is investing in ICO's a good option?

[invincible49]

ICO investment is finished for me. Most of those projects are either scam, failed or shit projects with over-hyped tokens. Only a handful of those see the light of success. In my view, ICO investment is just wasting time, money and not worth at all. I'd say you better get involved with a successful project only after the ICO is finished and then buy their cheap tokens from decentralized exchanges where many come to dump

in any case, no one will merge the tokens of a truly promising project. In addition, the developers themselves must be interested in the development of their company, and thus provide further action, blocked the tokens after the company ico.

Investing in an ICO is a good idea, but you have to apply it at the right time.
For example: trend of 2019 is STO, what I see is that many projects are converting models from ICO to STO to raise capital better.

About the deciding factor when choosing projects to invest:
1. Good team.
2. Activity (On telegram, social media, meetup ...)
3. Token usability
4. Review from reputable websites.

Many people here are wearing signatures and promoting ICOs, so they should know that without ICOs their job will not be avaiable, so please, try to be helpful for ICOs  and pray for long life for ICOs !!! .

I believe this will have to do with the type of ICO you want to invest into, there are some ICO that still good despite this bear market, and  there are also some scam ICOs too.

First of all, if you think many of us signature participants would shit themselves if ICO did not exist then you are wrong. Getting involvement in an ICO project shouldn't be seen as a job, more like a outside chance to earn a few bucks through expressing my views while wearing certain campaign's signature. Most of the ICOs are failed these days is because they do not have any substance apart from fake promises, loads of crap about how everything should be based on blockchain. Projects which have working products available or MVP is being developed in a way that as soon the ICO ends- beta version will be available for testing then I'd advertise those projects. I'd also want to hold their tokens too because with more time those projects with working products, services will attract a lot more users thus giving their tokens a good value in the market and it will make my effort to promote or investing in those project worthwhile.

There is nothing wrong when you decide to invest in an ICO, but you should be ready to select good ones through a god research method.
I have seen people invest in ICOs and make their profits, which is contrary to the experiences of some people, who sometimes invest in scam ICOs.
We have had a taste of so many forms in the crypto space, so those with good experience should be able to make the right choice in all ramifications. Considerng the team, use cases, tech and so many other factors.

[Bomber007]

I would say "Yes" because there are many projects out there that still lists in exchanges way above the ICO price, you just have to know how to seperate the wheat from the tar.

[Felipeo]

I think it's still a good option but it's fully depends on you and the ICO you are investing in. Cause now a days most of the successful icons also not that much profitable. For that you have to be choose the best of all successful icos. For last few quarter months we don't see much profit on icos that's don't mean that icos are dead. Maybe there are less successful icos but there is still some project which is very good at their work. So it's you who have to choose the right one to invest. So just do some research on your own before investing your single penny.

Now it is difficult to talk about any specific criteria, market confidence is undermined...

[sergei1703]

I think yes, because still there are good projects, which can bring you a good profit. But of course, it is a time of big investment funds, not solo investors with a 100$ from salary.

No, investing in ICO is very dangerous, especially now. If you want to invest in ICO, then come back here by the end of this year, as soon as the market can begin to recover.

[cryptonight9631]

Yes, but it still depends on the ICO and the team. I am very strict on implementing a "make your own research before investing first". Because my last experience took me a more that 2 figures of usd of losses. But also still depending on the ico's functions and the famous people behind the project which was the team.

[Ronaldcoin2017]

Investing in ico is a good option but we need to be more careful this time due to the continuous growth of the scam ico on the crypto currency feild. Because we can loss a huge amount of profit on it if we don't take good care of choosing the best and legit ico. Investing in ico is really profitable bit it always depend on your strategy.

[UnDerDoG81]

Whether it is dangerous or not depends on your ability to search and identify ICO projects. Recently the Korean ICO was Contents Protocol, which has multiplied 3 times the ICO price after being listed on exchange upbit

I agree with you, if you invest, it is only on the General rise of the market, when any purchased slag can give a considerable profit, and now there is no sense to risk

[Little Mouse]

Investing in ICO is always a good idea but one fact remain to consider is you have to choose a good project. Otherwise, you will not be able to get profit. Most of the projects come up with some bad idea or old idea. Do not get into this. Find out some innovative idea and go for further analysis with their team. If all those are positive, I think ICO is best to get some profit.

[letecia012]

is it a good idea to invest in ICO's and what do you think is a good deciding factor to pick what ICO's to invest in?

Now a days, planning to invest in an ico is not a good choice in my personal opinion. But factor to be considered if you are planning to invest are people behind the project, services it may offer to public and s capacity to compete to other coins which offer same services.

[Spaffin]

Investing in ICO projects is generally a good idea, but not at the current bad time for this. Now investing in ICO is associated with very high risks, and almost no profitability. Now it is really better to buy tokens of good projects after they appear on the stock exchange and it happens tens and hundreds of thousands of times fall in price compared to the price of ICO. If there is a good product in the ICO project, then its tokens should increase well in price over time after the general rise in the cryptocurrency market.

[reynald70]

In my opinion, buying at the ICO now seems unpromising, because most of the prices are always bad when registered in exchange, so I better invest in projects that are officially registered in the exchange market. Because I will get security.
