Topic: Is it safe to participate in ICO's? - page 74. (Read 15577 times)

its depend on the team project and the project itself.. if its legit or not.

It is not safe at all. But there are not any safe things in the world at all. How can you know that the ICO project is scam? Only analyze all data and only then make weighted decision.
Even dollar can be a scam that will collapse one day and our lives will turn into hell.

Get involve in ico is very high risk but very high return. High risk and high return are equal.
So dont just think about the price double, think àlso how if the price decrease. The decision is depending the person itself.

I think this will need a tight security that gives if you follow is participating in the ico deang choose and understand carefully of course you will have the best security in participating in a number of ico, I sure it akam makes us calm with the existing security

All investments are risky  with ico or not  .. Not all icos are safe for some are scam too... Just be more wise and do more research on what ico you want to participate  and invest only what you can afford to lose..

Everthing will go well as long as you research about the ICO you are going to follow. There are many ways to check if the ICO is safe or not: Read their whitepaper, search their website and try to find their social media, you can see it there if the ICO is updated or not.

I believe some of ICO are scams but yeah you just need to be careful and you need to choose the best ICO before you invest on that. Some are collecting then if they collect money they will be gone

I have participated in some already, I haven't made a killing yet, but I sure haven't lost any money.

Yes if it’s concept is clear. For example presently  I am participating in Is university bounty which is going to Integrate Education with Blockchain their concept is very clear so I go for it.

Yes it's good to join ICOs you just have to do your checks well so you don't get scammed. Its true that many ICOs brag about overtaking BTC so read their white paper and look at the project feasibility. I have participated in many projects and they went on good. But they need patience for growth!! Many ICOs are long term projects but some investors want high profits in short term which is sometimes difficult.

Well, some of the ICO's being offered right now is most likely a scam. I think we need to evaluate first before investing our money in ICO. Yes it is sometimes profitable, but not all the time.

I believe so. I have been doing it for quite some time, and so far I have only been disappointed for several times. The point is there is a guarantee that we will definitely earn something. Just disregard the value, be more patient when it comes to the value of tokens. Eventually, we will all earn more than enough than we invested in our efforts.

In General "Picking" an ICO is no different than "picking" an investment. But, you should do more than that....

As with any investment, you should take the time to research the company/idea to get a feel for them and make a decision based on how you view their chances for success are. Every investment has inherent risks, risks you can mitigate through good research.

For ICO, it is not just to have the perfect team with execution track record and of course to have the most disruptive idea that will impact the world, but moreover you should look carefully at their advisory board.

If the advisory board members are not just ones that were picked up along the process, but rather high rank officials from the non crypto world who cares a lot about their reputation and are afraid to be referred to a scam ICO, if those guys are in, it means the company/team/idea is worth looking into them.

I would add that the more advisory board members you have from the old world who highly care about their own reputation, the higher confidence you get about this ICO. so it not just elated to one guy in that advisory board...

Moreover, try to check if the company really cares about the token holder by reflecting true transparency before and after the ICO to make sure this company if the real thing!!

Safe or not depends on the team and the project concept.

may be true but in some countries the participation of ico alt-coin is still profitable and safe

Partly Yes and partly No.
Participating ICOs is safer when you search the good one and if you invest from your own pocket then it must be a tough decision which one and which is better.
There's websites that lists down the good ICOs but my advice is to invest the coins that are already in the market because they're already proven to be useful a d the price is stable and increasing.

yes. if you choose good ICO it is really good..

Exactly, so many ICO projects are there in the surroundings, so better first to do research on them and look for the white paper, then come to the conclusion whether to invest on the ICO's or not, because many scams can happen in ICO beware of such scams.

If you do your research and make a calculated decision then it can be safe participating in ICOs. Investing is always a gamble and finding the right one is always difficult, it may take time.

It is not safe if we will not review the team behind the ICO. We must sure that it is promising for us to avoid scam. There are many ICO's that are scam so it is safe if we will check the background of the team of the ICO.
