Title: State of ICO ratings in 2018
Post by: Oleg_P on March 06, 2018, 03:45:35 PM
Hello!

There are more than 30 services, which all aim to provide various ratings on ICOs. So I decided to conduct some research, what is out there that ICO ratings services have to offer us.

In my post I examine the ICO rating services and measure some quantitative and qualitative metrics to get a better understanding of ICO ratings landscape.

Here is a link to full article in my blog:

If you have any questions or ideas please feel free to comment this topic or contact me directly.

maybe a stupid question, but I wonder what you think about the state of ico rating.
from its many rating sites, do you think who is the best and always give accurate recommendations?
we know they are also doing this for money and business, do they provide a truly objective assessment?

I would rather not state that any site particular site is "the best". Even in more stable regulated investment areas (stocks, bonds etc) ratings are considered by many people to be quite shady.

Published the second part of my research of what is there that ICO ratings websites have to offer us.

This part focuses on ICO listings compositions and metrics.

In this part I am going to overview a list of 14 ICO rating services, which have relatively larger ICO listing size (200+ ICOs).

After I visited your blog, I just found out that ICOdrops was more visitors than ICObench.
and now I can easily look up reference ICOs from both web ratings, which I usually only see from ICObench.

Lots of interesting research.

In general, any single ratings service should not be trusted. E.g. just because someone gives an ICO a score of 4.5/5, doesn't mean that it's going to be a good project or a profitable one. This ratings service space, in and outside of the crypto scene, is extremely debated and sometimes completely inaccurate and biased due to a multitude of factors.

Anyone using ICO raters should do their own research before combining with the ratings given by these sites. Don't take their word for it.

the best research we should do ourselves and discuss with our community. it's all about money and business, do they want to make something for free? I doubt it

State of ICO ratings in 2018?

I think some of this ICO rating platforms are not sincere or rigthfully examine those ICO Campaign that turn to be scam after raising a lot of funds from the Investor the Classic example is the DENARO ICO Campaign how they got those High rating from those ICO rating platforms if they dont know the team behind Denaro ? they give those ratings in the purpose of trust but how come they turn into scammed?thats a big questions that need to be answer.
