are ICOs really dead?

[fvb]

It is noticeable that recently the ICO has begun to appear again and there are good projects.  So it's too early to talk about the end of the ICO.  Quality platforms with a promising product, will still delight us.

There are some rumors ongoing, but I am not sure about it. Some individuals are claiming that a criminal group which is behind the hacking of several crypto-currency exchanges have made investments in a number of ICOs, using the stolen ETH and BTC. If this is true, then we have ICOs now used for coin mixing purposes as well.

If it's true, the token that will be rewarded to receive the investment will generate huge fundings, not sure of there's already a clear proof that
hackers will admit this, it's another rumors without any evidence news like this will not have any weight.

I think ICO will not die so simply - some of the projects that will raise funds on their own without participation of the exchange will still appear.
Of course, now they will be much smaller than they were, but rather the question of quality is here - will there be non-scammers or not

Back in 2014, the Ethereum ICO had a hard-cap of just 18 million USD, despite its heavy promotion and years of planning. Compared to that, some of the recent ICOs ask for as much as $200 million or $300 million, without a proper road-map or initial results. Until this situation change, we may not see a recovery in the ICO sector.

I'm not investors, but I joined many bounty campaigns, I must say most of the ICO's are scam because I only received a few rewards from the campaigns, most of the ICO's were failed and some just a scam they were really disappeared. It is really difficult to find a legit ICOs with a good project nowadays.

I think there is no need for you to mention, many people may also realize that ICO has become very bad, too many poor quality projects are constantly appearing on the market, affect many people but even if things have become very bad, we still see the persistence and vitality of ICO, collapsed but never came to death. And I believe that this will continue because the ICO is the place to create more new projects, helping us make more choices, ICO's death only signals the end of the market, and this is very difficult right now

yeah, I get your point buddy, but nobody is saying that ICOs will die permanently.. No, what i believe the op mean is that ICOs will be replaced by STO and IEO and someday, SIEO will also replace STO because all this form of fundraising are still way way better than ICO, heartless scammers has taken advantage of the fact that ICOs aren't regulated to enrich themselves with other people's hard earned money, all this has got to stop.

[Vinalians]

I don't think so. Because I still see those websites that are promoting some ICO projects.  Meaning new ICO projects are still continuing to offer investment and create new platforms. ICO's might fade out soon because of the news about it everywhere that some of them are just crowdfunding to make some money and run with it which I can tell is true. I am a victim of scam ICO but I'd rather not to talk about it.

[lohladex]

ICO is not dead yet though it has not been booming like in the past and the role of the bad actors in the space corrupts the entire system. Majority of ICO  end up not being able to meet up with their softcap while some falsified the amount raised in other to deceive their investors. ICO has not finally dead , they are still alive but only few of this project are trustworthy . Anyone intends investing in ICOS must conduct a thorough research before committing their funds. There are still some better Projects out there , even most of the good ones are raising funds through IEO conducted on Cryptocurrency exchangers.

[kleshovab7]

I get not endowed in ICO representing   one-half a yr, as I achieve not look the location. I missed   many   cash than I realised. Then, I was unsatisfied in the ICO.

[Nuadalanim]

I anticipate ico desire   follow   whether the propose is actually   amble and not victimized to looking   representing   large   nett in a diminutive   age, regrettably   nearly ico are instantly   just   prepared to looking   representing   large   gains and later the ico time   act they record their coin/token on aloof a infrequent exchanger and so   leave-taking their propose, confidently in the forthcoming ico buoy be all the more   greater!

[sidkz]

You look only at the latest projects from ICO no profit for a long time
maybe with time something will improve but now there is no point in investing

[coino.org]

Actually there aren't ICOs no more, because IEO is more common and even those projects launching ICOs, they changed game plan and now they are laucnhing IEO. That's a pattern

[romero121]

ICO's weren't dead, what we experience is the time period to correct the mistakes that happened through ICOs. Now IEO has gained more importance as it gives access and distribution immediately after making an investment. Same time within few days time it is possible to get listed onto exchanges for trading. With this I believe the cycle gets repeated, maybe after years ico will once again gain importance.

You should say that most ICOs with bounty you join have a higher rate of scam than ICOs that do not have a bounty campaign. ICOs with bounty mostly want to attract more investors for many reasons why their projects are not attracted.

[GreatWhip]

My conclusion is that when I lay out in ICO, thither are furthermore   various   advantage in 2017, on the other hand I anticipate this yr, we have to be deliberate to put in the ICO, as not each ICO undertakings   buoy   advantage.

[Centriril]

I postulate you get to be resigned and many   particular in determining an ICO propose. as not each ICOs are poor and not each ICOs die, 2 months since I captivated ICO from Choson and I got a 2x profits from my assets. and instantly I'm fascinated in Velic propose.

[BayAngelo]

as much as the crypto markets is alive, ico is still alive and doing just fine. IEO might be the on top of their game but ico remains. investors wants trust and something they can believe in that;s why they prefer IEO.

[bitkanu]

There are still ICOs being held but overshadowed by the IEO, people everywhere talking about IEO discussing the IEO that have succesfully held and made a quite of ROI. It's not that ICO is going to extinct overnight, some people still favour ICO though but it can't be denied that IEO is selling like a hot cake.
