Because people want to make money. But many of them (especially newbies) can only dream that, they think some keywords + nice graphics can bring them money, ridiculous.

We don't have reasons to hate on ICOs projects because basically ICOs projects are instrument of investment, all of peoples know that investment are high risk losing money except can get large of money include on ICOs projects, but doesn't mean the people must blame the ICOs projects because of losing money in ICOs because on every business the rise of failure always be there, should the people calculate about the risk and no hate the ICOs projects.

That is what I have been saying all this time. Some ICOs are scammy ones but some are not. It should not be blamed to ICOs because ICOs per se are not scam, it is a legitimate way to pool together resources from as many investors as possible. ICOs are also causing great projects to become successful.

A lot of ICOs are indeed scams. And many people are victimized by them. But these are the ones that should not have been trusted in the first place. If enough studies were made, enough background checkings were done, then perhaps people would not have joined and invested in these ICOs in the first place. It was not the ICOs that caused them to lose money. It was the project.

Because money still talks. When BTC is full, they will move to ETH tokens. When ETH is not popular they will return to WAVES. Same story, wash, recycle,,, ICO also a recycled story. Maybe the end of 2017, the end of ICOs. But they will return when all is forgotten.

People not supposed to be cynical but need to be careful about ICO, some of the ICO has a good feature but most of them are scams and ICO won't stop appearing because it is one of the way for coin developer to look for money, and to be honest we don't need anymore ICO, we already got so many coins which is useless

I think more people than you think are aware that they are buying essentially dead tokens. For speculation, all you need is the off-chance that it may actually become something in the future, no matter how unlikely it is.

I think you don't understand the meaning well, obviously, we blame the scam ICOs. and in fact, most of ICO project are scams.

Because people have still a lot of money which they want to make more profit from them. But lots of people are doomed to lose their money as most projects are scam.

We just needs analisys fundamental of the ICOs projects before making invest into them, it will be ignore scam ICOs and fake projects in the name of ICOs, but however the best skill analisys fundamental in the ICOs our have, the ICOs projects are part of instrument of investment they are high risk losing money especially investing in digital coins even bitcoins its self no guarantee will be survive, so becareful with instrument of investment.

Typical account farmer post, designed to give the alts something to post about,  always with poor grasp of English.   The forum is being flooded with these threads,  and it's why no one reads anything.

Those stupid icos are making their devs millions and it has nothing to do with the fork. They're not going to stop anytime soon,  and it wouldn't matter if bitcoin forked a thousand times.

In my opinion, I think ICOs will always exist, no matter what happens to bitcoin. Since their introduction, they have been adopted as a new of raising funds for certain projects. The more new coins are created, the more ICOs will grow and gain more recognition.

Not all icos fail, some are obvious scams and you should stay away from them, some are projects that are not scams but something happens that stops its development and some other projects are huge success so that is why people keep investing their money there.

Easiest way to make money for devs and campaigners. The forum will always be filled with people who want to get rich quick and ICO sells that.

ICO projects have nothing to do with bitcoin split, two completely different markets. ICO projects often use the technology of Waves and ETH.
BTC is only an intermediary to support liquidity for investments in ICO projects.
