Title: To invest in an ICO, Reviewing of the team behind is necessary?
Post by: yaphetSGG on October 18, 2018, 11:21:48 AM
Most ICO's tend to hide their members behind the project. Is not it necessary to know about the team also who are building an ICO project, including other factors of it?

The project team is a factor in evaluating an ICO. No good ICO does not want to publicize their team, any project that does not publicize their team, I think the project is scam. .

Sure it is necessary. There are so much rubbish projects at the moment, that are simply copy pasting all the team from another project. Furthermore, you need to read the whitepaper and look at the products development. These are the core parts of an ICO success.

No that is not true, most of the real non-scam ICOs will show you their team, names and linkedin profiles. In fact is one of the only things you should need to check on any project.

You need to check every aspect of an ICO if you want to participate in it. You must read the whitepaper and look how many funds were already collected. I would also pay attention to the Roadmap and if the project is following it. Also to check the team members is a must.

Be sure to know the composition of the team. If a project hides members of its team, then this is a very dubious project.

Yes ofcourse for me it's necessary it is method to identify if the project behind of it is true and legit because other Ico project are scam and their team are poser or a fake accounts the other are anonymous having a good background of the team could bring positive in a project.

A little advice, knowing a team behind ICO project does't guarantee how successful such project will end, also, view such team as legit and decide to invest into such ICO project might be disastrous, one thing is sure that before invest into any ICO double check the RoadMap and view how abiding the project is to it RoadMap.

The publication of the dev team or the people behind and ICO is a great way to increase their credibility and as such it will not only make the ICO good but it will be less likey to be called a scam so reviewing it or evaluating it is necessary, unless you really want to be scammed or get into a project that will not have a good value in the long term because regular update from them is needed by the investors to see that the project is moving forward.

Yes, reviewing the team behind of the ICO you’ll be investing is necessary. You must know their background if they had history of scheming or not. Inspecting the whitepaper is very important also. This would be handy incase their ICOs flopped, since you’ll get to ask them yourself what’s the reason behind it.

It is not necessary IF you ignore them.

Have you ever given your assets to who you have never know? If yes, you are a potentially charitable person in real world.

But investing to these ICOs is as throwing money out the window.

It's necessary, the ico that wants to hide their team members should be counted as a suspicious project consider even there was a scam ico that used or steal others identity top be used on their site. It becomes your responsibility to check any ico dude.

It is necessary to do every precautionary measure before investing in any project, just like checking the credibility of the development team, their whitepaper and most of all product but this is not the assurance for a 100% success of the project, it just a way to lessen chances of being a scam or having a shit project.

There's not really a reason why an ICO project wouldn't want to showcase their team (if they're actually good). It increases credibility and investors can get a sense of what the team's strengths are and how that can feed into the project's success.

well its better to the team showed and to know their connections behind, and showing their faces participating in an event or a conference, because of that investors more attracted to their works more transparency. so, i think its necessary.

If an ICO is genuine and they are doing it legally then they will show you full details about the project like team behind the project, contact place and contact details. As everyone knows that their are so many scam ICO are running so to get success in ICO funding it needs to be transparent so that investors should fell secure in investing the project.

In my humble opinion, that is the most important factor when reviewing ICOs to investo into or at least monitor once they are on exchanges and go into position. Check their backgrounds, experience, who they worked with, etc. An organic and massive community on social channels is also important, but only if it is active.

Of course this is one of the important things before you joining the ICO not only the team but almost all aspects you need to learn. But usually there are some projects that hide their identities but are already known in the blockchain world like Bitforex, so it all depends on the project you are going to follow. It's all just my opinion, you better believe your own decision.

Team members and advisers of a project are key criteria to check, to ensure that they are experienced enough to carry out
the project goals. There are projects where not all the team members are public, which does not necessarily means that the
project is scam, but they have to explain what the reason is for that.

There is a lot of scam ICOs in the past and there are more to come. These scammers are taking advantage of the decentralized technology. They are very confident that whatever happens they will be sued or get caught or penalized because no one is overseeing the whole cryptocurrency. So, better to perform due diligence before joining, and part of it is to evaluate and confirm the developers and advisers.

Of course, it is necessary. The identity of the team behind an ICO is a must. If I will be the investor, I will evaluate first behind the idea of creating the project. Their reputation and reliability, their professional background which is important in creating a project that is related to what they know and what they can do. How can you trust a project that hides the identity of their team? I think it is a red flag if there's a project like that, this is just my personal opinion.

