I noticed that many investors were afraid to buy during ICO because their reason they are cheaper can be bought on market. Especially when they found out  that a large percentage is allotted in the bounty program. Many Bounty Hunters  immediately selling token/coin even lower than the ICO price.

Its a risk both ways, in the ICO you could get cheaper but research shows probably on 50% of ICOs ever make it to the market so right away you're safer waiting to see if it even makes it to the market.

If you're going to buy in the ICO, i'd read through this research first. https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3163849 "Are Blockchain Crowdsales the New 'Gold Rush'? Success Determinants of Initial Coin Offerings"

Buying a coin depends, some coin are better to buy during ICO while some are better to buy in the market, if it is a coin that gives huge bonus during the ICO then there will be huge dump in the market, so it is better to wait and buy then in the market. It's all depends on project on a final note.

In my opinion, maybe that's true. but I am not talking about hunting bounty dumping as the reason they are not participating ICO, but maybe avoid getting into ICO scam. You have to use your knowledge to judge what is best for a particular coin, a lot of coins can have a cheaper price after ICO but there are also many other coins that skyrocket right away so you need to apply your criteria and decide whether you think there will be great enthusiasm after ICO.

During the last few days, I checked dozens of ICOs, which had ended during the past two months. Not a single one got listed in the exchanges at a rate which is above the ICO price. All of them fell by anywhere from 50% to 95% at the time of listing.

as for my opinion if in order to choose which is better investment in ICO or in market I personally will choose in market.
because with already been in the market is certain we know how the development of the project and we can minimize the losses that exist.

Depends on the project, some ICO coins that have a solid prohect are good to invest in early, especially if its a stake coin so you can gain return on your coin holdings

All project should be has protection to anticipate this situation, they should make protection for their investor who supported their project , the team developer should pay all bounty reward in ETH,  this is the best solution so will be no body dumped the price of the token.

With the high increase of ico's nowadays it is normal for investors to not directly invest during the campaign and they would rather wait in the market. For me it depends on how promising and if the project has potential at all. A lot of investors invest on ico's that are promising, has a good concept and well planned.

Actually, such problems have some preconditions. That is, look at the environment at that time. If the market environment was relatively good at that time, then investment in the market would be better. If the environment was not good at the time, then suggestions were made. Invest more in ico, waiting for the advent of the bull market.

I think it depends on projects of the ICOs, if it is has good goal and well-design to rach. Of course the coins will be good both during the ICO or on market. However, the price of the coins mostly are down when the ICO ends. Additionally when the bounty hunters have received the reward or tokens of their works, so it is probably the best time to buy coins. It will take long time the get raised the price of certain tokens after the tokens distributed.

If price is go down after the ICO, for me it's not a good sign maybe it's not that good project if the price go down it's not necessarily true but I'm beginning to think that way

I prefer to buy a token have potential to gives us more profit during ico time. Invest in a long term and exchage afterwards many investors do this kind of process less % to buy more gain to exchange.

I prefer to buy when the project hit the exchanges, because most of the time the prices are a lot better. In a very, very rare occasions if I think that all token will be sold, I may invest in the ICO.

If the project is good, then its price will not be less than the price specified at least at the beginning of the ICO. But unfortunately, practice suggests that most ICO are cheap.

That's a good question.  I think if buying coins on the exchange, it's less risky than participating in the ICO.

If you do not want to take risks and participate in the ICO, you can buy coins after you enter the exchange.

Buying during the ICO,will give you advantage of buying with bonus. If the ICO is promising then when your coins or token grows in Price you will make more profit.

In my opinion, buying during ICO is preferred. You never would know in advance how the project will turn out or how the market would receive such project. We can only speculate and prepare.
