Token price often fall after ICO.
Because some people have many bonus token will sell to take money soon.
When dev team have some signal about their project, token price will raise.
if you did not overlooked price average calculation for token/coin as opening price in exchange, @lythanbinh has got 1 of the main factor addressed on why token value drops after ico is completed.
HUGE MULTIPLE SELL ORDERS AT START OF EXCHANGE1. Almost all crowdsale uses early adopters reward method to entice public interest immediately after it is launched. Be it in the form of bonus or discount, the 1st few buyers would have acquired the asset at low and cheap price per unit.
2. As early adopter, they are also the longest holder of the said token - taking every imaginable risks that the ico is not just another scam.
3. This would explain why most tokens price drops after ico ended, there will be huge sell orders by most early adopters as soon as it hits the exchange regardless of future potential spike in price.
4. Profit from the bet they took, is then used to buy in another ico at entry stage.
TOKEN HAS VERY LIMITED OR EVEN ZERO USE-CASE TO SUSTAIN ITS VALUE1. This usually happens when we get excited at recent hype in town + failed to see the what the project is all about, what it is for to reflect its actual value
2. Always look for ico that has good use-case, especially when it involves new market approach rather than going after projects that has existing competition or limited expansion field to grow
And last but not least, price effect always is dev game. Watch news and announcement to stay ahead of game.
I quote this from Rohan Agarwal.. very exciting how he puts it :
Lot of monkeys lived near a village.
One day a merchant came to the village to buy these monkeys!
He announced that he will buy the monkeys @ $100 each.
The villagers thought that this man is mad.
They thought how can somebody buy stray monkeys at $100 each?
Still, some people caught some monkeys and gave it to this merchant and he gave $100 for each monkey.
This news spread like wildfire and people caught monkeys and sold it to the merchant.
After a few days, the merchant announced that he will buy monkeys @ 200 each.
The lazy villagers also ran around to catch the remaining monkeys!
They sold the remaining monkeys @ 200 each.
Then the merchant announced that he will buy monkeys @ 500 each!
The villagers start to lose sleep! ... They caught six or seven monkeys, which was all that was left and got 500 each.
The villagers were waiting anxiously for the next announcement.
Then the merchant announced that he is going home for a week. And when he returns, he will buy monkeys @ 1000 each!
He asked his employee to take care of the monkeys he bought. He was alone taking care of all the monkeys in a cage.
The merchant went home.
The villagers were very sad as there were no more monkeys left for them to sell it at $1000 each.☹
Then the employee told them that he will sell some monkeys @ 700 each secretly.
This news spread like fire. Since the merchant buys monkey @ 1000 each, there is a 300 profit for each monkey.
The next day, villagers made a queue near the monkey cage.
The employee sold all the monkeys at 700 each. The rich bought monkeys in big lots. The poor borrowed money from money lenders and also bought monkeys!
The villagers took care of their monkeys & waited for the merchant to return.
But nobody came! ... Then they ran to the employee...
But he has already left too !
The villagers then realised that they have bought the useless stray monkeys @ 700 each and unable to sell them!
The cryptos are next monkey business.
It will make a lot of people bankrupt and a few people filthy rich in this monkey business.
That' how it will work
