ICO is all about Destiny but you need to study it first before you join them so that you will not ended like your position right now maybe you already invetigate about them at the beginning but they miserably failed you. Good Luck Next time!
By study what you are referring to? Share with us, so that we don't get fucked up.
It is a common sense that every investor research about the project on the basis of the info available online.
Those info are also delivered by the founders so that they can control how much info you can get.
We as an investor can't check founder's background, can't get his/or team's identity docs as security, and finally can't study the true intention of the founders.
Except all these things, I think every investor checks all the info available.
Basically, investing in ICO is like gambling. You may win or lose, so you better prepare yourself in advance.
