Topic: ICO's killing crypto - page 4. (Read 3638 times)
Peoples adopting to crypto world with ICOs. I don't agree with you ICOs are not killing crypto and they are forcing crypto.
don't think the ICO scam are killing crypto but the people who fall for these scams will get a lesson. They will learn the basics of investment how, when and where to invest. Although, It is very bad as some people lose their money, If we look it from a different perspective it will help the bitcoin to grow more as the most users move towards bitcoin after this.
I think it is very isolated case in china since most of past ICOs there turn out to be scam that's why china is trying to put some regulations on it but there are a lot of upcoming ICO from legitimate people because they know that ICO is a good project, good investment and does a lot of income.
Dear,
I like ICO because it have a great opportunity for us.

or country.

In my opinion ICOs are a necessary aspect of cryptocurrency evolution into mainstream society in coming years. Sure there have been a shit ton of bad ICOs/cash grabs but theres no denying that some of the innovation that these allow for has directly contributed to not only social acceptance as we are beginning to see it with the general public but also technical advances. They do need to be strictly regulated though imho.
Absolutely, it's not regulated at all and that can be a bad thing, everyone can start their own thing and basically pump n dump and yes, there are tooo many shit and scam coins that it's getting out of hand. No wonder they banned ICOs in China, there should be some filter to let the ones that are worth something get out to the world...

I would say nothing is killing crypto) It's a natural process, every new industry went through this... At first, it should be an uncontrollable start, then people who want to find some holes in the new rules appear, we need some time to develop law, and then we have more or less stable managed market.. nothing special
I'd say scam ICO's are killing cryptos. Not legitimate ones. Unfortunately, too many so called entrepreneurs are catching the windfall on this
But if the ICOs doesnt exist then there would not be almost any altcoins on the market, maybe 8/10 altcoins had initial coin offerings, so you are wrong with that.
but yes, the market is saturated by new icos, because the developers thinks that this is a fast way to become rich, and this is why there are a lot of new icos everyday, and i am not impressed by them anymore, since they all are the same, they promise too much, but they dont even do a 10% of what they promise.

really 2017 was bad year for ICO even good powered ICO came with new idea that might help blockchain technology turned to be only profit collectors and main depends on WAVE\ETH assets. ETT was my last ICO which convince me to own special Tel number going to be used to secure communication privacy .
all ICO do not improve any for blockchain tech. just collect money to develop their product

ICOs are mainly used to raise funds to give a start for a new project, and a share of them are scamms, but ICO and crypto complement each other really well, despite any drawbacks, including obstructing the mainstream awareness about ICO and cryptos.
Recent news of the imminent closer of many Chinese exchanges is the direct result of them dealing in ICOs, I've been shocked for the longest time other countries have done so, allowing ICO's to fly under regulators radar, however its only just a matter of time.
It has some bad influence to crypto, but I don't think icos will be killed by governments . No one could stop the development of block chain , China limited some shit icos, they were scammer.Because most of the case about speculative, the ICO market is subject makes China interested and banned it in their country first.
ICO is not killing the crypto world,change and development is normal a thing evolve inbthe crypto world.scammers/fraudersters are the main challenges we have here,over time they will be checkmate.
That's more or less correct. I think an even more important role that contributes to more scams popping up, is the fact that people blindly invest their money into anything they find. This is exactly the type of behavior that is giving scammers the incentive to expand and spread like a virus where they are harming the community. If people for once just took the time to think and do proper research before blindly diving into whatever ICO, this whole ICO craze wouldn't be infested with scammers.

Really man, you should try to look more deeper into the happenings today in the crypto world. ICOs aren't killing the crypto world. Instead, it is maming it better. It attracts more people everyday. Which is good for us who love crypto currencies. And the governments still can't do anything to pin down crypto currencies enough to make it illegal. So don't worry too much. If it happens then it happens. At least we had a great ride.
I agree with you. It is not very good and wise to invest our money in ICO because as you can see, there are likely a thousand of ICOs around and many projects have the same idea to each other. Therefore, scammers can easily make a same project and collect people's money.

ICO is another field with crypto. eth = kickstarter platform for people want quick money by using blockchain tech
