why some ico failed

[Jonsnowstark]

Icos failed because:

They lack research
They dont have a viable project
They have poor marketing. They dont hire the people who can tell the world about their project.
They don't attract people. Maybe their project is just not as enticing as the other ones. People don't want to invest into something worthless.
They lack preparation before launching their ico.

have being studying some ico this year they are failing , what are the causes of there failure

some ico fails because their platform is common, or maybe it is already launched and the latest is just a copy cat. their goal is not enough for the investors interest. and also, because of lots and lots of ico, the investors divided their capital to invest on any their desired ico, that's why some of ico's failed to gather more investors.

[raiderking96]

from some failed projects that I see, there are several factors that make the project a failure:
1. Inexperienced Management Team
2. Project prospects are less clear
3. Less project appeal
4. Bad roadmaps and whitepapers
5. Less promotion team performance, or minimal idea to create a promotional program.
 
I think that's the cause, maybe someone wants to correct or add from my opinion this.

not some but, a lot of ICO failed in this year,,
because there is too many ICO coming in the bear season,
so, investors don't have any convidence to make any contributions because of the bear markets situations
except they 100% believe with the project
thank you

There are a lot of factors that contributes to an ICOs success or failure. One of the reason might be the project itself whether its an original concept or not. Original or unique project usually become successful. The people behind the project is also one of the major factor. When they are experienced and knowledgable, the ICO might be successful.

Not sure what type of answer you expect to get from this it's like asking why do some businesses fail or why do some cars break down? There's 101 different answers all of which will be guesses

[poundy29]

Actually some ICOs failed due to there Non unite and less efficient team, when the marketing strategy is low, there's no possible way to raise the required cap, hence they'll rather stop the project and refund.

[funchiestz]

In fact, some projects that can come up to very good levels unfortunately do not reach their potential due to the poor environment and ICO bans applied in some countries. Or they are investing less than they can afford.

[Harriti]

There are many reasons why the ICO failed. The launch of the ICO project is not revolutionary and has a clear purpose, potentially leading to the inability to attract a large amount of capital through Token sale rounds, leading to an ICO project not achieving a soft cap as well as the hard cap, affect a lot of investors. ICO selection should be careful to find potential ICOs.

Few reason that's on my head:

• Bad Timing
• Project is already a copy cat
• Poor PR and marketing
• Whitepaper and roadmaps are not clear enough
• Too good to be true project

Of course if the people behind are really just wanted to pull a scam, obviously it will failed when the first sign are noticed by investors and they have a right time defending it, specially in this forum.[/list][/list][/list]

I think the cause of ico failed is the product that does not make sense of us, the mission vision is not good and the price is not logical. Many ico entrepreneurs have less innovative products, as their investors prefer products that are in accordance with current technology to participant in investment, this certainly makes the main factor of investors in choosing ico. If ico does not meet the current technology, it will be very difficult to make the ico successful, and the team in the ico project development has good criteria that can make the ico project a success.

[FreeOxen]

One common reason that seems to be coming up recently is the one of a scam project.

So many projects are being set up by slick looking teams with the intention to scam the investor. Too many times the founders have cut and run, taking the money fomr the ICO. So that is one reason why some ICOs failed.

[Flayme]

ICOs failed! This was happened because of the poor composition or the project group developers (team behind the project ) was didn't do their obligations and responsibilities very well. Sometime miss communications with their investors in one of the reason why ICO's failed because they didn't collect enough funds to run the project or to launch their project. Because of the poor negotiations of the team on the people they missout more opportunities.

[geyayy]

There are various reasons that may cause an ICO to fail and these are in which I have encountered.

1. Bounty Manager/ICO admin are not active all the time which causes the ICO to become unsupervised.
2. The project is not worth investing and therefore it is really hard to reach even the soft cap.
3. Selection of campaign platforms. Campaigns are in a sense adverts and therefore it should be conducted in a crowded environment and some ICO just doesn't have the quality to make these adverts attractive to the piblic.

[JulkaEsya]

The main reason for unsuccessful campaigns is the lack of demand for the product offered by this campaign. There are many other factors that influence the success of bounty campaigns, and promotion of PR is also very important! In the world of the Internet and media, it is necessary to explain correctly why users need new technologies and development will not stand still and success will come with it. There is only the technical side of this issue and in many ways it depends on the competence of the team!

Failing was a normal to those starting and i think the some and normalreason why they fail was lack of products, lack of research, strategy, man power or lack of knowledge in the project, planing, brainstorming or idea so that they are failing because if you have this all a best strategy best marketing i don't think that they are failing.

I think the main reason some icos falling because people lack of doubt because some icos are scamms and the investor afraid to invest and also icos falling affected  of the crisis of the cryptocurrency value until now are covering in the market place their value.

some ICOs that fail are usually lack of confidence in the ico and unknown to many people, therefore promotion of ico is very important to increase the number of investors interested in the ico.

not only that, aspects of the platform must be clear and the projects implemented have an interesting advantage that has been described in whitepaper

if it is then the sale did not reach the soft cap then the ico cannot be continued because the funds needed to run the project did not reach the minimum required

that's some of the factors that affect why ico can fail

[AirFlame]

There are many reasons for failure.

Although sometimes it's just a scam, most of the time, they just set a goal that is far too ambitious.

Sometimes, a team is disbanded for some reasons and they can't carry on working ion the project.

Sometimes, they can't set budget properly.

But yeah, most of them becomes a scam because most of the time because all the problems that can't be solved are usually seen before the ICO.

[dollarneed]

Usually, they didn't reach the soft cap I believe it's due to the concept of the product that they're offering not attract investors, a project must have an innovative purpose nowadays investors are smart in choosing whether the project can them benefit or not. The other reasons they don't have a solid team and enough budget to promote the project, having a good team is a key here and big promotion can make ICO achieve the minimum target of the soft cap .
