very good points...but the ico space is still cluttered with a lot of insincere projects, hopefully the weak teams will be phased out by next year...

i agree that those insincere projects be weeded out.  they have messed the market big time.

ICOs are not dead but most of the investors lost their interest to invest on ICOs which is very bad thing for ICO market and it will be very hard to regain the same position even when the bull run begins but yes it will eliminate the hit and run investors here after and will induce the people to invest on long term will be a goof thing for the crypto market future.

When the market is more difficult now, ICO are not easy to earn as much as they want. That's why creating startups in crypto is really valuable. This is the way investment funds and investors pay attention, that is the right path for the current ICO projects.

ICO are not dead but they are in coma. it is very hard nowadays for so many ICO to make softcap not to talk about hardcap due to low number of investor are involve in contribution. I do not think ICO will be dead as we shall be seeing some project startup that will need contribution for investors but many of them will have to run for many month in order for them to raise substantial amount

You're right. Fraudsters killed me all the desire to invest in new projects. Now I invest only when the coin starts trading on the stock exchanges.

ICOS are not dead, but a large number of weak and fraudulent projects are killing them. I think that only market regulation and ICO will be able to solve this issue, and until then we can only wait.

ICO will never die but will continue to grow because this is the only easiest way to collect money from investors. But the question is, are there still people who are interested in investing in the ICO? I think yes, because even though there are a lot of scam projects but the fact is that some of them still can achieved the hardcap, and can provide a large profits to investors.

The ICO idea is very good and profitable and its on the way to make the company be recognizable. ICO is not dead, it's just reconstructing it system to a modern way.

Honestly, I did not understand what exactly the author of the topic created wanted to convey. But I agree with the opinion that the market for ICO projects is changing right now and after the market recovers, the rules may be changed and the market for ICO projects will be regulated.

I actually want to see a development in ICO that will lead to decentralized regulated ICO, compliance to ideals of decentralization and totally self governing space for ICO without the interference of any Centralized entity!

Most of the ISO are not dead, just manipulators( these are the Big players buying up an asset at the bottom, and competently manipulate so that assets fall in price) and thus it turns out that most of the projects have gone big and big losses,and there is an assumption that many after that do not accrue projects

The current scam ICO is easy to spot, because they really do not focus on quality. So it can not attract money from investors. Instead, the current time is very good for quality ICO projects

Apart from maturing in the most correct and legible way, investors have gotten wiser intelligent and even more patient to do their own research

Even if there are still gullibles
The market trends is preventing certain icos skit
Stos are coming up slowly and we tend to have more of security token come 2019

We are in the way of maturing, developing process is still working. We witness its fulfillment once crypto is highly accepted in the market as well as the full support from the government. Regularization still in the discussion and it takes years to be successfully imposed, this is also a way to make change in the trend and have a stabilize market value.

ICO will not die. new ICO will continue to appear and will certainly make the market getting better. It's just impossible to time it because crypto was falling then the ICO also provides results that are not very satisfactory. but continue to believe and be selective in the selection of the ICO will be able to give great results in accordance with desire.

I wrote this before, and am writing it here now. I would really like to advocate for institutions and VC money entering this space. Let me know your comments.

The fervour and bullishness of the Initial Coin Offering (ICO) of 2017 is long forgotten, and markets are maturing to a steady state. Regulations are becoming clearer, and talks of the Security Token Offering (STO) become common place. Where has the ICO gone? Simply put, its still there. Just not so ‘public’ and often anymore. Indeed, the velocity of token sales done in recent months are declining exponentially.

Private and/or institutional sales

It is well-documented that most ICOs today are sold largely (up to 95%) to private placements, consisting of institutions and High Net-Worth Individuals (HNWIs). These private offerings are completed with generous discounts before release to the public (no discount), or at times listing straight to a crypto exchange thereafter.

Equity and/or hybrid token offerings

As more VCs venture into this space, more traditional instruments of financing are being promoted- be it equity, convertible loans or token buy-back agreements. These instruments are important to ICO progress in two ways:

1. They bring about security to investments by holding the issuer/start-up accountable to the ICO.
2. They allow institutional investors a channel to buy into ICOs. Without which, most VCs do not have the authority or mandate to buy tokens.

The future of ICOs

Due to predominantly private, VC-driven ICOs, it is easy to mistake that the democratised, token-based ecosystem is regressing, or worse, ceasing to exist. ICOs today seem to model traditional fund-raising routes (which kind of defeats the purpose doesn’t it?).

However, it is useful to consider that blockchain start-ups and projects are not at all like other start-ups due to the existence of a secondary market (crypto-exchanges)— a very large one in fact. This means that most projects will still have their cryptocurrencies distributed over a larger pool of users/customers/investors.

As the crypto industry and regulatory environment continues to evolve rapidly, the idea of more compliant, accountable and funded ICOs cannot be bad.
I agree with you.  ICO will not die off but will be re-branded to suit it's purpose. The future of crypto is very bright and it's early to adopt now than later
