ICO Investments Why Risky?

[troganhorseyo]

I have not get good luck in investing into icos and the few one that I have invested is not doing very well in the market.  Icos investments is very risky and many investors have lose significant amounts of money.  I don't think we can really succeed the ways people and investors are losing money through icos scam projects.

One has to do a lot of research before investing in ICO's, its true that there are scammers out there who are pretending to be the real deal, only for investors to lose their money after investing in the project. IMO, there have been successful ones which has deepened the pockets of investors and more upcoming ones which look promising. But if you are tired of ICO's there are still other ways to invest in blockchain, for example, consider Hooch, not your typical ICO but the concept is wowing, they are tokenizing the rewards ecosystem by giving their users Tapcoin and discounts off their drink purchases, hotel bookings and access to reservations at top restaurants. And because Hooch is already an existing platform which is embracing blockchain, it is something worth investing in.

Not only ICO investments but also bitcoin investments have become risky since people got engaged in ICOs.
While analysing reports, the majority of investors have moved from bitcoin to ICOs and thus we see bitcoin decreasing market cap but soon things will again change and there will be equal interest among people for bitcoin and ICOs. Supporting bitcoin will  also be effective to ICO prices

sometimes a trusted ICO can also be a scam. well, it's natural that the investment in the ICO is really risky, because when you're just an investment, then chances are you will be disappointed when the price doesn't match what was promised. So, when you invest, make sure you are really interested in the project that has been developed. because when the price isn't high, you can still use the services they offer with the coins you buy.

because now there are so many ICOs that experience scam and fraud tokens, so the ICO is now a big risk if for an investment place and you also have to be careful to look for ICOs that will succeed later

Yeah so many scam ICO, that the number one problem buterin faces so before we first invest do research for no regrets in the end.Expect more scam ico to better be avoided as early as possible

Having an investment is not easy to do and have risk, risk is everywhere especially in cryptocurrency because there's no regulation to it. While in ICOs the reason why they have risk to it because most of them nowadays are not trustworthy there's only a few of them have worth. So we should be very careful of choosing ICO and invest wisely so that we can lessen to encounter a scam ICO.

Well what i think is ICO markets are mostly going scammy and thats why they are going much riskier. Investing into the cryotos world is not getting that trustworthy and is lending towards risky investments.

[shadowduck]

Investments in ICO projects are always risky because they do not indicate guarantees, and therefore people can lose all their money.

This is all understandable, but even in a project with a good idea, analyze the price of the sale of a token during the ICO and at the time of going exchange. We will see that in a falling market it is more profitable to buy a token in a couple of weeks on the exchange. For this reason, now the fees from the companies are small.

[daarul50]

One of the main reasons why investing in an ICO is very risky is that there is no guarantee from the developer of the coin price that is an ICO investment when the coin has been released in various crypto markets for trading.

Among the factors discussed, I pick law to be very important  and relating to the topic . Law comes first above the last factor which is risk. Risk is talking about trust and trusting the team or project but I don't even need to trust when I can legally make the team pay for their omission/act, conspiracy, embezzlement and fraud. I just sue them  

Totally agree with your point law enforcement with any kind of frauds , product not correctly delivered etc. have no firm solution

secondly what i believe is Discenterless Management is also a great factor that is very important , no promises of product , deliveries ,quality reassurance ,event market value can bell totally null. no one can report ,do any thing just bear with loss if conditions don't go your way.

[jcarlo]

ICOs very risky because there is no guarantee will landed on exchange and guarantee making a profits. We dont see the project work and good product, but we believe mostly because the developers team. Many ICOs become scam because the developers team are greedy and i think its bad for crypto community

Yeah one of the biggest scourges for ico investors is a scam. not infrequently a project becomes a scam because of the lack of interest or even developers who have the intention to cheat. so this investment is quite risky especially if you don't have the knowledge how to find a trusted and potential project

[ChristinaPi]

ICO investment is very risky because most of ICO are scam, you should prepare enough knowledge to avoid suffering a loss and protect your self

[leavolnhals]

It is one of the factors that greatly affect the success or failure of the ICO. But the most important thing is market condition. If the market shows signs of downtrend and everything is out of control of many investors, it will make them unwilling to invest in ICO projects.

[kokobaba880]

Due to virtual nature of crypto investment in this sector is risky and it is difficult for those who are not yet entered into crypto market. while investors who have experience in the crypto they do investment with out any fear.

Risk

Another risk factor that can be linked with an upper substance is trust. Since there is no legal regulation in this market, we can face many trust shortages when investing. Therefore, doing a detailed research on the members of the project team before making an investment will help us achieve a very useful result. With this research, the problem of trust will be solved and at least one risk factor will be reduced.

What is the biggest risk factor that makes you feel uneasy when investing in ICO? I am waiting for your answers with your explanations short or long.

this is what I fear when an investment is not regulated, meaning that there is freedom for the developer to be able to leave investors at any time after he earns money
This risk makes us always careful and cannot take big risks by investing in unclear places, therefore trading is the last resort for those of you who don't want to take big risks,

[gambitcoin53]

i think maybe why nowadays, ICO investment is more risky today than last year is because of investors who are afraid to jump in easily on investing in ICO, because the history for the last 18 months has a very frustrating picture, most investors are keen and very suspicious about an ICO, awareness is i think the main factors why it is hard for ICO to succeed, somehow ICO are regulated in a way how it is projected from the beginning.

[Bitcoin_Delivery]

ICO investment is very risky because most of ICO are scam, you should prepare enough knowledge to avoid suffering a loss and protect your self

Well, this is because now ico is getting more and more cheats because more and more people are not preparing to do ico and ultimately prices and investors who feel disadvantaged. be careful when we want to invest

[arpon11]

The happenings in icos market is not encouraging at all as most of the investors are loosing their investments capitals because of fake and scam projects.  We really need law and regulations in this market to stop scammers from stealing investors hard earned money.

[jademaxsuy]

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.

Well maybe you are not investing huge money for the risk will not matter because you are not geytting involve. But, try to get some empathy on the investors even if they do had a lot of resrarch the project they will be joining may still failed and those who brought up the project could run away frerly for.they are not revealing themselves.in the ICO and are just using someone's identity.

[Tory-Tory]

People actively invested in ICO when it was possible to make money even in public sales. When the chances of earning became equal to 0, then the interest died. As soon as the bull market begins, interest in ICO will wake up again, you'll see.
