that the possibilities of a new coin surpassing bitcoin are extremely low so those kind of promises do not work anymore, and when you add the huge number of scammers in the market investors have no option but to be extremely careful with their money.

from coins obtained from bounties, if they are not taken, they can become investors, and sometimes there is a wise bounty hunter who invests with rewards obtained from other projects, because they consider that the project is potential

You don't have to look for them, they will be the one to look for you, provided that you have something interesting to offer to the community, and you projects has unique concept, people will leave you right away if they find you just copying some people's content and project and they will even report you, so be sure you have a different one and investors will buzz you.

Those who are really into business really understand this secret that there are so many people who want to invest into projects if the concept is something unique and is going to serve community in the bets possible way. There are even so many big companies which like to give incubation to young projects which are apparently having bright future. So indeed we all simply need to have unique ideas.

right with an innovative idea especially in the future will be needed by many people their products, there will be many investors from everywhere coming to invest and work together. especially if the project is worked on by an experienced team, surely it will further facilitate the project to succeed

Today, many developers pursue the most important goals, which are primarily aimed at attracting investment funds, and the development of their project is in the background and this is bad.  According to many cryptocurrency users, it would be nice for investors to take an active part in the further development of the project and thus they not only supervised the team's activities, but also contributed to more attentive and professional work on the development of the project.  It's only in real business that you can make this connection between the company and investors without problems, and in the cryptocurrency market it is much more difficult to implement.

Investors are everywhere are they themselves reach out to you if your project has something unique and even not unique, it shall be better version of already existing projects. It is hard to find investors for those projects where the team has no complete knowledge about the pros and cons of the projects because investors do ask about all these things in detail. If you satisfy them, you can investment.

Doesn't mean that they received from a project means that are already an investor.

It is their payment so they can do a lot of thing from there. Also, most of the bounty hunter immediately sold their received payments when the price met their expectations bringing down the price of that bounty, more like destroying it. That is not how investors do it, right?

Indeed, most bounty hunters sell after the price meets their expectations, but what about investors who already feel fortunate to get a discount when selling tokens? I think many of them also sell it, and adding to the dump pressure is even greater, therefore the need for a strategy from the developer to prevent this

I kinda like the idea of inserting an effort of investors not only by supervising their investment but rather taking good initiative for project development because that is their money. We're done seeing investors cry and complaint when they got scammed by unsuccessful project. This might be the solution to this existing problem, investors as future shareholders should also participate in project development.

how do investors oversee the development of the project, while on average the project is online based it will be difficult to monitor it while the investors just don't know about the team as a whole.
Your idea is good but it will be difficult to apply.
and need good results, so other projects can implement this method.

First of all in order to make an start up successful you have to first create a product that's promising and has potential to make profit. So most probably why you're failing is you're unable to provide a marketable product that will benefit the consumers. The best way to get an inspiration is to browse the internet look for services or product and make it better.

It takes time before finding real investors and supporters of a project. Specially right now that most of projects in online world that applies for fundraising or conducting an ICO failed to give the credit and benefits to the investors. In fact, there are times that they failed to back the money because of market conditions or scam projects.
That is why real investors is hardly to see. They want to have assurance that what they give is what they get.

It takes time but with the right marketing for sure that everything is possible, so we should just find someone who can help to do the market, so for me, investors will follow once they have seen that they have future in the project, that their is possibility for it to become successful. So, project should prove their own selves first before investors will do. 

If you explain your idea in detail, people can help you. There are many investors in this forum. And there are guys who make big money. It's hard to convince people of something new. Also the business model should be smooth. Not only the first investors, but also those who support the project later, should be profitable.

if the project has a good marketing strategy to make investors interested I don't think it's necessary to worry,
it all depends on their team, some go through the real world by making public events

Having a right marketing strategy is really good, rather than conducting a bounty campaign, then better find some good marketing experts that will help you boost the social media. And of course, don't just rely on the marketing, you still need to do your part and that is to fine private investors, find VC etc and don't just rely on your staff.

Whoever supports the project are already the real investors tho, I don't now what do you mean by real investors.

Most of them failed because lack of interest and if certain projects have bounty campaign and the investors are less than the actual bounty participants which is sad

Still have no idea what do you mean by real investors.

That is the thing, it may sound silly but investors want to invest, they are always looking for good projects where to put their money, unfortunately in the market of cryptocurrencies there are not really a lot of projects worth investing in them and it is why we see a huge decrease in the interest of ieos and icos, but if a project that it is any good appears then that project is going to get so much money that they are not going to know what to do with it.

I want to find an investor in this forum. I have a very serious project about VR. Preparing the infrastructure. Not every project needs to token. I think so. I'm making a good plan. I'm thinking of using Blockchain for the registry.
