What happens to all ICO when they bump the exchange?

[noblex]

Hello, what are the average behaviour which ICOs tends to follow when they come out to the market?

This is what I saw so far:

• Big ICOs which reach or get close to the hard cap: initial pump, then slow dump to ICO price or less
• Small ICOs: massive 99% dump at the very beginning moment, resulting usually in project death

Should the market opening price reflect the ICO price?

What did you experienced?

Due to current market conditions, almost all the ICOs fail after listing on the exchange. Small project coins ICO price dumped 5x-10x after listing. It seems now investors not interesting to buy any coin at this moment. I'm expecting this will change when the market turn to bullish.

It seems the current bearish trend won't come to an end for months if not years, as the forecasts say..
Volume is also way down the average.. I am a bit worried

You have made good observations in respect of how most ICOs behave. It is just that some times, the small ones still survive and there is eventual pump in their prices. Although they may later dump again.

Once the ICO is finish they list on an exchange for investors. The price pumps during the very first few minutes only because there is nothing in the orderbook.

Investors dump the coins at pre sale or pre ico price but the coin will recover a few weeks after (if it's a good project, I think). This is what I experienced in the last two ICOs I monitored.

I have mostly experienced the second option where the coin is initially pumped and then dumped 99% and then the project dies and you become a bag holder as those coins are not of any worth. Most devs used to do this in past in case of minable coins where there was an initial mine of more than 100 million coins and when the coin was listed on an exchange then the coin would die as they used to dump all the premine after getting listed on the exchange.

I now have several tokens for small to medium size ICO (10 to 40 M $ raised in the ICO phase) and I am not sure weather to hold all the token for a long term profit or sell some of them trying to lose less as possible and maybe buy again after the dump..
What would you do?

Some ICOs especially big once get sold out in private sales, pre sales and have white lists which involve even KYC to prevent investors from other countries from participating... this creates high demand fro the ICO once it hits the exchange. My understanding is in the initial stage, private investors and whales sell the Coins at a higher price to the willing public but as time goes on the price slowly corrects when the tokens reach new hands.

It would be better if you diversify your investment if you feel it like going to burst like a bubble but a dump and buy strategy will work out in order for you to be able gain a good profit with lowest percentage of losing. It's up to you now to decide whether you will follow what i have just told you.

Based on my observations, if an ICO hits hard cap (or comes close), then it is very likely that people from excluded countries will have enough buying  strength to give the price a little bump when it hits the exchange/s.  However, when several percent of the tokens/coins are distributed as bounty, then many are dumped immediately, causing the price dip, simply due to the volume being offloaded.

For small ICOs that don't come close to hard cap, the same dip happens from the bounty dumping, but there may not be the same level of interest from excluded countries, so the bump isn't there to start with.

I bought coins of Red Lanterns and I decide - if I believe in this project and give money for them - I will try help them earn more money for both)

[Murloc]

On my experience the most hyped ICOs are mor likely to get pumped right after the ICO if they get a good listings and then the price will go down aafter some time. If the ICO is small it doesn't mean that it will be dumped. Low cap ICOs without free bomuses is a real treasure for investors. Even if the coin is getting down it doesn't mean that the project is dead. Devs are gathering money not to pump the coin for you, they are willing to make a project and if the coin is at a low price before the release of the project it doesn't mean anything.

Remember if the pre-sale participant gets more discount and that means if the price will be stay on the ico price and then they sitting on a lot of profit caused by they are joining in the pre-sale. It makes the market needs to search the suitable price that has been generating by the total discount from the ico sale itself.

In general, most of the ICO project is hype, so when they open, is the highest price, then can present a gradual decline, that is why I am not willing to invest ICO, most of the ICO is bubble.

when new altcoin bumped int o coin exchanges there would be an adjustments for it's price value.
I supposed to think that half of them the price will become higher in coin exchange and half of them decreases due to the effectiveness of the project.
If the project is highly in demand then that's the good reason why prices should go higher otherwise the free crypto market will decide every altcoin's fate.

some ICOs are having their prices declined due to investors are already getting enough profits but the crypto price is indeed unpredictable because nobody would know when will the price Wil increase or decrease.
But most of the time, after ICO and they bumped into coin exchanges, they will soon rely on it's marketing and development team because the effectiveness of the project is the most basis on the price value.
