Most especially new projects do you think its healthy to rush things up or take a lot of time and gradually release updates and follow roadmaps slowly? There are some complains that most projects aren't following the exact timing on their roadmap and some even takes this is Red Flag.

You that asked the question honestly know the best practice but I am surprised you still put up the question. Well, since there is a question there will be an answer. The former is a better practice or approach than the later.
My concern is where you said of taking alot of time. You must not take alot of time. Too much delay is dangerous for a project. Every project should have an estimated project duration and it is based on the stipulated time that the team members will work towards. In this industry, it is all about timing and trend, when you waste alot of time before releasing your project, the time it was supposed to get the required hype might pass and your project will struggle and eventually die off.

I personally think that a slight delay was not a problem as long as the project developers can deliver what they have written in their roadmap. The thing might be different if they were giving a very long delay. that may make investors feel bad with it.
You must also know that if that was also a red flag to the project caused by the dev was not competence to continue its development.

Projects that take too long to deliver or follow a roadmap of their own are either lazy or have no good plan for the project, before developers introduce their project and open the gate for investors to start investing they must have to know where they are heading, some new projects just create a website and tell people what they are planning (still planning) to do and my dear brothers and sisters this can take like forever.

There are no good results upon rushing. It was best to put everything is well-prepared and must be working. In fact, there is no reason why these new projects have to be in hurry aside from their evil intention (scam). If we are going to invest be sure that the project is already finished, it was an ideal and a big factor to consider as this will be the basis that this project will become successful. That is why research must be done before investing, a wrong choice of project to invest ended up nothing but losses.

Being in a hurry will not make sense, you will just experience a lot of problem along the way so its better to take this slowly but surely. Always follow the roadmap because this is the basis of the investors and if they see that you are not following your own timeline with a lot of delay and changes, you can expect to lose a lot of investors. Making a good project will always take time and will take a lot of effort, you should avoid getting in a hurry especially in entering in cryptomarket.

It's preferable when a project stands out for integrity. It feels better when the project publishes her road map and sticks to it. The road map was designed and published by the project without interference from the community. The project should consider every modality and strategy before coming out with a road map.

It's careless for them to go back on their word after telling the community about the plans and duration of execution. It only shows that the team are disorganized and lack the necessary skills to get this done properly and timely.

I think you just need to sort it out every time you see new projects and their roadmaps, because not all of those new projects will work according to their roadmap. So you still need to research and verify every new project that appears at this time, because without stronger support for new projects now, they will find it difficult to develop as many people or employers expect.

It's not easy to create a platform it takes money and skills and determination of the people behind the project, for me, it doesn't matter if they go fast or slow as long as they are transparent and do not make up a lot of promises and create useless hype on their project, I am ok on a steady growth making sure that they are on target and they fulfill on their promises, some projects are tagged because of dishonesty on their whitepaper and their capability, once you feel that they are being dishonest it's time to leave this kind of project.

if the project does not match the roadmap I think it can be said that it is dangerous,
because a fundamentally good project is a roadmap that goes well, but if not it will be a question,

This topic reminds me of bull season where many developers always rush up their projects just to ride along with Bitcoin pump, right now some projects decide to stop launch because we are in bear market and to me that's a red flag, if projects can't stick to their plan in any market condition they knew they are likely going to fail.

The development team, marketing team and very important is the management team. Only the management can make a schedule on the projects progress and push the development team to make things faster according to the requirement. Marketing team on the other side needs to work, so that people get to know about that particular project even before the launch. Combined effort is much required.

Just follow everything that has been presented at the right time. That's what investors want, to be at the right time and do everything what they've said.
If it's on the road map, just do it and there's no excuse for that because all of those things are planned when they're about to launch. Delay of updates is what people don't like and that's why it makes a lot of them disappointed when there's already an expected update to do.

It is never healthy to rush things up.  What is the most important in a newly created project is the timing.  Of course, the project should follow the roadmap and it is always a good sign if the roadmap is delivered before the promised date.  There is a huge difference between rushing and delivering early.  And delayed delivery of the road map is a red flag that the development team isn't up for the task.

Many projects have the excuse of delaying their things, but it will show how dedicated they are to achieve their targets. A lot are delaying their tasks because of insufficient funds or lack of it. So if they can't raise their targets, high likely that their planned activities will be delayed. This is why if the projects wants a continuous implementation of their roadmap, they need to secure private funding so it won't deter their activities.

