We can't judge overall ICO industry with failed or scammed ICOs. Some ICO's are still very great for early contributors.
Recent days there have been many successful ICOs, both the project itself and investors.

These are two different activities: participating in an ICO and trading. It is always up to you to decide what to take up, but it is okay to wait for some time for profits. It is absolutely normal. If you cannot wait , then you'd better go for trading Wink

ICOs has being the hot cake for crypto investors in recent times and this has seen whitelists and crowdsales getting saturated up within minutes of opening.

In the process of projects hitting their hardcap early, some investors will have their funds stuck and will have to wait days sometimes weeks to get a refund.

So here's my question; are ICOs still worth the hustle and tussle or is it better off to get coins/tokens on the exchange?

The decision will depend on the person. If you think that ICO is not benefitting you, then you can have other options. However, buying coins during the ICO period will be cheaper and afordable. If you will buy coins on the exchanges, then you need a good capital. ICO is still worthy to join because it can give you a good profit. Only if you choose the right ICO.

There is no need in hustle in the question of ICO of course. It is more necessary to analyze scrupulously the project and find its flaws and benefits. This is really important. There are a lot of projects but not of them are worthy.

You can't rate overall ICO industry like "one size fits all". Some ICO's are still very great for early contributors. Some are just phonies

 In recent years, there have been many successful ICOs, both the project itself and especially in measuring the yield for investors. Not all the projects benefit their investors, dont invest too much of your portfolio in one ICO. ICO still worthy which you choose right way and wisely.

the ICO still worth to try and it is another solution for us to make a lot of money if the ico is a success. but we need to find the good ico that will have a good project and will work for a long-term. before we invest in ico, it is always better to read the details, be active in the ico projects so we know the latest news about the ico so we can decide to join the ico if we think that the ico will get success.

I prefer buying it on a known exchange rather than buying on ICO. It is profitable to buy ICO if it pumps but it is very risky considering there are too many ICO that is trying to scam investors.

I think the whole cryptocurrency market and recently is not very good, so I suggest not to participate in the financing of the ICO project, directly in the exchange to buy tokens, because recently in the exchange to buy tokens, directly will be lower than its ico price.

Hi, too much artificial "buzz" creates about ICO. Not all ICOs are created equal and you have to take the good with the bad if you’re going to invest in this space. As more and more ICOs enter this market, it’s important to have the right framework for evaluating open-source projects.

to be honest i don't think investing in any of the ICOs so far been a good idea. it doesn't matter if they gave you some profit, they are still not a good choice for an investment.
and the only reason they got this big in my opinion is that a lot of newbies came in crypto space in last year with a lot of money to invest and they dumped it in what was advertised most and lost a lot of it too.

Yeah but not like past. Most icos become successful doing soft cap nowadays but we don't see past hype, icos doing hard cap or 10x in release at all. I think bear market damaged crowdfunding process. Its not in golden age anymore.

It is actually up to you and your strategy. There are only two ways to do it. Either buy the coins during their ICOs and earn discounts and bonuses or wait for such coins to get listed in major and reliable exchanges. Both are great techniques. Investing in ICOs is a bit riskier than buying in exchanges but the profit is bigger in case the coin pumps. Buying in exchanges is safer but there will be no more discounts and bonuses. So choose which one do you prefer. I do both depending on the specific coin.

If I were you I choose to buy the coins during ICOs and earn discounts because in some ways you can earn a bigger profit than nothing.and for me altcoins is worth a tassle because will never know what the future brings.

Most recent ICOs always sell over 50-60% during their Presale & the crowd are left to compete for a few tokens.
This shouldn't be.

Everyone should have equal right to buy "that's one of the purpose of decentralization the blockchain offers"

I like ICOs that give equal opportunity and set a specific gas limit, so that people who break the rules don't get in.

the Devs of ICOs should be more concerned about the community rather than money, it will go a long way.

Recent ICO gives too much share/bonus to pre-sale investors. ICO investors become bag holders. Not going into ICO anytime soon.

Great points...
ICOs provide great mouth watering bonuses but when 50,000 people are competing for 10,000 spots more than a lot will miss out.
The problem however is after some people miss out, they start to spread FUD on the community in order to make weak hands sell as soon as it gets on exchanges, this also affects the value of the tokens.

Yes ......but look up the developers and important lead roles on LinkedIn, GitHub, Twitter, etc. If you can't find consistent accounts with names, faces, and past projects, this is a BIG red flag that the ICO may be a scam .......Ask questions. Reddit, slack channels, email, whatever; give the devs a poke and ask about the project. r/ethtrader is generally a good jumping-off point
