Hello nerouk,

It is because they have a token ticker the same as some other ICO that is already trading. We will fix it. Thank you for letting us know.

Hi,


This will be a bit random. I'm co-founder of Open Collectors Network. I passed the requested KYC for the project and then I have created a personal account and wanted to apply for an expert role, so I had to do the KYC process again, but got a 'duplicate' error.

Can you help me with this ?

Thanks and sorry for intruding

Hello,

Thank you for addressing this issue. We have a technical problem at the moment as the system sees such documents as duplicates. It will be fixed on Monday and we will send you new invitations.

Christoph Hering is advisor at ICObench.

He is a scammer who conducted the pre-ICO for the Blockpay token. His partner who acted as "CTO" was a serial scammer with a search warrant in the U.S. The funds ended up being distributed themselves. Christoph Hering does not give meaningful disclosure about the accounting, while it is known he sold the ICO funds for BTS having them on his own addresses. With the stolen funds he has a lavish lifestyle with expensive cars etc. He is a no-go in the Bitshares community.

How comes that such a subject is an advisor at ICObench? Did he pay his membership in ICObench with the stolen money from Blockpay pre-ICO participants?

In fact, ICOBench is not bad site, but...
They have lots of scam advisers. My friends who did ICO said that there are advisers that sell ratings. So I hope the Bench will find and ban all of them. Though it will be not easy

The project seems very nice, but I have a problem:

you allow your network of experts to rate the ICOs without providing any kind of textual information.

You do realize that having no minimum characters limit and having no audit for the quality of some of these experts' reviews raises a lot of doubt about the quality of your ratings?

Some "experts" write their reviews and, when asked by the ICO to update it because the ICO has updated their team, etc, they ignore them.

This is also problematic as it could suggest that the experts' review could've been paid by an ICO competitor, fighting for funding with a similar idea, etc.

Now, thanks to you guys not caring about the quality of those expert reviews, these "experts" can manipulate ratings for various kinds of purposes: personal, monetary, etc.

I really dislike this and I find ICOBench rather suspicious as there's no review quality audit and a reviewer isn't required to reassess his rating after an ICO asks him to for good reasons.

[ICObench]

Hello,

The written reviews are quite a recent option and their number is growing at the moment, soon it will reach half of the overall number of ratings. We do not guarantee fast answers from the experts, but usually if you reach them via the social networks, links to those most of experts have on their profiles, they react to the changes faster. We want to also remind you that noone would change their rating for a better one if they see threats and swears coming from ICOs teams.
If you have any proof of an expert taking money or providing services in exchange for rating or review, please send it to info@icobench.com
Thank you.

Hey guys,

you've misunderstood my question. The problem IS that you allow experts to post text-less reviews, just ratings-only.

This seems fishy as the expert is NOT required to provide any textual information to explain his ratings, which means - they can rate ICOs without any effort, just by selecting random numbers that seem fit.

A review is worth nothing if it has no text. Look at Amazon products' reviews, etc.

Are you going to force the ICO reviews to have at least 200 character requirement to make sure "experts" don't cheat?

[privatum]

I think this is a good point - voting without giving a written review takes too little effort.
A comment would be fine.
