During this bear market even most successful project with real use cases has been worst when hits in the market. Most ICO's were profitable in last year & starting of this year. As a result of it most people were ready to invest & it was indeed a good investment method to multiply your investment in few months. But unfortunately most of the ICOs are failed according to the statics & the best ICOs are not easy to invest. Personally i have gained good amount of money after buying in ICO. So as some failures are there too. success rate of the ICOs are very low now. In this bear market you can have a good profit buying some good coins & holding for long time. That's most secured as a newbie. 
we can say for certain that the bears market is the strongest factor affecting the performance of tokens. It is predicted that the trend will change when bitcoins hits 10k $ or more

ICOs will be much more profitable and tokens will sell at a higher price on its being listed on exchanges when the market is bullish, it will be the norm when the market flips for the better

I think that it is happen because they do research before investing in ICO. Also I think that it is profitable in many cases because as I see they receive more tokens than bounty hunters and can sell it immediately when tokens arrive on exchange.

So that people who invest in ICO believe that this only token will be listed with x5, x6 from ICO price.
as we see on how much ICO raise nowadays such people are less and less

I was wonder why so many people invest in ICO when they don't know the actual token price, almost every ICO token is with lower price when go to exchange after ICO ends. If you believe in the success of ICO, why don't wait and buy directly from exchange at lower price?
There were many ICO projects which made 1000% up after ICO ends.
For your info. Ethereum was also an ICO.
At the begining the price was around 0.1 USD. And have a look where it is now.

I prefer not to invest in ICO tokens/coin exactly. cause as we know a lot of ICO tokens/coin price after launch to exchanger always down (most of them) and it too risky to invest in ICO exactly cause there is a lot of scam outside and a lot of the ICO tokens/coin copy the other feature. I dont say all of ICO tokens/coins like that, but its too hard exactly to find a good ICO. so when you want to invest in ICO, I must suggest you to really research them first before deciding want to join them or not.

Because they are afraid that the project will fail, and many investors are not greedy, they will sell immediately when they think the profit is enough, without waiting to buy from the exchange!

Good day. We have a family business for the rabbit farm, which we develop independently from scratch. We want to introduce shares in our economy in the form of tokens in order to quickly complete the development of the farm of rabbits and transfer them to a proper high level. But on this we do not want to stop and we want to create with the help of Blochina an economy that has no borders in development, following our stage of development is the creation of a farm with goats for the production of milk and cheeses.
To all holders of tokens, we promise the rapid growth of our economy and dividends of 10% per annum, as well as we will put our token on the stock exchange for free trade.
What do you think about this?

We have a YouTube channel from the very beginning
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCz3wH7TvkQ1NbmDZznS1pbQ

Public channel of the family business Telegram https://t.me/FermaK on which I will answer any questions regarding the development of our business in which you are directly involved as an investor and you have or want to buy a token FermaK

Actually, the ICO risk is only focused on the existence of a "crime" that is behind the project so that it is not the profit that is gained but the advantage that will come. So, if you are interested in joining ICO investments, the easiest thing to do in ensuring a potential ICO is:

Study carefully the Whitepaper documents that are made.
Ensuring that the Developer is trusted or at least has identity certainty.
Ensuring the existence of Escrow facilities, where there is a full guarantee from a "Trusted" third party as a place to store Investo funds

I think why they invest in ICO is that they get a bonus coin offered in pre-sale but for me i will wait for it to get listed in exchange because some of the investor dump their coin when they have doubled or profited from it.

This is what am thinking too because many ico project cant not even maintain the ico price when they got to exchange and secondly the have the highest risk as for as cryptocurrency is concern according to what my friend told me.

I think everything depends on the ICO. Whether the project reaches its big target or not, if they achieve that, I believe that the coin price will be good if it has been registered on the exchange. they expect not to be fulfilled.

If a coin is really good it will gradually increase despite on wherever it's listed. Like what people believe that once it's listed in binance it will skyrocketed, yes some of it but not all so cut the crap and don't depend on listing.

But who decides the starting price of a token when appear in exchange? How COIN A in ICO is 10 cents on exchange is 20 cents and COIN B 20 cents in ICO on exchange 1 cent at starting price?

The starting price is only determine by the market however there are some ico that put a base price on the value to avoid getting dump. Otherwise, don't expect that the ico price will be the price in trading sites so don't speculate your profit early or you'll be dismay.

It is a human nature , the prospect of earning very big amount in future  make it neglect every logical fact  and every advisory that is present. We just try to console ourselves might be others were unlucky but everything will be good for us.


 If you believe in the success of ICO, why don't wait and buy directly from exchange at lower price?

Exchange listing take times and if it is really a good ICO then I do not think that it will be dumped that hard. Everybody has a "FOMO" and marketing peoples are expert in cashing these emotions.

