What can we do to reduce the perceived risks of ICO?

You need to learn to analyze projects on your own so as not to support the shit and then the scammers will stop running ICO. Now many people do not even want to carefully study white paper, but look only at beautiful advertising.
You are right!
And they create topics here "Do you read WP?".
Guys - this is the minimum what we have to do it, or just send your money to me)

The only thing is to advise investors to watch carefully before investing their funds on any project since cryptocurrency is a decentralized market place and not Centralized. It therefore implies that any decisions you make is at your own risk. Once it happens no reverse it will only be a bad lesson to you. So is better to avoid scam and regret.

Many ICOs have sprung up in 2018. They are bringing new trademarks, projects and innovations that have never existed before. The new ICO carries some risks and considerations, so local authorities and investors should be careful in placing their funds as investment vehicles.

Do not join shit projects so wont have any problem,investing in ICOs has more risk than trading blindly,you need to check all of the factors that will give those projects a chance to achieve success,first the team behind it check if they are really legit,second the product does it have any use to our real world?third the whitepaper and roadmap should be attainable by the developers,fourth the partners of the ICOs,if there is none you should think thrice so you wont lose your investment.

It is rather problematic to regulate ICO and protect / insure investors. This sell of tokens is multinational & laws should be in the key of international law, which is fundamental and will pass years so that it can be regulated.
 Your safety is in your hands. If you read at least a small hint of a scam - do not invest. If you see little real feedback, and all the reviews are not real (not from experts) - do not invest.

Make sure that they are the real deal. Meaning the team is real and their vision of the project is real. Most likely, they will deliver.

We need to read the regulations and rules as well as the rest information on ICO provide.Moreover,ICO's who offers bitcoin and this is indeed a true and trusted ico.But overall,we should always need to take a risk to know whats preferable ICO or not

High fees = low BTC price
it is not a perceived risk but a real risk.

Guns, drugs, sex and ransomware kicked Bitcoin off just like porn did with the internet
but now we have money scams and pyramid schemes to watch out for too.

I was told "Virtually free transactions fees" when it came to Bitcoins so who do I sue ?

I can write a smart contract on ETH that gets deployed to 10,000 nodes that takes your money
and when the year hits 2019 it moves everyone's cash to my account and i could write the code
in a way that it would not be easy to spot.

Ripple offers some protection and not everyone shares our hate of bankers that now
comes second to miners in my case and yes even Bitcoin itself is looking like a scam
so we need to police ourselves or we will be wiped out

Regulation will only affect the ones based under certain jurisdictions that its valid in. ICOs that are already finished could potentially move to new countries with no regulation or with loose rules to welcome them in place. What WE can do is not put money in ICOs that could potentially turn bad. That shouldn't be too hard but the truth is that people in crypto are too risk averse while the economy is still bullish.
