Topic: What makes you invest in an ICO - page 8. (Read 2643 times)
First of all, Technology. I think It's the key issue. Also White Paper and development team is very important. I have joined my first bounty campaing in Swarm.fund and I have looked them. They have amazing development team and I liked their technology. I think they may be very succesfull in near future.
Ensure that they are solving a problem or will disrupt an existing business/industry.
Ensure that they can develop software, by enabling you to run or use software that they've already built.
Building software takes much more skill, time and work than any other aspect on the ICO.

Usually i try to read some particular reports such as real address of the ico and the age of their social media accounts.with previous activity.
If i find them most active on social media and very supportive on issues asked, also if they look a number of people making arrangements for their success with effort,i would be willing to invest in the ico.

At the moment, I invest only time in ICOs (ie: bounty campaigns). Of course, I need to check teams and guess % of ICO success since the risk to have no rewards is high.
the most of the people who comes towards ico's are in the greed to double their investment or triple it and sometime it happens but most of the time not. i think some of them were good too but most of them were scam and we have seen them but we have also seen some of the ico's doing really well and it is very good for the investors of it.i think it usually depends upon the ico how it is looking and the type of team behind this. i think those ico's having trusted teams and looking good attract the users to follow it or invest in it..

There's another reason why people makes invest on an ICOs is for getting fast profit. Because participating in ICO there will be a percentage of bonuses on a particular week or day. It's around 40%-50% some even give 100% bonus. Nahh, when ICOs end the exchange place will release and sell it.
Yes, I believe investment in ICOs are highly profitable even if an ico is not very good. Project makers will try to pump the coin and that's the moment to sell everything. Yet I think that they are still too risky for an ico might not only end up being nothing good but even not become listed on any exchanger. Moreover, only rather big sums can be invested in icos (like $1k), if I'm not mistaken. And this makes it all even more risky.
I usually check their social media accounts, how active they are in their slack and telegram accounts. Whether they have a good road map and the goal should be plausible. I also watch their q&a, and see if the devs are professional in answering questions and delivering the their targets.
We all know that before investing we try to see the whitepaper, the team, the website quality, the idea, the social presence..
but in the end of the day, what makes you want to invest in a project?
What is the ticking edge for you?
For me the most ticking edge that drives me to invest on ICO's is it's profitability based on the roadmap and team. Most wouldn't really invest on ICO's if projects are not profitable at all and because of that many users look for the roadmap, team, and more to invest on new upcoming initial coin offerings. For the team criteria I evaluate team credibility by seeing how active the team is and their past achievements on other ICO's if they joined one. but in the end of the day, what makes you want to invest in a project?

1. Jurisdiction. The company should be registered and the address should be provided for public.
Am surprise you mention Jurisdiction... I would guess that since we are trying to force the community to remain decentralised, why would be want a company registered with an address?
I would think that would make the project compromised, based on the upcoming laws that are bound to hit the industry.
Thanks for your way of thinking and your ideas.
I would guess that every person thinks differently, and what you are all saying makes sense.

Depends... if you invest (very) long-term you have to study the whitepaper and try to find out if there's a need for this idea. Not really easy though and some of the projects it's better to buy after the ICO for a lower price. You can also participate in ICOs if there's a lot of hype, wait for the first pump and sell. I think a lot of people are using this strategy. If it doesn't pump in the beginning you are sitting on coins you do not really like though.
And of course there are those ICOs like 0x, Kyber, OMG that are longterm projects but really profitable short-term also. If you find projects like those, it's a safe Investment.

Team, Advisor and most important,What ideas they carry, this is very important because almost all altcoin now only copy paste other project (Maybe)
as we knew that this investment will give some instant earnings if we got in a right timing, people look for some chances to earn and they consider ico would be the good choice to invest their money, its like betting in a gambling platform where you aren't sure whether you will win or lose same deal with ico if project succeed you will earn if not then you will lose as well.
But we think that have more chances to win than casino people. And with deep investigation it is just like that. Learn more and read deeper - foundation of ICO invest. IMHO and it's work 
which makes me dare to invest in an ico is the clarity and legality of a project to be built,
let alone the team that entered in the project is very important

I believe that after you do your homework with the long due diligence list (i.e. team, WP....); you've to follow your own/gut feeling about that ICO/Idea......this kind of feeling should have been well developed from the study, monitoring & analysis of many other ICOs (especially the completed ones)

Investors from all over the world want to get in on the ground floor, hoping to become a stakeholder in a startup that could turn out to be the next Google or Facebook.
