Absolutely I agree. I also increase 95% as spam. Projects that are not feasible only want to get invest at ICO. Over the years, all these will be removed from the market. I hope more people don't invest in these shitcoins.

Hi, many people are still complaining how many ICOs ended up as a scam.
The cryptocurrency idea is to create a free worldwide decentralized ecosystem. Free for all, for honest but also for dishonest people. It is free market and you should protect yourself before losing your money. You don´t like it? Then you do not understand crypto.

Many people complains that many ICO's are scams because they have probably experience failure in the ICO's that they participated and invested into. But mostly ICO's that have failed is due to lack of support and lack of money to raise for tge projects. I have seen many ICO's that has a great potential to success but they cannot raised enough money for their projects which lead to failure.

I agree, the main idea/goal of cryptocurrency is decentralization and transparency. As an investor we have the tools to check whether the project is shady or may end up failed in the end. You are responsinble for your own funds, it doesn't matter what the teams project promised to do, you must see and milestones or roadmaps that have been achieved.

Yes you are right here that everybody should think before investing but its very difficult to understand in initial stage that which ICO is good or bad. As a result ICO investor fall in problem when they understood at middle time or last time. To give up this problem now IEO going in every projects. I think investors will happy here.

We hard to find good projects to invest right now. Because most new projects are different types of scams. That's why own research is really important. The IEOs are creating a new era for the projects. But most project's prices are going down after the IEOs. This is a hard thing to decide hodl for long term.

Because there are no regulations, many people make projects, now it's too easy to make coins or tokens that make anyone dream of getting rich because of the project, unfortunately they don't have strong capital so they only expect from ICO.

Agree, there is no government regulation yet, everyone can make tokens without the knowledge of the business world and the world of cryptocurrency and tokens such as pump and dump projects. Investors must be careful in choosing new projects because they can hurt their investment

Nowadays it is getting extremely hard to protect our funds. We need some kind of a third party that would check recent ICOs/STOs/IEOs of their legitimacy to protect investors. Otherwise, people would just give up on investing.

I agree that the idea of cryptocurrency is to facilitate transactions more easily and inexpensively and possibly become a new payment system. But with a scammer, people are afraid to become victims of fraud and this can reduce the confidence of investors. But investors should not need to be afraid because with the right analysis, we will benefit from investing in good projects

I agree that we need to fully study any project before making an investment, but do not forget that many companies simply conduct ICOs to raise money and disappear with money after that, it has always been and continues at the moment, and no one from this is protected, so the risk of investing in an ICO will always be very huge. Now it is best to protect yourself by investing in IEO and not in ICO and then there will be no problems.

There are still good projects for long-term investment, fraud will always be there as long as there are good people.
Investing in crypto is risky but getting advice from experts is needed when we want to buy altcoin in large quantities for the long term, crypto always provides transparency with good blockchain technology but remains vigilant against fraudsters because they are very brave to show themselves on social media with upload their photos

Without any doubt, crypto was created for free market, but don't you think that if almost  every second project that goes live scams people, it is time to think about how we can create a safer place for investors and new people that are interested in crypto?
It is not good statistic but it shows perfectly how free market works. If you don´t like it, you don´t have to participate. People want freedom, but they don´t understand what it really means.

When you say free then expect that everybody is there and every classification of human is free to join regardless of their intention.

It's a fact that many still don't understand what cryptos' really are. To the new ones that thought of it as an investment that will make them rich overnight needs to study more about it. Crypto isn't just all about what they've thought, it's more than that.

A lot of people usually not reach wihtepaper because already influence with something that hyped by the project. In whitepaper of each project usually tell us people if this investment have risk and must ask to professional if we not really sure about it. But what actually happen is, people buy it without know anything that they can't do anything if lose their investment. What they aim is short instant profit.

many people who want to create such an ecosystem, and among them, quite a lot of scammers. we certainly need to choose several projects that are considered to have great potential, and also a professional and clear team. since I went into cryptocurrency, there have been quite a number of scam projects I've seen and quite a few good projects. however, the risk will always be in the world of cryptocurrency, therefore every consideration and decision is in our own hands.

I personally am always responsible for everything I do in the crypto market, if I face a problem about a fraudulent project then I must study harder about the project to avoid the wrong aperture ..
and if I benefit from this project, then I will be more excited to seek broad insights that I don't know yet.

Precaution is better than cure, yet you can still make mistakes but will be different from how newbies choose projects
1. Make sure the project have real working product or asset
2. Promote projects from well known CEO,the hardly turn scam because they aim to keep their reputation alive
3. Don't bother much with whitepaper, instead its better to spend time on the teams, try to understand what they are capable of, i mean professionalism
Great. These are the best ways for those who want to invest in an ICO or an IEO. I myself also love investing in IEO because it is so profitable
