I think there is no problem if the ICO has a very large round because maybe their project requires a lot of funds so they give a very long duration to raise money hoping that many investors' funds will come in.
The only reason why they have multiple rounds is to raise more funds or to raise at least the soft cap when the amount raise is not enough. But, I am not seeing success from the ICO this year anymore, that's looking at the majority of the projects and it seems like time has come already that those who wants to run a crowdsale has to already ensure they invested a funds on their own first, which I think would make the project more reliable especially if we can verity the authenticity of the amount invested.

According to my knowledge, crypto projects hold several rounds of IEOs or ICOs in a bid to attract as many as investors and traders. IEO or ICO are the means of collecting funds to support projects. Launching IEO or ICO many times is also a means to advertise a project.

From my point of view, there are 3 issues to discuss: 1- The need and plan/roadmap to do multiple rounds of ICOs. Like traditional investment rounds (Seed, round A, B, C, etc.). I think that if this is documented well in the project whitepaper and business plan and made clear to the investors including clear milestones that are aimed to be achieved per each round of ICOs then it would be trusted to some extent. 2- The mechanism to do it. ICOs by nature are a one time crowdfund mechanism. However, if the portion of tokens offered at each ICO round is quite small and the rest is kept as reserve so as to be released in batches into subsequent ICOs, it might work! 3- Maintaining and increasing the coin price. This is the most important task of the project by making sure to reach the milestones as promised and excellent marketing and PR activities.
Do you have good examples of projects who did this?

Have you heard of ICOs with multiple rounds? Like they raise a certain amount of money now, use that money for primary aims and goals, and then a few months/years down the line (as part of their original plan) launch a second round to fund additional goals and further project development? Just wondering if this is a thing, if so please provide me with some links to projects that have done so.
That defeats the faith in the investors. In the very least if they are planning to do another round of ico that means that the initial investors will loose their stake proportion in the coin and supply will increase .

I agree with this analysis. There are several projects that do multiple rounds also because of uncertain market factors and the developer team is waiting for the right moment. In addition, there is a different bonus distribution each round and this can attract investors because sometimes there are investors who want a large bonus from their investment

Actually something like multiple round for ICO is bad idea. A lot of factors can be reason like what you said and other else. Like when investor must wait longer to sell their tokens. Maybe it is better if ICO really commit with the time, if not reach target, just accept if the project failed and refund investor's money. It is better than force to something like multiple round of ICO.

If it is seriously managed, a project tackled in this way certainly has the best chance of succeeding, as well as outside the crypto world: starting a project, and what is gathered by the first investors allows us to move forward. However, only if it is managed seriously ...

Most ICO in cryptocurrency are running in several rounds. The first round is seed round, then private sale round, and the public sale round. If the ICO has additional round after public sale, i think it is because they still not reached the softcap yet.

I think it is safe to say that multiple rounds of ICOs is not something that is quite common or acceptable, although multiple rounds of fundraising is already implemented in crypto project funding. This is through the already agreed process of Private - Pre-ICO - ICO stages. On the other hand, even if the project initially does not manage to collect the full amount aspired for full fledged development, the team can still make funds from secondary sale if they managed to achieve a token price appreciation based on the project progress and superior performance. Or this would never be enough to make up for the funding deficit in case the ICO did not meet its target or the circumstances changed and required more capital?

thats true. Each project must have divided their tokens as a percentage for various things, for example for team management, advisors, project development, and reserves for other purposes. So, if there is an advanced ICO taken from the reserve it is natural, maybe the project needs additional funding or to attract greater public attention.

I think it is normal for any bounty campaigns. I think they are strategies to attract more investors or just as what you said gain more funds for the development of their projects.

Since the market of ico companies is very much compromised, I very much doubt that spending a few rounds of ico companies, a particular project can attract more investors. In any case, each investor must be either fearless or very confident in the prospects of this project.

Yes I have seen a few of them, according to their road map the first ICO is for starting the platform while setting things in motion such that the platform will run in accordance to the road map, then with successful results they will be able to launch another round of ICO to kick start another level of development within the platform. However, owing to the nature of most of them, some don't even last let alone running another ICO, also owing to the nature of ICOs nowadays even if they should host another, I doubt if investors will consider them as it might also look like exit scam (just saying).

Many times you see some dev and team performing different rounds of ICO because they fail to meet up with their target and in order for them to continue with their development, they have to conduct another ICO.

I can't provide any link now but know some project that did this. Synereo team did this, they raise money from the space atleast twice another project that did this was Fetch.ai, they have raised money last year and this year did another round on Binance through IEO.

Good analysis on your part. I met several projects that carried out a number of stages of ICO. This is usually displayed on its roadmap.As an example the recent Orbis project, which carried out several stages of ICO and plans listing and trading on the big exchanges in november 2019 year

Several project has done that in time past, they can be trusted if they have good and experience team, also when they follow the road map set, early investors can trust them, therefore to reinvest and also invite or encourage new investors will be easy.

Yes I have heard about it in various projects, although I don't know if they later carried it out. That is, after their first ICO the project will kick off then in the future they will conduct another so as to start another phase of development; but the issue there is, what will guarantee they have a good ICO later on? However, if the project is working according to plan and the results is visible for all to see, then maybe investors will be encouraged to participate in the another round of ICO.

I heard that and if I'm not mistaken like the etherbase project they did a round of return last month and raised funds from that round to develop the next program. Q3 in 2020. I think a plan like this is very good because the team is really serious about developing their projects properly.
I am pleased to join the ICO bounty campaign if the team has already worked well in the first round and their token is already being traded on the exchange. This gives confidence that our work will not be in vain. The cryptocurrency market is very unpredictable and gives different results at different times. Therefore, I completely allow repeated rounds of ICO, if only it would benefit the project and cryptocurrency.
