Title: Does KYC contribute to the success of an ICO?
Post by: princessgirl on October 10, 2018, 04:44:29 AM
KYC is not a factor to the success of an ICO. KYC which means Know Your Costumer is for verification purposes especially to check double entries and eliminate bot entries.
The factors necessary for the success of an ICO include the expertise of team behind the ICO, the feasibility of the idea on the market etc.

I don't think so the success of the ICO is relying on the usage of the products and the expertise of the team plus a superstar's advisors KYC needed because it is a pre-requisite of the bank where the raised money of the ICO will be deposited.

KYC is not an indicator of the success of the ICO. But, I am of the opinion that if the team requires KYC means the project is less serious! At least my statistics show that in those programs of generosity in which participated where it was required to pass KYC they were not a Scam project. Yes, maybe they are not all collected hardcap but were not scams!

Not necessarily but it has an effect to the investors who would want to participate in the ICO.
Some consider KYC a good step to distributing coins/tokens to as many real people as possible. It prevents individuals from cheating and buying more than what he/she is allowed

In the past hundreds of ICO are successful without KYC, therefore it has no  factor for the success of ICO. It's all about your product, team, advisors and communication to your potential investors.

You are right, KYC doesn't determine the success of an ICO. It is applied to identify the information of investors or bounty hunters. I don't say KYC is not necessay. KYC is important in an ICO but the main factors contribute for the success of an ICO are the project ideas, team members, the quality of the products, and marketing plan + strategies.

Kyc is for the investor's who invest in their tokensale it has no connection to the success of a ICO's,if a project want their Bounty Campaigns to do KyC there is a reason that they have seen and they want to avoid cheaters and spammers participate in the Campaigns.

in my opinion, projects should have this procedure, because with its help a lot of bots and multi-accounts are eliminated,  and as a rule it gives guarantees that we will receive coins

Why, I know some ICO projects whose team escaped along with the funds raised and confidential information from investors and participants of the ICO generosity campaigns.
I also believe that the ICO team is not entitled to require KYC bounty hunters, since we are not investors in ICO projects. A KYC check is not intended to identify duplicate bounty hunter accounts. For this, it is not necessary to violate our privacy rights.

I agree mate. I think KYC doesnt determined then success of ICO..It just identity of investor and bounty hunters. I dont like that.

I think it is not. Too many small investors do not participate ICO's if KYC is required. Without KYC, I think, ICOs could collect more money.

KYC is just a method to preventing money laundering and illegal funding for terorism and something similar with it. KYC is not having impact for ICO progress

we all know that, that KYC has no relationship whatsoever with the success of a project,
and what makes the project successful is an experienced team, as well as clear concepts and goals.

KYC for me gives more value to the project because scamer will not register as much as he wants because they have to think about verification. KYC user projects will look more serious than most projects

Yeah you're right ! KYC (Know Your Customers) is just for the security purpose to prevent investors from restricted countries to invest in their projects and also to identify their customers and to prevent also abusing their bounty campaign from participants.

I have no influence on KYC with the success of the ICO. KYC actually only contains the identities of users who are involved in the ICO and only become administration-laden in entering the ICO Project. Actually the success of the ICO project is from the team and the amount of investment that comes in. So it has nothing to do with KYC.

In fact, KYC doesn't have a business to add success to the project. Although it helps to Know Your Customers but it is not the main factor to achieve the hard cap budget. The real success might be through effective promotion and attracted potentials investors.

Actually KYC has no contribution at all to the success of the ICO Project. The KYC is actually used by the Bounty manager only for the conditions for prospective members of the Bounty campaign so that there is their own identity and trust from the bounty manager to the members of the Bounty Campaign. so there is no connection to KYC with the success of the ICO Project.

For me, i don't think if kyc can contribute to the success of an ico cuase kyc is just know your costumer not related to the success of a project it depends on how the team work on their project and get successful.

The question is why did you make the question and you answered it?
It is certain that KYC is only a means to verify someone so that their identity is identified and that is certainly only 1% needed by the ICO project to be successful because 99% is Bitcoin or Ethereum that has been collected.