Every project have to present his team, his concept, his road map of the project, the plan, and many things we should found that in the whitepaper or in the site, and i think that every project hiding those information is scam.

Its one of the most important factors to know who are the people behind the ICO Project. Its the team who is raising the funds via ICO and if you do not know the real people behind the project, it makes no sense in investing in an ICO. Its more or less like investing in a project ran by strangers and there is no guarantee that they are not going to scam you.

It is really necessary and should be a must for investors because such action will give an initial assumption whether a campaign would be a scam or not. Some ICO projects are scams and since anonymity is present in cryptos, bounty hunters won't be able to do anything about it if they won't be paid for their work. so in order to avoid it early, make ICO team checking a habit. It would be an advantage despite of the time you are using to check upon the informations.

I think the ICO project team should be clear and that everything has been introduced on the website of the WAB or on white paper and 95% of the projects introduce it and if it is not there it is very risky for investors and investors usually if you want to join the ICO see the team whether it is real or not

Yes, to invest in an ICO project you need to consider the team behind the project. What are they like, how effective are they, who is the project leader? These are the factors that contribute to the success of the project and also help you avoid phishing projects. When investing, find out.

If you're interested in investing in an ICO it is important to review everything properly and this includes the team working behind the scenes. If a project is legit and has potential the team's identity will be available and if for some reason it isn't it could mean a potential scam and the reason why they aren't disclosing the identity of the people behind it. So, be careful about investing.

sometimes I find the topic where it discusses the false identity of a team ICO. This is certainly a sign that the ICO is quite prone to be a scam and by seeing the team behind this is compulsory at least. but that does not mean if there is not a clear team identity then it is either a scam. But if you want to safely then look for the obvious would be better.

In my case, i used that as one of many reason for me to join either in their bounty or on their ICO session.
Cause there are case that the list of the team mentioned in the sites is just fake account, and that is one of the indication that the project is fake.

This is absolutely necessary. Investing on a project without knowing the team is like giving money to someone you just met on a train station. They might argue that bitcoin also founded by an unknown entity but the thing is, bitcoin is already a working product then. And it has already proven its worth in this space.

Yeah, its pretty right to study them because I have observed that many people to whom I met in the telegram were some managers at the ICO website page. It was shocking to see them as community manager, some xyz shit manager, etc etc. Now how come people who were just bounty hunters like you and me has become managers within the night. To be honest they are just getting paid to do so and show up their profiles over ICO page. Such projects cant be trusted where there are bounty hunters themselves trying to develop a project. lol.
So yeah, professional team must be there before one can enter into it.

This type of ICO should never be trusted and the funds that they collected showing on their website might also be fake. We should always do further research before investing to an ICO and checking the team members background always is a must.

In my views, a legitimate ICO should be transparent and open to the people wherein team members of the ICO project should be established on their website. Starting with the whitepaper to have a clear information about the project platform and its purpose as well. Bounty managers also pays an important role as part of your consideration in joining an ICO investment and check if it has no red trust rating with a very good reputation. You should probably be suspicious if an ICO does not disclosed the team members in which will give you an idea that there is something wrong with that particular ICO.

Yes I agree with you apart from that we need put effort on our own like researching about the project. Also you can share the information on this forum about the project. If investors lose trust then definitely it will be considered only as a scam project.

Of course, it's very necessary to know the background of the team. Because today, projects that don't want to show their team, will intend to do a scam. That's why if the ICO project wants to succeed then they must be more transparent to investors. If they have many reasons not to reveal who their team is, be aware of fraud.
Some ICO web listings at this time also have a KYC system to verify ICO projects registered on their web to reduce fraud risks to investors and their loyal subscribers.

A strong team behind the ICO gives you probability to conclude projects future, If the ICO not showing the team behind their project then its become very riskier to invest in this kind of projects. Its better to not support projects with Anonymous Teams as there are chances of losses always on the head of investor take example of recent ICO IONCHAIN, The concept of the project was looking promising & a lot investors invested. Later what happened they launched their token on Idex exchange in middle of their Main ICO & were selling their unsold token which they were suppose to burn. Idex exchange team identified their shady activities & immediately DE-listed them but the damage has already happened to investors who invested in the ICOs & as well as to those investors who purchased tokens from the exchange. In this scenario both types of investors can't do anything as the team is anonymous.

