Title: Things that immediately reveal something is a scam in the crypto space.
Post by: ideas500k.com on November 25, 2019, 11:53:35 PM
1. token swap
2. ICO for a smart contract that isn't coded yet
3. ICO for a coin that will port itself to a mainnet for which there is no code for
4. ICO for a bunch of meme ideas stamped together (artificial intelligence internet of things defi marketplace social media....)
5. fork of something instead of starting a new chain
6. token burn
7. devs hold two thirds of the supply
9. steaking for absolutely no reason

Anything more?

You have listed mist of it, i will like to chip in this,  luring people to invest in scam ICO all in the name of listing on binance later after the ICO,  this is an outright scam indication and one does not need any expert to reveal to him/her that any project that uses the Binance listing charade its a scam.
Another is hosting a private sales on an open telegram group,  private sales are meant to be private so hosting a private sales an i public group its just a desperate means to scam investors ot their money and it can be tagged as a scam tactics

Huge discount price at ICO than actual token value

Fake project team profiles.
