Yes, stay away so i can get more of the ICO for myself Smiley

That was a good attitude before when there were only a few ICOs. Now we have a new ICO every week or day.

Instead of there being any money to make prices go up in the future, all our BTC will be in the pockets of ICO developers. An ICO graveyard is coming where 100s of ICOs are buried. You are destroying Dash's speculator market. Soon there won't be any more dumb speculators.

There is no way all these 100s of ICOs are all going to go up in price.

Yeah you do that. Please put all your BTC into ICOs because we need smart people like you to lose all your BTC, so our ecosystem can get dumber.

The trend with these cryptos usually is when the developer gets his money from crowd sales that turns to be their exit point and death of the project,but this should not stop good projects from taking off because of shitcoins. Am in support of staying away from some ICOs and buy the altcoins from an exchange when it proves to be worth the investment.
If you are an investor interested on big profits by the time a coins proves that is wroth the investment it is too late, you need to deiced before others do, that is why it is important to read as much and try to get the feeling about the project and the developers, if you are right then you will get huge profits when other realize the coin is worth to invest.

It is hard to pick the right ICO to invest in. Sometimes , this ICO's are hyped in order to have a high ICO price against their real value. If you are not technical and cannot analyze, you can be easily fooled.

Nowsaday, I don't think there is any ICO worth to invest anymore. I had so many bad ones lately. Better off purchase them after they released at the exchanges.
And it consider as too late because I can manage to get more profit before 'the coin' released at the exchanges.
You're right to prevent any further loss and try to be safe but that's why knowledge and instinct are the most important factors to determine which coin will has great attraction and a lot has been proven as great investment. But, people should realize how risky to invest before coin included on exchanges too, learn before join in.

100% true,you are gambling your money away,there's no guaranty that the price is more higher than the ico price,like what happen to icobid and other similar ico coin,price is way to lower than the ico price,so it's better to just watch and follow the ico but buy when it enter the exchange...

How will the ICO list their coin if there is no one will gonna invest on them at the first place? Grin
It is not bad to invest on ICO. Just make sure that the project has a trusted escrow for the fund so that you will have no problem no matter what happened at the end. The problem about ICO investor is they are easily to believe that the ICO is legit by means of hype post here on the forum. It is better to do own research before investing.

there are plenty of horrible experience from the ICOs, lots of scam that made some investor to walk away from them, but ICO is really needed to fund the project, to compensate those people doing the advertisements, exchanges listing etc. we can not move away from ICO but we need to be very cautious.

For me, not all ICO are scam yet still there are ICO that is good to invest in. Even you experience already the bad ones, try to research first before investing. The truth is all is risky when you invest, its like you gamble your money. So, ICO are nice to invest also because it will hit surely in the market once it has an exchange.

What you are thinking is the correct thing because what ever the ICO worth is when they get listed and as soon as the bounty coins are distributed you can surely expect the price to be dumped and you can get below ICO price for sure as i have seen in almost all coins even if the project is good

Augmenting my upthread posts with one more:

Neither of us can know for sure, but IMO speculators and thus the community of developments the speculators are incentivizing are in a FOMO delusion which will die:

Regarding ICOs, one of the aims of my project that is different from Ethereum is that via the distribution model, I intend (i.e. hope to) provide a way for the derivative "smart contract" (or apps) projects to monetize their business model without creating a useless token and ICO lie. I am attempting to change the entire paradigm to not only a legal but also a viable one. @Skalpell although you make reasonable arguments in some respects, you seem to have a blindspot on the fact that these ICO tokens are completely unrealistic in that the world won't be using 100s of colored coins with a separate coin for each "smart contract" or app. The world will rally around one or at most a few leading units-of-exchange and units-of-account. The ICO model is not viable long-term. It is a FOMO delusion that works for now because speculators haven't yet learned that 100s of tokens isn't going to work.

Some of the dumpers are those who participated in the marketing campaign,they leap from ico to ico,get their bounty as payment and dump their coin at it hit the first exchange and because of this,the price goes down the drain,leaving the ico investors with a much lower price than they've paid for..

That is why it is said that as soon as the ICO is over first they should distribute the coins to the ICO investors and after 2 or 3 days of the coin getting listed in exchange other bounty coins should be distributed like this who ever have invested in ICO can get the movement of coin in initial stage of listing and some profit they can earn it. After that it is clear that the price will go down surely that time they can buy back the coins and keep for long term as per the project worth of that coin

Not all ICO are like what you are thinking of. Although there are lots of ICO appeared in bitcoin world that they run away after they collected the fund of their investors. But even is like that there are still investors who are  willing to take the risk on the campaign.

yes I know it, maybe not all of the ICO is not good or fraud, but I hate the ICO will have to wait long to be distributed, after which it will have to wait longer to be traded I see many examples like ARK, egass, WINGS I had to wait almost 3 or 4 months even more than it had to wait for the opening of their markets.

i think that an ICO can be a good investment if you know how and when sell your ICO coins...  some coins from an ICO after ends go trippled in prices and some go down, but the idea is kipped enought for slae it on the perfect time..  and   wait for the team proposals...

Similarly to Forex, only the top 1% makes profits in the long term. To get there you have to gain experiece and sll the knowledge you can find. Same thing with ICOs, the top 1% makes money because they have the skills requiered to analyze coins and find the best ones.

This is a good avice with what's happening now in this ico coins,they price is way to high and when it hit the market it's not even half of it's ico price,this makes investors lose confidence in this icos..
