Topic: Which incoming ICO to invest our BTC into? - page 2. (Read 2529 times)

We will be making our big announcement in the ICO department very soon.

The ICO has already started, i can see it on their website.
If they wanna gather funds, its in tis forum where they can see bitcoin users who are willin to invest to a project once they see potentials and profit. Why one earth will they ever go for facebook ads.

No - they haven't done a PRE-ANN and they haven't done the ANN yet on here. There is a link holder on their website along with all the other media links so I guess they will make an ANN when the time is right.   They had the existing community vote for various aspects and parameters of the ICO so the ANN will be done when all is settled, I presume.

have already heard of it from an advert on facebook and google but never have i seen thier ANN thread here. of all palce to promote why should they stick on facebok? That made  me think ChronoBank.io may scam people online. if they are indeed legit they should at least stay here and prove themselves worthy.

Hey, no one is mentioning KOMODO!

Come on guys let's cheer it up for... KOMODO

Yeee!

Do we have some cheerleaders in the house?

I remember reading about Golem. I like the idea of a world computer to share resources with and rent it and render video faster (for example).

I just don't know if the ICO will be worth it, or it's better to wait for the usual first crash, then buy cheaper in the exchanges before another pump happens..

Just invested into Inchain, lookin at Golem and Cosmos.

There are a lot of interesting ICO if you are keen on observation. ARK , vDice and Incent are the three major ICO running or will run. My criteria on judging good ICO are the background of devs (credibility and experience) and their platform. I add vdice because i know that their will be a lot of supporteron their project because we all know that the majority of user here are gambling,

You have to sort through a lot of old clams to find a pearl.

This one looks interesting.

ChronoBank.io

Using smart contracts on multiple blockchains, Eth, Waves and Lisk - it is aiming to disrupt the rec-con and agency industry. Like Uber but for all gig-economy jobs.

Saying the truth there are a lot of ICOs that are being created every month and after the Iconomi I am not seeing any other similar to icn, one ico that I saw recently has reached near 1 million dollars and that is incent, but not sure if it worth investing there now.

I'd also avoid the hyped vapor coins with lonnnng waits for launch or long windy road maps that the developer probably can't fulfill, the ico buyers end up trapped in a lot of cases when it hits the exchange and flops.

Have a look in some of the old ann threads at all of the sad bagholders still clinging to hope that their dead coin will pump at a future date down the "road map" so they can dump their bags, and they still fool themselves and gobble up cheap coins.

Don't be one of those guys.

I avoid these toxic communities like the plague.

Set yourself a realistic exit point and stick to it, unless you have a use for the coin, most of them die within a few months because there's no real users.

Yes, you did it, just watching the other people are doubling their investment. what about antshares and already got pumping more than the ico price and seems that's not bad for anyone. and what about those coins? PSB, and the another.

Looking at Ark.io again. The (presumably French speaking) CTO from studying his LinkedIn appears to be from the Lisk project and before that from working with the government of Europe. Typically these sort of people are weak on technology skills and strong on creating wasteful bureaucracy. Has he spoken in English any where? Is eloquent and inspiring like Vitalik?

I very, very much doubt this guy is as technically strong as the guys I mentioned in my prior post.

I also remember Charles Hoskinson saying in his exposition about Lisk, that their core team is lacking in technical skills.

Looks like Ark.io will raise a minimum of 2000 BTC (and probably much more since Lisk raised $8 million) with 25% of the ICO for themselves and they are apparently holding 7% of the money supply as well? Details are sketchy for the moment.

The name is Ark is reasonably good. But I have a better name.

As I said, they appear to have the similar broken model for onboarding and rewards as Steem (but I only briefly scanned the whitepaper). I don't know if they copied Steem's 2 year lockin and inflation model.

This might end up being a reasonable speculation, if they can hype it out at some point. Or maybe somehow they are able to pull it all together technically and also improve on flaws of Steem over time.

But for me, I am doubting whether Lisk, Waves, and now Ark will ever amount to anything significant. I have some technical reasons which I am not going to detail, because they are for my project. Actually Waves is somewhat unrelated concept to other two, but the way it was launched claiming to be affiliated with Charles' IOHK has made me think it is not an ethically run operation.

Any way, I always get people angry at me when I comment on other projects. So remember these are only my opinions. And I will STFU.


Disclaimer: the project I am working on is a competitor to Ark. So I am biased. But I better be objective, else I am wasting my time with my project.

You all ever get sick of posting these same topics non stop ?

EDIT = Good quote..


Transparency & Accountability.. LOOK for it.

If ever there is a really great ICO, it will be obvious to you, because the amount being raised will be very tiny compared to the potential future market cap. It will be already running on testnet when you buy the ICO, so that you know you are not buying vaporware.

And the project will have a clear set of developers, market, and technology.

Right now I would be in Bitcoin, then I would look to acquire some XMR and ZEC once they bottom from their recent price spikes.

You might want to bottom fish on LTC for money you don't need to touch for a year.

Keep your eyes open for the next big thing, but don't be easily swayed to buy some hype and huge ICO that makes it very unlikely you can cash out a 10 times gain.

As always buy a combination of value and marketing prowess, and be very very skeptical so you don't buy riff-raff.

Does anyone know how much $$ the ICO of Ark.io will raise? I don't know enough details to say whether that coming Steem clone is worth making a speculative investment. They seem to rather serious, but I don't think they've really improved anything over Steem's broken model at least in terms of the onboarding and rewards payout mechanism (and math!). They may be correcting the whale concentration with a more fair ICO than Steem's sneaky "premine". Devil is in the details.

Also remember you are investing in the capabilities of the lead developer to a large extent unless the project is entirely complete and no future forks. Even then you are sort of investing in the lead developer, because it is assumed he will work on the ecosystem development. So you need to know very well the technical and marketing capabilities of the development team, especially the lead developer.

For XMR, you have fluffypony. For Bitcoin, you have Gregory Maxwell. For Zcash, you have Zooko-Wilcox. Etc...

Don't count and don't touch ICO coins these days because all would lower than ICO value and the mystery team would disappeared over time. Everyone is just want and after that gold standard Bitcoin.

I'd have to stay save your BTC and be safe, likely will loose it all!

Mining are the hottest method for being a money maker after zcash are already launch.
you're right but pumped,dumped and disappears are the part of ico journey, and this trend will gonna happen till a few years later.

none you dumb fuck.

In my opinion only two Ico project  so far have delivered what are in their roadmap even though they are still in their ICO period and they are Victoriouscoin and luckchain ..

These are built for long term investment check out their announcement thread and their website.
