Doing ICO as solo developer

[andrejuseu]

Hello,

I'm new in the forum, but following blockchain since 2013.

So my question is, are you ever seen any solo developer ICO's? Or the big team is more attractive for investors?

Sure the big team is needed if you wanna build big company, but you can start as a solo developer. I think you have very low chances to attract investment if you will be alone and will have no product, but you can try! May be someone will like you idea and you will get some investments.
Look at Elastic. This project is made by 2 people and now they are on the stage of testnet. They did it, so you also can! May the force be with you!

It is a little strange, in my opinion. One person can't be engaged in everything. He obzatelno needs the professional team capable to turn his project into the successful company

someone can not stand alone without the help of others, what you think so that you ask the unreasonable thing, I also never feel a newbie but your question is very silly, better ask more meaningful for your future

You can do it solo as you preferred but to expect you would still end up on failing because you wont able to develop or create a proper or well organized thing. More heads and hands is better than one which you should really need a team where would able to play or do make their own job on there own considering there are lots of things to be considered when we do organized our own project. Developing, Marketing and other stuffs. You cant done those things on your own.

Do you really think creating an ICO is al about the developer itself?

You may create it but you will never be able to execute the idea of it with the plan in the real world. You will have to have a team (big one) for different stages of its development. You may need advisory bodies, directors, face of your ICO that is founder and co-founder, financial bodies, legal persons, analysts and many more. These all people when come together, they can create whole ICO but more successful and legit one. In short you will need team surely and you can not make it alone, doesn't matter how hard you try it.

Exactly mate, OP you must have a team to build and ICO because it is not easy to accommodate all your with your project. If you force your self to do alone in that project may be the outcome was a failed project. A team is needed aside from you as a developer or a founder of your project, went smooth working and building up your project if you have a complete to work on it.

Thank you for answers.

As a developer, I will disagree with most of your posts about product delivery, there's communities of indie developers, solo creators, not multi-million ones, but successful.

So my question was just about investors reaction to team size. I'm in no way interested in creating ICO (maybe then extra money will be at hand), the funds for starting is too big, not taking in to count marketing costs (after facebooks ads ban).

That's an unusual question. The only thing I could find online on this matter is the story of the first ico created back in 2013 by J.R. Willett. This guy is the only one creator of ico and I couldn't find anything about any team that was working with him on Mastercoin project, but I still find it rather suspicious. Of course, there're often leaders and people might not know anyone apart from this person related to the project, but I doesn't mean that there were no other developers helping him with all that stuff. Nowadays any ICO needs not only a strong team with multiple people, but also a number of advisers on the project, so I think going solo is not the best idea.

It's not about attracting investors, it is not the problem. The problem is you can't do everything alone because there are only 24 hours per day.
Alone you can't do more than 25% of what is needed

Yes I have seen a solo dev successfully execute his ICO. But this move is too risky for investors to bear. Should anything happen to the developer, the project stands at halt. This is why a good and big team is best for any project.

I have ever seen solo developer was coin ico but it looks like not an ico. You can try to see that byteball and it has created by a solo developer. But the developer is really fair in my opinion. It's first DAG system. Big or not as long as it's competitive and reliable and it will become very attractive to the investors.

It's possible but the project will be small or slow. The developer will have to hire others to help with marketing otherwise s/he is wasting time doing a project that no-one will know about. I prefer bigger teams, but have also invested in solo developer projects before.

I haven't seen a team that runs an ICO only by himself that's quite hard and a lot of thing to do. And with the bigger team, it's not only how huge the team is but how huge the capacity of that team.

As a developer, I will disagree with most of your posts about product delivery, there's communities of indie developers, solo creators, not multi-million ones, but successful.

For an ICO it's different by developing something like a software or program.
