How to find ICOs worth investing?

[stadus]

Hello! Is it still worth to invest into ICOs? If so, how do I find the good ones? Any recommendations here ?

Forget about icos, scammers abused the the ico model so thoroughly that no one in his right mind is going to invest in a coin that follows that model anymore, the community was noble and they were willing to invest money in those projects in order to speed up the development of this market.

However scammers took advantage of their good will and stole a great deal of all the money ever invested in icos, the community learned their lesson and as such the skepticism surrounding icos is incredibly high.

Most of the ICOs today are dead, knowing most of them turned out scams in the end. Although there are some pretty good left, but you can't rely from it anymore for decent amount of income. So never take the risk if you know you can't get rewarded in the end. However, invest more on those old and established coins, because most of them are still giving good profits. And definitely stay away from memes and shitcoins as they bring unreliable profits at all.

I cannot provide you such details on finding worth investing ICOs as they are not the trend today. Gone are those days where ICOs are indeed giving us reliable source of income. Instead, divert your interest into more worthy investments like sticking to bitcoin and potential altcoins. This way, i can give you assurance that you will never be losing most of the time, provided that you have more patience and definitely more determination to hold despite of the price corrections that may suddenly come along the way.

Yes I agree, everyone should be investing their money in bitcoin, Ethereum, and other good Altcoins such as Cardano, Binance Coin and the rest of them. But don’t forget that airdrops are free to participate, so it wouldn’t be bad to also keep trying your luck. And if you’re not someone who is a day trader and what you’re doing is simply investment which you HODL for a long term, you would have enough time to try other things. The only thing airdrops is the fact that the chances of winning is very low, that’s why a lot of people loses interest in it.

Wasnt it already mentioned million times on the forum, that lately, all the airdrops are waste of time. They are either sort of a competition (and that takes time and funds to win) or scam. And even if someone get an airdrop, how much will he get? 20-50$ worth tokens, while it is not traded and no one know how the amount and value was calculated?

"How to find ICOs worth investing?" - every ICO is worth investing if you believe in its idea. Without a detailed review, choosing ICO is like a blind picking. Anyone will good. When I buy altcoins, I pay more attention on funds, partners and supporters, that are named on projects webpage. If they are huge and popular, then something good might come out in the end. Then make a triple check if this info is legit and make a decision.

Personally, I think that the first thing that you will have to do is to look for a reliable platform where ICOs are being listed, and when you have gotten a good platform where the best airdrops are more likely to be listed, you can then get started from there, but that doesn’t mean that you are safe, you still have to be very selective.

The good thing about getting the right platform is that you will be getting the best and as well most of the ICOs you will find would be legit. After that you have to start properly going through any ICO you see, making sure that every thing about it is good before you sign up for it.

There are a lot of scam ICOs or initial coin offerings/ that is why it is really hard to find a legit one. Before I invest in ico I will search about the team behind it and I think it is less risk if the team behind that ICO has a history of handling a successful ICO or project before, it is also good if there are a working products, or great use case because if there is already a working products that ICO has a small percentage to become scam.

We are still seeing few successful ICOs but the rest are definitely scams. And if you're looking for good and legit ICOs these days, well its really hard to find those as most of the new projects in the market end up scams. So don't expect that they could still be the source of high potential profits when most of them are not even profitable. Instead, get a real investment by investing in bitcoin as it will always be a good source of profits if you happen to sell it at its peak price.

I think ICOs are very dangerous. IEOs are more advantageous. Try joining IEOs of sites like Binance and Coinlist. Kucoin and Gate IEOs also earn very well. You can see how well they earn here: https://cryptorank.io/ieo-platforms-roi Additionally, Tokens you buy with IEOs reach your wallet. But the tokens you buy from ICOs may not reach your wallet. Exchanges provide a quality brokerage service in this regard. I wish you good luck.

ICO's reputations seem badly ended a few years ago when the majority of them are worthless and scamming. I have that experience and it was really my regrets of buying them. That is why for now, I certainly ignore these projects, I'd rather take my time and risk in new projects. I wish not good luck but I wish that people will do the research first before investing as maybe there is something left that is worth investing in.

Yes I agree with you. ICOs are over. But IEOs (or IDOs) continue. They have very good ROIs.

As long as centralized exchanges continue to exist, IEOs will continue to bring profits to investors. Centralized exchange tokens purchased at the right prices are a very good investment tool. I wish you the best of luck in purchasing at the right prices. I guess we need some luck for that (unless we use special technical analysis methods). I wish you a good day.

Are new project still doing ICO? Just Keen to know. I think what most projects now do is a presale launch and IDO. I don't think there's any ICO anywhere. Anyway, I may be wrong. Just speaking from my own observation.
The days of ICO are over.

