Who said that ICOs are dead?

[Free1bitco.in]

ICO is not dead, but fake projects that want to hold an ICO and don't get funding are the ones who say ICO is dead, because scammers are getting harder and harder to get money.
If the project is good, whatever fundraising method is sure to be successful.

Currently, Many ICO projects are unsuccessful, not achieving targets, I think it's because investors no longer trust ICO projects, So when trust is gone then I think it will make the project die. Now the IEO project is better than the ICO project. Investors are already comfortable with the IEO project. Hopefully what the OP says is the real truth.

so far, this is the first ICO I have heard successfully raised millions of dollars in 2019-2020. however, several other ICOs did not even reach the $ 500k investment. well, 1 successful ICO won't necessarily make another ICO successful. so, I think, we need lots of ICOs to say that ICOs are back victorious.

will not die as long as development in crypto will continue, will continue to make new projects until all things are met.
will not stop until really no further development is needed.
and I doubt if that will stop.

Just because this particular ico had raised a decent huge amount in few hours does not mean that ico is back, investors trusted the project, who knows maybe the project has vitalik approval because the address that bought. Out of 100 ico this year I guess less than 30% made it through, people don't have trust again in ICO like before

[kateycoin]

ICO is not dead but there so few ICO  project you will see now a days unlike before,maybe theres some reason and because of some new way of funding like IEO and etc. But still we can see some good project with ICO hopefully they will succeed to their goals on their projects.

[raidarksword]

Yes, ICOs are dead because it's not trustworthy anymore with investors and many scammed projects came from ICOs crowdfunding way back then. That moment investors lost it's interests on ICOs because of greedy people behind the projects. IEO now is on trend wherein it can give assurance to investors and supporters they are in good hands especially if IEOs are conducted on big exchange like Binance. Nevertheless, congratulations of having raised that a lot, it means investors are in full faith and trust.

Few crypto projects are so good that they can become successful with any fund raising platform, either it's ICO, IEO, STO or whatever, action speaks louder than voice, see who are the founder of Avalanche? I don't expect anything more than massive sold out

[Kvalentine]

ICO is dead, that's my own final answer, don't praise ICO because avalanche raise fund successfully using ICO, look at avalanche project, it's a rare and special crypto project, it can use any crowdfunding platform and raise money successfully, investors aren't blind

[Doranile432]

Too many investors lose money to ICO, you can't expect a success of one ICO project to wipe that out, OP say that to all those who invested in One coin and Bitconnet among other big ICO scams, I'm happy AVA is big huge and different, this kind of project comes once in a year or two

and I doubt if that will stop.

It will not stop, but those who support it will be limited. ICO turns into STO, then IEO they might change their format but in the end they will still be connected into ICO that creates scammy projects, we were done to experiencing it but others might still new to them their schemes if they will not do research thoroughly. It will be dead to those who been victim ed by many previous projects that stop and run away without rewarding their investors. I just hope era of scammers will end for us to truly invest in projects that are worthy to be monitored, since many look into it as a waste of time and just focus and investing in other or doing trading only.

therefore now the offer of coins or tokens with a fundraising method that has the aim to speed up the funds can be collected is now no longer successful because what I know is that currently only using IEO is still successful even though only a few projects.

This public ICO has raised $42 million in under 4.5 hours. This might imply that the another cryptocoin bull market is beginning, I reckon. The pumps are returning hehehe.



Blockchain project Avalanche raises $42 million in a public token sale

Blockchain project Avalanche, spearheaded by Cornell computer science professor Emin Gün Sirer, raised $42 million in a public token sale last week.

The amount was collected in just under 4.5 hours on July 15, AVA Labs announced on Wednesday. There were 72 million Avalanche (AVAX) tokens available for sale, and investors from 100 countries grabbed all of it. Some of the funds also came from Ethereum’s Genesis address.

