Do you believe in ICO Ratings?

[retampan]

Most of them were paid by the project to review or rate the ICO of a project, which will make people has diminished trust to an ICO. I usually take my personal opinion to an ICO to determine if this project legit or not, rather than believing in ICO ratings.

I don't think they make too much difference. I casually check some of them but don't take it too serious. I usually use those sites to get general information about ICO, I don't care if they give 4 or 5 stars.

as far as I know, only posting information is paid, the opinion of experts (on which the assessment depends) is independent. Some resources only independently place the information and in any way it is impossible to make it charge. In such I believe. Among them, for example, Captain Altcoin

In my opinion about the project rating plays a role because you have to look at how other people react to it and I believe a little in ratings

[kambaralikhan]

I don't believe in ICO ratings so much. Most of the times ICO ratings prove opposite. I invest in ICOs with my own judgement. I prefer whitepaper of any project, I see core team members of the project and news about the project. ICO ratings sites don't help a lot in such matters. But I visit these sites to see which ICOs are coming or in progress. But I don't rely on their ratings. I do it my self.

[JanCoppens]

I wouldn't define the succes of a project with reaching the hardcap. Look further.

[Maestro75]

I see many Websites that provide ratings for ongoing ICOs or for the future. Examples such as the ICObench.com Website, ICOrating.com and others.

Which is my question whether you believe in the rating provided by the website. Seeing many ICO's do not match what they value. Many ICOs are arguably good ratings but when the token sales of the project only reach softcap. And there are projects that I see have a fairly mediocre rating but their token sales reach hardcap. I took the example of Lalaworld on ICObench.com they get Rating 3.7 but their token is sold out.

So let's discuss ICO Rating!

These things are more subjective than objective. To say the truth, I think the ratings are in more ways tilted to who is ready and able to dance to the tune of the highest PRO bidding. Most sites and projects get nice ratings because the devs of those sites secretly bribe their way through or at other times when favouritism is allowed to reign. So, I sincerely don't believe in those skewed ratings.

ICO ratings are mostly incentivized. They pay to get higher rates and its not a sign for me.
Ratings are just traps for new users. There are lots of samples that high rated icos turned to scam.

I'm using ICOdrops to search great ICOs. If the project is on ICOdrops website - i know it's not a scam. Also, i'm using Wings to search for ICOs. Results of their forecasts can give valuable information.

For me the ICO ratings is useful tool for investors. They will take a look at the rating of a certain ICO but take that as a reference only. Do not use it as a preference of your investment. It is better to have those ratings than nothing at all.

[sureshnsnet]

Yes it's will help to find the good ico to invest the amount in ico because of I am before investing any ico I will check the team and the road map of project and there are some good website to refere before investment in ico I will check the website's.

[liangweicha]

I want to, the ICO evaluating the role of the site just to make you more convenient to search the ICO, there is no reference value for these so-called rating, because a lot of website will receive money, then the ICO will have a good score.

[jdeanne92]

Yes, I have invested in some ICO's that have high rating in those websites.  And so far i have made profit. Maybe ill just continue this kind of technique for some time.

[jimmywh]

I think that some "experts" are paid in tokens for rating an ICO high, and thereby manipulating the rating higher. Take ICObench for example. A lot of expert opinions are just 5-5-5 with no comment attached. And many opinions with comments attached, are utterly useless.
However, I do use ICObench as a tool. If the ICO is rated high on several sites like ICObench, ICOrating, Hacked etc., and it is backed up by a big community on BCT and Telegram, you can't go totally wrong. On the contrary, if an ICO is rated high on one site, and low - or not rated at all - on the other sites, I pretty much stay away. There is a big chance it is manipulated.

[hannahB4]

ICO rating to my understanding  I will say is listing of ICO's according to their order of magnitude or viability. Yes I do believe in ICO rating using the website although won't go with this alone without further findings.

[dudov]

I think this rankings of ICOs is a part of your personal analisys, do you own work

Generally they provide a  great insight. You can consider it as a general feedback from people also. What i do is i use it as a reference and cross match the reviews of a certain ICO. What you need to remember is to always do your research and read all the essential information about a certain ICO.

[johstacy]

Yes, I always watch ICO ratings. These ratings are made by smart people with a lot of experience. They often write about the fact that you need to pay special attention on something and where there can be risks. Of course, the investor makes the decision independently, but such ratings pay attention to fraudulent projects.

[Rufsilf]

Actually i don't believed in the ICO ratings because i am not that kind of person that just because it says that it is from an expert analyst that is saying that this ICO is good to invest in and it will be a huge ICO, i don't listen to those kind of things because i do my own research and because of that i cannot blame anyone because i do my best for doing research before putting any of my money.

[jazz21]

yes, i do believe in ICO rating!
