so many ICOs, how a person can know in which ICO to invest?

I think you need to check the ICOs before invest. At now we have many tools to check it.
Anyway, if the ICOs have no escrow, I suggest you don't invest in, it has higher risk than the ICOs have an escrow.
P.S: Sorry for my bad english.

I have never invested in a scam ICO, surely that is the one reason I hardly believe that scams do exist, however, I heard and read that scams do exist. I would advice you to read about a certain project before you consider investing in it. Understand the concept and the idea behind the project, read the whiterpaper, and understand the team behind. Most of the ICOs I have invested in are slowly but surely delivering what their white paper assured investors to deliver. They are getting bigger and better each day, I guess that is a sign of the success of the project.

It is true that many of ICO now appears here in this industry. But not all are scams, though most of them are yes it is. Still, it can't be deny most of the successful community here became successful in investing towards ICO project campaign, and I earn big also in the ico, were I joined to participate  to their signature campaign.

All ICOs are scams. All ICOs just have a plan and roadmap, no one can guarantee its success. There's no surveillance either, so after they get money, they pretty much can do anything./

Some are good and some are not. We have to make a research on it before we invest in it. I personally don't invest in ICOs but i do get the free tokens by taking part in their campaigns. Its the best way to get their tokens without actually investing in it. As you know bitcointalk is a big community and most of the ICOs promote themselves here by running signature campaigns, bounty campaigns etc ... By promoting them we can earn their tokens as well as bitcoins. Even if the ICO scams other people we wont be in a loss because we would have got bitcoins for our work and the tokens would just have been a bonus to us Tongue .

Do your own research. How much are they raising? Do they keep a % of coins? Any vesting schedule so they can't dump coins?

A few questions to ask when looking at an ICO.

Look for ICO that their platform is unique and much in demand people. And also look at the quality of the project's founders. Many people are deceived because they are affected by the bonus given during ICO.
There are many scams Ico so do a research of their project. Understand the project, read their whitepaper, and roadmap. And ofcourse yes the quality of the project and their developers or the activity if it is really worth investing. There is a need for this as we all know there scams Ico so we have to verify if worth investing.

Some wants your all money for themselfs,some will get huge money and give you a little bit and some of them are legit.Finding the right one that can give you profit is the tricky part.Reading and completely undestanding them takes time if you do something like " this looks cool" and invest, that would be gambling not investing Cheesy

There is always risk involved. Best you can do is be diligent in your research. Read the Whitepaper. Sound good? Believe in the tech? Great. Do they have a prototype or MVP? That would be a plus. This might sound silly, but do they believe in their own tech? Do they have real world situations where the MVP is being used outside of demos? Then, of course, look at the team and who backs them. Look at professional experience, ability to bring products to market, etc. Lastly, with a pinch of salt, google the coin, search on reddit, etc.

I already invested in so many good project and get decent return for my investment in the ico, You can try to see the team and a lot of the aspects. You must know the serious developer will always try to expand the project over the world and that means just  take an example such as monetha project.

most are exit scams, except you find a developer willing to communicate intensively with the community, i would suggest you do your due deligence by researching about the token very well before investing, i have two ICOS now that are below ico price at about 50% less than what we paid for, thats bad for investors.

Ehh I always wonder, why do these people need millions and millions of dollar to code some software?
Some projects might be huge and resource intensive, but Id say most ico's are scams for people to make as much FIAT as they can.

Some are very successful, some do ok and most are outright scams. Unless you're willing to do your due diligence to tell which is with you're probably better waiting for more info and an exchange.

You must know that every altcoin that is on the market has been in ICO period too, so ICO doesnt mean scam... There are too many Scammy Icos at the moment, but you only have to be aware of that and ignore those who look like a scam one and dont invest, simple as that.
yes, there are succesfull icos at the moment, i dont know why people dont trust them when they are on ICO, and they only invest when they are at the market.
If you invest in ico period, you would take more than 3x when that coin is accepted on a exchanger.


That's not really true, in the past coins (especially PoW coins) have been just mined. ICOs started just a few years ago and only now they became the standard.