Yes, things don't always go as smoothly as we would like and especially with technology, little mistakes and petty mistakes are common, can sympathize with them about the delay as long as they provide the best updates to the users.

But don't be too late or be late for appointments again and again. that would raise suspicion of them, maybe they didn't do it and purposely bought time to prepare for their escape because they failed...

It's healthy if the project have their own plans on how to sustain the business in long term, there's no rush if you are building a great project because it always take time. Have you seen the rushed projects? Look at them now they are no where to be find. Always follow the roadmap, its very important because that is your target date and if  you are able to meet those timeline, for sure the investors will trust the project more. Also, its better to update the roadmap from time to time, because as I can see most of the old projects now failed to update their roadmap, and it looks like they also forget to work with the updates on their platform which is not good at all.

Gradual updates but still following the development roadmap was a good sign for the project to show if it is still competence. The fact that if these days so many projects were always running to another way and they forget what their main aim based on the roadmap.
that's why seeking for the healthy project that is still consistent with its plan was a good sign. You can see bunch of projects were being consistent has become a very big thing.
Even ethereum was always following its roadmap even though there would be a delay for the execution.

Consistency and activeness are important for us to see if a project is healthy or not. Even if it's gradually slow as long as they're doing the right thing to pursue the success of the project then that's another good sign. I've seen how some projects rushed things out without concrete planning and ended up as rag pull. It's better if they will take steps slowly but surely.

Rushing things up is never a good idea especially when we consider the nature of cryptocurrencies, a single mistake can be more than enough for hackers to take advantage of the situation and steal millions of dollars, and we have examples of this almost every week, so without a doubt it is better for the developers of new coins to take their time when developing their coins and even more importantly to not impose themselves milestones they will not be able to achieve, because when they fail to follow their roadmap and fall behind it their investors will begin to lose confidence in them.

If the team is delayed with the development of the project, then there may be 2 reasons for this, one of which is inadequate funding, and the second is the lack of an experienced team. Both of these reasons have a negative impact on development and may eventually lead to the fact that all work may be suspended.

I think that the dates seen on the road maps are only an estimation but they can't be accurate. This is the reason why sometimes we are seeing delays and there are times when the development seems to be fast. It's hard to judge if you are only focusing on these things.

For me, as long as the team members are honest and dedicated for the success of their project, I will understand if there are delays but I will be glad if the developments are fast enough. I won't think negatively. For some, maybe they can see delays as a red flag and then when the developments are too fast, they think the teams are rushing their work and this affects the quality of the project.

Of course, slow is sure, haste easily leads to unexpected errors leading to damage to the project and investors. The attack on the solana network and the confirmed failure was caused by the slope wallet, which is an example of haste and sloppiness. Crypto is the market where most of the new technologies are concentrated so we need to be very careful, if the project goes on schedule, the better but if there is a slight delay, it's okay as long as they always try to create a product best product.

A healthy project moves steadily toward a goal even if it's new. Ideally, users want to know when a product will be released especially if they are already interested in joining providing users with information is important so that they do not feel that the product is faulty, does not function as advertised, that their needs are ignored, and/or that the company behind the product does not exist.

I think if people have a choice, they want to see the project done quickly and that's human nature. However, I also believe that it is more important for a project to be completed well than to be completed quickly. As long as the team is working hard and making progress, I don't care how long it takes, as long as I get something good in the end.

A good project for me is something that sticks to their roadmap and continues to build it even if the market is at its bear season. Some failed projects during the last bull run rush their project that their only goal is to take advantage of the hype and milk people's money. They didn't planned properly their roadmap resulting for sudden changes if they realize it's not feasible which causes their investors to lose confidence.

You know what, they should put it on their minds that "first impression, lasts". And that's where the investors are getting encouragement to trust them and believe them on what they're doing with the project they're working. Because if they can't deliver the best results through it then they should haven't placed that promise because it is the reason why investors are investing. With those promises and thing they say, that's how most investors are hooked to a project.

If they are not going to follow the roadmap then definitely they ran into some sort of trouble “genuinely or intentionally”.
If its genuine then they should be able to explain their investors and it better be justifiable. If this does not happens and its intentional then I am sure projects screwed and they wont be able to explain this to their investors.

