Why i will invest in cryptocurrency and forget ICOs.

[sugarpie2018]

This is what i would advice,... Invest in cryptocurrencies listed on coin market cap and forget ICOs.

Reasons:
1. Coins listed on coin market cap are more reliable to invest in than coin yet to be listed on coin market cap/being offered during initial sales.
2. Lately most ICOs are scam.
3. Lately most ICOs do not reach their soft cap. Hence, chances are, you may either get you money back same or depreciated or loss it entirely
4. Coins listed on coin market cap have been listed on most trading sites. Hence, you get the chance to participate in any form of trading you desire.

Buttom line
When you invest in an altcoin that has already been around it means you have some history to work with.
For example an altcoin that has been around for at least a couple of weeks has an established market and a nice chart that you can look at to see the volumes, the current price and the changes of it throughout all its lifetime,... And you can use all that to analyze the coin and make a better investment decision and reduce the risks of your investment.

Caution:
Before you invest in a particular coin listed on coin market cap
1. Take a careful look at the price graph of coins and decide which coin interest you
2. Read more about how to invest in your desired coin. the pros and cons.
3. Work your way out to make your first investment.

Before you invest in an ICO,
1. Gain indepth knowledge about every aspect of the Project
2. Ask yourself whether the Project is worth your investment?.
3. Ask yourself would other people have interest in the project?
4. Ask yourself whether, the project has greater chance of hitting it soft and hard cap during token sale?
5. Measure your level of suspicion of scam behind the project.

Remember: if soft cap is not achieved the project becomes unsuccessful, Hence your investment might be interrupted
                If soft cap and hard cap are achieved, probability of the team running away with your money is pretty high.
Therefore becareful the kinda ICOs you invest in

The above is entirely my opinion. Please share yours below if you agree or disagree

Yes crypto is more secure and already registered in the coinmarket cap or crypto market whereas ICO needs a process for registration in the crypto market. for the value specified from the number of holders and sellers after being on the market.

there are some ICO the potential and could have ICO the registered later in coinmarketcap. but if for long-term I would suggest for investment in crypto that have been a long time there in the market crypto. and the most important thing of the investment is patience to manage the assets crypto.

ICO projects are now more than 70% of junk projects and the remaining 30% are projects with clear investment but most of them are listed as dumped.
So invest in cryptocurrency instead of ICO

now there is a trend that after the coin goes to the exchange, coins immediately fall in price, and are lower than on the main sale, so I see no reason to buy on sale

Coins listed on the market cap are more reliable to invest in and in addition, you can see the how the market is performing.  Those at ICO stage at times are scam and the prices fall at the market cap
