HOW TO MAKE ICO's PROFITABLE AGAIN

[AutisticKid007]

The solution is very simple, stop investing in ICOs who have separate lock up period for VCs and private investors and there are quite a few ICO available on the market that doesn't treat their investors in such unfair manner. Moreover, you need to acknowledge the fact that even if the lock up period is not there, a lot of investors can buy huge amount of tokens and manipulate the market later on.

Currently, it is difficult for new projects. Since the price of ether and bitcoin is constantly decreasing. The cost of tokens is also reduced. That depends on the success of the project. Because of this course you need more time to study the project. And its social significance for the world.

I always knew the high influx of hedge funds, capital groups and those greedy big pockets guys would be harm the ICO space space in the long run and it has started already. After the crypto and ico boom in 2017, VCs became a big part of the game and ICO projects started getting greedy. They sell majority of the token allocations to VCs and then do a shitty proof of love campaign or airdrop the little percentage left to the crowd. VCs even offer OTC deals for ico tokens at 2x - 5x the price they bought it. This has to stop. I've stopped investing in ICOs for a while now.

The lock-up period is fundamental yet will put off numerous financial specialists from purchasing in mass and undertaking supervisors will need to pick up the greatest number of bitcoins/ethereum as they can get their hands on. Great to see that pre-deal financial specialists are being perceived as in charge of dumping, for the most part, abundance seekers get erroneously faulted.

Projects must fulfill all their promises, especially those that collect a lot of money and then do nothing. Projects should return investor confidence.

i think these things had its time when they were extremely profitable but i think there good ico's out there they are few but they are there you just need to be selective about that.

As a small investor like me, we cant compete to big whales investors. They can have the full benefit on it when it hits on the exchange. My only option is to buy the ico tokens I love on the exchange. It is expected that the price of the tokens when it hits on the exchange will surely have a big dump. That is the right time to buy.

ICO market should be regulated like IPO,  so many public investor will feel more safe.  Now there are some ICO turn in to fraud because no any regulation, and from this case many investor will avoid ICO and chooce other kind of investment like IPO that has regulation.

Lately, we've seen that investing in crowdsales are no longer profitable due to ICO's favouring VCs and private investors. These set of investors receive heavy bonuses with almost no lock up periods at all. Consequently, they dump these tokens at listing on exchanges and crash the prices below the ICO price, resulting in big losses for smaller investors. As a result, it's difficult to make 5x - 10x from ICO price anymore.

As an investor, one of the best ways to curb this and make ICO's more profitable again is to focus on crowdsales. You have to make a conscious decision to invest in only projects with good lock up periods for VC's and private investors. These lock up periods is what guarantees that the guys with big bonuses don't dump on us. A project with good and experienced team, working product, good token metrics, use case, and considerable lock up periods for VCs and private investor should ordinarily do well in the market.

How about bounty hunters ? Do you suggest the team to lock up token for hunters too ? Most hunters need their reward can be sold as soon as possible.
They should focus about their product development after crowdsale, so the token price will be back at least at ICO price quickly.

It is very difficult to get profit from ICO at the moment, compounded by many of the ICO scams that make beginners become deceived and lose their assets. research and selection of an ICO is the most important thing, whether we will get profit or loss later.

To make ICOs more profitable, it is necessary to attract more investors. It shall occur on a general wave of growth of the cryptoforeign exchange market.

[Sayan Sengupta]

Depends upon who the VCs/Pvt Investors are. It is quite unusual if their sole motive of putting in money is not the product/technology, but a short term outlook at dumping. All such projects must be kept a safe distance from. Else, there is a defined path of exit for the initial set that is agreed upon with the Founders. In case the trusted Investors/VCs are putting their money in, with a decent lock in period, it should give the retail investors more confidence as more initial collection means better execution on the product and service penetration leading to a steady growth in the token prices.

to make the ico's profitable is that we have to avoid the scam ico. by avoiding the ico that scam, of course, we can get the big results from ico that we follow, and that will be more profitable. but we know that in choosing a legit ico is a difficult thing, so we must be careful in doing so.

Putting resources into ICO, by and large, is a long haul speculation. We can not expect for a fast benefit after ICO when posting on trades. They bolted up the token to guarantee their cost. Also, beyond any doubt enough, the token's cost will rely upon their advancement of the undertaking and the capital reserve behind them.

[cryptolovers990]

It is believed that investing in ICO will require a long time to gain profit from it. At the making point of any project need so many resources to make it successful. In this case, locking up is an option to prevent investor's buying in large amount.

Well, I guess the time is not right now. The whole cryto market is in a down stream right now. That's why, ICOs are not making profit. But dont be too much ambitious at the same time. Put your ambition to get 2x profit.

[SmallFish]

ICO is a tricky business and is a long term commitment. Token’s price is appended with the development of the process and the amount of capital behind them. So you have to wait to have profit.

[CuteSeal]

From my experience I will tell you to not to have very high expectations. Because this depends on so many things. Market condition is not that good now.

[FIREBALL24]

From my experience I will tell you to not to have very high expectations. Because this depends on so many things. Market condition is not that good now.

In, able to be profitable again we need to wait the market explodes and explore more potential projects they produce, ICO's was depended the fluctuation of market and the run in technology.
