In which ICO to invest ?

[Wysi]

We all think ICO has become a thing of past but unfortunately it's some greedy scammers who looted people and abandoned the projects in middle or listed them in some exchanges with low volume like MCX, etc wherein investors have lost huge Chuck and became skeptic about ICO projects. Now we have IEO, IDOs and it's bit difficult to be a part of these programs.

Hi everyone

we hear less about ICOs than a few years ago. I Know that several website exist where we can find information about the next ICO, but who is going to invest in some of them in the following weeks ? Which one and why ?

thanks

I would say that the days of the traditional ICOs, where  projects collected a huge amount of money like the filecoin ICO or the Tezos ICO back in 2017 or so are pretty over. Nowadays we are having private sales and public sales that are collecting way less money then back then but of course are more exclusive and for most of them you have to join one of those private sale groups or launchpads like DuckDao, Poolz or Polkastarter. For each of those launchpads you have to own their native token so it is almost impossible to be part of every launchpad because that would be extremely expensive. So you just have to choose for yourself.

ICOs and IEOs has left the shore most investors now dwell more on NFTs but every process is risky and opened to scammers so I don't mind listing some ICOs I would include to my project once I am done doing my research although the research isn't still satisfactory in terms of investment advice but it would help guide me on more riskiest ICOs

But with so many choices like this it makes investors very dizzy to choose a project that actually produces something big. there are some projects that look good with ongoing ICOs but end up with bad things or other problems. so this becomes more difficult in my opinion. You can imagine many investors complaining about what they have invested but not getting anything.

Despite the large offer, in fact it is very difficult to buy coins of a good project. Where we see well-known funds among investors, you will be able to buy coins only at the stage of public sale. But one wish will not be enough, you will need more luck to win a small allocation in the lottery.

ICO is intended for raising in a project. when the project is launched on several social media, of course investors and crypto enthusiasts will invest if they are interested in the project holding ICO. with the aim that if the project is successfully listed on the exchange, they will benefit from their participation when making purchases in the ICO

It all depends on the ICO that what you choice, you must research ICO who has a good future plan and read carefully whitepaper, all of which have point factors such as :

• Investors
  
• Partners
• Technology ecosystem used

Every choice must be researched by yourself to minimize the risk you get because whatever your choice is, it is your responsibility

ICOs of 2017 is like NFTs of 2021. Mostly pump and dumps.

Simple and easy answer. Good to see that at least some people in this forum have actually been using their intellect properly.

Know the people behind them. It is critical to know the nature of the company and the teams behind ICOs. ...

Team is good but even then the coin can fail because of advisors dumping their tokens, which is typically the case when their lock in period ends. The investors never know this and they think the dump was due to bounty hunters. The reality is different, but it is easy to blame the hunters.

Go for disruptive concepts. ...

Rarely, my friend do such concepts actually happen to crypto. They would rather go with the mainstream IPO market.

Evaluate the technology. ...
Nitpick the white paper. ...
Know what the coins are for.

Most retail investors cannot evaluate properly, though this is not their mistake, it was never their job in the first place. However going through whitepaper will never give you the actual idea of what the project is doing. Today it is very easy to copy paste a whitepaper or modify a copied whitepaper to fit your project. Whether it will deliver or not, is a different thing.

ICOs aren't safe, the project can just walk away with your money and often they want you to give KYC. IDOs are more secure and they don't require KYC, they are managed by smart contracts. My favorite IDO platform is Skyward Finance. I've found some real gems on there, like OCT and Paras. OCT for example is competing with Polkadot and it's really under the radar. I easily doubled my money so far plus I can stake OCT in Ref Finance for additional rewards. OCT staking is coming soon and they are giving away 200k USD in OCT tokens to participants in the most recent Skyward IDO for DIEP token.

I would actually recommend staying away from anything which isn't Defi. That being said, you also need to know the quality of a project before you invest. Look at the team, their experience, their work and how much of work they are putting in, on a daily basis. Secondly look at the people backing them. If you can't find any institutional investors or big name partners backing them, then also stay away.

If they are worth their salt then they will have had an amazing presale/private sale. If they come to the public crowdsale phase with but only lint in their pockets... Well.. That just says everything about them you need to know.

DYOR.

This is the ideal, however I can say that there are many good ways to find ICO projects that can be reliable:

1.-Search in Bitcointalk, here the guarantee is greater, since many members are aware of their own investigations and are hardly wrong.

2-Search in CMC the projects that are currently being top, and see them, investigate them and decide if it is good to make an investment or not.

If at least these two are met, it is likely to find an ICO project that can benefit, however the trend is not based on ICOs, the trend is currently taking place in NFT games and everything that has to do with NFTs.
