Why are you surprised? Now they transfer or postpone every second ICO. This is due to the fact that in a severely fallen market, people do not want to invest, since the cost of Ethereum and bitcoin is very small.

Managers of ICO projects may decide to postponed their cryptocurrency projects because of certain major underlying key factors which include lack of financial resources, however the present down trend in the crypto might be one of the pending factors, the implication is that managers might decide to refund investors funds and fix another date for the ICO.

It depends, sometimes it can be a bad sign and sometimes it can be that just the paperwork is delayed and they need to wait for it, but as many people here in the forum we are noticing that many icos are failing because of the market, many do not want to invest in icos because they do not want to have to wait for a few years before seeing profits and the developers feeling this are delaying their projects waiting for the conditions of the market improve in the next months.

[Pologons]

many ICO are now putting off entering the market, for me it is an indicator that such ICO are unpromising.

[BertoloyBTC]

Maybe thats the reason behind ,postponing the ICOs ,because the market marks very negative price value, other ICOs who are already launched keel on extending, and others announced they stop the ICO and will continue later, this are happenning in many ICOs now , the reason maybe this market fall down which is worst.

[Thai19]

It's just like some ICO projects I know, they have extended the ICO's time for not calling for enough funds to run, so should be sympathetic to them. Because the Altcoin market is going down, and many investors have turned their backs on Altcoin. That is sad news for ICO projects.

[Barbaralehoa]

I suppose this is a smart decision. Because the price is low, the ICO will not be beneficial to the project. Good market up, many investors will join more and the ICO release will definitely make it easier

[restuibu]

at this time in my opinion it is a very reasonable action if many ico postpone their sales because right now the market is experiencing a major crisis that has an impact on ico a project

[criket]

I suppose this is a smart decision. Because the price is low, the ICO will not be beneficial to the project. Good market up, many investors will join more and the ICO release will definitely make it easier

actually by extending ico also has a negative impact on the project. although the reason for the crypto market is being bad and that can be understood by investors but it makes little doubt because the project will not run in accordance with the design that was made and analyzed by previous investors.

[ssuman86]

You can say when market is going down many ICO postpone their ICO one of them is bethereum also. They postpone their ICO because of when market going to down then sentiment also goes to negative and that will effect their collections.

[PurpleTulle]

Not necessarily.  It could be due to market instability sometimes, or maybe they were unable to meet up their road map.  I've heard of a number of ICOs that were postponed,  Modern chain for example did and only recently fixed a  new date,  but whatever the reason,  if the project has a good development team,  it is probably to ensure they provide better service.

      ICO were going to postpone or extending their campaign because of lack of investors , maybe the reason of this issues is the price declining of all cryptocurrencies. Some investors are prefer to buy existing altcoin which is running in the market rather than to buy in ICO .

[Wipro]

Many ICOs has been murdered by the market conditions but you should stay away from the ICO project doesn't jump in the listing side after the main sale has been over.
Please wait for sometime, if you invested on any project or participated in the campaign which ICO waiting to list. Before this year ends many new ICO we can see in exchange site.

[tiurminator]

Yeah, I think that is a good decision for the project.  It will be useless and only spending time and money to continue the project without a good respond from the market.  Of course bounty hunters didn't like this if the campaign already started because they will not get the reward.  I've join bounty like this, after a few weeks of hardworking they suspended the project.

[CLywaTeLb]

Oh, I participated in many bounty, which was postponed, extended, canceled. It began in January 2018. Now this is a usual occurrence.

[zxl912157]

The market is now falling so don't be surprised by everything that happens.
The logic is that if you buy a token at a price of 400 and then go down to 300 it might be better for you to HODL than STOPLOSS.

[67semih]

Absolutely yes. I think icos cancel their campaings because of the market conditions. They know that they cant sell enough tokens. So they will wait for a while.

[lrvjvt]

This is not absolute, but in many cases it is true. The image of an ICO team is very important. If this happens in the early days, it may lead to the failure of ICO. But there are also a small number of requirements for technical upgrades but this is rare.

[Enzos]

Almost all of the ICOs I participated in this year have been postponed. I think this is because the market is now in a very bad time. If these ICOs are now on the market, then waiting for them is a price collapse. So if they can wait for the bull market to go public, then this is the best for us.

