Topic: "Hard Cap and Soft Cap" - page 12. (Read 472384 times)
If the project does not collect a soft cap, then the tokens must be returned to investors. I know one project, which was originally planned to collect software cap 1000 ETH, and then realized that it would not work and reduced it to 150 ETH and recognized ICO held! It's cheating! Always see how quickly and how much money the project collects.
What is the difference of hard cap to soft cap? Did we base on this if we are going to invest in altcoins? Share your comments.
currency capitalization is totally invisible. then we will say the difference between hard topics and soft topics
It is very important that the soft cap and the hard cap are not too far apart, because that means that the price of the token may go down immediately after the sale.
These are fundraising goals. Soft cap is the lower limit, the minimal amount required for the project to be considered. If the project does not reach its soft cap, the team will return the funds. On the other hand, hard cap is the maximum amount a crowdsale will receive. 
I'm always amazing - Why do companies collect so much money? If they have enough soft cap in order to develop the project, why do they need 5-10 times more money? Is it greed?
softcap and hardcap are terms often used in the ico program, softcap means minimal fundraising for the project to run, whereas hardcap is the maximum fundraiser in the ico program, so if the fundraiser does not reach softcap, then the program will be canceled, and all the collected funds will be returned 100% to investors
Soft Cap is the minimum amount for project succession. Below that would be improbable to carry out the project successfully. Although some teams organize a second public sale phase and use the money of first ico for development, and this time, with some features revealed, they get more investments and they eventually succeed.
Hard Cap is the maximum amount of investment the project will accept during the sale. It is depending on the token amount of public sale.
This definition was helpful. Thank you. What happens when a project reaches to hard cap value? Hard Cap is the maximum amount of investment the project will accept during the sale. It is depending on the token amount of public sale.
The difference is that the soft cap is the minimum amount of the collection required by the project to launch its project, and the hard cap is the maximum amount with which they can work in full force with their project
when the term soft cap is mentioned i see it from the perspective of an amount that can be considered to embark on a project but the project may not be on its full design as the total money needed is not the soft cap but the hardcap can cover everything needed for the project
The two are the measurement in the token salle of an ICO.
But, the two have very different meaning. Softcap means that minimal achievement of the token that must be sold. If it doesn't meet the softcap, the ICO program may be canceled or extended. Hardcap is the maximum token supply from an ICO.

You are right and soft cap and hard cap are actually the limits that ICO is going to operate. Soft cap is the absolute minimum they think they need for start the project and the hard cap is the maximum money they want to menage.
The soft cap is the minimum amount ICO wants to launch their product and hard cap is the maximum amount they want to build their product/ coin I like those ICO which complete their hard cap

The soft cap is the target of the sales amount. when the soft cap has been achieved then dev raises the next bigger sales target of the soft cap that is called hard cap. when the hard cap is achieved then the token supply amount will be more and the reward for bounty participants and investors more and more.
True softcap is the minimum and hardcap is the maximum. You should be really carefully with the project that has very high hard cap. What kind of project are they, value proposition and why they need that amount of money - these things are important to consider.
Well, in general, projects set different goals for different amounts, though I do not really understand why limit the maximum amount, this is just like crowdfunding.
A lot of the ICO's that is live now is kind of worthless. They need to stop doing ICO's and just launch their project...there's nothing we can really do about that though.
If Softcap is not reached ICO can be cancelled. Hardcap is a desired sum, needed for perfect realization of the project

Soft-cap is not a huge success Price per unit is almost completely insignificant crowdsale will be considered a success. It is the minimal amount required by your project !!
Not very happy when the project in which you believe gathered only soft cap.Alas, this often happens and do not need to focus on this.Regardless of the amount collected if you are a member of the bounty Your reward will reach you only to a lesser extent.If bounty pool is limited then you do not need to worry.

Soft cap is minimum allowable project capitalization to achieve project targets while hard cap is maximum amount of money to handle with project targets and its successful development
soft cap is designed to run a working product, with minimal requirements, hard cap allows you to add new features to the project, new features for development
