Is it safe to participate in ICO's?

[atamism]

Yes and No. Yes because there are still legitimate ICO and it is quite hard to find cause there is a lot of ICO that is scam. No because like what i’ve said there are ICO that is scam or a fake ICO just to scam the investors. But if you really dedicated to do participate in any ICO make sure and take time to read their ANN thread.

Investing in an ICO is a pretty risky thing. Take a look at the fact that there is a lot of news about failure and SCAM an ICO. This could be a reference because investing in ICO should require a lot of analysis and also very mature decisions. It will risk the money we have, because when we fail we can lose all the money we have. But when we succeed in choosing an ICO then we will be able to get a lot of profit. Believe that we must do our best, because that will determine failure and success is ourselves. We can indeed see various speculations and predictions from others, but who decides what to do is to remain ourselves.

Investing in ico at this time is an incorrect operation. In January and February, ico is losing money.

If you study all the pros and cons, it is more likely you will be able to say with absolute certainty whether this is safe or not

Certainly, Investing in ICO is not safe. How can you get big profit with low risk? If you wanna be safe, let choose Bitcoin. If not, you have to accept risks.

[Voland1986]

All depends on how accurate your expectations and projections for the success of the project. But even if the project is successful, it does not mean that success will necessarily come quickly

[Pulafripta]

always is a risk in investment but if you chose well and review the ico its safe to do it. I just entered in private sale for atonomi I think it will do good

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.

perhaps not safe anymore.

Still want to recommend an ICO here:

It is safe if you are genuinely ready to take on the risk. Just like stocks, if you do it enough you will pick winners and losers. Just position yourself to make the winners upside enough to overcome the losers. Because of the potential for high reward, the risk is equally high. Don't invest a lot more than you are willing to lose.

Is it safe to participate in ICO? I think personally not all ICO is safe, on the contrary many ICO scam programs and runs all Investor funds, so before you follow an ICO it would be nice to first explore the team behind the ICO program and do not all your capital, you invest in one ICO Just look for 3 ICO programs that you are interested in. It invest your funds in the three ICO so when one of the ICO is SCAM, you still have 2 expectations in the ICO.

Yes you probably have summed it all up for him. Rule of thumb for investing, only invest what you can afford to lose. Other than that is non advisable.
Well OP never really clarified in what form of participation his speaking of, it can be participation in bounty programs and not investing.
Investing is also not advisable to ICOs managed by non trusted managers and dev team.

No investment is 100% safe, and all investment carries certain degree of risk, and the risk is much more higher to participate in ICOs. Some ICOs are backed by solid projects and management team with large followers, naturally the value of their coins will gain , a lot of ICOs are just scams, any investment with these ICOs will be total loss. To minimize risk, much research have to be done before participate in any ICO.

[fosco333]

there is a distinct advantage in investing in ICO, because the exact price is below the current price in the market. is this safe? I'm also very hesitant to invest in an ICO because of the many scam ICOs of late.
if you want to participate in ICO, then do some research and see their team.

Yes, do some research, a deep research i suggest. Because if you just look at their project only, you won't know whether they are scam or not.
Join into their social media, look at the activity. if there is no update from team for long time, its time to leave them.

The short answer is it depends because not all ICOs are created equal. You have to choose pretty much in the same way that you choose who you go to bed with. Is having sex safe?

[Lenwa07]

50% safe and 50% not safe, why? Because not all the ICO that we see is legit or real ICO there are some or there are many ICO are scams nowadays. But if you ask me if i still do participates in any ICO? Yup I’m still here to support any ICO.

This information help to choose the best ICO project. Now most of the people. Check the project then people will be invest. It good time to invest. It hold the token long time. If hold the token long time. You get more profit.

You must be careful with what you invest. I'm a victim of a bad ICO because of a lack of experience and did not do the necessary thorough checks. And ICO scammers are everywhere. So be careful, be vigilant.

Paricipating in ICOs is dangerous in any time. During growing market is safer buy ICO tokens because a lot of ICO rising hard cap and distrubute tokens
