Yes many ico's are scams they build a fake website and taking advantage their knowledge in crypto to scam people who don't know very well in crypto so peoples are scam. Nowadays it's hard to get a legit ico to join but research is the key.

Those people who have more or less understanding of project evaluations can easily avoid scammers. The other thing is that most people are still naive and continue to believe the loud promises.                  

The securities exchange commission. This is the agency that could bring down nearly every ico project in the future. This is a very pacifistic view point but I'm trying to play devils advocate. If you go off the Howie test which is the test of choice for the SEC pretty much all ICO's are securities.

Ethereum is a centralized ico coin which is less popular than bitcoin, so buy btc 

Ever heard of Yobit? Yobit.net is the right place to find the listings of potential coins and their value and market volume so you'll be able to make informed decisions as to which one to invest in.

Sadly researchers did not make any research on how to identify the legit projects with 99% accuracy or in fact I will put my stakes in may ICO that has 70% of chance for its success in the future. I mean that would be dream come true if there is any analysis that goes like that way, what do we have to loose if we are already loosing thosuand like that.

Also good news is we do have 20% of ICO that are in good position while 8% sure shot ICO which can make it upto the exchangers. Hm, I thought the era of ICO is already finished but there is still ray of hope mate. !

The pump that is going on these couple of days looks a little fake. you may want to not invest for a little while.

Ethereum is on the decline. thus Ethereum will be a fairly affordable price. with such a price provides a pretty good profit opportunity going forward. my estimate of Ethereum would be a pretty expensive price.

I think bitcoin is still the best, and ethereum is under bitcoin, and the popularity of bitcoin is still the best. But if you have your choice, you can buy according to your belief.

everything depend of retailers... I think someone said Amazon or not?

To persuade a person to make a choice in one direction or another is pointless and not necessary. Asking a question he already knows the answer to him initially, but asks only for the purpose to make sure his choice is correct, so I'm sure you have already decided

Why do we need to convince you if you like a coin then make an investment, Surely we can say that the price of ETH is pretty down right now but I am pretty sure that it is a good thing to buy right now because we are so sure that it can recover from a certain down fall, And if you got a few bucks to spare why not invest with both, As you can see bitcoin is the king of all crypto and if bitcoin drop so are well known Altcoins and vice versa when bitcoin surge up so are other Altcoins from this assumption and analysis we can see that bitcoin is more important from any other coins.

This is why ICOs are getting banned on social media platforms and ads. It is just a shame that even good and legit ICOs are getting affected by these scammers. They are destroying a good platform for new businesses. That is why I agree if ICO gets regulated to at least restrain some scammers. I know scammers cannot be stopped from doing ICO scams but at least it can be lessened.

if a scam is a whitepaper that will never happen you can assume 90% are scams or greater regardless of their intentions. The teams are unrealistic at best or outright scammers at worst. I would say eventually investors will be terrified to go near anything that is not almost complete.

Yes they are, and they are making mess at the crypto market, people are confused and governments are worried.
