Giving a bonus when pre ico is a good strategy, where the strategy is enough to make the project a success. Do not be surprised if a lot of projects that compete give very big bonus when doing pre-ico or ico take place.

I think it is a decent strategy as long as the % is reasonable. Just bought some Bankera today and got a cool 20% bonus. Sometimes pays to be punctual to these ICO's!

yes, bonus is one strategy for ico to succeed, high bonus will attract many investors.
And not all ico who give 100% bonus will discard some coin after ico success and cause low rate.

Giving 100% bonus is not necessary, it sometimes enough to have some or half of it, Half will already attract investors especially if the project provides a special threatment to the early investors.

I think Bonuses are good as a marketing step
Then if product/service is great, the price will raise anyway

yes I really agree with your opinion, something excessive is usually less good, as investors do not expect to be 100% if in the end the results are just useless, we better hope a reasonable profit between less than 40% profit is enough for I.

I think in some ICOs, they give participants big bonuses because there is no any other feature which attracts investors. Such ICOs with big bonuses fail.
For those ICO offering bonuses is not a bad idea at all. This a marketing strategy to attract more investors in their ICO project. Maybe an investors should make some research before investing their hard earned money.

what to look at is not the ICO bonuses, that is important thou,but the core is the whitepaper and the team of professionals executing the project, checked out there  track record ,there success story, and don't be eager to invest when the  ICO bonuses is over 60%,that  is definately a red flag to failure.

foodcoin.io had a great multiplier bonus of 1.35 and 1.7 . Does anyone know of any others coming up in the short term?

Hi

In most of ICOs, investors can get some bonuses, if they invest sooner. In my opinion these bonuses not only don't cause the ICO to be successful, but also cause the ICO to fail. In some ICOs there is up to 100% bonus.

If I see that there are some people have gotten 100% bonus in pre-ICO, I don't invest in that ICO, Because they will dump their coins after crowdsale and cause the price to fall.
 Do you agree with me? What are your opinions?
100% pre-sale bonuse and that was obviously a scam project. I can say not all of the ico that already offered the pre-sale bonus was including in the dump project. But you must remember to not buy bitscam india. Just like another scam (ethplus scam project).

You can see some project that already offered ability to buy in the pre-sale and their investors still get a decent profit.

I think the bonus is a good way to give an incentive to invest on an ICO. Also, is a marketing technique to have attention and attract more potential investors!

Always good to double check, a high percentage is always too good to be true Wink. So better to check twice and do some due diligence before investing your hard earned money!

This is not right. Early birds should be rewarded and this causes more people to get into the action. Without bonuses, the promotin of the project would be failed and this actually would cause a real FAIL.

I always try now to look for a good project with a nice PRE ICO bonus. I invested in one nice project because it has a functioning business and TAAS invested 250k USD there so i took the chance to invest in the PRE ICO and collect a 43% discount on normal rate which will be in the ICO.
Can you tell me what project that was?
Do you know similar projects that have a PRE ICO soon?

prices usually dip when a token is listed on the exchanges no matter how much bonus an early investors got. what better thing to do is not to invest but just buy on the exchanges when its price dip. this is when its going to be cheaper and at the same time you avoided getting scammed by a team who won't even try getting their token listed.

If a presale was given to big investors and you weren't part of it, theres a chance that you could get burned, their presale price is probably way better than yours, they could dump and make a profit and still sell under your buy in price.

I also think that pre-ICO bonuses over 40% are too high and raise a red flag, but sometimes even an ICO that is 2x the pre-ICO price can be a very good investment. Sure buying at pre-ICO price would be better, but if it is a solid project with a good use case, a great team, a working prototype and a reasonable market cap it can be worth it.

Looking back, there are plenty of tokens out there that would be amazing investments if bought at 2x ICO price Grin

I think that the increased bonuses is a marketing trick which makes the ICO pleasing to the eye and are given to attract more investors, but the success of the ICO does not solely rely on it. Perhaps yes it may be detrimental to the ICO success but there are a lot more factors to it. But I agree with you that giving too high percentage of bonus is too much, a 100% pre-ICO is even crazy.
