What are ICOs success factors?

[andika2018]

In the early days of ICO especially in 2017, I have invested as I see people are also confident of investing.

But late 2018 to this year, I am not anymore participating in ICO, no promoting it in the bounty campaign, I believe ICO has already lost its popularity and the market is already taken away by exchanges with their IEO platform, we cannot deny that as the facts would tell based on the results of the ICO and IEO when compared, and we've seen lots of successful IEO than ICO this year.

2017 is a good year for ICO investors because almost all of the price tokens go up high. The current condition is not good for ICO because investors are afraid because of the many ICO scams that occurred last year and now investors prefer the IEO method because listing is faster in the market

ICO is popular back then, I still remember when WAVES got their ICO, which is now at Rank 15 at CMC, ICO projects promote innovative ideas and products, some succeed but most fail due to the uncontrollable market status, lack of fundings and non-working and irrelevant products. Most people lost their trust in ICO so they switch to IEO since faster listing give them the results in no time.

I also invested in many successful projects in 2017, but unfortunately I didn’t take profits, now the cost of coins is very low, I think that the factor of a successful ICO is the state of the market.

That is not a successful project because a successful project is one that should be able to put smile on investors face and make them proud for being a part of the project, but right now, how many projects are actually making their investors happy, they are only successful because they are able to raise the fund needed and then go on an exchange to list, But what of the real use case of the project? Have they ever been successful in that aspect

Many of us attribute their success to the fact that they were listed on an exchange but that is not right, it is what they continue to do and how they continue to make the word see their quality service and product after listing that I call a success and only few project have been able to prove themselves right in that regards.

Factors that cause ICO success

• The purpose of a good project
• Experienced team
• Hype, because with high Hype all projects will always be successful

[baigreen]

Finding a quality project is too hard today. I have a lot of points on which I look. Let's say the number of telegrams or the number of visits to the project site. Documents and team history. Here is my strategy for finding quality investment projects.

I have invested in many ICO. Eth one of the well known in this, but I have also been scammed by scammer projects, and now I am even switching over IEO. IEO is freer from scams, any scams from IEO is yet to be heard off, so IEO all the way man.

[pragna]

I could not understand why you thinking for ICO at this time when IEO is remarkable in market instead of ICO. People always think next option which is better as we are loving crypto instead of traditional transaction system. So this is high time to love IEO and IEO market investment.

[anggaem]

I think hype will make ICO successful, but ICO success does not guarantee success when running a project.
I'm already bored with ICO and I think it's time not to accept ico anymore

Yes, now IEO is the best, but before there were many scammers, ICO was also a lot of the best,
so many investors made profits through ICO investments.

Since the emergence of the IEO concept, I am more interested in the concept IEO than the ICO concept. As long as I am involved in investment, I no longer buy coins from ICO.
You who are making a scientific research on ICO, for me, that's good. Because ICO has dominated so much in the past.

The big and major factor of successful Ico is the bull market with a lot of exciting investors)

[acoin2000]

Yes, i invest in ICO before, and i lost my invest, all ICO i invested scam or fail
i now invest in IEO and i am waiting.

The success factor, is product or service produced, then the big media will review, smart or big investors trust the news related to crypto media, then the small investor will follow and get positive reviews from the community.

The research seems educational but it only focuses on finding the elements that are essential for an ICO to become successful which

is more partial to the team that conducted it. At least the research should have included the plight of those poor investors who have

chosen to invest and hold their stakes in a hyped ICO that successfully managed to generate large funding but did poor project

development or hasn't produced a final product yet to the dismay of its investors.

I followed the link to take the survey. I answered the first question, “no,” and the survey ended

Exactly.
The criterion for the success of ICO is to reach a hard cap. The method of crowdfunding is not important. it is important how the team will work after the end of ICO, STO, IEO.

Most of the comments on this thread are about IEOs. But I'm pretty sure that there are/ there will be good ICOs that are going to come up. As long as they have a really good marketing, a good and working product, and have a transparency to the investors. I treat IEOs and ICOs at the same level since I don't always have a good experience with IEOs.

There's a lots of talk regarding to IEO's since the investors are switching to this venue of investment after seeing good outcome from those projects that's being held inside a well known exchanges, but it's not the end for ICO's there's still projects that will appear and provide useful finished products. It will be for those investors who still have a good plans to continue working with offered product to support for future success.

well, basicly the main purpose from ICO and IEO is only to collecting money from the investors
but with different methode, thats why before you drop your money on ICO or IEO project, you must do your own research buddy
anyway in my opinion, if an ICO project bring a pure idea with new features and tech, i believe the ICO will be success,,

[bustedsynx]

You can't have an honest survey with altcoin bagholders. It's like asking a poor man what is the secret to making a million dollars. You probably need to talk to Ethereum heads or similar coin teams with a positive ROI in their coins.

[maman567]

Still not find which one best ICO last one year, maybe still running the best ICO project and have good schedule for listing their coin on big exchange market.