[Thanasis]

Yes it is happening because of the bear run if they are going to launch their token at this time the chances of making profits and success from them is very less so most of the projects were postponed until the healthy market comes in.IN this time only we can see the scam projects who uses this time to steal all the money from investors.

[louie69]

Yes, I was able to participate with an ICO being extended for another 2 months wherein I believe the soft cap has not reached based on timeline. There are situations like this and I think it could be just normal nowadays probably because of the many ICO's emerging in the crypto market and investors were divided. As a result, it could hardly reached the target soft cap goal. I think there is also negative impact as to why some people do not invest in ICO anymore perhaps these investors could have been scammed from their previous ICO investment.

[Taufik blackspade team]

I can't judge whether postponing ICO is a good decision or not. In the first place, we can wait for the market situation to recover to regain investor confidence. On the other hand, there is a chance that the ICO will be abandoned. Everything has its own negative impact. As we all know, attracting investors is not an easy job. This strategy is actually like double edged swords. Instead of growing trust, it actually eliminates interest from investors.

[Ociwiw]

Funny.  Now almost every ICO is postponed or prolonged, and all refer to a negative market situation!

[iconoclast]

"Postponing ICO, a sign of negative market?"

No, a sign of a weak project. Good projects are still having no problem getting investment. It is weak projects that probably should not be funded in the first place that are struggling. If they are waiting for things to become like this time last year they can forget it. Those days are long gone and never coming back. If you project is struggling it is time to go back to the drawing board and come up with something more compelling for people to invest in.

You say: signs of an unhealthy market? It does not bother you that since the beginning of this year the market has been controlled by bears, and many projects postpone the date of the ICO, and those who are still trying to raise funds have a negative experience. I hope in the near future, the situation will improve.

Yes, when you hear that an ico has been postponed it is not that the teams are not ready but something has gone wrong with the marketing and the developers has sense negative impact on the marketing  of the project. Some also postpone ico because of the sentiment that has been created around the project. May be some one has studied the white paper and link out some information that are very vital about the project. I did not no about this profede but I know of many projects that has done that since last year and as at today there are no were to be find.

[hrunya102]

All projects want to make money, but it turns out that after the ICO, the price of the token is heavily dump now, so everyone is trying to postpone the ICO.

[DikkieD]

So many current ICO's only raise a fraction of what they envisioned when the started planning their project. Even highly successful ICO's still only get a little bit over their soft cap, and a handful reached their hard cap this year, and often mostly due to private investors. I think it is a normal reaction to a downwards market. Many people got rekt hard in January/February. I still have ICO's being at over 90% losses, with no real chance of getting back to ICO price anytime soon. I think many ICO's got way too much funding in those months....I mean, why the need for $30m or more to launch a blockchain project...totally unrealistic....a few millions is all you need if it is about building and growing a valid company. Instead, so many projects only show pics of them attaining events (and even parties etc) with almost no real updates on their product....this is a good thing, no start-up should get so much funding.....

[cryptoblue77]

As the market has been in downward trend continuously over the past six months or so, it has been difficult for new ICO projects to collect funds for their business, as investors are reluctant to invest in these projects considering the market situation. That's why, many ICOs have failed and many have postponed.

There's absolutely nothing happening in the crypto world that should come off to anyone as a surprise anymore, more like we've seen it all. Projects postponing their ICOs, extending their bounties, ICOs failing and investors getting refunds, etc. All these are a reflection of the condition of the market at the moment, a lot of people are laid back when it comes to investing in projects now. So, this informs why some projects postpone their ICO, as they're afraid they may not hit soft cap

[mel_smog]

All ICO should start cutting their appetites and hardcaps- regular startups do not need so much money to make a product

Market needs to wake up like it was a year ago before ICO boom

[disconnectme]

There is no need of starting an ICO if you won't raise any money from the investors, the number of projects postponing their ICO has increased greatly recently because most are finding it extremely difficult to raise money talkless reaching their  softcap. It doesn't make sense for investors to invest into a project and to find out that after listing on exchange you can buy it at half the ICO price

[andrey111]

Oh, I participated in many bounty, which was postponed, extended, canceled. It began in January 2018. Now this is a usual occurrence.

