Right now there are many ICOs coming out, is it really safe to participate in any of it and spend that much? In participating ICOs I have high hopes that these coins could be the next Bitcoin or other currencies that are really going up in the market.

    Ico is safe as long as you read and analys there profile such as roadmap and whitepaper....and also try to watch the crowd say about the ico... make a investegate about the ico Smiley for sure success

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

IMHO you can earn much if you invest on lending platform types of coins, but you must conduct deep study when investing and always remember to invest what you can afford to lose. Cheesy

I'm not a pro trader but I am slowly learning Smiley

I think it is secure if you study the ico protect . We cannot ever tell that ICO's are safe.Had been there before I never thought that a good something ICO is good until the end.

The ICOs / altcoins are not as safe as equity or bitcoin, but the returns are much better.
If you want to go for a safer altcoin, choose one with an existent company behind.
My favourite is https://appcoins.io with 200 million users behind: appcoins.io
But do your own due diligence.

It's safe if you do your research and know what (and who) you're buying.

Yes it is very dangerous or risky since you are about to give your trust, time, and money to someone you don't even know personally. But if you just do a thorough research about the team (better if they have photos and additional information of them can be seen in LinkedIn). Much even better if the team has a good history of a successful ICO they've developed or manged. Aside from that, read carefully and understand what was written on their Whit Paper.
Honestly, you can not make them reback your capital if you buy a token and the price of this token decreases on exchange.
They do not guarantee the price of this token at begin, because it depends on the demand and investors.

You do not have to invest alot in an ICO. Spread your investments into maybe 10 good ICOs and you have a diverse portfolio. Maybe a few will fail or be scams but in the end you will have some success with the others.

if you believe in your research and you think that the ICO you are going to be successful will be fine. most importantly we have to be selective and the research is very necessary and should be done to choose the right project.

It's safe technically you don't get hacked but the problem is whether or not you will get your initial investment back. This is a problem in every ICO.

This is true which this thing is actually the risk if you do plan to invest into ICO because we wont really know on what would be the price when it would hit up exchanges because it wont really go above ico price and usually it even go lower with pre-ico sale price which it would really give us negative profits and come to think off that there are still bounty hunters which are usually the dumpers when coins are being listed on an exchange which would result for the price to go even more lower.

There is no guarantee whether our investment in ICO's program will be safe or not. Anything can happen unexpectedly. Doing researches is just to minimize the chance to lose our fund. But, even though after doing hard research, the chance to lose our money is still exist. Invest only the money you can afford to lose!

The bottom line for every investor who is intrigued by the blockchain technology and its derivatives is to study the project along with every documentation, and research thoroughly about the development team and the practical use case being proposed. Moreover, the more public technophiles identifying with a particular project, the more favorable the project would be. Investors should use informed decision to motivate their investments, and ensure to participate in ICOs that have juristic providence.

it depends on what ICO that you're joining for. but about the safety, i think there's no safe cases on join an ICO. if you mean get profit, of course you will get profit to join an ICO, but before join them, you need to test and do research in detail on that ICO, because some of ICO sometimes are scam.

ICO is very hot and is more interested investors. But to succeed with an ICO project you need to track quite a bit of information. Keep track of development path, team dev, community interest. Always study carefully before investing.

It depends upon the participation, if you will join their campaigns ang bounties, its very safe because you have nothing to lose. But if you decide to invest, just make sure you study very well the project.

If you don't want to lose money in ICO then don't invest, just join their bounty campaign if they have to get some bounty rewards.

It's a form of investment if you invest or participate in the ICO. Now its up to you if you believe to their project, I know there are lot of community here in this field of industry got their profit from the different ico they've join before or even til now they're still doing investing it including myself I just did it as an investment food.

Uhm, I think we should not let the op invest to uncompetent ICO, so instead of letting him do what he believes to invest lets just help him choose the legit and potential ICOs. I'm not into these kind of investments (ICO investment to be exact) I advised that the op should reconsider his decision on investing at ICOs because it can't guarantee your returns or profit.

If it is authentic and established firm then there is no risk to participate in ICO. But still you should always do your research before you make an investment.

Icos used to use escrow for additional security but lately they aren't using it anymore so it's certainly more risky, but as long as you do some background research on their team then you should be fine. Losing your money because the project perform badly is another different problem though.

yeah i agree with this one , choose and research about the ICO , their concept , their team and read the whitepaper and search for their ICO review on youtube or major magazines like forbes or cointelegraph.
great man , i agree , investment at ICO is not guarantee you can get profit from investment at ICO , ICO not promising you will got profit but if you choose a good project ICO , and their token was have a good potential for long term hold , you will get huge profit but not all ICO have a good potential for the token , after their ICO complete , a lot ICO not running their roadmap and make their token was under ICO price and hard for pumping.
