That is why scammers are a major problem in the development of ICO/IEO, unlike in early 2017 where such incidents are rarely found and developments in that year are very good. Increasingly here more and more are easy making tokens of use scaming on behalf of the ICO project, as you say it is difficult to reclaim investment and imprison these fraudsters because the cryptocurrency does not yet have strong evidence to do so, even though the transaction or digital footprint will always there but without identity information it will be difficult to do it.

That is why many thinks centralization and regulation will bring much sanity into the system. Many people have lost thousands to millions of dollars for good with their bad deed been investing in a project or ICO.

And what about the investment market of securities is not who has not lost money. And investment in real estate. And other areas of investment. Yes, any business built on credit is an investment. So now this difficult dangerous game is complaining.
I think there are scammers all around and this thing could not be eliminated in the presence of internet. Scammers are actually the guys with lots of expertise so they can easily deceive a man having no knowledge about something he wants to invest in.

This is what happened with so many ICOs in which people put in their money due to the hype these scammers would create on internet and hence lost their money.


If government regulate ICOs, i am believe scam ICOs can be eliminated. People would scam others because they know that law can not touch them as long there is no regulation about ICOs.

I think this is the reason why there are few people investing crypto because of the scammers. They are running freely, and they get not caught. I think because there is no enough program to captivate them. As an investors we should be careful.
Agree, in any business there must be scammers who take advantage of themselves.
The important thing is to remain careful and never visit any phising website or installing any third party software that doesn't have license.

The development of security on Cryptocurrency began to appear. I remain optimistic that the previous experience of negative cases with the ICO will provide new ideas and rapid developments towards the elimination of scammers.

This was the main problem why the image of the ICO became bad in the sight of many community here in the forum.
And why IEO became better than ICO according to what I had observed about it. That's why even I'm not in favor of regulations
on crypto, despite our coins will get steal by the scammer, I think it will be fine for me to implement that things.

yes but it is really upsetting to admit that still there are some scammers who are running freely, scammers are making bad image of crypto in eyes of new investors but I think it is not good to think bad about the market only because of some people who actually wants to spoil the market environment, we should only be careful and don’t trust anyone, use blockchain as wallet to keep your investment safe.
That's right, we never think it in general and appreciate the market instead,  even though some of us are destroying our market reputation.
It surely they won't get free for long and someday they'll be caught and even pay for their doings.
It serves as a mirror to all of us and keeping a good image of crypto will be our priority rather than scam others.

There will be always risk since the whole cryptocurrencies are financial things. Your friends can just buy bitcoin, instead of joining ICO
but there is a possibility that people who are now joining the ICO will earn much more money than if they simply buy Bitcoin. that's why diversification exists

I am a citizen of Belarus, and our president would not tolerate the development of such fraudulent schemes, which have long been unpunished. I think that he would quickly find a way to prevent it and punish it to the fullest extent of the law!)

Once again, the problem in the regulation of crypto currencies. And this, as you know, is an ambiguous problem. On the one hand, regulation will help control fraudulent actions, but on the other hand, all actions of ordinary people will also be under control, which in itself already violates the idea of cryptocurrency (namely Bitcoin). Therein lies the problem - to find a balance between all these nuances.

Financial fraud existed and will exist. Only the principles change, but the essence always remains, and it does not matter whether it is crypto or fiat. And doubts about investing are largely justified, the risk of loss increases in proportion to profits.

Scammers are everywhere and we cant stop them but we can prevent and fight against those,we can stop them if we dont promote and we dont invest on the projects they run and we always make research in any projects that we want to invest.So if you are looking for a good and legit project try to have reviews in this project Xeonbit.

Yes, this is why we need regulatory measures in the crypto world because the industry is full of scammers and they just run away with ICO funds. I think once these regulations are put in place, ICO investors will be in safe hands.

Actually that is correct. Although on some countries some were already arrested but that is something we should always hope that the authority can do something about. Why? Its hurting to see that youre funds are being enjoy by people who easily get it through hacking and scamming. I guess thats what you called decentralized. That is the part I want to change even means beig regulated. Im more concern to citizen being fooled.

Strict regulations must be made immediately to protect investors. As investors, of course, they want to profit and not lose money because of fraud. As long as this Crypto still does not have very good security, it is better to remain careful in determining the project. But I won't get out of Crypto because I'm sure if we are smarter and more careful we can make a profit.

scammers are one of the biggest obstacles to crypto growth, and this year more ico are scams. this is sad
I think regulation must exist and be supported by the state that legalizes it.
well, be careful if you want to invest in ico, because there are many ways scammers can manipulate to attract investors.

I believe that the scammers will still be going Scott free as far as there is no rules and regulations biding ICO. And with this I believe no one will ready to invest in ICO again, with time ICO will become past.

I think this is like with internet projects. Every year there will only be more of them, so don’t think that this way of investing will simply leave this market. Even though poston deception.

The way out of this situation will be to confirm the quality of the projects. All that will need to release a prototype product. What will give investors the opportunity to invest in further development. You can transfer ready-made platforms to Blochchine such as FB.
