I think yes, ICO era is gone and we can never see it again, it is transformed to IEOs and other types of fundrising, but when the market is down and there are no new people and fresh money on it all of that stuff is not working, as you can see not a lot of IEOs and running right now.

It was really dead. Because the contracts are unclear and there is no protection for investors. After we have poured money into the project, we have nothing but confidence in the project's promise of their distant dreams. We have no voting rights, we don't have a voice, and they can ignore us at any time if we raise our opinions. I believe that ICO really should not exist in the future and it should be replaced by STO.

ICO is as good as dead with the current situation of the market but they will be revive back to life once there is bullrun and investors and traders have some funds to flip around. Let's see how events unfold in the industry, even if ICO and IEO do not come back again, a new funding model for blockchain projects will surely spring up

ico currently does not have a different popularity like 2017. Nowadays many investors prefer IEO. I think the bad thing in the past from ico that made it now is not needed by many people

if there is a good project doing ICO, it also will not get much attention from investors if they do not support advertising in large media. because marketing like that is also very necessary. It's the same as IEO, even though the project is good, but not using a good and large exchange, it just won't help their marketing.
I think this is because investors are not so interested anymore in the ICO and IEO projects, so many developers don't want to make IEO / ICO anymore. in addition, many scammers also have this effect. I just hope that projects can re-emerge as the bitcoin price recovers due to the upcoming halving.IEO still gets interested from investors, there are many successfull IEO. and it grows as time goes by
In 2019 there have already been 32 IEOs launched of the 47 listed on ICObench. The completed IEOs have raised over $159 million.

ICOs are dead. You may be surprised when you know that not all ICO manages to raise funds. Often a majority of ICOs don’t raise any funds at all while some ICOs raise a certain amount. It’s actually statistically very rare that an ICO manages to raise their soft-cap amount let alone their hard-cap. Initial Model Offering is the best way to go about fund raising.

ICO is really dead cause a whole lot of investors lost huge funds especially in late 2018, some of those projects could not have even list on a reasonable exchange which and exited scam. IEO is a better way of fundraising though we are still expecting extraordinary
As of now it really looks dead but its chances is still very low when the market recovers, why? because we have IEO that will surely penetrate more in the market, when the investments will flow again, people will not look for ICO to invest but on IEO and at the same time they will also invest on coins that are already trading in exchanges, because they are still cheap at the start of the rally.

Maybe ico are dead now since nobody is interested in participating in any ico projects, people are only looking towards participating in ieo this days, since new project will always look for a way to raise funds for their project, ieo will always be around except new project have decided to be self funded which i highly doubt,
another alternative will be to try out the new Initial Model Offering - IMO which i see their signature in many thread this days, although it is quite new idea of fund raising but it seem a bit better than the rest.

that is not a reason why ICO / IEO is decreasing from year to year. I think this is because investors are not so interested anymore in the ICO and IEO projects, so many developers don't want to make IEO / ICO anymore. in addition, many scammers also have this effect. I just hope that projects can re-emerge as the bitcoin price recovers due to the upcoming halving.

Even after the onset of the bear market in January 2018, ICOs were still happening at a rate
of well over a hundred each month, but by 2019 the flow of projects had dwindled to almost nothing.
ICO PROCEEDS DROP TO $338M..
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?
it's really hard to predict if ICO's will completely disappear next yearof well over a hundred each month, but by 2019 the flow of projects had dwindled to almost nothing.

but if the scam in ICO's will continue more people will not participate in ICO's next year even in bounties, many people stop doing it already

Probably because investors finally learned that most ICO are just a bunch of ponzi schemes. You can hardly even find good ICO project in 2018 yet people still invest on them make effort on promoting their logo just to get scammed. 2019 is the age for good quality projects with well funded founders and real live team not posers you often see in ICO.
November 26, 2019, 09:49:51 AM
ICOs project has not very popular these day because of the new IEOs project are more safest then ICOs projects but still investors are still hesitant to join any new projects. The decline on any new projects has lead a lot of failed projects. No wonder investors afraid to invest on ICOs.
November 26, 2019, 09:43:50 AM
If we look at the market conditions from 2018 indeed ICO has declined slowly, and now it can indeed be said that many people are hesitant to invest or participate in new ICO projects because of the many scams that make them not want to rush in investing in ICO projects the. It may take some time or a factor that can drive ICO growth again.

ICO is not dead yet, many ICOs have failed because there are now too many scammers who have run off investors' money, so many investors are afraid to invest. But if their project and team are real and have a good product then they will make a lot of money at ICO, one example that we can see is ICO BCNEX
BCNEX is not an ICO in the usual sense. They had a fundraiser called the Angle Round that raised $ 1 million.
After this, they conduct IEO sessions on the platform of their exchange, with the involvement of various currencies, both fiat and crypto.
As a result, they managed to raise a good pool of funds. But I would call it IEO.

lol you know that there are many scammers, and that's why ICOs going to deadICO doesnt have any trust on investors anymore, so the investment in ICO almost dissapear
im sure too in the near future, ICO would dead. it would change to IEO
November 26, 2019, 07:39:03 AM
If anyone can name a successful ICO I would be very surprised.
Ferrum Network had a successful ICO. But if we consider the success percentage which is very minimal, it might just be safe to say that ICOs are dead. Even the IEO frenzy is fast waning out. Perhaps, investors have understood that IEOs don't really mean they won't loose money but only a more secure means of investing into a project.
November 26, 2019, 07:38:43 AM
In my opinion, not all ICOs died because there were some that I knew were able to achieve the soft cap target compared to some projects that did IEO. It might be difficult to achieve the hard cap target when market conditions are not good but it does require a new project that is good and has a partnership with a well-known company so that investor confidence in ICO returns
November 26, 2019, 07:16:22 AM
at this time not even many ICOs and Bounties have appeared this month, before 2020 it might be really what researchers said that ICO is indeed no longer profitable, seeing some projects die and not getting any funds from investors in their ICO, eventually many projects dead and abandoned, I think there will be better in the future whether that's what? but let's just look at it, please stay away from the ICO project and the Bounties at this time there really isn't anything profitable there
