you need to watch the team their road map website design is also not unimportant, but you need to read that the risks are always immediately difficult to disassemble where the fraud

In analyzing good and have potential ico, we have to consider all the factors on how it wll works. Follow their websites read their whitepaper non how it will work we consider also their development team on how they strong are they. Also their product in useful this year. Knowledge may help you in analyzing  an ico.

The team members of the project is the most important aspect. It is better to learn the information about them and their previous projects if possible.

The team is not necessarily the most important aspect.  You need to look at the actual product.  If there is no product you can't really trust much else.  We have a product that is already in existence. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4665959

Good list. When I select ico, I also check these items. But there are still many points which have you not been described.

1. The most effective way is to create an evaluation system based on some of the key success indicators of the ICO

- The research team: It is important to have a profile of the team members to reach them and the amount of information about each individual should be fully disclosed. Displaying images yourself and linking to external professional sites like LinkedIn will help build credibility and credibility for investors.
- ICO information: Information about the actual ICO should be clear and available. The start and end dates of the first and the last trading session, how individuals can participate in the crowdsale and which currencies are accepted, the countdown time / at the end of each session and the price of each token, all of which can help investors be more confident to make their own guesses.
- Vision: Different milestones that the company wishes to achieve and plans for achieving them, more detailed information about team members and how to use the technical code.

2. MVP (Minimum Viable Product)

- In general, it is a prototype, alpha or beta version of the product in the future. It is used to review customer feedback and make changes in the project. MVP is not very popular in the virtual currency industry, but it will definitely increase investor confidence in the product.

3. Tracking information to the media

- With so many ICO projects on the market, it is important that individual projects draw a lot of attention to their products. . The best way to gauge attraction is through the company's marketing efforts.

4. Listen to the opinions of experts

- One of the most important factors to consider when evaluating ICOs is the opinion of experts in the digital money world. They will look at the same standard but from different angles. Groups with cryptocurrency experience are generally more highly valued than those who are new to the industry.

Hi , i am new to this forum but i have been investing in some ICO.
And would not want to include 3 and 4 as very important.
If the media exposure is too much then most likely they are paid, also what experts?
Who can actually be trusted, which experts are not paid by the team?
Also i would not recommend any of "expert ratings" ICO rating webs.

project idea, whitepapers, popularity its critical to know before you joining with ico, and the last i think good to know soft cap and hardcap during pre-sale, because if the target sale too high its not rasional to reach success

[yrsat]

For me, the quality of the idea is very important. It is more preferable to choose projects whose creators, by the time of ICO's release, can already present to the public any model or prototype of their development. On the basis of this, it is possible to evaluate the potential of the idea and the expediency of its further development. If the authors of the project are scattered in beautiful promises, have a vivid presentation and nothing more, then such projects are best avoided. The risk when investing in startups is very high, but in the absence of concrete evidence that developers are really capable of something, it increases many times.

[mrpl2017]

When analyzing crypto projects, for less important is the development team, whether they have the relevant experience, I never invest without experience, it's 100% scammers.

[Hammonds]

I think you should know with the head office.
If you know, you can complain to the Development Team at its headquarters and that is an advantage for you.

[djuragan]

If possible, we could also check on the transaction inside their contract wallet. The more valid transaction they had, that can be used as consideration to join into the project's ICO.

Thank you for sharing this knowledge, this help for novices is huge.

Before investing on ICOs, the analysis should base on video appearance of the team behind the project especially the C.E.O, and investors always need to read the whitepaper for better understanding of the project if it'll be achievable for the team either short or long period. e.g Smarter than CRYPTO video appearance of the CEO on interview.

[Little_king]

So many ways to analysis ico but even after those many still failed, I think this is solely to the founder aim, even if you know the house he lives but he determine to run away with the investors funds , he will and this is more reason we need intervention of regulating body to regulate crypto and ico , so all these college boys would not just create token and take money from people to enjoy their life and the most annoyed part is that most of these scam comes from developed countries, but most figure are point to undeveloped countries to be scammer.

[sinkfish]

physical present is rather important nowadays, i would prefer any new ICO with their PIC have presence on summits or event. at least we can see the face of their project. show list on whitepaper are not convincing at all.

[alvaro damar]

we need to examine the team first, look at the concept that is offered whether it is interesting and different
also, see the vision and mission of the project always read whitepaper and see also ICO coins based on which platform has its own platform.

[Grim149x]

I think the easiest and fastest is to analyze the founder. If he is ambitious, legit, reputable, and has high integrity then that is good enough for me.

[turkmachiavelli]

Actually recently a lot of people decided to not invest icos because all of us have faced a lot of scam icos but If you wanna invest some ico and earn some money, absolutely you should follow these advices because these are really important to pick true ico.

[soundrum]

There are many ICO scam and I also participated in some of them. They are getting too much and they're damaging the image of the industry. I think we need the overhauling of the entire system and get rid of all these scammers in oder to make the industry competitive again.
