How to stop ICO ?

[ronremsey25]

Why would you stop ICO's? Many ICO has been successful and continuing to develop their project. Their developers are following their roadmap and some are been successful to be listed in exchanges. But unfortunately there are some that can't continue their project due to insufficient funds after their ICO and some are lack of support from their companies. Also because of it their developer left the project. Its not their fault if they can't continue the project.

90% (and most likely even more) of ICOs will fail. Indeed, it is not easy to find a valid ICO in this sea of scams and unrealistic business models. However, you need to remember that even in normal business environment (offchain) majority of startups end up in bankruptcy as well. From this point of view ICOs are not much different from other Startups.

Just be very sceptical. Do your research and do not invest more than you can afford to lose. With some luck you will be able to find ICO which will generate nice profit in the future Good Luck!

P.S Of course I recommend to get interested in ICO from my signature It was listed by huffingtonpost as one of 11 most innovative Startups of 2018. Worth checking.

This is market forces at play.

Those that provides a solution to existing problem with real world application will succeed and go a long way.

Those that simply hop on to the blockchain bandwagon without carefully thinking through the project will most likely fail.

every single day ICO projects always appear with their respective advantages. but in fact, many are experiencing failure in the end. they just waste time and spend money to advertise? how about you're opinion

There is no way for us to stop ico's and why ? , Because the competition in the market is very tight and there are different platforms that are created by developers and we all have one goal and that is to be rich in the future.

No need to stop ICO's, because they bring new technology and ideas to the table.
It would be foolish to stop ICOs.

ICOs will stop if the companies cannot manage or handle their campaigns anymore. you can pretty much see if these happen by researching first about their campaign, objectives, etc.. You can be certain by then that their campaign will be successful once you understood what they are for and if it really is possible to reach their goals or objectives.

You must not have seen how ICOs managed without all these extracompany parties doing it for them. Take a look at 100 ICOs in this year, just take any pick. What is your measure of success? Millions raised? OK, then they have been successful. But 0% have been successful in meeting their full objectives. Not when most of them have scheduled their launch next year. And if you want to measure by way of token/coin price, then you will see less than 10% have a value today higher than what they were during their ICOs.

Research and understanding is not a certainty of ICO success. It is not that simple, buddy.

I think it is unfair to try to see what icos have reached their objectives after just a months of development, many projects state directly in their road map that they will need a year or two, so if you want to make that experiment then it is better to look for icos that ended two years ago.

Many of these ICOs are made in an anonymous manner, so I don't think regulation is enough to stop them. Investors themselves are the only ones who could stop it, and the best you can do to achieve that is spread awareness among people.

No one can stop ICO projects. Because it also likes other investment fields, there are many risks. So, the best way is that if you are not good at in researching, you should not take part in them.

I think the ICO to stop it will be very difficult when it happens maybe it only to inhibit it. as the authorities banning new projects raise cash or other virtual currency through cryptocurrency. as well as in banking said that ico was unauthorized fund-raising and is illegal activity then the price will drop drastically even bitcoin sharply. and prohibit all organizations and individuals conducting fund raising through the activities of ICO.

There is no way to stop ico's because that is business and most of the people really want to get rich and the marketing that they are made is for their own profit. Everyone need ico's to run because this what makes the market circulate and we are also earning a lot of money by working on them.

A few organizations are beginning their ICOs on the grounds that it's a decent method for social event supports other than from discovering stock financial specialists. ICOs are useful for social event stores in light of the fact that many individuals regardless of whether it's little or enormous can contribute in the venture. Possibly later on, ICOs will be directed in light of the fact that it's actual that there are many new ICOs flying out every day and as a result of this even great ventures don't end up plainly effective in light of the fact that speculations are expanded.

[Tipstar]

We should be able to differentiate between ICOs and categorize them properly.
The ICOs ranges from a pure SCAM to real businesses/startups.
But sometimes a pure SCAM too can be more profitable than a real business ICO for an investors.
But if you go with the real business and worthy startups, you'll never be sad.

ICO is good but unfortunatelly many of them are only create token with smartcontract which they can created easily. It makes many ICO come up then the compettition become high. The number of investor is only increase litle by litle, its not good. I hope they creat coin instead of token.

[weav]

There is no reason to stop ico's , some good projects have come from them. The question is how to stop stupid people giving money to scammers.
The problem will fix itself eventually i think.

[antongee28]

I think it's impossible to slow it down or stop. It will end itself when people get fed up with all this scams and uncertanity

[PeterKh]

It's just an alternative form of financing. With time, it will be more regulated both from the outside and from the inside. The dust will settle and good projects will follow.

I wish every ICO should be successful because dev put all team effort and money into their project, currently i am looking forward to Gilgamesh (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2162600.0)... and i wish they will get success at the end.

That is simply impossible, not every single ico can become a success, that will require that every single ico was a valuable project to the community and as we can see most of the time that is not the case, in fact the failure rate of icos is astonishingly high and to be honest I am not surprised about it.

[akmittal]

You are correct about ICO. But in every business there is not 100% success. similarly some projects flop here also. There should be a minimum standards to follow before launching ICO to control it.

Icos are investing at your own risk although there are real project with real roadmap platform we should diligently search if the people behind that project are indeed capable to push though with their roadmap and will not run away or leave after they got your investment

and if we decide to invest our money in ico, then we need to know that we cannot always make a profit in the end because we need to make sure that we know all the info about the ico and then we can choose a good ico with the good project. there is nothing we can do to stop ico but I think the government can stop them or by controlling every ico that wants to launch. I think the government will make some regulations for this so the ico need to understand that they cannot break the law.
