How many bought ETH just to join an ICO ?

I would rather wait for the tokens to come to exchange to buy them directly than buying during ICO.

I only bought a few eth (less then 10) to join in some very hot ICO projects such as Kyber, generally, I would like to buy some cheap tokens just after the ICO is over since there are some panic investor or bounty hunters selling their tokens below the ICO price.

I hve bought some Ethereum, but not to participate in some ICOs. I am going to hold them.
The most times I invest in ICOs with my Bitcoins!

I bought a double digits worth of ethereum and i got a decent return worth hundreds of ethereum from ico, But it depends on your self how many the amount of ethereum that you will afford to lose in there if the project gonna fail in the future. Because this was a pure speculation. 50% Yes:50% No

I have bought ETH to get involved in an ICO, but I think people who are doing this should be very aware of the price of ETH and how it can greatly affect your investment.

I think to invest a certain amount of ethereum on a project do not do much if you still do not really understand,
and choosing a good ico is very important

Yes! That's exactly what I meant by 'Good ICOs'......I am referring to the ones that will 100% satisfy all requirements in the due diligence check list (project idea, feasibility, team, panel, distribution %, lock-in tokens, price, bounty program.....& many more)

Till now, I usually exchange part of my Eth holdings for the selected ERC-20 tokens.....but soon, I may need to add some Eth to continue investing in the good ICOs that will be out there

Each ico has a different price so you have to know the price of ETH to buy ico first.

I also think that many people bought ETH purely for participating in ICOs. And this is a reason for its rise, as well as a reason for it falling during the big ICOs when people complain that the network is clogged and can't take the volumes.
ICOs aren't really the purpose of ETH, but I do think it's the driving factor in price at the moment.

Guilty as charged, ETH by itself does not really excite me .

First 100% Liquid Stablecoin Backed by Gold

each ICO implements its own rules as well as the minimum investment limit of ICO, there is a substantial minimum investment and there are also ICO investments that allow small investments ranging from 1 ETH and others. but before investing I hope to do an analysis of the ICO that became a place to invest

i would say the main catalyst for bitcoin's rise this year was people buying bitcoin to buy ethereum to buy icos.

if there hadn't have been any icos then bitcoin would be half or less of its current price and ethereum would be 20-30 bucks.

Most of the time this is true. But there are also many investors who just directly buy ETH to join ICOs. The thing is that Bitcoin is readily available if people are using fiat to enter into crypto. That is why many passes through BTC first before entering into ETH and finally the ICOs.

I do have some amount invested in ETH. But now whenever I need to invest in ICO, then only I buy some ETH leaving the already invested amount aside. Durin the recent drop, I bought some ETH for long term investment too. But usually what drives me to buy some ETH are ICO and this is the importance of utility which bitcoin lacks.

I think we have a lot of people that bought Ethereum just to participate in an ICO. I mean we have so many tokens that are coming out of nowhere. The most is of them will be scam, but I saw a lot with some nice use cases. I also bought some ETH to play some ICOs, but I also plan to hold that ETH bag for a while. We will have a nice future Cheesy

I also bought some ETH to participate in potential ICO projects and I am sure if long-term investment in a potential ICO project will surely make a profit. In the future there will be many new ICO projects and keeping ETH right now is needed.

depending on how many coins you want to buy, each ico has varying prices, at least you prepare 1 - 10 ether to buy the desired amount and no longer need to think about gas. Every ico I just set 0.5 - 1 ether, if the potential is good I will multiply it to touch hardcap.

★Bitvest.io★ Play Plinko or Invest!

They are just making eth people richer and richer.

but so much projects are still sprouting to be an eth token.
i just don't like the fact that you need something in your account, else, the tx will just be invalid.
