that in the past ICO projects performed very well if they used ERC20 tokens or projects built on established platforms. because it has the potential to grow well and reduce risk when compared to creating new technology. but now on the contrary I don't see ICO functioning properly even though it's built on an existing platform like ERC20.
It's too easy to create some token with ERC20 blokchain. And this is the saddest and greatest part for this technology. Saddest because any one can create their own token and they can easily scam you. And many scammers take this chance and scam lot of people. In my opinion It's better idea to create token/coin of their own blockchain technology now.
I will not blame the platform because the platform has been built in such a way, but I will blame the developer, Why? because most developers have misused this for crypto schemes to get rich and most project failures are based on the background of developers who do not have extensive knowledge and deliberately tarnish the ICO project's bad image.
I agree with you. Many projects team don't know how to use blockchain, how it works and how the concept/idea will help regular people. They just create some token and try to make rich theme self (not all of them). Even you can't find any project team or dev after the token sale. It's seems like i got my money now bye.
