Why ICOs will fail in 2018

[seaqrioy]

I think it will not fail, ICO there is no failure, it will only be more standardized. You can see that ICOs like bankex and GTO are getting more and more standardized and even passed the U.S. censorship.

There will be a lot of countries regulating ICOs in 2018, which will slow them down significantly. One way they will certainly work is via www.Neufund.org, it is a legal and technical platform for Equity Token offerings.

I don't wand ICO's to fail . There are so amazing upcoming ICO's. For sure there gonna be some ICO's that are gonna fail but not all of them . Stop spreading negativity please.

Generally speaking, ICOs isn't a failure but only when lack of management and development will. That's why ICOs will be soon regulated because ICOs should not offer investment to their Cryptocurrency when there's no Dedicated management and skilled developers to support the future issues. That's the most important.

There's a resolution for ICOs being regulated in 2018 but that doesn't mean they are failing. ICOs that cannot pass the regulation requirements should be stopped and banned because they're only misleading the investors and the image of Cryptocurrency into a bad state. People want a good fortune and high profit through Cryptocurrency investment so ICOs should be regulated in order to fulfill future earnings.

ICOs are in a bubble like how the internet was before. It has become overvalued and in return, investors hope that as one of the early adopters of that tech, they would benefit from it on the long run--which is sometimes not the case. After that, they would probably lose trust in ICOs and that would be the end of it.

In that case, people would prefer accredited and certified ICOs in order to invest a good Cryptocurrency with no effort of research. Choosing good ICOs today is the pain in the ass so people would've instead check the ICO they want to invest in the certified ICO list.

Because hold tokens is already more profitable than investing it in ICO, and in 2018 there will be an even greater growth of capitalization.

There's a lot of over confident groups of people today that they're gonna make blockchain system straight out of the Bitcoin source or Ethereum's geth system and name it whatever they like and launch it as if it is an interesting and promising ICO. But the real deal was they're not capable on running an entire system and couldn't even support the overall blockchain issues so that will set them as scammers. They try to trick investors so that they could earn money as many as they can before authorities start to hunt them.
That's the worst thing if you're invested a joke ICO like some of them were vanished and died unexpectedly.

I think ICO will not will fail in 2018, but there will be a less number of success ICO , investors will check all project more attentively. But hype project will still raise hard cap.

[lili song]

I don't think ICOs will fail in 2018, because ICOs is will need everyone. Because ICOs can do investment, transactions.
I sure ICOs will still grow in 2018, some people still need learn what is ICOs and how it's work. If they get that information I sure ICOs will grow fast.

Recently read this article on whether ICOs are dead, on Forbes: https://www.forbes.com/sites/kenrapoza/2017/12/12/russian-hedge-fund-manager-icos-are-dead/#4d479c35e185. Check it out for another portion of explanations from experts that might be helpful.

If the high price of bitcoin will continue then the people will just think twice before putting their coins into ICO and they will just think about holding it for long term rather than selling or using it as an investment. As the prices of the coins moves up then it gives hint to the current holders to just hold their coin and not spend or use it.

Trends in crypto change very fast. Few weeks of flat prices and people will start moving back to ICOs. Right now big guys are diversifying into altcoins, then ICOs will gain favor again. But only some projects, larger percentage will fail to raise even the minimum cap.

People get rid of different ICO projects which don't bring money due to scam and so on. So many investors try to invest in already existed projects due to lower risks. So only very good projects will be succeed in 2018.

[bramborakymilenec]

Sadly I think this is becoming the situation. It is more about how much marketing they do rather than the concept.

It's not the best ICO, but the one that has been seen by the most people.

[sakokinak]

Now there are too many useless ICO and many just stop paying attention to them. I think if we do not start the settlement of ICO, then next year they will fail because investors will not support them.

Agree with the presented reasons of the writer but it does not mean we can accept it and be with him in his conclusion. Because most probably many ICO out there already knew those things and they are now prepared. So I'd rather watch the outcome for this 2018 than  accept with this little piece of information.
