People invest in ICO for more profit. But it is so difficult to select a potential ICO. Because there is a lot to scam ICO. If you can choose a potential ICO and you can invest their so you will make a huge profit which you can't imagine now.

Because ICO's have a very low price and you get extra tokens if you invest in the ICO time

I used to invest in ICO's but soon I realized that there are too many ICO's, money will be spread on all sorts of nonsense ICOs and the good ones will be pumped and dumped, if cryptocurrency is accepted widely in the world with a good project other ICO's are welcome to solve problems if you ask me.

I try to make some fast money with some early bouns stages  Lips sealed
It seems right, even though investing in some ICO's are risky but it's totally a big profit if that certain project will succeed. In fact, investors have it's right to choose which one would be promising and legit ICO, and make decision to invest.

Because you can do X for a small period of time, but now it harder to do.
Now you will surprise nobody 30 % increase deposit, people need 3000% ASAP.
But you can lose everything.
High risk - high reward.

Why do you, if you do, invest in ICOs?

I believe that ICOs are changing the way companies get funded forever. It's a way for early-stage companies to raise capital without the gatekeepers, constraints, and manipulations of traditional markets. ICO's are going to be a huge part of the democratization of traditionally elite industries like Venture Capital.

Early stage companies are about as high risk/high reward as you can get. ICO's offer this opportunity directly to the general public instead of just a few wealthy investors that supply VC's with capital.

With that said, only a small % of ICO's will be massive industry leaders, and many are little more than scams. That's why due diligence is extremely important in this space.

My main reason is to try to get hold until a nice profit is made, some coins like storjx (old storj) rlc,firstblood, profit was/is low, but others like particle (old name shadowcash) , taas, waves.
They have been giving me nice returns Smiley

And no, i realy dont try to understand mutch about the reasons of the ico itself, but i do read the whitepapers and if found interesting will invest

ICO are also a good way to gain some profit, because you always get some bonuses and also you can sell coins after they hit exchangeres almost in double price.
Just another way of trading Grin

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.
But what if those coins do not get back the initial worth?
Or do you invest because of other reasons?

For example (disclaimer: this is NOT hate!):
Why did trueflip.io get over $4,7 Million?


Thank you for answers!



With good research and knowledge good project gives a good return on investment compare to other means of generating altcoin. With ICO you become a share holder in different project, which might become a major turning point now or in the near future

^ to make a profit, that's the reason I invested in ICO, but before I invested in an ICO I would pay attention to the concept first, how it works and team because I do not want to invest my money into an ICO scam.

i dont usually invest in ico but i guess the reason why they invest is because they want to buy the tokens cheap , because being an early investors gives you a lot of privillages and bonus but after that they would just dump the coin and earn profit. yet investing in ico's are pretty risky because i see these days there are many ico"s popping like a mushroom and like to scam people, id rather invest in bitcoin or altcoin than taking a risk.

Same reason that VCs invest... offer great liquidity vs a traditional angel/startup investment: https://hbr.org/2017/03/what-initial-coin-offerings-are-and-why-vc-firms-care

This doesn't mean you can skip your research though!

I have only been able to get in on 3 or 4 ICOs.  Many of them I am priced out of the market as they want a minimum of 1 Ether etc to join. The ones I did particapte in allowed minimum of 0.1 Ether.  needless to say all the ones I bought into tanked as soon as they got to an exchange.  I have only lost money.  I find they are actually cheaper if you just wait - and buy once they are on an exchange - as I only have small amounts to invest.

To me i personally like to invest money in different ICOs because ICOs are usually giving you some extra money, that you usually cannot get from exchanges, Here from ICOs you get some bonuses and some time even get some extra currency, therefore ICOs are more profitable, but i think selection of ICO for investment is not an easy job, you need to get good information about the ICOs and only then you can take a step and can invest money in ICOs.

People invest in an ICO to have more money , to earn more money , because when you invest in an ICO early you will be given a bonus,. Investing in different ICO is too risky , if you don't know what will happen to your money in return , some are scams and some have failed. And investing in an ICO needs a lot of money to earn more profit in it.

Why do you, if you do, invest in ICOs?
All investors always want to get big profit and ICOs is a chance. Of course have many altcoin price is down after ICOs end but if a good project then it will soon get back the initial worth even increase fast to generate a big profit for investor ( ex: NEO)
