The cryptomarket is developing and a lot of people including I have the question about confident sites and resources to find suitable coins for investments. Some of these sites are pay and it is too responsible to trust them not to be confident in the truth of their information in the same time. I am against for trusting to these sites because I am sure that experts’ opinions are more promising in this case and it is easier to believe to the particular person than to different sites. What about you? Do you trust these sites or do you find information in the other sphere of life?

I trust such sites. For example https://hacked.com A very useful site. There you can see and hear the opinions of experts in this field. Successful predictions that you can believe. There are also many such sites. Because of this, I have reason to believe them

Most of the rating sites do actually do indirect promotion of ICOs.I don't trust any rating site that collects fee for listing or reviewing any ICOs on their site.Always do your own research on the ICO and discuss about the ICO on the forums/friends and come to conclusion.Don't just go blidndly with rating sites

ICO rating sites are evaluating a certain set of criteria. They may or may not be reliable. Some sites were pretentious about manipulating them in exchange for money. That's why we can't trust much.

Yes, I usually use these websites to check if the ICO has good ratings on these websites. The ICO is great, when it is listed on every rating website and deserved great marks. But a great rating, does not guarantee 100 percent success of an ICO.

Site content was not created by a single person, that means a lot of peoples were creating a different kind of story based on their opinion(even you can see some biases on some sites) and some facts. Of course because of that we can say that they are not reliable at all as a source for us to find a good 'project'. But it does not mean that they are completely useless for us, as an investor we need to gather a lot of information to determine or to find some facts that are moving around on our current market.

And the best place to find it is on those sites,do not look at the good one but instead find the bad one.
usually it's more reliable compared to the good one, because haters will tell you the truth instead of the supporter itself.

Depending on how much I am going to invest, I research more or less. I would not do much research to put 100 $ or  200 $. For that I would trust ICOBench or ICORated.

I prefer to trust expert opinion. I join crypto-trading chat in telegram with professional traders. They often make youtube stream discussing coins.

Only a fool would trust others people opinion. I mean a biased one while they actually able to research and analyze by themselves instead they handover the job to unknown and biased rating websites. To make a good investment we must deeply research and analyst the project by ourself since its unbiased.

We do not have to rely entirely on site evaluations, but we should not believe them because our analysis gives us complete confidence about an ICO project.

I don’t like to visit review websites because most are filled with impunity
How can a Scam ICO be verified by ico review websites ?

It shows as long as u have money you will be acclaimed to have passed kyc and your project given ratings that would lure in investors

The simple way is everyone should use google duly and find out information and decide for themselves
Ignore rating apps

I like such sited because I don't see something bad there, they have a profit and I think that they say truth because in the onther way they could lose their participants and money.

These rating sites are useful as an information to start the research, but  my investment
decisions are never based on them as they are not always independent and reliable.

I too against trust to these websites. I think all of them are interested to leave only good marks and comments to projects which paid them. It is necessary to understand the project, but not to trust foreign people.

Rating sites are notorious for promoting ICOs in the guise of rating them. This explains why most of them have a pinned message, ICOs they got vested interests in are always at the top. I don't fall for their biases.

The only site I trust https://icodrops.com The Rest of the sites began to greatly overestimate the ratings of the projects.

ICO rating sites talk money from ICO's for favourable ratings. I have seen them recommending projects that I was able to discern as an obvious scam within the first 5 minutes of my due diligence process. They do little beyond replicating the information that is already on the ICO site without doing anything to verify it. If you use ICO rating sites to guide your investment decisions you will end up losing a lot of money.

Ranking sites will not give bad ratings to a good project. It’s not profitable for them. Who will trust the rating site if their reviews is a bullshit? Of course, I do not exclude that some projects pay the experts of these rating sites for a good rating, but there are probably very few such cases. but, nevertheless, when choosing a project, I try to look at the ratings of this ico on all the rating sites - after all, you won’t pay to all of them, right? ;D

There are indeed many investors and beginners who depend on rating sites to get investment options. I think the rating site is always controversial and has two sides or views, between good and not. One side they can help by giving an objective assessment of the project and the bad side there is also a rating site that only gives an assessment to get paid.

Apart from all that, I think the rating site is not the last way we should follow, but we can take information from it to start research and discussion to get the best choice.

