Topic: How much do you invest in an ICO? - page 7. (Read 2447 times)
Every investment in this cryptoworld are high risk especially to ico project theres no assurance of a good return, I only invest what I can afford to lose and I also diversify my investment into two or three ico project to avoid losing huge money dont invest to high promissing project that have no good developer inside.
I normally invest a moderate amount even if I think is going to be great because my experience tells me that there are too many things that can go wrong.
playing safe than being sorry if you missed out and played by the whales, oh well that's a good attitude when dealing with something that you still not comfortable with, but in time you will be able to go all in as you believe that investing is profitable for a project that will bring real usage, things will bedifferent when you are already sure about your investment.
I am going to invest 10 NEO in SPOTCOIN. It is a great ICO that has an already existing business and runs on the NEO chain. It looks a very amazing project!

I believe that every invests so much, how many can afford . and if the project is a lot of promises that naturally invest more !
Is anyone diversify in a strategic way? i.e. trying to build a portfolio of X companies over a year. Or do you take a more opportunistic approach of investing when and where you come across a good project?
I know that the answer depends on the project, how much you believe in it, and how much you have to spend.
But I am looking for data about an average ICO investor... are people investing tiny amount in as many projects? or more sizeable amounts?
For example, lets take a $40m ICO, what do you think the average investor puts? $10? $100? $1000? 5,000? more?
Edit: many of the answers were, whether one should invest in an ICO at all. My question was intended to understand more specifically what's the average person place nowadays in an ICO, IF they participate. I am interested in data, about a typical average ICO investment, not whether anyone should or shouldn't invest in an ICO.
"Don't invest more than you can afford to lose" is really good advice but for the new, inexperienced people, is very hard to make smart decision regarding any investment.

Risky business to invest big amount of money in ICO, especially in ICO that you don't sure about, at least 90% sure. 1000$ is fine amount of money
I don't think investing on an ICO is a wise thing as of the moment. Most ICO are failing and not giving back to the Investors what is as promised to them. ICO is risky and the potential for losing money is high. I would suggest you to just spend fund to a worthy kind project. Do a lot of reading before giving in. As for me, I cannot afford to lose money on an ICO so I no longer join one but instead buy a coin that is already introduced on exchanges.
There is no exact amount for you to invest with yhe choice is yours you can invest like 50$ -100$ depends on you because is just a risk game you might lose or gain.
When I make a decision how much I should invest in project I don't look on project's capitalization. It doesn't matter for me 
The biggest one was 3 eth once, but I prefer to invest 1.5 eth in average. If coin makes x2 additional 1.5 eth for me is enough

I really want to invest in ICO and nearly every ICO is very tempting to invest as the product and its description looks very good but the only fear that stops me from doing so is the fear of getting scammed by the company. These many good projects run away with the funds of there investors and such news has created a situation of panic among newbies who want to invest in ICO's. But if there is very attracting project then I will surely invest small amount of money in the project.
My usual investment in Ico is about 0.5 - 1 Etherium ,sometimes there is a limit of minimum amount ,so I have to send sometimes 1 etherium or more.
But before investing my money I do a strict research of the project and its team,I dont wanna get scammed.

I currently just little in ICOs after what some ICOs did to me in 2017, some just did exit scam while others turned shit coins after the start of the bearish market.
Well so far I invest around $300 for an ICO and also it really depends on its performance.If the ICO has a good performance I can invest more but like other people said that it is still risky thd reason why you must only invest what you can afford to lose.

And what about the data of investors?is this something to do with your daily living?because your being specific in the sense that seems like your affected about the investments
like pro said, invest what you can afford to lose. so in the meantime it needs just like 100$ to know and to learn how market is going on. read and look for the coin that has a strong potential in the coming years. because you've learn something for trading you can start scalping for your observation purposes.
The minimum investment for me n an ICO that I consider to be a quality ICO would be $1000! I can invest more depending on the performance of such ICO in meeting their deadline and creating a viable business model that can sustain and bring profit for such ICO in the future!

I invested on some ICOs this year, for example invest about 1.3 ETH on quark and it reached 18x after ICO and i sold out on 15.5x also i invested on phantasma and other ICOs. all of my investment reach about 10ETH in current year.
I usually invest a small amount from 100 to 200 dollars, if a popular project such as eos I can and 500 dollars.
