The minimum value is the amount of money that is needed to develop the project. By its value, you can compare this project with analogs and assess how much this amount of money is real. The maximum value is the money necessary to attract additional employees, advertising, connections. If the project does not have a soft cap or hard cap, it means only one thing - the developers don't know what they want.

I've met a few high-rated projects that didn't have a Soft Cap listed. What would that mean? Is it worth it to pay attention?

Most times, hardcap and softcap are not the main factors that determine the success of a project. Whenever i want to invest into any ICO, my evaluation will be based mainly on the project team and the whitepaper. These two will determine the extent to which the project will go. Hardcap is the maximum sales target of an ICO,while softcap is the minimum sales target of that ICO. Although, these two can also determine how far the project will go.

Yes of course! We should consider the hardcap and softcap before investing in altcoin. It should be verified that will the amount raised will be enough to promote the project.

Hardcap is the maximum amount that can be raised by a particular project during their ICO while softcap is the minimum amount that could be able to finance the project.

hard cap to soft cap are important for ICO, the team calculates how much minimum is needed to start the development of the project, and maximum funds for the full implementation and release of the finished product.

Soft cap is a minimum money to get for the project and the hard cap is the maximum to get that very big money. If the bounty reach the soft cap and hard cap will be successful and worth the trust of the community.

Both of these caps are just to make people are attracted toward coming forward to invest with ICOs. They are like some milestone in terms of how much capital so far made. If some people are waiting till the soft cap achieved, then definitely they will start investing once devs announce soft cap is done. Because achieving soft cap must be their way of identifying a good potential ICO.

Hard cap must be the end of ICO, most of the times still there are devs to continue the ICO by altering hard cap to next big levels. Anyway these are some of explicit criteria we need to consider to measure how successful an ICO and not definitely a measurements for potential of ICOs.

I would not focus on companies that want to build a very small softcap. For example, the company GYM which starts with a minimum collection of 10 ETH, and the maximum to infinity. I believe that such projects simply can not be started. After all, even a shortage of wages for employees to develop a platform.

soft cap is the amount of minimum investor funds collected and hard hats is the maximum amount of investor funds, the funds will be used to develop the project ideas and run their plan according to the roadmap.
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.

When ICO calendar writes "Goal"  what does it mean? Softcap or Hardcap?
It depends on campaign. Sometimes it can be not softcap, nor hardcap, but goal of the current stage of token sale for example.

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.

Soft cap is the minimum amount funding that the IcO was aiming it means if the Ico reach that soft cap sale we can already say that they are supposed to begin their project with that amount and the hard cap or maximum funding is for more expenses to the project. Some icos that hits the hardcap is a proof that an ico is too good to invest and there is a lot of expectations from it.

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.
yes, we should base on this to decide investment if you know nothing or don't understand about these industry so you can follow other.
people only invest on the good one, so if a project can reach hardcap you can put some if still have chance.

Soft cap is the minimum amount of project needed to be able to execute the plan according to the roadmap. Having a hard cap means the project has successfully completed its ICO campaign. Hardcap also shows the scale of the project. If the project has a small hard cap then the return on investment will likely be higher. I like the project with Hardcap from 10 million $ - 20 million $.

Soft Cap is the minimum amount needed for the project to launch. hard cap is the maximum amount that the project can handle. When Hard cap is reached, the token sale ends.

Hard Cap and Soft Cap are extremely important in determining whether to invest in an ICO or not.

Ico's that have no soft cap because they are a business that is already successful or have secured private funding is a good sign.

Also, low hard caps are good too because it will create more demand for the token.

The biggest red flag for an ICO is if the hard cap is really high.  Anything that is 30 million or above is high.  I know that it is normal for icos to have 30 million hardcaps, but that is still ridiculously high.
Last year, there were icos that were trying to collect 50 to 70 million dollars...thats crazy!

In the normal startup world, even in silicon valley, tech startups receiving 1 to 5 million dollars in funding was considered amazing and enough to operate the business for over a year.  So why is it that these companies need 30 million dollars?

But, thankfully, since the last three months, there have been more and more icos that have been lowering their hard caps.

Low hardcap + hype = quick profit.

As interest and money volume increase in crypto currency units, ico numbers also increase. these icolar have the softcap and hardcap values they set at the time of sale. Those who reach hardcap value are successful.
