Why do you invest in ICOs?

[cryptocue]

because ICOs are more profitable especially when you are not a good trader just hold the coin and pray
my first i ICO was successful i invested 100 usd and sold the coins after it pumps i made a x10 ROI

Sometimes I buy a few tokens during ico to support the product, so actually like on kickstarter.
It is not easy to find a promising ico where you can invest a big amount. Especially now when there are dozens icos each day.

I invest to make some profit, same as 99% of users here, money is the reason

I actually not investing on any ICO yet, but i do believe that people invest on ICO's simply because they believe on that specific project and hoping that those project will succeed.

If you really know what ICO are then you understand in my opinion that are the future of economy and not the null value cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.
ICOs are real projects and the tokens of them are like shares. If you buy tokens of a good ICO then you invest to real project and not wasted hardware and electric energy.

i invest to earn some money, buying chip coins and selling them later

If i like a project and if i see a good potential i dont invest all of the money in ico.
I invest half of my money in ico time, and i keep second half for the time it is listed.

I’m assuming in order to test out the market and double down on profits if there’s initial interest? I like some more than others depending on the speculative value of an individual project. Some projects I’ve come across I can’t understand their white paper becuase it focuses exclusively on a computer related jargon language which isn’t helpful to 99.99% of clients. Other projects I’ve read, I see a fine concept, but the explaination and strategy behind the concept is too weak for it to speculatively profit. At the same time, there is a project that I simply like and the strategy behind it isn’t necessarily finished — it’s sort of a time will tell how the strategy will grow and if partners will come aboard, yet the concept fits into a marketplace void of that specific need.

People are doing ICO to raise money for project which will give them money.
Investors are investing in ICO because they think project will be big and it will give them profit.
Do you see any other reason than money?

Why would it be anything other than money? Unless you mean that you're trying to support a "worthy cause" or trying to build something of importance without focusing on the monetary value?
