Topic: In it just for the money? (Read 1384 times)
Even the founders of the projects are in them for the money. Every entrepreneur is doing business to have a higher income. It can be something they believe it, but at the end of the day, they do it for the money. I think it is the same when you have to invest in an ICO. It is best to invest in something you believe in, because there are higher chances you'll succeed, though.
Yes, I believe the majority are in this for the money but it depends on how you are investing or if it is day trading you are interested in. I only invest in coins/projects that I have done thorough research on.
It's not only about the money, it's about the technology as well. I think we are all very lucky to be living in the era where blockchain takes place, it reminds me of the time when exchanges started to take shape and the finance world started to develop. It's quite similar with Blockchain, another example if the internet or the PC era, all these new technologies had similarities to what we are seeing today. As long as the technology is doing something good for the future, I don't see why you shouldn't make money out of it. And if people are building these blocks that are being used by other people and will be used by much more many in the future, then they should get rewarded for their risk and effort that they've put into this.
Most of us are in it for the money, I would like to invest in something that is going to actually work, something that is real and most definitely achievable.
I read in a post somewhere that some ICO's are simply shitty dreams about changing the world in one way or another, those are the ICO's are try to avoid and most probably are a scam.
Look into trade.io an innovative new blockchain trading platform that will disrupt the financial ecosystem and democratize the markets. Currently at PRE-ICO and is sharing with the community a Bounty program, you can also collect Airdrops.

Yes, definitely i am in it because of money, earnings.
Before investing the fruit of your hard work we have to make sure by doing some research if its legitimate and reliable.

It's just business. Of course, this is for earnings. You won't spend your money on unprofitable and useless projects that you don't trust, aren't you? You want to change your personal future with its help..
Investing is just plaving bets on the future. Investors in the end have no affect if a project is used in the future. We just making bets.. So believong in the future of a project is the same as investing. The smokescreen is projects trying ti make you think they are the future and traders playing along for the ride.
Money flooding into crypto is ultimately a good thing and the good stuff will survive and the dead stiff will ded. Thats what the free market does.

You must have to invest to a reliable and trustworthy projects. You should research first of what project you want to invest so that you will know if is it was not illegal or scam.
When investing in ICOs, are there times when you invest for a high ROI but don't really care for the cause behind the project? Or do you only invest when you believe the project has a strong use case and feel personally attached?
I am new to BitcoinTalk but I am not new to investing. With all my investments, my criteria is whether I believe in the idea and whether it is something the world needs. In other words, if I don't feel personally invested in the idea, then I won't be investing my money.
For example, there is a new project called Protex and I invested in their pre-sale because I believe they are going to solve a major issue the entire world has. They are a data security company that will give the power of data back to the users instead of large corporations. All while essentially eliminate data breaches. With a platform that will positively affect everyday of my life, it is easy to be invested in them.
But I want to know your thoughts! In it just for the money?
I am with you. In fact, I've been into airdrops (free tokens/coins) for the past few weeks after learning about these ICOs, and I've never bought any pre-sale tokens and coins in my life. And if ever I'm going to buy any new tokens/coins, the first thing that I will look at is their whitepaper. Even if it's airdrop, I always look at their whitepaper and fin out the problem they want to solve, and their solution. Other airdrops that do not have any whitepaper or clear objectives is honestly an automatic NO for me even if it's free. That's because in the future, people won't stay on supporting this project and it will eventually disappear in the market because it is not used properly.I am new to BitcoinTalk but I am not new to investing.

One example of the airdrops that I joined which I think is (and should be) a success is the authorship (ATS) which which aims to help authors and writers publish their books with the use of its flatform.
I also believe that the people are a part of the success of any ICO/project. The only difference maker is that how people understand the objective of an ICO/project, and I hope they should really understand the purpose. I hope people will stop the "MONEY ONLY" mentality that makes the supposedly USEFUL project USELESS.
sometimes idea/team and pure sixth sense. Now holding 3 projects that are below ICO price. Don't sell them when they even reach breakeven. Waiting X10 ))
but in most cases to flip.

Personally, I support the projects in which we believe. I'm not interested in the money from ICO because it's fast buck.
Investing your time is one way to know if the coin is worth investing in or not. If you ever feel that the coin sucks then get out of it.

Buy the doubt, sell the belief. Rinse, repeat.
Buying at a low price is the important part of investing in coins on this forum. If investors are only in it for the money then they should be doing that.I think the bigger investors just wait for a decent roi, price doesn't even have to pump that much with a big investment.
Dump and on to the next one.
Even while waiting for a decent ROI, it still all balls down to profit. Usually most projects get dumped in the first instance they hit the market as it will still take some little time to get them up to speed for the normal users to see how relevant they are and which is what the investors are looking forward to when buying in at the cheaper rate and holding until they are so sure, they are good enough to opt out. Dump and on to the next one.
Yes .. invest my time and my money for make more money .. I hope it will pay

To be sincere, i invest in ICO for the money. Who will invest money to get nothing in return? It is not a donation. I think most people investing on something want to gain something in return.
To be sincere me investing in any ICO is for the money, exclusively for the money.
This is my favorite quote:
money makes the world go round
People are not investing money because they like project and want to support it, they invest money because they think project will be successful and would bring them more money. Everything is about money, who says different is lying.

We are all reasonable people and engaging in any project as an investor, first is concerned about possible income. A big plus if you know the inner essence of the idea. Money is the first factor, the second idea, and third is everything else. But there is interest. If the idea is not interesting to me, I'm just not going to study it, and therefore don't recognize on its financial promises.
