ICO or buy later on exchange ?

[Blitzboy]

Depends on your ICO. There are many choices you can do with your money. Just look at their team and see how they can affect the price of the token during and after the crowdsale. Most of the time, I buy coin after ICO because there is a large number of ICO token drop their price strongly after being listed on an exchange

[South Park]

Lately many coins have fallen below the ico price after entering the exchange. I prefer to buy it when I enter the exchange instead of buying it from ico.
Ico investments do not make as much money as old times.

The ico market is getting weaker and there are many reasons for that, first of all the regulations are making people very careful of where to invest especially since many icos are implementing KYC and that is something many people do not want to go through, the pump in the recent months of the market meant that you did not need to take risks with icos since even bitcoin gave you great profits, and finally there is not much that has not been developed many times already so developers are running out of good ideas for icos.

I think ICO is the way much more better than buy it later on exchange . First of all, you will get it with the cheapest price for sure. Secondly, you will know well about the community of that project , how well , smooth they work because ICO is the most important time for a big project . Finally, buy at ICO could bring you some advantages that the laters can't have .

[pitiflin]

The latter, for sure.
Exchanges list the coins of icos at a very low price and that would be any day a better option and the chance for you to get scammed is also less, because if the ICO is a scam, exchanges won't list it.

This is simply a matter of risk / return preferences. Early investment in an ICO carries the highest risk, but also the potential for the highest return.

[EL-NIDO]

If you invest first in ICO or later when listing in exchanges depends on the market situation. I try first to invest in an ICO. If it was not possible I will buy it later on exchange. The advantage is that you don't need to do the KYC.

New tokens have a lot of interest when they enter the stock market so the new tokens are getting a lot of value in the first days they are listed

[Nikobitkoint54097]

If the coin is promising,then it is better to buy it on ICO,at the most favorable rate!Only it is better not to sell coins immediately after entering the stock exchange,but hold on until the price of them grows!

[BitProCoin]

You should buy coins during ICO because its very cheaper before it will be listed in the market because ICO have pre-sale, private sale and public sale.

[marketone]

It is very difficult to guess where the coin price will go after ICO. But there is a pattern: if the project is reliable and promising, there are hype, wihitelisting and KYC the project price goes up. BTW I always try to get in during ICO stage.

Yes, it is not possible to guess after listing the exchanges, already we have seen prices went up after listing the exchanges.
So it is always suggestible to buy them at the time of ICO only, but we have to check whether the company is reputable or not.

[Rooster101]

If that ICO is worth supporting and has a credible team after a thorough research then go and buy their tokens. In the history of cryptocurrency, there are very few ICO that netted a better price than one could have buy in the crypto market. The price of the tokens mostly go down after the ICO. Some investors skipped the ICO and instead wait for some weeks to buy it in the exchange market.

[Briella18]

I see Many coins that enter the exchangers always experience price drops below the ICO price. That's probably because many of the prize hunters who sell coins are cheaper than ICO prices, but do not worry if the coin is a good coin he will return at a reasonable price.and myself prefer to buy when ICO

[winspiral]

The answer is easy:
We do not know because if we knew it would be to easy to buy or not buy at the ICO.

I run a kind of ICO where you can get 1000 WSPU2 for $1.00 (buyable with many ways)

The price will by principle because of the site profit goes op.

But some token have been got by airdrops and other way for free.

Once the ICO ended or perhaps even before some token will be sold under the ICO price,but of course under the ICO price,the will not be enough for many people.

So it is for many tokens in general.
If people buy 1000 token for $1.00
then they certainly will buy as well 1100 or 1200 token for $1.00

But the risk for "waiters" is as well than after the ICO the token price is over  the Ico price.

Like said above,we do not know.

[kuah bakso]

I suggest you first study the coins that want and avoid the scam, if it is certain then you better follow ico, because you will get some discount and it is different from buying in exchange.

[HoaNguyen]

I think the price during the ICO period is the lowest price you can buy. After the ICO ended, when token or coin listed on any exchange it'll pump very quickly. But atm when there is a huge dump affect to the whole cryptocurrency market, you can buy all new token with lower price than ICO price. LOL. This is the best time for investors

[SloggerSasha]

I agree! The best time to buy at the ICO stage. I would advise to take a fancy to the project SocialMedia.Market. SMART partnership for a wide range of users with the ability to create smart contracts tailored to specific needs using templates and smart tips.

[zokora]

If you really believe in the project and the market is not bear market, you definitely should buy in ICO. If the fundamentals are good it will soar by entering into the exchanges. However if the market is bear things may go opposite and it may be dumped once it entered in exchanges.
Nonetheles price will increase after bear market ends and it will increase eventually if the fundamentals are good

[banivur]

if you buy on ICO, you are 'at more risk' but you can earn more. If you buy at exchange, less risk, less earn

[go4crypto]

For very hot ICOs that sell out in hours or first few days, the exchange price after the ICO can be many times
higher. The ICOs that are not in demand and barely meet their goal are likely to trade lower in the first
month of their trading.  Even then, you may be better off getting the extra bonuses offered in the ICO.
These rules may not work all the time.

[HatakeKakashi]

It depends to ICO because some iCO after become tradable the price is higher than the ICO price so those eople participate in IcO earn profit.  But sometimes thr ICO is not worthless because it's not succesful when the token or coin become tradable the price is same of the ICO price and sometimes it decrease more.  It's your choice what is better to your money is either ICO or buy altcoin if it's tradable.
