Topic: I do not believe ico anymore - page 36. (Read 5426 times)

didnt get in on tbar, but i do believe innocent until proven guilty. got heaps invested in howdoo though as i do believe we need something fresh in the world of social media.
   contract vault looks very promising  

Maybe you just bought some shitcoins and bought at a bad time.  In the last few months, nearly all the ico drop the price below the ico price. Only a little icos get returns to investors.

So you should invest the ico you trust, and pay more attention on that.

I haven't done many yet. Pretty new to the ico game, but problem is, the whitepapers are great adverts and then you get the product home and it doesn't do what they promised. So many screw ups too. Token distribution delayed. Exchange problems. Don't know anything about Bitclave, but I've heard the name. Like I said, I'm looking at Contract Vault too. It's all lawyers in Switzerland, so probably not a scam. Website looks pretty pro. 10x would be bloody great.

I reckon the days of 100x are behind us now. I guess I got into crypto too late.

You just need to find a good one, for example LYMPO ICO was more than successful, btw you can still buy tokens, they are underpriced

Regulation on the one hand is good, but it seems to me that if they start to regulate the ICO projects, they will take on investors, and then we will have to pay some interest or get a license for investment. Although there is always a way out of the situation ...

Since i started crypto my batting avg with icos are about 10%. When it hit i do clear x10 easy sometimes. Been burned with bitclave for exemple but now im getting into a new one i can see do x10 called Contract Vault.

Upward and foward i guess.

A lot of people are now being disrupted in ICO and in crypto-currencies, because they have patience and they do not want to wait for anything and want to get everything right now, I think that this will not exactly happen, because crypto-currencies are a very risky long-term occupation.

Have you had any bad ones recently? Seems like bear season has messed a lot up.

investment in ICO with negative characteristics in General should be avoided. Of course, sometimes there are factors that prevail even over this. For example, earlier projects that can make ICO attractive in terms of speculation. Then you won't have any problems.

i totally agree with you GMT68. Ups and downs

Agree with a few here that team is essential, but don't forget that TBAR were totally public and turned out to be criminals.

Add to team the need that the ico fulfills. Is it something that is necessary or will make the world a better place? Do people want what it does?

Then go into metrics. Is there too much coin supply?

But even after all this....

I went in pretty hard with Invacio. Massive idea and great team. Small supply. Price crashed due to factors outside control of the project. I still believe in it and will continue hodling for the long term, but it's a mess when everything looked so good.

Got into Howdoo on presale, and with the state of facebook's reputation, I reckon that will go well. Team and hype is good for this one. Fingers crossed.

The new one I'm checking out at the moment is Contract Vault. It's run by lawyers, so I reckon they know the repercussions of any fraud. It also fulfills a need that I hadn't thought of - contracts, buying and selling templates and customs. Token is necessary for the platform, but everything gets converted automatically from fiat, so for non-crypto users, it's no big deal. Thinking of investing a little there. Looks good to me.

Ultimately, everything can look good, but hey ... this is crypto. You never know which will crash and burn, even if everything looks great.

Of course you can lose it, but if you read whitepapers properly, of you look closely at the website or talk to people in  ommunity you can protect yourself

that is so sad... I know a lot of ICOs are bad ones, they only take your time and money and do not give anything in return, but not all of them are so

As with all investments, there is always the risk that you can lose it all. I would suggest that you do better research before you invest as there are plenty of scam ICOs out there, and of course, only invest with what you are prepared / can afford to lose.

If you can not invest in these projects, then you can find something less risky. Invest in the top 10 alternative coins and this is a win-win option.

Before you can invest in anything, you need to carefully understand this or that sphere. There are many projects in which you can earn. In general, I would like that the authorities at least somehow began to regulate the ICO, that would avoid deception.

Yes, read about other ICOs, there are definitely some good ones, do not be disappointed forever. Just relax and get yourself together

It is very hard for some people distinguish one from another and I think that it is okay to feel fooled after you lost your money

I am so sorry that you had to face a scam ICO. Well, if you feel so - do not with it any more or try another one, more trustworthy

do not believe the reviews and assurances of "ordinary people", because they may be directly interested to drag you into the pyramid. Invest in technology, not bubbles.
