i think whitelist is a list where the participant of ICO is listed. usually whitelist created before token sale start.
The participant register early on ICO, to gain some advantages. In some ico, whitelist is required to buy at the token sale.

Whitelist is a listing of investors of an ICO project being offered for sale. The names and information of the investors are stored there, and by the end of the project the managers will provide tokens to investors equivalent to the amount investors have invested in ICO project.

Whitelisting do commonly happens when a certain project do have plans on opening a sale and as an investors usually they do make such requirement or a gate pass for you to have on able for you to join or participate on such sale.Whitelisting might really be too strict or just ask a simple registration to ones self because sometimes i have seen such whitelisting where you do need to pass up kyc.

Whitelist in ICO is nothing but eligibility to buy token. Before token pre sale on should be whitelist for that pre sale to buy. Without whitelist buying the tokens in pre sale is not possible

Whitelist is the list where the ICO investor is listed as a early bird to invest on that particular ICO. Basically to make the interested investor in the first row, whitelisting is made. Also to prevent the rush on the ICO as it is very hype nowadays, whitelisting can help. Moreover, in whitelisting(for some ICO) you need to pass KYC(know your customer) process rather that just activating email. By signing to whitelist you can participate on that ICO and you will be notified earlier than non whitelisted investors.

It is an early registration for the tokensale which guarantees an investor bonus tokens or a discount for buying coins.

[kingzpro]

It is just a process before the tokensale, where the interested investors provide the company with their details to make the investing process compliant with regulators and also to have the data and information about all the potential investors.

To date, I perceive the Whitelists as a way to stir up excitement around the project, as there is a huge number of people who have not gotten into the Whitelists and who want to buy the token on the stock exchange, which will cause rise price.

Now mostly every ICO request investors to get whitelisted before their token sale launch in order to participate in their ICO, they usually request from their investors to know about their background like from which country they are because as some countries don't allow their citizens to participate in ICO like China. Also, you will get some bonus if you apply to get whitelist in early stages, & you have to mention the BTC/ETH amount you are going to invest. You cannot buy coins in ICO if you don't get yourself whitelisted.

Right, whitelist is like a list of early bird investors who will get a bigger bonus than the main sales

[Viscera]

Whitelist means you need to verify first or sign up on their ICO website before joining their tokensale. ICO's now a days needs that so that they will verify you as a real customer.

[yugyug]

Whitelist means you have to to sign-up for an early registration before the launch of the official token sale period provided that you must meet the certain requirements like KnowYourClient(KYC) method, provisions like government IDs,proof of billing, proof of residency and proof of financial capacity. Beware of some other ICOs with whitelist bait, some of them will collect your personal info and they will sell it afterwards like in a case of  identity thief.

[Sephire]

It is used by many  ICOs these days to do KYC of the ICO participants. It does not guarantee that you will get the ICO tokens when the private or public tokensale opens. That is still going to be first come, first served.

[Trollinator]

It’s a registration process to get a slot to purchase the portion of the token allotment available.

[CryptoAllDay]

As others mentioned previously, it's just a way for the project to keep track of who is eligible to participate in an ICO.  People who are not registered on the whitelist successfully will not be able to purchase any coins/tokens during the sale date.  Sometimes whitelists require information such as your wallet address that you'll be purchasing from, and how much you intend to purchase.
