When investing in ICOs, are there times when you invest for a high ROI but don't really care for the cause behind the project? Or do you only invest when you believe the project has a strong use case and feel personally attached?
I am new to BitcoinTalk but I am not new to investing. With all my investments, my criteria is whether I believe in the idea and whether it is something the world needs. In other words, if I don't feel personally invested in the idea, then I won't be investing my money.
For example, there is a new project called
Protex and I invested in their pre-sale because I believe they are going to solve a major issue the entire world has. They are a data security company that will give the power of data back to the users instead of large corporations. All while essentially eliminate data breaches. With a platform that will positively affect everyday of my life, it is easy to be invested in them.
But I want to know your thoughts! In it just for the money?
I think it is very sweet you invest in the project which you find important for humanity. At least this is a good strategy, because if you don't gain profit in such a case you know you tried to make this world better. Does such strategy give you profit mostly?
I think most of people here invest in the project regardless to its idea and focusing on money. I invest in the coins I like for their projects but sometimes I also buy something just to earn some money while selling it afterwards.
To be honest, I am in it for the money in every aspect

Well, I wouldnt join anything if it clearly was illegal and/or morally wrong stuff. But other than that its for the potential money

Yeah, I agree about the morally wrong and illegal part. I never invest in projects which I myself find unappealing like currencies for paying webcams with young girls or used specifically to buy weapon, fake money or drugs. At these cases I don't care how profitable they might be, I just can't invest in them.
