Many crypto projects raise the limit very high during the initial phases of its launch. These hard caps are difficult to reach. Nonetheless, it all depends on the popularity of the ICO. If it has been rightly promoted, it can reach the target easily. Hard cap refers to the maximum fund required to set up the business.

Hard cap refers to the maximum amount a ICO/company intends to raise through crowd sale while soft cap is the minimum amount which company plans to raise for its project to take of ground. So companies generally have basic requirements which are taken care by soft cap while hard cap funds are for future expansion for markets or diversifying into other projects
softcap is minimum target in a project, hardcap is maximum target in a project.
A soft cap is the minimum needed for the project to proceed and a hard cap is the amount that they will accept no more than. For instance a soft cap could be 10 million and a hard cap 30 million meaning if the project does not attain 10 million it will not proceed and also if it reaches 30 million no more can be contributed.

A hard cap is basically the maximum amount a crowdsale will receive and most projects set a very high cap that is isn't likely to happen. A soft cap is the amount received at which your crowdsale will be considered a success...the minimal amount required by your project.
