I fully agree with you . In 2017, many projects gave x2 x 4 x 5, etc . This year, this is extremely rare
Not so rare. But yes to find a good project I spent much more time now than in 2017. It's so many scams and an unprofessional team that I'm sometimes surprised. That's why so difficult in 2018 not because of KYC

Then you have probably been investing in the wrong ICOs. You look at iost token. Its ICO price was only 0.01 while it reached the peak of 0.07 not too long ago. Even right now its current price is 0.041.
The point is that we really have to trust the team in whom we are investing. These coins are not mere investments but a contribution to the community. These coins should be seen for their utility too and not just as a piece of investment.
Huge projects are being developed with our investments.

this is my own opinion but it may help others.
I have found that all the ICOs i have invested in have launched at almost the ICO price but in a few days dipped below the ICO prices by half or 5X for some.
With this i have discovered its better not to invest in an ICO but wait for the launch and the DIP to buy it at the corrected prices made by market forces.
Its just too hard to tell the real or recommended value of a token in an ICO these days.
Hope this helps to the new investors thinking of ICOs

You should also keep in mind that the whole cryptocurrency market is in DIP since the beginning of this year. Bitcoin prices are less than half of all time high $19K in December last year. This could be probably the main cause of ICO's are getting the unexpected dip.
I am in agreement with you. Alot of other factors too
Looks like the ICOs are getting better although some are getting worse.
I think they are same but only thing is now KYC part is coming in more and more ICO's. Also ow we have to invest too carefully because too many good looking projects turn out in scam projects.
Very well said. Just removing US and China out of ICO is also removing the 80% of possible investors that could easily hit the hardcap of any good ICO projects in less than their expected end date.
icos are more regulated now and now viable company are starting the coins now they are good technology coins are coming in the market regulators are watching the market so we can see good outstanding coins in the coming future
More and more ICO projects are being formed in 2018 but most of them, according to my assessment, are unrealistic and unlucky. Therefore, choosing ICO projects for investment during this time is quite difficult and the returns from ICO investment are not as great as at the end of 2017.

ico not all have decreased in price at the time of release, but many ico also price up to 100% of ico price after release, in ico investment always get 15% bonus up to 40%, it is very profitable, i have suggestion in ico investment, look ico under the price of $ 0.01 I can be sure you will make a big profit in the time of coin release I have found that all the ICOs i have invested in have launched at almost the ICO price but in a few days dipped below the ICO prices by half or 5X for some.

Hate to say it, but investing in an ICO right when it gets released is akin to investing in a stock IPO right when it gets listed. Both are risky because no one really knows how much the thing is supposed to be worth or who's pumping up the price. Look at Facebook when it went public. If I recall correctly the first thing it did was drop. True, it has risen significantly since then, but you would have lost money had you bought the stock right at the IPO.
In crypto it's even worse because of the lack of regulation and inherent risk investing in something that might not have a legitimate use and could be just a scam coin. If I were OP I would stay out of the ICO market altogether, but I would at least wait until the coin has been on the market for a few months before even considering buying it.

When the token comes in the market, its price is lower than the actual price. Many times, after going to the puzzle, we do not want to face any loss of investment. Many tokens come back to the real price after being adversely affected. It can never do some tokens. The year 2018 is very exceptional, the tokens are plentiful for Bitcoin prices.
I don't really know man but I feel like its just become private sale -> presale -> public sale, whatever number of round there is and just dump on the public once the coins reach the exchange. I mean its like there is no more reason to buy on exchange unless the price bleeds down to ICO or sub ICO price. People who get into this private sales literally have no risk at all.
According to me we have to wait for the stability of the price for ICO based tokens because after launching the coin bounty hunters and few investors start selling their share thats why price fell down, we just need to hold the same for few months and when we stability in price then we may sell our coins/tokens. In 2017 bitcoin price was so high so peoples earned a lot.
ICO market is changing. After the hype in 2017, when many were doing x2-X10, the market cooled down. In the pursuit of quick profit, many enter for this. only strong companies will survive in this competition.

Succes of ICO and how much profit it can give depends on general situation on the market and trend, when everything falls don't participate in tokensales, only if it is really technically strong project like Usechain.

2017 was so bullish even for many of the shitcoins and shit ICOs , as the market grows it becomes more mature and become more developed , Market is smart and removes shitcoins and shit tokens by the time , I believe that 2018 was good If you know the good ICOs , for ex Ontology becomes almost 20x from the ICO time , or Zil token , yeah the number of high gained ones were not as much as 2017 so far but still there were some , that makes the difference between good trader and average one.
The bullish trend came in the 2nd half of last year so we cannot conclude now, maybe after June this year we will start seeingsome of the coins that will be exploding like last year, I am still very confident that time will come bullish actions will be back again and we will reach the moon.
I hope it comes true and market awake on june from this long Hibernation , Some coins has done so good so far like CS , Ncah , but almost most of them were down , but the future is unknown and i'm optimist.
