Topic: ALL Initial Coin Offerings are Trash - page 2. (Read 22287 times)
This is a very strong allegation that I am almost tempted to disregard but when I consider how many ICOs that I can remember back in 2017, I discover that many of them are no longer in existence. They have been delisted from coinmarketcap. Their telegram groups have been abandoned and now taken over by spammers without mercy. Websites too are down. There is truth in it that most ICOs were actually scam
it is a fact that a lot of ICO's are scam or failed by other reason's last time but in the past there where absolute very good project's who still excist , think the gold period is gone , but if you search enough you will find that 1
The only reason why you think that all are scams is because you have never knew more than 10 project at any given time. And I bet that for you to even remember names of them, you have to go to cmc to see their names.
There were some solid projects that came through initial coin offerings, but that was long ago. ICOs have not only been seen as scam, but are outright shit coins that will not last long. Whether we like it or not, we might not see IcCO come back again and if anything of such should emerge, it will be a waste of time and resources on the part of the developers, because people will not accept it.
Very huge truth in this I must say, most of the projects nowadays are complete junks and redundant at best with over imaginable and unachievable whitepapers. These projects present the perfect whitepaper only to lure unsuspecting investors to their ICOs and end up feeding them garbage products at the end of the day with little or no substance. It's quite an unfortunate and sad situation.
You correctly say that the majority, since the creator writes that everything is rubbish, I do not agree with this at all, because if you take the choice seriously, you can find a worthy project that will show itself in the future. Simply, most projects are waiting for a good market to enter it.

Unfortunately, nowadays it seems right, because 90 percent of all ICOs that are live at the moment are ending scam or switching their fundraising method, because they are not able to collect funds. We need more projects that are already offering some working decentralised solutions.
I can't say otherwise,in 2017 ICO is the best for all investors and it was a big part why we have more investors in crypto space but now every single one of these ICO projects are worthless,i really pitied those who invested alot on ICO projects,even this year i promoted an ICO project that looks and feel so real like its different but in the end its all trash,its time for ICO to be gone for good
But after all, most of the coins that are now in the top 10 conducted Initial Coin Offerings. Maybe not all of them are trash?
It is true that most initial coin offering can be seen as scam but I do not accept the saying that all ICO are scam, even though so many are struggling to survive, there are still some that scaled through and was a success.
as developer works on preparation to comes with use on possession to gives with reference of product and service with the deliverance on notables with the terms of initial offering, the details with the investors decision helps on extensive as use with supports on exchange to returns with chance on working on plan with the projects as use with drawing on movement of progress with the continuous development.
Sorry to say, Not all the ICO is a scam. In 2017, people call it a golden year for the ICO but if 80% of ICOs were a scam then this is really shocking news. I think at this moment Some ICOs are doing well, we need to support only those ICOs which has a real-life use or a product! At this moment, I like some ICO Projects like Livenpay, Windhash and of course Haratoken! They already have a real life using customers with active clients. I know the most of the ICO has no value at all, but some are really doing well!
After the end of bull market way back to 2017, some things changed to worst. Decreased prices caused more pressure on the prices and this pressure made us nervous.
Agree, after market reach peak value, many people trying to scam people by creating their own ICOs and not legit project. They just want to steal peoples money and makes crypto images became negative. I dont think all ICOs are scam because many success in market after listing on exchanger

But that's not for some icos that were listed on the binance instantly. those icos can make a lot of money instantly and they can leave from the pressure that happened in the market. But the bearish trend was giving a lot of pressure for us especially ico.

It is not right to say that all ICOs are trash. These assumptions are not based on real statistics, they are just statements of those who were scammed or had bad investment experience.
I know that many ICOs struggling or scamming people , but not all.

Yeah I miss 2017, I guess bearish market are affect into ICO project, because the project receive contribute in Crypto such ETH, so maybe a lot of ICO in 2018 and 2019 has been loss, then they're decide to delay their roadmap or stop it although they were reached the Softcap. 
I made a lot of money off of ICOs in 2017.
A lot of my colleagues did too.
The thing is, we dealt with ICOs using a very specific trading strategy.
We were solely going for the quick flip and saw ICOs as a way to substantially increase our capital.
This meant that the bigger the bubble, the bigger the hype the better.
I looked for hype factor, token metrics, exchanges listing feasability and also how to get the maximum discount through presales or group purchases.
I did 11 ICOs in 2017 and each one I sold it off right away when I could.
On average I tripled my investments and in one case (appcoins) managed to get 6x profit.
The only ICO I got screwed over with was Titanium.
That was a greedy error on my part because I was fully ready to sell it off for double profit when it hit exchanges.
But I thought I'd wait until I could get 4 to 5x profit.
It ended up being shut down completely for being a scam lol.

All ICO are not trash. Some of the scammed projects are trash and some projects which didn't propagate are trash, but not all of them. Just read the white paper and project team and chances for trash ICO will be less.
