ICOs are not dying but investors are more cautious and the willingness  in investing has dropped due to the market situation and scam ICOs. In majority of the projects the price drop after they are listed on exchanges and ICOs are not profitable as they were last year.

In the form that it is now, ICO will become extinct more than likely. But it seems that the developers of the Ethereum have found a way out. This is a reversible ICO. The main idea of RICO is that investors have an opportunity to recover invested assets at any stage of the project development. For the implementation of this, it is necessary to create a special smart contract that gives a "reverse to investment commitments". Maybe RICO will do fraud unlikely, and teams of ICO projects will be more interested in keeping their promises.

There are so many ICO projects nowadays are mostly scams so thats why you said that its dying off. People are getting tired to invest now due to losses and hoping that they can earn profits but its the opposite. I hope people will learn to research first before investing.

Crypto funding is not going to die but public sells are gonna die for sure.
Crowdsale investors afraid to jump back in. The community lost too much money.

ICO are not dying, people are just weary of ICO that can not or better still yet to deliver on their ideas and roadmap. Another reason for slow down in funds into ICO is the bearish cryptocurrency market that have lasted for several months now!

ICO do not die ,but simply move to a different status and there is a quality filtration that will certainly contribute to the growth of ICO in the future when the market recovers on a better basis.

Well, I don't think so. If ICOs dying off, then crypto expansion will be limited and no growth to come.. In fact, many ICOs are just a scam! But there are many decent and strong projects out there. So these latter porjects will succeed in the long run. ARROUND ico project, for a sample, is a good one and has great potential to succeed, but we have to see the team deliver on the long run too! https://arround.io

Unfortunately, I no longer have any hope for the ICO market, because the failure rate of the ICO project is now beyond my imagination, 90% of the projects may disappear, which is very bad!

"September has seen the least amount of funds raised by #ICOs in more than a year. Are ICOs dying off?"

Chart here: https://twitter.com/Bancor/status/1049690978213404673

Of course not. It seems to me that ICO has much more prospects than any other part of the entire crypto-currency world. We just have to learn to deal with the scams and ignore them and then everything will be fine

Hi. I think that ICO is still promising and needs to be invested. Now the bear market and when the market will be bull again, everyone will invest more.

Certainly they are dying, and it is not a bad thing, always when something explodes everyone wants a piece of the cake, but now that the market is normalizing, also the number of projects that are coming out, because there is simply no money for everyone, so it is a good thing to decrease the quantity but also increase the quality.

I think that ICO does not die, it's just the consequences of the market drawdown that lasts for almost a year. Investors become smaller of course because of the fact that a very high percentage of ICO is a fraud.

Then this is not just the consequence of the market, even if the market was doing very well I'm sure the market of icos will have problems getting enough funding, people are realizing that most of those projects paint a very nice picture about what they want to achieve but they know they are lying, they're never going to create anything close to what they're proposing in their white paper.

I believe that ico does not die, because crowdfunding or fundraising for startups has always been and will be

Among this direction, the total volume of investments decreases, but this is due solely to the fall in the price of cryptocurrencies and the fear of investors.

It seems that ICO created a new low in September this year. In my opinion, in fact, since February of this year, the ICO's amount of fund has been continuously declining along with the intensification of the bear market. If this trend continues, then it is very likely that the ico's amount of fund will not even more than $100M this month.

The simple fact is that it's harder to raise funds through ICOs with poor sentiment, as we have currently in general.  The same is true for the stock market, and IPOs.  During the high-flying times, more IPOs are issued.  During the midst and lows of bear markets, IPOs occur less frequently and at lower valuations.  The situation is the same for the crypto scene, though the landscape is different in terms of regulation and perhaps the ratios of institutional and retail involvement.

i think it wil be dying off soon. so many investors worried to invest their money in ICO now. it has a higher risk than trading some altcoins or bitcoin.
there are so many ICOs this year. Most ICOs are scam, the team were gone after collecting funds from investors and abandoned their project.

thank you for providing this data which makes me understand why some ico have not been said to be successful lately and many have not withdrawn their tokens. the chart shows a very drastic decline from February to November this year. It is fitting that in February many ico were a big success but it is inversely proportional to the present. I hope this situation will improve quickly.

Ofcourse it was big sucess at the end of 2017 when there was alot of money flowing in . Almost Every ICO did so good that people was Investing even without Investigating the project lol . And look where are the projects now the ones that reached hardcaps and so on . And there was SEC regulations aswell , now i see most of the ICO's have KYC and some other rules to participate in it Smiley

it has to the point that ICOs are not really that much of a big deal. One factor is, most of the ICOs are not legit. Of course, marketing of the projects will make promises and hypes for their clients, and delivering lesser what people would expect. Not all of them, but most of them are doing such things.
