Hello, I'd like to report a bug on ICO Bench, involving the KYC procedure. I tried using the ICO Bench contact form several times but no one takes any steps to resolve my problem. I am running an ICO called Vernam. Two KYC were requested for my team - for Roman Angelov and Ivan Georgiev. They passed KYC succesfully, but now I want to pass KYC myself in order to apply for an expert. However, when I click "Apply" I get this link: https://icobench.com/kyc/5aabe3960a975a7d0eb9d09d. KYC application
for Roman Angelov
Your KYC form is no longer available.

This KYC is mine and it shouldn't be linked to Romans's. please investigate that issue and possibly fix it because I want to apply for expert.

Thank you in advance!

Unfortunately, I'm afraid it wasn't updated.

Hello,

Your form was updated 2 weeks ago and you can see it on the site.

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.

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

Hi. It seems that was solved, but starting from 2 weeks ago, I get this message: "KYC passed successfully. Your profile will be updated shortly."

In my opinion

[ktulhu]

In project theories, they are actually interesting, leaving the postmoderns to practice. It is a great deal of greatness.

I don't like one thing in ICObench - rating. There are several of so-called "experts" who have no idea about the tech behind blockchain and ICO. They are reviewing projects and making grades for each project, but some of them are obviously don't know what project is about.


As for me every "Expert" who is giving ratings on ICObench should be forced to describe his grades and leave a comment, so people can research and follow opinions not just the figures.

Now this rating system is ridiculous, some decent projects has 3.5-3.8 rankings

I hope team will improve voting system in future.

Hello,

We have heard all your suggestions and we think the time has come for the experts to leave only the ratings accompanied with the written reviews. The changes will be deployed soon.

Any updates on this ? Thank you!

Kyc is shown as successfully, but still not updated on the 'Apply for expert' section

Unfortunately, I'm afraid it wasn't updated.

Hello,

Did KYC show passed as part of the team? If yes, at the moment you need to pass KYC one more time as a user.

I have passed both.

[ICObench]

Can you please PM us with your name? We will be able to solve the situation then. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I have passed both.

[Kosmog]

Done, thanks !

[poutintsev]

Why does it take ages for expert application get be approved?

I've been waiting for a month already!

[ktulhu]

The project of course is far from original, in recent months more than a dozen have appeared similar, but the information here was collected mostly relevant, so I will keep track.

ICO Bench is the best rating platform

[dmngdsm]

Hello there, ICOBench team.

I'd like to open a topic on the value of ICOBench's experts opinions and whether some of the are not abusing the rights they have.

I am member of Vernam's team - a promising project running for more than two months now, with upcoming token sale in late May.
When we launched our project, of course the first platform we listed ourselves was ICOBench, as the most respected one on the web.

We started getting reviews by experts. Normally some are good, other are bad. The most valuable ones are helping us improve the project with constructive feedback.

Anyway, there are some reviews that worry us. For example this one:




Obviously Mr. Berger didn't like the project and we can't blame him. Anyway, he didn't provide any feedback, just the low scores. I decided to make my own due diligence and I found out that:

1. At the time when he rated our project, Mr. Berger was running an ICO himself, as a CEO - Pecunio.
2. 90% of the projects he rated at that time got really bad scores. See:




This makes me think that Mr. Berger used his expert status to harm competition in a really lame way. How will you comment this?

[ICObench]

Hello,

We understand your worrying and that is why soon all ratings will have mandatory reviews. 3 3 3 is not a bad rating though, just average.

Great catch!

Also, I can see problems with the following "advisors" at ICOBench, who are not picky at all and sell their faces for tokens from every project, that offers to buy:

https://icobench.com/u/david-drake

He has a crazy mix of the all different types of ICOs, simultaneously "advising" 70 (!) projects with an average rating of 3.60. It appears that he just take projects to boost his rating, that just looks ridiculous and pathetic. And several project under his "advisory" look extremely suspicious and have know allegation of scam. Not picky at all to say the least. And none of his reviews contain any analysis whatsoever.

https://icobench.com/u/michael-terpin

This guy was an advisor for projects like Lydian (100x flop from $5 price during the ICO to $0.05 now) and Worldwide Asset eXchange (6x flop from $2.05 to $0.34). His average ICO under advisory score is even worse, than David Drake's - 3.57. 23 ICOs, 11 running.

https://icobench.com/u/kteare

His average score of ICO under advisory is 3.40 (15 ICOs). And his only given rate was to a project, which he is a part of, what brakes the ICOBench rules.

https://icobench.com/u/borisotonicar

This one I'm not so sure about. Yet he was involved in a scam ICO and is currently listed as an advisor for Bitxoxo, which has a lot of scam red flags. 6 simultaneous ICOs (and he has another full-time job, according to LinkedIn), average rating 4.04.

https://icobench.com/u/jaredpolites

3.36 average score, 13 ICOs.

https://icobench.com/u/marckenigsberg

3.32 average score, 13 ICOs.

https://icobench.com/u/moe

3.21 average score, 12 ICOs

https://icobench.com/u/bitkay

3.2 average score, 13 ICOs.

Hello,

Thank you for bringing our attention to these people, we will look into them and act accordingly. We really appreciate the help of community, so if you have any proof of an expert selling ratings for money or exchanging for their services, please send it to info@icobench.com
