Topic: A bad timing to invest in an ICO? What are your insights? (Read 870 times)
It is a tough time for ICOs this year, as the market conditions are not favoring them. They lost much value from raised funds as
the majority of them collected their funds in ETH. The interest for investing in ICOs has fallen dramatically from September as the investors
are much more cautious . The ROI from investing in ICOs has declined as they are not profitable as they were earlier.

with the fall in the price of bitcoin, the market falls and the value of coins becomes lower, including ICO coins, it does look bad but if you are a visionary investor then you will consider this moment as your advantage because you can invest in many ICOs with smaller capital
November 2018, forecasts for price increases for this period did not come true. Moreover, the market showed such a fall in prices that many people in cryptocurrency, just started to panic. It seems that all the predictions are just words and believe in them at your own peril and risk. This cryptocurrency is interesting because it is unpredictable.
At the moment, it is not worth investing in ICO. First, good projects are waiting for the beginning of a growing market, and secondly, they want to earn their own money.
I think that depends on your views for the future...If you think that the market will rise again, then this is the time to invest your fiat money in crypto and then some promising ICOs. If you are hesitant, you can at least join their bounty and once you feel more certain then you can make your contribution.
Majority of the ICO is risky. We cannot really say whether the project will be successful or nah. Therefore it is not just enough to know what are the plans or framework or such but it is indeed important to monitor how the project is doing. But them we can start at knowing everything about the ICO and their projects.
It is because of the fact that coins often become cheaper after entering the stock exchange, I do not invest in ICOs now. I prefer to buy coins that are already traded on exchanges. I do not want to risk because of the market, which is constantly falling.
The timing can indeed be a problem for people who really want some profit from ICOs. The general downtrend we have right now around the crypto market just makes people unsure about their ICO tokens /coins they have got/bought. And 'cause of that they often times sell them when the coins hit exchanges causing sell-offs and massive price drops with it.
Now most of the projects are very much reduced in price after the end of ICO. Why invest and take risks during ICO, if you can then buy these tokens much cheaper.
I noticed that most of the coins/tokens that was launch now are almost behind their ICO value by almost 25-50%, Basically if you purchased in the ICO someone could even double their holdings with the same amount that you used during your ICO purchased. So for me it will be wise to purchase in the exchanger but the risk is few of them wants to delayed their market launch due to market situation.
I also noticed that if the bounties are released in the same date with the investors the possible scenario is the coin/token will going to dump once it hits the exchanger, so better sell and rebuy once it dips because no matter what they say the bounties are free money and someone which is not a hodler will going to sell her/his holding once the coin/token hits the market ( always check the realease date of the bounties). I'm not an expert but tried to share my insights according to my experience, I'm an small ICO investors and the same time bounty hunter. Thanks and Godbless!!!

You are right the ICO value dips upto 50 to 60% when they pitch into exchanges now. The reason again would be the current market situation. But i suggest you to go for long term investment and that's how I planned to do with this red market. Instead of blaming a successful ICO with best project, lets just change the plan to go for a long term investment. Obviously the best projects are going to yield a huge turn over if you hold the tokens for minimum 6 months to 2 years and this is how investors with large capital do so. when you go for cheapest tokens or coins, plan for a long term investment on it and this will return you a decent profit.

Actually if you are ready with anything or the ICO is good or not, why not? Indeed, many ICOs are only concerned with their own team, therefore you have to choose what really makes you have profitable in future that ICO.

At the moment it is very difficult to define a successful ico. Now there are a lot of fraudulent projects , so you need to very carefully choose the ico to invest . The second problem is a bear market , which does not allow coins to rise in price . I believe that now is not the right time to invest in the ico and have to wait for the bull market.
When investing in ICO we are planning long term. When the coin enter the exchanges it can happen that some hunters dump their tokens, but who cares if we are planning long term. The dump can have only short term effect as the bounty allocations are minor.
Investors can buy more, even cheaper and the price should increase if there is demand for the project and it`s tokens.

It is actually a bad investment buying through ICO these days because by the time your token will be sent to you already you will be 30% down because the bounty hunters had already killed off the market by dumping their token. I think the bounty rewards should be paid with Ether or BTC to protect the token sold through ICO. If this trend continue it will be so difficult for ICO to be patronized by investors. If they will pay with Ether the ICO investment will be saved.
You are right in your observation, this is the reason that ICO developers locked their rewards for a month or even more for bounty hunters so they will not dump their coin and bring down it's value and there are so many times that ICO price is much lower when it hit the market, but ICO cannot get into the exchange if they cannot reach their capitalization.

Yes most of the users as well as investors expect a good amount of profit if they invest in the ico but the problem is the market situation and bounty hunters and airdrop users dumping the tokens once it hit the market.
You wrote the author correctly and thanks for the advice. Now it’s really not the best time for investments from start-ups, but it seems to me that everything will change in a short time and it will again be possible to earn very well on this

Unfortunately, the period we are in is not a logical period for ICO investment. As the market situation gets worse day by day and many investors are withdrawn from this market, ICO investments do not provide as much profit as it used to, and also cause investors to suffer. It is an inevitable fact that projects that have organized a bounty campaign will seriously lose value. I would like to reiterate that it is not reasonable to invest in these projects during this period because investments are kept for a long time and these investments usually end with a negative return. For that reason, it is not a gimmick to join ICO projects first, but when the transactions begin, it is only possible to buy at a low price.
It really depends on your risk appetite but with what is happening to the market I think it is better to buy ICOs after it was listed on the exchange but we definitely dont know when will the market be up. But as for my experience in ICO investing starting last feb most of the ICOs that I bought are listed lower than their ICO price.
