not all icos are scams, if you say 90% then that is a very extreme number, maybe it can be said that 10% is a scam.

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...

Yes I think almost 90% of ICO's are scam but we can't deny that there is 10% left so that there was a small chance to win. I believe that on the 10% of that chances they could be possible to get rewards however it is quite difficult to achieve because it is very hard to find a good/legit ICO projects and campaign. But we can try to take a risk if we are wanting to gain more experiences and at the same time to earn money.

Every ICO or project are not totally a scam, there are some ICO that are worth it to work, they giving payments for their participants. There are some ICO are failed and the reason why is cause by the market's deep.

Every ico is not scam. Some project are not success but I think majority project are good. Many ico is depend on current market situation. I think it will be recover.

I agree with you. You can not say that all ICO scam. However, it is worth noting that lately a lot of ICO projects of their own free will or not deceive their investors and do not fulfill their promises.

I don't think that all ICOs are created scams, there are some ICOs that can be successful because I think the success or failure of the ICO can be seen from the concept they want to develop and you can see from the team behind the ICO project.

Wrong, such accusation is baseless, i have lots of ICO participation since last year but almost 60% or 80% of it paid me. but some of which until this time has no value at all., i still believe on the developers of such projects.

Not every single one, but most of ICOs now are scam to my regret. You should make deep analysis to prevent wrong choice. I try to select right projects but it is getting harder so I quit ICOs

Of course not all scam. But in the last 6 months, most of the icos are scam. No project can achieve success, and therefore extend bounty and ico dates. We dont see really great project now, need to see bull season to great icos Smiley

There are still a few good ones that has the capability to release some good technologies for the future. Though there are these ICOs that only want to make easy money and are just a copy of someone’s ICO. So before you invest on it, make sure you read all about the project and the know the company behind it.

No, why do you think so? There are ICOs that are not scams, and you think all ICO projects are scams that will cause you to miss a lot of potential ICO projects.

It has something to do with bitcoins and ethereum price in late 2017 and early 2018. It was easier for projects to reach hard caps when bitcoin was at high levels and other altcoins too, now ico needs to raise more bitcoins or altcoins to reach the same goal. Very likely that is the reason thus all projects aim too high. I don't see why for development they need 50M dollars. Bitcoin was made from scratch.

These 10% legit ones still exists as of today but may require additional hardwork and research to find them. They have potential to become very profitable for the upcoming bull season.

I absolutely agree with the statement that lately the total number of scammers and unsuccessful projects has grown significantly. But personally, I still believe in the excellent prospects of the crypto market. Therefore, I am always looking for good ICO - I am sure that among the new projects you can find good and profitable options for investment.

Almost whole last year and January of these year was the best time for ICOs, right now it is really hard for projects to even gather sofft cap. There are legit ICOs right now that cant even reach softcap and then they have to make longer ICO period. If they coldnt reach soft cap, that doesnt mean that they are scammers.

Yeah, that's a big concern... I would say that 85% of ICOs are SCAMs, 10% are just weak or not attractive for investors, and only 5% of them are trustworthy and have a team of professionals.
