Topic: 80% of ICOs are Scams - page 52. (Read 12240 times)
Everyone wants easy money but in fact there are decent projects and just need to study everything well and weigh before entering the ICO market !
I think its not 80% there are legit ICO's that dont end that well because of lack of lack of investor's if ICO dont reach their target they ended losing their capitals and some of them didnt return the investors money because they are not motivated to do a thing anymore in that case we cant consider it as a scam.
Yeah I guess this is the time where ICO projects are not yet registered on a country where it was based. But now seeing how the government regulated cryptocurrency and that includes registering the ICO project in that certain country so that they could not run away from the investors. This is the new trend now on ICO project investment however we must be careful also that there are still countries who are not regulating the use of cryptocurrency.
Its unfortunate but its quite true most ICOs are scams or dont give as much as thy have promised which has led to discouraging outcomes in the recent pat, thats why ico investment is considered one of the riskiest ventures there is
I don't think they are scams. I think most of them are worthless. Most icos let you know about it through hype and then trick you into investing in it. I think what you need to do is how to distinguish its value. In my opinion, there are still many good ico projects worth investing.
Yes im stongly agree that 80% of ICOs are Scams because I experiences that I'm I newly about this kind of business.But I'm not stop o join because I'm still hoping that time will come to be a lucky in this kind of business. In addition not all so we have 20% of change of lucky to ICOs. Who knows it will decrease soon and I'm hoping.
Yes and I have gone through this phase too but experience teaches you the signs to identify the scam ICOs which are they will ask for an unrealistic soft-capital for the ICO to be successful and then give a high fraction of the ICO investment to advisors and management of the company
Its is very true that most ICOs are scam and so many persons have fallen prey to it but to ensure thats why its advisable to do a thorough research before getting involved in any ICO.We are talking about money here
To be sincere, a good number of ICOs are scam, too much distrust in the air, many people have fallen victims of those scam...all the same ot is not all if them that happens to be scam... That is where work needs to be done to make proper research to know which is which...... Best wishes guys
"Promising" and "Successful" don't seem like they could be measured objectively. These numbers also seem incorrect, especially only 8% of ico's making it to an exchange. This ICO advisory group obviously wants to make the case that they are needed in the space so keep their bias in mind. There are still ICO opportunities for unaccredited US investors under "Regulation CF" though it's significantly more complicated and expensive for the issuers/company.
I don't think anyone should find this too surprising. There are definitely good projects out there but they seem to be moving further and further away from the traditional ICO Crowdsale type of fundraising and more towards accredited investors and institutional money.
I think we wil continue to see a lot of scams and cash grabs due to people trying to make their fortune before this space becomes heavily regulated.
Investing in crypto is high risk and ICO's are the highest risk of all but getting into one of those 1.6% projects is the dream.

At this moment it's impossible to run an ICO. Every listing site, every podcast, every newssite and YouTubers all ask a lot of money just to list your ICO or to mention your ICO. That's just not the way we want to do it.
We've been working for 6 months to make a working new US based exchange with fiat in/out, dynamic pairing, all with an easy interface for everyone, but nobody wants to do an interview or even listen to us.
Only thing these influences want is money.. They don't give a peep what your project actually is.
We just want someone to write about us, pro and cons, just honest opinions about our project. Is that too much to ask?

Indeed the majority of the ICO scammers. This is happening in all new areas. You have to be very careful otherwise you risk losing your money.
I see that it is very difficult for Russian projects to raise funds. But I think that the situation in the future will change in a positive direction. I personally invested in 5 Russian projects!
Scam ICO is a big problem for investors. it is because of such projects that the ICO industry is going through hard times. To solve this problem, it is necessary to completely change the structure of the ICO.
If you called it 90% of ico are scam you are saying the truth, too much of them are actually spoiling the purpose the blockchain was created for, people dont trust crypto because of scam cases.
there are many ico scams right now and so are spreading so before you join the bounty make sure that you are legit as well as the double investors are careful of joining because the legit ico is now less and for you ma scam you can ask the best looking ico.
maybe because of poor market conditions, many ICOs fail because sales are not optimal because investors are more careful when investing.
ICO scam is much less than 80%, but you still have to be careful. It seems to me now better not to risk and buy coins on the market.
The scam ICOs are even growing in numbers compared to the past years. Conducting an ICO is easier than traditional crowdfunding that's why it is a target of many scammers. I hope this will be regulated accordingly.
I don't believe in that. The number of scam ICOs, and the ICOs in general that get the funding, is smaller and smaller because people that got burned in the past don't throw away their money anymore. That's why some of the good ones never get the chance to shine. But that's life, if something is good it'll eventually rise above the bad I guess.
