Now that ICOs are so tainted with suspicion and scams what alternatives are out there for investors?
Do you think ICOs are still as innovative and as profitable as they were a couple of years ago?
Keeping the current market in mind is it worth taking risks investing via ICOs?

Everyone hopes to correct the situation with the ICO. As soon as the market starts to level out, then investments in ICO will become profitable again. Although I would not count on the same profit as in 2017. Also interested in alternatives to the existing ICO. But nothing comes to mind. It remains only to participate in the ICO. But it is necessary to choose projects with even greater care and caution.

The market started to recover, and maybe ICOs will be profitable again.
However if you invest, you should pick your ICOs correctly, with lots of research on the project!

So for those what want to invest in crypto related businesses what investment methods are out there or would you suggest?

So far, there are no other alternatives to ICO. If you want to invest your money in something, and not to fear for them as if you invested in ICO projects, then buy coins such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, NEO, Litcoin and others.

There're some new alternative investments you can value. Some new projects are offering Smartphone Apps that generates token and have no ico or try to create a second offer. There are several altcoins that can be valued better than others if they offer Pow&Pos. So you've some alternatives on the table.

I do not know what is on the minds of people who make negative news so many investors who do not want to invest in ico, it is very harmful to many people. for now it seems ico is still quite innovative, and when we jump into the world of crypto I think we should be ready to accept any market risks we always face.

I think that soon everything will change and there will not be so many fraudulent ISO, the regulators paid attention to it and I am sure that they will try to do without a risky way of investment. At least, that the project team after collecting money the next day did not buy themselves lambo and the island, and work on the project. Simply, no one can look into the future and understand whether the project will be in demand in the market or not, even if its team is working on 24/7.

We do not know what happens in the future. We can only speculate when investing in ICO. Do not take the high risk of relying on luck. Take decisions with risks that are quite acceptable when the ICO is a scam.

What I am observing is that it is happening rarely nowadays for an ICO to reach the hard cap. There are no fresh money coming in the ecosystem the last months and whales are keeping their positions I guess. The flipping en masse days are over I think.

Saw this while browsing through forums, so I guess thats a good reason to stay away from every ICO if you are looking to invest a good amount. I was myself searching for various kinds of projects to invest since I have some BTC savings held from my current mining project - I thought I would just invest it somewhere so I can exchange it back to BTC once it reaches a good price. I have noticed that there is very little information about the coin/token (technically) on the description or even on their "whitepaper". Most of these ICO's just add up buzzwords in their description so that people will get the idea that it is something big. Popular words include AI, BIG DATA etc.. Judging by this suspicious nature of most 'ICO's i refrained from investing my BTC, and decided just to HODL.

ICo in gernal are a beautiful innovation in world the world of bussines. Ico enables star ups to rise money in different way other than private placement . And on the other side ICo allows regular people to invest. Yes it has its drawbacks but that just means that it needs to evolve.

One of the alternative you can do is to stick with known altcoins that is solid and have a good track record. Coinmarketcap is also a good guide to help you choose the right altcoin that is good for you.

I think ICOs still have innovation and have very high interest. Just imagine if the ICO they built has a very good project and very useful for the future and can develop a project based on cryptocurrency then it is certain that many will want to buy and become some investment. if you have trouble finding ICO you can go to https://icobench.com/icos from there you can get some good information about ICO.

If you don't want to invest on ICOs then invest on the altcoins then the chance for scam is zero but still it is risky because we can't say all the altcoins will rise like bitcoin so invest on your own risk.Or just buy bitcoin and wait for the profits to come in the long term or start altcoin mining the investment needed for that is less than the bitcoin mining.

The alternative is IPO, but in this case you will have to comply with all laws, obtain the necessary licenses, pay taxes, etc.

Definetly,at this moment i have acertain doubts mostly come out ICO now,and thats your statement is true that mostly come out ICO project now is tainted with suspicion and scam,because i'm one experience and victimize of some hoax ICO,they said that its rocketting but in the end its turn to lossing,but anyway i believe that more ICO is still innovative and profitable,so until now i still finding and joining some development project thats for me is suitable.
