Investing in ICO, still promising?

[Gerci]

investment ICO, no foreign I heard, I most happy if employment investment, although I have not got a lot of profit from ICO investment, and many loss, but I still follow ICO investment, often also I got a scam, but it is indeed the risk of a business, create the future, I have extra careful on each project ICO

[johnalyn]

I think i agree with that because investing in bitcoin really good to earn more the more you invest the more in return, but you must know first the ICO sometimes it maybe scam it is really a great risk when entering a campaign to invest.

There are promising ICOs and there are unsuccessful and fraudulent ones. If you are able to invest on the real ones then chances are high that you will get profit. So the answer in this question is not really simply a yes or a no because it is based on case to case scenario.

One issue with ICOs is unlike IPOs we're investing in ideas, products that haven't been developed yet. That means there's a lot of risk involved, because we haven't seen how effective the team is, arguably the most important element of a business. Usually accredited investors and VC are willing to take on that risk, but ICOs are targeting regular people.

There are still some good ICOs out there. I follow certain criteria to sift through the crap and of course, take huge risks investing but it usually worth it.Also participating in bounty might minimize your risks

Be careful not all ico coins can make a profit. There are some ico coins that eventually scam before our capital back. If you want to invest a better investment in altcoin that will definitely continue to increase in price and will definitely be profitable.

I am a person that gains profit from investing in ICOs but now I'm having second thoughts. I know some ICOs are potential scam so I am really picky to where I put my money.
Anyway, considering with what happened to Ethereum price and with the nearing Aigist 1, do you guys think that it will still be profitable to invest on ICOs mostly on ERC20 tokens and those accepting btc payments?

It's not promising any more. Icos turned into a system where the owners exploit investors. So you better be careful on new ones.

ICO brought a huge demand for ethereum too.

only a few ICOs are still promising because most ICOs are fraudulent. so you have to trace carefully to the ICO you are going to follow or you will lose

[NelfiNovita]

Looks very promising to me as long term investment. It can be the biggest case of crypt mass adoption.

to follow an ICO you have to look closely for you to get a big profit. so you have to be careful that you do not fail in the future.

I hope to get a big profit with this.

[tomvildc]

Yes, In case you research carefully about that project. Not just about the profit they told you!

I have a different thought with you. I always believe that ICOs is always promising. Look at the market now, you can see many there are many successful projects recently such as Bitclave, Utrust, Quantstamp, Wax, Blockstack,.. This proves investing in ICO is never a mistake. However, the most important thing is that what is the good way to find out a potential project?

[zebmmo]

There are still lots of good ico now, cyber miles is a good example now. It price grow fast and still very bullish.

I think yes , Because most of the ICOs are not scam they are having legtimate project , So if we can invest in all of the ICOs then we can make lots of the earnings atleast we will get net gain profit .
Here I myself was not addicted to the ICOs investment but when I get into once and made profit then I made myself 100% sure that in most of the ICOs I can make easy profit but once I get scammed in one of the ICO , so after that I am making investment only after the investigation fully whether the project is legimate or not and making sure that what will be the future of the ICOs project and is Thier any unique thing that can make the them more famouse or useful for the people who are working in the cryptocurrency field .

Investing in ICOs is still promising for as long as you have to be sure about the ICO you're about to invest. ICO scams are increasing in numbers because of the fact that cryptos are in the streamline today. Many investors want to invest and many people want to be rich without even thinking twice.

Thousand of ICO are running now but you have to choose only the few ones who are legitimate.
Always make your research before putting your money, to ensure you have a chance to be profitable, scams will just take your money without a chance for return.

Not so sure about the always.  It could be real easy to lose money in an ICO if the company running it lies or does not produce the product as represented, or just runs off with the money.  This has happened, so not all ICO can be trusted, just like not all people can be trusted

[ajiejot]

Yes. Most of ICO nowadays are scam, they are very greedy on money. But still some of ICO now are still legit. Just select it, you should first research the project you want to invest in. It takes time to identify if scam or not. Good luck.

[Sand King]

Looking at what projects, we already need to competently assess risks, more and more distrust of ICO from investors

Offcourse it's a yes, investing in ICO is still promising because there many good ICO project, and if we can choose a promising  ico project we can totally make many from it, and i am believing thag ICO can make use rich in the future, and my advice is before investing in ico we should choose first a promising ICO.

[moonblocks]

You could argue the larger and better rated/reviewed an ICO is the better chances it has of succeeding in both reaching hard cap and having more market stability but a lot of that is driven by massive amounts of hype and extremely high expectations

There are some exceptions to this however *hint*

[kimmali]

Eventhough almost 70% in ICO's are scam,I think it is still promising to invest money in ICO as long as you choose the right company where to invest to.Also,there are many good projects in ICO, meaning its profitable.
The best thing to do is reasearch for the project you want to join first to identify if it's a scam or not.

[DennisStoff]

actually invest on ICO is profitable, but for now will be better if you invest on bitcoin, now there so many ICO potentially to be scammed, when the ETH going down, it will be good time to buy it and waiting for the stable price again. erc20 token now will grow up because the ETH price little bit fall, it should be given you profit if you invest in it. but keep stay aware.!

[bitlayer]

I believe there are still good opportunities out there. Although It would require a good research on your Side to avoid scams. I am new in this world and my first criteria before putting my money into a project (I am a small investor) is to check if there is a solid company / product behind the ICO. Recently I made an investiment on AppCoins, since they are backed by Aptoide, a 200 million user company. I also found crowdsale and whitepaper docs reliable. I hope I won't regret.
