It is better not to go to the ICO, now this sphere is going through bad times. A lot of scams and coins easier to buy on the exchange. Buy coins from the TOP 20 and wait 1-2 years, it will be the best solution.
I would do the same thing: stay away from ICOs and invest in good coins with a lot of potential. I would also split my assets between BTC, ETH, and some other tops coins.
