TOP 5 THINGS TO LOOK FOR IN A GOOD ICO

[airdrop411]

There are so many ICOs that are flooding the market. Many look good on the outside, however I read so many conflicting comments for both pro and con.

So, I wanted to know what top 5 things to look for in a good ICO, so that ultimately I can decide the best ones to invest in.

Please share your thoughts and advice.

1. Idea
2. Team
3. Whitepaper
4.Roadmap
5.Communication channels

The team
Its communication, how well it does here and on social networks
The ideas
Their plan or roadmap
Whether they're realistic or not about the whole thing

I would like to add:
even if it requires some time of studying, but - how well they deliver their targets + if they don't go back on their word ("we will do the ICO on X date", then move it 1 week later for no good reason).

I would say :
-Idea
-Team
-WP
-MVP !!
-Eventual partners

I only look for 3 thing how to know if the ICO project will succeed.

1. Project (you should know what are the people's interest today. The success of the project is simply dependent on the investment and profit of the project).
2. Team (one basis of a successful project is the development team that ready for almost everything. They know what they are doing, they know their project's progress and an ANN should provide these infos).
3. Community (the involvement of the community in the project is a big factor on the project's success. A healthy project has an active participants).

I strongly agree with your opinion, if you want to see an ICO, look for as much information as possible so that you avoid ICO scam, if you are interested to join ICO program, please visit www.daneel.io, because only daneel project has potential to succeed in the future

I strongly agree with most of the opinions here. In addition to all that have been mentioned, USE CASE is also a good thing to look into.

I have been dealing with this issue for more than half a year, but until now I can not understand it thoroughly. How to distinguish fraud from good intentions? This is a question that no one can fully answer. This is a lottery. It is written in your family that they will deceive you - they will deceive you.

I agree with most of the answers, but I'd like to add that in addition to an MVP, a good ICO should have an MVE - Minimal Viable Ecosystem - an existing network of users who utilize or plan to utilize the crypto-token in question.

Most of the time, no matter how good the white paper and technical route of an ICO project is, you can see everything from the open source code of gtihub.
I suggest you look at the CARDSTACK project.

1. Idea.
2. Token cap.
3. Team.
4. Community.
5. Hype level - something you still gotta pay attention to as far as on ICO market the bigger is hype the more chances has ICO to collect hard cap and realize their project

[esq1337]

The White Paper (this is arguably the most important piece of a serious ICO), total token supply(choose ico's with medium token supply), ratings (https://icobench.com eg) and find out everything you can about the development team.

[Britanshio]

I would say :
-Idea
-Team
-WP
-MVP !!
-Eventual partners

I approved this one because this things can help for our bases to choose a good ICO in order to maintained the quality of their project.But I will added also for the Roadmap and the Whitelist because this is also our reference to conduct and ignite their platform to make as joined.

I think the team and their old works are really important parameters to make a decision about an ICO. Also, I think reading the whitepaper and following the annonucements can give you ideas to make your choose.

No 1: The Company. Is the Company a solid entity that can make an idea into reality? Or at least has a solid back round in what it wants to bring to market?
No2: The idea or product/service itself. Is the idea or product/service itself disruptive enough or can it solve a problem?
No 3: The Team. Is the team robust or experienced enough to carry to fruition the road map?
No 4: The Community. Is there a large enough audience and community or the niche value in the idea big enough to scale and grow over time?
No 5: Is the token and business idea good enough for investors to salivate on and want to park their hard earned money in?

I haven't really invested in any ICOs before. However, whenever I do my research, I always look at the team consisting the team, the goal and aim of the project in the long-run, the road map, and if there's a working product or service. Continuous development, advertisement and good marketing also leads the project to further success after the ICO.

WHITEPAPER, you should read their whitepaper first.
Website, check their website and study its content.
Roadmap, this is a good way to get investor on how they are planning the project and must be on time.
TEAM and Marketing strategies, respectable people backing the ICO is a good to see if it is good, good marketing strategy will get more investors.
PLATFORM/PROJECT, their desire project of the future must be unique and best of all.

I believe that there should be a smart contract, a finished product, an understanding of the team as it will be realized.
