And the market changer in general. BTC/USD trading change and became more like forex. A lot of plp lost their money and quitted.
Also I've heard some advisers dump their tokens.

It is a fact that in 2018 most of the ICO are unprofitable, approximately 76 percent. Even Te-food did not bring profit to their investors. The rest generally went, well, if you return the money.

price totally depends on market

I usually see that big projects never go under their ICO price , but as it is in market so anything can happen.

I always take part in ICO's which are of very high quality. For now i am looking forward to take part in Egretia project.

Do your own research before you invest.

Thank you

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 can see that the market is falling into crisis and there are many coin are constantly losing value. Market capitalization is declining and investors are losing confidence in the bitcoin market. Therefore, ICO projects at the moment are very difficult, many projects have collapsed when they can not call for sufficient capital to operate. So it fell

The ICOs these days are undeniably not as good as before and that is due to the sudden hyped elevation of prices last year. That is why tokens from ICOs are better before because of the bull market. Today, the whole market is in bloodbath making dumps of coin prices to be extreme after being launched in exchanges.

Frankly speaking I dont see any relation between the current bloodbath and the ICO that are coming out currently. Its fact that they are already bad way of earning money but sometimes you get huge money out of it and thus you start believing that they are great and you can catch more ICO like that way. Also its not about the 2017 or 2018 but its about whether we are seeing some good team meet ups or not. I mean its the quality of people thats dropping day by day and thus making it crash day by day. Off course there are both good and bad sides of it, its in our hands which one to choose and earn money from. ICO are shits since the first day they were launched in the crypto but its us who can make good choice.

A little something that might change your mind:  there ARE many projects that look promising. You need to go out of your way to search for them, however.
However, ICO success rate has been dropping every month ever since June 2017. Consistent data like that can't be chalked up to a coincidence, the ICO market is oversaturated.

indeed some people are lost their money because buy ICO coins with too high and if those coin are being listed at the exchange then the price of those coins were below at the ICO price and maybe buy coin during ICO are risky now but i don't think all of ICO coins are bad such as that and in my view if you're discover good ICO project then i'm pretty sure you still able to get profit from that

If I remember correctly, in 2017 I invested more than 10 ICO projects. And I have a lot of money from these ICOs. But in early 2018 I have invested in the ICO COPYTRACK and ATFS projects. I had a loss of capital

The reason is that because the price of BTC is low, ICO is affected a lot. ICO can not make much of the same profit as 2017. So by 2018 we will have to choose very carefully the ICO

the year just started, but its def not the same. there are a lot of icos coming out this year , more than 40 a day.
but at the same there seems to be more money invested in icos, just looking at the telegram ico #ton, and the amounts of money that has been raised this year.
BUT there were still 2018 icos that were succesfull, and with coins that have gone up.
Basically do your homework, pick the ico that has the right team, skip the ones with multiple red flags, weed out the trash, and go for the winner!

ICO is not profitable like before i strongly do not recommend to invest in ICO now because you will loss your profit as well . Better to wait next big pump ICO and invest there.

It is quite normal project without a working product yet will fall under their ICO price. It takes months and even years depends on their roadmoap and how hard their team works.

I think the ICO in 2018 will not be as successful as 2017. Do you find that the market is in a crisis when bitcoin and altcoin girls are continuously falling for days. At the moment the bitcoin is sharply decreasing, suggesting that the market is not getting much attention from investors and could lead to a collapse. ICO projects are also extremely affected by the inability to raise capital.

ICOs are speculation on top of more speculation. For now we're fully speculationed out. This year will prove with ease that almost all ICOs that came before are worthless and will fail, or more likely not even get as far as failing and simply disappear. The interest in them is going to dry up.

It's just the same as the Bitcoin forks. People can't leave what look like a good thing alone. They hammer and hammer until the idea is stone dead. Then it takes a new generation of buyers/victims to revive it.

I've never put a single penny into any ICO. I'm certainly not starting now. It's a fundamentally fucked up idea. If it's any good then I'll buy it after it's been established on an open market for months. I'm not going to fund someone's one afternoon of writing a website page and plagarising a whitepaper.

Just by how are you able to say so without laying out your data? I surmise this is yet another out-of-the-box feeling that you are experiencing especially because the market has gone down low. Otherwise, you would not even bother writing down your thoughts. I hope you and all others who merely base their write up with feelings should STOP because it is people like you that causes turbulence in the would-be smooth market of cryptocurrencies. Of course, I know the market can hardly become smooth because it is unregulated. Just that I see write ups like these as major threats too. Be it known that we are still on the 2nd quarter of 2018 yet you speak like as if it is all at the tail end now. How ridiculous it is for you to conclude at this early stage on!

This is truth but there are some that has done well in the market after the lunch. There is going to be a lot of things that are going to happen that will show people the reality and the nature of cryptocurrencies. Buying after the ico when a project is llunch into the market is far better.

The ICOs in 2017 are quite different in 2018, but the same in some aspects.
There are many ICOs rising in 2018, thats why its hard to pick the right or good ICO. We have to inspect it first before joining.
Because our money and hardwork will put in to trash if we pick scam ICO.

Well, fundermental of ICO is still the same but the market that support ICO such as ethereum and bitcoin  is what is low right now. ICO has become part and parcel of funding economic and very important part of cryptocurrency as well.

most coin ico falls below price. it is true..   but some coins make x3 x5.. so it is necessary to investigate well. you also see the situation of the market, all the coins are falling.

I do believed that most of the altcoins who got their price dumped, I am very sure when Bitcoin starts to go up again most of the top altcoins will also get pump like what will happen to bitcoin. But for now it is like a volcano sleeping yet and near to explode at any moment.
We are all hoping that would happen because if not we could dump more and it will get worse.
Patience for now is what we should be doing, without it we will never survive in the market, I do believe this manipulation will end and it will reverse
the current situation.

We have only stepped into the fourth month of this year. All the crypto coins would be gaining value. It is a way too early to judge anything about ICOs.
This is not even about judging nor identifying scam presently, the truth is that presently I would say the whole market has been seriously affected with the way things have been generally and it is affecting everything. If this happens like this, I think the best thing is to just get more once the price goes down lower than the ICO price, as one way or the other you will still be winning a lot from the whole thing anyway in the long run.

I mean there should be some regulations at least in this forum level so that people and their contribution may remain secured. Some study finds out only 8% of ICOs keep their word and projects and others are leaving of their project in the middle for various reasons which may be including intentional drop-out too.