I agree, rather yes than not. When the market is in such a state as it is now not quite prudent to conduct ISO. So I think this is the right move from the team.

[Noizebtc]

This is not always a sign that the delay due to the fact that they can not raise funds. If the project is really good that he's raising money for a few weeks or even days. And projects that carry may not have calculated the forces

[cryptolidus]

Maybe they are just not prepared. Market situation is as it is, and 4Q is the best possible time for launching a project. Market situation is tough, but it could stay to be tough for years.

[rockyfeller]

I think postponing ICO in the long run is a sign of negative market, most likely if the Ico reach soft cap that coin will be listed on several markets. So guys think carefully before investing in ICO.

[coino.org]

As for me it is a big red flag. Every single ICO postponed token sale didn't perform high ROI and it seems for me that it is the strongest sign of negative market as well

[unknown-user]

It might be probably really because of the negative market behavior this year. projects are choosing to postpone the projects in order to be safe from being negatively affected by the downtrend in the market which is a good idea. Such action would yield for the betterment of the project in general and we users and investors should understand that.

[kickdapa]

This is not a sign of negative market rather it is because of the Negative market. Crypto market passing a long time bear market, But ICO Projects are coming without any delay! They are not stopping to bring ICOs! Millions of USD has taken by the scammers in this year, that's why many investors are not interested in ICOs anymore. For this reason, good ICOs also can't make enough funds! So, they are postponing or extending their ICO time to fulfill their soft cap! And this thing has happened with Profede!

[kabum21]

I think it's a sign of maturity, recognizing that this is not the best time to launch a new project, maybe they felt that their project was not attractive enough to reach the soft cap, so instead of battling against this bear market, the best thing is to try to find the best opportunity to launch your product.

[crimsongoth]

I guess we are all of one mind about delaying an ICO, which it isn't a good sign. There are many successful projects under the current bad conditions of the market. That's why I don't think that's the only reason for the postponing.

[ukloon]

A lot of projects now are being delayed or paused simply because they cannot reach the softcap. This is bad for bounty hunters because there is no sign that the project will resume and the stakes honored for distribution.

maybe, this is because the current market situations my friend,, so, the team decided that
red market is not good for ICO project

[Zainal-baguz]

I also have such thoughts bro. there are no managers who delay ico they must be behind the plays they are doing there is something unpleasant. like their Ico prices falling or negative ..

[valnd]

Yeah sure I have been in an ICO that have postponed their ICO for three good times, I had no other option than to leave the bounty campaign and join another bounty  campaign, though i understand from their side that the market is in a bear condition and people are not buying ICO much these days, but I think it is good to keep your words,

[Coltpython]

Many  icos are postponed for various reasons. Although the negative market is a huge factor why postponements are so rampant today. Another reason they postpone is because of the summer holidays. Project owners feel most top investors will have gone for vacation and so they saw it as wise to postpone the ico till the end of summer

There are many reasons why an ICO need to be postponed and sometimes you don’t really have to blame them. The only I do have with that is you may continue working for a scam ICO all that long and after that you will get paid, that’s where the pain comes in. A lot of them do postpone after a switch, just like some I know that switched from Ethereum to NEO, and since NEO is new they got to postpone due to that.

Prolonged bears, this is the main reason for postponing and freezing many ico. Even tokens are now very cheaper and almost everyone does not expect their growth, but in vain. We need an urgent impulse and a turn to continue trading.

[deevan]

Many ICO startups are postponing their ICO due to a current market situation which is usually in red, Due to current market situations the investors are not keen to invest in new projects as a price of many tokens decreases more than half of the price after listed on exchanges. And as a result, many ICOs are failed due to unable to attract investors & raising sufficient funds. So teams are waiting for the market to get bullish to start their ICO so they can gather as many investments as they can.

[anov996]

Managers of ICO comes might plan to deferred their cryptocurrency comes owing to sure major underlying key factors that embrace lack of economic resources, but the current down trend within the crypto may be one in every of the unfinished factors, the implication is that managers would possibly plan to refund investors funds and fix another date for the ICO

[Soundy]

The reason for it is widely feasible for everyone to see. The market is not really ok now and people are skeptical of risking their with ICO that is not certain if the project will surely succeed . Most of the time, traders invest their profit in ICO but the profit is not forthcoming now.

