I see a lot of Ico's growing like mushrooms but not much investors. Some of them don't even reach the soft cap. And just keep pushing the deadline. And some others just focus on the private investors. The thing is that a lot of coins don't see the light. Personally I think this is a good thing for the whole ecosystem. There are already more than 2000 coins and just keep adding more and this is not healthy. Some projects just add blockchain but without a real value, just another coin out there like we don't have enough Undecided

I agree the ICO should have a platform and a feature that crypto community wants and will use for them to attract investors, without it, these kinds of ICO will just fail, only ICO that will pass investors criteria that will get funding investors have had enough of so many useless coins.

I believe that the future ICO market will definitely be very formal, and most people will make reasonable investments.

Now there will be much lesser ICOs, because now they are not profitable and they are not as demanded as they were in the previous year.

Yes, now there are a lot of scam projects. Most projects will not survive even 3 years. Therefore, our task, as investors, is to find coins that will be able to implement their technologies in real life. And make money on it.

sometimes a lot of ico are not balanced with how to develop the project potentially, this can be one of the things that are detrimental because the potential for scam will be large.

That is how it is now, there are way too many icos and way too many of them are scams right now. People are beginning to figure out that most of the icos that are being put into the market right now are scams and they do not want to be any part of it which is why you see that the icos are taking in less and less money with each passing month

The icos are legit ruining the market for every one else and when the creators behind the coins decide to sell their bags and take out their money they are taking out a big amount of money from the market which is affecting the prices of the coins negatively. We do not need any more coins in the market, lord knows we already have more than enough

I seem to agree with OP wherein there are many ICO's that are in the crypto market but not all were successful. Somehow, I believe this ICO's could be more effective in a way where it should be controlled and screened properly by the admin of the forum to prevent scam and no good ICO's to infiltrate in this forum. With this, people may not be able to invest in no good and scam ICO's which could be beneficial to the people.

The number of the ICOs are getting higher day by day and out of this some ICOs were found scam projects. Because of this scam ICOs other legit ICOs are suffering to collect their softcap. Also due to bear market peoples are investing in already established coin/token as this coins are already 80% to 90% down as compared to its ATH price

Exactly. I am happy that a lot of ICOs are failing.
It is a sign that investors are wisening up and the market is maturing.
The less we have of these terrible ICOs the better.

But, we will always have shitcoins and shit projects. After all, it is so easy to make a token on one of the many smart contract platforms out there.
For example, WAVES has got to be the cheapest and easiest around, just costs 1 waves, that's it.
( maybe I will make a token and call it dumplingsushi coin).

Also, there are always the ones that are late to the game.
We have so many ICOs that are just copy and pasting what successful projects have already done.
How many gambling ICOs are there? esports betting? exchanges? privacy coins?
They are all just trying to ride the waves of bigger and better companies.

You have well compared ICOs with mushrooms. As in nature, many of them are poisonous or useless to humans. Hundreds of useless projects were created by scammers to siphon money. This undermined the credibility of the ICO, but at the same time increased the level of investor knowledge and led to their greater selectivity and vigilance.

Well, maybe OP compared with mushroom because nowadays ICO are too many and new ICO keep coming, although it have pro and contra, as long it not really disrupt cryptocurrency existence in this world, i think it is still ok.

DMs have been disabled. I am busy.

A lot of ICOs enter the market thinking their idea is stellar and will carry the project, they soon realize that the market isn't as receptive as it once was. Without a viable marketing strategy and a rock solid project concept, the vast majority will experience extreme difficulty. this is likely to get even worse as more and more shit coins attempt to launch an ICO.

ICO's current project is indeed very numerous and evolving rapidly, but there are only a few successful ICO and achieve the target. You must select a good with ICO objectives and a clear project, as well as the original TEAM and competent in their jobs.
Current ICO project not only centered on the platform of the ethereum ERC20 but there are currently some ICO project that uses the ecosystem of EOS, XEM and others.

This is because of the investors who ready to invest on any project without knowing actual value if it scammers use this ICOs are their platform to scam in millions even the projects run by the good bounty managers were scams so don't trust anyone if you are investing on ICOs if you know that project is legit and profitable just go for it.

Well, it'd have been good if current ICOs could raise enough funds because from what I have observed majority of last year ICO are dead. We have some good and competent ones now but there are no investors. So sad, anyway we hope those that are existing carry on the crypto dream.

