We already know that in the world of cryptocurrency we have valuable projects and platforms and at the same time as if existing in the parallel but intertwined universe are the shitcoins and there are many of them in the market today and more can be coming up soon. A shitcoin refers to a worthless project using cryptocurrency platform that is put up just for the sake of making money and nothing more. Of course, there are many types and forms of a shitcoin...and sometime determining one can be difficult that's why many innocent investors get victimized and can be victimized with their hard-earned money.

Aside from the usual reading of the WhitePaper and the scrutiny of the team behind if they are real or not...what other things do you use to see if one project has the potential to just be another shitcoin?

Sometimes it is suspicious or low soft cover and inflated hard. In general, it is better to try to look for a project with an already finished product or a raw prototype, but not just white paper and the words that we will do.

I agree...the problem is to find the new coin that can do a big % of price grow...we must look for coins that are not ico or bounty but people are too stupid for this....I regret I did not get bought coins like litecoin,vertcoin or viacoin when they were very very low in 2015...there is a good dose of luck of course, but you must always do your own researches...for example watch Elicoin in livecoinwatch , is not an ICO or bounty... it's a coin with low mc, low supply, PoW whit cpu, no premine, active dev...only trading it on CREX24 for now...do you own researches in the thread in bitcointalk: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3028302.0... people are too stupid for DYOR and got scammed by ICO or bounty...just my 2 cents...hope it helps...cheers

as a rule of thumb i consider all the ICO tokens as shitcoins.
other than that any altcoin that is forked from another coin and is not changing much is a shitcoin, specially those forks that are considered airdrops too like the forks of bitcoin including bitcoin cash, bitcoin gold,... but also other forks that start from scratch. if they use the same name as the original project then they are surely a shitcoin.

and oppositely if a project is original not a fork, there is a good chance it is a good project.
