Why do you participate in crowdfunding?

It all depends on the project and how the sale is organized. For example, the recent sale of btt is very interesting because those who bought in pre-sale paid more than those who bought later: it's a new way to approach the ICOs. I'm curious to see who will follow this model.

The main idea of crowdfunding is for investors to pull their monies together to support the launching of a project. Unfortunately people join ICOs as traders not investors so the moment the coin is being listed, they quickly dump them without even waiting for the project to launch any of their products, destroying the price of the coin. Now these same people will come and create a thread here that ICOs are dead. In fact crypto is not dead, we are actually killing it.

Is your main idea to support the project or just to make profit from the bonuses and go your way?

I have joined several icos and I also trade with different exchanges and I thinks it is just human nature and instinct to always hope, assume and expect that you will get some profit from your investment with any ventures. The primary purpose of having an investment is of course to get a good harvest out of your capital so the developer and the entire team must have thought about this already and they should be ready with this kind of happening from all of their investors.

Investing in ICO gained popularity in 2017, when it was possible to get + 200 percent in a couple of months. So far, many people are looking for this way of earning, but I do not understand why?

My goal (like any normal investor) is to support the project and make a profit. The problem is not that someone quickly gets rid of assets. The problem is that many projects are not ready to offer something innovative, necessary. And not able to release the final product.

It is obvious that the matter is solely in the benefit, which today has already exhausted itself. Of course, most people do not use today's situations in full force, because today it makes sense to talk only about HOLD

Crowdfunding is differently working in this community from real life but people are doing it for their own reasons like they want to make money but they are not realizing like in long term it will be more beneficial than rushing for selling once it get listed in exchanges. This might be probably due to lack of awareness about how crowdfunding is working because people are just looking for short term benefits whereas crowdfunding will make a project more stronger in long-term only.

Is your main idea to support the project or just to make profit from the bonuses and go your way?

I am just enforced to stay within this community because if I will be holding alone then I will not get any reward for hard work, I am putting for promoting them through campaigns. So, I am also rushing to encash as earlier possible once it get listed in the exchanges.

That's right, for ICOs who really succeed in raising funds but the price of coins or their tokens are destroyed a lot due to traders who enter ICO as short-term investors open to long-term investors. They take advantage of discounts or bonuses from pre-ICO and ICO purchases that can get tens of percent bonus. But it's always blamed for bounty hunters, even though their share is only around 2% - 3% of the total tokens sold

It's not always the bounty hunter, the real thing to blame is the admin of those ICO project. The down fall of the project start on internal and not those bounty hunters who only want a real money than it's alternative coins.

Giving huge bonuses in private sales and pre-sale and bonuses at the ICO stage which are always big and the commitment of ICO developers who are not consistent with their products is a big factor that killed the ICO. Sometimes there are also advisors who directly sell the tokens they get so that they reduce prices. There are many factors that kill the ICO, but only 2-3% bounty is very meaningless

Especially when the dev can't provide a good market that will give them all a huge liquidity and then it can kill the price of token instantly. As far as i know to offer a lot of bonuses seem to be the worst thing ever i seen in these days.

Yes, it is true that the good market of newly launched tokens is something that is awaited as a commitment from the developer. The ability to trade in large markets affects the value of a token

I will participate in crowdfunding just for the great tech, not another fork of the fork) For me very strange when I see real projects for real life but nobody wants to see them) All prefer hype projects that just promising another copy of existing coins with many new words that nobody understands)
