Everyone has a different "strategy" or mentality or even principles when it comes to investing. Some people will go for this: buying an ICO getting a short term profit and sell immediately. They do that and repeat the process over and over again, some of them don't think clear enough and they might successfully flip one two three or even four ICO's, but one of them will eventually get them and they'll lose a lot of money. The best strategy is to focus on the idea behind the project and what is provides to its target audience. If the project and the idea is indeed valuable, then it will fill a market cap which will eventually flow capital into the project, it's more about finding a good project (good idea that is) which is combined by capable developers. The implementation is as important and even more important as the idea itself. Look where no one is looking and you might find a "diamond" project for a discount, which might even make you rich in the long term.

It is natural that nobody willing to lose his capital in any scam project, I also wiling to invest in any project for better return on investment for better future, it mean all love their hard earned money safe and grow better rather than loose capital in any scam project, so its better that research well for any project and also get information about their management team ,then invest in.In short I don't want to dump my capital, I here for gaining profit and rise my capital.

I’m into it for money purpose only most of the times. I will support the cause only as long as it interests me otherwise there is no reason for it support. I mean not for long time. I supported TenX for longer than i expected I would do because I wanted to have their black premium edition debit card. I was not lucky enough to get it as first 100 investors but I enjoyed supporting the project for long time. So you see it’s all about the project and how it might perform or what are the advantages of it.
Unless we all just want to deceive ourselves, what is the purpose of investing in the first place ?
Is it not for the cash and profit you will make from it ?

The only difference is that there are some projects you will most definitely know to give a very fantastic result in the long term and you will be willing to hold while some may look a bit bleak, so with that the decision is left on you.

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 participate in the ICO when the project has the proof of their achievements in the previous work. Well, money is just a matter we invest because we need to earn big. Can you give me a name if the money is not the matter when you invest it.

I must say i am growing into the crypto world and i have different emotions. First i started because of the ideas and development (make the world a better place). But later the greed took over and i was only after the money. Now i think i found a good balance. Some projects for the money, some for me Smiley

Cheers

It is for the money folks! I do not trust any fiat in any state. Fiat is the reason for all the economic crisis and woes the world has experienced. I keep all of my money in bitcoin and I will continue to do so. So far there is no regret.

The vast majority of people are only in it for the money, I don't care what they say.  They can ramble on about whatever ideology they want, but the rampant abuse and greed that is happening in crypto right now shows this to be true.

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.

No i don't invested in the due to the money only, i was bought business, new innovation,  or something solutions on digital currency, investment in the ICOs are mean i am becoming an investor, it is based on the fundamental of projects and for long time investment, i don't think invested in ICOs it just for the money, i am thinking about the money just in trading altcoins activity ( short term investment in  trading is not on ICOs projects).

To be honest, I am collecting Bitcoin just for the benefit of the money generated. I'm not sure about the true value of Bitcoin, I just use the rising Bitcoin price to benefit from the investment.

Some people collect Bitcoin because they believe that Bitcoin will be the most influential currency for the future of the world. Some say that Bitcoin will be a tool of transactions that replace cash. But I do not think that far, now I just take advantage of the benefits that can be obtained from the Bitcoin price alone.
I think there is missunderstanding but i have made bold related my statement above, i think it was clear for you, i made investment into the ICOs projects based on my analysis fundamental of the projects for long term investment and i am thinking about the money in trading altcoins short term investment, and i don't know, do you know about the difference between long term investment and short term investment.

I'm in it for the money, but I believe that you can only make money on sound ICOs that have long term potential.

Most ICOs will fail, because most are scams or don't make sense.

For me the ICO must have big potential and they have proof that they have written software.

Without this, there is a good chance that the ICO is a scam or will never deliver.

In it for the money but as time flies by you will attached to it somehow.
ICO's takes some time before it ends so you will know it better by means of telegram and updates of the developer or their manager. In this time, you will know more about it and somehow you will also learn that it could be a strong service and would try to support it until the end.

When I buy some alt, or bitcoin itself, or invest on an ICO, then I'm in it for the project itself. I'm not a trader, so if there is no real application or value, other then the possible profit it could bring, there is not point in doing it, because eventually the project will fail. The project can still fail even with a good idea, and that is entirely different, but it needs to have real potencial, otherwise it is doomed to fail right from birth. If there is no value, it's a bubble, if it's a bubble why support it? You know you can only get profit from bubbles at the cost of other people's money, so it's not right to get into these things just for the profit in my opinion.

That's one of the reasons why I support regulation on ICOs, to decrease the chances of bubbles being created, that will not only cost money to people, but will also promote fear, causing real projects to also suffer from it.

I am here to earn some money. When I invest in some project, I do a research about it. Is it something that will improve todays life, will it ease some processes, is it inovative?. These are things that I look for. Also good team should be behind that. In any case it should have a story that I can understand and for which I think it will bring some improvements. If it looks like scam or something that is illegal, I am staying out of that. So it is about the money but something that I believe it has a strong use case and a future.

Also what is great in new cryptocurrencies that it have ended number of tokens. So price will growing! (if it is successfull project).
Like we see bitcoin is growing. And like so many other coins.

Well it is about currencies so it is inherently linked to making money.
For ICOs, it depends on times, sometimes it can be only for the money, sometimes for both money and personnal views :p

I would like to think that money is an incentive of investing in crypto currencies, especially bitcoin. Most early investors of bitcoin had realized that centralised organizations(govts or banks) manipulate the fiat currency as per their liking and santoshi(may god bless him/them) gave us the most potent weapon to take this power away from these organizations. If bitcoin is mass adopted, I see peace, progress and harmony among individuals living in different parts of the globe.

well generally the project which has a good way of going about things normally has long term success which means you get more money. So I do care about the project.

Of course I'm in for the money. Imagine how many ICO's and projects have failed goals and if I ended up trusting their cause first, I'll end up in the gutter haha.

Talking about money is endless as if life is just making money. In the real world we leave very early only a few cents. Here in the crypto world we are looking for new coins to trade for profit, it is great because we are all in the forum. By the way we can know how to sell and buy and invest then we have a bitcoin business opportunity to earn money.

To be honest, I am in it for the money in every aspect Smiley

Well, I wouldnt join anything if it clearly was illegal and/or morally wrong stuff. But other than that its for the potential money Smiley
Not only you, have I thought everyone here comes for the money. There may be some other reasons for every other individual but for me too, I prefer to come here just for earning money. These coins have shown such great shine of profits that we are unable to control. Methods for earning are much easier, just need some focus and observations so that we can earn more than we actually expected.

most of us is join into one ico or several ico is because for the money like you said. we want to grow our money amount with investing in the ico which we know will give us some nice profit although not all of the ico will gets success in their journey. but it is hard to choose the good ico if we don't know anything about the roadmap and the benefits from that ico. we need to have research more details about their project so we know that the project will gets their success in the long term.
