Hardcap ICO is no guarantee that the project will succeed

[rchstr]

Just because the Hard cap had been reached doesnt mean it will be on the top of the market. It also depends on the situation of the market and the current marketing

of the team. I remembered Distributed Credit Chain (DCC) was sold out in just a week last year at the middle of the bear market. I thought this will gonna succeed as

it reaches it's hard cap even on bear market but right now it's price is down multiple times. It was one of the news site for that time and can't imagine that it will not succeed.

It's CEO is just like Justin Sun which is still as young as him but untill now it's like the community of this coin is still now being given attention. I hope this coin recovers

on the next bullrun as I have hold some DCC coins.

ICO is not a guarantee that the project will be successful, because most ICO projects are still limited to concepts and do not have clear references,
but projects that don't make ICO or premine are usually serious and good projects.
and I also agree on this, what about your opinion?

In 2018 most of the project who reached there hard cap still doesn't launch their token into any exchanges which is shows it is just like an advertisement strategy the success doesn't depend on how much runs the project collecting so if in future if you are going to invest and new creta project just research on your own and invest on it.

Projects hitting hardcap can still scam and underperform. Some project that collected good fund couldn't do anything with it, where are Storique, Shivrom and some others? Whereas some projects without ICO or premine are just doing fine, the later have sincerity of purpose and not to scam the public of their money.

[as9ardia]

I myself have a suspicion of some projects that claim their projects have reached HardCap, which is why in every project I always ask "transparency" of the funds they already collected.

besides that, learning the project concept is more important

[gasparik87]

And how can you generally control how money is spent after collecting on ieo / ico? Who prevents to spend teams on cars at home and personal belongings? Without regulation in the market.

[Muzika]

I had read that some ICO are faking their accumulated fund just to raise money more from the investors, they are putting wrong numbers specially they are making it a good numbers so that investors are eager to invest from it.

Hardcap is really not an indication for the success of ICO because that is just a maximum limit.

[babykika2027]

I agree, HC is not a guarantee, but it can be a reference that the project has a good concept, maybe not for the near future, some projects need more time to build their ecosystem, for that it must be more careful if you invest in a project, not tempted with the lure of "hardcap"

[Petchant]

You're absolutely right because I have invested in many projects before that reached hardcap but it later turned out to be shit. A project succeeding all depend on the sincerity and work ethics of the team and developers behind it.

[BlueStackz]

That's true ico or reaching hardcap is not a guarantee that the project will be successful. This is a thing about crypto there are no guarantees at all. The project which looks absolutely successful can be failed, doubtful one can be very successful. There are a lot of things from depends will project successfully or not and luck is very big part of it.

I don’t think luck has anything to do with the success of a project, if they wanted luck, they would have just gone through gambling to raise their fund, this is people’s investment we are talking about, they assured investor that the project will be a successful one and that is why investors gave their money, they would have stated it in their project that the success of the project is based on luck and see if they will get a dime.

Project developers do not need luck, what they need is a working product and they need to be very hardworking to make the product known to the world. A quality product and solid marketing strategy is the key to a successful project.

[Netnox]

You are absolutely correct regarding this issue. The long term success of the project depends a lot on the competence and integrity of the team. A lot of the time, it happens that once the ICO is over, the project goes into hibernation mode. And this has happened to a lot of the promising projects, despite reaching the hard cap limit.

[creeps]

Most of these projects that claim to have hit hard cap are just a sham. They make up this to lure more investors into the project. And even if they acually met hard cap, it's not a guarantee to the success of the project as you said.

Right now this is true since most of the ICO now are keep on claiming that they hit their hardcap, but still their project are down. Hardcap doesn’t mean a good project, you have to look for the manipulation side and ask the community if they really see a good future with it. I have invested before, they hit the hardcap and yet its super cheap coins now luckily to sold it early with a small profit.

For the crypto startups, it is more than a guarantee that their system will rune and they would be able to take care of the costs and other stuff that is needed to launch a coins and make it successful. This has happened in IEOs conducted on the Binance exchange and they have been able to get the hard cap raised within a span of few minutes of seconds for many projects.

[aemma]

That's true, achieveing Hardcap doesn't mean the project will last long term.
I have seen project whose team kicked off with just sotfcap and yet trying their best to offer value to Investors. At the same time, I have seen project who team achieved Hardcap without stress, yet couldn't list on good exchange nor offer any reasonable developement.

Some projects dev and team are really great and they are helpful. And they want to list on a different kind of exchange and that they really want to grow up their project very good position. But some of the projects did not get listed for scamming money. There thinking about to scam. So Hardcap ICO is no guarantee that the project will succeed.

[Chuky92]

You have said it all. There are projects out there without Hardcap performing wonders while being listed on good exchanges. The truth is, Hardcap or not, but with sotfcap a good team will still look for ways to proceed with their aims, while an inefficient team will use see it as an excuse.

its depend on developers work.if they could use collected fund in ico into correct allocation and able to deliver product to investors and crypto community their token will be very well in market.most of investors in market prefer to buy this kind of projects no matter they hardcap or not.

I am agree that reaching hard cap target is not guarantee the project will success and the price will increase when listed in market. I know a few project, reach hard cap target and the project raise more than $50million but the price right now 90% below ICO Price.

[Flezy]

Yes that's true and it depends solely on the team and if they are experienced enough to offer what was in the whitepaper. The truth is most of these team lacks the right knowledge of what they are aiming to offer, how then can they be able to deliver even with Hardcap. In my own opinion, even with sotfcap a good team will always Deliver.

[Emmy92]

That is the plain truth and with no doubt. Most projects achieved this with ease and yet no value still or any tangible developement. I have came across a project that achieved only softcap, got listed on a DEX and did well, before going over to centralized exchange. So I think it all depends on the team and what they really know.

[laredo7mm]

there is no guarantee that a successful project in funding will be successful in carrying out or carrying out the projeck. I am sure that today many have failed when they were indeed successful funding but failed to develop the project