Rushing the things is a very risky decision. You may being ended up with bunch of vulnerabilities and this is potentially making your investors into the big advantage, slowly following the roadmap is far better rather than developing to the app as fast as possible without consider about how many bug available in the app. I think that people know that so well but that's your choice. I think that the first choice was the worst thing.

Slow and steady growth is more healthy for any crypto project, I am not talking about those moonshot projects that are released to take advantage of a bull market, always do your own research and never invest more than you can afford to lose, the best advice I can give is good reliable projects are built when all things looks hopelessly for example ( Bear Market ).

Roadmaps are made to be ignored. To me all roadmaps are bullshit because none of that really matters to the outcome if the project does not have any intrinsic market making capability - that is to generate a demand for their coin. Without that no coin will ever go up and the project will eventually lose investors as they will dump after the advisors end their lock-in and cause the first big dump.

Truely speaking, this type of pump and dump markets will gradually lose its charm among investors, something that has happened with ICO and why they changed their name to IEO and so on.

It is better to just invest in well known altcoins or simply bitcoin than go for these rug pull schemes.

Personally, I can say that now there are a lot of different projects that are just empty shells. And if the project is really worthwhile, then it is worth investing in it. But since the cryptocurrency market is falling or growing, problems arise in the project, and the timing changes because of this, so you just need to be patient and get your profit a little later. So there are problems in business too. So in projects, too, sometimes there are problems of this kind.

slow and steady growth is always good and it could gets considered as natural growth, regardless if the team in doing the gradual updates are doing it slowly that it quite literally stray away from the roadmaps then it could become a sign that the team isn't really committed in their own project, and that could means that you better take away your investment from these project since there's big chance that the result will be this project flops.

You can't rush art, OP. Maybe with a little luck, you could get something out of a business from rushing but just by not following the roadmap simply speaks for itself for the project.
Roadmaps could change, but the changes should still stick to the methodology. This might not be related to crypto, but even in my own study back then, we just rushed in to write our conclusion with a little sample and population and we ended up scrapping the project because our panelists were not satisfied with the results.

if you ask about a healthy project, then it can be seen from a clear team, a large community, a project that continues to grow and the results can be enjoyed, and run according to the roadmap they made. maybe some will change their roadmap for the better.
however, based on what you said, such as updating slowly, not following their roadmap time, it might be labeled as a bad project, but if they still maintain their principles and try to improve it, then it can be seen from the next development .
on the other hand, you can see that the project is not healthy if the team is not clear, the roadmap is not clear, the community is not that much, the project is not yet running, the funds raised are minimal, and many more.

Roadmaps are made to be a guide rather than an exact concrete plan with exact dates. It's just to show the investors and members that they actually have a plan like having it released in Q1 or Q2 or something like that. I don't think that it's automatically a red flag because plans are plans and it's important that they are doing something about it rather than nothing, right?

In life, there's no "exact" timing with everything. It takes time to build the perfect project.

It is risky to rely on project that doesn't follow their road map. Road map is suppose to look like a mini contract between developer or team and those investing on it. Investors look at the road map to understand the future plans and achievements based on the time for the project. Therefore if a project doesn't follow the the road map or abandon it totally, it is risky. If the roadmap achievement is delayed by any circumstances, the public should know about that.


Sure there is no timing because certain circumstances may cause plans to change but regarding for investment, the team can inform the community of what is happening and delays to achieve the road map with evidence and not keep quiet or block others who complain in their telegram channel. If a team refuse to update community of how their investment has gone so far or block them off, definitely that project is scam.

If all roadmaps can be resolved quickly, of course it is better to run faster, I think it doesn't matter if it can jump over the roadmap and this makes investors optimistic, for example if the hardcap target when ICO is planned for 3 months but a month has been achieved then the developer will immediately step faster to the next process.

Because that is where the investors are basing where the project should be, the roadmap. If you will do things differently like rushing some updates there will be consequences, and one of those can be a negative reaction from those who believe the developer should just be following their proposed timeline.
I prefer just following the roadmap.
If ever they will inject new things then they should be sure it's not part of that. Just keeping up with new things that are happening.
Been a follower of different ICOs up to the NFT project and most of the time those who rush it just because some group of investors is ranting about the slow movements have all failed.
You can listen to their cries but be sure to not be affected by them. It's possible those are the people who are looking for rush money and didn't even took a second to read the whitepaper.

