Investing in seed rounds

[zonefloor]

As you said, we are in the bear season right now and it is difficult for such a thing to be possible. Can't it, of course it can. However, during bear seasons, investors do not want to enter pre-sales. Because the markets are already in decline and they know that there will be difficulties in attracting investors. Still, in this process, it seems like an impossible thing. The concept called ICO was something that emerged in 2017 and was replaced by IDO. Now we will see together what will happen in the coming periods.

Do you think that launchpad platforms and projects will return soon? We are already in a bear market and very soon new projects will start using launchpads again, I am looking into seedify at the moment but I want to ask the audience, do you think this is a good idea or it's over for IDO, IGO and other?

Not worth it even if they come back again. I am already seeing that there are zero to no interest among the community to invest into the projects in their initial investment strategies. Those were literally the old golden days when you used to put some money into the project by looking at their roadmaps and believing that they will run and return on investment. The problem is, they started scamming trend soon after they realize they can make handsome amount of money right after they launch. Plus they got the security of anonymous blockchain layer and thus nobody ever knew to whom we are sending the money what coins exactly we are getting back. This is definitely worst way to go with it now and it's better to keep calm and invest into projects which have had hard time in their start ups but now growing with realistic approach.

I have experienced investing on Creo Engine seed round. The only thing that I am disappointed so far is that it’s been vested and having months of cliff before settling off with the monthly unlock. If it has been mostly unlocked back then, I could have made my money back at least.

Because of the bear market right now that started off with the LUNA and Terra USD crash, the price of CREO in CoinMarketCap is way below the seed price. For me even if it’s pre-seed, there are no guarantees or promises that you would get back your money at least or even profits.

This kind of system should be avoided when investing in a project.  Locking the token when they have our funds is unjust in my opinion.  While the developer has all the means to move their token, they keep the investors token locked so that they can reap the early hype of the token.  Besides, project that does that has no confidence in their marketing dept.  So they do everything to delay the distribution of the token until they have already dump their token in the market.

I think it still depends on the project that will used their platform or use their kind of crowdfunding.  If the project that will do the IDO or IGO is shitty then it really does not worth it but if the project is legit and very promising then it is worth it.

I don't think it's over yet, IEO, IDO and IGO or other types will still be there. Because the crypto world is evolving to seek perfection and will continue to develop and renew itself. So it remains for us as investors to be wise in choosing and investing #DYOR

What I know is that IEO and IDO are still here with us and being used most of the time but I don't know about IGO, it's only my first time hearing such term but this must be new and the use of it will emerge later on. Only the ICO are the ones who are rare right now, I think that is because they are the most riskiest way to invest and many people have lost a lot of money on them way back 2017-2018.

To have a perfect system with no issues or anything seems good to be true and I don't think it was possible but it is always possible to improve and become better. As for the investors, we should always do our own research no matter how confident we are and always stay vigilant for the assets that we owned.

Do you seriously consider in investing gambling with another worthless token, after all those things that have happened? Damn, some people never learn. While already highlighted, I'm going to ask you if you've read the news lately? News, such as this one?

Here's a life cheat: open up a DEX, buy bitcoin, do self-custody. Done. You might get some significant appreciation in the long term, but don't take it for granted. It might not make you rich, but it most likely not make you poor, in comparison with shitcoins.

The main reason on why they do really touch up these things that they are really in a hurry on making themselves rich which is a primary factor which does really affect someones mind which would really be ending up for you on getting too desperate and this is why you do consider on making yourself entering on these launchpads or shall we say ICO or something in related because you do get the earliest time as possible or cheapest
price as you could which it could really give out that kind of chance on making yourself rich but well we do know on whats the risk lies ahead with these kind of options.
With soo much having lots of coins or projects in the market then it is really safe to presume that it is really indeed not easy on choosing on which one.

I think we will consider projects that use ICOs and Launchpads for funding and community building, at least for the next few years. For example, if you're raising money for a game, people will want to play that game before investing in it. And if they can't play the game, they'll think twice before buying tokens.

Seedify is a blockchain gaming incubator and launchpad that lets you present ideas and start selling tokens right away, without having to worry about setting up a crowdfunding campaign first.

So, it's a way to sell tokens directly while also getting feedback from players to help make the game more popular. The gaming sector in particular has always been of interest to PC-focused blockchains like Ethereum. The Decentraland project has traction, but I think we'll see more successful games coming from other platforms, including Seedify.

I mean these names have only confused the gullible to give their money to the scammers. Every few months a new name comes in to replace the old one but it is the same old story. I can attest to this because I have been watching this market for the last 6+ years now.

