in my experience 70% is a good ICO and only 30% can be attributed to the scammers.

I don't know yet, as a new here. I am joining for 4 ICO in their media bounties ( facebook and twitter ). I didn't know if those 4 ICO was scam or legit. Still, the project ongoing. Maybe I will know it after the sales and the distribution will start.

I agree, there are a lot of scammers in the market now, but if you study the project in which you are going to participate in detail, you can make good money, I think that it is necessary to allocate a lot of time for the analysis of the project.

Interesting research and figures. I knew that many ICO projects were fraudulent, but I did not think that it was 81%. Of course there are good and promising projects, but We need to be more careful when choosing.

if in my opinion not also ICO until fraud, I think the average ICO may be a fraud from the stack division only. If it's not getting paid it's impossible. According to my find and I have ever felt such a thing.

indeed many scam ico that stole the investors money. but not all ico are scam.
if you manage to invest in a good ico, you will have great ROI later.
There are good, there are bad, and there are simply losers. The last two options are succeeding in the market. Therefore, everyone believes that the bench a lot, in fact, some projects practice instantaneous transfer of investment in the case and after the failure can not return anything.

This is a huge problem because it's hard to choose a real project. Even very promising can turn out to be a scam. Tami I've had lately. I received tokens but nothing worth it.

Sometimes I think that more than 80% ICO is a scam! It is awful and if it will be so in near future I don't know how will we make cryptocurrency more popular...

To my great regret, statistics are really very deplorable, I think that such a percentage is really real, because now it is more and more difficult to select projects, but we are going to a better world, so today the best option is integration of verification not by investors themselves, but by developers themselves.

unfortunately yes, because in this world there’s a lot of scammer that the only thing they want or called objective is to gain profits for their own goods even
if fooling others in terms of business is absolutely prohibited.

I think 95% of the ico is fraud, which is to defraud the investor's money, and then increase the encryption price, and investors buy more expensive encryption to lose money.

Scam? notes. serious ico will not do a scam. because they are already in preparation. different if ico is a ico that originated from a lending or an unnatural investment. no team appearance. this is obvious they want to commit fraud

I joined a lot of bounty campaigns since last year on 3rd quarter and until today but unfortunately half of them went suddenly gone, stopped or suspended and half of them are indeed paying but half of my altcoins in my wallet have still no value until today.
that's why we couldn't always rely on bounty campaigns and the reason why most of the bounty campaign participants are having multiple forum accounts in order to join as many bounty campaigns available.

There are already over 1,600 sighted ICOs this year since January and sad to say there are about or around 20% of them had passed and bumped into www.coinmarketcap.com list as newly listed altcoins to be legally traded in the crypto market so I think Yes, most of the ICOs running today cannot proceed to the finish line as some of them are scams, fraud and bogus ICOs that were trying to rob investors' money and crypto assets.

I read somewhere that even an even greater percentage of ISO is just scammers and I think that this is a true truth, because he himself was convinced of how many swindlers and how much money they had already stolen from investors

there are a lot of scams, that's true.
but 80% seems like a lot of overkill to me.
I think that there are especially many bad projects, badly prepared, and launched by incompetent teams.
that's why when you want to invest in a project, it's very important to be well informed and not just follow a buzz or a popular project.

And despite this horrifying statistics, many people are still happy to invest in ICOs. It seems to me that only lucky men win here and this group of people that are true professionals. Many investors lose.

It still all boils down to having due diligence in researching the ICOs you're interested in. That's pretty much enough 90% of the time.

I have no idea about the breakdown or the percentage of scammers in initial coin offering companies.
All I know there are some opportunist people that will used that chance to steal your money and they are the one who will benefit from that money.
