Please explain whats the hype rate of ico???
I know that roi and risk rate. I am confused about hype rate
If you google it you will find this: "1. extravagant or intensive publicity or promotion." and that is exactly what it is when referring to and ICO.
Hype is based in promises, in exaggerated predictions and in selling dreams... but also requires a good project in which people can believe. Also, hype can be obtained by paying for adoption. All Airdrops are paying for adoption and all telegram campaigns are aimed to create the false look of people willing to invest by the thousands.
If you want to see what Hype looks like, just see the effect of the "free Poymath" tokens given for people following their telegram or look into

Technically, most ICO launchers and marketer have figured out by now that to obtain the funding in this new environment they have to act in two fronts:
a) Large investors
b) Small investors
And they have also figured out that to have appeal to the first group they need to show that people in the second group are enthusiastic about the idea and the project. And here´s where hype kicks into place. To create the illusion (sometimes the reality) of people being interested you need to make your project the buzzword of Twitter, Facebook and, for ICOs, of Bitcoin talk.
