Come on! All cryptos are down these day, some even 90% from ATH. ICOs have the poor performances because they pre-sell discounted tokens which then get dumped on regular investors.
Ethereum is one of the strongest platforms/coins out there.
Topic: ETH dead as ICO cools down (Read 533 times)
I think you shouldn't be panic just because of ETH price is falling at the moment. There are so many cryptocurrencies on crypto market and ETH is not the only cryptocurrency falling at the moment, even BTC is also falling as well. I think you should believe in ETH cause it's the best altcoin so there are no way or nobody can stop ETH rising back in next few weeks 
I believe that ethereum should not be underestimated in its potential, as it has been one of the few cryptocurrencies that has been able to maintain a solid community of supporters throughout its existence, and its team of developers has shown sufficient commitment to find practical solutions to the continuous challenges it faces in an increasingly competitive market.
In fact, the trust that many ICOs have had in the platform of ethereum to capitalize their projects is a solid proof of the reliability and potential that this altcoin still has among the crypto-enthusiasts, and this should not be considered as a weakness.

ICO's are calm down but there are still lots of projects which still using ETH blockchain. It will recover I believe when BTC comes to normal price and stabilizes a bit
As ICO cools down and a lot of projects are even dumping at lower prices than ICO, is there any hope for ETH prices to shoot again? Also there are some news that ICO projects are cashing out the large amount of ETH recently which even give ETH a more harder hit than other coins.
It is hard to imagine a rally in the future because of the said things but i am expecting some movement when the market recovers, most of the projects have cooled down and i am not even sure how many genuine projects are successful and with regulations coming up, it is hard to see any rally coming up in ETH.

Yes, the teams are cashing the crypto currencies out when the ICO is successfully finished. In average, the one ICO gathers 20 million USD, so this amount of coins comes to the crypto exchange markets in order to be sold. Some ICOs adopt not only ETH, they receive BTC, therefore Bitcoin is under financial pressure in the downward direction too.

Ethereum is still very well kept in relation to bitcoin, for example, Ripple has lost much more, so the reason is not in the ICO, reason in the general decline of the market There is a common effect in the market for all coins not just ETH, the current situation has affected all.ETH being one of the most Hit, but there is still hope, all is not lost, the market will recover with time and ETH will regain its valuation
That was the effect of bitcoin price the whole market is going down and i know Ethereum has the best platform when it terms of smart contracts and most of the ICO are created in ETHEreum Blockchain. looks like we have a good pump this month!
There are difficult periods in the life of each project. It's possible that ETH is going through this difficult time now as well as the market at all. We should not be upset, but should remain calm and wait. Crypto market is always recovers after a fall.
The various blockchain platforms need to monetize to develop their projects and then sell their ETH. In any case as soon as the market returns to grow, Ethereum, which is an exceptional project, I think it will grow again and exceed one thousand dollars
You cannot really tell this right now because overall the market is down. So you cannot specify that ETH is dead because all of the market is dying. Let the market recover, and if ETH is left behind, then you can say that ETH is dying. But I think it is still very much healthy. It still have a billion dollar volume in trading so pretty much alive.
Transactions are showing more than double cut from normal amount in most leading cryptos right now. Still there are about 500k transactions in 24 hours which means that ETH is alive.
I think ethereum will begin shooting up again this 3rd quarter of the year. It once proved that it can do it so why not give it a chance again. Meanwhile I think we should focus our attention to some of the new ICOs while waiting for the ethereum come back.
When BTC comback, ico price follow and eth will go up.

Ethereum does not depend on ICOs.
I hope that is perfectly clear. Ethereum's ICO side is just a very small portion of what makes ETH awesome. It is the coin of the future and the blockchain choice for many upcoming, and already existing, dAPPS (decentralized applications). There is a lot more room for ETH to grow. Buy some today and strap in for the ride.
the main cause why ETH price increase is people starting to buy ETH because they need this coin to convert their ICO tokens but this year many companies says ICO were bad and some of ICO project turn back to scam project which makes people thinking more to invest at ICO coin and automatically ETH price will gradually decrease but i think ETH still not dead and in my opinion decreasing price is not automatically dead
The world economy is depressed, the stock market and the digital encryption money market is red!
New investors did not enter the digital encryption money market, the market is short of trading!
So the price of digital encryption is falling!

