Your list is all scam.

One of my biggest pet-peeves is finger pointing and scam accusation without anything standing behind the claims. The reason I started this topic was to promote due diligence. Every ICOs and ITOs ANN thread has some moron or group of them posting scam accusations without a leg to stand on. I'm not saying everyone needs to be a gumshoe blockchain detective.... Just, please don't post spam here and please don't randomly accuse thirty companies of being a scam in one swoop. If you suspect something but can't or don't know how to prove it, that's fine. We are here to discuss these types of things and help each other out. Whether it be the accuser or the accused. Any type/amount of evidence supporting your claim is a requirement to promote change.
Thank you for your post.

There is no clear indicators that can make people to know the real or scam ico because the scam ico team often has enough funds to throw around for advertisement and thereby attracts a very large audience while the real ico might not even have the funds to finance their project.

This is a very interesting point. Something for us all to think about. I have been guilty of thinking an ICO must be legit after seeing the fancy graphics on their ANN thread.

I'd say at least 7Type is base on their site. That is an amazing piece of work.

I know people are losing faith in ICO's, but some are trying to use the technology to improve current models. I agree that it's hard to tell real from a scam (other than 7Type). Smiley

I'm conducting an ICO at protostarr.io, and am hoping that people see the value in the product. It isn't too complicated on our end and our long term benefit depends on the DApp being successful. I guess that is one thing you can look for is how you are actually going to profit from the purchase without depending on the market to just start adopting their coin.