I haven't invested in an ICO in a long time, and the last time I invested, it ended up being a scam. anyway, i've done some research on it, however it also ended up being a scam. Currently, I rarely participate in ICOs, but maybe there are some ICOs out there that are legit enough to support.
however, the only way to find out if it can make us profitable or not is by doing some research. but, as we know, even doing research does not guarantee that what we invest will be very profitable for us. however, I suggest that when you invest in an ICO, you need to follow all developments of the project. That's so you know when the project is listed, new partnerships, and so on. You can also know the potential of a project by continuing to follow their development.

Try to start exploring projects with these services. They check projects before starting token sales.
But this is not a guarantee of success.

And also look at what projects large cryptocurrency funds are investing in: Andreessen Horowitz, etc.

This.
Weren't they more like "obsolete" after that year? Most of it don't even reach the softcap at all due to how investor already perceived these types of projects.
I even recall a lot of users checking out in here through threads if they're still worth investing. I was like, "this wouldn't last a year or so" then it indeed happened.

The era of investing in ICO is long gone. Investors are more concerned about NFTs and Defi tokens. Its best to understand the trends in the market and align your investments strengths to that which is obtainable. The objective of investing is to earn more from your capital and ICO's don't seem to be a good option to me.

Now we rarely see ICOs, we are in a different era, now the public sale is with the IDO concept, where the project sells it on an incubator or exchange platform that is considered to guarantee the maintenance of a price equal to or higher than the initial purchase, and very many have succeeded in the past. fly high with this concept.

NFT is the new ICO today. It's still almost the same and there's not that much change except they're NFT! IDO and IEO, they're also the same as the ICO.
Still, all of them are all about crowdfunding and there's still a lot of interest from various investors because most of them are still optimistic about the possible outcome of a project. Yet, the scammers are also going with the newest trend for them to fool people, especially the newbies.

               This is definitely not an easy task op. Euther you put in the effort or spend for spoonfed information. First option includes going through lots and lots of startup projects and checking every developing team, every community, road maps, marketing strategies, usecases and tokenomics which is quite a hassle for some while for others not so. It depends on what type of person you are. For the second option however, you just have to pay for some good signals about gems that are about to shoot up(start up projects that have great potential or low cap coins) and do nothing but buy what you're being told to. Here, all the hassle from the first option is done by the one beung paid by you so you don't have to move your lazy ass and just expect money to rain on you. Of course, you still have to beware of scams so be sure to find a credible source before payung and using their services. Hope this helps

Now there are no investors who want to put their money in the ICO, even now there is an ICO offer that promises to give a 1000% reward or get 10x coins after investing, too many scams so investors prefer to invest in IDO which is more secure and can be sold without have to wait like in ICO.

Scam projects can't just be found in ICO alone as it was spread across the market. I know investing in ICO projects isn't worth it but never put everything turn to zero coz there are some to be found great but the chances are close to zero and that was a big problem and really challenging to find them. And instead of spending our precious time digging them, better to invest known coins and to increase our chances to gain a profit.

Here's how to identify an ICO worth investing in.
1. studying the project’s whitepaper is essential as it is a document that tells potential investors about the project’s architecture, the market, and the risks.
2. The developers are not anonymous and the background of each project team member.
3. You should avoid uncapped ICO as you won’t know how much tokens will be created during the presale and crowd-sale.
4. Check how active this token’s community is on different forums such as Bitcointalk or their Slack.
5. You should be completely aware of what happens after the ICO is over and how the generated funds will be used.
6. It’s always a good idea to check out how equity and ownership are distributed among the founding members.
7. Do not invest unless there is a product or you can see clear signs of the product being built.
8. Having a roadmap is also crucial for the success of the ICO.

Now is not the time to invest in ICOs from last year ICOs are no longer the choice of investors because ICOs are dead, to invest in the future we can see current trends such as in NFT or the metaverse, but we must look in more detail at the projects we will invest in, especially in the destination and developers and has a team that is experienced in crypto.

I would guess that pre-sale is still considered ICO in some sort of way. Doesn't mean that it would be considered ICO just because it is named that way is a very old school approach and we should be approaching every pre-sale type of situation like ICO, and there are tons of them out there.

I believe that we are getting a lot, we have 17k+ projects just on CMC and I have seen plenty of projects that have been out of CMC and not get listed, which means there must be something like 30k+ at the very least projects. That must be like at least 5k+ projects every year, and that means we are talking about 10+ project every single day, and most of them have pre-sale.

Assuming at least 10 per day, that is seriously insanely good and I would be very proud to say that I do not lose money on most of them because I avoid investing into rug pulls but it shows you how much we need to be careful.

It is a thing of the past and not worth our time and money to study. Currently, there are many new and profitable ways to approach projects, such as IEO, IDO, Parachain, lockdrop, stake, etc., but in my opinion, new projects also have many risks if the criteria are met. Personally, I prefer projects that already have products and stable performance in the market rather than starting new projects from the beginning.
