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.
I've noticed that koreans are quite frugal about these things. They wait for the projects to get into an exchange first before doing their DYOR and investing. I'm quite the opposite though. I invest in
science, not fiction. I check for new projects and immediately check the team and its plans and see if its practical. Hodl if needed. I only invest what I can afford to lose anyway. Even if that's the case, I know its going to give something back since its an investment for the future.
