Topic: 80% of ICOs are Scams - page 71. (Read 12240 times)
These are your own views which we can't deny.... but these views reflect that may be you have invested in 2 or more ICO's and you got cheated by them so that's why you are feeling that 80% of those are scams... though its correct that most of them are scams but its definitely not 80% of those....
I just want to say, that not only 80% ICO is Scams but probably 98% ). Many scammers admins which came from hyip industry just make fake teams with fake sites and collect your money.
I have so reservations about throwing the word scam around. But I must agree with you that a lot of these ICOs never implemented their roadmap. They just abandoned the project, and nothing is heard about it again.
I am in project Sharpay.io and I monitor their news, they closely interact with the community, post many news and do roadshow - I’ve even met the team on the event, they don’t have any of scam attributes

I've seen a lot of people asking about how many legit ICOs there are, so I thought I'd share
Quote from the article: "The study begins by breaking down ICOs into 6 groups: Scam, Failed, Gone Dead, Dwindling, Promising, Successful. “On the basis of the above classification,” they wrote, “we found that approximately 81% of ICO’s were Scams, ~6% Failed, ~5% had Gone Dead, and ~8% went on to trade on a exchange.”
"Scams were defined by researchers as “Any project that expressed availability of [an] ICO investment (through a website publishing, ANN thread, or social media posting with a contribution address), did not have/had no intention of fulfilling project development duties with the funds, and/or was deemed by the community (message boards, website or other online information) to be a scam.”

I do not think that there are 80% of the icos that is scam because some of them might failed their project because they did not have the good marketing skills but still most of them are distributing the reward after the ico is successful.
Yes, not 80% its 90% all ICO's are scam, This is said on Blockchain Conference in Manila. So be careful on what you joining on ICO. Be think.
How regrettable it is, but you are right, almost 95% of the ICO are scams that is why we need to do a lot o research before getting involved with these ICO projects because most of these projects are just created raise funds from the investors and going to runaway after getting millions of dollars from the people.But researching wont save us from these scams,because it will only lessen the risk of choosing scam ICOs,even those legit looking ICOs are turning into scam gradually. We need to do our due diligence
I think you're a little over the edge, the percentage of the bench in the ICO does not exceed 50% , but the airdrops are basically almost all the Scam.

which you say is true, there are a lot of ico scam now, so be careful in buying ico, but not all ico scam, there is also a good ico, like ftec and other it, the most important thing is we have to keep alert
I agree and I think not 80%, 90-95 % of icos are scam, they are just collecting money and doing nothing, months are passing and they are not giving anything and then closing the company.
In my opinion, 95% of ico is fraudulent, and the market has reached tens of billions of dollars since 2017. The market has been badly affected.
I agree, because the ICO now are different from ICO at past time. Now they're 80% potentially scam, so don't try to invest your money easily in ICO if you won't loss your money. I believe on ICO rarely because there no reason to believe uncertainty investment. Think before invest and if you must invest, you must have some try and make good research before investing into it
Perhaps you are right, I have no evidence that this may be so, but the fact that most projects are unreliable - I do not doubt it. Maybe not 80 percent but about this.

I have come to the realization that not all ICOs are scam. You just have trouble in finding the right ones. Let me help you. Buy Spotcoin ICO today. I can guarantee you it is not a scam. Presale sold out before time and ICO date about to be announced. Don't miss out on it. Check http://spotcoin.com for details
It can be concluded that based on these data for a beginner - to invest in ICO - this is almost always - will lead to the loss of his money and time. Investing at the moment is very dangerous.
I totally agree. There's a lot of scams or scammer in our market. Specially in crypto world mostly we are anonymous. That's why you should not build your trust right away.Make sure that the project is legit, ask question or make a research with an unbiased source.

I think 80% is very much, in reality about 30%, but even this figure is quite large. It is necessary to study the project very well before joining it, so it is also good to follow the progress of the ico, so that in case of poor pre-sale fees, do not waste your time on this project.
I agree with this assessment, a lot of ICOs are outrightly scams while some only create a project that is overly ambitious and with no realistic way of meeting the targets.
The main way ICOs lure in unsuspecting investora is by chilling and offering too much bonuses so you have to beware.
