Recently, developers are increasingly refusing to fulfill their promises.

Recently, developers are increasingly refusing their obligations and not afraid of the threat that the project will have a lot of negativity, it seems that they do not think about the future and only hope to raise money and hide.
What do you think?

[Awesomus Maximus]

I think you are very much spot on. Your description seems to fit the majority of ICOs that are presently operating in the crypto space. And not only do they fail to fulfill their obligations, they are also not afraid to promise unrealistic things even though they know they are not able to deliver. That being said, you can find some really decent projects and honest developers every now and then. But in my opinion too many ICOs are scam or borderline scam.

[Ryananda]

There are indeed those who make projects without thinking about the future, but there are also teams that really think about the future but they are also overwhelmed because not many investors believe in the ICO at this time, this must be addressed.

[gowobonyok]

because many investors leave, or little funds are obtained, so they feel that the project failed and should not be continued. As a result, their promises at the beginning of the period all is failed.

And that's why you must choose the trusted developers and try to avoid these scumbags. Remember even a trusted platform can't be trusted for 100% and that's the only good thing to choose by us.
So fur they are changing the roadmap whatever they want.

[Bitknick]

If ICO is not worried about public opinion that may appear as a result of not fulfilled promises, it is likely that the project is Scam!

[hengha]

Because of the lack of regulation in the cryptocurrency market, fraudsters can commit fraud through simple structured projects and are not responsible for it. This is really bad.

[galya.crip]

And you did not notice such a tendency that those projects that are already entering the ICO with the finished product somehow succeed?

Of course, I try to choose, but I do not have much experience in this, and therefore I have already come across such projects.

Crypto space is still mostly unregulated. The devs know they won't be getting punished for their actions, that's why they aren't afraid of anything. A regulated market itself alone won't help much though, people also should smarten up.

I mean those devs only scam the people who wan't to get rich in a month. In other words, devs only scam those who want to scam the devs.

[Abosede]

Most of the do called developers we are having these days are bunch of scammers claiming to be developer,they are only developing fake projects just to take away the money of investors. It is very hard to find genuine project these days,even the ones we have so much hope for ended up been a failure. Most of these developers will only promise what they cannot fulfil and that is why investors keep loosing their money to crypto sphere.

[Omela44]

Such a behavior looks like scam somehow. Collect money and then deliver nothing. Unfortunately many devs from icos seem to think that is ok, but for me, this is and remains a scam.

[Olatunjex]

Developers that behaves like that had such intension before the beginning of the project no real developer will abandon a project he or she has plan for. Therefore we can conclude that any developer that refuse to fulfill his or her promise is a scammer.

[Jadesola]

Developers are increasing, project is increasing yet they are not fulfilling their promise,they are all out to scam investors off their hard earn money.

What do you think?

You need to make it clear, what kind of obligation do you mean?
There might be two possibilities if a project failed, the first one is that it is really failed, it might raise some money but not enough to cover up their initial development. Some or most of the project that failed refund the investors money, and it is not a scam if the project is really failed.
The other one is that the project is a total scam, and no matter what you do, you will not get your money back.

[harapan]

does the project raise enough funds?
I think it's very important to study a project before you start investing, if you don't experience this.

[CryptoAlphaStar]

Missing deadlines is somewhat normal in the software development world.
Another normal thing for early stage start-ups is pivoting and changing the initial idea, product and service.
So, nothing new under the sun.

Well, basically ICO teams are lacking the support to their members especially their developers, this might affect how the developers behave and in such a case, the internal conflicts of the team has a negative impact on how the token will behave in the market. It is necessary that the team members are good for a coin to be successful.

[Georgiyk]

Yes you are right. You accurately described the realities of our time. Why is this so? Because there are no levers of influence on projects. If teams follow the “word = action” rule, then things will change for the better.

Even the most reputable dev that I know sometimes keeps missing deadlines due to something out of their hand, but they're definitely different from those "developers" who want to get a lot of money and then disappear.

While missing deadline sucks, sometimes they're unavoidable. Rather than releasing their software with a lot of bugs, I think it's better if they can make sure everything works properly. But this is no excuse to keep pending your launch date or reaching milestone like that.

One way to prevent developers slacking is to make sure that funding comes after milestone achievement, like what Pledgecamp aim to do.
