Topic: anyone else have ICO fatigue - page 2. (Read 767 times)
Just like in real life you have to look for the diamonds in the rough. 99% of ICO's are total rubbish and will never go anywhere but i still get excited when i see a great coin with fantastic future potential. It can be tiring scrolling through pages of fake airdrops and pump n dump ICO's but i still believe it is a fantastic way to find a truly valuable coin/token if you look hard enough. Don't lose hope guys the x100 is somewhere out there. Right now i'm looking into Jetcoin which has been around for a long time but is re-inventing itself with some new strategies/ideas.
I am beginning to lose interest too. No, it isn't that I think some the ICOs are scams but because it is very difficult getting the coins after one has made a transfer to the company's site. The btc is withheld for days unending.
Why would any sane devs stress would-be investors and have a timeframe when their allotted daily sales would be made and most times the coins are sold out within two minutes. Yes, just two mins and you begin to wonder who and who were able to buy in if not a prearranged schedule by the devs and their teams. This scenario is ongoing right now with hextracoin and glasscoin ICOs. I have been in hextracoin for more than 10 days now trying to get in. Very stressful!

It's kind of annoying as fuck too, but every now and then you get a spam comment about a stupid ICO no one has any interest in. Really makes you feel caring even less about ICOs. But yeah, after putting in a lot of money in ICOs already, I think I'm done. No more ICOs please, no more mass spam tokens please, no more mass shit please.

August and Sept indeed is a month of crazy ICO. I have done a lot of research on so many ICO and that took up like at least 1 hr per day. Looking at youtube video, going into their telegram and slack channel to get the latest update, allocating my eth etc. Putting in my calender when ico crowdsale date, when is next tier, when is token transferrable, when to register for whitelist.
i have a theory that all these erc20 based ICO's raise a bunch of ETH for the devs, who turn around and sell it. For this reason the market is flooded with an excess of ETH for sale, which is keeping the price down.
Hopefully as more people realize how important it is to be more selective with ICO's, the supply of ETH will dry up and therefore cause the price of ETH to rise.

@MinerLeague. I have the same sentiment. But I reckon it is because the market for ICO tokens is not booming. But if the bulls come back and bring us 10x returns again, the sentiment will change, not only for me but for eveyone including you.
yes, me too,
but, with so many ICO at this moment, this make cryptocurrency world become very popular and this is why the marketcap of cryptocurrency always increase ? and all crypto users will got the advantage of this

I've generally lost interest too.
Mainly because there are so many, and many of the new ICOs are really obscure and are pretty much 100% scams.
When ICOs first came out, that was really interesting, seeing new ideas flourish and new systems. There was a lot of innovation and potential. Some of the first ICOs today are doing pretty well and the developers are true to their word.
Now... It's like "Oh! Look at this ether based token that does absolutely nothing! Buy now for a 20% bonus!". After the ICO? The developers disappear. Magic.
