Been seeing projects' Telegram groups blow up and I think that's an attribute of success. Personally, when I find a project, I do judge them by their social media presence. How active a telegram channel does say a lot with their demand.

With the rise of groups exceeding Telegram's 50k member cap...what do you guys think?

Telegram helps a lot in promoting ICO to their investors. It's a way to ask about the project directly to the developer and it gives assurance to the investors that they are legit and not a scammers. So, a lively and interactive telegram can attract investors to participate and be part of their project.

May be a big group on Telegram could be a sign of potential success, but it so simple to fake this number that it's not a good idea to make Telegram grup the only parameter of evaluation.
So, in the meanwhile that a small group is a clear sign of a failure, a big group doesn't mean necessarily a success.
Take care.

Well, ICO's success is also due to its participants and the community involved on it. So as to have effective communication for announcements and updates about the ICOs, Telegram has always been the messaging medium that is widely used now.
Yes, it is very convenient to have a permanent connection with the ICO project team through the group in the telegram. If you get quick and clear answers to your questions, as well as all the latest information about the project, it makes you trust the project more.  Wink

I think Telegram is just one of the many medium in advertising ICO. It helps in any way that a project would have lot of members in it's Telegram group. It's is only a spice to make a project successful. I also think that Facebook would play a greater role in ICO future because through that many people would know about your project. Just my opinion.

Its not the only factor which make the project success but there are other factors too.
In other case, its true that more people is in telegram channel tell us how the project gain attention from people. Its similar like demand also very high.
Since having telegram now is an ease on having transactions, we cam easily disscussed topics there and creates a questions and answer portion, it will eventually helps us to know what we want to do.

Telegram is not the basis of the success of the ICO it is depends on the marketing strategy that they use. timing is also important as we know that  the market is very volatile and   Bitcoin and Ethereum has an important role in ICO if you use it as a medium for payment.

In theory a good number of members in the Telegram group of an ICO should be a good indicator of its potential of success, but - knowing this - it's very simple to fake this number.
Actually, you can buy thousands and thousands of fake members in the same way you can buy likes on facebook, just to make people believe how popular you are.
Of course, this is not necessarily true, and may be the members are real, but I didn't take a big telegram group as the only measure of success of an ICO.

yes, I always judge a project will be successful or not from the number of followers in social media, one of them is telegram, the more interaction between potential investors and developers will be better, this could be one reference to success or failure of a project.

I agree. A telegram group is useful only if it is very small, max 40/50 people, or if it acts as a kind of newsletter, where only the owner can post just to announce important news.
Otherwise it's just a chaotic flow of messages absolutely meanigless.

For me telegram utility is a mistery: I'm in some groups, where there are hundreds or thousands messages daily, and of course you can't read them all.
So, I suspect that - to have a big telegram group - is just a way for an ICO to show its power, without any real benefit.

To an extent, telegram is the major determinant of a project success. For example now, an active telegram group with a large number of members shows how good the project with their marketing strategy. Also the activities and interaction happening in the group shows how active the project community is. An active project community tends to do well. To me it's a major determinant of a project success.
Most ICOs use Telegram as a channel to interact with their communities.I think,Telegram becomes popular as the estimator tool of choice for the traders.Telegram is set to run the largest token sale in the history of ICOs. Industry players note that should this ICO succeed, it will send a strong message about the potential of blockchain technology.For that telegram,in my personal opinion is the new measurement of an ICO project success.
Have they announced further information about the tokensale or its still speculations?  If the ICO is true it will definitely be successful as it will sell out in a couple of minutes. Telegram is already a great platform and a lot of people will like to buy into the tokensale if they eventually decide to launch it.

Yes, telegrams are very popular in the field of crypto-currency. It is said that the creator of the telegram wants to hold its ICO, will issue a TON crypto currency, which will push VISA out of the market.

I do the same. A few years ago, many ICOs used slack or discord as their social media. But now, I can say Telegram member become the new standard to judge some ICO.
That's the fact. I joined some ICO with low telegram member group, and finally that ico returns to failed.

Well telegram has a role to play, although i have seen some projects with massive telegram followers or community members, but ICO was a mess... also there are some other ICOs with projects which are by the way very solid projects with smaller telegram community members, but turn out to have very successful ICO and ultimately very good performing token in the market.
so telegram is not necessarily the only measure of ICO success.

Can't agree. It's maybe one criterion out of hundreds, but that's it. ICOs that are complete scams may have a huge group in Telegram but it's useless. On the contrary, such Telegram groups indicate how flexible the team is and that its members are ready for communication.
Yes, this is another factor by which one can assess the future success of the ICO. It is important not how large a group and how much there is a lot of spam, it is important that the group was discussing real questions about the project.

The telegraph had a great influence on ICO.

Some projects are funded by signing up to join the telegraph group to get tokens!

This increased the number of telegraph groups in the short term!

With a certain number of people, administrators can promote their projects in the telegraph group!
