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

What information is available about the remaining 44% of ICO?

it's not nice, but now all the coins have fallen in price. because of the bear market.
and most likely cheaply sell only bounty hunters

If you are an experienced person, please give us more detailed instructions. How do we choose a good ICO project, which will help people have a better overview and experience to choose a good ICO project for themselves. Portfolio diversification helps us minimize risk, do not put eggs in the same basket. Your comments are great.

Invest in ICO is just like invest in a company. Its about long term not short term. But unfortunately most of people always ask about when moon, when lambo or anything else that express the desire to get quick profit. I want to add one more thing, the number 4 is look at the team members, you cannot thrust the linkedin or Facebook or Twitter account, I join bounty campaign which the dev provide his linkedin but it useless, the project is scam.

It's even good that 56% fails and it won't be good if almost all of them succeed.
By the way your advices are good, especially last one: Ignore news ans HODL. Panic and emotion is what can even kill project if it's good and only once failed in one step.
People usually don't do research too, they just read promises and invest blindly, that's sad fact.

Hey. Of course it's the way you say it. all my life startups were lotteries, if their creators really do not know what they create. therefore, the analysis of the project will help the investor.

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.

What if you invest in 7-9 wrong ico's? You will lose money for sure.
If you want to invest in project during ICO you have to sit down for day or two and do very deep research about everything, including team member pictures and try to find information about them.
Also, if you see john mcafee promoting ICO stay away from it, that guy likes to gamble and he is looking for 400X ICO's. It doesn't mean he will find them.

Disagree, I did something like that and now I just have a bunch of crappy bags lol. Wish I had taken the advice of no ICO from the start but nobody told me how to avoid them Cry

I think you're just out of luck. According to statistics, 4 out of 10 tokens after ico make X3 or more. Just bad luck.

i think this percentage is normal because it is business and some times business may go down but that depend on the dev team to make up a strategy to go over any problem facing their project.

76% of ICO, completed in 2018, are unprofitable! After listing the exchange, there is a short-term increase in the price of ICO tokens, and then the cost of most of them falls below the level of initial sale. Fast profit is received only by investors at the stage of pre-sale, who bought tokens at a special discount. Tokens of promising projects can be bought long-term after completion of the sale and list to the exchanges cheaper than during the main round of ICO.

With the first two points I agree, but with the third one is not at all, how do I ignore the news ?? If the team has fled, and there were news. What to ignore them?. This point is wrong, you should always pay attention to the news

That's true and it might be higher this year, but as financially most projects are very good they can stay in the market and try not to fail for a long time compared to other companies.

Not really applicable,not every successful ICOs are doing their job some of these successful ICOs are turning into scam that is why theres assurance with these projects,the best thing to do is to stick with the solid projects which has good developers this is the main reason why i am not investing with ICOs because it has more risk than trading.
