I think we can based the price in the fundamentals of the project like the overall product, uses cases and if it's for long-term. If we know that a project can be worth it in the future then overpriced or not it's a good buy.
usefull coins in crypto market will have high value.so its difficult to said it is overpriced or not.in my opinion it depend on market supply and demand.if demand to coins so high ofcourse it value will be expensive and vice versa.

Nowadays, the ICOs are not just over-priced, but premature as well. Many of the projects decide to go for the ICO before the development is even 10% complete. And in most cases, the development remains frozen after the ICO is done. Once they encash their tokens, the team members lose their interest in the project and they get engaged with something else.

In every case, an initial offering is speculation. Prices can move both ways, both short- and long-term. It can be difficult to decouple hype and FOMO from genuine expectation. Crypto offerings suffer more from FOMO and more from price volatility, purely due to being crypto.

So I would say it is probably easier to determine likely true value of an initial offering if it is non-crypto, and especially if it is from an established company that is just going to the public. Then you have at least some understanding of the business model and how it has been working in practice, and how a route to profitability may pan out. With crypto, much less so - even if it is an established company that is now dipping into crypto - in most cases you can't really tie the likely success of the asset to the success of the company itself (although Facebook may be an outlier here).

Crypto initial offerings mean increased hype, increased FOMO, increased volatility and also potentially much greater reward or a drop to $0.

The one thing I would be wary of at the moment is IEOs - they really seem to be hugely over-hyped, especially Binance ones.

i think why people say that Initial Offerings are Overpriced because the bonus that they give , just giving 50% token whenever buy 20 eth + was insane bonus i guess
When you see any ICO company giving out 50 percent easily, just know that they have over valued the coin and if you divide the initial rice by 2, that is exactly the value worth of such projects, most of these projects are really over value, it is just the way inflation works on a country by different business men and women, you see someone buy a product for $1, and then sell it for about $20, but before selling it, he would have over hyped the product as being the most quality, meanwhile the seller know the truth.

Only these developers know exactly that they over value their project but they will never own up to that fact so that the project will not look like a small company.

Well back then ICO is a way to get the alt-coin in a much more cheaper price but right now ,
It seem's like ICO's are over price because every time that their crypto gets listed it would always be dump and be more cheaper than their actual ICO price.
We couldn't really say that it is over price because it was the initial price set by the creator the market just made their crypto price lower due to the low demand.

Likely,that is why prices fell too short from the ICO price when traded on exchanges.

This shows the intention of the new projects so people need to research and analyse before investing or they will be the one suffers later.

Lyft, Pinterest, Zoom, Uber… these are the big names went to IPOs recently.
It seems IPOs are roaring back, especially compared with the freezing winter for ICOs.
SophonEX uses data to study whether the winter will also appear for IPOs, and shall we invest in these initial offerings? If so, how?

We should really invest. Because the crypto market is really lacking in big and prestigious businesses in the business world. If the big guys join, it will attract many other investors.
and after being listed on exchange, its value will be inflated because too many people want to buy.

Maybe, this article has something to verify why all coins dumped when they listed on exchange. But they are not suppose to have an inference which stated as over pricing in the initial coin offering. Because if it was overpriced then, why there are people who sold it in a lower price? Do not blame bounty hunters because even BH have their own standards on when they are going to sell their coins. Another thing, almost 2% or less of the token supply only allocated in almost bounties. So, definitely investors are also the one that dump the coin. Because they want to buy again in much lower price.

As far as my experienced joining ICO's before? I would say yes they've indeed overprice themselves. And I think this is one contributory factor to the downturn of most ICO's of today.

They initially thought that there are demands, unfortunately when everything is set, listing on exchanges etc etc, the price just died naturally and not even hitting its supposedly market price.

When ICO were introduced, they were of low value and when the coins hits the exchanges the price raises 2x - 3x but later the ico began to lose their value. The ico coins prices went even down when they reaches the exchange. Now people do not buy coin in ico and prefer to get it lower prices at exchanges.

it seems this issue with market valuation and token supply is still a big problem in the crypto economy. the question is simple yet the answer is difficult. how do we know that the supply is not too much and the initial price is the right amount?

most of the time, ico company just decide that they'll make this or that amount of tokens, and considering the number of that tokens, then they'll need to price their token at X dollars to get reach the hardcap. seems an easy thing to do but then it raises more questions as to the valuation and ecosystem value later on.

if anyone is interested, this is a good topic for their research though.

I don't think coins offerings do overpriced their tokens. It just the price will drop once exchange is online because most investors who avail bunoses dump their coins which compliment to the total supply in the market.

Are you really going to get some answers here and apply it to your investing choices and decision?
Me?! No. I want to create my own investigations with this type of ICO's. That way you will not be blaming anyone or anything but just yourself.
Also, regrets will be on you and that is where you will rise again.

If it is overpriced for you then let it go. Pick another one which is cheap but have a better feature for the future.
ICO's now tend to die in just a year or even after ICO. Better look deeply in their management if they are that strong to stay finishing the roadmap.

When investing in startups you are not paying for current revenues but for growth expectations. Do you expect these companies to have a massive growth in the next years? If that's the case they might not be as overpriced as you think.

Exactly, you as early investors are risking your money for the future of the project, if you believe it has great potential to grow, that would give a good return of your money.

Just like in ICO, we buy at ICO price and if the price is trading over ICO price, that is already profit when you sell.
However, some still hold as they see in the long run it will make them more profitable.

What I believe is easy to determine is whether the project is overvalued or undervalued.

If a company is already well renown then there is no point in giving away the starting price at so low , therefore it is supposed to be something that is enough to make their place justified.

On the other hand

If a company is starting from a scratch then they give away a price that is very well thought of , a price which actually goes well what they have put together in all the amount of time , and this price tends to be not high .

Therefore I think it is totally fair to be able to choose a price for your company , because it's them not us who actually have worked hard to create that .

I think price is reasonable howsoever they put it but this reason also sometimes have boundaries.

But I think they are not overly priced.

You don't have to invest with them if you are not sure and you don't have any clue about the project. It is better to play safely in any of investment because we don't want to get scam by them. If you still want to invest with them, you need to search for more details about the project so you can find what project that will be good in the long-term and that is not easy to find them.

Some time initial offering or IEO have over priced but many time IEO coin have lower price how ever great or best exchange it self, last time we know about IEO of matic coin have lower price after active for trading on exchange.
Most of the ICO’s we have in the market are overpriced to me, especially the ones that are under performing and until they proved themselves not to after they get listed and we see that they have working product that is making their value increase.

The projects that I cannot classify as being overpriced are premined projects, because they already have a value from their personal establishment and from such value, they can really calculate the worth of the project which will be based on that they will offer shares to the public, unlike all these other ICOs that doesn’t have startup capital and then just fix value based on what they assume will be the future value.