The price of ETH affects the ICO. not ICO affect ETH. The price of ETH is down because of the downside of Bitcoin
Yes for the lending ico and no for the others.

The price of ETH fell due to profit taking activity of ICO owners. They sell ETH to make money to develop the project. At present, there are too many ICO projects and that is the reason for the decrease in ETH price. 
As ICO cools down and a lot of projects are even dumping at lower prices than ICO, is there any hope for ETH prices to shoot again? Also there are some news that ICO projects are cashing out the large amount of ETH recently which even give ETH a more harder hit than other coins.
I think the price of Ethereum increases when there are more ICO projects in the scene as many people then buy ethereum for buying their tokens from the projects which are providing their sale with ethereum coin. And as now we are seeing that the time of ICO projects has been started and many people are now ready to invest their money in it then once again the price of ethereum will increase. With that it is also a chance that the price of bitcoin will also increase because of the trust in crypto.
In same scenario you have point since most ico project are ethereum based which reflect to ethereum cases, We cannot say that ethereum are dead since the market situation are really crusial and most altcoin are in red blooded zone. Sooner or later ethereum will pump up to the moon again this sitiation is not permanent every altcoin are suffer on what happen to bitcoin (low market volume, and decrease of confidence)

I think ETH's price go down in recent times is on a down trend with Bitcoin. Beside, some bad ICO after taking ETH of investors, they sold big amount of ETH on market. This thing also make its price go down
I still strong believe in ETH, many ICOs still developing. Sooner or later ETH will comeback.
ETH price is related to BTC price. When BTC show stable grow-up trend you will see ETH is going up as well.
I notice that one too seems like bitcoin and ETH is like a twin if you see bitcoin going up rapidly you can see ETH also going up rapidly but if you see bitcoin is going down ETH also going down just like today. Bitcoin price is stable now and you can see eth price also stable now.
ETH price is related to BTC price. When BTC show stable grow-up trend you will see ETH is going up as well.
There is no strict relation between eth and btc. Just look at the charts of bitcoin and ethereum prices since the beginning of 2018 and you will see how different their paths are. https://imgur.com/a/6vFmpHowever, when bitcoin is going down, people start feeling unsure about the market in general and thus the price of ethereum goes down as well. And eth's price is also really affected by ico bans, because it is the basic platform for icos.
Yet I disagree with the op that eth is dead. It still has chances to recover, even though for now mining it is really unprofitable, taking into account the fact of eth fork that makes eth closer to not being mineable at all.
I think prices were pretty inflated towards the end of last year and we were due for a correction. Once we see the effects of regulations and some price corrections, will begin to see a bull market come back. Until then, this shakes out some weak hands and those with means pick up bargains.
Yes, regulation is good news for the market in the long term as it will rule out some scammers and give a more clean and sound environment for the blochchain technology! However, let's just hope that it is not that hard as what China did in 2017! As ICO cools down and a lot of projects are even dumping at lower prices than ICO, is there any hope for ETH prices to shoot again? Also there are some news that ICO projects are cashing out the large amount of ETH recently which even give ETH a more harder hit than other coins.
I think that the ICO does not have a great influence on the price of the Ethereum, they usually have effect, but it is not as significant as it seems. I think that the price may still fall slightly due to bitcoin instability. But I hope that soon everything will begin to growAs ICO cools down and a lot of projects are even dumping at lower prices than ICO, is there any hope for ETH prices to shoot again?