I think there are speculation sites that could be really trusted and some are not should be trusted. But every speculation people make is just based on what happened before or just based on the information they were able to gather. Meaning, you trust those sites at your own risk. Doesn't mean a good speculation site will always help you earn a ton of profit. Because the market can be manipulated anytime.

I think we have overrated rating sites and this has made many investors to lose big in the industry, even some scam project do get good rating on some popular rating sites. I prefer following my intuition when investing than following anyone's view in my investment decision .

it can be said that, currently the rating sites are not a definite reference to the success of an ICO project.
but that does not mean that the rating site is useless, this can be one of the supporters of confidence to join the bounty campaign

Choosing the ico for investments I always review information and ratings for this project on the rating sites . This facilitates the selection of high-quality ico from a large number of projects that now exist . But that does not mean that the project will be 100% successful .

well that's why you have to fulfill your life with a lot of insight and knowledge. until any news source or website as you say is not directly accepted as justification. there must always be research, analysis and research to be your own benchmark, therefore experience plays an important role in ico's choice.

If ever you are to use these review sites, check if they allow a third party to issue his/her opinion on ICOs listed on their site. If none, then be more cautious.

Investment? if you talk about it, no need to talk about confidence at all, put that aside most projects say the token is not an investment. Rating sites are totally nonsense.

I think rating sites are good for icos and crypto currencies in general
But truth remains that they can be manipulated and the ratings can be rigged with bribery

Best way is for you and I to conduct a comprehensive research ours elves and get it right

Make yourself confident

Low and mid-sized investors do not read much about the project, they solely depend on the rating which is given by the experts and their review, in other way, and investors are lazy to research about the ICO. Nevertheless, due diligence is required before doing the investment, most of the rating sites do this work with the help of KYC and deep research in the ICO. However, still scam ICO and fraudulent rating systems appear to deceive the customers.

Since its really hard to determine an ICO project now if scam or legit, that sometimes we tend to see the reviews on them. Its a risk to just rely on reviews but if you already do a throughout the research and sees team reliability. Then the project might be good to give a chance, once you join keep tracking and do follow-ups on their plans and whats.

Ratings sites at times are not reliable they do compromise with their ratings having high rated an ICO which might later turn scammed calls for serious scrutiny of those rating sites, I believed investing in ICOs we should not rely solely on rating sites alone there are other areas of researching for feasibilities and credibility of new ICO.

the site rating could not be fully trusted. Sometimes this is just giving an indoor pool of information that does not fit the facts or it could even be said to trap. Maybe there are indeed provide the assessment objectively but it will come back again with different facts. the analysis will better and use the site rating is there only as a last resort to solidify the choice only.

You shouldn't solely depend on all these ICO rating sites, some are paid. I have seen many projects that have good ratings but after ICO ends & have raised enough funds although met hardcap too the price of their tokens drops sharply & the admins of telegram group of that specific ICO also are not active much as they used to be active during the token sale.
So don't depend on all these ICOs I would suggest just wait for the ICO to get over and then see if there is any progress on the project, if so then buy their tokens from exchange else you will be holding worthless tokens.

Max rating site are ICos but have you seen this site cryptomaa.com which is used as rating website to rate coins

And they are often paid a lot of money to discuss that coins on their youtube channel, and they are not even paid in coin they are promoting, no they don't believe in it that much!

Sites with such information are not convincing vor me I don't trust them. I prefer to find information with its little pieces and to make a puzzle, such info is more reliable.

They have been getting paid from ico creators and that's true this happens so many times and i should remind you when someone else was creating an article about the truth of the mcafee and then it can be a very strong example about youtube stream can't be trusted at all. This based on my experience from a few years ago.

I think you should not blindly trust any sites of experts. They always can be wrong or be paid. Try sometimes to trust your feelings.

Rating sites should not be trusted, it is better to analyze the ico project yourself (if you know how to do it).

In fact, you do not need rating sites. If you want to study the project, you can always do it yourself. If information is not enough, then this is in itself a reason to think about whether it is reliable.

