Are ICOs really DEAD or simply cleared a path for better projects?

[qomariah95]

Entering 2018 until now, ICO has indeed experienced a decline with many cases of fraud against investors. Many suffered losses in the ICO, and we can be sure that in 2020 the ICO will really disappear or die. No matter how good the project was born, still when doing ICO it will be difficult to get an injection of funds for project development.

ICO lacks trust that's why so many stop believing in them, as you can see no one is talking about them anymore, even new projects don't use ICO to raise funds anymore, it's something of the past, look at IEO from binance or top exchanges, they are bringing profits for investors

Yes, ICO is a complete waste of investing our money because we have seen a lot of failed projects which most of the people have lost their investment with these fake ICO's. This makes many people lose their faith about the ICO's that's why most of the people showing interest towards IEO's in potential exchanges.

It is always the tragic outcome of this investment industry, one day, something newer and better will change old technologies, outdated options, with the strong appearance and security contracts of IEO, ICO have disappeared in the past few months, only a few projects are still calling for ICO but these are probably the last projects. ICO have lost so much confidence as you said, to fix this mistake, they need to leave in peace, which is also the meaning of the title in this topic, death and revival in a different form, helping to make projects better for investors

want to change the form to IEO or whatever if there are no clear rules and no ethics to make changes. then it will certainly be an obstacle again someday the same as the current ICO. there must be a fundamental change and there must be cooperation among all of them so that the behavior of people who want to profit for a moment can be stopped. the way is to collaborate and provide information on a new project that is growing is a scam or not, because giving information to each other will make those who want to cheat themselves will disappear by themselves due to loss.

The current low tide of ICO may be directly related to the funds in the crypto market. Affected by the bear market in the crypto market, funds on the market have shrunk. The low tide of ICO is normal. When the market returns to normal, I think the ICO will still be lively. After all, there are still many in the market For greedy people, only under legal restrictions, ICOs go formal, so that funds will come in.

ICO is gone because of projects that is scam before. Project manager decided to stop it because it might not succeed since almost all of the investors does not trust ICO anymore. So for sure it will never gonna go back again. We must try to play around the current coins that we have since those are trusted coins.

ICOs are almost dead now, that's obvious even without any graphs. Hope the things will change when the altcoin season comes. Many good projects are delaying their tokensales now, waiting for better times.

I also think this way, that projects that have good management will refrain from launching their products because the current market still does not provide much benefit for them, maybe the investment will not be in the form of ICOs and they will follow a new trend to get investors.

[superving]

Much better if they will rest for long long time cause investors dont have any interest to put thier money on ico projects because most them we all know are scam.

Aside from the current situation we have in the market right now, investors are not so easy to invest like they were before. They tend to be more cautious and it is one of the reason why ICO never succeed after so many scam projects appear.
You mean a new crowdfunding that will be the new trend? It is possible, if it only helps to bring back the confidence of investors from investing in coin offering again.

As I would see it, not all ICOs kicked the bucket in light of the fact that there were some that I knew had the option to accomplish the delicate top objective contrasted with certain activities that did IEO. It may be hard to accomplish the hard top objective when economic situations are bad but rather it requires another undertaking that is acceptable and has an association with a notable organization so investors trust in ICO returns

if there is a successful ico at the moment I think it's difficult friends, because for years ico has been damaged by people who do scams and something like this, and this makes me think it's not easy to restore confidence in this type of offer by ICO but I don't know, maybe this year will there is a successful ICO but as far as I know last year the performance of the ICO has drastically decreased compared to 2018.

Icos have been replaced already by ieos, and while ieos had a certain period in which they were very popular we are experimenting once again with ieos what happened with icos.

People are losing confidence in ieos because they are not performing as expected, and while this may surprise some investors it doesn't really surprise me because the only thing that has changed is the way the developers received the money from investors but the projects behind that process have not changed at all.

IEO's still not a guarantee that they are legit replacement of ICOs so we should still extra careful of IEOs as most scammers are also doing this in those exchanges that list IEO at low listing fee, so they are taking granted for it, also does not guarantee that if they are legit we will have more income because it still depends on their project.

at least we can see the seriousness of the project that will sell IEO. logically, there are no good projects that are willing to have their coins traded on bad exchanges. although with expensive fees if they are serious about looking for investors I think it is important for developers to consider the best exchange. at least it reduces the risk of a scammer.

There are many ieos taking place in bad exchanges and many people are participating in them so that is not really a protection and even if an ico takes place in a good exchange that still does not guarantee anything.

At best those ieos will be slightly better than icos but that is all, even if those coins are not scams you are risking your money in something which has a huge failure rate and in which most investors have lost any interest as they have lost too much money to similar projects.

Perhaps we can say the ICOs is dead, but we won't know if the ICOs will be able to rise again in the future. But indeed, the ICOs has suffered to meet the investor right now, and perhaps they are still trying to survive at the moment. But perhaps the situation will be better in the future for the ICOs, so the ICOs will be able to return in the future and give the investor the profit.

maybe some projects decided to wait for a more stable market
if no one is investing their money now why should they launch an ICO

ICO will never be able to revive as before because people are feeling very bored and do not have any projects that can bring good returns to investors. Currently, the popular form of investment that people are interested in is IEO because this is a new way to make money in this market. There may still be some risks, but this is the only way to stay away from scam projects in the near future.

Personally, I consider IEO an upgraded version of ICO and hope that this form of investment will be mentioned even more because last year there were so many successful projects.

[b1boy]

What is happening now is that there are scam projects everywhere and  those with pitiful thoughts or blockchain innovation information are presently out and the not many that have the genuine information on how things work are the ones thinking of ventures now. And most new projects are copycats and stealing other people’s ideas

[cutesgirl]

It is the same funds in BTC or ETH amount but the fiat rates are half of the previously invested amounts. The rates have dropped a lot and the chances decrease for the new projects to launch the new token sale. The lack of perspective makes it hard to convince crypto investors to invest further.

After increasing with lower price of ethreum many ICO dead because they received payment platform using ethereum and have higher payment fee for listing coin on exchange market and make ICO have lower price after listing, but when ethereum as payment platform stable with higher price I think have possibility to make ICO success on higher price.

I don't think that eth prices affect the ICO growth process, so when you open up some of the existing history that when eth reaches high prices there are some projects that use the eth platform don't achieve success. so think about their platform, not the eth price.
