Escrow is must to invest in any crowdsale I avoided this project because it was looking like Ebitz when we go without any safety about our funds. So many people learned lesson from these project to go with another one.

NEVER invest in a ico without ESCROW! NEVER. That's like rule number two right after making sure your wallets are always encrypted and backed up.

I wonder if Etherium initial crowdfunding had an escrow?
Or IOTA? NXT? I believe the answer is NO...

No need to make rules where they do not exist (or at least not that simple). There are so many variables...

NXT was one of the first ico's so that does not count and for the others the devs were not anonymous. Its a big difference. Here you have a noob anon dev asking for btc for an ico without escrow. Its a fucking scam!

+1 to this.If Devs are well known,one can overlook escrow absence for escrow is also as good as his reputation and if someone of the same repute is associated with the project,escrow is just a mere formality.
if someone came here with a bought account,begin a ICO,he/she is expected to use escrow

Yes, sure, this is all I wanted to tell: no need to make too simple and bold rules for everyone like "never invest in a ICO without escrow". The reality is more complex than those rules, and also I really do not like when some people come here after failure of the ICO (when it turns to be a scam), and start teaching others like they are prophets and everyone else is an apprentice needing guidance. I don't mean Pumpkinetic specifically, if you look back this thread, there are probably about 5-10 (!!) others who didn't miss their chance to "make a clever face" and "provide a words of wisdom", when nobody needs it anymore  Undecided