Although i do know that some of the ICO benchmark sites do take money from ICO to have a higher grading, if you want to use them try to compare it with a few site to verify the authenticity. I do still use them at times but not a totally believer as i do get coins that is valuable even thought their grading is not very high there/

there are many rating sites at this time, to process the information we need a lot of information, even though 100% of the information we cannot become a size but the site rating is still useful for us, we can compare it one by one ... we can also combines site rating reviews with expert analysis

If you want to invest in a project in order to get their tokens, then it is not necessary to see the rating on one site. It is easier to enter the name of the project in a search engine and there will be enough websites with ratings. But as practice shows, not all experts make an accurate prediction and not everyone can be trusted.

I think for 50% believe and 50% don't believe, nobody really or trusts about sites. It would be better to do your own research and analysis. Although it also doesn't hurt to be one particular source of information. :-X

The rating of the projects listed on these assessment sites can be helpful in selecting projects. I usually use the information on these sites as part of my selection. Because they are not completely nonsense, some good evaluation sites still have their own professional ethics.

I will support your opinion. Many projects rated on this platform gave investors X after ICO.

I often read icodrops, and now I read the telegram channel, and communicate in chat, this is quite enough.

Are you talking bout the ICO rating sites? If yes then those were not to be trusted because they are getting money for high rating from the sites and also many people were offering fake reviews for that projects so which is untrustworthy and not enough to invest because the best project no need any illegal activities to get succeed.So don't trust them just do your own research for investing your own money.

the site rating is often given a corresponding assessment of what is. Maybe it will be better when you perform your own analysis because in addition to add insight would also be useful to add to the knowledge in crypto. do not assume that the site assessment rating is good, although there are a few who could be trusted many also did not match expectations.

Since we are here already and we still here for good, we try to established our own formula of selecting  credible projects asking advice from the experts and making our own research are much also applicable. Just considered rating sites as a guide.

Only a fool would trust others folks opinion. I mean a biased one whereas they really able to analysis and analyze by themselves instead they relinquishment the task to unknown and biased rating websites. to form an honest investment we have a tendency to should deeply analysis and analyst the project by ourself since its unbiased.

In my opinion investors shouldnt trust anybody. Especially these ico rating websites. If you really want to find some real and valuable information about icos
you can follow some ico influencers . We have some good influencers in that area. So i never believe that websites i dont even look theirwebsites.
Please be careful while investing.

i think many of those rating sites are paid to give high rating to ICOs. ranking sites will accept money if it is offer to them. also i don't trust this experts opinion because they can also be paid to promote ICOs.

i dont trust to any rating site at all. ico teams can easily pay and get higher rating in these sites. but i still check them because even they make manipulations, knowing about manipulations is also something important for us.

Even at the present time, many ICO review websites are being paid to list ICOs on their websites. This is one of the things that makes many people lose money when investing in such ICO

I look at forecasts or signals on several telegram channels, and on YouTube.
But you can watch and listen to the forecasts of various experts, analyze yourself a little and see the right way.

I of course trust these sites, especially paid. It is thanks to them that I can earn and look for what I need. I do not imagine how you can ignore them and is there another way to better search for new ICO

Just take the information you need other than the biased review and that unreliable rating given to that ico project. It's always good to make an analyzation by yourself if you know enough about everything just as you said.
For me those ico rating is just a gimmick where it have no usefulness at all other than being used for advertisement or money generator LOL.

If you feel rating site are paid for the rating they give to ICO, start looking for other rating site that are not paid but be ready to pay them for the rating service they will give to you. The quality project are all over if you know what to look for!

Don't make them the main base for your decision to investments just view it as a potential suggestion for future references, not all of them are accurate some of the websites can even edit their ratings when the projects collapse to a fraud scheme or they can be a one-sided reviewer because the project paid the enlistment to their rating site, do your own evaluation at some point it is your money at the end to protect.

How can you trust ICO ratings when they sell ads for huge amounts of money? I believe that the best analysis of the project can be carried out only on their own and never trust the purchased ratings.It's the same as taking the word of a stranger and giving him your money.

I totally agree with you. Rating sites are not to be trusted. These can easily be manipulated and mislead investors. One such example, is TripAdvisor, with many fake reviews.

Rating sites is a pretty cool thing. It seems to me that they are able to provide accurate information about all ICO. I often visit them and they give me exactly what I need. Now they help me a lot in the search

In my opinion, I believe in this site that provides some information that we might have to reanalyze, because even though this site is famous they sometimes feel cheated by fake companies, so we have to be more careful in choosing before investing

I usually trust the rating websites. I believe that they are checking the projects and have much more experience in this market. If an ICO has great ratings on more than 4 ICOrating websites, I invest in this project and wait for my profits.