Learn how to participate in an ICO and buy a token with an easy to follow step by step guide to get you investing in cryptocurrency  ICO is a process of issuing a public coin or token. Because an ICO can be a source of the capital for startup companies. Therefore, an ICO unregulated means by which funds are raised for a new cryptocurrency venture. In an ICO, a quantity of the crowdfunded cryptocurrency is sold to speculators or investors in the form of the token, in exchange for legal tender or other cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin or ethereum. However, investing in ICO token a percentage of the cryptocurrency is sold to early backers of the project in exchange for legal tender or other cryptocurrencies, but  usually for bitcoin.

Out of 22 ICOs, which have a positive trend in 2018, only two (9%) operate with application tokens. All other projects are aimed at developing the infrastructure of the blockhouse: these are decentralized applications (dApp), decentralized exchanges (DEX), new blockrooms or scaling solutions. If you are going to invest in ICO, then choose "real" block-projects, and not projects like "something on the blockbuster." And you better make sure that you get to the presale.

All investments will have a very large risk, if you get a very good project, maybe you will feel the benefits that you expect, but if you get or invest in a project that is not good or can be called not achieving the sales target as expected, maybe what you say in that category.

Investing in a project is always a risk. however, the currency can have a very large increase and then the exchanges will not sell it cheaper. It's your choice anyway. I think if you found an excellent project and are confident in it, you need to invest quickly in it. otherwise it may be too late.

I think everyone has their own plans, ICO is used to buy tokens at low prices, and when the market list hopes the price will be higher, many people already feel double profits and also many people who fail to buy products from ICO and experience great losses

If the project has good ideas, a strong team, and a finished product - it will have a good future. Recently, many projects-Scam to deceive investors. Bounty participants greatly reduce the price of the coin when they sell it. Sorry for my English.

Why do people refer to it as "investing". It's pure speculation, and it probably offers a worse chance of making a profit than gambling on scratch cards.

I think you should say if you believe in the success of project.
And if you believe in the success of project, why dont you invest while they give the bonus for early investment? If this is a successful project, their price will grow up after listing on exchanges.
If you loss your money, you choose a wrong project to invest.

Not every ICO will go lower price after listed on market. Have you heard about ODEM? Their ICO price is 0.05 Euro and their alltime-high is $0.32.

Because people don't understand in what they investing in.
Most people are so focused on promises of huge returns that they turn off thinking clearly.

That is sad, its human nature tho :/

I have seen this question before but are you aware that there bonus tokens when you buy during the ICO phase? There's also some discount if you'll buy during the pre-sale. You get more tokens during the ICO period so there are investors that wants it that way.

At the beginning of this year & end of last year there was a time that everyone loves investing in ICO as it was more beneficial & secured investment method. Still most of them believes that ICOs are secured investments. Due to the market condition many ICOs are failed to get the momentum but even in red market some ICOs has given more than 10x for their investors. If the market continues to be in red for few months better to bag some good ICO coins to get maximum profit in a bull run. Mostly we can expect some green signal in near future in the market & better to be ready with major ICOs like WAN. But keep your on updated regarding market situation to grab these coins at a lower price.

If the project has awesome hype then you should buy in ICO cuz surely on exchange will be a higher price if there is a big demand for that token . If you do not feel that a project is a good idea then do not put your money in that

I wrote a thread about investing in icos here, but part of what I wrote is that one has to be very careful when selecting an ICO. a lot of ICOs are stupid to invest in, partly because of how they allow "private investors" to purchase at x% discount than everyone else. so if the ICO ends at $1, maybe 10% of the supply was bought at $0.1, and they can happily dump it for $0.5!

many people fall for the false promises of ICOs, and well, stupid people will part with their money sooner or later.
but as you said, it's not always the case - so, if people believe they've found a good ICO, then they buy.
the issue is just that many peopel don't know what's a good ICO!

Investing in ICO projects is not for everyone, not everyone wants to invest in something that's not confirmed, but if you know what you're doing, it's going to make a pretty good profit. People are investing in ICO because they expect to get rich on it like on every crypto, it's going to be a cheaper token on the exchange, so it's not always certain. They buy poor quality tokens, at an inappropriate time, and then sell them with loss. I have an ICO project experience, but i did not buy in the pre-sale phase. I did not have the money for more investment. After a while the coin got into the exchange. I waited a moment and sold with 100% profits, the coins were obtained from their bounty program.

Because some think this is their only chance to get that token at its "cheapest price" possible and some of them are actually right. Some ICO tokens tends to launch up after their tokens are officially released and they never go below to the offered price during the pre-sale which makes this ICO believers in the state of a instant gain. Also another case is almost all cryptocurrencies on the date of launching tends to pump, some people actually just participate ICO sales in anticipation of a pump and dump.

almost every ICO token is with lower price when go to exchange after ICO ends.

That is not true. Some ICO tokens get to gain above 100% growth when they hit the market if they have a pretty strong base - which means if their project is attractive and their ICO has been actually successful but not faked, then they are likely to get a rise when they are listed in exchanges. So people buy the tokens in ICO phase to get profits when the token is listed in the markets and gets to a higher price than they bought them in.
