HODLing is an art, not just a word...
I think it's more profitable to participate in the ICO in the early stages of pre-sale, because you will have the opportunity to sell coins as soon as the project reaches the stock exchanges, at a price higher than the one for which you buy them. And then later you can buy back these coins on the exchange at a much lower price, and spend the difference for your needs.

ICOs are always going to be a bad type of investment because of their high risks which makes them more like a gamble. the earlier you join one of them the more risk you are taking because it is still unknown and it will remain unknown but near the end at least you can have a better notion of how scammy they are.

Its is worth to buy an altcoins in the exchange than to participate in ICO to invest,  why?  Because it is already listed in exchange and you dont have to waste your time waiting to be listed then trade it, it is easy to hold an altcoins that already listed,  because you can trade it whenever you want, unlike in the ICO, but rarely it can gives you a really good profits. For me i preferred to invest in altcoins.

At first I can say that there is nobody will truly share it for you Smiley. You need to spend your time, your money to learn about it by yourself or from other but it's not free Smiley.

If you wanna know anything so you need to learn about it first so I think instead of asking other people in here why don't you find out some courses out there? Beside as I know Theymos, admin of this forum, is going to run courses about cryptocurrency and blockchain in this forum so you should take a look about it Smiley

If you find a great ico then it's better if you can join the presale because they offer better bonus and you will have a lower entry price, right now in bear market most projects have a low price when listed at exchange but it is still a gamble, if the price is good then you'll have to buy it with more expensive price.

For me, I am more likely to invest or buy in exchange than to invest in ICOs.

ICO is also promising, but there’s more possibility to lose your investments or even scam. You are not 100% safe with ICOs.

Unlike the coins in exchange, coins are guaranteed and safe because it's already listed and successfull.

I think that the person himself should make such a choice, because no one can say exactly what will happen to the tokens after ICO, many projects today are not conscientious, but if you stick to the classical model, you need to invest in ICO

The safest way is to buy altcoin on the exchange. If we can evaluate the potential ICO projects and develop them in the future, we should invest in the presale period.

Yes, ICOs is good for investment but, be careful some are scams. If you read their whitepaper, roadmap, team etc properly then, you have a idea you invest or not. If you don't mind take a look about scidex. It's such a great project and main good for science development.

The best think is that you have to buy a any new tokens or new coins before going to trade at any exchanges men's you have buy in ico stage and get good returnees for your investments. but you have to take care about that you are invested in good ico's only.

It is best to buy between that time (Pre-sale invest or Exchange buying). you should buy at the time the ICO reach softcap or half the hardcap crowdfund. this is the time with linear phase of secure investment and high income. Also, please keep watching the legitimate of crowdfunding progress. that has been much fake ICO progress to attract more investors.

There is a correlation between market condition and ICO performance. Usually ICO aren't able to perform well in bear phase and hence, when their token gets listed on an exchange, the price tumble belows the original ICO price. So, if you are interested in investing in an ICO token, invest after the listing. That is what I am doing until this accumulation stage gets over.

I prefer to buy in exchange than participate in ico because many ico when into the market the price is very low. Lower than ico price and make me loss. So i choose to buy in exchange to get much profit.  Because ico is now very rare when it goes to exchange price above ico price.

Lately I haven't been trying to buy a tokens during ICO and even during presale. experience shows that over time, sooner or later the price will fall below ICO and there will be a chance to buy. But for this you need to monitor the market constantly, so as not to miss this moment. Wink

in past im doing it all.investing in ico,participating in bounty campaigns and buying that coins when released in market,but when the damn scammers rule the altcoin section i lost my appetite on this and turn into daytrading in which i have been inloved,and never comeback supporting ico projects

Maybe if the regulations in regards to this scamming are indeed then i will consider investing in bounty again hopefully

I was mostly ICO before, but now it's not a risk. At the moment, I try to participate in the Preico stages. And better of course in a closed sale to get, but there is a large amount of investment needed

I am rarely putting my money into an early ICO sale. If only there is successful private sale then also I will think about it and then will investment. ICO's are dangerous these days to put trust on them so early. There are big people out there who dont care if they loose some money, let them make investment first and see if there is successful fund raiser. If yes then comes the time for public sale where we jump.

Usually I prefer first option, to buy altcoins when they are in exchanger and then make your investment. Trade over there so that you can always make worthy investment.

I prefer to invest in the pre-sale stage, especially if the token is offered with a significant discount. However, recently on the exchanges you can catch even more interesting price.

Not all good coins on ICO has presale stage. ICO's with huge hype was very quickly and without bonus. Or these bonuses were received by big pool participations. Not simply.

