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.
January 25, 2019, 09:43:36 AM
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.
January 25, 2019, 09:35:51 AM
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
January 25, 2019, 07:18:26 AM
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.
January 25, 2019, 04:53:21 AM
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? 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.

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.).
January 24, 2019, 03:01:17 PM
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
January 24, 2019, 12:10:44 AM
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.
January 23, 2019, 02:58:59 PM
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.
January 23, 2019, 02:54:31 PM
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.
January 23, 2019, 02:48:07 PM
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?
January 23, 2019, 09:56:03 AM
$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.
January 23, 2019, 09:48:09 AM
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.

This suggests that the ICO market is not dead. Even with such a bad market, decent projects are launched that interest investors.
January 23, 2019, 09:25:01 AM
This is very good, and most importantly means that even against the background of a bad market, ICO projects can still continue to collect the necessary amounts!
January 22, 2019, 08:57:22 PM
I still have high hopes on the ico and I am well amazed by the result of the ICO lately that despite the bad market, still they accumulate good result on their token sales. It is a good sign that even we are experiencing bad market, still good projects prevails.
January 22, 2019, 04:25:17 AM
Yes, this figure is not so big and it is very sad. This is due to the fact that people no longer trust the ICO, including me. We need to do something already, so that the fraudsters become smaller and then people will start to invest in the ICO again.
January 21, 2019, 10:36:44 PM
Although the crypto mark is currently not the best, they still managed to earn 160$ million with icos and that impresses me a lot. I did not think that is possible at the moment. Apparently the ico market is not dead.

there is an interesting thing that I saw in that article, in canada there is 1 ico that reaches 80 million dollars and estonia has 3 ico which reaches 52 million dollars. where can I see a list of ico names in the article?

Even at the poor market conditions it's unbelievable that initial coin offering can raise that so much amount at the first half of January that's to sat the year 2019 might be a fruitful one
Yeah, I agree it's really impressive to see some ICO still making good amounts on investments even at this worsening market conditions. Investors are getting smarter as they put their money on the project that will likely be a success, unlike in 2017 and early 2018 wherein they don't care, as long as they know they can make a lot of money out of the project they will invest however the bear market teaches us a good lessons. January 21, 2019, 09:30:31 PM
All the people have some knowledge about ICO projects. Then they are not going to invest scam and useless ICO projects. The scammers have taken a part of this ICOs to scam like a boss. With the market condition, most ICOs have not given a good return on investment to the investors. The market condition is not the only reason for it. Most ICO projects are cheating right now. My personal opinion is doing your own research before investing in ICO projects.
January 21, 2019, 07:35:20 PM
Sorry to say, I stopped believing reports from ICObench! A lot of fake raised ICOs are listed there and I asked to resolve an issue about a so-called STO Project who's hardcap is 550 Million USD and they raised 66 Million USD and no one talks about them and ICObench bot gave them 5 rating out of 5. Could you please mention which ICOs are live now and making 160 Million USD in these 20 days of January?
January 21, 2019, 07:31:21 PM
It is not a good sign that it was raised only $160 million in the first half of January. That period was affected by the holidays
but we should compare it to the last year`s figures and they are significantly lower.

It's amazing that there are still innocents investing in repeat projects that just change the WP and speak some pretty words! If someone wants to invest ICO look for projects that were launched at 2, 3 anosa ago! We are at a time that most of these projects need to deliver something, for example, Bancor, Wings, Decent, Iconomi, Lisk, Waves and etc. January 21, 2019, 12:38:21 PM
it's really unbelievable with the bear market right now that ICO combined still manage to raise that amount, i read the article and amazed with just ICO from canada combined it raised $80 million, cause not many project was successfully reach their softcap this month due to the market condition and it's losing popularity due to many scam ICO and mostly got their price dumped when hit exchange.
January 21, 2019, 10:37:09 AM
Every ICO topic you post gets moved to altcoins. How about you stop being completely ignorant and post this in the right place to begin with? If it's not about Bitcoin, it doesn't go in the Bitcoin Discussion board.
//EDIT: Kudos to the mod for a swift move.

It looks like people don't want to fund those scams anymore
I think report doesn't include private sales
It is the best way for legal project to raise funds
I know two really good projects what was able to collect funds through private sales
I think that people have learned and will not invest in most of ico even price of crypto will rise