ICOBench and other rating sites are very helpful. Here you can find interesting information about ICOs.

Rating sites are a very subjective way to evaluate a coin. As they say: a hundred sites - a hundred opinions. Personal analysis and collection of information about the coin is the best way to avoid mistakes and loss of money.

indeed it can be manipulated, of course we have to be able to choose ico carefully because now the rating can be purchased to get more investors

Rating website is only used as a reference when you participate in ico.We can't fully believe them.And we have to have our own judgment.

I do not fully believe, in my opinion trusting a site that says project A is good is a mistake, for me the meaning or content of the project is very important, if I read in detail that this project is very important, then I will look for the site or project rating.

Agree. we can only use it as an information relation to be able to get more complete information about ico not as an investment guide. because of course it is very risky if we only see the review rating

Do you really think that there are any experts opinion as well. I believe it's not true rating on those ICO ranking sites. Most of them could be bought one and many of them are just putting some numbers so that their website can gain popularity and then gain some crowd for displaying the advertisement.

Many of you might just think this is not true, but this is the reality guys. I have seen that almost all the ICO that seek for the ranking are getting 80%++ green rating thus making it look like far legit. In reality we know that more than 80% ICO are scam. Lolz.

So do the math and tell me how they can be trusted anyways.

The majority of the score websites perform really do roundabout marketing associated with ICOs. We do not believe in any kind of score website which gathers charge with regard to itemizing or even critiquing any kind of ICOs on the website. Usually, perform your personal investigation about the ICO as well as talk about concerning the ICO about the forums/friends as well as arrived at the summary. Do not simply proceed blindly along with score websites.

The vast majority of status websites complete actually do roundabout marketing and advertising connected with ICOs. When I tend not to confidence almost any status web page of which gathers cost intended for a checklist or maybe going over almost any ICOs on their web page. Generally complete your individual exploration within the ICO, in addition, to examine around the ICO within the forums/friends, in addition, to go to realization. Tend not to simply just head out blindly having status websites.

I have not met any good websites in my work yet. basically I take information from different channels in telegram. there are proven channels, but they are paid)

The only site that I use to check ICO ranks is https://icodrops.com , I don't believe in other websites , most of them get pay to rank an ICO and they dont write reality.

Rating sites now are just used to know which project exist, there what about and plans, neverthan that ratings doesn't matter. It will be better to join in some forum or chats that discuss projects ability than seeking their ratings.

I heard that amazix has a problem with one of the ico review websites, I am afraid this will be a symbol of investor distrust of ico.
investors are so disadvantaged that they are no longer interested in ICO. there must be new rules about such websites.

just looking at sites:
https://icobench.com
https://icorating.com
https://icomarks.com
as a reference to find out how far the project is running and see the rating.

Check out www.coinmey.com and https://cryptodiffer.com/

Personally I am using these two.

Yes, the above-mentioned websites are very good for references because ICObench is giving a very good rating for the project which has huge potential in terms activity and team role in the project. We should not consider every project but we have to consider most rating projects.

It is not good to completely believe on the rating websites because of some ICO listing websites are charging for a higher rating, so we need to research ourselves before investing or working for bounty. Before investing not only about rating we need to look at how potential the project is going to after the crowdsale.

Not at all. Its never been a good preference for you to rely on these rating sites.I dont know if you are aware on current issues with these rating sites or not
buti would tell you this that most of them can potentially be paid up to list out or sponsored or recommend a certain project neither a shit one it doesnt matter.
So, you would still end up on getting a good preference for long term since you would end up on a shitty project.

I think much better to make our own research and not to rely to some ICO raters. Yes ICO raters can help us to decide when and where we can invest but much better to make own research and study than to always rely to what ICO raters said to every project.

ICO raters such as icobench or icodrops only make  "our" research become easier. I agree if we shouldn't rely and trust 100% from their rating, but we can use it and we don't need waste too much time to analyze which good ICOs.

Rating sites about projects may attract investors to invest in such projects with high ratings.
But these rating sites are not financial advisors in the first place so it's not a good idea to trust what you saw.
Investigation should always be done first and check whether a that project is good or not.
