The feedback I'm getting is that it's almost impossible to find an ICO with a product

It's true but not all ICO will have working products during their ICO. So Whitepaper is the most important.

But obviously the ideal situation is to find an ICO that has both  Wink

Some White Paper's I have read sound so promising but I can't bring myself to invest as the chances of success are very limited. I'm actively looking for product based ICO's to invest in
That is usually the thing ! Sounding promising and being workable in reality are two major things.
A lot of people focus so much on the whitepaper and the idea, which I believe Ideas can be copy, but they tend to discard what is valuable the most, which is the product.

At least, the presence of a product shows you a team that is ready to work and know what they are doing to be able to have been achieving to that stage. It is then the future of this product and its further development based on the other technicalities you have read, and how it is going to be useful enough to create demand in the long run, which you are investing in now.

I guess many ICO's are unable to produce the product first as they need the funding to implement their idea but so many ideas fail. If the product is proven then it's a good investment in my opinion.

Articles continue to come out about failed ICO's. What do they all have in common? No product

If you find an ICO which can offer its product then send here the link, I think that you will find many investors.
& I get Only SciDex, This allows the expression and execution of more complex transactions. The result: readable, compliant and adaptive smart contracts for complex assets transaction (i.e. data, licensing or insurance).

Whether it has a working product or just a white paper, the success of ICOs depends on the truthfulness, honesty, dedication and just in time delivery of the project from the team member . Having a working product does not guarantee a success of an ICOs but it gives a high investors confidence rating.

Good point. No matter whether there is a product or not, people have to know about it and the team. Timing is hugely important, too.

this is a popular form why you think it is unreliable. there are a lot of facts of successful ICO. of course there are cases of risk, but does not mean that this form is not needed.

Your opinion is not 100% correct, ICO with working product does not mean it'll become success, some project raised a lot of fund without working product, how do you explain this situation? Whitepaper just a way to let investor know more about the project, 2018 not a good year for ICO, anyway I still believe lCO investments
This is not about the success, it is about at least investing in something you can see which as far as I am concerned, a whitepaper without a product is far worse than a project with both unless we want to lie to ourselves. Like you said, whitepaper is just a way to give you the idea of what the project is practically based on and make you understand the product.

However, in the absence of a product, you will only be investing in empty promises, and the last time I checked, I thought investors are already smart enough to know that investing in empty promises is like taking a huge risk.

We can find many ico only giving promise about their product when we are investing at their ico, I am never see how the seriously of the ico project want to give real product based on their ico offer. Many ico have energy product but when listed at the market we are seeing nothing.
Sometimes you don't have to look to far to find an ICO with a product Wink

ICO's are very difficult to publicly fund now. Ideas really aren't going to cut it. A product is far more attractive especially if it's proven

2018, especially Q2, has made investors more cautious when it comes to ICO investment. An ICO with a product is going to be instantly more attractive. It needs to be a product that is proven and a team that has a clear vision of expansion.

yes, with the many ico without products currently many of them are scams so I think products and whitepapers are very important so investors know more details about the details of ico
