I think that they are the same as they were before. To my mind, you need to check the reliability of ICO regularly to know whether you can rely on it or it is just another scam

I think some of the project ico also ended well, indeed not much since most end tragically. There's even a successful but all looks devastated at the market. This becomes the same, there is no project or work performed.

ICOs have been very bad this year. It has been so so ugly for many existing projects/coins as well as newbies and startups. They struggle to get even soft cap and after that they also suffer a huge fate of dying when they list on exchanges. We hope better days come ahead.

Only few projects are able to list on exchange above there ICO price, almost every project listing price is lower than the ICO price, this made investor to be afraid, the market is stable down this year

I only invested two projects this year, and last year I invested more actively. Today I invested in the Scavo project, we'll see Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Not so bad, except for the scam projects that we have littered all over the place, I think that Icos have been doing so well for themselves, even with the recent market trends that have not exactly been favorable. We see that s good number of them are still striving hard to make a good name for themselves, and have their stance in the market, and they are trying at that.

I agree, if not for the countless scam projects that are out there, the ICOs would have being doing very well but since people are now very wary of scam icos they are less inclined to invest in new coins and the icos are taking a bit of a hit for it. If we consider the fact that we are presently in a bull market then it goes to show that the icos are doing well given the circumstances.

Only in the last 3 months, ICO funding dropped by almost 50%. No wonder that Ethereum price dropped this much, especially after all the scam ICOs dumping their raised ETH.

News headline says "76% of This Year’s ICOs Are Already Under Water"  and most of these are ICOs launched at the first quarter of this year.
If you’re going to invest in an ICO, then, the message is clear: be selective, choose blockchain projects over anything else and make sure you get into the pre-sale. Otherwise, you’ll be wasting your time and your ethereum.

Watch out folks!  Grin

In fact, I believe that virtually every year the situation in the ICO market is approximately the same. Every year there are absolutely different ICOs. Among them, a high proportion of fraudsters and failures. But there are also good projects that can bring profit to their investors with the right choice, personally I continue to invest in this direction now.

if I think that this year's ICO is pretty bad, because there are many ICOs that are scam and fraud and the token prices are always low. so for the coming year hopefully ICO is better than years...

Yes i think i may agree with that. In fact, last year was a blast.
The problem this year is that we are experiencing obvious drought in ICO.
Maybe because investments this year dropped compare last year or maybe this is just ordinary. We'll never know until we get to the last month of 2018. Until then, let's just hope its not too late to invest in an ICO and more importantly let's remain calm and pray it will somehow change for the better.

I think the reason we're experiencing drop in the investments on ICO's is because (well, I think there are lots of reasons but this, in my own opinion, would be the major one) of the reputation of the ICO's recently being scam.

I absolutely agree with this statement. Now you can visually notice the poor condition of most of the ICO's on the market. Many of them are scammers, while others offer frankly weak products. Although, if you want, you can still find promising and useful projects for society, you just need to work very hard for a suitable choice.

This year, the situation with the ICO is very bad, because now the falling market and so many people have lost a lot of money, so now you need to be very patient with the patience to finally wait for the growth of the crypto-currency market.
I agree with you in part where you say that situation with ICOs is very bad. Most of ICOs did not fulfill our investment goals, and in most cases it is better to invest after ICO.
In my opinion, if you want use tokens which are you buying in ICO phase, than it is good option, but if you are buying for reselling afterwards it is not good idea.

Yes, ICOs are having tough time raising money this year due to market sentiment. Some ICOs pause their token sale until this bear market changes to bull market.

The crypto market that has affected the condition of the ico project is bad this year. many enthusiasts are not sure to invest in the ICO project this year due to the decline in the crypto market.

I think we should take current market conditions into account as well. With the whole market severely dipping, it is no surprise that a lot of ICOs are struggling/failing.

Which is also why ICO projects with working products are a much safer bet at the moment.

Finally, like any financial market, there are ups and downs, and there is nothing to do about it.

Take care and good luck to everyone Wink

Yes, I do not remember the period when there were so many scammers and failures in the ICO market. This year, investors really lost record amounts of money when working with selected ICO. Although I continue to try to find successful projects. This year joined the three ICOs, based on their good rating and the availability of a fully finished product.

Yes, I exactly feel the same way. We are definitely in an ICO bubble and most of the whitepaper only bases token sales are only conducted to collect money, not to deliver a real product.
