Everybody keeps on saying scam scam scam for all of these ICO's. 90% of them are crap, yes. BUT there is the 10% of them, like vector, who are absolutely not scams. They are good projects that will really help the crypto community grow and its not fair to call an ICO a scam until you have actually researched it and you are sure it is a scam.

Just my two satoshis...
a lot of ico scams, I know exactly about that, and I think you need to be careful, don't believe that ico will be 100% successful, see who the team works, check the telegram group if necessary, check everything, so you don't get it wrong direction

I have seen people say so many things about the so many ICO out there presently, people say every ICO are scam but I don't agree with them. yes there are malicious ICO out there but not every one of them are bad. There are very good ICOs around capable of growing the cryptocurrency market. All we have to do is exercise a whole lot of patient and do our research before investing in ICO.

I think we can find many good projects. It depends on your desire. If you spend one or two hours you will find really potential good ICO.

But unfortunately, these few percent of good ICOs and investors of these projects lose their money and reputation because of crappy scammers ...

Not all ICo´s are scams, but a higher number of them are. People should not generalize that all ICOs are scam simply because they got scammed in a couple of projects. Just be sure to study a project well before investing in it or participate in bounties.

No, not all ICO's are scam some ICO's did not reach the soft cap that's why the ICO gets failed and not a scam project. Ofcourse there are some ICO that is scam, they promoting it to get some fund and then they will run with the money. But also there are some good and great ICO's that is successful. Have a bit research about ICO's.

Yes, but even if you doт't know how to Choose projects, then use media resources. A lot of people post articles or videos about projects. Choose for yourself the strategy and do not invest in everything. Diversify risks.

Well, I don't know about vector, but the truth is that most ICOs end up being a scam or a total bust due to the unprepared/ unexperienced team or/and a poorly developed business plan, even when the tech part has any hope, it needs to be supported by other areas of the project...
Of course that we can pick half a dozen that are really worth it and that have the possibility to change the future...
With this scenario, ICOs are only for the brave  Grin

I think some ICOs are not scam in the beginning but after not reaching their goal and gathered few funds. They run to their investors without giving them refund and turning out to be a scam.

This thread seems to be a gathering of paranoids! Why do you call everything a scam? Many projects don't want to deceive people - they are weak! Let's differentiate a scam from a weak project!

How can every ICO be scam?? That statement is funny, many ICo's are sCam these days not all... I agree, but there are still genuine ones... A number of them. One just has to be careful before investing in any project, take time to read about it.

This year the situation is much worse than last year. The number of successful ICO can be counted on the fingers. Just a huge number of fraudulent ICO, as well as projects that immediately die after the ICO.

Yes its true that most of ico are now scamming, if you see carefully any of them aren't coming from any real company. They just creating token, making some false promise. They just come to earn money nothing else. So for ignoring them we have to be very carefully before investing or working in any ico's.

No, how can you say that?
Ï have seen a lot of very promising ICOs that change the world. For example PundiX. they are working on their point of sale terminal which will help with crypto adoption!
Only a handful of all existing ICOs, Pundi X is a good project and it will definitely change the future. But there are hundreds of ICOs scam and only want to get money from investors. So now everyone hates the ICO




ICO are real phenomena as for me. Everybody hates them, but they still gather millions in a couple of months. Just imagine, some 5 mln usd is much more than an ordinary person can earn in a lifetime. But for an ICO project it is nothing. Phenomenal)

It is quite bad that 90% of ICO have turned out be scam. Nowadays it is seen as an easy way to make way from people by bringing up a crappy project. Only a very few ICO are legit.

from the beginning of the year there were a lot of projects of scammers who stole money! the only plus, it led to the fact that now there are ongoing verification of identity! Many projects are also starting to receive official registration in their countries! for such projects began to watch very much! I see that with each passing day - there are fewer and fewer scam projects!

Yes, I agree that a lot of scams, and a lot of people have suffered and lost their money, I have one desire that we learn to recognize them.

Heh. It all depends on your goals. I am sure that many ICOs that now seem fair to us, in fact, simply hide behind the work. But! In fact, there is no work actually.   Grin
Well, if you're just bounty-hunter and want to sell tokens as soon as possible, then even the most scam can give a profit, lol.
