Actually, here in the world of crypto currency community everything is risk due to the fact that each and everyone of us want an instant money as we want a huge amount of profit when we invest.  Investing on such money here in the crypto currency world have no assurance but as we try our luck here, believing that soon in the future we can earn as much as we didn't expect that great amount.

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.
It really make sense to participate ICO that shows market interest by the community. It sad that some existing ICO are now got fails their softcap due to market condition and investors doesn't makes interest into a certain ICO. With that,  they might discontinue the selling and some project owners just disappear without refunding early investors. It could be the loss for everyone who are participating with them.

Investment is always risky not only in cryptocurrencies but also in other stocks because we can't make sure everything goes according to plan. But in terms of investment scam, there is a lot of involved in crypto space and that's why  it's not good to risk everything in it. Better to always invest for what we think we can only afford to lose.

In situation like this it's very risk to invest in ICO project because we can see now more ICO project
always failed to reach the softcap target so make failed that projects, even currently many projects just a scam.

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

Well, the guarantee has a lot to do with the team and as long as the team is fake, have no idea of what they are doing and have no mindset of working on a product, things like this will always happen.

Practically, with all I have said above, it is now left for every individual investor to try as much as possible to read a whole lot about the team and try to verify their authenticity and it is a good thing we have the likes of ICObench where KYC is done for the team, and knowing that this is a team that can deliver based on their profile, you will somewhat be rest assured that you can at least trust them not to scam you.

Secondly, product is one very important thing to look out for, its availability, the prospect in the long term and your belief in it. These two things can save you a whole lot of pain losing your money in the end.

Today there are so few intelligent and honest ICO, and a lot of scammers and deception.
People no longer trust their ICO funds.
My opinion is that it is much better to watch the project longer, and wait until the project is released on the exchange, and then buy tokens.

The biggest risk associated with ICOs are - they mostly use the word "Blockchain" and add a tagline where they say that they are going to disrupt a $XXX worth of industry with the use of Blockchain and X token. It's all shown as a big dream yet to be fulfilled, and data and research shows that most of these projects have failed to achieve their desired results just because most of them were interested either in scamming people by taking away their money or others did it just for trial basis to see if they could get the level of investments they're looking for.

by looking at reality, many ico's results were unsatisfactory. maybe that is the impact of decreased trust from investors. other than that, the roadmap's trip process is so long, so it is possible to choose to wait for listing in the exchange

There will still be some ICOs that give big massive returns. but a lot will also fail.  Thats the aspect of the risk vs reward, the risky invesments usually have the highest chance of big returns.

I don't think all ICOs offer virtual products, i've found some ICOs which offer physical products, such as smart watch, payment card, etc

My opinion why ICO investment is risky because we don't know if the project is very good or not, people can accept something benefits of the project or not. We still don't know if in the future, the project can reach their goals and get success and it needs time before they can prove it all. So it is risky for me, and if I want to invest with the ICO, I will use only small amount to see how good the project and if I think it is good, then perhaps, I will add more money to support the project.

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.

yeah its true, by acquiring full details before start to  investing  from ICO ,it the most important thing.due to is also main foundation element of successful investing. No matter what type of investment you’re making, research should always play a role,and it can be tricky to figure things out in the new regulatory environment.

ICO's and traditional IPO's are basically the same, Investors can either loss or gain profit but whats important is you should know what your investing its individuals responsibility, most investors don't care about the future of companies but they are only after the hype. I believe this crypto space has a lot good people and projects and hopefully one day it can compete with stock market by volume.
I think it is not the investment to ICO's that are risky but the finding of the good ones that makes it risky. I mean if you are investing into a coin that has a future than getting in early at the ICO levels is as much profitable as it gets however finding those little gems between all the shitcoins is the true risk.

Are you investing into something that could one day become x100 of the ico price because it is a marvelous new coin or are you investing into something that creators just wanted to create a sham so they can get your money and leave with you with couple coins that worths nothing? Who knows.

There are always going to be scams every now and then and for an environment that is not even regulated and investors who are not very well learned, tend to make silly mistakes by not doing due diligence, it even gets worst. The thing here is that, there is no way you won't be a victim when you do not take into account the things you should know before investing in an ICO.

The team, the product, the business solutions and some other technical things are not just there for nothing, and even if you have to investigate all these things, you have to do it in details and not rush over them, as far as I am concerned.

the main reason why ico investment has big risk was about team developers idendity, some of ico project using anonym indentity.so we could not know about them.and they could bring out our money.

It is risky at all, its not because they are "idiots" or so what but because its the ICO to decide when they are going to scam. Money shines to those who are not true to their doings. ICO investments are really risky since it is just an offering, meaning there are no assurance but a plan to do a project. Even old trader and investor got scammed too.

It's common for many Crypto investments from ICO to be scam and dangerous, I personally think the average of all 90% ICOs is a scam and only 10% are truly honest and proven to be real projects,

This is an issue that must take priority since many people trust these ICO, which happens when they do not meet the expected expectations? Do you run out of funds for having trusted an indecent team?

Because many irresponsible people want to take benefits from crypto growth and they dont have real project. Some ICOs very slow when want to land on exchanger and it make investor waiting too long.
