First i look team members and project reallyty then i look marketing strategy. If marketing budget is more then normal its a red flag for me. Then if ICO has refferal system i stay away from them. All ponzi schemes has referral system. Also presale or softcap is a nice indicator for a successful ico

For me i look at team, social media and techonology that they want to provide, but mostly there was more factores that you need to look at before you invest in to ICO's really important is the techonolgy and the realisation at White paper almost all of the good projects they have a nice described token realisation

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.
Since people are thinking in investing in icos it makes sense they are looking for something that makes them money but at the same time that is the most difficult thing to find, since there are many coins that are not worth a thing but that some pump groups decide to buy, and even if you invested in a coin without any technical merit you could earn money, but you could be left with the impression that you have some kind of great insight that you do not have, you were just lucky.

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.
Thanks for this list, mate! This is a very good checklist that everyone should learn to check before joining or investing any ICO. Innovation is one key. Otherwise, if you end up investing in an ICO which is mostly similar to a project that had just finished their own ICO, there is a probability that it won't sell as quick. The reason is that it might be construed as a simple copy.

This is actually not the right criteria if people are buying so let buy. Its always good for everyone to due their due diligence before investing in any of those coins. Many numbers or people will of their own and not outsider and it could be easy trap considering every one is investing. I prefer to check the team involved, their whitepaper report and their future growth prospects.

I would take into consideration the following things: 1) a solid whitepaper coherent with a product itself; 2) its low risk rating and high investment profile; 3) its potential value for customers and other interested parties in general.

Hi Guys, Check this topic: The second ICO our of Korea is coming soon (BOScoin was the first). DAYLI Financial Group (formerly Yello Finance Group) is preparing to launch a coin called ICON. The site was opened on the 2nd. Of all things, the Korea version of the Whitepaper attracted me the most, and after reading through, I felt the company was well prepared. ICON is an interconnecting blockchain network. ICON can connect independent blockchains without the use of additional third-party intermediaries. Various blockchains can communicate with each other through the ICON platform. By connecting siloed blockchains, ICON aims to become the largest blockchain in existence. ICON tokens are named ICX. ICX is used as an intermediary currency when transacting amongst the various blockchain networks. As an inter-chain blockchain, the ICON platform will be able to host other ICOs on the ICON platform. The ICON ICO will be the largest ICO in Korea. Overall, ICON aims to raise $44M over the span of 2 weeks. The ICO starts on October 20th, 2017 and ends on November 3rd, 2017. ICON will distribute 400,230,000 ICX which can only be exchanged with Ethereum (ETH). 1 ETH has a conversion rate of 2,500 ICX (1 ETH = 2,500 ICX). https://icon.foundation/en/

The devs are the most important part of the project even if the idea is not the most original they can beat existing coins if their execution is better, if the end product is better, so always check that the developers are who they say they are, also look for fake pictures, if there is any that is a big red flag and finally once you have determined they are real then you can look at their experience.

Three things look for in an ICO, I feel important are; 1. Whitepaper 2. Vision 3. Platform [on what the tokens for the ICO are being build upon]

Of course it's obvious they should have a whitepaper 2. Also a commong thing 3. Should But the bottom line here is, whitepaper , vision and roadmap are easy to create. They can just put good and positive thoughts about the project and that's it. For me the best factor should be "exposure" like devs doing seminars and travels to show what project is or having a regular conference to some crypto related news institution. In that way, we can see that they are serious in the project and all we need to face is the risk of investing to them.

As said before, the golden rules for an ICO are:
1- purely based-on-technology coin without a end-consumer purpose -> only experts can understand, looks very technical and state of the art... because its only purpose is technology
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 super hot...
How2: Buy at pre-ICO, sell 3h after it hits exchanges. Go golf...

1. No scam
2. Over demand for flipping
3. Good team for long term investment and clear exit strategy

This are good lists. I usually look at the project it self if people would find it helpful and the project would be helpful to people. Usually, this kinds of ICO's attract investors. Who would invest in a project that people wouldn't find useful when the ICO is finished. I also consider the team behind it, because those teams whose name is already established mostly has successful ICOs.

I think this lists are good. Usually, new concepts and ideas attract investors. If I were to invest big amount of money into an ICO, I would look for an ICO that is something new and that people would really use in the future. And, the project should be user friendly and not complicated to use. People nowadays are lazy to understand the whole concept of things. So, everything should be made simple.
