Some are legit and some not. And I think these days hard to make the enough research about all of them.

It's pretty hard to find a real projects, and even them can be hacked by scammers. Just today I found project named as ICOToday, and as soon as I started reading whitepaper, I get that the idea is worthwhile, because, in the same whitepaper, described the real situations of frauds, in connection of hacking of the ICO’s site. I have taken a part in ICO of CoinDash, Israeli's project, and sent money to wrong address, which was changed by scammers right before. Thanks DEV's, they gave the same tokens amount, which i tried to buy. I believe, that ICOToday can figure out this problem, protecting developers from breaking and investors from money losing. In addition, ICOToday will simplify the investment, because the investment on the platform will be carried out only by ICOToday tokens, which completely eradicates the confusion between the addresses of the purses of different tokens, which gives projects. I'll invest in this one, 'cause i believe in idea.

Like in everything, There are good and bad, some ICO's are good and very good, others bad, you just have to be careful where you invest your money
Agreed, it is still majority of the ico now are still more in hype and good in hyping as well too. So in choosing ico it must have a whitelist, escrow, and kyc so that you may not become a victim of the scammers.

Hi Guys,
Im pretty keen to understand more about ICOs and intend to invest in some. ANY recommended ICOs and any advise how you guys determine whether is it a legit or Scam?
Thanks in advance.
If you want to invest in ICOs, you should research well. I'm really reading their whitepaper and I'm looking at google to make sure it's Legit. Try this campaign that I joined, and maybe you would like it.

Apparently, there are so many icos popping here and there and its so hard to identify the real ones and not. One thing to make sure if the said ico is somewhat legit, you must first research about it; the project, the dev. Team, and the people managing the bounties. Thru this, you will have a glimpse on how legit and thruthful this ico is. Always remeber to also check if the project itself has a potential for growth and usability once it is introduced to the general public.

Based on what I have read and what I've researched mostly of the ICO's are scammed are most of their advertisements are very schemy and untrustworthy don't be fool by their great mixed hypes just to get your attention, instead focus on conducting research and make analysis for yourself if you'll see some of the ICO's are trustworthy. There are ICO's out there which is worth investing so do some research, read articles in the internet regarding the ICO you are about to invest.

Yes, profits will come with you. Today there are few projects that can be invested. Try to assemble the team and create something of your own.

you should probably adopt the approach similar to Warren Buffet's. He does some kind of fundamental analysis of the stock he intents to buy. I believe you should look into fundamentals of the ICO if it is on your radar. But beware, as some guys said above, some 99% of all ICOs is scam

Unfortunately most of them scam lately. It was not that bad before but when people saw the free money they can make by tricking others , the number of scams increased a lot. I would suggest you to never blindly participate in an ICO. Make a good research and be sure that they are really aiming something.

People say that 90% of ICOs are scams and it is most likely true, because it is a way to make money. Some ICOs are legit, and you can see this by visiting the website, reading whitepapers and roadmaps, joining telegram group and talking to the members of the team.

There can't be anything more reliable than your own research about project. Take a look around what different well known experts say about the particular project. It could be helpful, but still you should decide by yourself.

Some are legit and some are scam all you need to do is just carefully read the ICOs platforms and evaluate it to yourself if the ico is a scam or not you may also consult your friends if you are tired of reading stuffs in this forum, but the best way to know if the ico is a scam or not is by simply reading articles and searching on google

99% of ICOs are designed for one purpose only - and that is to enrich the creator(s). In other words, yes, most of them are scams. However, there are plenty of legit ICOs out there too. You just need to be very careful about which ones you choose to invest in. Do a lot of research in terms of the development team, whitepaper, road-map, etc. to gauge how successful you think it will be and then decide. indeed most of ICOs are scams and for me a legit ICO may be legit depending on the developing team reputation and their background because it shows the intention BEHIND INITIATING the project.

Not all ICOs are legit nor a scam. There are still ICOs that are promising and will become beneficial to the future.

Some ICO's are scams and other ICO's are real.
You must read about the ICO you want to invest in, enter sites that review those ICO's or check forums like BitcoinTalk that always keep traders and investors up to date with ICO's and Crypto in general.

You cant say in general if an ICO ist Scam or legit. They are so many really good working ICO's. Also somany good Icos with good project and devs who die after some months because nobody is interested in. But in this case too you cant say it was a scam. They are probable some ICOs who collect money, and then the Devs hew of with the money.
