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.

I will not be hasty to jumping into conclusions that ICOs are scams as most of the ICOs I have seen and invested in actually have implemented their projects in accordance with their timeline and road map. That does not in any way leave out the option of the possibility of having projects that may not have existed with this same conformity.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

It is true that ICO cannot be said to be a scam because they really give us the tokens we buy on ICO purchases, but what has happened recently is that the ICO has not continued the development of the projects they built and do not care about investors because they only want ICO sales without want to take care of where their community will be taken.

How you detect it been legit or scam all depends on you, thus how thorough you research is on the project you are joining. Make sure you know every single details in order to be able to draw the line. Check whitepaper, road map and team behind the project.

for now most ICO scams. my advice you don't need to join ICO. if you want to know that the ICO scam is a fake team, there is no ANN, there is a minimal whitepaper and also an inactive telegram group.

There are a lot of talks about ICOs as about scam things. I don't think that this is right position. There is statistics that says no more 10% of all ICO projects are profitable. Keep that fact in mind when you are going to participate in ICO.

Investments that can still benefit are investments in the ICO. Of course every ICO has its own interests. But the investment in ICO is certainly very good and profitable where we can get a large bonus from the ICO investment.

Before investing in an ICO make sure you do a lot of research to that project. Find reviews. Also check their Whitepapre, Roadmap, Team, Community and the project of that ICO if have a potential in the future.

To you, I think no one will definitely say what a scam is and what not. There is always a risk, and now it is even more so, many successful projects have postponed the development and issuance of payments. So here it is worth choosing the best on ratings and in fight.

The truth about ICO is only few of them are legit and many are scams and the rest are just stupid projects with absolute nothing backing it up ,ICO is now the most useful tool for scammers and its left for every investors to be extremely careful when choosing one ,don't get carried away by website designs and show off by teams ,they might not be real ,do research on the teams first

Some of them are legit and some of them are scam but i think 10% ONLY of ICO has a working project and some of them didn't even made in the exchange , Its better to check their background make sure they have a realistic  concept and always LOOK DEEPER Wink

In my own opinion most ICOs that started towards the end of last year were scam.
But here are the things you have to look out for to know if the ICOs are legit or scam.
1. Check the viability of the project. That is, how feasible is the project(Is the project achievable or not)
2. Check the project team as a whole. Look out for their advisors, team lead etc.
3. Read through their whitepaper to see their roadmap and how they will execute the project. Thanks

The ICO project is legit, but there are several ICO projects that are scam. And to determine which ones are legit and also scam is very difficult. Many fraudsters are willing to pay dearly to design the web, make a whitepaper, pay a translator, to get more money from the ICO. That is why it is very difficult to determine which ICO is scam or legit.

for me ICO is now a lot of fraud, now I will never take ICO or participate. I determined the ICO was successful seen from the sold-out sales tokens. minimum softcap. if ICO fraud is usually the website cannot be accessed.

Investing in ICOs this days are not recommendable anymore as most of them turns out to be scam or dead project. But there are still projects exist that have a huge potential. So the best thing to know if the ICO is legit, always check their team. If they are respective personalities and no past crimes for fraud or scams projects.

Yes, it is true that at this time there are so many projects that fail not to reach Softcap and after that they run away with money from Investors. but if we search continuously on the ICO the website will definitely find a project that is honest and successful Softcap, so the point is we must be good at finding good projects.

To get a little idea about the project in which you are going to invest you need to study it carefully!

Many of ICO's are legit, but some reason ICO's project can't reach their soft cap, so the project will stop and many ICO's return their investment. Its better to check their website if the team are real people, check their product, software or application. You can check also how much they earn in ICO, or ask in telegram group. Check also the telegram if many people are involvement and if they invest also in ICO.

You cannot know any ico going on as legit or scam. You can only speculate and decide whether to participate in it or not. I often participate in projects with real teams to minimize the risks of investing.

Ico's are true and legit but there are many ico fake or scams. many are fascinated with the ico scams because many think they are real and they earn huge amounts but they do not know they are either losers or robbers. so be careful and review carefully about ICO investing.
