I think the present of many scam in ICO market has negatively affect the mindset of investors towards the industry and I thing there's an urgent need of collective overhauling of the system in order to create a model that will always protect the interest of investors.

I believe that the current fraud in ICO has seriously affected the balance in the market, because when investors are affected by certain investment losses, they will no longer trust the ICO market!

right, bro, due to the many frauds in ico at the moment, investors are cautious or on guard to protect their assets. very detrimental to the fraud at ico made the investors not interested in reinvesting

caution in the ICO is a very basic element and should not be considered easy. things to note, reviewed. There are a few things to note, the first carefully in choosing ICO before it finally decided to join. make sure it is true, promising, and the information was able to answers the what was to become of mind you. afterward carefully in the process of implementation, this will drain a lot of effort and thought, where patience, emotional will be tested which will be an effect on decision-making, so it affects the end result.

During the summer and early autumn, the ICO were mostly unprofitable for investors. If this situation continues, new projects will not be released.

The need in having a good ICO is to study and make some research.
There are so many ICO now who are not into projects but with the money they can run from the investors.
there are some legit ICO who cant win the situation because investors are not ready to go back and make a project success.
We should be more productive and study more in crypto.

With so many scams around these days, investing in ICOs is a challenge. Aside scams, there are issues related with the viability of tokens, and utility. That is why I've been researching on how to get the right sort of token. Investors also need to do more research before paring with their money in ICOs. This article gave some insight https://cryptoinfowatch.com/initial-coin-offering-choosing-a-good-token/
ICO fraud occurs due to several factors. For example, a soft stamp is not achieved, so inevitably they have to find ways to find ways to get the capital they are targeting. So rather than you researching a new ICO, you better invest or buy an ICO project that is already on the exchange, because this is more convincing. Besides, this is the worst year of ICO in my opinion.

High profit and you will find high risk, investment in ICO is very promising especially last year. Most ICO projects have been successfully launched and get high prices compared to when the ICO took place. However, when the crypto currency market decreases and the number of projects scam then problems come so that makes ICOs a place that should be avoided by someone, especially newbies. There is no other way to think about when investing in an ICO, it would be better to choose bitcoin that will not deceive you.

That's so correct the crypto world is flooded with so many scam initial coin offering icos. So we all need to beef up our security measures that a so much security measures we can take just do a good research
Scam projects are everywhere we can't pin the crypto alone physical investments have a ton of scammers too if you are not careful to deal with it and you have a little knowledge as to what are you going to do they just found an alternative method to make a living out of fraud that's why ICO's right now are mixed with legit and scammers right now so be extra careful for these investments even with the tokens that are already listed.

I agree with you, investing in ICO this year has become an extremely dangerous occupation, since there are a lot of scams. Only a few projects were successful. If you do not know how to analyze projects, then it is better for you to stay away from investing in ICO.

A crypto market like all markets exists on the basis of self-regulation. The presence of problems in ICO is an insecurity that exists independently of our will and can only be resolved through the process of self-regulation.

Certainly swindlers have strongly and for a long time frightened off investors from cryptocurrency. But who on yours has to revise the principles of work? In fact nobody established them, they were established with time.

Or why not just stop investing to ICOs and just go with the normal tokens / coins that are already listed on exchanges?

Doing research is still good enough to know if the ICO is a scam or not that will give you strength on what to avoid.

May be that can form a good option but not that much good as if it will create a healthy environment for the crypto currencies. I mean if everyone stopped making investment into the ICO then how do you think that new coins which may have greater potential than the current will exits or will be created.

This can be bad and also there is always need to have changes in every field to improve things better and better. So in case of crypto currencies it is the crypto coins which are heart of the crypto world which needs to be improved all the time. Thats why ICO;s should be there.

Now scam and legit are the parts of different story I believe.
It is said many times that there are new coins that has much potential but what happened? the market's already full of crap coins that are even saying the same thing again and again.

Crypto market, bitcoin to be specific survived even without those.

What do you mean by self-regulation? Our government set regulation to all participating ICO's that it could lessen the number of fake project on the market.  But it happens that some ICO's didn't successfully achieve from their target amount collected from their selling period and it turns into worst when they never give info into their supporter and turn into scam.

To start at least some kind of regulation in the crypto-currency sphere, it is necessary to bring all (and ICO organizers and investors) to the verification procedure on any platform (like the same CIVIC or Traceto, etc.) in this case, everyone should be happy.

There are already many websites. Attention is very important when investing in ICOs. In this way we have witnessed that the sites are very wrong.

In my opinion, placing investment in ICO's entail high risk in your investment as we still do not have any market record data for our reference and it's only that trust you had believe that you may had invested the right ICO as your choice. However, prior to doing selection with ICO for your investment plan, just ensure that you had studied and research such ICO regarding the legitimacy of it's project platform and see to it the the team members involved to such project are open to the investor's awareness. With this, I believe that you may able to get involved with the right ICO for your investment.

It is difficult to decide when to make a decision to sell. The easiest to sell at any price, even falling to very low. This is a developers problem that needs to be solved by them.

Now, not only fraud in the ICO is common, but also in the companies of generosity and it's terrible, we certainly need to be more careful and accurate, but sometimes no matter how we try to still get to such projects.
