Is it better to buy during ICO or Market?

[Xclusive5]

Sometimes its good to buy your tokens in market because you see some ICO participants selling their token at 50% less than ICO price. Therefore its a good entry point because you will make gains there.

When choosing an ICO, it is necessary to study the idea very carefully, to find out who is the organizer, and also whether these people have expertise in the field of crypto-currency and related technologies. It is extremely important to analyze how viable and applicable the project, which the organizers want to implement. Otherwise, the selected project may prove unprofitable, which will lead only to a completely meaningless loss of funds. It is strongly recommended to analyze the dynamics of exchange rate changes before buying tokens on the exchange, otherwise the purchase may be completely unfavorable.

For example, at this stage, coins on the market are very cheap, even bitcoin, so you can buy some properly now.

Deffinatelly in the last few months i noticed that the ICOs that have big bounty pool are so much cheaper when they go out in the market, just because of the simple fact that most bounty hunters insta sell their tokens for much lower prices

[jacquelinecr]

I do a thorough research before I pick an ICO to invest in. If it's a promising project then the price will not fall once it's in the market so I prefer to invest during their ICO.

I think it is better to buy during ICO, but before that, pick an ICO to invest that you think will be successful. Sometimes ICO token price don't fall when their in the market so I think that is the better idea. Just do a research and ask knowledgeable people when picking ICO.

I noticed that many investors were afraid to buy during ICO because their reason they are cheaper can be bought on market. Especially when they found out  that a large percentage is allotted in the bounty program. Many Bounty Hunters  immediately selling token/coin even lower than the ICO price.

For me, i will buy it during the iCO, it's because if i invested in the right ICO, i can earn so much money from that, and i already doing it for about 5 times, 4 success, 1fail, so i will prefer to buy during ICO than in the market.

It should be better to buy in the market because ico is lower in price after many coins, and it takes more risks to participate in ico before, and it is impossible to predict that only after participating can we avoid these occurrences.

[yslyv]

it depends. if project is really good and if you think that there wont be an opportunity to buy it cheaper when it is listed in an exchange you should try to buy from ico. i dont like to buy from ico so much nowadays because i hate kyc. i dont like to share my id details with anybody.

Is it better to buy during ICO or Market?  Buying at ICO is relatively cheap price than in Market, but the price can be uncertain at any time can change and to buy in the market its price is certain if my knowledge so far.

That's right, if your question is when is the "better" time to buy, then ICO period, no doubt. I say that because when it becomes public, and the token is open in the market, its price points balloons to about triple or even more of its value during its ICO period, so if you are looking for it as an investment, then it would always be better to buy while it's low. However, this consideration is with the ideal scenario that it will be a successful project as supposed to one that will fail. So, it's very critical that you choose a good project before buying, because whether you buy in the ICO period or the market period, would not be significant if the project would turn out to be a failure.

It all depends on whether you have available funds. If so, you can invest in a prospective ICO project and profit from it. If you do not have the means to invest, then you will be helped to participate in bounty campaigns in order to get tokens.

This is now the trend and even a most promising project could even hit 50% below ICO price when it hit exchanges and the reason, as you explained. I think it's a good decision to buy on ICO (just to make yourself sure you are part of ypur chosen project) and buy even more when it hit exchanges or say, when the hunters dump it all.

Kinda depends on where the project is listed on first. Imagine if it was listed in Binance immediately, the entry price would skyrocket immediately, and in that case buying at an ICO would be cheaper.

[djsugar]

I agree with your statement. It is advisable to buy a coin after it has been listed on exchange. The reason behind that is that most of the bounty participants sell their tokens immediately after it is listed on exchange. This results in the huge dump of the coin and it starts losing its value.
But, this only stands true for the ICOs that pay bounty participants in their tokens. On the other hand, BTC paying ICOs do not feel this heat as all of the tokens are distributed to the investors. Datecoin and Eligma are two such ICOs which are distributing BTCs instead of their tokens and hence we can expect their price to not fall as much once they are listed on exchange.
That is why it is advisable to thoroughly research about the coin you are going to invest in. It is your money and should be used wisely.

You are right. Most ICO tokens are dumped when they are listed on IDEX.
One reason is that more and more tokens can't sell out during ICOs, which shows there is no much interest in it.
Another reason is some tokens are sold with big discount during presale.

The ICOs that is good to invest is the most hype icos but that has a big fundamental like the coins before, BLZ and Wanchain which has gained more than the ico price much more for early investors. It is good to invest on those kind of Ico but don't forget you still not sure if it will have no any problem or the other thing is wait on the exchange if it drops.

It is more profitable and more sensible to buy you ICO when different incentives like bonuses and future airdrop  is given to the early investors ! If when your ICO hit the market and tank,  then you could buy more and average down.  Always remember first mover advantage.

more safe to buy tokens during market. you actually have more information about project

more safe to buy tokens during market. you actually have more information about project

but if you want to earn much money it is better to buy during ICO. You just have to invest in the best ICO. I recently found one project called  lccx.io - looks like promising exchange based in London.  Well developed white paper, experienced team, located in politically stable jurisdiction.

[AlexInTheOcean]

It will depend on information available to you and bonuses offered, sometimes its better to go to the market and sometimes during an ico.