I'm very sure that Avalanche would have raised more if the project use IEO instead, I know the project is a big well developed project but some still find it hard to invest simply because they use ICO which 90% of investors have zero their mind on already

ICO is dead, that's my own final answer, don't praise ICO because avalanche raise fund successfully using ICO, look at avalanche project, it's a rare and special crypto project, it can use any crowdfunding platform and raise money successfully, investors aren't blind

There are some becomes successful it really matters to never trust a project at first because mostly it ends up a dead project. This is very important not to invest since Icos these days are not worth investing. Well, all I can say there is a risk investing it is on us to recheck the project.

I think only a few projects that are truly trusted and can be successful as implemented through the IEO method because when using the ICO method nothing has been successful.

ICO is currently not a consideration of investors. will end badly if there are developers who think ICO will succeed. IEO looks better at selecting good projects. those who are successful in large exchanges certainly have big opportunities. but those who succeed in small exchanges, there are still doubts there.

[ethereumhunter]

I think the current ICO projects are very risky because it seems that investors are no longer interested in investing. However, in recent times a lot of Defi projects are making the investment trend return and if compared, the Defi projects are no different from ICO projects. I believe that if there are many successful Defi projects then the ICO will surely revive again and the ETH price will soon reach a new ATH .

Defi project can succeed, if the project can give benefits to the investor and not just the promises because the investor is tired to chase the promises. They need real proof from the project to invest in the project, and many of them want to make money from investing. But if the ethereum can not surpass the price now, and still increase to the high price, it will be hard to Defi or IEO or even ICO to reach success. Maybe those projects will need a longer time than they can expect.

as far as I understand, in 2017, ICO did use ethereum as an option for investment, but now there are already quite a lot of types of potential coins, so if ICO returns, not necessarily the choice of using its investment using ethereum alone, there could be additions such as another popular altcoin. however, it is quite difficult to see ICO again if we know that there is an IEO that has a more complete system.

But still, it is difficult if the ICO is not using ethereum because ethereum is the king for the altcoins or tokens. So the project under the ethereum network will still continue, and maybe we will see something different from the new project in the future. This situation is not the same as the last few years because the crypto has been evolving to better, and every project wants to get success.

Because investors are now reluctant to invest in ico
As you may know, a lot of projects over the last few years have scam out of ICOs. Where investors can't afford to invest, there is no need to worry about investing in ICOs, and this has changed with the times.

However at the moment projects are definitely adopting IEOs where the amount has dropped drastically scamming so investors are not thinking about ICOs now.

[key4co.in]

The huge success of avalanche token sale amazed me, the hype around that project was massive, hence the reason why it sold out very fast. ICO is coming back gradually, some projects recently under DEFI category have also raised funds just by token sale on their website without needing an exchange to run IEO.

[btcholder]

I heard about this project couple times. But it's really unbelievable that they raised huge amount of money within very short time. Whatever in my opinion ICO is dead. It's rare to see this kinda success project which based on ICO platform. People were so excited about ICO before 2018 but after so many scam projects ICO almost gone. The main fact is if the project is legit no matter which way they choose for their token sale they will be success. Cause people just believe in real and legit projects.

" Ico is dead "

These words indicate that many people are already fed up with the ICO, they are often deceived and disadvantaged so that their trust fades. even so, it is still among the potential ICOs in the future. like Ico AVA tokens, hopefully they can achieve success. because this platform is designed to unite the DeFi application and blockchain deployment in one ecosystem that can be scaled and interoperable. isn't that amazing? so it's natural that many are interested

[LogitechMouse]

Those people saying that ICO's are dead completely are probably the ones who got scammed in investing in an ICO or those bounty hunters who didn't get paid for their efforts during the bounty campaign of the project.

In my part, I don't see that ICO's are dead already. Its just that the success rate of the project plummeted because of the scams that have been happened that affected the confidence of the investor in investing into new projects. Yes there are still some ICO's that are becoming successful and one of that is the one that OP posted. I'm not familiar with the project though since I stopped tracking some new projects already but hoping this will not be a scam or a dead coin in the future.
