Use different email like if you going to create an account in trading site or gambling

In ICO I think better to rely in their past movement then do invest after that like aion and lunch

We can also use 2FA for the safety of our money then try also a little investment only

Well, 3 months is early. At least half a year (depending on the roadmap ofc) a product with mvp or -even better- a beta version application would tend to rise more quickly. A project with more research and development on the way would need more time to gain value.

Is there a possibility of a scam if my tokens have no value for 2 months? I already have the tokens for 2.5 months and they keep telling us that listing is a laborious thing to do. Is that a normal thing to happen when your coin doesn't have any value for 2.5 months now?
2.5 months is still early to say that your tokens fall to be a scam.
I remember holding also for a long time (I'm bit sure if its longer than 2.5 months) but now that token is alive and kicking.
I still hold some tokens with no values for more than half a year but I still have my hope on some of it.
2.5 months is not too long and still much time to wait to make sure everything. Scam or not is not depending of the time. Every asset has its own roadmap which will explain when the asset hit the exchanger. Maybe till more than 1 year but its not many coin list till 1 year but just think the worst case which happen.

I think it’s not normal, probably the developer is not focusing on the vision of their coin to be in exchanger maybe they have different plans so better you check with the team and ask about it. The very long period of time is too suspicious for the legit ICO and so it’s a 90% scam, how good the whitepapers or roadmaps they have but they didn’t do in action it’s no use just a piece of trash.  Embarrassed

Too long you have to wait 2.5 months, forget that token, my friend. Because you lose time and material waiting for things that are not sure. try looking for information in a community like their telegram, ask for certainty about your token

depending on the ico. listing a coin in exchanges comes in different way. there are some exchange that demand for huge amount of money before listing your coin and there are some that does collect small money while some may be free. I think most ico this days do not want to list their coin on time especially when the coin is not an utility token. some of them will continue with their roadmap and list the coin if they discover they have reach certain level of rigidity.

it could be posible mate that some ICO intend not to finish there projects and will turn into a scam. this really happened especially those you received from airdrops, because if there projects didn't reach there soft cap and they already giving airdrops to the community they will not going to continue the said project. but if you have coins that has no market value just hold it. maybe someday that coin will have a market value or they can find any big investor to invest with the said project.

This is common. But behold, already has a price but not disclosed to the public. that often happens is they confused choosing Exchange crypto layout later placed. but for a small possibility I think it is a scam because the distribution but does not yet have a price.

Many token was a scam for now but if it is came from the bounty then just wait until it will list on exchange because i have also a token that was 4 months old and still doesn't have any value listing on best exchange was taking too long so better to wait until it was have a value.

It depends on it sir. Sometines it last 2 months because it is not yet on the market. Or maybe projecr has veen failed and not been sponsored. Just with until 6 months if it still not, then it is scam.

Where did you get your tokens from airdrop or bounty?

If the token is from airdrop then its likely to be a shitcoin thus dont expect too much especially airdrop tokens usually are just scam.

On the other hand, if your tokens are reward from bounties and there's a progress in their project then be patient because its not easy to list the coin it takes time especially in popular exchanges out there.

It is too early to tell that your coin is a scam but it could be if there is no improvement for the succeeding Months. My advice is that if your campaign manager can be contacted make sure to try. And if ever you were scammed, which I hope not.  Make sure to avoid those kind of ICO.

I still hold some tokens with no values for more than half a year but I still have my hope on some of it.
It's depend on you bought from exchange, ICO or receive from bounty reward, I've too many tokens no value for more than 3 month or lose 70% value from ICO price, I still holding it because hope it'll give me surprised later and getting price pump, maybe we need to patience because it's really need time to listed on big exchange

yeah if you get from bounty or ico you will be more patient because need more time to be listing in the market
remember that new token from ico has a roadmap and all running on the roadmap

Most of the projects agree on a listing with the major stock exchanges in advance. If this does not happen, there are questions about the seriousness and professionalism of the project team. You have no choice but to wait and be patient. If you urgently want to sell your ERC-20 tokens, try manually adding them to the EferDelta for example.

There are, of course, different situations. Sometimes the ICO team has missed something and did not do it right on time. It is necessary to wait a little more, while also trying to find out the possible cause of the delay. However, the fact that the token does not appear on the exchange is no longer good and should be alarming.

for 2 months early still something to say. We must wait at least six months. Many projects swing for a long time at the start. They need time to enter the exchange
True. It is highly probable that you'll end up waiting for the token to be listed, and probably have another wait for the boom of the token. You should go check their roadmap and see anything related to the project launch, weeks after that will probably be the best time to sell.

I suggest you interact with the community and ask for proofs and such, to verify the legitimacy of the project. Look for loopholes on whitepapers and the team composition -- check their background. There are many ways to check if the project is a SCAM, you just need to read. Also, do this before joining, so you won't have problems like this as you go through the project.

When reading your post, I am sure you have joined the airdrop and received a Token from them, right? Most of the time, I can assert that all airdrop campaigns have the general purpose of collecting personal information, the crypto most of which have no value and are not indexed on trading floors unless it's an airdrop campaign for bounty members!

This is not from an airdrop. This is from a bounty campaign. The project is named as SocialMedia.Market.

Nowadays a lot of airdrops just collect your information and will drop you a shittoken or a display only token in your wallet

I think it's too early to panic. 2.5 months very little. I think you should wait and see the news in the telegram group. If this was a scam, then immediately after ico the team would disappear.
