I can't sell most of them because they are too worthless, I have to keep holding and hoping that one day they will appreciate in value, what I've learnt so far is every ICO and IEO projects will lose value at one point in time and may never recover, if you are not ready to hold for long term always take profit after ICO or crowdfunding is over

Yeah, rather than having a few bucks and getting almost nothing in terms of BTC or ETH, it is somewhat good to hold them for a little bit long time. I did that for a few of my ICO tokens. If these tokens are having volumes on exchanges, I think holding won't be a major problem.

Hi fellas!

We have witnessed a tremendous ICO trend in 2017-18. I am sure a lot of you would have participated in many ICOs. If not, you would have received altcoins as a payment mode from bounties. So, what have you done to them? If you haven't sold them, what is your plan with them?

Highly likely most of them sold everything they had once the hype was over and the price of the tokens were tanking really bad. Those who are still holding them are probably regretting and in a stage of denial. They think the prices will rise back again. Unfortunately it won't rise back. Those were shit tokens that people invested like sheep when there was the ICO hype.

It's not that I lost a huge sum as a very few of them had returned back invested amount. But I am not sure now what to do with these. So, if you are holding any of these of such ICO tokens, what are you planning to do with 'em.

Don't ask for peoples opinion. Doesn't matter what they are doing with those tokens. If the tokens you are holding are worthless, then just sell them and invest in bitcoin or other well known altcoins. You will be getting better profits.

I try to do this:
- after ICO, on the first high, I drain the volume that I spent on the ICO, as a rule, after the release of the coin, they make a slight increase (x2-x3-x5), this is to return the investment and reach the break-even point. Accordingly, 20% -50% are sold
- the rest, if the project has potential, I leave it for the medium-long term.
In this scheme, not everything is perfect, but it turns out to minimize risks.

This is a good strategy indeed. I realized making such kinds of strategies in ICO listings a bit later which saved my seed investment. If I would have applied this strategy, I think I would have a good position!

I am doing the same as you. I have more than 10 ICO coins. I already sold 4-5 coins, but after selling those I have mixed reactions as they are going better than the previous situation. So, If I can hold them, then they can be more profitable. I don't know that decision was good or not, but in this current coin market situation, I decided to hold my existing coins.

Never regret anything that you have sold in the past, because every decision we have made is always the best even though holding it for a while can be more profitable than what we have sold, this is why many people always say considerations before making a decision any.

In my opinion, if you regret what decisions we did in the past, of course it will only be a waste of time and only waste energy,
better decisions in the past we make a lesson to look to a better future

I had participated in more than a dozen of ICOs and I am still holding their coins. They include:

1. Wanchain (WAN)
2. ICON (ICX)
3. Elastos (ELA)
4. Ren Protocol (REN)
5. Project Pai (PAI)
6. Walimai (WABI)
7. Request Network (REQ)
8. Quantstamp protocol (QSP)
9. Ripio Credit Network (RCN)
10. Apex (CPX → PHX)
11. Nash Exchange (NEX)
12. Lympo (LYM)
13. Experty (EXY)
14. Cardstack (CARD)
15. Insights Network (INSTAR)
16. Remme Protocol (REMME)
17. Atonomi (ATMI)
and a few more...

It's not that I lost a huge sum as a very few of them had returned back invested amount. But I am not sure now what to do with these. So, if you are holding any of these of such ICO tokens, what are you planning to do with 'em.

what i do is :
1. if the token has a price and has given me a profit, then I will sell it and invest in another token;
2. if the token has no price, then of course I will hold and hope that in the future the token will have a price and give me profit.
because I believe if the project we invest is good then the price will definitely increase (although sometimes we need a long time) and an example is SwissBorg (CHSB), I participated in ICO SwissBorg (CHSB) and when the ICO finished, then the price of CHSB continued to fall and the lowest price was $0.004770, but I still hold my CHSB and now the price of CHSB increase very high, so of course I made a big profit from investing in CHSB (even though I had to hold over 1 year) and I am selling CHSB at $0.3.

Most ico coins or altcoins I have received from bounty from that year was already sold. There are still altcoins that remain in my wallet but some of them are just shitcoin or most likely being abandoned by the developers. They do not have the value since the day they were sent to my wallet.

I don't do much other than sell when I see the coins I invested in are at a high price point, where I can determine a good target return on the initial investment capital. In investing you must have a target to determine profitability and also choose real coins that are on the market. simple examples such as Bitcoin, ethereum, BNB, LTC etc.

Mostly the ICO coins that I have earned way back 2017 from ICO projects I have joined are already been sold for I have manage to clean out my portfolio and see to it that I properly organized and see for myself the worthy coins from those that have already no potential but still have a value and sold those just to be able to give myself even a small income coming from those and make use of it on purchasing other worthy crypto coins in the market. Well, no one have expected that after the prosperous and peak year of Altcoins and ICO project the next years will be the outbreak of projects failing and coins come to be under valued or having no value at all in short worthless. I have sold those that I see after observation that have no chance for improvement and just left those worthy and hopeful ones in my account.

If I have these in my wallet for sure I'll gonna sell and will convert easier to btc and eth. We do have our own ways on how we can grow our funds and on how we can take the opportunity to earn profit. I learned my lesson from the past, after I invest on such project the price is dump. So you have to be careful before we invest.

I have never invested in an ICO, every time I get an ICO coin generated from a bounty campaign and if I think the project is good then I will keep it and vice versa. it all depends on the project itself. but every time I get a bounty coin if the project is good then I will save it, and if the project doesn't develop, sell it immediately while there is still a price.

I have got so many coins because I had did many bounties campaigns and as a result of that, I got many tokens according to the time. I still hold these tokens in the hope of it would rise furthermore.

In your hope that all tokens will obviously be very good, but you also have to know that each token you hold has its own development team and if they no longer care about that token, then don't expect the token to increase in price until whenever.

When someone HODLs a token/coin one does not expect it to rise overnight he had many tokens according to him and the truth must be told not all of it would see the brightness of the day but maybe just maybe one could, that's the essence of keeping worthless tokens just for the sake of MAYBE. People who hodl worthless bitcoins 13 years ago are millionares today so taking risk is part of life.

sell them immediately i've invested to ICOs before multiple times and i can guarantee that if you don't know what you are doing or if you don't know what will happen on the next few years it would be worthless i invested around $500 in some coins and after a year well the price drops dramatically and my total coin worth is just $80-$100.

if project still alive we should not worry about its price although now its price decrease alot, but as long as they still regurly communicate with us its indicated they still trying to developt and deliver product for us. and we have to understand it will take long time , and in its journey it have possibility be scam project too.

Just like you, I also hold hundreds of coins but my 90%+ coin not listed that I am holding even there are some coins that are dirt cheap that I can not cover up the gas fee if I sell it. Greediness leads to this situation honestly speaking If I sold it in 2018 I must have good backup money with me for future investment but things are totally opposite. I don't have any of the coins you hold at the moment and my planning is to hold my coins till they give me a good profit.

I agree with Greediness part. I would have billed bags if sold on time. But a very good lesson learned indeed.

Yep, I also experienced this myself. even though I have gotten a pretty good profit, but still my greed makes me go through a situation where my tokens are worthless. I plan to save it if the price goes up, and the crypto crash makes me unlucky, but it's what it's all happening and the experience is expensive

Like you said some of us got the altcoin from bounty campaigns and since 2017/2018 that I have participated in airdrop and bounty. I sold some out of it then but the other one I am still keeping in my portfolio. For now, what I am doing with it is saving them up for the future.
