Is investing on ICOs still profitable?

[Torbeks]

It depends on the ICO. But if you are talking about the number of successful ICO's this year, I don't think they are profitable because only 22% of ICO's are legit based on the stats and 78% were scam or a failure. You decide on where you want to invest but if the risk is too high and the rewards are not that great, think again. It will be best to invest on established coins like Ethereum or XRP. You can also try bitcoin since the price is so cheap that is so hard to say NO.

Well i do agree with the fact that several ICOs are failing but i can testify that there are quite a number of ICOs that are still flourishing even in this bear market. i guess what investors need to do to stay safe from all these scam projects is to look further into projects that they want to invest into because earning from ICOs are still profitable but you need to invest into a potential and solid project.

Now investing in ICO's profits can't support risk prevention and control. I mean that even gambling investments are not worth it. The cryptocurrency is rapidly declining and the ICO will soon disappear. Only a few ICOs will succeed in the future.

I think now it makes no sense to sell something ...

Some powerful ICO projects can still bring profits to early investors because they know how to sell their own tokens, but some fake projects will only make investors lose their property!

I still have a deep impression on the people who still have the courage to invest in ICO in the current cryptocurrency market. Currently, more than 99% of ICO investments have failed. The entire cryptocurrency market has entered a dangerous period. The current investment is hundreds of times the risk of investing in ICO in 2017.

If the investment in the ICA still made a profit, we would not see all these problems related to fund raising. Now even the best projects face difficulties during the training camp. They have to extend the bounty of the company, cut pools and so on.

for me , ico based on the ethereum is mostly not good.
Try to invest based on the NEO, EOS, and Vechain platform.

Hello everyone, I have seen many failed projects recently. I have received many emails regarding investing on ICOs, so is it still a good time to invest? I didn't made good with my earlier investments. Is there still a future for ERC-20 tokens?

I still use this method of earning and now I am fully confident that it will be profitable. I am sure that if you do not make a mistake in the project you will get exactly what you need

Yes, investing in ICO is still profitable but there are some factors you have to consider and the factors are
1. You have to consider the total supply 
2.you have to consider the team member of the project
3. You also have to consider their soft cap and hard cap.

I wouldn`t recommend to invest in ICOs nowadays, as this sphere need serious filter and regulations, rather then current outlaw situation.
Also, 83% of ICOs go lower then their ICO price..
Tells pretty much imho..

In this market, I would not sell anything

Investing in ICO is very dangerous, since most of the projects are fraudulent, and the remaining projects have ceased to make a profit from investing in them.

Not only ICO ... It makes almost every coin / token cheaper. This is the result of panic by almost everyone, forcing them to throw their portfolio at the base level to get fiat. This provides the best opportunity to take good coins at low prices and wait for big profits as the market soars, which is sure to happen. However, you must be careful to only invest in ICO with real substance and take coins with great potential.

ICO investment is still profitable if you are investing in a very promising ICO too. Despite the higher risks in ICO investment, investors tend to choose them because of the big discounts that they can avail if they become an early adapters or investors of that ICO.

ICO investment is still profitable and there are many good ICO's has in the market which has high potential to grow more in upcoming days. But as per the current market situation, many investors have not coming towards the ICO. As per the time passes, the market will recover soon and believe me it is still profitable to make an investment in ICO's.

These factors are important but in this current market about which the OP is asking I will suggest that we also have to look that how much the project have the potential in the future business. We also have to look that how much will be the demand of the product which the project will present after the ICO.

At the moment, it is difficult to find a project that can raise enough money and begin to develop. So now it is better to postpone all thoughts about investing in ICO.

[Om.monata]

investment in ico is always profit, provided we continue to choose potential ico. so I think this is a moment that we need to select in more detail so that as long as we invest in ico we still get profit.

[Nikolas_the_Wonderworker]

I witness how some tokens have risen in price after the end of ICO. If I observe this with my own little experience, it means that there are even more such successful projects.
