My phone is lighting up with slack notifications from scammers. Seems like every ICO is unable to close the vulnerability.

What are your thoughts on running an ICO and simply skipping slack as a social channel? Do people even care about slack when there's bitcointalk, telegram, discord, etc.?

We had to completely remove Slack from our ICO because the phishing attempts were causing extreme damage to our investors.

In love with Bitcoin!! 💓💕

Slack is just more of a status social channels. Nothing else. Discord is more fun and has all the features of slack, without spams and irritating pay to increase limit messages!

A lot of them are (thankfully) abandoning slack for telegram. All the scam messages were getting old.

i think there is No problem if somebody created and ICO without slack
because for now there is a lot of spam on slack channel, that very disturbing

yes, I 100% agree with your point of view. Many scammers disturb me with fake links. They want me access to a fake link to get my personal data, password and stole my money. Angry

We skipped Slack for our ICO and are using Telegram. Was looking at using Ryver, but it really isn't designed outside of an organization that I can find. I can't believe the amount of hacks in slack.

They are now shifting to telegram. Slack is now full of scams looking for those innocent members. There are so many accounts in slack made specifically to victimize people. These phishing accounts are very wise in catching clueless slack members who can easily let go of their private keys after some fake introductions.

slack isn't that great. it's just popular and appears to make the team more legit in the eyes of the community so people continue to use it. imo discord or microsoft teams are much better choices.

I think it is very necessary once the communication media such as bitcointalk, slack, discord, amd etc etc, it is very important where we communicate with ico developers or fellow members, it allows us to get updated information

I feel slack is shit and telegram is better anyday,and icos will scam no matter what even if they use slack or other means of online communication. No wonder countries are banning icos,cause you can't expect governments to keep their hands tied when their own citizens are getting robbed by some random douches.

I think these ICO's already stopped using Slack because of these scammers sending messages to the participants and used Discord instead for current updates of the ICO and after the ICO as well which most participants are asking questions regarding the rewards they got from joining bounties.

Rocket Chat should be the standard for ICO from now. It's open source and there are many things you can do to increase the security of the community.

I personally do not like Slack channels of any ICO as there will be a lot of scammers and unfortunately Slack doesn't have any control for that so you end up having thousands of notifications for nothing and then turn of the notifications. so I don't think it is really useful.

I understand your concerns that why there are multiple channels such as telegram and this forum.

I think they use it because it's easy and a simple design and work well

I'almost agree with that. My phone is lightning up too. There are ICO's as of now is skipping slack on terms of their communication it's the right way, a lot of scam spammers in slack.

There's a bunch of applications that can be used to chat with the development team. They also use applications that can be downloaded to your phone as well (newer apps).
Spammers come and go.

Many ico teams are refusing slack during ico time ,that's because too many scams happened through slack in their token sale period, actually many icos use discord as a chat or only announcements channel on telegram.
In my opinion telegram is the best way

No so many ICO skip slack and moving to telegram!
By the way! Telegram also not so comfortable, not possible to do lists! All mess just in one window! Crazy thing!
