I definitely in agreement with your position! When any project gives bonus recklessly what they are saying in essence is that they do not value their tokens! It is easy to identify ICO with sole aim of raising cash!  They are usually desperate to sell their token at investor's expense. Such ICO are good for nothing!

It depends. Some ICO gives big bonus like 100% but they are still good company. One of them is like blockmason which gives 100% bonus. This definitely has raised some concern by the community and that is why the token ICO sale is not progressing fast. However, i am actually very surprised that CEO michael took the extra step to reach out to people and gain their trust so that investors are willing to put in money to invest in them and complete the token sale. So far, blockmason has been delivering their promises.

Electroneum raises every day. Got any bounty in this project?
But I still try to diversificate risks and invest into different projects with stable product such as Cryptopay, lockchain, papyrus, wepower and Confideal these are all ICO’s I personally believe in...

Pre-ICO bonuses are are good marketing tool for grabbing more money and I understand it, but the drawback is that early buyers like very much to dump the coins they've got with a 30% discount to realize a 10-20% profit - and latebuyers get screwed...

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?

I've just found out a very promising one.

It seems like they've got a great potential of their tokens, also because they're gonna create a wide marketplace ecosystem for a visual content. That's cool! Just started reading their whitepaper, will see how it goes


That's really cool! It looks like you could have good bonuses if you invest early. Did you see their bounty campaigns? https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bountyar-artoken-by-cappasity-extending-the-arvr-double-stakes-2141145

I've never thought about it, but actually, it's a great idea to earn some tokens even before the ICO start
I also haven't but want to try! 


Do you know, that this ICO has just started? Check it out https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ico-sale-ar-artoken-by-cappasity-decentralized-arvr-ecosystem-for-3d-2316185
Are you going to participate?

I know!!! I'm so excited! And I'm in!!!  Wink Wink Wink Wink    Cool  Since I've tried their  3D scan, I really believe the project will be successful!

If the bonus is for investors, I think it would not dump the price because they buy it to hold for some time then sell. But if  the bonus is for campaign materials like signature campaign, blogging, social media etc., I think it would dump the price because most of them do it for instant money, I mean they want something that will pay their work immediately

I agree with you. The way to solve this is to have a long vesting period for the bonusses. 12 months to 18 months would work.

That way the people investing are not speculators but real investors.

It's true, lately they are giving lots of bonuses and the first thing they do is sell!
Usually because the flip is what most people are after. But they will stop selling when they see something can increase in value as much as Bitcoin and then some.

Yes bonuses increase ico demand but on other hand extra bonuses effect extra load of liability at same time which can create negative impact also , so always check there growth percentage while moving in with new ico , percentage should be at reasonable which should match market scenario  affordable according to project and white paper

BelugaPay proposes a bonus for those who want take part in pre-sale. 20% of tokens are given. It starts in November and lasts for 30 days. If investor want to contribute earlier, BelugaPay provides a private pre-sale before official pre-ICO. You have opportunity to write to the team members directly and get BBI tokens. The minimum investment is 3 ETH.

This is a really easy way to attract investors but I think that there is a limit of what Icos can offer as Bonus, because it's like you say that some icos are offering 100% bonus and that doesnt make sense...
I agree here - no sense to offer 100% - that sounds silly
However 40-50% bonuses at the sale start should work - it will stimulate early investors to make decisions faster and not procrastinate - then those investments can be spent on attracting slow-thinkers ( risk awerse)  Wink

What about airdrops??? Can someone advise if that is something projects should consider and what is the value?
I only join airdrops I consider worth it. I make a quick search to look it on exchanges first, even if it's the worst exchange so I can make a quick buck and that's it. But there are some good projects actually that you may consider getting an airdrop or bounty reward like Postoken. They are doing a great airdrop and are listed on ED already, next round finishes 29th october so take a look at that, you might enjoy it! About what you said with bonus, I think 40%-50% is still high for a Ico sale depending on the quantity that is available. Bonuses can ruin a project if it's not very well managed.

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?
I don't consider the ICO bonuses to be fair to all the investors. As a matter of fact, I don't side with any ICO unless there is a feature that I want to try out.

A good bonus should be something between 10% and 15% , that is showing that you want to call people to your project but at the same time you are being fair with your bonuses. Another thing that I don't like is the bounties paid, some people get more tokens from bounties than the bonuses offered.

I don't think so Bonus is  bed idea for Pre-ICO or ICO. It must be maintain for project.Because some time it's rally big affect for Project and market price.

100% or 50% Bonus for pre ico it's not bed idea because Pre-ico not stay for long time. It's Jsut offer for some time and earlier Investor. but ICO bones will be maintain between 20% to 30%.

Thank You

OP is right. Alot of these icos are greedy and dont give a fk for the general people that invest in their projects. They do give special bonuses or discounts to bigger whales or groups, which is unfair for us smaller investors.
Something like cobinhood giving these big whales or investment groups 150% bonuses? Thats just sickening.
But if an ico give bonuses to early investors big and small, that would be fair. Not just to special bonuses to these big investors. That would level the playing field for everyone. Because every investor is treated fairly.

I rather don't invest in ICOs offering huge pre-sale discounts (40%+) Because whales and big investors dumping almost always. Better for them to sell in regular ICO price if they got like 50% bonus then wait till it hit exchanges etc. That whales flips really interrupting growth of some projects Sad

Even Request Network which is great imo and had only like 25% presele bonus is now trading for 0,00018 and the ICO price was 0,0002 ETH. Presale was like 0,00016 ETH

Well i gotta agree that the bonus is somehow good for Pre ICO investors as they bring confidence to people showing that this project is invest-able

However, ICO with 100% bonus is too over, although we have seen project like ARK, which offers up to 50% extra if you pay with Lisk.

Although it may sound very very bad for people invest with 0%, but look at ARK. they are so successful

So Pre ICO  Bonus is acceptable and Bonus ICO is okayish as long as it is reasonable
