Topic: Postponing ICO, a sign of negative market? - page 5. (Read 785 times)
I think it's a sign of maturity, recognizing that this is not the best time to launch a new project, maybe they felt that their project was not attractive enough to reach the soft cap, so instead of battling against this bear market, the best thing is to try to find the best opportunity to launch your product.
This is not a sign of negative market rather it is because of the Negative market. Crypto market passing a long time bear market, But ICO Projects are coming without any delay! They are not stopping to bring ICOs! Millions of USD has taken by the scammers in this year, that's why many investors are not interested in ICOs anymore. For this reason, good ICOs also can't make enough funds! So, they are postponing or extending their ICO time to fulfill their soft cap! And this thing has happened with Profede!
Just recently PROFEDE has decided to postpone it's ICO.

What are it's implecations? Do you have a similar experience with this one?
It might be probably really because of the negative market behavior this year. projects are choosing to postpone the projects in order to be safe from being negatively affected by the downtrend in the market which is a good idea. Such action would yield for the betterment of the project in general and we users and investors should understand that. https://profede.com/#problem

As for me it is a big red flag. Every single ICO postponed token sale didn't perform high ROI and it seems for me that it is the strongest sign of negative market as well
I think postponing ICO in the long run is a sign of negative market, most likely if the Ico reach soft cap that coin will be listed on several markets. So guys think carefully before investing in ICO.
Maybe they are just not prepared. Market situation is as it is, and 4Q is the best possible time for launching a project. Market situation is tough, but it could stay to be tough for years.
This is not always a sign that the delay due to the fact that they can not raise funds. If the project is really good that he's raising money for a few weeks or even days. And projects that carry may not have calculated the forces
Oh, I participated in many bounty, which was postponed, extended, canceled. It began in January 2018. Now this is a usual occurrence.
I agree, rather yes than not. When the market is in such a state as it is now not quite prudent to conduct ISO. So I think this is the right move from the team.
There is no need of starting an ICO if you won't raise any money from the investors, the number of projects postponing their ICO has increased greatly recently because most are finding it extremely difficult to raise money talkless reaching their softcap. It doesn't make sense for investors to invest into a project and to find out that after listing on exchange you can buy it at half the ICO price
All ICO should start cutting their appetites and hardcaps- regular startups do not need so much money to make a product
Market needs to wake up like it was a year ago before ICO boom

There's absolutely nothing happening in the crypto world that should come off to anyone as a surprise anymore, more like we've seen it all. Projects postponing their ICOs, extending their bounties, ICOs failing and investors getting refunds, etc. All these are a reflection of the condition of the market at the moment, a lot of people are laid back when it comes to investing in projects now. So, this informs why some projects postpone their ICO, as they're afraid they may not hit soft cap
As the market has been in downward trend continuously over the past six months or so, it has been difficult for new ICO projects to collect funds for their business, as investors are reluctant to invest in these projects considering the market situation. That's why, many ICOs have failed and many have postponed.
So many current ICO's only raise a fraction of what they envisioned when the started planning their project. Even highly successful ICO's still only get a little bit over their soft cap, and a handful reached their hard cap this year, and often mostly due to private investors. I think it is a normal reaction to a downwards market. Many people got rekt hard in January/February. I still have ICO's being at over 90% losses, with no real chance of getting back to ICO price anytime soon. I think many ICO's got way too much funding in those months....I mean, why the need for $30m or more to launch a blockchain project...totally unrealistic....a few millions is all you need if it is about building and growing a valid company. Instead, so many projects only show pics of them attaining events (and even parties etc) with almost no real updates on their product....this is a good thing, no start-up should get so much funding.....
All projects want to make money, but it turns out that after the ICO, the price of the token is heavily dump now, so everyone is trying to postpone the ICO.

Yes, when you hear that an ico has been postponed it is not that the teams are not ready but something has gone wrong with the marketing and the developers has sense negative impact on the marketing of the project. Some also postpone ico because of the sentiment that has been created around the project. May be some one has studied the white paper and link out some information that are very vital about the project. I did not no about this profede but I know of many projects that has done that since last year and as at today there are no were to be find. https://profede.com/#problem

Why are you surprised? Now they transfer or postpone every second ICO. This is due to the fact that in a severely fallen market, people do not want to invest, since the cost of Ethereum and bitcoin is very small.
"Postponing ICO, a sign of negative market?"
No, a sign of a weak project. Good projects are still having no problem getting investment. It is weak projects that probably should not be funded in the first place that are struggling. If they are waiting for things to become like this time last year they can forget it. Those days are long gone and never coming back. If you project is struggling it is time to go back to the drawing board and come up with something more compelling for people to invest in.

Funny. Now almost every ICO is postponed or prolonged, and all refer to a negative market situation!
I can't judge whether postponing ICO is a good decision or not. In the first place, we can wait for the market situation to recover to regain investor confidence. On the other hand, there is a chance that the ICO will be abandoned. Everything has its own negative impact. As we all know, attracting investors is not an easy job. This strategy is actually like double edged swords. Instead of growing trust, it actually eliminates interest from investors.
Yes, I was able to participate with an ICO being extended for another 2 months wherein I believe the soft cap has not reached based on timeline. There are situations like this and I think it could be just normal nowadays probably because of the many ICO's emerging in the crypto market and investors were divided. As a result, it could hardly reached the target soft cap goal. I think there is also negative impact as to why some people do not invest in ICO anymore perhaps these investors could have been scammed from their previous ICO investment.
