Launchpads are profitable in terms of investing.

[X-ray]

They are good because the project launched in it is already guaranteed to be in the market shortly but this is only applied to project in exchange launchpad. But they have too many rules like whitelist only for people who stake their token and then even limited by share, that is too cumbersome for me. Better to invest in regular launchpad or directly in the token website

For some investors, that is their definition of being good but IMO that's not enough. What if the project doesn't have a good use case or Fundamental? Many aren't still going to invest on it and its value are still going to be small, then later on it will still get de-listed. OP said investing in Launchpad is easy but I can believe you more when you say it isn't because this is also what I read before even if I'm not investing on it.

This is another reason on why it's not worth it for some projects that we mistakenly think its good. Buying on the website directly is I think also strict a little bit but someone can face all of these as long as they can buy early at a cheaper price.

lets be honest here most of people that trades don't really care about fundamental or whether it gonna have use case, there are plenty of layer 2 project already but people keep creating it because its the hype, can't really care about fundamental if the narrative just stuck and the money circulating is also stuck, I personally when it comes to following launchpad as long as its already being sponsored to be listed in big exchange I already consider such coin to be good enough for short term investment, if we are talking about long term and fundamental surely we gonna choose bitcoin and ethereum instead its more obvious with its future and certainty while most of these altcoin that are in launchpad are mostly just some test and experiment just to create something for the sake of creating something which usually doesn't have any innovation besides the gimmicky TPS improvement whatsoever or trying to make transaction cheaper through the use of their blockchain but usually thats just all.

despite of that, people are still staking money in these platforms by the millions because they know that due to current trending narrative that is being pushed by many institutional investors including VCs and all, we can't deny the fact that the money is circulating there and we just want that little share.
so yeah, use case and fundamental is irrelevant at this point its not even worth mentioning when we are talking about new project that potentially could give us money but having fundamental and use case definitely a plus point.

I have participated in multiple launchpad project in both Binance and Bitget but to be honest we need to have good investment amount in order to gain significantly else you will only get few tokens which wouldn't even worth $10 or $20. But, again these are like free money you get and moreover if we are hesitant to lock the CEC tokens then we have an option of USDT as well we can commit USDT. This will help us earn some money.

Launchpads? Well, you can invest while it’s still very early but I think that launchpads can be risky. I mean… investing in new altcoins is generally risky. So do not invest a lot because of the platform. Do your research, build your faith with the platform and then you can invest your money based on how much you’re moved to invest and how much you can lose. I’m saying cause I’ve lost money before.

More than a hundred thousand people joined. I think that is not even worth with our result. I have seen my friend who got a dollar. People must be thinking once again before participate in the launch. As long as you have big capital and you can get a lot of money
The small participants won't be profitable enough from participating in this kind of event. I have tried by myself. It's not all of launchpad is also guaranteeing its participants as well.

exactly. It is just not for the shrimp like me. With $100 now i will get nothing while in the og ICO i can get $100 worth of token. It is not about the profit of the token in launch but about how much you are allowed to buy that token

Anyways I'm not saying launchpads are safe, they do have risks. So I suggest you to do your own research and invest responsibly. But imo launchpads offer significant potential returns and I feel they're safer than presales.

What are your thoughts on launchpads?

Don't say the phrase "THEY DO HAVE RISKS" because everything in investing has risks.
Anyway, joining in launchpads have a risk because in this way, you're like storing your asset (which is BNB or BGB) in their exchange, and we know that storing huge amounts of money in an exchange is never safe, right?

That's the risk, but if you don't care about it and you trust the exchange more than you trust others then there's no problem. At the end of the day, launchpads are profitable - for whales. For average investors? Well, it's kind of like free money because you just staked your asset on their exchange and wait to earn some free tokens. If you're a holder of either BNB or BGB, this serves as a double-purpose as you are waiting for the token to appreciate and at the same time, you are earning free tokens through these launchpads.

Overall, whether you are a whale holding huge amounts of these exchange tokens, or just an average investor who is holding small amount, you will really make profits.

I do have to mention it, though, since I don't want to be responsible for someone's losses, lol. And I agree with you that everywhere we go has some sort of risk. It doesn't mean you are safe all the time, haha.

Anyway, back to the launchpad, I was just sharing my experiences with Bitget and Binance. It's not a launchpool, though, so you can't call it "staking," at least in my opinion. For example, the current launchpad will take your BGB and give you BWB instead at the rate they record after the investment period starts.

So, in this example, if you hold the asset you receive, you might see the price go up over time with the project's ecosystem improvements. And that's entirely up to you if you wanna hold or not.

It's free money, but it's normal that the higher your commitment the bigger the coin share you get.. talking of launchpads. I noticed bwb launchpad commitment periods starts in few mins. Considering that?

IEOs have eliminated many of the problems of ICOs. In the past, there were many scams through ICOs. IEOs created a safer opportunity for investors under the supervision of exchanges. Both Binance's launchpools and launcpads have been the most profitable organizations recently. However, I see it as a bit of a contradiction that new projects that come to the market with the aim of bringing the ideal of decentralization to a more important point are going public in centralized systems. We are all happy that we have the chance to make a lot of money in the short term, but we are in a contradiction...

Launchpool and launchpad has gradually gained popularity than ICOs due safety but I still feel the reward rate should be a bit increased. Something that should commensurate with assets commitment. No doubt Binance has been doing well but I still feel Bitget should be second on the chart cos their launchpool and launchpad have produced a decent ROI since inception.
