It is an exciting time to be investing in cryptocurrency, at a time when there are so many exciting new projects. To find one with the greatest chance of success a few things need to be considered:
  
The team fielding the ICO

Token model

Visibility/popularity.

Having looked at various ICOs currently on offer, I am convinced that BankNet have one of the most solid chances at success. The BankNet team has come up with a very viable model that aims at engaging the three major industries: banking, insurance at real estate. It aims to create a platform on which these three industries can be revolutionized and bring about the golden age of fast, simple and secure digital currency transactions.

I'd take the visibility ,no single thing to hide and they should come out plain but the popularity? Not all good ICO projects will be popular in an instant since they are still very new,popularity begins when the product the project is introducing is a very special and not repetitive one

If I were you, I would not stop at one project, as if even a project at the hearing is not a guarantee of success in the market, you can find examples of projects that were at the peak of popularity but then became a common scam.

These three things or the things you wrote in the post really need to be considered, but now the ICO trend is diminishing again, because most people already trust the IEO so that they need better polish in the ICO so that people can trust to ICO.

Too late we're on the IEO era now, I just want also to correct you. It's not just about the model and the team of the project the most important thing is the solution of the project to the problem and how they will solve it through their project. There are new developers or team and no experience but they can build a project which can be used today and in the future.

No matter how amazing an ICO or IEO is, it absolutely foolish to invest in one now.
And that has nothing to do with the quality of the project itself.
If you do find something you want to invest in, then just wait a little.
Wait for it to be listed on an exchange, the price will drop, and 90% of the time you can get it cheaper than ICO prices.

If you end up buying it during ico and it drops, then you basically have no other option than to hodl.
But if you are smart, and buy it when it is lower, you are free to actively trade and increase your capital.
I would say, the only time it is beneficial to do an ICO, is when the market is in a full bull run.
But even then, you have to be very careful with what you choose and when you sell.

Its still not recommended to invest on ICO but I would encourage the IEO if its a supported by good exchanges like Binance because they are sure to be added on the exchange. Thought its not assured the price to spike but its still going to be a token with good volume on it that you can trade. The only who will dump will be those who receive few from exchange airdrop.

I don't think the listed criteria are ways to find or know a good projects. I have seen good teams and yet project failed. Scammers can design even more better token model than you can even imagine. Visibility is a good aspect which is quite hard to find

I often go to the websites of big venture capital funds like Signum Capital, Hashed, etc. There will often be new projects where they invest or germinate. A project invested by large VCs will have a lower risk ratio.

ICO ??
Wahaha ICO is dead ;D, we are entering IEO trend era right now. Now people (especially me) have more interest to invest their money in IEO than ICO...
The simple tips from me to successfully earn profit from IEO is you just need to participate IEO which is provided by good reputable exchange Like Binance, Okex, Kucoin, or Bitforex and then you will be rich...  ;D

Yes it is exciting to be here but exciting to invest with new projects? I don't think that it will work out. As you can see everyone is commenting about on how bad ICOs these days and if you will analyze it, only few people invests to ICO these days.

I can't see that this Banknet can do something better because most of the ideas that these ICOs are proposing, they were all the same.

Investment should be carefully analyze and if possible always reassess your decision before making any entry, don't focus with only one
but splitting is a must to counter a possible mistakes, you have to make sure that the value of your money always got the good potentials
to have better growth.

Even with those tips you would end of finding a very promising scam initial coin offering. It's high time we all accept that the initial coin offering can not be as it was but by the way it was that same good effect it had in 2017 that made it an attraction to scammers let's all channel our funds to something safer

ICO is not used much by investors for the long term, because in my opinion ICO scamers are rampant, switching to IEO is a good thing where we know that our funds can be secured, and I have never seen IEO hit by scammers?

I think yes, the IEO is better now than the ICO, I began to be interested in the IEO because previously there was a very promising project in Binance namely Harmony (ONE). It's useless if they launch ICO, because scammers are smarter in making fake concepts then they go with the money they get.
Projects with good concepts without having a good partner in my opinion are a small number of scammers who want to cheat.

I think transparency is a key determining factor of a good project. When a project doesn't see any need to hide anything then the project is worth investing. On the other hand, when a project is not transparent then scam is smelling.

That's why we now have IEOs which is a setup from ICO that had no form of security. Now each exchange used for IEO are responsible for the security of investors fund and carryout a successful crowdfunding. IEOs are much better than ICO although as an investor you still have to be vigilant as scammers can leverages on IEO too to scam users of their funds.

yes I also agree with you regarding the ICO project that Visibility / popularity is the main thing that needs to be considered in the project to grow investor confidence as well. if the project has quality products and the team is also clear it will certainly bring good results in the market later.

Investments in ICO have practically become obsolete. On the threshold of a new model of promoting projects in the form of IEO. It is more attractive to potential investors due to better protection from fraud and the possibility of early access to the stock exchange. But IEO is not a panacea for all sorts of misunderstandings, and perhaps we will soon see something more attractive and reliable. Life does not stand still and the development of new ideas and technologies goes on as usual.

I really remember threads like this where the ICO period was very good at that time with no widespread fraud and others and at the moment it is not appropriate to share something like that to everyone who knows that ICO is not in good condition and not much talked by an investor, of course the IEO is talked about a lot here because most people say that the IEO is a new breakthrough in promoting projects in a safer and better way, so I think you are following something new.

Firstly looks like trend has changed from icos to ieos and from famous person as advisor it has changed to big or multimillion dollar company backing or supporting the project either as partners or as seed funders, this trend is gaining moment because investors have become more careful and want to invest in big and legit projects only.

I do not like investing in icos but if anyone is going to do it, the first question they should ask themselves is what problem is being solved by the coin in question, if the developers cannot answer that question then everything else does not matter, even if a coin has popularity and many people behind it you can be sure the coin will eventually crash, and while you may be wiling to take such risks I am not willing to invest my money and then become a bag holder unable to sell my coins because no one wants them anymore.