It is because, as an entrepreneur who wants to manage and grow a project in a big and enormous way, you should study the market and the people who will going to have an interest in your project. Basically, if an ICO is posponed, the reason behind this is that, their initial study about how the project will going to be done is affected by some outside factors that has a greater possibility of inducing negative effects on the project. As a result, they postponing it and they're trying to find the right time when, the project will become effective.

It is indeed a sign of bad market situation. First of all, projects won't choose to delay the progress if not because of the possible conflicts which might give more trouble to the project. So those projects who have postponed their sales might probably avoiding the downtrend for the betterment of the project itself for a long run.

I think the developers are just aware that the current state of crypto is not the best to launch an ICO. And to top with that, investors at the moment are hesitating a lot because of the red market. So I think they are just waiting for the bull run to continue their projects and ICO.

Why are you surprised? Now they transfer or postpone every second ICO. This is due to the fact that in a severely fallen market, people do not want to invest, since the cost of Ethereum and bitcoin is very small.

You say right, I think all new companies and projects are waiting for stable market conditions, because they don't want after liting at the price of their coins falling. so every project that I follow waits until 2019, they predict and expect market conditions to improve. then they are ready for distribution

[automail]

Yes. I do have the same experience on a previous ICO I joined. The project was supposed to end by late April but it was extended until October 15,2018. The project was unable to gather enough sales and it results to pausing the ICO for over a month then going back when the market recovers. However, the bear market is always there so the project was forced to resume and end the project with only a few coins sold. Good thing they don't rely that much on investors since they already have the money for the softcap. Someone rich supported their project but I think he's regretting it now.

[Huskarls]

Since market prices fell very hard, there were many ICOs who delayed their launch, so that the plan in the roadmap was absolutely uncertain in the future, what was even worse was the ICO project that had just been born and had not yet reached the seller stage.

if you already know that the market is in a bad condition, why do they continue ? it should be a risk that is understood from the start, market conditions cannot stop them from continuing to follow the roadmap and continue development

[Astermony]

 Legit ICO wants their project to be successful and in the event that during pre-sale it did not make the expectation, they tend to halt it but it doesn't mean it is due to negative market but rather making some improvement on the said project to attract more investors.

[Olatunjex]

I think it is a sign of negative market, people aren't buying ico unlike when market was uptrend presently market is downtrend as a result it's hard for ico to raise money to start plans laid down when market recover people will start to buy ico again.

[DISPERADO]

I think it is a sign of negative market, people aren't buying ico unlike when market was uptrend presently market is downtrend as a result it's hard for ico to raise money to start plans laid down when market recover people will start to buy ico again.

Yes it is obvious. I think we all need to wait for prices to go up in the market. How to just find out when it will be. I'm already tired of waiting.

[phoenixdowndee]

There can be many reasons why an ICO postpones.

Yes it could be because there is a decline in the amount of investment, but also there are many other factors to consider that we do not know about as we do not work in the startup

- Meeting regulations, KYCS
- Sickness of key staff
- Behind on schedule in regards to the system or marketing
- Changes / pivots in the startup
- Christmas / holiday season is always a tough time as staff are off, investors will be focused on family time and connections / partners will also be away.

The only thing that will determine a negative market is the drop in the price of the token. I wouldn't read too much into some ICOs postponing.

[Gurjasmeet]

Although in these days market is going down. many ico's are postponed their projects also.perhaps its a sign of negative. but l think many other reasons arising of postponing any projects .

[Gabmot]

As we may have all be well intimated about the effect the bloody market's having on people's perception about crypto right now is something that cannot be underated. The toil its taking is much more than what we can think of. Many that actually wanted putting money into so many icos are forced to think it twice before diving into the deep oceans. In most cases, many of them have opted to holding on to their hard money rather than losing it over any project.

[SuiMikira]

ICO paused is the result of gloomy market. It is obvious, in bear market now, token price always dump after listing on exchanges, investors don't have profits, they must wait for months to get higher price than ICO price. That's the reason why investors are not interesting with ICO.

