Title: Tokens: Better Marketing vs Better Product
Post by: MeSoCorny on December 24, 2017, 02:49:07 AM
I recently ran across 2 different tokens that looked promising to me. One was very well marketed and hyped up, and has indeed tripled in value from weeks ago. However, many people discussing the people running the token said they were horrible with keeping their delivery promises and had no milestone markers for project completion. They stated the main devs/ CEO were horrible about keeping the community informed on their progress. There were some in the comments section talking about how they had had enough and sold because they didn't know if they would ever actually release the product and would not keep them informed. But as stated, this token has tripled in value in last couple of weeks.

Looking through their comments I ran across another token of similar technology. Those in the comments spoke of how they had better devs for their project and kept the community informed, and how they met their milestones every time. But, they were also still very small because, as many complained of in their community, they were terrible at marketing and most people didn't even know they existed. This specific coin is up 50% from that time. But many in their community fear it will never go anywhere because as they say "history is full of products that never went anywhere because nobody knew they existed."

So which is more important, such as in these cases, choosing a product with better marketing/ less devoted team to keeping delivery promises/ maybe weaker devs, or a product more devoted to milestone/ delivery promises/ better devs, but no one knows they exist because they have no marketing.

Which one is likely to prevail in the long run? The better quality team seems like the right answer, but I don't think that's always the case.
