Well what i think is ICO markets are mostly going scammy and thats why they are going much riskier. Investing into the cryotos world is not getting that trustworthy and is lending towards risky investments.

because more and more ICONs are emerging, there are also more scams and coins that are scam, so to invest in ICOs it's better to research them first and keep careful to choose ICO

because now there are so many ICOs that experience scam and fraud tokens, so the ICO is now a big risk if for an investment place and you also have to be careful to look for ICOs that will succeed later
Yeah so many scam ICO, that the number one problem buterin faces so before we first invest do research for no regrets in the end.Expect more scam ico to better be avoided as early as possible
Having an investment is not easy to do and have risk, risk is everywhere especially in cryptocurrency because there's no regulation to it. While in ICOs the reason why they have risk to it because most of them nowadays are not trustworthy there's only a few of them have worth. So we should be very careful of choosing ICO and invest wisely so that we can lessen to encounter a scam ICO.

Not only ICO investments but also bitcoin investments have become risky since people got engaged in ICOs.
While analysing reports, the majority of investors have moved from bitcoin to ICOs and thus we see bitcoin decreasing market cap but soon things will again change and there will be equal interest among people for bitcoin and ICOs. Supporting bitcoin will  also be effective to ICO prices
sometimes a trusted ICO can also be a scam. well, it's natural that the investment in the ICO is really risky, because when you're just an investment, then chances are you will be disappointed when the price doesn't match what was promised. So, when you invest, make sure you are really interested in the project that has been developed. because when the price isn't high, you can still use the services they offer with the coins you buy.

I have not get good luck in investing into icos and the few one that I have invested is not doing very well in the market.  Icos investments is very risky and many investors have lose significant amounts of money.  I don't think we can really succeed the ways people and investors are losing money through icos scam projects.

One has to do a lot of research before investing in ICO's, its true that there are scammers out there who are pretending to be the real deal, only for investors to lose their money after investing in the project. IMO, there have been successful ones which has deepened the pockets of investors and more upcoming ones which look promising. But if you are tired of ICO's there are still other ways to invest in blockchain, for example, consider Hooch, not your typical ICO but the concept is wowing, they are tokenizing the rewards ecosystem by giving their users Tapcoin and discounts off their drink purchases, hotel bookings and access to reservations at top restaurants. And because Hooch is already an existing platform which is embracing blockchain, it is something worth investing in.

Among the factors discussed, I pick law to be very important  and relating to the topic . Law comes first above the last factor which is risk. Risk is talking about trust and trusting the team or project but I don't even need to trust when I can legally make the team pay for their omission/act, conspiracy, embezzlement and fraud. I just sue them  Shocked
I don't have interest with ICO nor i invest with them but i just want to give my opinion that We have to take risk because you can't get success if you don't take risk.

unfortunately such investments cannot offer as much guarantee as before

Not sure they ever offered any guarantees, just that people expected the returns without any tangible evidence to support it. The market conditions in the second half of last year provided the ideal opportunity for companies to jump on board and cash in on new (greedy?) investor's naivety. They were very clever in covering possible negative outcome with an all encompassing terms and conditions. ICOs have always been risky, that's the game. Just now, investors are much more cautious, as any sensible/experienced investors have always been. So I agree with your general statement that astronomic instant returns are not generally expected anymore, although I'm sure many investors are still hoping that they will strike crypto gold.

not only in the ICO in any investment, I think the risk will always emerge, it returns to us how far we can use it, but in my modest years investing in an ICO is indeed quite risky because the price tends to be low when it is first launched, far behind the price at the time we buy, but if you are patient and keep waiting it is not impossible you will get a big profit

because the ICO is now often a scam coin and a lot of fraud too, so this year investing in many ICOs do not like it because of these factors and investors are also lazy to invest too

First of all I do not think many people who have invested in any ICO would consider law before they go into it. ICO's could have problem with law enforcement but certainly the investors wouldn't because they are just sending ethereum and there are no other connection to them unless someone really digs deep which I doubt anyone would.

On the other hand anyone who buys into any ICO already knows that its a hail mary, it is either do or die, noone really trust any ICO to be an alright thing, they invest knowing the risks and say either this money will go to zero or it will be hero.

Yes, even the project is legit and fame in the crypto if they don't have development or lack of it the project will be not successful to the eye of investors and users.

If you choose the project correctly, it can only be in the price of the token ! But if the project is a good product, team, partners, technology that is in demand by society it will bring a good profit !

Ico investments is too risky ,this is because the Ico platform is still developing and promoting the Ico , and then you are buying or putting your investments in Icos , what if the project does not success then your investment might be gone so that is the risk in the Ico investments.

Well every investment take risk not only ICO and we have to take chance in order to get success. We have to take step and manage the risk. Anything is possible in business.

if you talk about risk, I think that all areas of investment will definitely have risks, and perhaps the risks that will be faced in ICO investment activities is that when the project developed does not experience success, there are also many successful ICO programs that receive responses from investors in the Program The ICO and some of the factors that led to the ICO succeeding were among others from a development team that was experienced in running projects with several interesting programs, so I thought that in starting an ICO investment we had to examine the team that ran the ICO program.

because there are a lot of ICO scams. It makes people lose their hope about ICO investment. To what i know, ICO investment is very profitable, that is the reason why people create more fake ICOs to earn money

The simple reason why is majority of ico dumped at the first day in the market and majority of it also encountered hard recovery. I believe also that there are only a few ico that can be resilient.

ICO investments are become risky because of the irresponsible team owners and developers the government must issue a strict guides to allowed ICO in one country to protect investors from loosing money team owners must provide real documents, license, proven advisors, qualified team members and not just select from different sectors with no expertise and of course funds must be properly escrowed or using a smart contract like the DAICO system. 
That is why before investing and participating to a certain ICO, you must know the legitness of the project and most of all the team developers and the owner. I've noticed that there are more ICO than the recent years and i jumped to the conclusion that scams are everywhere, 90% of the ICO's might be a scam. If you got scammed, be sure to be wiser next time.
