What are the 3 thing you look for in an ICO?

[stupid_seb]

1- purely based-on-technology coin without a end-consumer purpose -> only experts can understand, looks very technical and state of the art...
2- huge amount of tokens, and over-valuated Marketcap (>$250MM) -> but ultra-low token unitary price to lure noobs in...
3- unexperienced linkedin profiles for the team -> ...but girl in charge of PR & Communication is hot...


How2: Buy at ICO, sell 3h after it hits exchanges. Go golf...

As the question reads.  For me:

-  The concept/vision - is it innovative?  does it solve a real world problem?  is the problem it solves something I am interested in?
-  The team - Size and experience.
-  How the coin relates to the concept.  Is the coin a key part of the platform?  Are other payment methods available to users, etc.

Before I can consider investing in any ICO, I have to understand the idea behind the project and determine the uniqueness of the project. I should be able to determine how I am going to benefit after investing in that particular project. I will have to determine whether the project is having potential and the team behind the project. Finally, I will have to read about it so that I can understand their concept better.

Actually, most things important when reseach about an ICO project is good or bad, real or fake ... you need check community, working attitude of devs, support team, website design, marketing and information about devs team too. If you know they fake all information, be carefully!

I definitely agree to this! It is great to have a good plan regarding how to achieve the aims and objectives however, what makes that plan so promising is knowing the team have the relevant experience, expertise and networking to make it happen. Having said that the marketing plays a vital role too, to ensure the right message is put across, right?

It is more then 3 aspect we need to look at one p4oject.
1. Development team
2. The project ( is it posaible to do that project or just dream )
3. How much money they need and how much money the minimum and hard cap
4. Road map

Etc...

Agreed. Each of these points, as well as the consistent communication within marketing and community channels also helps express the potential and values of the business.

   Creator of this thread approach was more technical, and how many of us have deep knowledge about technology. Your 4 aspects is what was I watching before I invested in few ICO`s.
   I invested in BitDice, BetKing and TrueFlip ICO`s. Developers of this ICO`s are well known in this community, casinos will be here always, and bitcoin casinos are the future. This projects
can change the way people invest in casinos and earn from them. All of this 3 casinos already have millions of dollars invested, and road map they presented is what I like the most. Both
BitDice and BetKing plan to have sports book, more games.
   This casinos are already popular, and in future if they gain more popularity there will be more people and more earning for people who invested in early stages.

The 3 things I look for from ICO are that 1. profitable, 2. learn, 3. get token. that's the 3 things I love about ICO.

[monica69]

for me is these three:

1. White paper and road map - I wanna know if its have a potential and not scam
2. The team - if its well known or credible when it come to this field.
3. Bounty allocation - the percent will be able to distribute to the participants and the investors.
see you guys

[LittleDiver]

1. White Paper - if they didn't have take time to create a good White Paper, will they spend enough time to make their product really good? The paper should contain a considered plan and realistic goals.
2. Team - good team, not too big, not too small; experienced. Always check for their background and see if they are active in social media.
3. Growth potential - if the product doesn't have where to grow it will hardly bring you any profit. Make sure to check for competitors as well, because the competitors might have a much better product, even if this ICO growth potential is really good.

1. Can you see a whitepaper that is a shit? All whitepapers and roadmap should have a good output because it will be looked by those investors.

2. We can't say if their experiences is really their experience.

3. Well yeah Im considering bounty percentage before joining any bounties.

Overall, investing on a ICO project is risky as we didn't know how it will turned out providing they have a good team and wonderful roadmaps. So for choosing, it's all about self analyzation about the project.

i think the most important thing is the project located in China or not, then we can think about other questions, the team, the concept, the roadmap, the market cap, and so on

[andrewvlasov]

1. Product.
2. Potential.
3. Whitepaper.
4. Roadmap and business plan.
5. Comparison with competitors.
6. Bitcointalk threads.

After viewing the ICO sites, I look at the information on the trackers like https://www.cryptocompare.com/ or http://coins.expert
Total supply, Crowdsale supply, Mincap, Hardcap, Bounty campaigns.

By the way, no one post – the smart contract...

[kevinporter454]

 Strong team - Both in development team and also the CEO's / marketing (People focus too much on the developers which is important but not everything. no point having a great team to create something, if nobody can advertise it and push the startup in the right direction.)- Realistic vision - not aiming too high or if they do not reach their target everyone who invested will be disappointed- Solid whitepaper - Well thought out, shows realistic goals, a strong good vision and a plan of action- Strong social media presence - A social media that shows they are connected with everyone

[riobet]

Surely everyone wants a gift from ICO if not a gift then much less

[syluobi]

Roadmap and the coin distribution

[shashiglover]

the team, the market cap,

[scottcook145]

the whitepaper, you have to read whole white paper before invest your money

[tomtaylor20]

Before I can consider investing in any ICO, I have to understand the idea behind the project and determine the uniqueness of the project

[sarahdahan126]

working attitude of devs, support team, website design

[johnfarmer45]

Team - most important part

[YYmeans]

As the question reads.  For me:

-  The concept/vision - is it innovative?  does it solve a real world problem?  is the problem it solves something I am interested in?
-  The team - Size and experience.
-  How the coin relates to the concept.  Is the coin a key part of the platform?  Are other payment methods available to users, etc.

For me ,
 the idea , is attractive or not.
 the dev ,  promising or not .
 the time of money back, will it on exchange soon .I like quick money from icos.
