The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

This is a great list, OP, let me say that first to get it out of the way. However, the unfortunate reality of ICO ecosystem is now that the fundamentals of investment do not matter as much as the great thrust of marketing!

A project can have all the great technical aspects you describe: solid team, thoughtful and insightful plan and objectives, detailed whitepaper with strong technical background. But they will be considered failures if the ICO does not raise targeted intended, or have a token that has a great price after ICO.

Still, the so called successes of ICOs lie in their marketing.

Thank you! Glad you like it!

Sadly but true, no matter the team, skills, technology, project, marketing is almost 80% of all effort to run an successful ico!

Thank you VTS for this nice post about ICO. I thought it is a little bit more difficult. Maybe someday I make my own ICO )))

You have presented steps of ICO in general here. These are the good points that needs to be followed but as user of ICO I will put some of my thoughts about the ICO projects.


ICO usually publish themselves with a idea and concept about their products and services. And if you look out the percentage then 98% ICO will be like that only. Then don't just have anything in hands only the whitepaper and a roadmap. That's like hitting the bulls eye from the moon. We will never know unless and until we see it our eyes that their products has been really launched in the market. Most of them fail to do so and leave the project behind in between.


So my point being here is that we should have ICO which are having working prototype of the product or services in their hands ready for us to take trials of. If that happen then millions of people will join the ICO blindly as they will know it's gonna be success for sure.

You can start an ICO with one click if you a pro. But as I see you don't  Smiley
You need to start from teem making. Find a guy who will organize you everything about programming and online commercial. The idea is also important, cause if your target just to start the ICO it is going to be a scam from the most beginning.

You establish a clear intent, make a plan, and take actions towards your intent. Dev and support team must active and answer member questions on the forum. Bounty campaigns will help advertise ICO to investors.

I agree with most things you saying. BUT a working product or MVP is no guarantee at all! I do agree that per example MVP is a plus by decision making!

Other, it always really depends on the project. If you come up with new technologies or complex projects there might be 1% that could financial it out of own pocket and wait 1 - 2 years to go public funding... but in reality as said, who has the money and time to do so? I do agree, in a perfect scenario you are right.

You need to have common sense to see if a project is unique or complex and needs funding to be realized. Of course there is always a bitter taste at the end but this is how crypto works until now. It might chance one day... Soooo much scam around.. Also one thing to mention, if a project ask for ten of millions of dollars to be realized, is that amount really necessary? I mean from my experience  1 - 5 mio is enough for most of the cases... but that is just IMHO...

Running an ico needs a lot of knowledge, patience, good team and two most importnat things a valued project and lots of marketing, especially in today's time where so many icos gets issued and many do not succeed!

I see many good ICO without marketing team or bounty campaign. their project can't reach their softcap.
