ICO is no longer so profitable and popular now in the cryptoindustry as before. HYIP is gone and people no longer invest like crazy into anything. And on good exchanges they only conduct an IEO (a new way of ICO) of quality projects.
There is a projects started by professionals in the blockchain industry, who know their business and market sentiment exactly. Investors are now much more cautious: I noticed that recently only carefully thought-out, technological and fairly decentralized coins receive support, move on and achieve success.
In particular, I really like the project Veil. The network started without any ico at all, but it is already traded on exchanges. There was no premine, the network is supported solely by the community, which is growing day by day. The coin, like Bitcoin, is deflationary and only 14,668,633 coins will be issued in total - less than Bitcoins. It is the privacy (anonymous) coin and very technological. The price is now only 33 cents, but the dynamics of the growth of attention to the coin from the community is very impressive and who knows what kind of price will we see in future.)

When you don't research before investing, it will be like you are throwing your money away. You have to research about the project at all cost before investing in it. Researching will inform you of the details of the project.

Not just in ICO but in all of your investment .
You should know what you are investing in so you wouldn't be a victim of scams.
You shouldn't be lazy to just put up your money if you don't want to cry because of being scam .

It's actually undoubted that people always do research before investing. What makes people still falling to a scam project is because each people has a different research methods. Also, the difference point of view from each people can make this worse. Unfortunately, we are not able to unite other people's view.

Today year of 2019 ICO's are not profitable for me because there a lot of project that seems legit but actually scam. So doing research is good for those who wanted to stay investing in ICO.
Indeed. Most of ICOs nowadays has a good whitepaper and attractive platform; however most of them are just inspired by successful projects that are launched way back in 2017. Thus, doing a research before investing nowadays isn't enough. In my opnion more factors should be considered.

No doubt. I do research rigorously before investing in any project. After all I do not want to waste my hard earned money in a shit thing. I also want others interesting in investing in cryptocurrency to research thoroughly before making their investment in it. Reports say that the market is filled with many fake projects always on the look out to rob investors and bounty hunters. So be aware of them.

There is no investment without risk but investing in ICO has higher risk than other ways in crypto space ,I prefer to build mining rigs or invest in well known coins or tokens or even STO or IEO ,ICO isn't just my thing anymore ,if anyone still have interest in ICO investment I'd say they need to be extremely careful because there is a higher chance they are getting in scam project

Any investor run to into many findings and research for reliable, and genuine probably investment company, for the safety and security of their money that is why they are very careful to ICOs before doing any investment.  Bu we all know that in any business there has to be sacrifice and risk and sometimes failure before coming into one great successful project.

This is very good advice and it applies to all types of investments in the cryptocurrency space, however ICOs aren't as popular as they were last year or the year before that and now the focus is on IEOs and the soon to be gaining in popularity STOs (Security Token Offerings) which will require token issuers to apply for registration with financial authorities such as the SEC before launching their offering which will remove some of the risks involved in investing

ICOs, or Initial Coin Offerings, have become a popular way for cryptocurrencies to raise funds from the public. However, they have also become an easy way to prey on the vulnerable, and the financial regulator recently warned customers about what it calls “these very high risk, speculative investments”. It warns that there’s little consumer protection and high potential for fraud, as well as high volatility. Some ICOs are regulated by the FCA, but this is on a case-by-case basis, depending on how they are structured.

As the FCA says, you should fully research any ICO before handing over your money. “You should only invest in an ICO project if you are an experienced investor, confident in the quality of the ICO project itself,” a spokesman says. Alternatively, consider investing or trading with a regulated provider.

Of course, I think it's very important for every investor. I mean how can any person invest their money before know anything about project. Not only research i think before invest your money contact their team for any confusing. Tell them about their road map, their future plan. Tell them to send you email for every update. It's money man you don't want to loose it anyway.

Analyzing cryptocurrency projects today is very profitable, because if you do not analyze projects, you can just lose everything you have, I think that you simply must do it. Data analysis in any case will be beneficial to you.
Not profitable but less risky, if you analyze projects before investing your money you'll value your money and improving your chance to find project that will generate good value, you need to evaluate and make things possible for a better investment outcome.

It's imperative that everyone has to be extra careful before investing in ICO's. The cryptocurrency industry is a very interesting industry and to be honest, the issue of scam ICO is very rampant. Over 70% of the ICO's are potentially a scam project. I personally won't advise anyone to invest in ICO's. Its best to wait and buy low from the exchange when the project is listed.

Research before investing is the most important thing, this is money and we know that 1 cent of the money we spend must be according to plan, especially crypto is the most risky investment so we have to do repeated research.

First of all you must do your research before investing on some ico's etc. Reading some articles and whitepapers about the ICOs or project that has been running you must have the knowledge about that ICO or project to avoid some mistakes or some scam ico so that it may lessen the victim of those shit ICOs. It is like investing in a gambling or depositing your money into a
bitcoin casino you must need to know what and how the website is going on and how will you play that game and how you will earn good profit about it.

This is of course very obvious, own research about the project is mandatory prior buying some coin or token.
Otherwise, you may will lose your money because bad ICO or the worst, scam ICO.
But doing own research is not easy, it will consume most of your time.

That's sure. Any investments has also risky, so to protect our money, we must do our own research before invest in. In crypto market, we have seen a lot of projects which scammed. Bitcointalk forum is one of places to search/ report scammers.

I remember when I've read a topic before stating that, bounty managers contribute greatly on which projects to choose, and I think it is really effective if we are going to see the need to figure out which ICO is the best through the best bounty managers that we can encounter here on the bitcoin talk forum?

I do not think that the salary of the manager can be judged on the project. Because they are also easy to bribe. Do you think everyone here is monitoring their reputation? Provide a couple of scams nothing terrible. This is not an option.