[AlphaGoo]

This situation is really bad. Reputation is very important to business. If you lose trust, the bank will go bankrupt, so I hate the act of dishonesty.

[craked5]

many good projects postponing their ICO and also distribution of tokens and listings. that is the feature of 2018 cryptocurrency market.

[vova.andreyan.94]

At the moment, a lot of ICO are transferred, and there is nothing surprising, because the market situation is not very good!

[Endikadija]

That depends on the developer, you should do a research about does the developer actively managing the community and created regular update regarding the development progress.
This has become the main problem when there was no a lot of updates and so many people will doubt about that and then they are leaving the project. this gives a lot of impact to the price.

[duuuuude]

I can understand that some ico companies are extended but when they do it without warning I think that it is a scam. I assume that not only ratings but also the amount of fees can be inflated.

[funchiestz]

Yes, because many projects may not receive the necessary investment in the ICO process. In this case, a re-evaluation process is put into effect for the fake of the project.

[Benarand]

Unfortunately it's true. Many ICO postpone fees indefinitely or until the market recovers because project managers know that with such a market they cannot reach soft cap.

That's right. That is the signal of the negative market, Most of the current ICO postponed to wait good market up, All altcoin and bitcoin are falling down and investors are very careful in every detail to preserve the money and they are not interested in the ICO at this time

[Dlux75]

Yes postponing ico a sign of negative market because these icos know they can not collect these amount of money during that bear market and they are postponing. That is normal and naturel thing.
They are waiting for next bull market. and with that way they can easily collect money for their icos.

[DikkieD]

I feel for those projects that needed to postpone, or went through with really disappointing results. Maybe some of those projects should ask themselves if it really was a luminous idea or that it was mainly based on getting a nice ride on the ico hype train.

There are several projects that did raise much money last few months. I hope it means they were funded by those that did good research and really believed in the project, I assume this because volume is very low at exchanges, which is a clear sign not many people are currently buying/selling.

Anyway. One update that came across my time line was about a project named Spotcoin that has actually been working very hard with their private funds raised over the past few months, and now they revealed they will be launching their product, an exchange, within 2 months instead of somewhere next year (read their full update here). The good part, owning their tokens mean you get two types of dividends. One is related to the exchange fees. The other to their secondary sources of revenue (hydro-mining, otc). Another thing I like is that they are from Georgia (the country) and they are working hard to get the crypto adoption ball going....and are succeeding in it. The fun thing about this all? They did not postpone, they started their ICO last week and it runs until the 27th of October. Yes, they are not getting the many millions projects easily got back in January, but still they are doing great, so many people actually believe this could go somewhere .

[nikola22]

Although in these days market is going down. many ico's are postponed their projects also.perhaps its a sign of negative. but l think many other reasons arising of postponing any projects .

the main important reason is a lack of investors and funds so you don't have to seek another reason. this step shows really bad days for ICO projects.

[Conte_Forni]

Now almost everyone is doing it, because the market is very weak and people do not want to invest their money in the ICO! Moreover, recently the same tokens on the exchanges, after their release can be bought cheaper than during the ICO! Therefore, now the developers have chosen a tactic which, in their opinion, will be the fruits of the fruits!

[yrrehc16]

There is so many PRoject who postponed their MAIN ICO.
They dont want to place their ICO on this kind of market.
The situation is not good according to them. Also, you can add so many scam projects who limit the investors on having a full trust in any ICO.

[novy]

I stopped to participate in private sales from June and some of the project still didn't start their ico till now. All of them are waiting a better market situation because the is a risk to not to reach softcap either.

[sergeykravchenko1959]

I believe that the current situation in the crypto market is the main reason that many ICO projects are postponing their time on the stock exchange.

Any delays are a sign of weakness of a project. Strong projects aren't totally dependant on the state of the market, they usually collect HardCaps at downfalls. If an ICO is postponed, it's a signal that you should not invest or participate in Bounty.

[Tosin12]

Recently postponing of ICOs has become rampant and some extend ICO if they don't want to stop for a while and the reason is because of the bear market, the ICOs are not able to raise targeted found they needed to implement their idea hence alteration of whitepaper and roadmap. The trend will stop when crypto market is booming again

There were and there are ICOs that have decided to postpone their sales. For instance, 4thPillar postponed its crowdsale, because of the state of tge market. Although, it has started and sales are ongoing. So many other also did the same.
Sometimes, they might just want to play safe.

