Scammers are to be blame

[meliodas]

I don't think that the scammers are only to be blame for this type of activity. I think it is also good if we will blame the people who get scammed by these scammers for not doing their job to do some research first before trusting these kind of scammers. Scammers are now smarter because of this type of technology but it is not an excuse to get left behind, we should also improve our knowledge to avoid scam like this.

but as a rule, we gain knowledge only through experience. if a person has just entered the market and wants to make money in bounty campaigns, you cannot blame him for not understanding which project is a scammer and which one is good

[J1mb0]

You can find scammers anywhere in your life, currently we have no way to remove them so it is best to be wary. Try to get into the habit of digging in before investing in a project, if all of us are alert, the scammers will not get anyone and they will disappear.

[FLHippy]

Most of scammers are left this market. If you want to get atleast some money for your startup, you need to invest and convince reputable exchange as Binance or Bittrex that you are worth it.

[bgaf]

You can't set standards on the other project and compared it with Binance. It is a monster exchange and very high popular, so obviously  they can really do a well success token sale plus they have a huge trader on their market unlike new projects that pursue ICO on some minor platform or own domain cannot really judge them with it since they are trying to survive their own project. Scammers are obviously the one to blame and its hard yo grasp them nowadays.

Scammers ruined the crypto market, ICO market's reputation. For continuous ICO Scam, last year most of the investors gave up from investing and now the potential ICO market almost-dead! So, scammers, Greedy people are to be blamed.

Its look like the current regulation is not enough against this successful scammers so better if the government will improve more the existing policies regarding the permit to operate of every project. We may also become more vigilant in selecting a project to avoid of become a victim of scam or we may try joining an IEO instead of ICO as they say that the new platform is proven safe for the investors.

The key to preventing scammers is regulation from the government because with regulations, scammers will get legal punishment. But due to the absence of clear regulations, IEO is indeed a good alternative because the exchanger will verify the developer team or the project being carried out

Research is important before investing so that we are not fooled. Scammers may be blamed but scammers exist because there is no government regulation or clear rules regarding the sale of tokens. Even small exchangers sometimes don't see the project but just want to get a listing fee

[Ducky1]

I agree, scammers have greatly influenced investor confidence and this is very annoying. But it seems to me it will be difficult to exclude them from cryptocurrency.

[The Cryptologist]

Really if there is anyway to erase scammers off crypto space it would have been better, 2019 would have bring better results for altcoins if not for scam projects everywhere scamming new investors, now scammers are scaring off new crypto investors wannabe since there is no trust or whatsoever and investors don't want to lose money either, whatever the next altcoin results is going to be will not be huge as many expected due to investors not trusting new altcoins anymore, no wonder why binance launchpads are selling out in seconds.

If crypto space is just like how binance managed IEO project in return for their own reputation altcoins will be skyrocketing right now because much more money will flow in, exchanges like binance is giving out trust investment that i really hope the entire altcoin space can do the same but its a shame scammers are robbing off the trust

It's a shame that the Binance you are applauding has also done the same. One of their last one which is Perlin were a spit in the face of the investors because the devs of the project did not even care to hire market makers to take care of its price.  Binance is a good exchange but I already know that sooner or later that bad projects will be listed on their IEOs and it just really happened.

Not true, the Internet and electronic forms of money have facilitated the work of scammers, most of the money stolen around the world is in the form of electronic money and this is done by hackers stealing the information from their legitimate owners and then they use it to obtain money, does it sound familiar? Scammers in this market do the same and despite all the regulations most of the time hackers get away with their crimes in fiat, so what makes you think that regulations will stop scammers in this market.

People who getting scammed are to be blamed than anyone because they are giving chances for the scammers to make money by their ignorance while choosing a project,don't believe on ICOs as well their project can also turns into scam.

[Greatchu]

No matter how many scammers are here in crypto space lets keep focusing on selecting good projects i belief that one way or the other we will get paid of our endurance on day, investors are getting more smart and only newbies are falling victims because they don't want to learn but its only a matter of time before scammers will have nothing left to use for deceiving people, they will surely run out of tricks

[Dart18]

Yeah.
All money went back to cash instead of just rotating here in the crypto space.
They took want BTC and ETH to be used by buying their tokens and then cashing it out to fiat.
Now, it also hurt the market of both main players and it will be like a domino effect.

But we cannot get it back, all we could do is make some move to pull another investor and teach them to not make the same mistake.

[cunguks]

because there is an opportunity they take advantage of. we cannot fully blame a scammer. maybe when we are in their position, we can act the same as they do. we can even do it more cruelly.
let's just say this is part of the paradigm of the crypto market movement. we must stay abreast of and enjoy this process.

I really hope that in the crypto space a concept and concept like Binance has emerged...
This will eliminate fraud by automatically crypto room.

[gunhell16]

2019 will be much brighter, if there are no scammers 2018 will not be that worst.

if not for scam projects everywhere scamming new investors, now scammers are scaring off new crypto investors wannabe since there is no trust or whatsoever and investors don't want to lose money either, whatever the next altcoin results is going to be will not be huge as many expected due to investors not trusting new altcoins anymore, no wonder why binance launchpads are selling out in seconds.

This is the chance we are holding for now to get back on good community and market. investors went out due to scam ICO. now we are having IEO, i hope this will get us up and bring the shine again.

We will see the effect of this in the near future. as of now i hope there will be more project to go IEO and be successful.

It will be almost impossible to filter out scammers from legit projects but there are ways. One is to confirm the identity of the people behind the project. Not all pictures of the CEO or the dev team you see are legit. I have a friend that encountered a project that is actually a scam and they used stolen pictures from other legit projects.

I am not going to deny that those that lose their money to scammers share some responsibility since they are not doing their due diligence when sending their money to people that have no idea about how to make a successful project, but you cannot place all the responsibility on the victims, scammers are to blame not only for those specific losses but they are also to blame for the lack of confidence that investors have on new projects and the slow speed in which the market is recovering.

[Arsenyo]

Unfortunately, scammers are everywhere, in every part of our life. And yes, they ruined crypto market. It is so difficult to avoid scam projects, that we fall for the same trick again and again. Can we prevent scam projects? No. Can we totally get rid of them? No. The only thing that we can do is to be as much careful as possible.