I think you're too worried about ETH. This is one of the most popular coins, which are now very often in circulation, so you should not bury it. It is now quite necessary society, demand - strengthens the market)
It seems to me that the price of eth depends not only on the demand for coins but also on the state of the ICO market. A lot of governments are waging an open war against ICO in any form. China's position is also irreconcilable. All this significantly weakens the cost of eth. I don't expect a large increase in the price of eth. This year the price of eth will be 0.06-0.08 btc.
China's position is irreconcilable? I doubt that. Chinese will alter its position and do "under the table" negotiations if given the chance. If you know what I meant by that. And if you know how Chinese minds work. But imo, eth is not dead. If you said that, then it is the same saying -bitcoin is dead.

seriously speaking i don't just know what is really going with and down fall of ether, we all think is coming up but with a rang of time it goes down again, the most painful thing is that the transaction are very weak.
Not at all, is much better to have cheap ether. I think that holding for a month may be the greatest mean of good financial result at a given moment .
I think you will need to be holding it for a little longer than a month to be profitable.
What you said will certainly happen, but not as serious as you say. As the market for ETH sold in the market will also pick up, the ICO boom will cool down, but ETH will not die.
I think it's someone's game! It seems to me ether can still fall a little, but in the end it still declares itself! we are waiting and I think soon there will be a jump up
I think the ICO if it affects the price of ethereum is negligible, currently The market is in a fire, fluctuating because bitcoin prices down and dragging the altcoins down by. and right now I think we just wait for the Bitcoin recovery.

I thin k it is a scam and we can see the price to be high again in the near futur. I won't sell the coins that I have until the pric eis high enough.ETH price is related to BTC price. When BTC show stable grow-up trend you will see ETH is going up as well.
It seems that ETH bleeds much more badly than others! However you are right that BTC prices will have an impact on others largely, but in such a bearish market, maybe the influence of bitcoin is also fading away a little bit! 
The possibilities of applying smart contracts to the whole ocean. Do not think that the ICO was their only application
its due to the whole market cap going down.

All the altcoins, including the ethereum, depend on bitcoin. The bitcoin falls and all the altcoins fall. I think ICO if it affects the price of the ethereum is insignificant. The main reason I think is in bitcoin. Over time, the market will recover and the ethereum will grow in value.
As ICO cools down and a lot of projects are even dumping at lower prices than ICO, is there any hope for ETH prices to shoot again? Also there are some news that ICO projects are cashing out the large amount of ETH recently which even give ETH a more harder hit than other coins.
I think that these are temporary difficulties caused by natural market processes. Ethereum will shoot again when the market goes into the green phase. Of course, there will be tokens on other blockchains. They will compete with Ethereum and restrain its growth.

Also there are some news that ICO projects are cashing out the large amount of ETH recently which even give ETH a more harder hit than other coins.
I think its about the whole market that is down at the moment. The market is in red bloodbath because of the bitcoin only. ETH however went all the way down because of the reason that you have stated here that is ICO thing and as well it is because of the net effect of the market down trend.
Will ETH come up? Yes surely it will spike above its 1200 USD rates because thats what will happen with almost all the coins that we have. ICO's will kick start one more time in the mid year so that people will start buying more ETH to invest on different project. In this period whales will play very important role and in the long run the prices will start pumping back.
I also think that everything depends on the market and the BTC. Soon the market will improve and ETN will go up again. While there is no reason to worry, I bought it, now I'm waiting. I do not yet participate in the ICO.

