Topic: Why do you invest in ICOs? - page 11. (Read 8173 times)
I usually like to invest in ICOs because they will shoot up in value after they go live, but some of them present a real solution in a good way. Just make sure the team looks good and you're good to go.
Well I do not invest in ICO's but I am earning that particular coin. Because buying coins during its ico is really not a good choice for me because I am into short term trade. Look at the prices of the coins during its ico. The price of it is usually so high than when its coin will be sent to the known exchanges. And that is only good for the long term. As I've said I am earning those coins here in the forum. By joining signature campaigns and I might be fine.
I think investing in ICO projects is risky because we can not verify the origin of the ICO and who is the founder of the project. People invest in ICOs just for high profits and do not care about risky issues
This is only true for projects that are kind of shady, for projects that are serious the developers reveal their identities and you can check their background if you want, also people invest in icos for different reasons and not only for the profits some invest because they believe in the project and want to support it regardless of the profits. 
I was investing in ICO's for the money, for a while it felt like guaranteed profits, now there are just too many to keep up with and too many tokens end up being cheaper shortly after they hit exchanges (BNT, SONM...).
Since there's too many ICO it's not impossible that some tokens will lose their value replacing by new ones which are much better, but if such project development were tokens came from and still on development there is stoll chances thay tokens demand once finish can pump. It jwill just take time.

because after ico token can make x5 x10 easily. at this time there is a lot of ico. its hard to find a good ico but when you find just sit and watch.
Yeah i also agree for this if the dev is hard working and he do all for the best of this token you profit will be 10x or up i already witness a lot of successfull tokens and coins but some of them also got problem.
some of them has no product just trying to go forward with marketing. i'm trying to contribute icos that has actual product or good developers. other way after a while marketing will be over and people will start to question that token.

I invested in BitDice ICO, that is my first investment, then I invested in few more ICO`s. Why? I support the idea behind it, casinos are making
their own tokens, that can be very useful. Casino is increasing a bankroll with our investment in tokens, as casino grow, tokens will worth more, not
just casino also trading with this tokens can increase worth of tokens.
Many people do not like ICO`s, I understand why, to many scam coins appeared and it is hard to recognize which one is good, I am also not sure
in this, but I need to try something and my choice was this.

Hi,
this thread I want to ask you: Why do you, if you do, invest in ICOs?
I see horrible huge amounts of money going to those. What do investors think to get in return?
Mostly it's the same case: ICO starts, much money comes in, you get the coins.
But what if those coins do not get back the initial worth?
Or do you invest because of other reasons?
For example (disclaimer: this is NOT hate!):
Why did trueflip.io get over $4,7 Million?
Thank you for answers!
There are such coins where there really is a good idea, and they can earn a lot of money.this thread I want to ask you: Why do you, if you do, invest in ICOs?

And there are also coins on which you can earn a hyip.
I have such reasons for investing in ICO.
I think investing in ICO projects is risky because we can not verify the origin of the ICO and who is the founder of the project. People invest in ICOs just for high profits and do not care about risky issues
Yeah this is true. And the people behind some projects don't care if the campaign will succeed or not. As long as they get their salary they are fine with that. That's why many ico starts to be fine and in the end it will turn to scam.
So much risky so better to be picky when choosing where to invest.
At the end of the day, there will be some ICOs that should be absolutely avoided. A conservative strategy is 99% of all ICO could be junk. Do your due diligence and learn how to sniff out the 1%. Investors who have bought coins at the ICO price have been rewarded generously by the companies in question In the next year there will be more and more ICO offerings coming out every month as this technology becomes more mainstream, so it will be become more difficult to filter out the riffraff and find the cryptocurrency firms with the most potential.
You just want to ask 'Why do you invest ? '.You know the answer , and the answer is the same for all of us here.Money.
Well, the answer to that question is not that simple for everyone. Some people do like to make money on the things that they purchase yet there is a few people that just want to invest in a coin so they can say that they have the coin no matter the whole value of the token.Investing in something doesn’t always mean that the investors wants money from it, they could have another purpose for it instead of just relying on dollars and other currency to get them rich.
You’re right about most people investing money into something because majority of them want to get rich though.
Investment in ICO is a trend of the future. I think in future ICO projects will be censored more carefully and certainly the ICO projects must be legal. I hope in the future there will be no scam ICO because everyone is keen to invest in ICO
There are always going to be scams on the world of ICO there is no way around that, in stocks there are many scams all the time, you do not hear about it them because either everything is hidden or the regulators were part of the scam, but do not forget scammers are everywhere.

Last year I have heard about Bitcoin for the first time. But I've got a job and make enough money to live. My friend, who have told me about it, continue searching for information, investing money, taking part in bounty campaigns. And this spring or summer he bough a flat! He started with nothing. And now he's got enough not only to live, but to make the dreams come true.this thread I want to ask you: Why do you, if you do, invest in ICOs?

I invested in couple of them, I kinda see they have some future, at least some of them. At the moment there is so many ico`s, explosion of new coins, I think more coins appeared in past few months then ever before. Today I saw a thread about how LUST is a scam, one guy revealed them, they had stolen pictures, fake names, everything is fake about them. Thanks for this should go to Jan Marcin, here is the thread about it https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/lust-ico-is-a-scam-2077842. People should be aware, many of this new ico`s will turn out to be scams in one moment, so before investing check everything.
I think those who are investing are the ones who do hold a big bag of ETH, so I think that might have happened when many investors pushed ICO really successful
Do you really think that is the reason why most of the people invest into #ICO ? Just because they have wallets filled with #ETH! Lozl thats really laughing thing anyone must have said until now. These ICO are not a joke and they are business really. ICO projects have some important agenda on the basis of which they run and let the market survive on them. They give us big opportunities to earn extra bucks by helping them out with investments that we could afford. We are basically there shareholder so we have a position with ICO officially and everything works professionally with ICO. Its true most of the people think about it in the negative way but they are not as long as people are investing truthfully in them. :-) I invest for best of the ICO to give me huge profits and see myself as part of successful ICO.
Investing in ICO is very risky and we know it, to be prepared with risk, for me the ICO is very profitable, high potential and can develop in the future.
Investing in ICOS can be a risk, but it can also be a great opportunity.
