Understanding Hard cap and Soft cap, hard cap is the maximum limit of an ICO while the soft cap is the minimum limit of an ICO, if a project has reached its soft course participants will get paid but if it has not reached the soft cap to reach the hard cap it is quite difficult

Well I really agree with that because most of ICO's reached softcap has been successful even if they did not reach hardcap on their main stage sale but still the projects continues. Most of ICOs reached softcap they are sure payer on their bounty programs.

Soft cap is the lower limit, the minimum amount required for the project is considered. if they do not reach their soft hat then the project will be canceled and the amount of investment will be returned back to their investors. hard cap is an amount sufficient for full implementation of the project.

Can u name the project...?

softcap is the minimum capital of fund requirement that the project may run, but there are no guarantee that every ICO may hit its softcap. then the money of the investors who invested on that project will return by the said ICO and project will shut down. coins that are shared on the community will going to be an shitcoins. hardcap is refer to the maximum capital of fund that the project needed to run the said project. but its really difficult for every ICO to reach there hardcap especially if the team are not very active pushing there product to the investors. but some ICO's reach there hardcap because of the products that are very useful, promising project and has an very active team members working hard to gain more investors to there project. thats the difference between softcap and hardcap.

Hard cap and soft both is the fund rising target. hard cap is the maximum amount of fund rising and soft cap is the  minimum amount of fund collection . if any new company reached hard cap then its called the good project becuase its reach the maximum target .

What is the ideal percentage difference between soft cap and hard cap for a good ICO?

Softcap is lowest for the project to work. Hardcap is highest to rising in project and that money will use for other purposes that the project need. If softcap doesn't reach, money will return investor and project will stop.

"Hard Cap and Soft Cap":
- ICO Hard Cap
An ICO Hard Cap refers to the maximum capital amount that it is aiming to accumulate. Many crypto projects raise the limit very high during the initial phases of its launch. These hard caps are difficult to reach. Nonetheless, it all depends on the popularity of the ICO. If it has been rightly promoted, it can reach the target easily. Hard cap refers to the maximum fund required to set up the business. Projects generally stop accepting bonus funds once the hard cap has been reached.
As and when an ICO reaches the hard cap much before the set time limit, the token sale will eventually come to an end. Further, the ICO tokens will be circulated beforehand. If a project does not return the money raised over the ICO hard cap, it is considered a red signal for stakeholders and this is something that one should bear in mind. When it comes to Initial Coin Offering, hard caps are an important factor that determines its future worth. The demand and supply of these coins also determines the worth of ICOs.
- ICO Soft Cap
Soft Cap refers to the minimum amount of capital raised that will determine the success of the crowdsale and will help the venture to progress forward as intended. Most achieve the ICO soft cap target since Initial Coin Offering is a great way to start a new venture and raise funds.
There is no guarantee that this soft cap will be reached as it is mostly hypothetical. If an aspiring project fails to reach the ICO soft cap, then it will be closed down and all the money will be returned to the ICO investors. However, most projects proceed with their business plan irrespective of the fact whether the set soft cap has been achieved or not. Investors need to make sure that the hard cap and the soft cap are grounded on real plans and numbers. Transparency is a must when it comes to gaining the trust of the community.

Yes, Hard Cap and Soft Cap are important in analyzing the Token Metric whether the coin has a lot of potential in terms of ROI. For example, investing in a dApp start-up that has a higher Hardcap like 50Million$ or more are not advisable to invest. why? Because the potential holder (token user) of that is limited compare to Blockchain start-up like Ethereum and NEO.

If the project collects a soft cap, it means that the project will already take place and will develop. If the project collects a hard cap, it means that the project is fine and there is enough money to complete the project. Plus bounty hunters will get more reward.

Soft cap is the minimum need to reach of one ICO sales to classify as a successfull project. Have funds to continue the developement of the product. Expenses will not be a problem like activity going somewhere  to have a transaction. While hard cap is the bright future for a project. 100% fund to reach their total plan for the project. Some project pointing out what going on in different amount of money. Hard cap means all plan will be sure happen.

I think with soft CAP achieved, this makes the project will continue to the next stage.CAP software is achieved, of course, the team will be more hard-hitting and if this is achieved

Softcap is the term use to for bounty hunters , Meaning they are safe already while hardcap is for everyone , Hardcap means its sold out during ico or crowdsale etc.

Soft cap is the actual amount an ICO needs for the project. While hard cap is the total ICO make from the project

That details are enough to make every individual understand the concept of ICOs in raising their funds through the token sale which is happenning in the middle of the campaign period to the  end of the ICO sale, so if the soft cap will be heat then it is partly successful and then jf the hard cap will be reach then that ICO project sees a very successful launched of that ICO project.

Yes it can rate how success the project, hard cap and soft both is the fund rising target. hard cap is the maximum amount of fund rising and soft cap is the  minimum amount of fund collection . if any new company reached hard cap then its called the good project becuase its reach the maximum target .

I think that Hard Cap and Soft Cap play a big role. If the project can not collect the Soft Cap, then it means that the interest in the project is very small or completely absent. This tells us that such a project will not be successful. As for Hard Cap, if the project reaches this level, it means that the interest of investors and users to the project is good. But there is also a bad side, the Admins can simply take the money and disappear with them. But in any case, these indicators greatly influence the outcome of the projects.

All right. This is what I need. Thanks for the answer.
A few last month a go, I joined ATFS ICO bounty. They did not reached soft cap. But the team not return the funds as you said. They want to continue the project and already listed on coinexchange.

Usually a soft cap is just a very small amount but we investors like the ICO to be successful by reaching its hard cap because there is a bigger
chance of success rate and of course as an investor we want a faster return of our investment so we can again invest it to other ICOs.
