Best of (upcoming) ICO's

[AleSergio]

I would pick DCORP from them, not only because im promoting them and have a signature They have a great project and a very good team of developers. Nicely talking with community. Also they have a graph of plans that they want to do in the near future and they have toons of advertisments everywhere

[Ayers]

the only ico i'm looking forward now are golem SONM and giga watt which is a pow ico and i like this, all the other are very niche, and copy paste, not worth looking to them for me

[greply]

New to the forum but have been buying coins for about 2 years now. IMO, with the amount of money flowing into crypto at the moment many ICOs will be "profitable", if only for a short time, given the devs don't just pack it in after the ICO completes.

However, after a short pump, most will begin to crash once the market realises they are nothing more than a cool name and logo, hastily thrown together whitepaper and flashy marketing campaign driven by a community of people only interested in making profit from the coin.

The coins with a committed dev team and legitimate technology will be the ones that thrive over time.

Maybe I will pick the best of the ICO they will come so not because I could promote them and also have the signature of a major project and the best team of developers but because they have a good plan to chart the future of their advertisements along Achiever

civic will end ICO now ,i think its ICO is very inserting

Here's my knowledge in a nutshell; all ICOs are scams. No exceptions.

Not all ICO are scams dude that is based on my experience.
And remember Ethereum was pass through in online crowdsale also.

ICO is not scam, but in most cases is used as tool for enrichment of few developers and whales in their cooperation. I believe this already slowly changing, because everybody now see clearly, they can get more money if they deliver product and provide support for their product. Best example is ETH.
It turns out that some kind of developers funding is necessary and ICO is favored on market, because it is fastest way till results.

Maybe he had bad experiences about iCO and generalize the mall that they are scam.Same as you said both they are not all scam but some of them are on this field thats why we should really be careful on selecting one. Speaking of ICO i can say that the signature that i wore  is good. DCORP do really have a potential and as ive seen on their gradually developments i can say this is also a right choice.

You can invest in various ICOs which have a good development team so that your money is completely safe and you earn good profits. You can invest in TEZOS, STATUS, DCORP and SUNCONTRACT. These ICOs are sure to help you earn good profits.

Slightly longer but still short version: we have a lot of new, mostly lazy people in crypto thanks to the rise of Bitcoin who look at this as a gold rush and want a quick and easy buck and consider mindlessly gambling with ICOs as smart investments. Your 11-day-old account is a testament to that. While I'm not against gambling as long as the participants are understanding what they're doing (I lived off of playing onlike poker for years) ICOs are nothing but a distilled and rotten form of gambling without rules. It's like a game of cards where the cards absolutely doesn't matter and you just give your money to the house which decides if you won or not. This phase in crypto is even more detrimental then the "every wallet has a keylogger or trojan" phase following the "every coin is heavily premined" era (which seem to have a comeback).

It depends of your skill to select good and less good ICOs. As for me, I invested in Waves, Lisk, EDG, TaaS, ZrCoin and all ended being profitable to me.

Calling throwing money at an anon dev in exchange for a few random images and promises and some worthless coins with arbitrary value the dev pulled out of thin air for free "a skill" is nothing but a stretch even with the best intentions.

Anecdotal evidence of winning is not an evidence of long term profitability. You can win on a slotmachine 10 times in a row and still end up losing at the end of the day.

This being your first comment - defending ICOs - show how fucked the crypto scene is.

Over the years I have never ever participated in any ICOs. Sure, I'm a miner but ICO coins ARE premined which simply and undoubtedly means their initial distribution is centralized - which is a terrible way to start coins and it's literally against everything crypto was designed to stand for.

But we have a bunch of newbies looking for the new gold rush and too lazy to actually care about cryptos so we have all these blatant scams that we call ICOs. And your signature is advertising one of these mindless adventures for a few slices of pizza worth of profits...

Civic and Status were good ones for yesterday.

Primalbase
CoinDash
Spectiv
Tezos

There all will be good ones I believe. Look at them and their teammates.

[bitcoinbox]

I strongly believe Primalbase is one of the rare serious project to focus at the moment.
The team is really good and the concept has a real potential. It is well worth to read and read more about it.

Calling "ALL ICO'S ARE SCAM" is just making no sense. this is like calling you, me and every one else a scam.

Sure, many of them are fishy and 1 of them (Afiak) was a scam not so long ago.

But most of them proven them self.

But if some one want to invest, he need to pay attention to all of the important signs.

If you look at projects such as DRP, Stratis, Lisk and latly Status you can clearly see amazing staff/marketing and even products that are just amazing (Like Status android app).

You can see they have insane amount of community supporters.

And yeah, who ever invested in Stratis for the long run is now a millionare.

I guess that this is what OP is looking for.

Investing on * ICO making no sense. but ofc it's also about gambling as no one can tell how the products will workout.

How can something be not a scam when it's starting out with a centrilzed initial coin distribution? How is that an acceptable method of initial distribution when people can only get in with their wallets based on purely promises? On paper you would have to be a dumbass to invest into ICOs.

Each coin is created by the "dev" for absolutely free and he's trying to convience people they're worth something. It's like trying to sell handfuls of dirt to random people. That shit would never work on the streets but it seems like it works in crypto  which should be an intelligent community.

Mined coins at least have a floor price and not completely arbitrary (like the dev saying each coin is worth X satoshis) and everyone can get some in exchange for electricity unlike ICOs where a few whales pump and dump the coin.

And all the people who defend ICOs I've barely seen anyone holding coins long term, they're all just waiting for the first pump and they dump and pat themselves on their backs as if they were pro investors. It's retarded, really.

I agree with alot of what you say but you cannot argue with some facts.

I know users that made millions from the ICO's.

I know mostly long-term investors so that's probably why but the bottom line is that this is an invest, like I invest startups outside the Crypto, based on the idea and team -> same with ICO's.

A few lucky people is just anecdotal evidence; similarily every ponzi has some winners and a shitton of losers.

And sure there are some long term holders, they're in the very small minority. ICOs are generally a fast exchange of funds, rarely anyone holds long term. Long term being more than a few months.

[davhek]

Primalbase looks promising. Going to invest in it for sure

[ChinkyEyes]

We will know soon enough which ICOs were scams and which ones were not

[bathrobehero]

You and a few other people making profits is not necessarily indicative whether or not an ICO is a scam or not.

And the beauty of ICOs is the devs doesn't even have to disappear, just pick up the massive funds and grossly underdeliver while leaving crumbs with soon™ written on them.

[jlspartz]

Okay, what's the next great overhyped scam that others will buy guys? I mean "great projects that everyone believes in"    I've only got 5% holdings in ICOs currently. Need another 5%.

Primalbase - never had any luck dumping something with a higher value than BTC - psychological barrier in trading
Tezos - would have great turnover except no hard cap stated currently so it's initial valuation will be too high for a great flip
Suncontract - this may be of use - I'll have to dig into further.

Anyone know any underhyped ones with a novel idea that will be hyped after the ICO?

Anyone know of any real coins coming (non-ICO, non-premined, devs will be paid 10% or less as its mined)?

Yes, that is also why I choose to participate in the signature campaign of this project. The team is powerful with the support of the Vitalik, and the road-map is promising.

[CryptoPro3]

I am picky about investing in any ICOs. I participated in Status and will most likely participate in Tezos.