I prefer investing for altcoin because the risk is relatively low. Ico is very promising to bring great profits, but must be selective in choosing. You can check everything about the project before investing in it.

it depends. you can buy almost 95% percent of all the ico tokens for a lower price after they list them on an exchance. the rest is still a x4 or x5 or x6 after the listing, but it's very difficult to buy some of them during the  ico because the rush is so high.

last year it could also happened, that you participated in an ico without any presale discount and you also made good gains, but this time is over. so i would say, if you have the opportunity to get in an ico with a good discount and the project sounds promising, you can try it. but i think the big and success ico area is over, because there are just too many.

I would rather buy altcoins in exchange, because buying coins in exchange you will get the coins you buy and if the price goes up directly, different from participating or buying in the initial investment, we can get the coin or tokens we buy after the ICO finished plus the coin not yet entered in the market, it takes a long time and very boring.

invest in ICO even presale will certainly get a cheap price but of course, this will also put at risk if the price after the ICO will usually decline. Sometimes the ICO also is not always successful and can also be a hindrance. better buy after ICO from the bounty that has always sold cheaply because they panic. It is great low prices and many investors sometimes also utilize the moment for immediate purchase.

In most cases it's better to participate in presales, as ICOs usually offer bonuses for early birds. But there're still some risks when ETH price changes a lot. For example, if you invested on presale when ETH was around 1000$ and the crowdsale started when ETH is 3 times lower than your tokes are 3 times more expensive than those that are sold on the crowdsale.

Investing in ICO becomes so risky with this wave of scam projects but if you find some trustworthy ones, and you have a gooud amount to invest then it's preferable to purchase token from the pre-ico to get much more bonus. In the other side, i found it better to buy tokens after the resume of the crowdsale and hit one or two exchanges; This may garantee the profitability of the token even in medium term or short term holding.

I prefer to wait for coins to go on an exchange to buy because so many coins that are ICO’s never develop into anything. Usually a coin only makes it to an exchange if they have passed a lot of hurdles and are a legitimate project. That doesn’t mean they will succeed, but there is a higher probability.

However, if you can get tokens for free from an airdrop, that’s even better.

Bounty Management? https://t.me/Luminos17
if you do not want to take risks, you'd better participate in bounty or airdrop on ICO and you'll get some coins for you to hold or you sell, but you also have to analyze which ICOs are good and which are fraudulent. or you can also buy some coin on a big market for you to invest your money

well many of us come to alt coin to make more btc. For me to choose one coin was to search at the twitter, looking for some coins, screening them and eventually buy some of these coins.
here some aspect that's you want to mind before choosing anything https://twitter.com/CryptoBulld0g/status/956878022421950464  check this guy out.

Some ICO better if you can buy in presale with that's a huge bonus, that's was the edge to buy on ICO, if you want to be safe just buy aftermarket listing, there's will be some dips

the first thing we must do before investing is to decide which coins we will invest and not scam. buying within ICO will usually lead to losses so in my opinion there are only two options, namely buying in pre-sale or waiting listed on the exchange.

It depends on how much the risk would you like to take, and obviously just like any other investment. 'High risk, High Return'. Buying on ICO especially on the presale with a tremendous discount, will give you much, but if and only if your ICO can get to the exchange. And if it doesn't make it to exchange, you instantly lost your fund, and *poof* its all gone. While if you buy when the coin is get into exchange, you will have total control of your asset, if you think the project is bad then you can sell the coin directly, or if you think the project is promising then you can add your portfolio.

My own strategy of investing in coins is doing bounty to get rewards commensurate to the task given to execute. I'll definitely like to participate in ICOs when I have enough fund but one must be careful in choosing which project to join it's ICO in other to stay clear of scam

A lot. Only try to do some analyzation based on the various resources to get the best result to choose which is the best one to become my next investment place. I just try to get into the pre-sale if the project looks promising and try to buy again when it was on the exchange site. But I prefer to buy in the exchange site if that was not including on the promising one.

to find out where my best coins usually only do a little research on the coins plus some information provided by some of my friends. and to choose where to invest I usually buy when the coins are registered in the market because after the list on the market average coins have a great dump.

Of course, it is more advantageous to buy coins on ico, but sometimes the ico coin becomes cheaper after ico and then you can buy it even cheaper, and then sell it above the ico price if it grows, so decide for yourself. There is no guessing, we need analysis!

I have the way to choose project to invest, i apply the same to ICO and altcoin have listed in exchange. The team member of project should to be come from China (i highly appreciate friends from China, because they do business very well), next the project will help what for all people, the detail for project (roadmap rating bad for roadmap still have less 20 pages), then investor and community of project

Yes, I totally agree with you, investing on pre-sale and participating in ICO will make you huge profits as there are many bonuses or discounts, its just that it is very risky because many of them are frauds. You must research everything to know about that ICO.
