The ico trend follows the market chart, if there will be a big bullrun to create alot of FOMO and that will push the ico market at the same time. Remember ico market depends on the hype and that will be so easy to take a conclusion if ico market was following crypto market.

I believe is better ICO market in 2017 most of the ICO are successfully launching their ICO price in the market because at that time crypto market was not suffering of falling their prices and many ICO market are not been affected of it.

[Alluro]

We can see ICO market has fallen with those details. With the market condition, most ICOs have not given a good return on investment to the investors. I don't think the market condition is not the only thing to fall ICOs. Because there are so many scam ICO projects. Then investors are not going to invest in ICO projects.

[glendall]

if I see, in 2019 maybe ICO will be crowded again,
Why? because the market will start to rise,
because if the market rises and the price improves, ICO will also be crowded.
because ICO also depends on market prices,
if the market price falls, investors also have to think 5 times to take part in the ICO.

[fuer44]

inversely proportional. if in 2017 the average ico market rises rapidly, in 2018 it fell dramatically. this could be the effect of the crypto market fall, too, because investor interest in funding to ico was also affected by crypto market conditions at the same time.

The success rate of ICO decreased greatly after each year. In 2018 it seems that ICO has not been noticed too much. And no investor wants to lose money with it, so in 2019 I think something will replace ICO.

[deadthings]

I think that ICO is still at the beginning of its way to success. To achieve it, needs two things: investors education and legal regulations.
Education is needed, so that investors, do not blindly believe every man met that his idea will succeed. They must learn to analyze ICO.
Regulations are needed to protect investors' money from scammers and later to punish these scammers.
When these two things are achieved, the ICO will have an open road to success.

[meanwords]

The difference is that ICOs became stale because of how many ICOs were created and that most of them were scams. 2017 was the year of the ICOs because people are only focused on few that have potential and that the budget of investors was probably focused on those ICOs only.

[Jating]

There will be no stopping ICO this year, imho. We will see the same pattern, lots of useless projects coming along, scams will continue, but there will be a lot of successful and good projects to come.

I tend to believed that the market is not yet saturated, there will be projects that can have real life usage specially in the field of medicine, renewable energy sources, logistics, supply chain and even gambling industry.

I agree the scammer should get a punishment so that there is no repetition. ico is still valuable as long as investors believe that ico has a future, at least products that are useful in the long term.

[jolle123]

the difference between the ICO market in the year 2017 and the year 2018 is very far from the year 2017 is very high and ICOs are great for that person. While in 2018 it is not good for Ico because of the fallen cryptocurrency market.

[mahilchii]

In 2017 ICO's were genuine and a lot of project met the soft cap and their project got succeed similarly in 2018 it was reversed like lot of scam projects got involved and the value of crypto coins were heavily bombared by big whales. let's believe this year there will be lot of descent project of ICO's.

[Pffrt]

If we compare both those, we will end up 2017 as a successful one while in 2018, there was a lot of scam ICO. Anyway, I think STO is going to take the place and ICO will no more be used hugely only because of the fraudness. So, I can't expect something good for ICO in 2019.

[batang_bitcoin]

It will continue as usual and it wont be stopped. I think even the SEC will red flag them, there would still be attempts to do so.

For 2019, I think very few people/investors would be engaged with this type of investment.

[Msworld83]

I don't think there would be much different in 2019 about ICO compare to 2017 as the market seems to determine how they perform in the long run, market this year will still be a bit sluggish but might be a bit better as 2018 was total lost but expecting this year to at least have some gain with the price of market now and that will go a long way with ICO too.

I am not pretty sure for this if the success rate of every ICO depend on the market trends. If the team has a good, positive and confident in promoting the project like having a good strategy, connections and good marketing may not be the reason for a project to fail. It is just that investors are not trusting already the market or any ICO projecta because of the number of scammers and a scam projects.

The distinction between the cryptocurrency market and the ICO in the year 2017 compared to the year 2018. The year 2017 was purely triumphant and bitcoin increases and other coins happened and in the year 2018 was concentrated in bitcoin and cryptocurrency.

[Herbert2020]

ICOs are risky, many of them are pure scams, and all of them are useless because none of them have ever done anything. all they do is create a useless token and get paid for it just to stop working the day they receive the payment. in other words they are getting paid for a one time job!!!

this flawed model is doomed to fail. which is what has been happening from start of 2017. people no longer trust them specially since they stopped being profitable but also because they start to realize how useless they all are.

I think you have the right idea about this, that the 2018 ICO has reduced many fraud projects and been cared by investors more than in 2017. I hope that in 2019 it will continue to be developed. follow this progress of the previous year
