Why do you invest in ICOs?

[Mbokani]

I don't see anything wrong investing on ICOs. Many people earned money and multiplied their investments on good ICOs. The most important thing there is learn their product by reading or at least scan their whitepaper and take a look at their team if reliable enough.

Trust is the important factor while investing and the team behind the project is more important than any other aspects,i have made some decent amount of money with some of the investments i have made in the past and then there are a few others which did not live up to the expectation and gave some losses.

Problem is that most people just FOMO into whatever ICO is popular without doing any research or even reading the projects whitepaper.

And now the result is a million useless ICOs have sprung up for every stupid useless idea imaginable.

Yes all those white-papers are written by freelance writers who work for 0.001 btc per whitepaper.Does it hold any value to you ? For me it doesn't.What a project would be if they can't write their own white paper ?

And now the result is a million useless ICOs have sprung up for every stupid useless idea imaginable.

The idea never reaches the actual market.Once the ICO is over,the project is done,founder's pockets are full and investors can buy themselves a bucket for the tears.

The reason anyone invests in ICO is in hopes of getting in early on the next big coin. You are right though that there is currently a massive amount of shit projects that get funded way more than they should realistically need or than they could ever be worth in the real world.

This is why when I see a project has raised a lot of money in the ico I prefer to not invest since there is not going be anyone to buy the coin once it hits the exchanges, you need to look at coins that did not raise as much money or that have a cap in the amount they want to raise.

Invest on ICO can give you profit easily, because at the time of ICO, most projects give percentage bonus to investor from 40% to 10%. After ICOs end, you can sell your coin/token and gain profit. Yes, always do your own research before doing invest due so much ICO ended up being a scam.

[HEROinME]

Investing in ICO is akin to investing in an IPO for a public listed company in my opinion.
however, the main caveat is the lack of regulatory oversight in an ICO versus an IPO which listed companies have to jump thru hoops and pay investment bankers tons of $$$ to get onto the stock exchanges.
then again, even with all that "big brother" oversight, there are still shell companies out there that basically makes money via raising fund from the capital market and benefiting the founders.

ICO allows us to gain access to startups with a great business idea and hopefully, the founding team carries the project to fruition, who knows you could be funding the next google/facebook of the blockchain world.

however, if you are investing your own money, it is only right your research on the ICO before committing your money. alternatively, you could just spread bet and hope one of your bets hit the jackpot!

the medium for investment is different (coins vs fiat), however, the investment approach should be the same. Research and Diversification.

What kind of question is that? 

Maybe because they pay off nicely?

That's right about ico and I could not argue about this matters regarding profit,  because the token from the ico generated from funds being raised with the campaign gives you a sustainable amount to fulfill your will from the investments you have. Trading your tokens is the options to reach your goals of holding or direct selling of the tokens you had, since this is one way of getting profit as well with traders who also invested their funds directly buying and selling at the trusted trading sites.

More people engage or invest in ICOs because it's the best time to invest and get a chance to have a coin in a very low price and get a chance also to get a 100% profit from your investment when the coin reaches the highest price.

[Invester]

I join in ICOs to avail of huge bonuses. I prefer to be an early birds to ICOs that I trust and closely followed. Early bonuses are even given as huge as 60%. That is already a huge profit when the token is introduced to the exchange platforms with the ICO price. What if it rises? Another profit. 

[chichan13]

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.

Well, if the project was very nice and it will good enough in the future I will invest some money and bitcoin to that. In addition to that, investing in ICO will also help you to gain a lot of income. As of now there are lot of ICO that you can invest and you can also avail some promos to that ICO. Lastly, investing in ICO is also one the best to gain a huge amount of money.

[layoutph]

Okay, if you believe in the business behind the ICO you will probably invest. 3hrs from Now I am going to invest with the ICO I am wearing from my sig.

Why? Its a game platform with over 1million downloads from the google play. Meaning this would be a successful afterwards. I am going to buy the cheap coins and resell it later to gamers for a higher price.

Well, it is natural that some of the projects that we invest in do not give to us the profits we are looking for, however when you are able to predict right an ICO and you hold, that may be enough to offset all your losses and give you profits that is why despite the losses people keep investing in icos so they find the next big coin.

That so amazing to have ICO as investments,  but the possibility of failing with the project is always possible. So I myself didn't invest with ICO,  but I am joining the campaign of thpse previous promising campaigns. My motives is to help the current devopments of altcoins so that I can earn bounty tokens as well as spreading the words wearing their respective signature codes of the campaign.

Because if we Invest on ICO, ico can give profit so easily. That's the real reason why many people follow ico.
We have a chance to buy at the lowest price and sell it with a high price when it has entered the market.

[indrakusumaindra]

You are wearing the signature and avatar of what I think it is a good ICO, the BitDice ICO, that is a successful casino already and they are now releasing their token I have no doubt that whoever invest in that ICO is going to make some good earnings, nothing spectacular but more money in your pocket is always good.

I don't invest in ICO if I see - "Pre-ico"... If was Pre-ICO,I better will buy on exchanges, than i take part in ICO ...
