People are doing ICO to raise money for project which will give them money.
Investors are investing in ICO because they think project will be big and it will give them profit.
Do you see any other reason than money?

Why would it be anything other than money? Unless you mean that you're trying to support a "worthy cause" or trying to build something of importance without focusing on the monetary value?

If i like a project and if i see a good potential i dont invest all of the money in ico.
I invest half of my money in ico time, and i keep second half for the time it is listed.

I’m assuming in order to test out the market and double down on profits if there’s initial interest? I like some more than others depending on the speculative value of an individual project. Some projects I’ve come across I can’t understand their white paper becuase it focuses exclusively on a computer related jargon language which isn’t helpful to 99.99% of clients. Other projects I’ve read, I see a fine concept, but the explaination and strategy behind the concept is too weak for it to speculatively profit. At the same time, there is a project that I simply like and the strategy behind it isn’t necessarily finished — it’s sort of a time will tell how the strategy will grow and if partners will come aboard, yet the concept fits into a marketplace void of that specific need.

ICO is my favourite way to buy altcoin. I like ICOs. Because ICOs give us a big bonus. i think it's a big opportunity for us. most people likes this project ICOs, they invest here and hold this altcoin. became they will get a great future.

If you really know what ICO are then you understand in my opinion that are the future of economy and not the null value cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.
ICOs are real projects and the tokens of them are like shares. If you buy tokens of a good ICO then you invest to real project and not wasted hardware and electric energy.

Sometimes I buy a few tokens during ico to support the product, so actually like on kickstarter.
It is not easy to find a promising ico where you can invest a big amount. Especially now when there are dozens icos each day.

It's a calculated risk...

the potential of ICO's is just huge. Just think about it. First we had the public companies, that most of the population can't invest in (their PRESALEs are usually conducted by insiders, big banks, who profit the most when launching an IPO) and even after the presale, the way to invest into public companies is to give all your documentation and idendity cards in order to buy a couple of shares, you're getting taxed and the broker fees are ripping you off. Now with ICO's anyone has the chance to join the fun and it's much easier to invest in what you believe in and potentially increase your investment, because the market is yet small and low capitalized, which means little money flowing in can fluctuate your portfolio to a couple thousand percent.

potentially can have big returns if the project is good and the team can deliver
but there is always the posibility of failing so don't put in an ICO anything more than what you want to lose

ICO is a good kind of investment. It likes Stock market, where investors can get profit and entrepreneurs can mobilize capital. You can find some ICOs to try, you will understand clearly.

Everyone is interested in profit. Profit is for the half % of people something that drives them to invest large sums of money. ICOs are representing the opportunity for people to gain profit based on risk. We all know nothing is certain when we invest but with good readiness and knowledge, we can earn good money. The system is based on different chains than "beloved and mighty BTC" and because of that some people don't invest here - They are faithful to the BTC. ICOs are representing probability for possible profit and that drives common folks toward investing in it.

in fact not everyone is willing to directly invest in an ico, but they are very confident that the value will return after the ico because of the knowledge or detailed information so that people believe in ico and the investors just choose a very good project to do especially on treading.

We blindly cant say that all ICO's are risk as we all know if no risk no gain also so we have choose the right one with lot of analyze then we can avoid loses so it is up to us only how much risk it is.

I only go for functional tokens, not one more cryptocurrency. I suppose that if there were a new crypto that seriously outperformed bitcoin it would be worth it, but not really.

Realistically, most coins drop in value right after the ICO. But they can go back up in value when they have an actual function.

ICO's can be a great investment if you choose the right one at the right time ofcourse! Making an investment in a good ICO, could be very profitable or it could fail dramatically leaving you peniless, it works both ways. Thats why it's recommended you do research into the ICO, checking whitepapers, websites if any and look into the team behind the project.

I like some of the new technology and ideas that are coming so wish to support these kind of innovative and unique projects. Of course as a small investor i would like to increase my bottom line, I will not ie about that. In the end we all want to invest to procure a profit and it would be silly to think that we invest to want to lose. No one wishes to lose in this game. I still consider though crypto investing as high risk but could be high reward also.