Well I guess the popularity of ICO's had diminished because there are trust issues now because there are many ICO's that are indeed just scam and many good ones suffer the faith in getting accused as a scam and doesn't have enough supporters the time that ICO had launched its pre-sale I really think there are circumstances like that are happening now, We cannot judge certain people feeling that way because of the unavoidable truth that there are truly scam ICO out there and trust issues are a common thing about this.

I know one thing. If the project from the first sight showed himself strong, he will collect the necessary sum. There are investors who want to invest in it. I would even invest in the project myself if it had a big strong team, good expensive website design and themes. Normal and adequate managers

The ICO project can indeed be seen as a success from TEAM, website and whitepaper from the project itself, because if the team in the project is fake it is certain that the project is a scam, and we have to be careful about that, I am sure the ICO will be more and more in the future

Well I agree that keep adding new project without a real use-case is not healthy, but I think this kind of thing is also happening in the traditional business environment, many people keep establishing trash start-up. Yet, the traditional economic are still running. So, this overwhelming ICO phenomenon is just a normal thing, for me as an Investor I just need to put extra work on researching those ICOs, so I only invest in a good thing.

ICO projects are quite risky, ICO projects are now scam pretty much, so I think that if you do not have enough experience should not invest in ICO, take the word into the altcoin, so I hope to benefit Do not worry about the ICO, because the ICO is risky.

Yes, ICOs projects are very risky now. Investors have no capital to invests because their capital are engaged in another investments. Another reason is that, prices are very cheaper in the exchangers than ICOs. That why many investors think to buy after ICO's and in the exchanger instead of buying from ICOs.

Out of 100 ICOs, you can count with your fingers the real and legit ones. And with the recent news that ETH which has been collected through ICO has been sold that made the market plunge so people are just learning the lesson here and aren't buying ICOs anymore.

Not sure if the majority of them have sold their ethereum. but it's likely a lot of icos are still holding their ethereum. You can check through this link and this is a legit link dude https://sanbase-low.santiment.net/projects
That based on the data that has been collected by santiment team. I have used it to see how much ether sent to the market

No statistics but it has been said that many of them, no exact number but just think of it that they're a lot.

Wow, interesting website thanks for sharing it. But this site also share the same info like what coinmarketcap.com is giving to most of the people. I'm curious on how did the santiment team is getting their data with their site because its mostly the same as the normal crypto cap sites.

You are right that we have enough coins, but we shouldn't unwelcome a new idea on the blockchain technology. Good ICOs are being failed because of a lot of scams ICO happened this year, investor's portfolio is just decreasing every day for the bear market. After success, every ICO coin price dumping a lot, For these reasons ICOs are not being successful. But In the future, I hope this critical time will no more.

The current state of affairs in the ICO landscape begets the question whether some measure of regulatory oversight to safeguard the interests of investors would truly be a deal breaker for ICOs in the long term. It is logical and inevitable that ICOs must be regulated in one way or another. Especially to protect investors on one hand and create a sound foundation for this sort of fundraising on the other. This will sort out the bad apples from the good ones and will pave a better way for the whole crypto currency market going forward.

Yes, high potential ICOs are still an opportunity to get very high returns, x10 is possible if you invest right. These ICOs which survive the bear market can get very big ones, because its business model has already proven a bear market.
ICOs are still very exciting.

Most ICOs that survive these days are those that portray to have good and true values. I have also seen some projects list directly on exchange without lunching any ICO and some of them are performing greatly well. I think they might have thought that if they should lunch an ICO, they might not succeed, because of the bearish market. The bearish market has also made some to keep on extending the duration of the project.

The reason why most new ICOs aren't as successful in the past is because there have been too many scam ICOs in the past and basically people got burnt and decided to never buy into any ICOs again.

Even if the ICO wasn't a scam, many have lost substantial value and investors are sitting a huge losses.

The third reason is most likely due to regulations and ICOs might be considered securities and many investors around the world will wait until the situation is resolved before they invest their money.

what's the probability inside the coming months and the years that the market conditions are affected one after the other in the ICO's market and after the end of the year we are going to see low and low ICO's, but for the market as quickly as the market starts off evolved and we see one and the wrists run, so it is in all likelihood that the amount of ICO's is growing once more.
