You still can get token from failed ICO, actually the project success if that token can reach target price after that token listed on Exchange.

Yeah I've wondered this same thing as well. What determines a successful ICO? Did the platform/coin do what the project set out to do, or did the token/coin achieve a return for the investors? What's more important. I like to think the product should succeed but many people don't care...as long as they make a profit on their investment. This is the way of the world and open markets i guess.

If you got token from the bounty it means maybe the ICO was successful to reach their goal or funds or maybe they only left few tokens not sold but it considered successful also. But if the ICO not successful they have big chances that you not get your token stake because maybe the founder did not pay participants. The bounty is depends also to the ICO.

Receiving tokens from ICO doesn't indicate that the project is legit. You should be careful at this point, wait for at-least the project launches publicly whatever they are offering in products or service, wait for good exchange listing to be sure it will sustain.

I think there are also risky tokens but before you buy a token you should first check to not enjoy your money on buying a coin but not all tokens are risky with tokens also with potential and it can hold it's time to earn a lot of money so before joining the ico and buy check it first

Just as the entire crypto space is volatile, same goes for everything that surrounds it. Tokens purchase;especially one gotten during an ICO has many uncertainties round even when the project record success. Who knows, it can definitely fail later if the sustainability plan isn't there for it to go all the way into the future we are all expecting for the entire blockchain technology.

Receiving token in your wallet does not always mean that a platform is working, I can easily create token and send to any address that doesn't mean that I have a working platform...ability to create token easily is one of the cons of the cryptoworld.

The risk of the token is that they die and are not traded at reputable and quality trading locations. As I see many coins at the end of the ICO campaign, they can not survive anymore and fall apart.

Any investment in any coin is already a risk and there is no difference whether you invest in an ICO or just buy a coin on the stock exchange. Be careful and study the coin before purchasing.

From which I experienced the ICO project run from a long time interval when the distribution of tokens for investors, you can see every roadmap created by the developer. when I get a token either from bounty or as an investor means the project is still in the raw stage, because as I said above a project takes a long time to run and we also still do not know if this project failed.

ICO project is long time and short time project. So that is no mate. Project is important. So before invest choose the best ICO project. It good opportunity for future saving. Best project token price is day by day increase. ICO token is jackpat. So you get more profit. But before sell the token check the market price. Then sell it. People learn the more information from ICO project. It help to get the project work. Lean the project then easy to choose the best project.

There were tokens that were distributed but the team also run away with the money they received from the investors. This is somehow giving their investors some hope. Lately I have seen the thread BitCAD again, they send thier tokens to the investors but never have the team do anything except blog posts of updates. Some scam even list the token on centralize exchanges take ETHD for example.

There are many scam ICOs that distribute the tokens on time without any delay. Because there are no project and there in no need to spend time on projects development. Token distribution is the only thing they can do and they distribute that valueless tokens easily.

They do it to fool people's thoughts. Most people will think these projects are reputable and safe, then we will invite friends and relatives to join in these projects, but that's just the way they fool us.

The presence of tokens on the wallet is just numbers, as long as the project is not traded on the exchange. Adding tokens to the exchange costs money and the team must agree on this in advance. This largely depends on the project fees during the ICO.

The risk in keeping your token from your investment is that the value of your token might halved and that is the normal business risk! Business terrain is tough and this reality apply to cryptocurrency as well. If you hold your token to maturity however, you will definitely make profit at the end!

Both. If you get tokens from failed ICO projects, there are possibilities that you can't sell it because they cannot put it in the exchange site. But if you can get a tokens on successful ICO projects it's a good opportunity to earn triple of your investment. All investment is risky. It's up to you on how you will deal with it.

Even a 5 years old project can still tank - because the members decided to prolong the scam to maximize profits or any other reason that might make the project to fail. You should understand you are investing in a business idea - and 7 out of 10 business fail in 10 years. Bitconnect is a good example of a failed top 10 project that is more than a year old with a working product.

This is good to keep in mind. When investing in an ICO you are funding a new business. Even if they have the best of intentions with the project and everything seems legitimate, there are many factors that will decide if it fails or succeeds. Even the time it takes to complete a working platform, the business environment may have completely changed in an unforeseen way. All ICOs are risky...only invest what you can afford to lose.

We can get token from ico project bu we have looking for how much their token on ico price, will be our opportunity to sell or hold it. We have know how much their ico price still highest or lower, if price more higher than ico price we can sell our token from ico, but if the same with ico price you prefer to sell it because maybe their ico was scam and price will be down and hard to reached on highest price.

ICO projects can literally fail at any point. I mean there are times when we could say surely that if we have gotten the coins then we are actually on the verge of success. But with the recent ICO scams it is explored that ICO's can scam us at any point like when they get listed over an exchanger and they start to dump the coins that they are holding and leading to the dumped market. They take the money and shut the project after that. Thus it is not guarantee that we are hitting the successful ICO here but it is just one step forward that we are on to something.

It does not always end up with them closing a project. Sometimes they continue on with it with their false promises and while people still support them, they continue on operating even when it is nothing but a cheap shit token. I actually don't like the idea that there are so many people and many investors that are willing to run and support ICOs. I mean, there must be some other way to raise fund ICO is too risky and I'm afraid that the bounty they offer and the participants only support their scams.