Yes reviewing the background of the team is an essential part to be investigated before you tend to invest in any ICO project, as the project is dependent on the team that how much effort they put to make the project successful. And also your funds would be in hand of the team, so make sure the team is legit and won't going to scam or have any sort of intentions to just raise funds and not working on the project, in that case, the token won't be having any value in future & hence your investment will be wasted.

It was in 2016 - 2017 when no one needs the details about the developers but as today you can see lot of scams happening so ICO needs to disclose all details about them if they are genuinely developing the real projects.

In fact, downtrend makes people no longer interested in ICO projects and the good development team is going to feel helpless with this.

I think not most of ICOs to hide identities of their team members. There are some ICOs showing the team identities, commonly they enclose the link of their linkedin accounts and social media.

If you ask me about "review the team info is necessary or not", I strongly say that it is very necessary. For me, it is the most crucial factor that determine the success of an ICO. A quality of team members will lead to the quality of project management and its ideas + plans of the future achievement.

Note: Never invest in ICOs with unclear or lack information of the teams. It is like putting your money in very risky places. Finally you will get nothing and lose your money forever.

some scams use photos taken from other project teams. some project that caught the scam also based on team photos and background profiles of the team project. then it is important to examine more thoroughly the team of the project. the issue of the composition of the team make investors come be a part of marketing.

I see there are several project team which consisted of just a few people, and it also does not correspond to the areas of its expertise, it's become a question mark for me. be careful that such project is usually a scam.

I think we have to know the team of the project when we participate in ico.Because it can show the project background and technology.This is an important part of the project.

Exactly, Team verification before investment is necessary to tackle with fraudulent ICOs. In team verification you can check in brief information about team members like their proffessinal association with organization's and educational details. This brief information is not enough you should also check engagement of community manager, developer and CEO etc this shows their passion about the project to make their project successful. If you found poor presence of the team members in social media community than avoid this kind of projects. Don't invest in project which have anonymous team members and developers as this kind of projects have higher probability of turning out to be scam. Once scam happens you can not take any legal action against them and you will have to bear the losses.

It is mandatory that you check if the persons behind the project say who they say they are and if their credentials are real, I would not have any problem with anonymous developers if they said that from the beginning, but if they try to use the identity of someone else then you know they are scammers.

There may be other reasons behind the hidden identity of team ICO. but of course, the identity should not be covered up because of course, the identity of the team will be very necessary to be known. This will give you an idea of whether the ICO project held by prang the right or not and it may just be the identity of the team will be a new information whether it is a scam or not.

Such a team is a typical team of fraudsters, and no one wants to encounter an ICO created by such a team. Therefore, if we are serious enough, we can distinguish between what is a fake project by team members to avoid being deceived.

The team public reputation goes a long way for project's vision actualization. If the team refuse to make their team public for everyone to see that project might be a potential scam.

if an ICO project tries to hide the identity of their team and all the members that involved in, what happens in my opinion is the opposite, it will not attract investors' attention because from the start the ICO was suspicious, so investors would think it would be better to leave something unclear like that.

Sometimes you research on a coin and you look at their popularity everything and you invest. But in your time if the value goes down no one can do anything, I am not saying you will lose your money.

If I see such an ICO I won’t even need anyone to tell me it’s pure scam. How can others show their members and you will be only one that is having members hidden, that means it’s scam and there is no explanation to be made for it. And it’s good to check out an ICO very well before you go for it. There are some of them that shows their members but at the end up it turns out to be a scam.

That’s true. I don’t see any reason why an ICO would hide its team, that’s very suspicious if it’s true, and it should ring a bell to your ears that this is a scam. I have never seen a legit ICO that has hidden their team why on earth would they do that, unless they don’t want people to trust them?

Professional teams that prepare ICO usually do not hide their data, on the contrary, often people go to the individual and trust them. Therefore, when choosing a project, see the technical documentation, but also plan to collect information about the developers. A quality team will not spoil its reputation.

I have been involved with ICOs since a lot of days, I never saw an ICO project without team members. Scam ICO projects also use someone's profile to claim their team. I don't know where you found an ICO without the team members. Some ICO projects are not like to mention team's list in the official website, you can check their whitepaper, and if their whitepaper hs no team member listed, then avoid that scam ICO. It's easy.
