A soft cap is the minimum needed for the project to proceed and a hard cap is the amount that they will accept no more than. For instance a soft cap could be 10 million and a hard cap 30 million meaning if the project does not attain 10 million it will not proceed and also if it reaches 30 million no more can be contributed.

Thanks for your information! I'm thinking, Hard Cap and Soft Cap is the upper limit and the lower limit of the capital raising process!
Last year, there were many successful ICOs! But now, it does not seem to be expected!

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.

The answer is YES. For a project to survive, it must meet its soft cap. This show that the project is viable and rewarding. Anybody who invest in that project will no cause to regret. Meeting the hard cap is a plus, an addition to the soft cap. It's like expanding your small scale into large scale.

The soft cap is like the first stage of a campaign to reach for the participant and investor, and it declares itself to be a real and vicious campaign.
Hardcap is a stage that is the latest and most difficult to reach. but when it comes to a campaign the price of their tokens or coins may increase

Hard and soft cap represents that behavior of the market of the different coins in the cryptocurrency.
Hard cap says the highest possible market value that it can reach in a curtained period of time and soft cap is the lowest market value can be landed.

A hard cap is the absolute upper limit a team will take. Whereas, a soft cap is more speculative. A soft cap is typically a lower limit, more like how much a team is aiming to raise. If a team receives donations exceeding their hard cap, the funds are immediately returned to investors.

The hard cap and the soft cap of an ICO is the target amount of every project that they wish to achieve. The soft cap is the minimum target amount. If the soft cap of an ICO was achieved then the project is already considered successful. The hard cap, on the other hand, is the main and final target amount of an ICO. Meaning if the hard cap is achieved then the ICO concludes.

In terms of investing in an ICO, considering the soft cap and hard cap is a must. You must weigh is the soft cap is realistic and attainable. The soft cap should not be too low or too high depending on the concept of the project. The hard cap should also be realistic and attainable. Too high hard cap might reflect that the project's team is greedy or something.

it is true if investment in ICO we should be able to see and choose the project well.
but it does not guarantee the great success of the project if it has touched the hard cap, because of my research many have touched hard cap but not so successful in trading.

The soft cap is the minimum amount needed to launch the project. Hardcap is the maximum amount the project will accept from investors. When the project reaches its hardcap, the ICO will end the fund raising.

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

If the ICO reached its hardcap only we can find the tokens on the exchange very soon. Projects reaching softcap is normally easy for them dude. When the team is good and project idea is better we can see the token value reaching the good value.

Maximum amount of hardcap is reached means they can be the luckiest team to get the more profit.

what my understanding is that soft cap is the minimum amount required for the project to make some MVP and hardcap is the total amount that they need for the long run of the company.

when only soft cap or hard cap is achieved in an ICO they will continue to pursue the idea of the project but it would be great if the hard cap is achieved because it will invite many investors who want to buy the coins in exchange.

The two are very important and they influence the success of an ICO. Softcap presents that the ICO is a success, but it is the minimum standard of the success. But hardcap, is the maximum token that is bought during the ICO? It represents that hardcap will determine that the ICO is very valuable and promising.

Softcap is minimum money needed to continue the projects. Hardcap is maximum number of tokens released in the market. If the ICOs token sale reach soft-cap, the project can be very potential. But you should know that reaching softcap is not the factor to determine the success of the project. A successful project depends a lot on other things like team spirit, strategy, ...

Every development project has a plan of development at the stages specified in their roadmap and whitepaper. Based on that, they calculate and offer softcap and hardcap for calling investors. Softcap is the minimum limit that a project can deploy and build (including legal entities or the establishment of a company / organization to operate). The hardcap is the maximum limit that the project will take to complete the entire construction and development process (including all aspects of partner search, promotion, marketing in other continents).

for the soft cap is a minimal achievement for the target, while the hard cap achievement is the largest of the target. the medallion between the two very clear. so to invest in an Altcoin will be very interesting when based on this achievement. it is useful to see how much profit we can achieve and be able to pass from our estimates.

I believe hard cap can be defined as the maximum amount a crowdsale will receive. Most projects set a very high cap that is unlikely to happen. Only very famous projects like have reached its hard cap. And a soft cap is the amount received at which your crowdsale will be considered a success. It is the minimal amount required by your project. If you do not reach that amount during the ICO then you will allow the investors to retire their apport.

And expect a huge bonus when you invested on that ICO or participated in its bounties. Campaigns usually are finished early also whenever the ICO bounty campaign reaches its desired hardcap.
