Hello Everybody,

Could you please share, if familiar, what are investors usually looking for in an ICO?

I am part of a team managing ICO (soon it will be announced) and it would be useful to know what the investors are considering when investing in an ICO?

Thanks in advance.

There are lots of factors to be considered for a good ICO.

Business Plan - It's all about the project aims, goals and how the team will run the business
Blockchain, Token Utility and Crowdsale Structure- Which blockchain they are running the business. How they run crowdsales before he the launched.
Team Behind - it's important to know if the people behind the project can keep the business going after the launch. There should be a person/s on the team that knows and expert on the business.
ICO Listing Sites and- it's the effort of the project to be listed on a listing sites and how the people will support it to make it on list.
Github repository (Code)- it's not that important because not most of the investors can understand it.

So you should provide those details to investors to persuade them to invest on you ICO.

ofcourse the potential of the coin to have a good value in the future and also the project itself having a good project meaning it has a good potential for the coin to have a good value when it will be on the exchange.

I consider myself an investor and hence I feel I have the right to answer your question.
So investors just want one thing, and that is returns. They do not give a damn to any other stuff. They only look out for those coins who have potential to grow a lot in future and perhaps give them 2-4x returns.
So if there is any coin that satisfies this criteria, they happily invest in it and their investments aren't a few hundred dollars, they can go up to thousands and millions of dollars.
So a coin definitely has to show its worth if an investor has to consider it.

There are a lot of things that investors are looking for ICOs. The team should reveal their true identity and not faking it because faking it makes people think that it is only a scam project. It should also have a unique purpose and not just a copy of previous projects but if it is similar to other projects it should provide better service or development to compete with others. And of course it should have a good and straight to the point presentation. I mean the road map and whitepaper should be clear because with poor writing will also makes investors to not consider investing in your project.

Of course the goal is to find the appropriate token and can bring many advantages. Because the primary purpose of the investment is of course to make a profit. then we recommend that you choose a project that is really nice, and have a future.

4 Things Investors Look For in an ICO:
Have a coherent business model.
Have a prototype.
Make Your Team as Strong as Possible.
Do what you say you will. (honesty is of paramount importance. Investors know the risks: A project can fail and you will be forgiven. Break your word and you won’t be).

The most important thing that investors look before investing in it is the basic idea behind the project. It should be interesting and new and should be clearly explained. They also study about the team behind the ICO; their qualifications expertise, skills and experience. A good team can make a great impression upon the investors and lastly what are the goals of the ICO. They should be well communicated and realistic.

most of them are only looking to make profit in a short term, that is the main reason of why there are a lot of dumps after the ico touches it's first exchange after the crowdsale

A succinct communication of your project idea this can be done through stellar whitepapers, pitch decks, infographics. The team is an important element in aiding investor confidence especially what these members have been engaged with in the past and their involvement. I also think genuine investors sharing in the blockchain technology objective look for key features of the blockchain used such as is it public, permissionless, censorship resistant and borderless etc among others including the utility role of the project key to influence token price. Throw in as well regulation and legal framework issues around your project.

While all of this is correct, the most important thing an investor is looking for is security of his funds and assurance of a satisfactory return on investment. This can only be made possible if the project has a very unique focus capable of generating a large demand for the tokens

Well, first of all we seek an ICO which is 100% legit one and who doesn’t turn its back on us when it enters into market. Yes we are looking for your legitimacy if you really going to launch an ICO someday.

You guys should have proper telegram team who will keep in touch with the group preoperly and should answer every question with full confidence.

I have seen team members giving answers out of thin air and confusing members.

If I’m going to invest in you then you should understand that it’s my hard money which you guys are playing with and I do expect exchanger listing of same coin as early as possible. :-)

Firstly, it's important to be honest and transparent, know your product for how long you will do it well and know. Investors are not fools, they are the main long-term perspective where they can make good money, a transparent project in which they will have no doubts to invest their capital.

I think that most investors nowaday are looking for a very short term pump, but some large whales are buying discounted locked tokens and they may end up with the best results.

As an investor some of the most important criteria I use to judge an ICO is:

(1) The quality of the team behind the project - I want to see people with proven skills to advance the project and I want to be able to verify their information from reliable third party sources.

(2) A business worthy of tokenisation - I look for companies whose business idea is directly relevant to the blockchain and reject companies when the only reason for issuing tokens is their inability to raise funds another way.

(3) MVP - I want to see a minimum viable product, I think it is important to see the team have invested a little sweat equity before they start asking for money.
