ICO Investments Why Risky?

[jonhsongotti]

Thank you for your sharing, this is useful information for investors. I have participated in several ICO projects but not luck in those investments. On the other hand, ICO this year is very different from 2017.ICO does not have any legal framework, so when fraud occurs, investors will not be protected by law, but must be responsible for their work. This is also what many investors are most concerned about when investing in ICOs.

In fact we do not know about the project either it is going to become successful or not, in fact we need to study the project, its white paper, its roadmap and its staff and after that we can decide that either the project is going to become successful or not.

If only it went smoothly for the market last year maybe we have a better one today. Only the hype of BTC dragged most of the alts, it was a good opportunity to engage in ICOS until then. The day comes and boom most ICOS are being said as scam or ponzi projects and there it goes-tainted the name and some other few coins that is worth the trust. The market today is at where it supposed to be, if another big fall donw of prices then I can't imagine anymore what could happen to crypto currencies.

in conditions like now it is very difficult to find ico who can bring benefits we must be good at analyzing and of course for now the luck factor is greatly affected by the many scams and frauds that often occur in the future it will be better

Yes, as for me there is much risk in ICO investment since we can't hold any control over what we have invest and worst scenario this time a lot of scam ICO scattering in the market and sometimes if we can choose a legit one but won't success, the best thing to do us to examine thoroughly before investment to reduce risk.

ICO investment is considered to be more risky compared to crypto investment that are already listed in crypto assets exchange. If you are really good enough on determining whether an ICO has a promising future then you can really invest in ICO without fear at all.

I believe that the most important risk factor is the lack of knowledge about cryptocurrencies and the lack of desire to learn it. The fact is that if a person has knowledge, he is aware of all the existing risks and knows how to minimize them. There are risks in any field, so it's not so scary.

[Shimmiry]

It's actually not that risky if you do lots of research.  Its risky for the idiots that throw money at anything that is hyped up with lots of advertising.

I agree. But then it has still risk but with enough knowledge that can be gained through research and such, the risk will be lessened. Not really eliminate but only lessened. Proper research is the key for you to avoid scams. You are just in risk if you are not smart enough and wise in making decision.

our decision must based on our research and observation.do not decided it based our feeling.if we dont, we could decided wrong thing.

Risk is a norm for all form of investment, in order to play save ensure you take calculated  risk, that is ensure you research well in details, do no invest base  on social media hype or ICO rating site, invest in on  project with an existing product.

You're right, but this is only half of the reasons. The other half is due to the fact that the market is down for almost a year since January. How could investors try their luck on ICOs when major coins such as bitcoin and especially ethereum are not doing well in the market. Let's wait until the market goes green and see the effects on ICOs.

[yourialfa]

The biggest factor in my opinion might be law. Because the absence of a law for cryptocurrency makes this very risky. Because if we get hit by an ico scam, our money will immediately disappear. So the law is very important in my opinion. It's only the strongest in my opinion, actually because virtual and so on also become a risk. So this depends on your perception of seeing this. So if you want to invest in ico. Then you need to think carefully. That is all.

when an ICO goes according to the roadmap they make, of course it will be a very good advantage for those who invest, and this has been a big advantage since the ICO was there. however, some ICOs are indeed very risky, because sometimes they are not in accordance with their roadmap, and can be a scam.

[patarfweefwee]

Well, that maybe true but keep in mind that all the crypto currency top tiers today started out as an ICO. I still believe in ICOs in my humble opinion. It is just a matter of managing your risk simply by reading about the ICO you are entering in to. Most of the ICOs turn out to be crap coins but once in a while, we see ICOs with huge potential

[Layers318]

ICO investment is not risky as some people have tagged it. It becomes risky when an investor join blindly without any adequate information about the project and its ICO. The principle applies to every investment. It is therefore very necessary to study about the project before join their ICO.

High risk and high profit, that's what some ICO project investors always say. Seeing the ICO project in the past year which is always promising for investors who invest in it, even though in that year the ICO project is still like the current year, there is no legal protection specifically to handle ICO projects.

However, each investor's income exceeds the income of investors at other investment places at that time. Then I just doubt, why is the project different from last year even though there is still no legal protection? might condition the market cryptocurrency that causes this to occur.

We should definitely stay away from ico investments. Almost 90 percent of the projects are entering the market under the price of ico. This is actually an indication of how bad the market is.

[MFahad]

The ICO now is become too risky because I see all project is not giving a good result in this year and many of them delay the project. I think many investor worries about this situation because they cannot make a profit in this year and they still asked the team when they can refund or start to sell the token so they can take their money back.

ICO Investments and ICO themselves were good last year as this concept was new and many good projects started from the ICO stage. But then evil tapped in and many people tried to collect money with scam projects and ICO. This is the main reason these days investments in ICO are very risky.

if there are fewer and fewer who invest in ico, of course there are also fewer and fewer who need bitcoin, this happens because to invest they have to exchange it to btc. and indeed the price after listing is mostly dropped, so investors lose money, so they have to wait for more time to hold it back

[brooklynian]

If you notice very well, many of the ICOs currently running have extended their sales period. This is because they are yet to meet their targeted amount. People are now exercising great caution in ICO investment so that they don't get scammed by some fake ICOs.

[jatin729]

Now a days we have seen tons of ICOs coming without any product support so if you invested in those than you would get nothing out it. so before taking consideration of any ico you will have to do research of particular ico otherwise you will be in trap of risk.

[Teh Kotak]

There is no business that has no risk, neither does the ICO business. This needs to be considered before you enter the world of ICO, which is the financial risk that you invest. Besides being able to provide very high profits, ICO also gave big money. As an example of the most fatal loss, ICO coin developers do not run the project in accordance with the initial plan or funds that have been collected by the developer. There is also no loss too much at the ICO price. This is due to a lack of interest in coins, prices cannot increase. Therefore ICO is at risk, not all ICOs will succeed or fail.