I think the most important thing is consistency, I mean if you the project can make a big break-through and awesome development in fast-pace so it's good, but then do they keep making good development, or the project just stuck after those break through, if it's the later then the project will most likely fail. But even if the project has slow development, but consistent, and at the end of the day the can reach their goal, the project will most likely to be succeeded.

it will be healthier for those who strictly follow their roadmap. I saw many of them stalled due to market conditions so the delay brought the roadmap to a halt and the community faded away. I understand being in a negative market will definitely have an impact on public sales and launch prices but I think it will break even with the trust from the community for a project that always follows the roadmap on time.

But your second statement is true for 99% of the projects out there. ::)

Roadmaps may be delayed but that does not imply a hugely developing project but an abandoned project in a 50-50 case basis, but in crypto is ends up being the second on in 99% of cases. This is simply because here there is nothing called "investor protection". I agree to that argument that crypto is a wild west and people are responsible for their own investments ("grow up" semantics by many people) - even then a professionally done investment needs some justice.

Roadmap, Whitepaper, Tokenomics are buzzwords created by ICO owners (=scammers in disguise). This has been proven in the last 5years and therefore I recommend newbies to stay away from them.

delay and maturation of one project does not mean that the project failed, because as we all know it takes a process, if the project does not match the road map, I think it's normal that behind it there must be a reason why it's outside the map,
but this can also make investors retreat slowly when the road map does not match reality

As an investor, it was a big factor in choosing a project that has already been established, not just about to start as this possibly ends up scamming and losing your money. Those complaints that you have heard are true and valid, most of the new projects are shortcuts, they want easy money bringing back the capital too fast. But unfortunately, this never helps to become successful as it literally needs investors that are willing to stay and sadly they are not due to their lousy performance and ain't following their roadmap.

That’s a problem that new projects have because they do not care about the aftermath of the release. They care about the situation they are in until they make their money, when the team gets their funding and then the project gets hacked or anything, all they think about is the fact that they still have the money for it and that’s fine.

As long as we have teams behind projects that only care about their own situation and that’s fine, we shouldn't really be shocked about it because they would of course think about their pocket first. But the ones that care about creating a new thing, a new innovation to blockchain tech? That’s what will go up a lot for sure, and that’s what we should invest into.

I can recall one of my colleagues joining one of the NFT hypes that was a casino-related and they surely waited for the mint of the NFTs this June, but it turned out to be just a dud. The NFT sale got delayed and they were forced to halt the marketing campaign and just focused on getting sales for now.
There are times that these happen and it sucks for them.

I think having delay is okay as long as there is reasoning behind it and considering the fact that if the delay was truly necessary and if they forcefully push their development then the results will be bad.
I think even startups in real world are also having delay and that's definitely fine. Moreover I think these delays are kinda irrelevant with the value of the coin itself since usually the result is the thing that matters more.

It is common that developers do not care about it, after all since we have so many coins in the market developers feel they need to give results as fast as possible to gain the attention of the community, but the problem with this approach is that sooner or later a hacker may realize of the several weaknesses that exist in the code and then they will take advantage of it, but by the time the hack is discovered there is not much to do, and the project and their developers will lose their reputation and the ability to bring fresh funds to their project.

I personally believe if a project that can follow all of its roadmap will become a healthy project and why? this project can fulfill their promise and so the developers show its competence to develop the future of platforms. You can imagine if the developers already mentioned big exchange listing on its roadmap and then it comes true and you will be getting a lot of benefit from there. This is why always following the project that can fulfill their promise is a must

I think they act according to the state of the market. If the market goes well, they explain the developments on their roadmap. If the market goes bad, they delay the developments on their roadmap. They create a story for themselves. I don't blame them because they act in their own best interests. I think it's bad behavior, but they have to do it.

There should be a respective timeline for their development plans, why rush things? Any good significance in doing that?

Aside from that, it's not even possible to do such rush plans as it might just result in poor execution.

That's why there's a timeline to give time to fully prepare for those respective tasks on the lineup.

It's common that most projects can't follow their roadmap but they should provide a valid reason for such delays. If it's reasonable, then you can extend your patience. If it's not, then clearly the project is not serious about doing their best to meet its goals.

