I agree, investing in ICOs with working products is the best thing to do but there could be great futuristic ICOs too. The problem is identifying ones with consistent and serious developers. Thanks for this tips

I do agree with you, even a working products is not enough, a developer needs to keep updating and upgrading their products and services but most of the successful developers now have turned to celebrities

how to define the product?
is service a product?
I think the product can be a service or a solid object that can be valuable and paid by the users. I complete agree with the opinion, without a product, it is much more likely to be a scam.

I agree with you here as well. However, it isn't binary. There are a lot of instances where it makes sense pending: - A prototype
- Team and experience
- Traction
- Idea
- Whitepaper
- Terms
Reputation matters. If you have a team with a track record, then you have something to go with if the idea and underlying tech makes sense, i.e. they have a whitepaper that measures up. Ethereum didn't have a prototype, but it was a good investment.

If you want to invest in ICOs, look for something with a working product like KICKICO. What are some other ICOs with working products?
Anyone who invest in a project without really understanding the basis of such is doing that to his own disadvantage because its really not about the token but what it is to be achieved with it. Although, that is not the basis of not scamming but at least one can have something to hold them accountable for but for not having any motive for that is a signalling effect that all is about to blow out in a matter of time.

I can relate to your point here as well. That's why we are also holding off on our announcement until next month while we complete our product.

Many uniformed come here looking for their pot of gold, ICO's provide that kind of hype. They invest their hard earned cash without any due diligence and hope for the best. Most don't read the ANN or the white paper, just the hype that's being created is enough to convince them that all is ok. When it all comes crumbling down they the first to call scammers. I do agree with your guys sentiment but there are good ICO's and devs that put in the hard work to create a working product and it's really unfair towards those that dark cloud surrounds ICO's because of all the scamming and hacking that's been happening of late.

ICO is a way to lure all the fools in search of riches. Most people invest without even reading the whitepaper.

Well it will depend on one's capability to invest, if they're too rich to invest so they don't even read or think the future of that project and some are too smart to know everything on it. Not all icos are scam some maybe but with having research and analysis some really have a good inte3 they just need time to make it real.

Seems like a lot of ICO's scams are giving a bad rep to those that are actually trying to help create real authentic solutions for this world. Ultimately, this hurts the entire industry including the growth of cryptocurrency.

Ethereum - the world computer...
More like, Ethereum - an open door for any idiot to create a token out of thin air in 5 minutes and make millions of dollars selling it to saps.
Tokens will kill Ethereum, sure right now ETH is doing great out of all these lunatics piling their money into it to invest in these ICO's, but eventually, when 99.9% of them turn out to be scams people will lose whatever trust they had in the Ethereum platform and will all switch back to honest, stable crypto currencies (you know, ones that haven't been hacked multiple times already) to invest their money in and build their block chain tech on.
Amazes me daily how much money people are willing to throw at strangers with a fancy website, a corporate video presentation and a bunch of promises.
Oh well, like they say, there's one born every minute...

We should give a chance for ico that are really deserving, we should not say all icos were scam since we gained on it from being bounty hunters,to investors and even having them in trading. Some ico really worth trying for.

I doubt this will happen because a lot of tokens are built from Ethereum. There will be some good legitimate platforms that use ETH ERC20 and keep it alive.

Being really good at investing means making no rules you live by but looking at each project and its individual merit. Nothing wrong with mental guidelines but rules will only make you miss something that didnt conform to your simple rules. Some say no ICOs but they would of missed out on most of top 20 coins. I would normally say you need some working product as well but in case of Pillar its absolutely true they don't have all the tech done but the peoples track record and organisational background and the strength of their vision is enough for me to invest.
Just don't make rules...make well thought out decisions case by case..

Yeah totally agree on this. For ICO investors you must be vigilant to the ICO you must check if the project has a feasible product or services that is really helpful in daily use. In order for the coin to survive and maintain it's value.

Gaming apps like Shadow token already have a working product. That makes this project more interesting. As well as other application apps. They are working and can be used already but promotes more development. But we still can give other fields of project a try since they can be beneficial too.
