Why do you invest in ICOs?

[duyduc256]

Investment in ICO is a trend of the future. I think in future ICO projects will be censored more carefully and certainly the ICO projects must be legal. I hope in the future there will be no scam ICO because everyone is keen to invest in ICO

For me it is good to invest in some alt-coin specially if they have ICO because we know how there coin go further and how much is there market cap.
It is good for long term investment also! I just have some alt-coin by joining there ICO bounty campaign and some of them I already cash-out.

ICOs does not automatically give you a sure profit when it is on the market. When you are buying an ICO it does not guarantee you that you have bought it in its lowest price the chance of it still going down is big after a big pump. As an ICO investor or trader you must always anticipate and monitor its market cap as you will notice if some kind of fake up trend is going on. I suggest that you always do your own research if you want to invest in some good ICOs

And did you make any money with that logic ? "I invest in the ICO because I know the coin will have a good market cap".Go Home Sir.

That doesn't make you an investor ,that makes you a bounty whore.

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 ...

I do not mind a pre ICO if there is a reason for it, like giving previous investors or customers some preference, the thing that really bothers me are the ICOs that give very high bonus to early investors those investors have a huge advantage over regular investors since they are in profit even before the coin hit the exchanges

[crypto-curious]

i usually get into ICOs if the tech behind it makes me believe that this is going to change the world or atleast has a chance to do so or even if it is also aligned to my beliefs on how the tech is going to advance in the coming years.

The reason why I invest in ICOs is only because there is too much risk in bitcoin investments. The higher the value , the higher the risk. The risk is very low in ICO investments, and you might loose or benefit within a short period of time. There is no investors who is interested in loosing their money. Besides, you buy the coins and tokens at a very low value and might sell it at a higher value.

[corroze]

I think investing in bitcoin and investing in ICO has the same risk, but to get big profits with a relatively short time of course ICO has more opportunities to get it, but it certainly requires careful ICO investment research to minimize the risk of loss.

[SimmonenY]

I invest in ICO only when I really believe in it. Unfortunately there are so many scams right now. But if I see that the idea is good and has a potential, their tokens may raise in price, the team is good and whitepaper is reasonable then why not invest?

[hieuho381]

I often invest in ICO projects because the ICO I choose use good technologies and can apply in my life. I think if we know how to choose good ICO, then you will make a good profit

Hi,
this thread I want to ask you: Why do you, if you do, invest in ICOs?
I see horrible huge amounts of money going to those. What do investors think to get in return?
Mostly it's the same case: ICO starts, much money comes in, you get the coins.

That was back then, things are slowly changing because investors are now more careful and prudent in where they investment money
Investors invest in projects that are probable that the investment will payback with an interest

But what if those coins do not get back the initial worth?

Its not going to happen over night it might take years for some projects to reap profits its all about patience

Or do you invest because of other reasons?

Some projects are practical and are aimed at helping people more efficiently with the help of the blockchain technology...which makes such worth investing in

[Duzter]

The growth is promised, whether it's short time or long time the ICO price pumping happens once after the distribution of tokens. Another thing is that we can get a good profit if invested in the early days or by the starting week of the token pre-sale, because around 25-50% more token is provided for the invested amount.

[speakoo]

For quick money , frankly speaking . No matter how the projects are, it can give me quick money , it is a good ico.

[Saj.Daya]

I think giving people access to invest in early stage startups is a good thing. We're told that we have to have $10 million in assets in order to invest in such projects - but why? Are we really being protected? I don't trust that the government necessarily has our best interest at heart. Hence, I think ICO's are a GREAT innovation.

I personally invest in ICO projects that contribute legitimate value to the world. Each of us must assess what legitimate value for themselves, and naturally their are risks involved. But precluding retail investors from startups isn't fair, in my opinion.

The one and most probably the only reason people invest in ICOs is MONEY. "What do investors think to get in return?" Money nonetheless. But for me, to be honest, I don't want to invest in ICOs or rather I'm scared of investing 'cause I could probably end up losing all my money. Investing in general is a risks but risks could result in two things it's either you great freaking rich in a period of time or you could lose all your money. So, investing in ICOs really depends on your intentions, whether you’re looking for a quick buck or a long-term investment.

[zidanw]

Why invest in ico is definitely due to profit although sometimes there is a loss because ico does not run smoothly, but that includes from the risk of an investment, you must be smart in choosing ico you want to invest. Dev is serious with the his project will give an profits to investors to attract a lot of investors, maybe you must try to participate pre-sale token because the investors will get more profits than dev but the minimum investment is not little.

Don't invest in all your money in one ico, you can separate your money into 5-8 icos, then you can't lost all you money .
Why invest in icos?   For money.

I think investing in ICO projects is risky because we can not verify the origin of the ICO and who is the founder of the project. People invest in ICOs just for high profits and do not care about risky issues

If you are a newbie you would really think on this kind of thing which you would really ask into your mind regarding on the transparency or legitimacy of the project and as an investor we should really know how to spot a good project and as been said investing on ico are very risky as an investor we wont really know if it would make us profits or even loss because most ico do end mostly on having less price than on its ico price which is really frustrating.