But likely not like that. Eth is not the only one cryptocurrency that fall. Btc also experience the same thing. It is because many bad news that spread. It reduce the demand for cryptocurrency
bigger problems are not ICO down but BITCOIN very low.... when Bitcoin has a fall every coin has a fall too.. it was everytime like this since today
It is useless to create alarmism, in the last period I have seen the number of ICO increase significantly, the price of Ethereum unfortunately affected by the current market crisis but I am confident about its recovery in the coming weeks

I currently feel what you feel and you say above almost all the bounty that I follow sell haga coins under ico price due to the price ethereum and bitcoin prices that had plummeted, but the price ethereum I make sure it will return to normal after the bitcoin price increases again I don't think btc is dead. It seems to me that this is a normal correction and soon Ethereum will grow again.
He didn't say anything about BTC here. Why did you say something like that? The subject is ETH clearly.
More ICO's are coming. I see 1205 ICO's only here: https://icobench.com There is more than this site shows.
Ethereum will not die with the IСO. In addition to the platform for programming tokens, it is also a smart contract and an area for decentralized applications. I am sure that soon they will solve the problem with numerous IСO.
I don't think btc is dead. It seems to me that this is a normal correction and soon Ethereum will grow again.
There is no cool down. Every day more and more ICO's will come and raise money. How do you follow crypto currency news? Statistically we see more ICO's now.

if Ethereum is dead it is possible that there will be another new coin created to be able to hold smart contract and can continue ICO again yes but like her Ethereum will be hard to die because they have a very good developer team.
As ICO cools down and a lot of projects are even dumping at lower prices than ICO
ico is being dumped because the whole market is falling after bitcoin now... I think we just need to wait for the btc recovery
ETH to me is not dead, it is going through market correction just like every other coin. it will bounce back when market recovers.
Eth will increase in 2 month. I believe that Eth never die like BTC. People need to be trust crypto world. Dont look red market , hope green market.
ETH is a platform for all kinds of projects. The ICOs in 2017 were one reason for the massive growth of ETH.
But I also think that the correction is almost over now and ETH will grow again. 6000USD EOY
But I also think that the correction is almost over now and ETH will grow again. 6000USD EOY
Initial coin offering is almost scam without regulations and informed people, vitalik knows it and see the bubble around tokens but he can't avoid this.
ETH is not dead, ETH is down because of the market condition and when market recovers, eth will moon and go to another all time high again, and I believe it will happen this year ending again.
ETH's price when I first bought mine was around $250 so at its current rate I think it is still a profit if you bought last year. Unfortunately that is not the case for those who invested in the recent weeks as there was an all time high rate for ETH. Let's just hope that BTC price will raise in the next coming weeks or months as its dip greatly affected all altcoins especially ETH so I think if BTC pumps up, everything follows.

I think ETH's price go down in recent times is on a down trend with Bitcoin. Beside, some bad ICO after taking ETH of investors, they sold big amount of ETH on market. This thing also make its price go down
Ethereum is a huge brand and trusted by companies and governments like venezuela. it will always be popular but there is an increasing pressure on prices not just from ICOs cashing out but competition from other arguably better alternatives. NEO is rising fast and is popular in the far east, i think it will compete on par with ETH this year.
Absolutely agree, ETH has a lot of plans on 2018, definitely if most grow up to 2k this year.

I think that if you don't know anything about that and don't make another FUD thread. It's not caused by the ico has been decreasing on its trend. As you can see there is a lot of recent icos which reached hardcap just in some seconds. In fact that all of this caused by those are overrated with EOS project and send the developer more than 200k ethereum. EOS team try to kill ether trend with dump it as low as possible. It has posted by so many people about the real reason that makes ethereum dying a little bit right now.

Maybe at some point you are right but I don't think ETH will go down below as there are still many people use ETH not only for making an ICO .

eth is still a favorite altc for everyone, just a lot of people are bored with the bad ico or scam that has happened lately. we need to be patient and I am sure that in the near future eth will explode.

ETH was on fire with all the ICO projects using their platform, there are other alternatives to ETH which only a hand full have used, I don't think ETH is finished by any means and they do have other things going on outside of being the go to platform for releasing an ICO.

People getting paid for the own information that they generate. If this is one of the top 5 societal redesigns that comes out of Ethereum, I'll be happy with it. If Facebook is replaced by a dapp as well, a lot of the money gained through selling information might be spent on using that platform, which is a bit like what's happening already: Facebook is letting us use their platform for free, in return for our data.
