Investment in projects continues. It's good. I do not think that statistics is lying to us. If the investment in projects continues, we will soon see the recovery of the market.

These figures show people are still taking part in ICOs. I wish the team members channel finds to project development and not selfish interest like many have been doing. Only a few reputable team members will do this in real life, most talk about project development only on whitepaper (road map).

"Initial coin offerings (ICOs) completed in the first half of January have raised around $160 million. The figure was provided in a report by ICO rating service ICObench shared with Cointelegraph on Jan. 18.

ICOs completed by Jan. 15 have managed to raise about 33 percent of the combined amount raised in the previous month of December. Half of that sum was secured by just one project, the report notes.

According to ICObench, the number of fundraisers that are set to take place in January is more than 150, a figure similar to the past seven months, excluding December." - Read more in Cointelegraph. https://cointelegraph.com/news/icos-raised-160-million-in-first-half-of-january-report-says

I don't invest in ICOs as well as all friends of mine for a year already. Most probable it's fake numbers just like fake volume out there. There is no sense to invest in ICOs now due to a bear market, because of the probability to win is very small and every projects is dumped below the ICO price once it's getting listed at the first exchange.

This could be a good signal even if I still believe that ICO market has to solve its own problems before something will change... too many scams and poor projects are the main cause of this decline.

People are not giving up on ICO's just yet. I mean there are still some ICO's who are not promising any new features or amazing new innovations to blockchain or anything but instead keep focusing on certain sectors and industries.

There are coins about advertisements and there are coins about gambling and coins about gaming and many other stuff, which means there are a lot of new coins that are getting funds not because they are trusted with how well the coin is but they are funded because people believe that coin could disrupt a certain market and get a share of it which would make the coin valuable. It is a different approach and not like what it was last year but thanks to this approach ICO's are getting some funding instead of none and they are alienating themselves from the horrible ICO's of last year.

2019 will be a good year for ICOs and right now many good project and i think investor will keep invest in new ICOs. But many ICOs fails their target and i think its natural because market condition not too good. Crypto transaction in market still not recover because market cap value still below $200billion but i think 2019 will be a good year

Bitcoin is the currency of this age
This is a proof that the cryptocurrency space is still alive, with $160 million raised in ICO, it is a positve sign that 2019 bull  run is guarantee, but I feel the bull run will still not be at the rate we have it in 2017/ early 2018.

It is not impossible to gather such amount even at bear mearket.
It is not about the season in the market to see in the ICO, it is the team and their project to look.
Why we need to see the market to have an ICO? if the project is good that can deliver better world? it is the exchange to delay not the ICO.

I think its fake. Looks like a well fabricated article. I'm not saying ICO market is completely dead but raising big amounts like $160 million in just half a month is non sense at this market condition. Or some ICOs gave fake collection report to the ICO bench. Can anyone name a single ICO which raised funds in 1st half of January?

These figures seems unreal to me .. even during the 'bearest' time in the market and negative sentiment people invest such enormous sums into ICO (often without a working product, proper management team etc.).

Guys, this is really cool.Where are those pessimists who are in complete despondency and talk about the death of the ICO?I'm just sure that in February this amount will be even greater.good projects will always find their investors. This is an irrefutable fact.

On the one hand, the sum's not so big for the whole market, especially against the backdrop of the economic situation. On the other hand, it's surprising that there're still investors in such a bad market, and they invest much! A very interesting article and analytics

Which such great funds comes out a great opportunity for them to create the best project in the market. Well, I didn't see much the benefits of ICO nowadays, and the importance of it as it develop the world.

I think together with adoption, regulation and confidence building steps like more secure and safe wallets and exchanges slowly crypto market will recover and be back on track similarly icos will also see good times again with the market.

This is expected and I do not see anything surprising. People need guarantees that they are funding a promising project, and not fraudsters. I think this is not a detailed report, since private sales are not counted here.

This is truly evident of some  projects that I have seen.
Most of those raising funds are genuine and trusted projects. One of the projects is Hara.
This paticular project was able to reach its hardcap within 48 hrs of lunch. This is amazing right?
It is long I have personal seen such happened.

$160mm is a lot more than I would have expected. When I was working with an ICO in September, I remember the amount raised by the first half was something abyssmal, like $18mm. Of course a lot of it comes down to the individual projects that succeed to raise funds, but I think this is an indication that money is once again entering the space. Is 2019 our year?

$160 Million is not a small amount in bear market, look like people start to investing in ICO again and maybe everything will back to normal in 2019, hope more legal and potential project will coming out and don't want scam project anymore.

When the market is so depressed, 160 million, I think, is a huge investment. Obviously it is a development that gave me hope for the future.

This shows that ICO is gradually returning in 2019. In January alone, they raised $ 160 million, which is an excellent one, surely in the coming months ICO will grow stronger.