What new projects need is how they can enter the market and be accepted by people so that they are willing to trade or buy and sell activities or invest in tokens or coins from the new project. The more developers have a lot of money, the better because they can list their new tokens on top exchanges or carry out various promotions so that the project is very famous, especially during listings so that it attracts people to trade.
Furthermore, after being able to attract many people, the next task is to develop the product or use case of the token. In addition, by providing strong developments according to the roadmap, it can make the project solid, especially considering the holders and community of the project.

The Roadmap is a sort of basis to see that the developer is following the plan and the basis of its transparency to know where it was. It certainly takes so long if they follow the roadmap and in most cases, developers find a way to make shortcuts but unfortunately, this will lead to a worse scenario and make investors think there is something behind this project that turns them off from trusting.

They should have not done this in the first place once the roadmap is already published just to stop avoid any negative speculations. Or trust issues.

Strictly following the roadmap is something everyone wants, but as you say, it is difficult or even impossible because there will be so many impacts that we cannot foresee. The delay is there, we can sympathize with them as long as they always update and give regular reports to investors instead of delay and silence.

Well if that project follows exactly the roadmap and the date still more or less then the project is doing fine I guess, many projects delay their progress nowadays because bear market as their excuse. They want their progress done along with a pump on their token price since in this bear market many people leave crypto there are not many people left who want to invest in a new projects. Rush everything absolutely not healthy as a new project.

Usually the delay is coming from the lack of funds or having insufficient funds.
So most projects can't move forward if they have no funds to begin with.
They have very good concept but if they can't secure funding, that's when they won't follow their roadmap.
This is why it is better to tap private investors if you do have promising concept. Don't rely from public sale.

Delays may be considered but doing shortcuts can make some negative assumptions about the legitimacy of the project and a sort of negative speculations. I guess we don't want to see the project with that as we know that TRUST is very important. That is why they should have to do their best to follow what has been stated on the roadmap, otherwise it could be a reason for the investors to become doubted and might their option not to invest this anymore.

If things are rushed then it looks like these projects are not really serious.

How can they provide a better service if they are rushing things? How can they be sure that no problem will arise if they rushed their development? A good project shouldn't rush and should follow its roadmap at any cost.

If things were executed properly and smoothly on the roadmap, that's a + for investors and they might attract people too to be involved in their project.

a new project that is slightly off the roadmap. or late to meet the roadmap. sometimes a potential scam. Healthy projects usually don't prompt them to buy. projects that are too many orders to buy with the lure of crazy profits really need to be wary of.

That's why it's still important for a new project that will appear in the world of cryptocurrency to immediately have a Whitepaper, Roadmap, Team management, and transparency, especially if it will be managed by Bounty Managers whose criteria should be like those of reputable ones. BM here in this forum such as @Icopress, @Darkstar, @Cryptobrainboss, and others who rank high here in this platform can be said to be an advantage in the new projects that they will manage here.

Also, I don't mean that all the newbies who manage a project here in this forum are not legit, that's not what I want, as long as there is a development that is happening well and agree with their flow in the roadmap, it can be said that one this legitimate project of course.

Nowadays, there are very few publicly funded projects, the ICO form of crowdfunding is no longer active. As can be seen, current projects have raised hundreds of millions of USD from angel investors and large investment funds.
Therefore, lack of capital is not possible with top projects.
I think what causes their delay could be some technical issue like in case of ADA they are always late with their updates, but they still work hard and always update important information for investors, updates once released are almost error-free.

The majority of investors are impatient, they can take projects that are fast in setting up their platform but they are impatient on projects where there's too much delay in the implementation of the roadmap and setting up the platform, they want to see action, updates and see if the developers are really capable, projects never get bad feedbacks if they rush things but they deserve a flag for so many delays, I don't trust projects where there are the absence of updates.

The roadmap is indeed very important for a project, especially to attract investors and the trust of the community and the roadmap must run according to the date,
but if a project with good fundamentals fails to carry out several roadmaps, I think there is no problem, because they must have reasons, it doesn't mean their project failed. ,
for example Ethereum, Ethereum had promised a roadmap for ETH 2.0 which was launched last year, but unfortunately there was a problem, and finally did it this year.

Yes, the majority of investors want development to speed up and you're right about that. But missing the timeline in the plan roadmap for a young and upstart project show this team can't keep up with what they've promised. Bad planning, missing deadline, ETA for roadmap being a placebo and not accurate at all,... All of those are signs showing this project is not worth and seems too risky.

