Aside from discounted rates when purchasing tokens before public launching, what else can a potential investor benefit from investing in an initial coin offering?
What do they do when the coin comes to a crash when it goes public? How do these companies protect the interests of their investors?
There are actually so many advantages of buying in an ICO. When you buy token in an ICO you can get bonuses that is good for you because you buy and there a extra token given to you. But there are also disadvantages like you dont know if that ICO will follow the ICO price when it is already listed.
Bonuses are one of the most important reasons why the price goes down, the whales buy coins and they receive huge amount of coins for free, they do not have any incentive to hold those coins for long, they want to get rid of those coins as fast as they can so they can get a price close to the ico and if they do then they get instant profits thanks to their extra coins they got from bonuses.
