In 2017 when ICOs were popping up day after day, investors only had a limited amount to invest in projects. Many of them were scams therefore if you were fooled once, you would not want to invest again no matter how lucrative the project appeared. Binance was obviously one of the those rare success stories but countless others failed.

As with many of these types of investments, you have to be in the right place at the right time otherwise the opportunity passes you by. That 2017 ICO era is over, I doubt we will see anything like that again.
