Because of the scam ICO's out there, ICO's are being generalized as scam already. I don't think I agree with this. Yeah most of the ICO's out there are scam because of lack of support from the investors, lack of funds or lack of development coming from the team.
There are some ICO's out there that are not scam and I think its not good that we generalized all the ICO's. There are some reasons why it becomes a scam.

I agree to this but its not definitely all ICOs are scam. There are still good ICO projects that are not scam but just didn't collect the enough funds to make it continue so it stop and return the funds to investors. But the point is that 4 out of 5 are scams.

maybe the percentage for coins that is really good is only a few percent of the many offers that are a fraud that exists today. I also feel very disappointed with those who are not serious about ico

Well i can't say no to this, yes most of the ICOs are trash but there are still some ICO that is legit and real. The ratio is like 1:10 lol. Since ICOs booming in 2017-2018, many new ICOs pop out everyday and most of them are trash like as you said.

Yes, it is absolutely right that all Initial Coin Offerings are trash. No ICO can be trusted in today's day. Because now the situation has become such that people thought all ICO sense now cheating. But not all ICO scam again. There is a good ICO of 100 fake ICOs. Before investing in ICO, you have to be very careful and have to verify the ICO White Paper well. And I would say it is better not to invest in ICO.
Thank you

Not all but most of them are. They are just using these ICO thing to just collect money. Most of there platforms are impossible to achieve. And because of many unnecessary things they are doing like scamming, stealing, running away funds, the reputation of most ICOs are already ruined.

even though there are currently a lot of ICO projects that only commit fraud, you cannot mention that all ICO projects are garbage, some of which still get trust from investors and end successfully.

This is not true. STOs and IEOs are the parts of Initial Coin Offerings and they are representing its better version. These token offerings are going to be very successful during the next several months and will give great profit.

There are different options about the ICOs. But even though I am not sure that thinking that every ico is a scam is right. Some projects are good, but now it is not the best time for investing

Having a general opinion regarding one theme is not a rational way to deal with it. Regarding failed ICOs i believe the cause of losing money is of the people who do not collect the right infos regarding the campaign.

yes, not only because there are some coins that become trash at the beginning of the offer and make you claim that all the coins are the same because each project has a different investor and team and moves in their respective fields so the potential for progress is different but the main ingredients depend on how the team processes the coins. |

I don't agree with that even though 90% of the ICOS this days are scam but there is still few of the ICO that delivered what they have promise to deliver. Is necessary for the team to raise fund because I believe that is what they will you yo finance the project.

Yes, even those launched on binance like Fetch ai and on bitmax look trashy. To my mind we should do something about that.
Personally I don't even estimate ICOs, I just enter in each launchpad because there is hype

Everyone already knows that 90% of ICO is garbage. But when people understand how to choose the right ICO scammers come out of this industry and everything will be fine.

I may agree with you with that but i think not all ico are trash. It primary depends on the team, at first we can't predict if that ico is going useless or not. Sometimes i get tired with this ico because some are not legit and it's hard to have a good return this day but it does not stop me. Just have a little patience in icos and maybe we can have another run for it.

You're right not all of those ico is trash, some of them doesn't meet the goals of the project that's why ico investors seem to be afraid of another new coming projects. The crowd funds didn't achieve a good sales, so no funds can be raised to support the trading of the new crypto offering. Last 2018, more ico participants were frustrated and until now they've been hoping it will eventually recover from really slow ico development. |

We can't simply say all the ICOs were trash because there were lot of successful tokens were created from this method but in the recent days even the good project failed to reach the goals just because of more scam projects took money from investors which made us to think it is not worth to invest anymore.

I know this. There are some people out there who are generalizing all of the ICO's are trash. There are some factors in order for an ICO to become a success. Investors will play a huge role in an ICO because it will give fuel for the project to develop. No investors = no money therefore, no funds for the project to continue making it a trash. Another is the team itself, are they updating every day or every week. Are they active. If not then we can say that the ICO is a trash. There are some ICO's out there who isn't trash and now continuing their project for the good of the people. |

yes not all ICO is bad and not profitable. we don't assume that all projects will fail, not all of them and we must be smart in choosing so that the project we choose can work well. ICO can still produce good results and still be able to grow, if only there are good reforms to facilitate ICO networks so that many are successful. if fraud will decrease and things will get good and the market starts to rise again, of course many will join the ICO. |

I can say 80% of ICO that are being carried out today are all scams, but I can't say all ICO are scam because the truth is that I actually gained huge amount of money from some ICO tokens I made purchase of in 2017. One of this coin I made purchase is ETH, we all know that ETH was one of the first coin to begin the ICO movement and sold it's coin at a cheap rate during the ICO period and as we all know, the price of ETH went to as high as $1000 in 2017 making me a lot of profit. Another coin I also benefited from is NEO.
