we don't need to think that all ICOs are scams... There are many really good teams now who are trying to launch a new coin but they are also trying to make a wide and strong community and have some really demanding technologies behind this.
Not all icos are scam but a good number are, they make promises about a project and people give to them millions of dollars and then after some time they just disappear with all the money they got from their investors and after sometime they come back to the forum to try to scam members once again.
Topic: Investing in ICO, still promising? - page 63. (Read 20594 times)
it is actually getting really hard to find a promising ICO to invest. There are a lot of projects and ICOs in market, more and more.
But my answer is yes, on condition that after carefully research.
But my answer is yes, on condition that after carefully research.
From the investor's point of view, the profit from ico purchase is the main one. There are some projects that just want their sales to work and eventually move very slowly in every project update after the coins appear in the market trading, this is a big problem, not all investors have a "dump" mental, if the coins they buy have a prospect then they will keep it.
Some are just investing on ICO's just to have a bonus then dumps it after they recieve their tokens.
This is the truth about ICO's nowadays, mostly doesn't care about the road maps, whitepapers or any plans the devs wants to make it happen. Every ICO investor is researching first on what are the promising projects and once they seen those projects that are attracting more investors they'll get into it already. The bonus tokens are the most attracting bonus that ICO's are doing most of the time now.

Bankera may be interesting https://icodrops.com/bankera/Love the idea of decentralized banking system!
I am a person that gains profit from investing in ICOs but now I'm having second thoughts. I know some ICOs are potential scam so I am really picky to where I put my money.
Anyway, considering with what happened to Ethereum price and with the nearing Aigist 1, do you guys think that it will still be profitable to invest on ICOs mostly on ERC20 tokens and those accepting btc payments?

Yeah I do not agree with that. I now look for ICOs with little to no bonus given. Bounty is fine as it helps spread the project but bonus is just a bad idea.

Yes, most definitely, because of the unregulated nature of these investments many of them can be higher risk than other traditional investments, however, like other higher risk investments this comes with a higher return. I'd say treat ICOs like you would any other investment with a similar risk profile and make sure you diversify your investments to match you risk-return preferences.

Being new to this, investing in ICO is still promising for me, even though I missed the big party, if I research correctly am sure am going to find smaller parties, with decent returns.
If people support this, meaning only the good projects, then it will continue to rise, with just slower returns and less projects over time.
if you will analyze carefully you have the best chance to make a profit than to lose, as long as you will invest in big If people support this, meaning only the good projects, then it will continue to rise, with just slower returns and less projects over time.
ICOs that has a chance to be successful you can expect devs will be inspired in achieving their goals based on the road map,
that way you will see the value increase and you can sell with a profit.
You just need to learn to hold longer as success does not happen overnight.

This question was asked in july! If the op were to answer his own question he may find interesting answer for himself. As long as there is ineffective, wasteful and centralized system, people will keep on looking for solutions and that search will lead them to blockchain applications that are promising. Such of such promising one is Spectre. Spectre is creating Brokerless platform for Financial instrument and Asset all over the world. Isn't that promising?
I think if the team is solid, the product is something I can see and it is obviously more than just an idea, then it is worth seriously considering.
True, team is a solid factor, although in this case you won't be able to meet them physically. Market size is just as important.
If supply is fixed, and demand is increasing, then economic theory suggests the price should increase.
It is a principle of complex systems, embedded in a mathematically certain operation. It is like that economic laws would apply on the blockchain, and so far they seem to be.

I think ICOs have given retail investors the chance to stand in a friends/family/angel/VC's shoes; able to invest in pre-idea/idea/product stage of a start up. I strongly urge all of you participating in an ICO to think like an angel/VC, the startup may be a good idea, may already have a product, but is the market or traction substantial enough to warrant an investment from you?
Investing in an ICO may seem like an exciting way to be a part of the virtual currency and blockchain startup markets, but use caution when you consider these investments. New technologies and topics that are the subject of media buzz are often used by fraudsters as an opportunity to dupe investors. To stay on guard and avoid becoming drawn into a scam, look for the warning signs of investment fraud. For example, be suspect of anyone who makes guarantees that an investment will perform a certain way or makes pushy sales pitches that encourage you to “act now” or miss out

Lots of scam, but also very useful projects. For me Anryze is the most promising. They've almost raised soft cap! 
It willl be better if it is the hardcap they can reach. It shows how good the service of the coin will be by its project.
But I dont say it aint good, some of the token just reach ssoft cap at pre sale then booming at the ICO which almost depletes the token from all the sale.
I think it is also the support from the advertisers which makes a big impact. ICO's are still good even if there have been a lot of bad news.
I would say that investing in ICO is still promising. It will be especially good after China cleans them. Perhaps, other countries will follow China, since the issue of security conducted by ICO for investors is raised and this will definitely lead to a positive result. ICO is not so useless as many here describe. Some coins created in the process of their holding are really extremely useful, others are not. This is a market.
Yes, investing into bitcoin is truly promising. Maybe the ICO ban and proofless issues generated a price decline, but the successful projects have a good value based on number of investors associated with it as well based on the uniqueness it has got in terms of technology and the objective behind it.
