This is like asking why investors invest in IPOs - its because they believe in the company and its idea and also they believe that the team can deliver what they've promised.

ICO investment is the easy to make good earning in future. Because Bitcoin and altcoins hype are depends on the demand and supply of current trend. But ICO will be going to peak in after listed in exchanges so little high risk in this platform. This year many potential ICOs are comes in the market because I read some projects whitepaper, road map it is really interesting I think ICO investment is the good profitable investment.

My primary goal in investing in ICOs was to research and understand how this new market is working now. It is overhyped and it looks like a bubble.
Nonetheless, the blockchain technology and decentralized ecosystems are likely to change how our societies operate

The whitepaper for me is important then plus the team. If the team has reputable members who have done very well in the past in their field, I get interested. Also, if they say they want to list in a big exchange too but this last point can be a deceit.

The most attracted part of ICO is the bonus stage! The investor will surely attract to this kind of investment because of hug profit that will be rewarded to early investors. Let say, someone participated in ICO and have earn 50% bonus.. This scheme was the most amazing part of every ICO.

I think at the initial stage ICO was booming and those who came in early made much profit, this triggered new entrant upon hearing the success stories came onboard. Despite the risk, a lot still thinks they make something good out of ICO than normal investment on average banks.

Cause it is a great way to make some quick money even in such a bearish market if you are lucky enough to be a part of some hottest ICO projects (HyperQuant is absolutely one of them). Compared with conventional ways of investment, the entry threshold is much more lower which means that you can still invest even if you are not some kind of accredited investors in some country. If you ask what is the most important reason that people choose this kind of investment way, i would say it is its extremely high ROI, for example, those who invest in ETH, NEO and IOTA in the early stage have earned hundreds or even thousands of their initial investment amount.

Obvious reasons are two:  they just want to earn some money, or they want to support the ideas that the particular project has and they like it. Some projects are good only for that.

A Crypto investor takes a look at a project, sees it potential and value preposition and then goes ahead to invest his money with the soul aim of making profit as he can speculate the project to make profit. In the ICO - Initial Coin Offering stage, investors gets the opportunity to buy cheaper than projected with the hope that they can recover their investment and make more profit. It is believed that the earlier you join a project, the better.

This however is a risk as the case may be with any other kind of investment.

Personally, I have participated in ICOs because of the uniqueness of a project as well as the low marketcap and price that's usually being offered during an ICO.

The most important thing to do is to do your own research, additionally to watching available researches of projects you are looking into! Check for information regarding the company, team (experience), community, developers, and if the team attends events to spread their word and performs good marketing efforts.

Personally, I enjoy watching Scrembo Paul, you can find one of his ICO reviews here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCVBYBssLS8

currently investing in ICO has a very big risk and almost the same as gambling we can lose all our investment without us playing. therefore I prefer gambling in comparison with investing in ICO

Well, at first people contributed to ICOs because the profit returns of the coins when trading starts was very high, but now due to the current situation of market, interest of people in ICOs have greatly reduced. This will in a way make people who are really interested in the project join and not just for an overnight gains.

Nowadays ! ICO investments are very risky. Most of them are most promising at first but lately it will turn ed out to be a scammed ICO. So, before investing in ICO projects, it is better to check first it's background and have an updates in their telegram channels. In order for you, not to lose your funds if you invested.

As an investor,investing on ICO projects is a good option to be done with. Tokens on ICOs are much cheaper than it is listed on crypto exchange/s and most of the time, the ICO tokens are discounted that's why crypto users are choosing ICO than listed tokens to invest their money with. But before investing, better make sure that the ICO you are going to invest is legit and have the potential to be successful in the future.

Investing in ICOs gives you the chance of extremely high gains.  However with ICOs, the risk of losing your money is immense.  For every spectacular project there are 90 others that will fail miserably or end up  being total scams.  I would only use a very small portion of my funds to invest in these type of high risk investments which are essentially gambling.
