According to recent recearch, 56% of 2017 ICOs fail. And you know what? That's OK. 90% of startups fail but the rest grow so high that they compensate venture investors 90% loss and provide very high profits.
So the basic rules with ICOs are very simple:
1. Do the research before you invest
2. Diversify, diversify, diversify
3. Ignore news and HODL
56% is a very good result. This number is subtracted from another 50% scam ICO. I will not ignore the news. Perhaps because of this, many will not be able to exchange their coins because blind faith in the project. It is not necessary to do so.