Roadmaps are not that kind of important in the timing of it. What roadmaps tell me is the fact that they are aiming for some things, and I would love to learn what those things are. If you know what they are aiming at then you would be able to see if they have a good plan or not. That's what a roadmap is, it's just a plan that they have and sometimes they have a great idea and sometimes they do not have a great idea.

This is why I personally believe that the best thing to do would be making sure that they know what they are doing. I personally check the roadmap and see if a project is worthy or not by seeing if they actually have any real idea what they are doing.

Investors are always look for the roadmap of the project and if there’s a lot of delays, that is already a red flag for them which can force them to pull out and buy other project instead. Its ok to take slowly as long as the project is working according to their timeline, but honestly delays are already part of the new projects and even the old one, they still have delays. Rushing the project to get live even if its not ready yet is also a bad decision, take time with your work and be more innovative so investors can find the project valuable.

Good projects will always keep their promises. Moreover, new projects that want to attract the attention of many investors must really ensure that
the roadmap runs according to the scheduled time. Because if new projects run the roadmap there is a delay and it doesn't match the previously
set date, this can reduce investors confidence in these projects. In contrast to what happened to Ethereum they experienced a delay in the launch of
ETH 2.0, many investors can understand it because Ethereum already has a good reputation. While new projects that are still building their reputation,
should be punctual in executing the roadmap to be able to give a good impression to investors. So these new projects can show a professional attitude
and finally many investors are interested in investing in these new projects.

For me a roadmap is a very important piece of information in my decision if i want to invest into a new and upcoming project or not. What i am looking at is, if the goals in the roadmap make sense and if they are achievable in my opinion. I read so many weird and stupid stuff in roadmaps already and this is a red flag for me then. For example if very small projects give the goal of "Q3 2022 listing at Binance or Coinbase". First of all a listing on a exchange is not really a goal of the development team in my opinion and secondly this is a totally unrealistic goal in my opinion too. For me a roadmap needs to make sense.

^ For now, it is a bit tougher to tell which ones are scams or legitimate projects, sometimes that does matter on the roadmap.
Because I saw a project that are good to be true but at the end, they will turn out into scam.
Investing in them seems like gambling for me, the odds of making a profit are very high and it will turn out into a scam if you are not lucky in choosing a legitimate one. I would rather stick to BTC for less risk.

I agree that being listed on the big exchanges would make a project great. But in order to get there, first it needs to go through the hard parts of it. I have to say a project that starts out with spending a ton of money is a good indicator.

We should look at that because it means that we are making a good profit and that’s fine, if we are seeing that impact, then we will see how great they will start on the release date as well, maybe even be on the radar for a Binance listing after just a month of being released. But, places that barely have any money to spend, will not be able to get heard that much and it would probably not be listed anywhere at all.

Without a doubt the roadmap not only gives us an insight about what the developers want to achieve, it also tell us about how legitimate the project really is, because as you say having a goal of being listed at an exchange should not really be a goal that should be in a roadmap, so if we see anything that doesn't really make a lot of sense then we know that the developers do not really know what they're doing and as such that is a project in which we must never invest any money because the risk of losing it is simply too high.

Being slow at attaining some goals based on roadmap isn't a problem like not following at all. Being slow will not be an issue or bring about any complaints if it is still in line with the stated roadmap.

The team working on any projects should take their time to ensure they have iron things out smoothly before dishing a road so as to avoid failure of delivery at the set time as many of the investors take that as lack of seriousness or no good mastery of what and how to offer what is promised as the objectives of the project.

It's true that it's not easy and sometimes when we've done research it doesn't mean it can guarantee that we avoid scam projects,
I think this is the risk of crypto and we can't completely avoid things like that,
besides Bitcoin investing in top altcoins like Ethereum and BNB is also safe

Scam projects are good deceivers because no matter how skeptical we are and how we searched so well just to know their potential, it will still take time before their investors would notice that they're really a scam. They could imitate the movements of legit projects just for them to look like legit projects as well so as much as possible, we shouldn't underestimate the power of searching.

You need to understand that road map where made even the activities proper of a project began, Road mad is like a vision or expectations of how the team and devs want their project to go and what’s wrong with road made they don’t always consider real time, why many projects don’t leave up to their road map is probably because they didn’t consider the issues they are encountering in real time when preparing the road map even activities in the crypto-currency eco system usually affect many projects road map.

