It us every surprising to me also that with the negative talks that has been around on ICO and developers, there are still lots of projects that are being released on daily basis. I just read a post from another op not quite long where he made claim that most ICO don’t even generate more than $100 again and I wonder if he really knows what is going on.
Projects here are still generating lots of money, and especially most of the ones that runs through the IEO platform, even the shitty projects when they are established still raise close to $500k, so the ICO market is still booming, although many of them don't really meet up again, but I know that before it gets to the level predicted that ICO market will die, we would have had lots of regulation that will get some of the bad projects that are spoiling the ICO off the market.

Many in the ultas explained that ico can only waste a long time in a project, even ico has a lot of dead this year, in crypto now it only accepts pure ico. replace with a new trend that is ieo which can shorten the time and definite clarity in a project that is good for the future of crypto itself

In my opinion, it is too early to conclude that ICO projects are dead. First we need to wait for the recovery and a good rise in the altcoin market. ICO and IEO are used together by many teams, first an ICO is carried out, which then develops into IEO. If not this year, then the next in the period of altcoins growth along with the increasing regulation of this type of activity should increase the popularity of ICO and IEO projects. A significant part of new projects will not be able to use the services of exchanges to organize fundraising in IEO format, but for now, ICO is the main way for new tokens to appear. Therefore, there is no alternative to the development of cryptocurrency yet.

ICOs are no longer profitable because they aren't legit anymore, scammers have take over ICO fund raising since 2018 and many people lose tons of money to them, if ICO become extinct today its for the better because people are tired of all these scam artists and be want solution badly
Icos has always been riddled with scammers way before that 2018. Just because people made money in 2017 from icos doesn't mean that lot's of them weren't scams. Because lots of them were just raisin because people fomoed in. Before the bearmarket they often even had anonymous devs that just left the project. 2018 was just a bear market and they were not profitable. That doesn't mean that there hasn't been legit projects after 2017.

Investors now are more concerned about their investment by seeing the recent downfall of ICO. Projects are scamming people and the scams have increased a lot in past few years, so IEO is more reliable for people then ICO.

ICOs have really died in 2019. There are no good ICO projects, everything is just scam investors and traders
October 11, 2019, 04:03:28 AM
I don't remember the reliable projects during the third quarter of the current year, the dead token sales affect badly to the investors's confidence. It is better to be a participant as an investor in the IEOs on the good exchanges rather than spending time researching the reliable project on the ICO rating websites. The road to the success is cleaner than ever for the good proejcts, the competition has clear rules for the particular ideas.
There are no project thru ICO that make noise this year, I think even in IEO. The trends that is happening in projects launched thru ICO last year made a huge impact in its performance now. The fact that even registered companies having their own products failed due to many scam project that running the same time with them influences the investors to doubt in investing. It's sad that some projects unavailable to succeed even they derve though they might still have flows that's why it happened. Soon another way of fundsourcing might happen other that IEO it needs to be more appealing and secured so they can investors attention. October 11, 2019, 03:16:59 AM
It's dead now, ICO's popularity is already over as IEO has taken over the market now.
The amount raised combined have significantly dropped and this could also be cause by the bear market, no interest investing in major coins will likely result to no money coming into ICO as well, and of course we cannot forget that majority of the ICO are scams.
Ico is dead because no investors are willing to invest anymore, they tend to choose other types of investment that will benefit them than investing in most of ico which is actually a scam.

IEO is somehow doing good but might end up the same situation as ICO now, due to the current situation of the IEO these days, its no wonder that it will shut down too.

ICO simply died out and I don’t think that ICO will ever be able to show the results that were 2 years ago, because now almost all cryptocurrency companies are scam or simply can not even collect softcap and investors are afraid to invest in ICOs, because almost every project that conducts an ICO turns out to be a scam, or simply does not collect a softcap.

The charts don't lie, ICO market is dead. For those investors that still put hope with it, stop it.
Look for another investment vehicle that will be worth of your time.

Because many ICO were not successfully raising their funds, the number of ICO created is decreased very great.
It wasn't about the success but it's most of them that became scams.

Im not really sure about 'cleared a path for better projects', i see ICO is really dead nowadays, but not all ICO.
Most of the project will running IEO on exchanges, so they can get the investors attention.

According to figures from cryptocurrency analytics firm LongHash and published on October 1,
ICOs are no longer profitable. They may even disappear completely in 2020, said researchers.

But here on BitcoinTalk we see new [ANN] threads and [BOUNTIES]
Is this just smoke and mirrors or does this forum know something researchers do not?

I don't think that your argument stands at all.
Looking around the forum, the vast majority of ICOs that are being advertised are completely nameless projects that have no new innovation with them, or downright garbage if you pardon my French. They are not the major ICOs that we saw in the bull run a few years back in Antshares, EOS, etc. that raised millions in funding.
I think the main thing is that the bear market brought a lot of sense back into ICO investors. There should be no reason why ICOs should be that popular, and the only reason why it was that good at raising funds is due to hype. The hype has died down, and people see that there is a lack of good projects in general, so they are refraining from investing.

ICOs aren't 100% dead yet, few projects still raises funds with ICO but investors have low interest in them now so that's why you will see few ICO projects still raising funds for months or even over a year, i don't know what the fate of ICO will be in the future but its not looking good

ICO is not visible now.
That does not mean that ICO is dead and abandoned, but most projects do not dare to do ICO. Not without reason, they have seen investors no longer interested in investing in ICO. Even though the project was good, ICO still doesn't have full trust right now.

ICO is going down my friend, trust me. I think according to my prediction 2020 is going to be the last year we are going to see ICO. No one wants them now, as the number of scams have increased so much, more than 99% of the new projects nowadays are scams. People are better with IEO.

the reality is very true, that until now very few projects have run sales with ICO. however, I do not think that this will completely disappear. When the cryptocurrency price recovered, I thought the developers out there would re-develop new projects and make sales through ICO. although a little, I'm sure there will still be.ICOs are no longer profitable. They may even disappear completely in 2020, said researchers.

Besides that, although IEO also has advantages over ICO, it's just that, I feel that there will be developers who see how many investors are interested in their projects and do ICO in the future.

ICO's are not dead,there were some project that succeeded. Decreasing in their number and success is affected by collapse of crypto market and frequent cases of scams. Investors want to be more concerned about their investments, that is why appears IEO's, which is already a preferred method for the majority of investors. I hope it helps to eliminate scams and change current fundraising situation for better.
You are right that ICO has not died so far and in my opinion it will be difficult to die even though investor confidence in ICO is now reduced from before. the reason might have been you said before and currently IEO is more in demand by investors, hope many people of the system can improve the existing system before 
October 08, 2019, 08:17:53 AM
Before launching of IEO many ICO success with sold out and raised hard cap with few week, maybe just one week ICO selling raised hard cap and sold out but today after many IEO listing with big market many investor move to IEO and get faster profit than invest with ICO, by investing in IEO just take one weeks they can sell their coin.
