Sometimes it's very dangerous to ignore the news. I don't agree with this point but I agree with all the others. The percentage of successful ICO is very small, but we must understand that it's high-risk projects. I believe there will be more qualitative ICOs in the future.

I think that this is normal. Not all startups are successful and when investing you need to understand that there is a risk of losing everything.

56% of failure in ICOs is a very high percentage, I hope that there will soon be regulation in most countries also to protect investors. However, it is important to follow the rules you wrote at the beginning of the post and to invest only a small part of your capital in the ICOs

It is necessary to study the project well before taking part in its ICO. A lot depends on yourself and how much time we spend analyzing the object for investment. Therefore, in our failures, we need  blame only ourselves.

The results of this research do not surprise me. In recent months the number of ICOs has increased significantly and in 2018 the percentage of failure in ICOs could exceed even 56% of last year. The important and select in my opinion a few high quality projects and diversify

As I believe the number of ICO is not growing, but fading. Moreover the quality of ICOs is rising higher. But I feel the same - still most of ICo is a total scam.

Everybody seems to pull out numbers from their pocket. Is there any official statistics to back their claims. I would love to see.

According to recent recearch, 56% of 2017 ICOs fail. And you know what? That's OK. 90% of startups fail but the rest grow so high that they compensate venture investors 90% loss and provide very high profits.

So the basic rules with ICOs are very simple:
1. Do the research before you invest
2. Diversify, diversify, diversify
3. Ignore news and HODL
apart from last point i totally agree. you have to be well informed about the project. If you didnt see it coming, for sure you gonna lose alot. I hope this percentage improves in 2018 but still its amazing. Lets hope for the best

Tnhans for your dvice and I will do better than last year.

Investing always involves the risk that something may go wrong. That's why I think if about half of the projects succeed, this is not a bad result. Apart from typical scam, of course.

There are a lot of ICOs which turned out fail, because it can't reach the hardcap of the project, people (investors) don't want to invest in that ICO, maybe it's because the project itself doesn't look promising, as we can see from the idea of the project itself, the devs, and the whitepaper of the ICO

56% is a very good result. This number is subtracted from another 50% scam ICO. I will not ignore the news. Perhaps because of this, many will not be able to exchange their coins because blind faith in the project. It is not necessary to do so.

New investors will not understand this before investing in ICO. how many investors are even researching well before investing money in ICO?. I met an investor recently who lost 33 ETH of her retirement to Denaro ICO scam. one thing I discover about many of this project startup is that they lack idea to be successful after ICO. no idea is new but the method you intend to use to achieve your aim should differentiate all of them and finally, I find out that ICO with a working products are less risky than ICO with just graphic website and bulky whitepaper.

Most ICOS are scams as they have no working product

Totally agree, with crypto in its infancy, there are bound to be miss and hits in the ico realm, and though labeled scams, i am sure not all come under that purview, as some might be unable to sustain rising above the experimental stage.

Its a nice amount that they are success. Check the forex market 90% of people losing money on forex and this system continue to work.
We are doing great 56% is a nice ratio to keep up developing ICOs until 80% loss

The last time I read it was 47% so I guess the failure rate has increased. None the less with the amount of copycat ICOs being launched no shit that these projects are failing. Many ICOs launching currently are nothing but ponzi schemes. One needs to do a thorough research before investing his money in ICOs now a days.

Yeah, that's really true. I agree with you. I think it is best to invest in 7-9 ico, because thus risks become even less.

That is true for investing more and the risk will go down, but the important thing is that there should be more than 50% of the ico projects get successful, or if the percentage is less than 50%, the more you invest in, the more you loss your money, this is a simple math calculation.

Another reason to take into consideration is that a lot of ICOs are scams, and that's why they fail.

So, that's why the % shouldn't scare you.