Yes, I also participated in some projects that were debugged from ICO until the market recovered and they returned money to us investors, you need to invest in projects that will live for a long time here is an example of #swachhcoin. The project will pay people for their trash. At the moment the bonus is 5%, you can buy coins by the end of October. I advise you to see the project.

[blackhawkeye1912]

ICOs had been postponed, ICOs had been cancelled, ICOs had been extended, these are some of the chain effect of down market. For almost the whole year, the market is so bearish with investors thinking twice investing in any investment. Coins are very low in prices including ETH, the fuel of ICOs. Hoping that when the market turns green, ICOs will follow.

[Viklopot]

I think that ICO is postponed for several reasons .the first is the fall of the market and the second is that the management is not confident in the success of the project.

[qtronix]

I think that the market can certainly have an impact on projects. Many of them do not want to fail and postpone the ICO. Sometimes it is simply unprofitable and the decision to postpone the IPO may be the only right decision.

Most of the time it's lack of fund they raise in ICO that causes them to postpone ICO. They simply want suifficient funds to continue the project otherwise it's too hard for them to do  since they want to do as planned since the beginning. It's dissapointing but can be understandable

Not only profede is postponing ico, but many projects also run ICO like for months and months, back in the days it was 1 month and that's it.
The market is stagnating and fewer investments are coming to the new projects, as even old ones are showing huge losses...

[nak02]

Yes, a lot of them sometimes they extended it and stop also and continuing until the market is stable or okay for opening an sales, but I think if they want to be popular or patronize in  those people who want to invest in good project, I guess maybe finish what they after.

what do you mean with no one investing anymore,,
i think for now,, investors is confuse, because there are a lot of ICO project
and the market conditions also create less demands on ICO

Why are you surprised? Now they transfer or postpone every second ICO. This is due to the fact that in a severely fallen market, people do not want to invest, since the cost of Ethereum and bitcoin is very small.

You say right, I think all new companies and projects are waiting for stable market conditions, because they don't want after liting at the price of their coins falling. so every project that I follow waits until 2019, they predict and expect market conditions to improve. then they are ready for distribution

Market conditions really have an effect on the ICO because of course investors will rethink investment in the ICO because in fact every project that forces the ICO at this time prices always fall far below the ICO price and of course it is very detrimental to investors.

[florianuhlemann]

they put it off because there are no investors. this is due to the state of the market at the moment and the increase in the number of scams-ico. investors do not know who to trust.

[maxim000]

Generally ICO don't perform well in bear market. Because of this, most of the time either ICO get Halted/postponed or the end date gets extended. This could be a frustrating thing for the bounty hunters. But sometimes it is required for the product and company to get enough investment for carrying out the project which ultimately going to help the token price.

[anobtc]

I think I need to say the opposite. The downside has caused many ICO projects to postponed. Many investors are concerned when investing in ICOs, while the old investors are out of capital.

[Just John]

It is, so many of the projects now are having a hard time reaching the target that they have placed on their projects and with that there is a lot of things to be taken into consideration when this happens. It is one as a result of a negative market with the coins being down and all but also there is the fact that a lot of people are no longer interested in investing in new coins due to the growing number of scams

Worries and doubts will put this an end and it looks a negative market trend. We saw a huge decline and makes some ICO can't proceed to its goal as they don't achieve the desired amount they want to. It is so sad for us,  maybe crypto isn't a long term investment thus new coins isn't very welcome to the community.

[Turkish88]

Postponing ICO, is the signal about not interesting project.
On bull peoples invest in all ico's its not indicator.
Bear market show us what projects are really interesting for investors

[babarian]

ICO delay can be one of the strategies of the dev and the team, so that the ICO they are doing is running successfully, therefore I think if ICO is delayed it is not due to negative market conditions

[cctv0]

Not necessarily, this has something to do with the ICO itself, and some ICOs may have problems. But some ICOs want to appear in a good market, which is easier to succeed. New coin growth is difficult when the cryptocurrency market is sluggish.

