Reasons why ICOs fail

[cryptajunkie]

The majority of'em is scam, pure plain and simple. Actually, they succeed, not fail - 'coz ICO hosts aim to rob you bald, and many of them are really good at it. It's really hard to find a decent product among all this garbage and gibberish, yet I've managed to do so. If you're intrested, check out Cryptics - I think it's at least worth taking a look at it

Some ICO fails because the project they want to build is no use case or real value or the project doesn't require blockchain or the project already have a leading competitor on the centralized platform. It will be hard to build a decentralized social media that will replace Facebook or twitter.

[Orsen]

All projects fail because of the fact that once every project was successful and people believed in those and now people are simply afraid to invest thinking that this is a scam!

Often investors are not paying attention to good projects, so we should try to attract their attention. Now Ambit Mining is live so take a look.

 Technological issues: Many projects are failing because of technological issues like lack of security.

2. No unique Use case and lack of creativity:
The reality is, ICOs are not straightforward and with new ideas and concepts arising daily, you need to get noticed and that means coming up with some unique Use case
So, before a developer even attempts to launch an ICO or enter the crypto world, ask yourself: "What will make investors choose this particular ICO over a competitor’s ICO?"
I believe the list continues.

I think that's the main reason why ICOs fail.
There are so many alike projects on the horizon.
In Telegram groups people keep asking "What is the difference of your project with project XXX?". And in fact in most cases the difference is very small (like increasing speed of transactions to 5%).

Some ICOs fail bcz there is no value add or the real use case provided by the project. SO the project only tries to copy other multiple projects so that it can raise money.  Most of them are frauds. It's really hard to find a decent product among all this fraudsters. In short ICOs are unable to gather trust from the investors for the long term HOLDINg of tokens and thus there tokens get dumped post ICO

Reasons why are ICOs fails usually simialar, when team have  hide token sale,token metrics were different from what team were claimed and real product on ico is just useless

[alient86]

I believe that the reasons for the failure are hight competition, an unstable situation on the market, so there are not so many interested investors. In addition, now very many ICO want to use blockchain technology in any sphere, even in those sphere where this technology is not needed, hence the failure

[streampay]

I'd say since most of the cryptocurrency hype is down; not many investors are really interested in ICO's or (at the very least) cautious when trying to pick the right one.

Those are some facts why investors is not supporting this type of ico's, the team behind are shady and the project is worthless, its very important for real usage and the team development are for real, if a projects wants to be more successful and wanted to gather supports the team behind should provide updates and progress and what is the target goal  and how the implementations will succeed.

[matthewio]

A lot of factors do contribute to whether a project will succeed or fail.I believe community support and team expertise are paramount.A good product without enough community to rally round it will eventually fail.Same is also true if your product is shitty.

There are many reasons for the failure of ICO, but I think the reason for most of the ICO's failure is because their projects are completely unrelated to the blockchain.

[goffbar]

I think it's because there is too much ICO and it make Investor confuse. It will make ICO hard to get many investor and get success. Also there is too much SCAM ICO and it make doesn't trust ICO anymore.

[kokota181]

There are many reasons for the failure of ICO, but I think the reason for most of the ICO's failure is because their projects are completely unrelated to the blockchain. Many projects actually do not meet the conditions required by the ICO.

[RAMZA]

Yes, now everything is falling due to the low price of bitcoin ... We must wait a little, soon everything will stabilize.

[DahonPao]

The main problem is that developers do not want to do something useful and interesting,they want to make money on investors.

[mattcerna16]

Too much competition for the funding now.

[gghh111111]

There are many ICOs out there, but more than 50% of them fail.
From my analogy, could this be the reasons why ICOs fail?
1. Being too complicated:
If you want investors to favour your ICO, make sure they understand your coin offering. Be concise yet interesting, creative yet not too ‘techy’ and try to explain concepts from scratch. Of course, the detail you go into is likely to depend on your target audience.
2. No unique Use case and lack of creativity:
The reality is, ICOs are not straightforward and with new ideas and concepts arising daily, you need to get noticed and that means coming up with some unique Use case

ICOs is just a small stage of a company and nothing is stable during that stage.

Also IDEX is a graveyard for a lot of ICOS

maybe icos fail because they are scammers, there are a lot of such things now on the market, so i think that you should be careful
