You have presented the reason behind the failure in a analytical way. There is however another fact which is the down market. Now the market is down and investors are leaving any project that shows even a hint of loss. As a result a lot of projects with potential is failing.

Yes they are some of the reasons behind the failure. Also non delivery of the final working product, inexperienced developers team, lack of promotion and marketing are the reasons. And in some cases the developer team themselves abandons the project.

We can't deny that and all you said were all correct.

Most of ICOs really going to fail and they have a domino effect. Investors are learning too on how to survive on this market, investments are too volatile and ICOs that are shady should be avoided.
All of the things that already mentioned by OP are correct. Remember there was another reason that gives a huge impact to the ico price. most of them are offering a lot of bonus to the pre-sale investors. It looks not fair to see the pre-sale gets up tp 50% and then the sale participants get 5% bonus. it's around 10x

ICOs are failing because investors are paying way too much for the tokens although the value of the tokens is not so much.

ICOs are failing are failing because of all the reasons you've stated and the fact that investors are becoming increasingly critical of projects. Many are no longer following the hype behind ICOs, nor are they falling for populated ICO telegram groups with falsified figures. So the fear of losing even further is making a lot of ICOs dead upon arrival.

2. Long-term value. It needs to have a strong use case. Most ICOs, STOs and Altcoins lack strong solution to real problems. Most are created as vehicles for fundings rather than utility tokens.
-
3. Economics or "tokenomics" are not properly designed such as circulation model or how to burn tokens properly.
This two reasons are very important, a created token is supposed to solve at least one real life problem, but that has not been the case. But there may not always be need to burn tokens. Take note of this.

In my understanding, most of the ICO's were just concentrated more on the token pre sale goal and roadmap right after the pre sale was out of time. Not being able to meet the softcap will result to another extended pre token sale due to poor marketing from the team members. Less people had been eager to join the bounty campaign where it lack some good features of the project platform which has a negative impact to the project.

One of the main reasons is of course poor market conditions as well. I have seen many good projects fail, because they didn't get the funding and more importantly, they couldn't afford aggresive marketing campaigns like the big guys can, who don't have a problem getting funded.

Chances are high that it has something to do with the negative market behavior this year. The negative situation on the cryptomarket might be negatively affecting and influencing the outcome of the ICO projects no matter how huge the potential is. The proof to this are those projects which are postponing their crowdsale in order to avoid the negativity in the market. Let's just hope that things will be again better soon.

I think many ICOs are failing because they collect too much money so the team loses motivation to develop the project. They spend raised money and are lazy to make the product.

I do not think that most of the icos are failing rather i would say that funds raising has become difficult and that is because of bears in the overall market, investors are not making any profit from previous investments so simply they are not investing in new projects at the moment.

I think there are dozens of icos that seem to be copying the concept of other projects, so they are failing because there is no real need or space of similar projects in the market at the moment, for success the ico should present a unique idea, competent team and a project with real use cases.

That's right, all of these are  reasons for the failing.

There are other ico that invest a lot in hype, try to appear they are going to make a lot of partnerships, and the Price goes up. Then later it just fail spectacularly.

In my experience, most of ico are just pump and dump... Of course there are many legit projects, but they are very few

agree with you. also most of projects do not have any working product so the investors do not give much attention to them. even i have seen icos with working product but they failed because of lack of marketing

More and more cryptocurrencies are popping up. However, most of them are bound to fail for some of the reasons stated here.
-
1. Bad User Interface and User Experience. Tokens and other forms of altcoins hinder purchases and do not enable a hassle-free method for usability. It some cases, more resources are required to learn and use tokens.
-
2. Long-term value. It needs to have a strong use case. Most ICOs, STOs and Altcoins lack strong solution to real problems. Most are created as vehicles for fundings rather than utility tokens.
-
3. Economics or "tokenomics" are not properly designed such as circulation model or how to burn tokens properly.
