I try to invest in promising ICOs. Yet, there were ICOs which disappeared thereafter, which I unfortunately invested in. Couple of my investment in ICOs apppeared to be very lucrative, so I will keep investing further. With each investment in ICO there comes valuable experience. Now I am becoming pro scam identifier))

Next time, try to evaluate those new ICO from who the developers behind the project are. This thing really matter a lot and what make a project succesfull, not just random people making nonsense project using word "decentralized", that's really a different thing and just were made to be a money grabber, no more.
That's an expensive lesson you got there.

I'm very very wary of investing in ICOs. It's quite a big gamble as there have been a few in the past that didn't even get to an exchange or anything, they just disappeared.

Investing in ICO now is having taking a risk. Some ico now are good when they launch it like you think its a good project but things turned out when the project has ended. A promising one turned to a scam. That's why SEC now is getting strict about this. And hope over time it will be resolve so our money will grow and secured.

Investing in ICO does not guarantee a profit, sometimes you lose and sometimes you profit, that's how fair it is
but sometimes you gut lucky to make big profit when the ICO you participated will improve their tokens.
By checking on the history of ICOs you can tell it's profitable but the answer is still coming from you because you are the one
who will decide on where and what to invest.

Obviously I invest because I hope to make some profits. I do look for projects that are promising and exciting though.

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!

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.

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

If you are a newbie you would really think on this kind of thing which you would really ask into your mind regarding on the transparency or legitimacy of the project and as an investor we should really know how to spot a good project and as been said investing on ico are very risky as an investor we wont really know if it would make us profits or even loss because most ico do end mostly on having less price than on its ico price which is really frustrating.

The one and most probably the only reason people invest in ICOs is MONEY. "What do investors think to get in return?" Money nonetheless. But for me, to be honest, I don't want to invest in ICOs or rather I'm scared of investing 'cause I could probably end up losing all my money. Investing in general is a risks but risks could result in two things it's either you great freaking rich in a period of time or you could lose all your money. So, investing in ICOs really depends on your intentions, whether you’re looking for a quick buck or a long-term investment.

Don't invest in all your money in one ico, you can separate your money into 5-8 icos, then you can't lost all you money .
Why invest in icos? For money.

Why invest in ico is definitely due to profit although sometimes there is a loss because ico does not run smoothly, but that includes from the risk of an investment, you must be smart in choosing ico you want to invest. Dev is serious with the his project will give an profits to investors to attract a lot of investors, maybe you must try to participate pre-sale token because the investors will get more profits than dev but the minimum investment is not little.

I think giving people access to invest in early stage startups is a good thing. We're told that we have to have $10 million in assets in order to invest in such projects - but why? Are we really being protected? I don't trust that the government necessarily has our best interest at heart. Hence, I think ICO's are a GREAT innovation.

I personally invest in ICO projects that contribute legitimate value to the world. Each of us must assess what legitimate value for themselves, and naturally their are risks involved. But precluding retail investors from startups isn't fair, in my opinion.

The growth is promised, whether it's short time or long time the ICO price pumping happens once after the distribution of tokens. Another thing is that we can get a good profit if invested in the early days or by the starting week of the token pre-sale, because around 25-50% more token is provided for the invested amount.

Mostly it's the same case: ICO starts, much money comes in, you get the coins.

That was back then, things are slowly changing because investors are now more careful and prudent in where they investment money
Investors invest in projects that are probable that the investment will payback with an interest

Its not going to happen over night it might take years for some projects to reap profits its all about patience

Or do you invest because of other reasons?

Some projects are practical and are aimed at helping people more efficiently with the help of the blockchain technology...which makes such worth investing in

I often invest in ICO projects because the ICO I choose use good technologies and can apply in my life. I think if we know how to choose good ICO, then you will make a good profit
