ICOs will bounce back (especially under the form of STO) but utility tokens are dead in my books.

ICO is not dead but the power is down now most ICO don't reach hardcap or many fail,That is because investors are tired of ICO masked fraud.but there are a number of successful ICO projects that can only be counted on the fingers,only quality projects and have strong supporters who will succeed
The ICO is dying, because there are some ICOs that have reached hardcaps, but it still does not guarantee that the ICO will succeed because at this time we really cannot expect the ICO.

but that does not mean that if the ICO is completely dead, only I will wait for improved market conditions and see how the ICO is developing.
if ICO also improves, I will reinvest in the ICO.

NOPE

I say - they are ALIVE!


I think they are not alive anymore because as IEO entered, these ICOs are being ignored and I am hoping that it still comes back even though only few people are still doing it.

Definitely not! ICO's not dead. That is why the reason why I am still here supporting the ICO's. Maybe there are times that the price is drop, but this is not the reason that you can conclude that it is dead. It is a part of industry or it has effect in the community because the prices goes up and down as well as the ICO's.

I think soon we will dream about the return of the ico in the same format because this model of collecting money from investors was the most fair.
This is nice to see you passionate about ICOs but majority of ICOs had been very big scammers. This hurt the spirits of crypto enthusiasts and due to the fake and dubious nature and projects, ICO lost its demand. People love IEOs now and this is why the demand for ICOs declined down to a great extent despite the fact that ICOs had previously been the fundraising boom mechanism.
ICO is no longer interested as much as 2017 and this indicates weakness in investor protection. I think maybe this year or next year, ICO will end and we should not invest ICO now because the risk is huge. If you want to invest, you should only invest in IEO projects because it will be much better and can avoid scam ICO projects. Now is not the time for venture capital because the market is in a risky period and your investment may be meaningless without the right choice.

And what are your guys thoughts on IEO industry? A bit modified and a bit more attractive in today's market conditions. What I personally like is that projects are also verified by the exchanges they conduct rounds on. And has anyone heard of Bitstars IEO, they are having it tomorrow? Because the project is pretty widely discussed these days, so curious to know your opinion Wink

ICO is not dead exactly, but people and investments there have also decreased, in the future it is possible as a complete revival of the ICO sphere, as well as the disappearance of the ICO sphere

NOPE

I say - they are ALIVE!

Yeah you hear me right!

They are ALIVE because they can no longer sleep on one ear knowing funds will come in regardless

They are ALIVE because they focus on building the technology

They are ALIVE because the market requires this

We are going through a maturing phase - the strong will survive and they will deliver.

No one will remember the ones who quit - no matter how strong they presented themselves to be

People will remember the ones who stayed and delivered.

I believe everything will be replaced by time. now there are many ico that really fail in terms of price after entering the exchange, scam and ico that really do not run like the white paper they pour.
I'm not pessimistic but this is a fact.
I think the market will recover but not with ico, it is likely that ico will be replaced and currently there is something better than ico, EIO

ICOs are not really dead but it is going through evolution to IEO which makes it to be more better than ICO. Though some projects are still conducting ICO and I participated in one of them that did well at their initial listing but I don't think this will continue for long.

if you make a cut by the number of ICO and IEO projects created and successfully completed before softcap - the answer will be obvious that ICO has really died.
Until they begin regulated at the state level with imprisoning fraudsters, nothing will change

ICO is indeed one of the things that can give you big profits. But the ICO that can provide a big advantage is before 2018. And throughout 2018 many ICOs experienced a lot of problems and lots of useless coins. But now seeing the market seems to be recovering. And I'm sure if this year the market will recover and more ICO projects will succeed.

To many ICO is dead and gone but things can still change with ICO if the market get stable and we have some genuine project instead of scam project.

It's not complement for me, because now it's more difficult for me to find a better project. The scam project has increased significantly now. That's true for me now I have avoided Ico investment.

ICO projects are not yet dead, but they are experiencing a very difficult time, which is associated with a falling market and a high level of fraud among such projects. We see that even today some ICO projects are successfully working and are raising the necessary funds to develop their ideas. Of course, without addressing the issue of eliminating fraud, the activities of ICO will not regain its former popularity. It seems that for this they need government regulation, which would be to check the ICO team and create such conditions for them to exclude the possibility of fraud, as well as to establish clear rights and obligations of participants in this type of activity.

Investors don't trust ICOs no more, a lot of them had no working product, ran-away with the money the investors have entrusted with them, and scam. ICO had a bad reputation that most investors avoid investing on them which lead to massive ICO failure.

That's true. Even promising projects were getting listed at heavy discounts, causing massive losses for the investors. That's on top of the 90% of the ICOs, which turned out to be scams. Once the reputation is lost, then the recovery is very difficult. Many of the countries (such as China and South Korea) did the right thing by banning the ICOs altogether. But the scammers just moved to other jurisdictions, such as the Caribbean islands. And the crypto community was also not very proactive in preventing these scams.

ICO's were not dead, with the existence of new platform for the launch of new projects the importance of ICO's have been decreased a little. This doesn't mean that the ico's were dead. Whenever something advanced gets into the market for some time period there will be some lacking in the usage of the one that was much used in the past. This is what happened with ICOs

Some time I can say ICO is dead because many time of ICO have listed on exchange market always lower price, but some time I get many ICO have higher price after listing on exchange market and keep it for long time.

The decline in quality and also competition with the existence of the IEO has made ICO indeed currently not much of a priority for investment in investors. most of them prefer to invest in the IEO rather than the ICO And this is the reality that exists today. to be said dead I don't think this is because until now the model of ico is still there every day struggling to build trust again.