If you have already obtained ico tokens, then at the last moment, many rubbish items are often sold in a short period of time after the money is sent, resulting in a sharp drop in prices. And now ico is a currency issue, but no one will manage it later, but it is a loss.

Yes, I agree. There are actually coins that are giving their bounty tokens but are not that successful since most of it were not in the exchange sites. However, there are some tokens that are already on the exchange sites but the trading seems to be slow moving.

It's different situation if there are coins that are already on the exchanges and if their volume isn't that much it only means that coin isn't so popular. They succeed by listing their token on exchange but to get more traders stay with their token is quite hard for them. So there are two types of failures.
1. Fail to accomplish soft cap and hard cap.
2. Fail to increase the volume of that token on exchanges which leads it to 0 volume which considers also a dead coin.

If you are doing bounty program, there are 2 main options at the end of it:

1. The ICO is done, you will get your tokens within a short time.

2: It is a scam project and the people behind that will steal the invested money..There won't be any tokens, profit.

Even though if the project wasn't a scam one, your tokens can loose their value. Because the ICO isn't equal to the success of the company behind the ICO.
It can fall after the ICO, but it can be profitable too.. its almost 50-50% . It depends on the managers behind the ICO, on the idea, on the investors etc..

So if you are not sure about the future of the ICO, sell your tokens.

There's still a chance that the project will fail through time even after ICO. One of the reason is that the lack of support coming from the community or the team behind the project sucks that the project can't progress. So in choosing an ICO to support be sure to check for that factors, anyway I suggest to research about menlo.one its an ICO that currently I'm supporting.

ICOs or Initial Coin Offerings are similar to what are IPOs or Initial Public Offerings for the stock market but way less under control or regulated.

Both are trying to do the same thing - gather funds for their idea or product to be put into practice. This does not mean that idea/product will succeed of course, it's more like a gamble than anything else.

You need to make sure you're investing in the correct one by researching about the idea/product and making sure it has some percentage of success that you're comfortable with.

You get tokens by either buying with your money during the ICO sales or you get it by participating in the airdrops or bounties. Whichever way, getting the tokens in your wallet is not a guarantee that the project is a success or already worked. It can still turn out to be a failed or abandoned project later.

Basically token means an asset, failed can create its own smartcontract through the ethereum network. You can still get the token from failed project but it has no value compared to the successful project.
Some times there is an undervalued token from failed project can worth a lot because it was starting the development process.

Even if the ICO were not successful they send you payments with a form of tokens,they can make another public sale after the presale,they can raised funds on that way.Theres always a possibility that even if ICOs were not successful they can send tokens to bounty hunters as the reward.If developers were dedicated in their job,they will let their projects grow and possibilities would be list in some exchangers.

Not just a token that has a risk, all coins also have risks. Many failed ico projects that resulted in token prices after ico fell drastically, even well below the price of the coin ico. Did not rule out there is also a token that deliberately created for fraudulent purposes. But there are many projects that really give big advantage. Because of so many risks, it must be more selective again in the selection of projects for investment.

Unfortunately, you can get tokens from a scam project. Getting tokens from ICOs do not denote their success and do not also guarantee earnings from the project. They are called shit coins.

Failure of tokens might be classified into different matter. Failed where tokens didn't hit up on exchangers or simply means it doesn't have any value. Next one would be , failed ones where the coins did able to hit exchanges but it end up on dumping into its death due to lack or absence of updates towards the project or just the dev just ran out the money and didn't tend to proceed on what he had promised into its investors when it was just starting up.

I think we need to apply the basic rules of investment like 'never put all your eggs in the same basket' and 'never invest more than you can afford to loose'
These two basic rules must be considered by each individual investor before he/she invests in a certain coin/token or asset.

If you get tokens on ICO, that means the ICO project has already worked ? Or you can still get tokens from failed projects ?

everyone can create their own token , but this doesn't mean the token is worked mate
sometimes, the tokens without any development will make the token died and become scam or failed

Almost all ICO failed at the end or it's token price dumped at marcetplace from 1$ to a few cents. That is trend nowdays, according to my experience. That's the reason to invest in only top coins.

You have join cryptocurrency, i think it a way to betting you money, all investor in life will be risk. Once you've deposited your bank, it can also potentially cost you money, in case your bank goes bankrupt or your account is stolen.

You need to be careful about the possibility that tokens are scam. research should be done before investing in projects. teams and supporters are of great importance.

It doesn't work that way. Based on my small research back then, they say that tokens are easy to create and scams are everywhere. It's easy to create a token with an intent to scam.

Even failed projects you can still pass the tokens.

We have a rather good and fresh example how it works - check destiny of Envion project (https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/envion/). Nice idea, epic marketing, and more than 50 million dollars collected. And now it is going to hell!

ICO stands for "Initial Coin Offering".
these coins or tokens are sold in order to fund the project and they are
offered at a "cheap" rate in order to reward "early investors".

When the ICO is over the project may take another 12 months and more
until it goes live on an exchange or for a working product to materialise.

its easy for scammers to hand out useless tokens in an ICO in order to
get useful coins like Bitcoin or Ethereum.

Be careful!

Unfortunately, even SCAM projects have the ability to send out their tokens. Received tokens are far from an indicator of the performance of the entire platform. Be careful.
