Is it safe to participate in ICO's?

[DeathGrasp]

Hello! In my opinion, more and more projects which protect investors with something physical (sand, gold, oil or something else) will be more popular...
Investing in such projects, for example in SmartGold, you invest in the project of the real economy, not the empty shell, which has only a white paper, website, and dreams...

What do u think about it?

[eterhunter]

Yes it is safe..participating in ICO are knowledgeable where you learn how work for bounty and it is the way to earn any kind of currency,by doing and participating in any ICO is a good way of earning but you must choose which ICO is better to be involved which can give you what you deserve.

It's safe to invest in ICOs provided you invest in a good project with a solid team behind it's back but be wary of the shitty ones just trying to rip you off of your money, just be careful and do a thorough research before investing in anything.

I think it's very safe, I've never heard of anyone getting injured by participating in an ICO 

[Torps1]

There's no guarantee that an ICO project will be successful, so if you want to participate in any ICO, always do your thorough research and invest what you can afford to loss.

Why it can not be safe? I think it is safe for users and investors.
But in our world everything is risky, even just go out. Read about ICO, read a lot and draw conclusions. Many companies, if they do not collect enough money for ICO, give all the collected money back to investors. This is normal practice.

ICOS are completely safe if you do research before investing as long as you are smart about it i.e.

For research: look into the whitepaper, you ask the ICO you are interested in, look at the team and what they are trying to achieve etc. If you throw money into a poor project, don't be surprised if you don't make any profit or they go under.

Don't throw too much money - Spend within your limits. Slowly build up your portfolio.

This does not guarantee success. Risks for investors may be related to the nature of the project, even if it is not a scam. In most projects, there is no reason to use blocking and crypto currency, so many do not go from the idea stage to the implementation, or the implementation fails. Projects that still submit the planned product often begin to accept the currency, reducing the value of their token.

Nothing is safe when it comes to investing. We all know investing is risky especially now we have ICOs gaining money by offering their projects. Even if they have a good platform or website. It does not means that they are good company or our money is safe with them. My thoughts about it we must face it on what will happen to our investment. If it's a lose or a win then we must accept it.

yes it is safe to participate, just find and join but please be careful in investing when you participate to an ICO so they can't scam you, because it's too many scammer in every ICO's so be careful in every step's you will do and i hope you will find a nice and good ICO to participate

How to help us get safe when we invest into ICO? You shouldn't only gives some words and forget the most important here. Find the good ICOs project is very difficult because there is no method to know the future of an ICO project. Example KICKICO, a potential ICO project, launched product, airdrop every month but the value still below the ICO price in 6 months .

Well, that's the thing. You can never know 100% for sure.

Even if you thoroughly research them, they still might fail. There's no guaranteed method.

Yes it's safe nothing to lose if you participate in bounty campaign unless you will Invest in ICO's. But make sure you research hard in you're participating ICO.

Although we do not have any guarantee for the ICO project.
But if you know the dip price of ICO token you can invest, you will big profit.
I tried to buy some tokens at deep price like DENT, AirToken or Opus, these coins gave me good profit around 100-200% within few months.

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.

Before investing "blindly" into ICOs it is much better to reserve some time for making a deep research about these new ICOs and the current ones and search whatever you can about their ICOs. You should check for their team, who is behind the ICOs, what do they do, do they have any background in investment, blockchain, or are anonymous, unknown for the public or even fake profiles to fool the people to invest into their project. Secondly you should check about their terms, their privacy (if you care), what service they offer, why are they so innovative and are they really solving a problem or they are just like most of the shitcoins.

Frst learn about the project. Find out who owns the project. If you think the project is safe, you can join

[legaltrk]

ico = risk = earnings. You can not win without risk. Or you earn less. not just for ico. You should take risks in every aspect of your life. you will definitely get your money back.

[nitin8263]

In my opinion it is safe to participate in ICO but should be knowledge about of the ICO before participate otherwise it can be a risky.

[Faeton]

Any investment is associated with a certain degree of risk. Therefore, before investing in the ICO, it is necessary to thoroughly familiarize yourself with the project, find out all the necessary information, including the importance and necessity of the project, get acquainted with the team that will conduct the ICO, and only then decide whether to invest in the project, or no. In principle, most of the projects are safe, only a small part of them are fraudulent. In some countries, independent regulators are being introduced to improve the security of ICO and protect the rights of investors, and they are checking the project and its team, as well as controlling the funds raised by the ICO.

Yes it is. But be reminded that participating in ICO's is investing in time and money on the coin, and investing in something is always a risk. You could either gain huge profit o non at all and eve lose money. It is best to the research before investing/participating in an ICO. Read the whitepaper, visit their website, see the dev team, and try to contact them through email if you have further questions regarding the ICO.

If one is careful and does not falls prey to shills of various youtubers then I think its safe and a good way to earn some quick buck. At the same time one has to do their own due study and research before buying ICO or you can get rekt.
