It's impossible to invest in crowded ICOs

[The Sceptical Chymist]

Why people chase after this garbage is beyond me--just like in the stock market where people chase the hottest IPOs.  That's what these 'ICOs" are trying to emulate, and it's a trap for suckers.  It's no wonder why people can't make money doing this stuff (most, anyway).  You're always chasing something, the same something that everyone else is chasing!  The smart move is to buy something when it's a little beaten down already.  Ever heard of "buy low, sell high"?  Seems like most of this forum hasn't.

Buying seems really a legit way to have goot profit, but in lot pf ICo's now ,we just need to see and cjoose among offers good profit and have the most potential ivo soon.

Look at the Mysterium and BAT ICOs: absolute mess. Only big whales were able to buy because they pump gas prices to make to impossible for the average guy to get any coins. Now they control most of the supply.

I wanted to try my luck in Bancor, Tezos and maybe another ones, seeing that a lot of ICOs have delivered good ROI, but I suspect it's going to be impossible and we the common folk is going to be doomed into waiting the token to hit the exchanges to buy any.

You saw how decentralised ethereum, bitcoins and most of altcoins?? lol decentralised  my ass!!
And people are talking days and night about decentralised altcoins haha

You better focus on yourself and make money.

The principles, they are for poor peoples to follow, the rich ones create their own and let the poor one following. and so on.. the richs create new rules for new objectifs.

Pure Bullshit.

Litecoin & Bitcoin made a lot of people a lot of money for example and i don't call them "scams".
Problem is you are all mostly..

- Greedy
- Stupid
- Lazy
- Childish
- Impatient
- Naive
- Corrupt / immoral brats

And you WILL in fact reap what you sow.. it is the way of life .

If the rotten little shits piling into crypto were patient and had trade skills they could make money off of ANYTHING.
Problem is they don't know how.

When i started out when a coin got pumped many of us would participate and others would simply watch for entertainment value.
We all knew that there is a dump afterwards.. ALWAYS !

But they were considered something to be avoided by respected traders.
You stupid little rejects actually look for them because it's all you know.

Morality = poor people ?
I think not kidiots LOL

The entire history of humanity runs on solid investments.
If that were not the case you wouldn't be able to join the trade scene and corrupt it for ROI's.

Wanna jiggle your little dick-holsters noob accounts ?
Step on up then.
Please enlighten us all and tell us a what a sound investment is technically in the traditional stock market sense.
You shouldn't even need to Google it hahahha

Otherwise sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up because you know nothing random shill puppet shit noob accounts.
Oh and while you are Googling to try and feed me a grand retort, do a search for pyramid schemes and ponzi schemes.
Then you can outline all the numerous similarities compared to crypto.

I am glad to see that some of the ICO projects have realized that problem. For example, the Cofound.it is based on premium pass signups. It is a very good distribution and they already have some interesting concepts for possible mechanisms.

Investing into ICO's is a good decision as well when invested into an much worthy project what the earning after the presale of the ICO gets ended is big, as well this cannot be got through some other altcoins trading at times.

While this is a problem it is not that bad, I have seen some coins trading very early in their life below the price they were sold to investors, so you only need to have the guts to buy at that time and you will be making even more money than the early adopters.

Agreed, it sucks.. if to goes down to ICO level on exchanges  then it is ok.. but the price is ussualy 2-4x above when it hits exchanges...easy money for them.. but sucks for newcomers...

> There is one project with a 3-month ICO program but it's barely getting investors. This is the reason why most ICOs only last for few days or max 20-30 days to get investors quickly so that they can start implementing their project.

I get the feeling most of these ICOs are designed to be so short just to maximize FOMO (Fear of Missing Out)

I am just learning about ICOs now;  have any used, for example a Dutch Auction process for greater fairness?