I prefer a project following its roadmap, no matter how delayed it may be. Many projects just are just lazy or inept, and cannot fulfill their promises of certain milestones to investors. It bespoke of a redundant team and investors like me want no part of it. Investors run any business

not easy either to understand the scam project. what about the luna investors who lost a lot of money stored in luna in a few days lost. the luna project is very clear that there is a team and large collaboration partners. All activities have big or small risks depending on what we choose. it has become destiny in our life

If the developer seems like being hurried up in developing the project without considering the roadmap, I don't think that this will be fine enough. Something conducted hurriedly may also influence the result of the development itself. I think that following the roadmap is good enough. Although it is probably done earlier, this will not be really far away and not based on hurries. It is more important to focus on the quality of the project development based on the target and roadmap.
So far, I found new projects that are too slow in developing the projects and then they are falling because failed in development.

Yeah that's right. Some project developers didn't even think to follow the roadmap and they were only doing what they wanna do with the money that being raised even some were gone with all of money. The developers will always put a huge promises on its roadmap. If the project developers can't do that and it will become a disaster for the project itself.

At present time i did that no project can get your believe permanently because so much scamming happening in crypto space even developers is making project to scammed people. No one has their trust on new crypto. There is only one way to believe the project who has retained many year time at Coinmarketcap and which rank comes under 100. only believe on these crypto and investment make from your choice.

it's more about momentum, you don't want to release a big update when some big exchange got hacked for example, because it will take their spotlight and it's bad for the price of the said token.

And some projects just slowly rug and drain their own fund that said for dev the project, meanwhile the founder just wasting the money on a luxurious way as possible

There isn't such thing as following roadmap slowly. Or you follow it and respect the promised timing or you don't. There isn't middle term. If the project doesn't respect its own roadmap timing you can expect there is something really wrong going behind the curtains, so be careful when investing. In this case red flags are welcome, so naive investors will be alerted to be careful regards the project.

On the other hand, I wouldn't bother giving a second chance to the project if developers apologize with investors and present consistent arguments to justify the reasons behind the delays.

Which is why it is better to not invest at the early stages of a project and instead wait to see if the developers actually try to follow their roadmap, now a delay here and there is understandable as they could have encountered some issues that were difficult to deal with, however if the developers disregard the roadmap completely then you know they are not professional and that it will not be long before they could scam their investors and disappear with whatever money is left.

It is not crucial at all to the developers otherwise why would they change it every month and keep the investors in the dark that the project has been going down the rabbit hole?

It is the truth about any new project out there. Roadmaps are meant to be delayed and made a fool of. If you think the development is going as per their words then you are the one being fooled. Like I always say, 99% of altcoins are to be ditched and therefore dump them before you go into loss phase.

The ones which are really being developed don't give importance to maps but deliver results or stay strong in the market for years.

To develop a project, you must already have a roadmap that is in accordance with the basic objectives of making the project. but if they delay too long it will surely make people or investors feel bored. so it would be better if the project could run according to the road map that has been determined and it would be even better if the development could be faster, but it all depends on market conditions.

For me personally, almost all projects fulfill their obligations. But it happens when projects postpone time and then regularly fulfill their obligations. So if you follow all the rules of the project, you can get an excellent reward.

To think that the project already shows a red flag from the start, then there’s no reason to trust it anymore and continue to invest. Except for those good projects who are really trying their best to meet the deadline and follow the roadmap, they deserve to be understood and should gained our trust. Other than that, projects that are only rich in their promises but seem to have less in action, I think they are not worth of our penny.

The developers of new coins face a major issue, if they promise a fast development on their roadmap they run the risk of being unable to fulfill their promises and for their investors to get disappointed, but if they take a realistic approach and the roadmap seems to be too slow then they may fail to attract the interest of new investors as almost no one is interested in investing in a new coin for several years since they know new coins can disappear extremely quickly, so how to solve this? I have no idea, I am just happy I do not have to deal with something like that.

Investing in a project that has not been  completed is a big risk because anything can happen. Some completed project sometimes have complicated issues then talk more of a project that has not been completed. Investors should take a proper check on new projects because some eventually turn up to be scam project,  no need to take a rush on new projects.