[thesmallgod]

I do not see anything bad in it if ICO is being postponed so far the team know what they are doing. A lot of investors this day do not want to invest any more in ICO because of fall in price of crypto. It seems the market is very volatile now. How ever this is just one of the reasons why ICO is being postponed. There are still many more reasons for that and it might be an organisational issue to caused the postponement.

I do not agree that postponing is a sign of a bad ICO. Potentially, the company may not have time to complete the timeline with the advertising, or whatever else could happen. This commonly leads to distrust, but each situation is individual.

I had ever seen similar project as the one you mentioned. They are postponing or even extending their ICO session.
What i believe is that they hasn't get the amount of funding they need to start their project.

There is really direct influence of the market why suh ICO is postponing their campaign. Some reasons is due to lack of the investors willing to participate in the project and also, lack of marketing strategies to implement and attract the investors and bounty hunters.

[Kool5]

Postponing ICO is one of the developers' plans. Because the necessary amount of money is not collected from investors, and the token must be unloaded onto the exchange.

yes ,, this is a big sign if ICO market is not good enough in this day,,
as we can see, a lot of project didn't meet the soft cap,, and become a failed project without enough fund to develop their project
i have an experience with this conditions too

[ranggenga]

That could be the developers strategy to fix their promotional or fixing some issue behind the screen to maximize their ICO selling.
But postponing can cause a drawback on a project, making the potential investors to withdrawn their will to invest on the project.

Less marketcap and then less money in the crypto market and with the more coins come and that makes the money will have divided by more coins too. This will give a negative impact and that's why the ico should have created more preparation and waiting for the next hype to be come as soon as possible.

[mummybtc]

There are two ways to this, there is no need to commence on ICO if the market sentiment is against you, go and ask how many ICOs are hitting their softcap not to talk of Hardcap. Alot of projects have cancelled their ICOs and look for another means to raise fund because they were unable to raised for their projects.  Another thing I considered is that some fo these projects have overspent on marketing and is hitting them now because they won't be able to raise the ridiculous amount they are looking for

Yes, it is well noticed. From the second half of this year, already launched ICO projects began to be massively delayed, extended, announced the second round at the ICO, and other such actions, from which it can be seen that not everything is in order with fundraising. This, of course, indicates that the market as a whole is sick, it has significant problems that interfere with its normal operation. This problematic state of the market lasts until today. The reason for this - for a number of established reasons, investors are not showing proper activity.

[Strongkored]

Postponing ICO better than not listing the token on exchange after ICO Finished, postponing is strategy from dev to prepare and make sure the project is ready to launch.

Postponing an ICO does not mean that the ICO project is not good, sometimes it will be used as a strategy to buy some more time for the project development and when the project is ready to launch they resume the ICO, to show the investors that the project is ready, the homework finished, just invest and earn profit.
Looking at the current scenario most of the ICO postponed because the investors are not trusting them because of a lot of scam ICOs. So they wait for this negativity to lessen a bit.

if the delay of ico is a good thing it doesn't matter to do it, but there are some ico that are postponed and they are very difficult to get back up from the slump they have experienced.

Not the first project that stopped due to cuts in investment capital, is not enough for further development. But if you believe in the project, then wait for the market to turn around and for the project to continue.

[Whaletale]

This is what we get when some have decide to scam investors of their hard earn money , which make it more hard for any investors to trust any ico now , I don't see the down market as the cause but the scammer , because down time is the best time to invest in ico as that will surely bring some bonus and gain in main time rather than holding stagnant coin in this time of dip for months with no change but due to what scammer have turn the ico to , many investors don't invest anymore except the ico team is known in the world or have a very strong background.

[Victorycoin]

I suppose this is a smart decision. Because the price is low, the ICO will not be beneficial to the project. Good market up, many investors will join more and the ICO release will definitely make it easier

Wake up that would only happen with miracles. A low price is indicative of a project having little or no use  in real lifel. No one flushes their hard earned money down the drain with  their eyes open. Whenever a project is well thought out  and its team committed to actualising it, it hardly have any reason not to attract significant patronage

[chairmanMao]

This is not important, and ICO's delay does not mean that the probability of failure is increasing. A good ICO project is not afraid of this. The goal of a good development team is to make coins work better. But this is a devastating blow to a bad coin.
