This is exactly what we are starting to see now.So many ICOs announced since the start of the month, most of which are destined for zero.Your goal for the next few weeks should be to ignore 99% of ICOs and focus on the few really interesting ones.Spray and pray is -EV.Simply ignoring ICOs altogether is not a successful strategy either, as there are still some very promising projects out there.But you gotta protect your capitalwale.moca 🐳 (@waleswoosh):There is a non-zero chance that ICOs end up similar to h ...

You gotta remember that most teams see you as exit liquidity to a point where they will look you straight in the eye and try to sell you a scam.I told this story before, there was one founder whose name I can't mention because I believe I signed an NDA.He offered me a "highly limited FCFS KOL round" for his platform's token at a valuation north of $100M USD.
