Right so the ICO craze this year was ridiculous.

Let's not forget her Gmail got hacked and she publicly tweeted at Google and her followers asking them to help her recover it. What could possibly go wrong?Huh

From very beginning this ICO is weak in campaign and investing funds that maybe they could not even hire an IT experts to protect their system and i think this ICO is like of those existing coins for today that was crap and destined to fail because lack of funds in which they are just hoping that many will invest to make their ICO gain big against their low budget.

Hopefully someone will put together a fairly comprehensive list for 2017--the year of the ICO. It will be very interesting to see how many of those projects are still around in 1-5 years. Most of the talking heads seem to anticipate a roughly 90% failure rate. That seems about right.

In all honesty, 90% failure rate seems an underestimation still.  Smiley

This is going to be an interesting trend. I don't have a personal favorite ICO flop but I'm interested in what others have to say. The question I have is what makes an ICO the worst for you? Being disorganized, being hacked, not able to raise the projected amount of funds??
Surely number 1 criteria to be qualified for worst ICO is deliberately scamming people from the very beginning.

I'm also curious what people think will constitute the "worst". I suppose I would be looking at one that got away with "stealing" the most money. Or maybe one that raised a ton of capital and used it in the worst way possible. Guess this could go a few ways. I haven't personally got involved with many ICO's at all but I'd like to see some fail stories.

Surely you can add Onecoin to the list, a good lesson for everyone, scamming people is not that hard at all.
