Nobody can tell you. Some will make you money, some will not, some are run by scammers some are not, and even if they are legit they might not make you any profit.

i think its safe but you know every ico is not good their have many scam ico, many people gain after invest in ico's.  so just research before invest ico.

research is a must if you want to invest in ico, because no one can guarantee an ico will run smoothly and not a scam. we must be very selective in this way

It is my first time joining ICO so I still don't have enough knowledge about ICO's that are existing here. Like you,I am also wondering before if it is safe to participate, so before joining, I do some research and asked my friends who knows well. I found out that it really depends on the ICO,some companies are total scammers. So I suggest,before joining ICO you have to be selective before investing your money.
Whether your investment is going to give you profits or not is going to depend entirely on the ico in which you invest this is why investing in icos is such a black and white endeavor, you can lose your money or you can become rich with your investment.

Investing is not a safe business to start with. ICOs have been notoriously filled with scams also. With lots of ICOs offering the moon but with no products to back them up, just some half-baked ideas.
Beauty of it though is it a crowdfunding event wherein people can bet some small amount they have for immediate returns.

Just to minimize the risk of being scammed, please practice due diligence first and research extensively on the ICOs you will be participating.

First rule in investing is never lose money.
Second is remember first rule.
We can now eliminate some ICO's which run for your many and then run again with your money,
theres a KYC now which an ICO have will result on more crowdsale, this KYC is one of the best thing for ICO now you better look for it before investing .
its been a year and so many ICO are runing with investors money so beware!

In my opinion, it is safe if you know who the campaign manager is, the team behind it, investors or people who support it, and many others. Before you trust ICO, there are many factors. Thus, the key must be more observant, knowledgeable and wise.

Of course, there is always a risk of losing your investment. But there is also a considerable opportunity to multiply them. Who does not take risks ...

Participate in ICO is a big risk, which must be reduced to zero. We need to study projects, white papers, road maps and other documents. You also need to check the team's work experience, project registration and more. This is a very difficult job.

need research and investigation to see which ico will have a good chance. I think this should be accompanied by all stages, from researching looking at the roadmap. assess team and dev. and most importantly tokens that have the technology and benefits of the future.

All ICOs you participate should be verified through whitepaper all sources of information including special online consulting agencies. I have heard about this kind if services for investors. Never use it yet.

No, because there is simply no transparency in the way these tokens are distributed.

I think we can not understand which ico projects are safe for investment, so we should always take this risk and carefully research before investing in this ico, everything is too big is always dangerous, so you have to take these risks to get a chance to become rich.

It good to participate in ICO but not all ICO are safe because the online theft/scammer are using the ICO level to stole from people and before investing or participate into any ICO you must do your own investigation. However, Graft Credit Card and Payment Processor is a good to go ICO and it will be nice if you guys could invest before they get listed on exchange for a better chance of 5x,10x or more profit.

I think with any investment is it never 100% as you don't know the ongoings in the company.

The most important is to be smart and research a lot. Know what they are trying to and how.

Right now there are many ICOs coming out, is it really safe to participate in any of it and spend that much? In participating ICOs I have high hopes that these coins could be the next Bitcoin or other currencies that are really going up in the market.
It is safe to participate in ico but whether the ico you invested into is a good one or not is a different matter. It's easy to join ico, just send ether from myetherwallet and you are good to go but it's hard to participate in ico which give you tokens with good value.
