There are lots of projects who launch their pre-pre-ico and highly advertise their product before they start their first stage of pre-ICO. Do you think it's justified?

I think it's ok, they call it "seed investing". It normally occurs 2-3 months or more before pre-ICO.
While they are given huge bonuses, it's also justified as they are taking LONGER RISK and their funds are tied longer compared to pre-ICO and ICO participants.
The tokens on seed investing may not even hit the an exchange in 6-10 months or even longer.

Do you think it's esential to add an ICO project to some ICO trackers for this period of seed investing?

Pre ICO is good chance for big investors, This stage is for early investors who believe in the project and want to invest big amount, because the minimum investment required for this stage is very high, up to thousands USD, ICO also give big bonus for their investors. If the ICO is success, those investors get get a lot of profits.

Before, some ICOs are running for only 1-2 months or lower, but now you can encounter an ICO that runs for almost 6 months but you got nothing, just leaving you a shitcoin after they have done their timelime. And this kind of PRE-PRE-ICO is another wasting time, the projects had this just want to make sure that they can get more money before someone notice that they are soon to be scam. Now a days there are no good ICO, they are all scam.

It could be just a scam trying to let themselves look more professional or something, the ICO stage is enough to promote a project.

I think the ICO's that have pre-pre sales and pre sales are just giving out too many bonuses that could only hurt the project when these early buyers decide to dump their coins when it is listed on the exchanges. Those who purchase late and do not receive any bonuses will suffer from financial loss.

Sure, those who purchase late will suffer because they could earn more if they bought coins during pre-sales. So pre-ICO gives great opportunities to earn more. But investors should learn and understand the project well before they decide to invest because there are lots of ICO projects that turn out to be not profitable.

Though there are good ICOs available but many useless, less credible and poor concept based ICOs are trying to squeeze money out of their investors by introducing such phases which is just making the whole ICO scene complex and confusing. Recently, there has been news of KYC getting mandatory for all the ICOs, which will also create a fuss about fraudulent ICOs stealing people's identities and making a profit out of that for themselves.

It sounds like a typical money collection. If team can't get money for beginning marketing, they won't create successful project. It is hard to create something amazing and worthwhile without money.

This is a strategic way for companies to raise funds and that’s all. They just provide a small amount of bonus in different stage of their crowdfunding to attract investors before the public sale goes live. But it is actually a matter of joke that they are adding new terms to ICOs to raise funds. We must read their whitepaper properly and check if the team is actually good and experienced, whether they have the ability to bring profit from the project.

Though ICOs are making this phase available for the early investors who will definitely gain more profit than investors who joined later but the current situation looks like, people are getting annoyed with so many stages and levels of an ICO which are meant to be nothing but their business strategy. If this situation persists, many people will start losing their interest in ICOs.

When the market evolves, new things come. As Crypto space is not regulated as it is based on a decentralized concept, it is really nearly impossible to control this pre-pre ICOs, Scam ICOs, dummies, and fakes etc. We cannot justify them well except for making our opinion on it what we are doing now. These things making crypto- space more complicated though these are the signs of the evolvement of ICO market.

I don't think that's reasonable. Huh

At present, ICO still needs some legal restrictions, but most ICO is in a state of chaos.

There are successful ICO's and for some did not really make it that far. Pre-ICO is when the sale of coins before the official crowdsale where there are some offering % discount to the early investors. I believe that there are good ICO's in the crypto market and all you need to do is just to do a research for the best legit ICO that you may be planning to invest.

Pre-ico is the way of a project to know if they will get a support from the people but sometimes is not good to have pre ico because it takes time to project to get their goal.

I don't really like the idea. Seems absurd actually. I feel like its more of a marketing gimmick situation than a serious coin. They should have a well thought out ICO and go from there. Doing a pre-pre ICO will make me look elsewhere to invest.

Considering the pre-ICO timing, if you have the opportunity to invest at this time, the high probability will be profitable because now that the ico Token is launched, the rate is always lower than the ICO. Having a chance to buy Token at private rounds and pre-ico rounds is a great opportunity, entirely not to be missed.

I think this type of ICO's will not have a succes because you can't have a pre-ico of a pre-ico so it's kinda funny what people started to do in order to catch some extra money. Personally, I would stay away from this pre-pre Ico's because investing into them involve a huge huge risk.

In my opinion, there are two reasons why they launch Pre-ICO. First, Pre-ICO help them understand the needs of investors, if it quickly sells in Pre-ICO, it is good news to know they are on the right track. direction. The remaining projects are selling their tokens in the Pre-ICO phase without the ICO, as Pre-ICO are mostly large investors.

The first thing I felt was that they were ICO organizers who really needed investors because their tokens or coins did not sell, so they pre-pre-ICO

the second thing is this is very funny, if at this time we already know pre-ICO maybe someday we will get to know pre³ICO or pre⁴ICO, it is very funny and sounds imposing. It's better to just avoid ICO like that.

It's ridiculous i suppose and why? that gives a lot of unstability to the price of the token. Remember there were dozens of icos have been doing a lot of pre-sale with a huge bonus and this will make the investors will try to think that the ico price should be the pre-ico price. That's why majority of the pre-ico was dumping it.

You should know that getting in private sales/deals now is really of no use. Because at the end of the day when the token is listed on an exchange, the price will take massive beatings down. Those 5-30% bonus would then be of little to no help to you as you'll only end up getting rekt. The ico space isn't something I'm touching anytime soon. VCs are just getting the deals and dumping it on the average investor.
