There is an adage that says "if we all knew the outcome of investment then we would all be very rich".
It amazes me when I see investors complaining that the price of a project token dropped after listing and they go on to label the project as scam.
The fact is that they have forgotten the risk part of investment, you can't just expect everything to just come out 100% safe without risk. The price drop is the risky part of it, and you have to be willing to cope with that, support the team and wait for them to turn things around. Remember that it is not a ponzi scheme where your money magically increases over night. Patience is key

It's almost useless to talk about this, people are people, let them do what they want and believe in what the want to believe. Better use this knowledge to get rich while everyone around is whining

This is a fact, people want ROI immediately which is wrong ,for you to succeed you need to have patience and wait for what you have invested grow, it could take days - months but it's sure there will be ROI.

Don't you even watch the market right now? Almost all of the people are investing in crypto right now are short term speculators. that means what they are looking for to get a lot of ROI for their investment as fast as possible. Patience is not always the answer and have yous seen those long term holders who have been losing a lot of money? It can be a good thing to be learned.

I support your opinion, people should know what they’re buying and they must change their mindset of becoming instant millionaires. I understand some projects that its not easy on their part to manage the business and every decision is important. It doesn’t mean that the prices fall the project fails, market prices don’t reflect the project status.

People who think that they just have to wait for a coin to be listed and if it increases in value then it is only not a scam. If it drops it is a scam. They want it to instantly yield results.
It has to grow and the project is just been born so be patient. Why is the drop in price a bad thing? Why not take advantage of it by buying in even more? Then the slightest rise will be a big profit since you be able to buy many more times the amount of coins.

You see people only think like a Bull but never a bear.

The basic truth is that, people don't really understand what is meant by investment. A lot of them are just interested in the assumed profits calculated from the ICO or IEO price forgetting that the market price is most likely drop . These kinda investors don't have enough knowledge about investment and the principles of investment.

usually people who are just starting an investment and are also just getting into crypto, so maybe they hear or see an investment in people succeed.
so he joined the investment without doing research first. Finally they entered and don't even know about the project yet, just buy it because other people buy it too, and joined ico scam. But at least it will teach you a lesson.

I really like your points here, most people see crypto as a get rich quick scheme. Most times the market decides whether prices of coins soar or dump after listing, although some team members do dump hence causing massive dip for their coin. We just need to be patient, especially when we believe in the project. Sometimes after dumping when price of a coin goes down, people who buy the dip will rejoice later when it pumps. Investment involves risk, hence we should know our limits of risk taking before delving in.

Investment management needs to be proficient in terms of controlling your emotions towards your actions. Many traders and investors forgot about how to deal with risks. Knowing all the grounds of your investment assets, you'll be able to act according to how you will take advantage.

Never be moved by falling market if you have good understanding of the project's future developments. Stay calm and patiently monitor the progress.

Most find it difficult to cope with their emotions when large amounts of money are at stake. But I agree that anyone who takes this step and do investments in the project, should understand that he risks. And thanks to understanding and patience, he will be rewarded in the future.

Gone are the days that you would invest in a coin and within few hours, that will be a tremendous level of growth. Which happened during the bullish trend. Although, it is also being experienced at some points, even in bear market, but that might not continue all through, because there might be a correction. Meanwhile, it is better to ensure you are investing in a project with viable products, before expecting anything meaningful.

fro the beginning i came here, i never think if this industry is a ponzi scheme my friend
but, maybe some crypto project use a marketing plan from a ponzi scheme, thats why few people will said if this industry just like a ponzi scheme
anyway, you talk about people must support the team and wait, but you must remember people should knew if the team is a good person and want to develop their project seriously mate
so, if the team didn't want to build their project, then what for ? there is no reason to support them and wait with patience buddy

You said the truth the way it is, the fact is most people are yet to understand the nature of the crypto space thus likening it to Ponzi; this is quite true because in time past there were Ponzi schemes ran with cryptocurrencies so most still thinks thats how this space is meant to be. It's high time investors understands that in this crypto space there are various factors which affects price, now if a project is solid, it might dump after listing but will surly pick up as time goes on and this is where the patience of the investors is needed. Anyone who has issues with being patient should stay away from investing and maybe stick to trading.

Actually I don't blame those that have called bitcoin different names all in the name not make profit from their investment. Understanding the rudiments of the game matters a lot, many of these investors jumped into the world of cryptocurrency during the fomo and have not see their yielded profit as speculated. Remember that, 2017 was the best year till now, those who bought then and keep are likely to be those who will complain.

Most people came with the mindset of Ponzi, which is get rich quick as soon as possible, which is why whenever they participate in any project and it takes time to list, they will start complaining. Also, when they invest and the project gets listed and at a lower price they are always quick to judge; this is the reason I hardly tell people which projects to invest but I will be quick to educate the person on the risks involved, thereby having it in mind that patience is needed they will be wise with their Investment choices.

Not quite sure what you are saying over here. How are you comparing the investment and ponzi scheme (like calling it not a ponzi scheme which actually isn't). Even in ponzi scheme you don't get rich over night. There is a chance you will lose all your money to that scheme if you join in alte.
To be honest, people are expecting to become rich over night because this is what they have heard back in 2016/2017. They started to invest in ICO because they saw people making mad profit by investing in those tokens. What they don't realize is that the number of people investing back then was small compared to the number of people that are joining the project. More people are joining those bounty programs and receiving tokens without investment and dumping it as soon as it gets listed on an exchange thus causing the price to drop.

Strongly agree with this thread, every project that has just finished the ICO / IEO period then they need support from us so that the team is able to make the project a decent and feasible project, because the benefits are not obtained instantly, but need a process, if without the development process then that is the Ponzi project.

Much more important than patience is the amount of effort exerted to get to the bottom of the project one is investing. Sometimes, patience is really not paying off well. Many investors are patient but in the end, instead of gaining a little, everything is lost including the starting investment amount. It is because the project they are investing is really not a fundamentally solid project. They are not offering anything new to the market that is why they did not even last long enough to see their products offered to the bigger public. Those investors who are constantly crying and accusing projects as scam are the ones who did not do their share of digging.

Can you please name at least 5 tokens/ICOs where people have made profit after 1 year of holding? If yes, I would love to know those name! We had thousands of ICOs since 2017 so please let me know at least 5 names!

We all understand the risks of investment. But when over 99% of the projects fail in a certain market, it's good to term it as a scam market! At least we will be able to save some innocent people from being duped!

I am not saying that every ICO project is a scam! Probably they have some really great developers, but certainly no one turned out to be a marketing expert! So even after having great products, a lot of projects fail to pick up! And we are no angel investors with billions of dollars waiting to be distributed!

I am sorry if I am sounding negative but I have millions of dead tokens in my accounts which has no/little value in the market.
