I've been here for years and I can say that following the hype never works for investors, this is simply an advise.
Few examples: Synereo, Savedroid, Electroneum.
Even though these projects managed to get the money they needed and much more, they still didn't manage to deliver what they promised. Or in some cases, not even get listed in decent exchanges or give ROI back.
Cryptocurrencies are not going anywhere and there will be more and more ICOs until these things get regulated (maybe years from now). So If you're an investor and you don't want to stupidly lose your money in the process, I highly suggest everyone to start researching about the projects he's interested in instead of taking his decisions based on Tweets from McAfee, press releases, scores in Icobench, etc.
Yes dude youre absolutely right. ICOs are keep on coming until it is regulated. We all experienced that in the past few years. We didnt get any benefits from those ICOs. Well aside from the bounties. But lets be honest here have you seen an ICO that is world reknowned and used by lots of people around the globe? ICOs as of these moment are very good when it comes on taking the mainstream.
