Will ICO die in 2018?

[iozver]

First of all, ICO will have to become more accessible and protected from scammers. Otherwise, investors will simply stop investing in, at first glance, excellent projects, fearing scammers

ICO causes more and more distrust - thanks to the scammers. At this point, companies that produce and sell tokens are more focused on the product. The product is being developed and improved. And all before the token sale.

I think, 2018 will be “the year of the ICO craze” and will be the year that the word ICO SCAM ends in our professional lives.

I hope the ICO craze will end soon.

I don't think cryptos should be mixed with startups/kickstarters. Cryptos should be trustless, transparent and decentralized, ICOs are none of those things so using a blockchain platform doesn't really offer any benefits to them, in fact just giving a bad name to cryptos.

But a lot of crypto-newbies gamble with them thinking they know what they're doing and that crypto is all about pumping and dumping random "projects". These people ignore, or not even aware what crypto stands for and just giving a bad name to it. And they will eventually get burned and hate cryptos altogether. Profits aren't made from nothing, it comes from other people's losses.

I agree entirely with your opinions and it seems that you also recognize the problems regarding the quality of the ICO.

there will be a definite crackdowns on scammers and fake ICOs.

I hope so, that was really disadvantageous, disheartening and frustrating especially Investors (both big and small).

I think ICO in 2018 will be slightly different, maybe some rules are getting tougher. and the quality of ICO must be profitable for all parties. so, the point is that ICO 2018 will get better.

I hope so and if it is done well, i'm very optimistic that ICO have a future and trust ICO will have a full recovery.

Of course not
Such a long-awaited, strategic, global tool can't die only when born.
Everything is just beginning and with each year the ecosystem will become better.

[Felics]

I hope not!

The initial offer of coins (ICO) is generally very useful for the development of a crypto currency event and I hope that it will develop and improve, despite the still huge risks for investors. It just needs to be settled to some extent to reduce risks, and everything will be in order.

[cryptomema]

Morelikely it will grow stonger,ICOs are there for a long time ago and this year a lot of innovation will happen in ICOs so stay tuned.

[cryptoadmire]

I don't think ICO's will die in 2018.

As long as the media keeps talking about Bitcoin and the price keeps rising, you are going to get more and more people who are looking for the next Bitcoin.

That's true, as long as the markets is active in buy/sell the crypto world will not die just because other ICO is scam. Hence, investing has a risk so it is your choice to invest or not regarding if it is scam ICO, the first thing to do is make more research before entering in some projects.

[wellbastian]

I think ICO's in 2018 will be more than 2017, will be many projects with new ideas emerging.

[onpages]

I suppose that ICOs in 2018 will move to a new level. The amount of project will be reduced, but the quality should be improved for sure. Moreover I guess that in 2018 ETH will share the place of the top ICO platform with NEM, NEO and other projects.

yes a new idea indeed needs to be done to improve the quality of ICO. even my prediction, ICO in 2018 will increase in number. remember because many companies want to get a lot of results. but there should be an agency that filters out the ICO's right to slide or not so that the scammers will not be able to move again and we will not get stuck.

ICO causes more and more distrust - thanks to the scammers. At this point, companies that produce and sell tokens are more focused on the product. The product is being developed and improved. And all before the token sale.

The fact is: those companies that enter the token market with a readymade product are more trustworthy. Now, few people are interested in a company that launches ICO just to make a name and earn a lot of money.

ICO is a serious campaign. It requires great resources and professionalism.

There are many companies on this path. Recently, Pavel Durov announced the creation of a light wallet and the release of the Gram token on the Telegram platform. Here is another example - KickCity, a company that has existed for two years. KickCity is engaged in the development of the event industry and issues a KCY token for further expansion of the company.

We will never know that ico will die.my prediction is another new coin will come in crypto market in the next year.
so ico won't die in 2018

Its not possible that people can be stopped by making their own coins and innovation. Some of the ICO though don't have a chance in the market because of the reason that they were just build to scam people.

This is big truth and I agree with your words Because when first time heard about bitcoin then I found that ICOs are best option of making money but we need to wait for long run .
But now I am seeing that lots of ICOs are coming and going , and Most of them either scam or either cease the account where we bought tockens ( a recent example of a ICO , who launched his coin and currently I have profit of 10k$ if they make my account live ) this is really a worst thing I seen in my life with ICOs .
Well here I have investment only in particular no. Of ICOs only , which are more Legimate and looking better , and here now I can say I will no more invest in ICOs in future of 2019 , Because currently some legimate are running , so we should make profit from them .

[yomarve]

ICOs cannot die...  They are the pregnancy of future projects..  The only way ICOs would be less popular is if projects run their businesses themselves then later launches on exchange.

But personally despite the issue of trust,  ICOs are here to stay 4 time being.

[eatfaith]

Definitely no. there still some good project to make profit.

I hope the ICO craze will end soon.

we have different views and understanding about crypto here. I am also one of those people whore are thinking that this ICO offers benefits. If you are saying that this ICO should not be trusted? Then why many people earning from it? specially me, I am earning from ICO. Can you explain to us your idea how these ICO be not trusted?   

[ohzeih5n]

We must admit that Icos in 2017 have become a repetitive thing in crypto world, it is not a problem but the real problem is that many of them are not serious and dev search only to rise the price then dumps his coins and that's over. The token is dead.
Hope for 2018, this won't be the same...

I dont think by the same way as you, icos are a good thing after all.

Maybe without them, there would not even be a quarter of all the altcoins that are on the top 20 at the moment.

At the moment my friend maybe ICO will be dead in 2018 just an opinion by the way. But OP is kind of an idiot. He didnt know why crypto's is created it is sometimes just to make profit and its your fault to not know the disadvantages of that and lack of knowledge leads to scamming. It benefits them this OP doesnt know where he belong please ignore.

[mrproblem]

ICO will be much more stronger with good and strong projects and people will be more aware about what is scam and which one is not.
I believe it will be more popular than 2017
