ICOs in 2018 not same as 2017.

ICO will be dead until ETH can get back to 600-800 range. before that- forget about it and wait until greedy projects start to lower their hardcaps to something "startup" reasonable

[kabum21]

That is one of the options that many people use, but we also have to take into account that many ICOs offer bonuses for early adopters so you have to contrast the profit and loss you can generate for that late investment, as the goal here is always to try to maximize the ratio profit/investment

I also hope that the market for ICO projects is changing at this time and some projects will really understand that they are putting too high amounts for the creation and development of the project. But I do not think that everything depends only on the price of ETH, I believe that everything depends on when the market recovers and the overall market situation improves.

investing in ico at the start of the sale I don't think it's a good choice even though the bonus is bigger but I'm not sure the ico will succeed in the market. need more analysis to be able to see the ico is indeed good and you can only invest in the beginning with a large bonus that you will receive.

I think that the best alternatives to bitcoins are ARDOR (ARDR) - A virtual ecosystem developed on a blockbuster, offering users convenient ways to scale the network. In fact, this is the second generation of Nxt, but more perfect: ARDOR provides the ability to create your own child chains within the system. Through this platform, any company can create their own coins and receive a commission for their transfer. And transactions within the network are almost instantaneous: it usually takes 60 seconds, or even less.

we have to invest in those ICO which have a high potential in the future the product of them also contain some value if the product is better then the price of it will go higher. If you will invest in high potential coins and ICO then you will get a good profit.

Well i am also 100% sure that the ICO last year is really better than the ico now, i remember that there are so many ico that became very successful last year but this year there are also successful but they are not reaching there hardcap anymore.

[EL-NIDO]

This year 2018 was not a nice year for the ICOs. The market was always down and many participants were disappointed and left cryptocurrencies. After a long time ago it is still bearish season.

This year is completely different for ICO than 2017. A lot of ICO has a problem with softcap gathering. This effect is influenced by falling currency prices and an increasing number of revealed scams. This causes investors to become more cautious and look more closely at the projects they want to invest in.

[kayhilabilele]

It is a fact that in 2018 most of the ICO are unprofitable but investing in a legitimate and trusted ICO will really make us gain a double gain. we must invest too cautiously because too many projects look good changed in fraudulent projects. I also experience that, some coins promise the first time the coin gets into the trading site will be the price of ico.

[walid_holligans]

Recently, it was not profitable to buy coins at the ico stage. But if everyone waits for the coin to leave for the stock exchange and then only to buy, then there will be nothing to buy. Projects that do not collect the right amount of funds at the stage of sale do not go to the stock exchanges at all.

[ForTheAzerot]

It is clear that this year is bad, and it is bad not only for ICO but also for all cryptocurrencies. Prices have fallen several times and now the market is clearly stagnant.

[iwah]

Let's say this year has not been a good year for cryptos in general and hence it is affecting everything activities in cryptos space, i think we all need to have some faith and be patience for the market to recover again.

[soleil.kristalle.974]

Its because you invested in lousy projects, dont get scammed by the WP of ICO, do your research before investing. Too many $hit projects out there they dont need millions to launch their projects but they still priced their tokens super high which will definitely fall below ICO price.

[vanessa.l81]

Yes, nowadays there are less perspective project than in 2017, but you can buy stable altcoins that will make you a profit after accepting ETF

[timmmers]

ICOs in 2017 were profitable because bull run caused that everything was so exciting, great, blockchain super technology.
In 2018 we realized it was not so great.

[vike]

Now there are fewer scam projects on the market but at the same time there are a lot of projects that do not begin to move, do not cope with the current situation on the market and simply go away leaving their investors with nothing  

[TitsiCoiner]

The ICO market crashed this year. All coins were issued and hit the stock exchange, fell dozens of times. The people’s interest was gone and they don’t want to buy even at such low prices coins on the stock exchanges.

[marie_thomas_654]

Any investor who has spent a considerable amount of time chasing ICOs and trading Cryptocurrencies knows this a sound strategy to follow, neglecting those few projects that their prices never dipped. But the question/problem that arises if everyone was to wait for the launch and the DIP to buy at corrected prices, then who will buy during the ICO?

[ouraga222]

People have learned his lesson from all that scams.Still there is hundreds of millions doellars of virtual trash past ico on market new one is coming one by one