Why do we take the risk of investing in new projects that have been marked with a red flag, meaning that projects should be avoided. In contrast
to new projects that experience delays and do not follow the time according to the roadmap schedule, but the development team can give
a clear reason, it's still tolerable. But still it would be much better to choose projects that always follow the roadmap. Because these projects mean
to prepare carefully and more professionally, so it really deserves the trust of investors. Because of healthy projects, the team of developers is always
active in providing regular developments according to the roadmap schedule, and have a good support service by answering all questions of
investors related to projects. We have to be careful investing in new projects right now, many new projects that have sprung up ended up being scams,
so do research and analysis in depth, so that we can choose projects that have real potential and have a bright future.

new projects are indeed very risky if you are really desperate to invest there, because my experience in several new projects also ended badly,
after listing on the market, the token fell by more than -80%, of course that's something I really regret, and I understand,
 that we have to wait and analyze it first if we want to invest in a new project.

most projects pull and extend their roadmap, and this hits the reputation of the project, if they did not have time, then somehow it is not necessary, for me it is important...respected projects must keep their promises.

I think it's better to do gradually all and follow road map slowly. Many projects did all big things in rush and then they had nothing to convince community further. Recently we seen Stepn project that they have did all things very fast and then everyone can see results. Gsthas down from 7$ to 0.045$ and they have nothing to attract new buyers . They are losing attention and very soon project will stopped. So slowly and gradually work is better than rushing all things.

Whenever a project hadnt showed up any progress or development or simply following their roadmap then this is something indeed a red flag but for  those projects who do still show up some progress despite of being
late then it would really be still that considerable which at least the team do really make out some movement or progress or trying out to achieve on what they had stated on their roadmap.
Whenever you do see zero progress then it is safe to presume that this project is shitty and never worth on making investment out of it.
So choose which you do see that it does have potential but well this sounds simple but cant really be that easy.

Sometimes projects don’t follow there road map, there is always delay in some road map but that those not implies that the project is a scam project or should not be trusted, some are just putting things in place to make the project a better one. In crypto market which we are, new project entering the market most of them just want to steal, if am recommending to anybody to invest, I will recommend a old project and not new one.

That delay is something no one wants. A roadmap will be given before the project starts, but in the process of working and developing there will be certain difficulties so they often need more time to complete. I think that's acceptable as long as they keep investors informed and don't delay unduly. If the project is developed too quickly without ensuring quality, the project will quickly collapse.

progress on project developtment will influence their reputation and also trust from investors. alot dev team didnt care with their progress and as if it move slowly, without  good communication investors will leave them and also selling their coins to move to other project that give good communication and progress developtment. start for now , we must keep give them critics to roadmap could be done immediately,

In my opinion, it will be more effective if we have effective roadmaps that are realized step on the step, systematically and always on progress. Then we have very great roadmaps but we have nothing to do with the process. May projects cannot step on their first roadmap, many of them are running too far away from the first roadmap. and some of them are fail to fulfill roadmpa. In this case, all elements really influence how the project will run on. It needs a great unity on the roadmap, continuity, team, promotion, in and out come, and otehrs

Better late than never eh? Its always good to see whenever a project do really make out some developments or progress on tending to follow on whats been stated on the roadmap although the success or probability

chance is less and something that cant really be known or everything would really be just random because it would entirely be depending on the project owner or the developer whether they would be using up those accumulated funding to develop the project or they wouldnt really mind and just focusing on the money that they do made out directly.?

Healthy means that they are still minding on developing  the project despite of the market condition that we are facing.

Yes everything has a certain time when it is best to do it but not everyone can do it so no one can do anything if we can do the right thing at the right time then it is good for us but we have to choose it and at the right time.  To think about doing the right thing

This time I can say that all projects initially promise big profits. But since the project needs investments in order for the project to develop. And when there is not enough investment in the project, there are big changes in the project, because for big development, more capital investments are needed. And hence it follows that such projects do not last long and, accordingly, the participants lose their funds.

sometimes there are several reasons why the team is not working according to the roadmap and that is not a red flag but rather the best decision for the project. For example poor market conditions make most projects delay listings because if they insist on working according to the roadmap and not delaying listings it could adversely affect prices.

healthy projects have good progress, and transparent work, because in the world of blockchain technology we will know everything,
there is something that many people may not know, that Github is a benchmark to determine whether a project is good or not,
so if you want to If you know if the project is healthy then check on github, do they always update there or even nothing