It started with ICO>ITO>STO>IDO>IEO>DeFi>NFT and now we have IGO. Pretty cool way to switch the names so people keep branding the old ones as the scams while the new ones are like little innocent babies.

You are fully welcome to participate in seed or plant or tree or whatever phase you want to, but the end result will be same. 99% of the projects here end up being abandoned or pumped and dumped and then are never heard of again. Just read the ICO bubble and you will learn a lot about them.

True, but in order for someone to be willing to do this they need enough self-awareness to understand they do not know everything and that maybe it is a good idea to study how this market has evolved over the years, but for what I can read in the comments of those who join the market they are not interested in this, they somehow know more about the market than us and our advice is not needed, since they are convinced they can obtain massive profits by investing in altcoins, even if the probabilities say the opposite.

My guess is that a new trend will emerge, we know that in the world of cryptocurrencies it is always filled with new things, one is replaced by another, but we don't know for sure what it is because there has to be a first and only then will we be able to find out what a new trend will be in the future.

You have to continue to pay attention to existing developments so you don't get left behind and can get a profit, because those who enter first will have the opportunity to get a bigger profit, but of all the trends that have appeared, only the ICO which I was really interested in following but stopped after being filled with projects that are only made to cheat and it is difficult to tell the difference, so often the wrong project is chosen instead of hoping for a profit, it turns out to be a big loss.

The current market situation is not conducive for return of IDO, or IGO in the near future but it may return once confidence of market participants is restored & market starts recovering. If you are maintaining account in Binance exchange, then you can participate in new projects by staking BNB coins and in return you get newly listed coins. Recently I had participated in HFT project by staking my BNB coins and I daily get reward of HFT token.

it's true that investing in the early rounds on launchpad is very profitable, but I think while the bearish season is still going on it's likely that new projects are very difficult to succeed.
We can see that the market has crashed a number of times since that incident which has occurred in several issues and it is very difficult for new projects to break through there.
and just a few suggestions, it would be better to be more careful when you want to invest in a new project when a bad situation is happening

In times like these, it's hard to look and depend on these projects because they'll be defeated at all times by the bear market. If you're talking mostly about IDO, they're done IMO.

There's always a new phase in the market where crowdfunding will have another term or style but if it's with IDOs, I don't think that they'll continue to thrive just as the ICO.

There will be time that each of them will end with their prime and we have to wait for the next trend to come up.

Most of the offerings on new project doesn't go really well at all. Some of them going through and survived but majority of them are just a scam eating those innocent investors. It doesn't matter if we are in bull or bear market, the scammers are still greedy with our money and offering us with the "recycle" ideas over and over again.

It's really hard to find new projects worth to invest on compared to what we had in 2016-2017 ICO era.

[vanesha]

Some Incubator or Lauchpad platforms on the exchange are the best way to make public sales. but I am a little hesitant now, how long ago we had waited even 3 years for ido in the big market , it turned out that they only put it below the IEO price after those 3 years. I hope that doesn't happen again.

[asyakashi]

everything is still good if the project is indeed potential. I think it's not about how they decide where they do public sales but how they run their projects so that a lot of investors come in for the long term. It is more worth investing in.

Most project has a potential until they release the project and developments happen. There are a lot of seed sales and early investors that have lost money because of projects that fail on long term. Even big financial institutions who are purchasing on seed sales experienced some loses because the project had failed. There are some project who succeeded but it is handful and most of it is on long term. Lucky for you if you landed on a jackpot and picked a good project. There are many trends on how projects can accumulate their funds on starting a project and some fake projects are just taking advantage of it. Just be careful on choosing and investing. I will personally choose a project that is currently running and developing than choosing a project on a seed sale. The risk is just too high.

Off course they will return,but not in such a massive manifestation as we are used to.Investors now do not want to lose money on various dubious projects, as the general situation on the market dictates new rules.The next few months are definitely not worth waiting for any high-profile projects, now most people are thinking only about how to save their portfolio.

Cryptocurrency investment is something of profits after a long term holding, and what it really required is a personal research, which determine the profits is the entry point of the coin price, while waiting for next bull run.

[super bako]

trying to find a coin/project with long-term high potential for the future with a 50x increase. there must be such a significant increase in luna, solana only with 1 more year of extraordinary increase reaching above 50x from the base price of 1$ down to 100$. before the bulls come back

Putting your money into these project startups us a dumb move financially.  Yeah can one hit big sure.  But likely chances are these are just a bunch of money grab scams that you are handing your money over to.  Wait until the dust settles then buy into something that has proven itself.  Still plenty of money to be made on those projects and much more safe.
