Is there a possibility of a scam if my tokens have no value for 2 months? I already have the tokens for 2.5 months and they keep telling us that listing is a laborious thing to do. Is that a normal thing to happen when your coin doesn't have any value for 2.5 months now?
be patient, many ICO's are have trouble to get listed in big exchange especially, they have to pay a lot of money to listing in exchanger..

some developer has a long term plan for their token, they dont usually enter their token on any exchanger so the value of the altcoin will not decrease. but if they dont have any updates regarding the project, it might be scam.

Which tokens are you referring to? I'll look into this.

Yes, you are right
I want the token they mean. if what they say is a scam i want to know. many of them use tokens. of course not all tokens they deem a scam. they must provide the actual information.

Yes it is, the scam was happen when they did not paid you but they paid you so it is not a scam.  I experience that they give token for almost 5 months and I didn't notice it by too long.  I also have some token that are no market because it is their strategy and i think you can easily sell your token at highest price when you go at the 1st day when they sell the token on market or it is available on market.

Some devs prefer to work on the actual product instead of shill sdvertising and going for big exchange listings.  Patience wil pay off on this one.  sometimes it takes half a year or so to gain real value.

You have to share the coin name for us to advise. If the developer didn’t abandon the project, I don’t think we can say it is scam atm.

In any case, 2.5 month is not a long period for a new coin to be listed to an exchange or development to push the price up.

It depends because there are reasons why some tokens are not getting listed on any exchanges. Some developers or creators of token or coins dont want to list it immediately so that people cannot dump the token yet or there are no exchanges that wants to list it because there are only low demand on that coins so listing it is not worth it or it may be a scam and the project is fake and no real future development for that token. You will know if this is a scam if developers dont answer to questions that is being asked to them or no updates at all.

There is too little information to understand about the state of the art. There were such projects that go to the market at low market positions, and receive prices below ICO. But I do not think this is a fraud, just a thoughtless marketing, and the opportunity to redeem your shares at a lower price policy. I wanted the author to write about a specific example of deception, what kind of project, what attachments, what losses.

You didn't say what kind of project you are talking about. I know a couple of projects that collected money for ICO, then for a long time, they developed their own platform, and only after six months they listed the tokens to investors. Sometimes the way from investing money to getting tokens is quite long.
But maybe you fell into the hands of scammers and you have been fooled. Specify which project, then you will get a more accurate answer to your question.

in holding tokens it must be patient for exchange, 2.5 months is still very reasonable for a token waiting for the market, as long as the team is still moving it is marked hope still exist

actually about token,it's seems undefinied. even that free token from airdrop.
remember TME ? Timerium ?. and after token swap to elixir , some dust changed to gem.
for now, i also have many many token with zero value,but, if they/team say keep calm.
so what we can do ?

They say that patience is a virtue, then I believed on that. I also have a token recently I am holding now, they keep saying that they are on alpha release so we need to wait more time for it. For 2.5 months is too early to declare that is a scam, you need to wait more months for what have done now, we don't have anything to do is just wait. Speaking of airdrop I don't expect on it.

It happens that there are very non-responsible managers and team, and sometimes the project owners themselves are paying off, so you can understand why such delays or no payment!

well. there are such cases that teams prefer to focus and spend their money on product and developments instead of getting listed their token. so it may not be a scam. you should check the team and search them more to be sure that they are scam or not.

Exactly, most specially when getting listed in an exchange cost huge amount of Bitcoin. That's where most of the ICO team get tempted to scam their investors or fake failure their project.
Usually 2 months would be considered a long wait for a certain coin to be listed on exchange, if the team is passionate with their project.

When reading your post, I am sure you have joined the airdrop and received a Token from them, right? Most of the time, I can assert that all airdrop campaigns have the general purpose of collecting personal information, the crypto most of which have no value and are not indexed on trading floors unless it's an airdrop campaign for bounty members!

For sure it means the management did not have a clear listing plan and definitely wrongly timed their moves. But it doesn't necessarily mean that it's a scam...

That doesn't obviously mean that it's scam, but there is big chance that it's. More obviously that it's weak project and you need to get rid of their tokens so fast as you can. Analyse deeper, if this project realy have a future.

2.5 months is not a quite long time for tokens to not get listed. There were cases that some tokens had made their customers to wait for more than 6 months and at the end they delivered a good ROI.

Getting listed on a decentralised exchange with great repute takes a lot of preparation and time. It might be possible this particular project didn't plan ahead or haven't satisfied some required criterias. Be patient and see how it unfolds. It is too early to call them scam. Let their roadmap also guide you.
