Don't try to find an ICO. Find an IEO. I personally would advise you learn trading more actively then IEO investing. This is a way to earn much more significant profit but you need to get some strong skills.

These are all illegal central emitted  securities if not registered due to SEC rules and traded by regulated security exchange.

Didn't know the ICOs still exist apart from IEOs.
Putting up research would do, but be careful not to get deceived by the ratings of ICOs. Remember scammers aren't gonna do it unprepared, as they might make a paid review just for the so called "advisor" to rate their project good even if it's BS like you mentioned.

well, I agree with what you say because today many people and investors are more supportive of the IEO method because with the IEO can convince investors to invest in a project, and many IEOs are sold out immediately when offered at a trusted exchange .

ICOs trend has declined, However, this is actually a good thing for the future of cryptocurrencies. Fewer ICOs mean the quality of ICOs is going to increase. But like others said here IEO are the new way to raise funds and quit popular now a days. As This reduces the chances of fraud, simplifying certain regulatory requirements and taking advantage of an already-established user base.

Hi, guys, I want to ask how do I avoid ICO scams...

Are there any good ICO's left? or is the market flooded with bullshit coins?



I thought ICO's time are over. Cheesy Cheesy Cause it's rare to see any ICO project now these days. Because of lot of scam ico project people lost their faith on it. That's why now upcoming projects and investor choosing IEO (Initial Exchange Offering) platform. Which is also following ICO's path because of lot shit exchanges. In that case i will advise to choose reputed exchange or ieo platform like Binance, Kucoin or Okex etc. And for ICO you can see this helpful article for how to find out a good ico project and avoid scam ico projects.

if indeed the IEO that they hold in a trusted exchange such as binance, kucoin, okex is better, but it is better to stay away from IEO in a market that has a low volume because it is difficult to get funds and there will certainly be a delay in the distribution and listing market, because I have often followed the development of IEO in markets that have low volumes

IEO is the same as ICO but it gets guarantee from the exchange site to be listed instantly. Investing in IEO that runs on the crap exchange site will also bring you to the big loses.
It doesn't need a lot of skill but it's better to participated in IEO that runs on the major exchange site.

with the latest developments IEO indeed aims to update and improve with a more reliable goal. but if you look at its development it seems that what you say is the truth. IEO's investment in a bad exchange site cannot solve the things that happened when ICO began to be abandoned because of a lot of fraud.
but the reality is that many IEOs are starting to follow suit like ICO, so it seems that this dilemma continues.
I agree that if I participate in IEO, it should be on a proven exchange site to reduce dishonesty. but once again IEO is also not a guarantee and still must be analyzed properly.

Just looking for reliable exchanges and participating in their IEO, you're sure to be a lot safer than investing in an ICO. 99.99% of ICOs are scams so don't waste your time with them.

There are no ICOs right now even if my search not mistake. In fact i always search a good project where i can investing after that if a project adding IEO in popular exchange then i can consider buying token without confusion. Even now i see the crypto market totally silent about ICOs and maybe gone to death.

Market is definitely filled with useless garbage coins but this does not mean that ICO are scam. There are still some decent projects and investing in their ico can be fruitful but the main issue is to identify the right project. I think we need to study the project deeply and if it has some unique idea with a talented team , it can be a good project.

I think it's best to just invest on established coins or bitcoin, the risk is so high if you invest on ico's right now, there's a high chance the price will take a nosedive after hitting the market because of investors looking to make a quick profit. You can also invest in rising coins if you're willing to take the risk.

There are still some projects that conducted ICO's became successful but let's be honest ICO as a way to raise founds is slowly dying or has already died off, but Holding an IEO does not necessarily mean that it would 100% success wether it is in good and reputable exchange it still depends how the marketing will go.

Nice reason, why we see so many ICOs - BitCoin could do it all - no other coin needed

but - that stream got blocked and ppl HAD to fork off / or let btc softly fork off, depends how you sse it (legal eyes, illegal eyes,...)

The reason

Honestly, saying there has been no good ICO in the last 2 year except some few one's . If you wanted to earn something the better option for investing in CMC top 20 coins which are good enough for you 2nd is IEO also a good option . Please do your own research before invest  any coin . Thanks

ICO gloory days are over and it will be better to trade an already listed project with good research than looking for an ico to buy.

It is really tough to see a good ico these days as the existing ico projects which launched during 2018  are finding it tough to get through the ever lasting crypto winter but there are some genuine projects if you research carefully.
Never ever try to participate in ICO projects again because it is not worth it anymore even you participate in a long period projects. So if you are still interested to participate in bounty campaigns you should only try IEO, even there are some scam projects there, but some of it are legitimate and you can still accept good rewards from them.

Initial coin offerings are long dead and I can't advise you to invest or buy in any company offering sales by itself. although even the initial coin offering is not that much trusted anymore I think its way better than investing in an initial coin offering

Actually, there are only few ICOs exist nowadays because peoples already lost interest in ICO.
You may investing in IEO instead of ICO for now, it is better than ICO. In IEO, the exchange that list the project already done their research on the project so they can verify the project is not scam, hopefully.
