Are Initial Offerings Overpriced?

[darewaller]

It really depends on the specific company and their vision. If it’s something that’s really great then I think any price will be okay but if that’s not the case then it’s a struggle. I prefer to keep eye on Upcoming ICOs that has great potential and visible, as then you can understand if the price is right or not. It’s so important to analysis this because going into something over-priced is just not a worthy deal no matter what you do.

That is for projects that have vision, most projects right now are overpriced, and I think they just give those quote just to give the investors impression that the product is worth it, but not all those project will even use the money for the project. There are some projects that I have even seen that the amount quoted may even be too small for the kind of project that they wish to release.

Based on the above point, developers don't care because they were never after the release of the project anyway, so they just give price and use it to quickly gather money from the investor and then the exit the market. I think that it is high time that very project that is seeking fund do a thorough analysis of fund they are requesting for, and then from there, we will be able to discern and decide if the project will be worth it or not.

Initial offerings AR sometimes overpriced and sometimes extremely underpriced. If you get lucky, and there is a good team behind an initial offering, then you can make a significant profit. However, if the initial offering is shady or possibly a scam then it's possible that the founders made dump their coins after launching on an exchange, and you will lose all you invested.

For example, look at the altcoins listed on CoinMarketCap. Pay attention to the coin statistics below the price chart. There is an important ROI index that represents the approximate return on investment if it was bought at launch. Some of the top-rated cryptocurrencies have a ROI of +5000%, other coins with low capitalization have a ROI of -95%. Undoubtedly, the initial offerings of such unprofitable projects were incorrectly calculated and extremely overpriced.

Every ICO is overpriced even the private sales are overpriced. Have you ever saw an ICO launched with a bigger price than the initial one ? because I haven't. Every ICO after launch they drop in price like 70%  and from there you must have patience before they reach again the ICO price which most of the time happens but it all depends on the project. Like I said in my previous post , ICO's are kinda dead in 2019 and this is not because of the bear market and because the investors are scared to invest again into risky projects.

No, initial offering has no standart to call  that overprice, its no problem even you have launched your jnitial with $100/token, its fine. But, i think it hard to get return on it.
If you want to buy initial offering, just buy the cheapest one and it have potential, you can get more return and easy to take profit.

I don't think that the Initial offerings are overpriced because that is how the team or the company value their stock or cryptocurrency. The reason why the price of the initial offerings go down is because the people didn't see the same value that the company sees to their product. It is all about having a great research in order to find out if the company is a really good one to invest in their initial offerings so even the price goes down, you can still hold it for a long time.

Lyft, Pinterest, Zoom, Uber… these are the big names went to IPOs recently.
It seems IPOs are roaring back, especially compared with the freezing winter for ICOs.
SophonEX uses data to study whether the winter will also appear for IPOs, and shall we invest in these initial offerings? If so, how?

The valuation of high business is normal. If we feel it is a potential business and has enough factors so that we can invest a lot of money, then we should try our luck.
Like Amazon and Google before it, it's just a repository of 3-4 people struggling to develop their websites. and now it has made a trillion-dollar business. My advice is never to waste money investing in big potential businesses.

Every ICO owner wants their token to be overbought. It is common for the owners to fake their statistics for this purpose and even if they are exposed 99% of the investors would not care because they lack the basic sense of research and analysis of prices. The reason of "rekt" after altcoins is because of the money-grabbing attitude that majority of the people in the crypto world have and the ICO owners prey on it. They are going to overprice their tokens so they get a good amount of money in for their own scam.

Exactly zero number of ICOs are needed for any investors to invest in. None of them ended up with a proper MVP or a reputed project. All of them were waste of time and money but still even today people are buying new ICO token offerings.

[marcuslong]

Ofcourse it is overpriced. They value their coins like they value their project. But some of them just use Initial Offerings to earn money. And after the ICO they will not continue their project. I'm not saying all of them, but mostly of them.

[SummerBliss]

You need to understand that cryptocurrencies are just like other market securities. These too don't have any intrinsic value. Cryptocurrency's value is determined by the reputation and operation of project underlying such coin. Better the project, better the value of coin. Another factor that determines value of coin is public believe in coin. So you can't say ICO are over-priced, it all depends upon how good the coin is. If people take high interest then it's under-priced and vice-versa.

Each ICO is free to determine its minimum. because they have certain standards that they value themselves. and that has no limits. all depends on prospective investors and the project policy itself. now it's up to you to be part of that early investor or not. there is no guarantee that someone will always be successful if you become an initial investor in an ICO.

Ofcourse it is overpriced.

how do you say so ? why do you think they are promoting such bonuses  . and those bonuses are huge .  this should cut the entire cost of thier coins  .

 this is why  i dont think they are over priced but thier pricing are cheap compare to other existing coins on the market .
not only that but thier coins can even become cheaper once they are already listed inside the online exchange  because hunters and other investors are going to pre dump thier hodling   .

I start with ICO for the first time look good with can get much profit after listing on market, after ICOs have low trusted with lower price on market I choose IEOs and getting much profit too, but only on the first time of IEO, after that IEOs become the same situation with ICOs because have lower price after active for trading on market.

[Btcvilla]

Initial exchange overing I think overpriced because many IEO have lower price after listing with market, after get respond positive from investor with higher price of IEO and many IEO coin sold out, they make new IEO but do not control with lower price than IEO after listing on market, less trusted from investor and now IEO not be interested again.

Obviously it is a business plan so they could get more investors.

This is the reason why a lot of investors are losing their money into these projects.

I think you are the one that just invests in these projects since you've seen them have huge bonuses, having a cap of $1M and what they only had is a whitepaper and a plan. As far as I know, there are coins in the past that are already a coin before going to these ICOs, while most of the coins right now are just plans waiting to be laid out after investors pay, that is why it is overpriced.

Initial exchange offering or IEO have over and done, no way to get profit with IEO because have lower price after listing with exchange market, just waiting when IEO have profitable again with big exchange market listed. Now we take moment for trading with altcoin or you can take profit with trading in bitcoin.

As a regular investor we really don’t care much about initial prices of shares or tokens. If we believe in the company where we put our money is, we should be more concern about how the company will generate money and make good revenues.

Every single token offering almost is overpriced. When you have zero product, zero community, zero utility, then your value should be zero. What people are paying for is overhyped tokens that have no other value than to be speculated on at exchanges.

Some projects that already exist and have a product will crowdfund, this is very different but rare.

It depends on how will you valuate a project. If you see a good potential in the project and the initial price is just right then it is not over priced. It all falls on the investors and the team on how will they carry the project after the initial offering, the development and the demand in the project will place the real value of the project in the market.

Yeah, if the project seems convincing and promising then you don't find it over-priced but if the idea doesn't kick you then you often consider it to be an over-priced. Moreover, many of the investors these days feel a little bit risky to invest in the new project as they have started to lose faith in the fresh ones and thus restrict only to the existing ones. Hence, due to the lack of interest, ICO seems quite overpriced...
