Altcoins are being created now and most of the developers just use ICO to make money. So if you don't want to suffer from scamming then you better join only the bounty campaigns to receive tokens after the event. There's so many investors has been already scammed but still they join again.
This would be the best thing to do I will think to do as well.Just receive bounties and not risk any investment or your bitcoin with the ones who do turn out to be a scam.
