Is it better to buy during ICO or Market?

[overseer470]

It is very discussion question. Firstly, your ICO-coin can not be listing on any exchanges. Secondly, its price after listing can be falling down. but on the other hand price of your coin can increase. You need some luck to choose right ICO.

Firstly you have to study the roadmap of a particular project to know what they're planning for their future.
If you see in them success you can invest in their ICO.
ICO is good due to some bonuses and discount attached to it.
Then if you're doubting  their success, better for you to wait and buy on exchange.

The statistic says that it a better way to buy coins on etherdelta or other exchanges just after ICO, because many people sell it for lower prices.

It depends on the ICO, the company is really good with good valuation, and all of the tokens sold to hardcap, these are all you want to buy on ICO tokens, but need to study what code will reach hardcap.

Now it is better to wait for the coin to go to the exchanges, the price from the moment of ICO often falls. It is especially advantageous to buy now on decentralized exchange.

if the investment is done with fear from the mental self then the result will be bad. I think smart investors have their own way of choosing to invest when ICO or in the market. but I think the advantage when buying when ICO is a big bonus whereas when in the market there is no bonus.

Since the start of the topic and still in most cases it is more profitable to buy on the  exchange. ICO with hardcap also does not provide growth immediately after the listing.
Perhaps, something will change when the market will rise.

Depends on the company.  If this is a good and promising company, then I advise you to invest better in ICO to get more coins at a lower price.

[rapidgoog]

If you see a good project, I recommend to buy coins or tokens when ICO
because, the token price when ICO is very cheap and the transaction is very safe

[parlerm]

You're right sometime price after that token listed on exchange more lower because of many bounty and airdrop. Beside that it more safe because we can avoid risk of SCAM.

For sure, it is better to buy in the ICO period, but it is also much more risky. Many of the ICOs today are being created just to take your money away and crash in the middle of the road. There are the majority of such ICO, so you have to be really careful if you want to invest during it.

I think so too.  If you trust the company, it is better to invest in ICO.  If not, it's better not to take chances.

the projects that come out on ICO are much and most of them promise loads of things that actually rope in investors but then keeping to that or those promises are always the challenge so i prefer to buy tokens or coins after ICO when they are in the market.

[Emilyp]

It's true that you can buy almost every token immediately after ICO on Decentralized exchanges at a price lower than the ICO but if there is a project which you genuinely support and wish to be successful, the only way to support those projects is investing in their ICO.

[metalice]

Nobody can answer this perfectly. It all depends on how well the product is gonna do, and how experienced the team behind is. During ICO, you get a lot more tokens though but it might cost lesser than initial price in the future.

[rasp]

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.

Many ICOs provide bonuses like +10-15-20% discount for traders who decided to buy their coins in certain periods of time.
Moreover, the number of tokens allocated to bounty program generally does not exceed around 5%, so I don't think the "agiotage" created by bounty hunters substantially affects the price of the token.

In these days under the market downtrend, ICO investments may not be profitable. But under the normal conditions, investments on good ICOs can create a huge return. Real problem is finding a good ICO. Need to do some hard research before invest on any ICO.

[bornMercurial]

in my mind, you can gain many benefits from buying in  Ico because the price is low or cheap but the risks are higher and it is also difficult to say whether it can succeed or grow. and you also have to do research or analyze in finding good  Ico. and later you will get a profit that becomes a factor in finding success

[debianbro]

In ICO it is worth investing because there is a bonus there.  You can get more coins at a price lower than the price on the market.

[chokomenia]

Some ico are good buy at ico while other are good buy at exchanges, for me any ico that has huge bonus, I will wait for exchange but any ico that has no bonus and it is a strong project then I will look to buy at the ico.
