The hardest time to invest is in a bear market. You end up purchasing little amount of tokens for more ETH or BTC. But it's also a good time for projects to collect good sums of money during their crowdfunding, as ETH or BTC goes up, so does the value of the funds raised.

The question now is, will you invest in ICOs, or stick with investing in market dips (buy low, hodl and wait to go up and sell), or simply trade in bear markets?


I believe yes because there are lots of good Icos to invest with. However, we just have to choose which the best one is. I'd love to have a good ico with a potential and good platforms just to assure that I'll have a good gain through it. I am willing to take the risk but I'll make sure to choose the best one.

I'd rather stick to invest during the market dips and only buy those coins at the cheaper price and hold it for few months. While I'm holding those coins, as normal practice will do some trades to.

I agree with what you think, I also prefer investing, because with my investment, I have to make a profit every day now, because now the price goes up and down, when prices go down I have the opportunity to buy, if I invest ICO is less interested.

If the project has a good potential, marketing, a great idea then why not. But it's still a risk.

I dont think i can but rather i will wait for the listing on exchange because it will be cheaper. Buy more on exchange. But the problem is most icos this period are currently postponing their exchange listing probably because of the bearish market.

I think it's illogical to postpone listing. If you've raised your required sum, go ahead and least... And with a buy back program you can gain more tokens.
To date, a lot of projects are doing the wrong things, because after the end of the ico the company is delayed to enter the stock exchange for trading. If the project really has prospects, then each holder is only interested in increasing the price, and therefore will not sell coins immediately after entering the other platform.

This is the best time to invest in crypto space, bear market means cheap tokens so buy now and hold until the market recovers then you can sell with good profits later

Since I am a long-term investor, of course I will use the current market situation in order to buy promising crypto currency and keep it until the price for it grows at least 5 times.

Long term investment with small capital on best ICO is more advised in bear market. The current situation is even if a legit ICO is listed on an exchange, its value is traded under the ICO price. Though the respected coin’s growth can not be expected, can purchase and keep for a long term to get minimum turn over. So choose the best ICOs and go for a long term investment.

It is very difficult to invest in such times.
Don't invest to such coins or ico's that you aren't sure of.
Ico investments have not made a lot of money in recent times. even the price of many coin dropped very much after ico. For this reason I am not investing Smiley
Don't invest to ICOs today, many complained that scams are out there.

You have to be very selective in order to choose a profitable one. The bear market delayed many interesting ICOs. Sooner or later, the bear market will come to an end, so a new kind of ICOs might shine in the future.

You can, another thing is the question you should or not Cheesy and what ICO, as generalising in this matter is not the right question I think.

So yes, you can invest in ICO in bear market, but looking at so many alts at really good prices I would rather buy some already listed, undervalued good projects' tokens before participating in an ICO.

Its good time since most of the people would be afraid investing, hence you have the chance to getting the most of the supply and be able to control the market when its get listed on exchanges.

As practice has shown, ICO is very popular due to the speed and simplicity of the organizer and participation from investors.

In a bear market, the price of altcoins will keep dropping. Investing in ICOs in a bear market is foolish because many people will sell them (even at a loss) when the coin reaches an exchange. It is a no brainer the price will drop below its ICO price. I prefer buying existing coins that have dropped a lot from its ICO price.
We must remain optimistic and avoid extraordinary panic. Panic will only make things worse.
We should be optimistic and increasingly believe in cryptocurrency. This will help cryptocurrency improve.
We must be able to play a role in increasing the volume of altcoin transactions now, continue to use altcoins and more levels of altcoin usage so that a bear market like this can stop quickly.

It's very hard to tell for investing an ICO. Mostly ICO comes up with nothing, they are just scammer who wants to collect money from investors for their own greed. Not all ICOs are actually like that, some of ICO end up being successful. They're even manage to list on the top of coinmarketcap. Not the first one, but they manage to survive in the market storm and maintain their position in top 50. It's not safe to invest in ICO, so I prefer waiting until it releases in the market.

In a bear market, price appreciation on listing happens only for very good ICOs. Many ICOs are trading below ICO prices so need to watch for that. Once bull resumes, big price jumps after listing will be more common.
