I'm personally trust own investigations only. And sometime I read icodrops because their ratings often are the same as my. And I don't see paid rating. ICObench is full untrusted for me

You know what, I’m not surprised by this issue anymore because I am more shocked that many of the members don’t know this practice. I maybe as new as my accounts in this crypto community, but I’m not ignorance to the reality that it is a business.
Virtual Exchanges does it and even Stock market used it as a marketing strategy.
And I don’t see any wrong with it because I don’t rely on them as my decision is on my own research.

They;re almost paid service to get high score/trust... Like ICOBench they're have all shit and good ICO, the good one usually don't have good score but the middle one can paid to be promoted in good place, easy to attract more visitors. So if you want to invest into any ICO do research by yourself

So if you want to invest into any ICO do research by yourself So true, this kind of advertisement can't be relied, developers can easily pay the site to have a better review, they will be able to attract investors just by paying for a good position coming from the review site, it's always better to do your own research and trust your own instinct and understanding, you can check the site to find exiting project and see it by yourself if the reviews and your own assessment will be the same to make your decision much better.

Judging by the attached article, it does seems to me the writer is watering down on other ICO rating sites so as to promote their own. This is not an independent assessment so it is not a good premises to debunk to rating of other sites.

Some of them are more trustworthy than others, mainly new platforms, for example www.icoguide.com, rates are not paid and it makes sense.

Agree, new platforms are more motivated to attract attention of investors so they try to have fair rates. I like the rates of icoguide very much, when I make my own research and compare it to their rates the impression is the same. So I can say that scores are trustworthy.

As for me, I don't trust those sites rating ICOs anymore especially ICO Bench. Most of the coins that have turned out problematic to me were rated high on ICO Bench. The best thing I do now is to conduct a background research, investigate into nice projects and invest my money.

Of course not. They have been shown to only be able to raise funds, but there is no guarantee that the project will be truly and continuously operated, so it must be improved, otherwise more and more people can only give it up and leave it.

Yes, you can't trust rating sites, because they want to earn money as well. So the only one is do your own research! And i have a look on the Ico of Alethena, which will establisch an independent Ratingsite.

DYOP has become an obligation for everyone that interested to invest in the crypto currency but as you can see that about the majority of people are only following non-sense ico site without any credibility can be proven. Ico bench has been knowing as a very very shady site and everyone that experts in the crypto never try to take a look on it.

but your opinion is true, they could bribe the site to give a high rating on an ICO, many people are not aware of this, but only the perpetrators who know it

Basically in crypto market you have to understand the term and policy of this market also you should always aware of the scam because based on this many scams are created so I don’t think ICOBench is trusted because their review is not well also they are using previous rating so you should think about this.

In my opinion, do not be too confident with ICO rating sites. These sites are the only sources of information on ICO reviews, but do not serve as a basis for decision-making to participate. A detailed examination is needed to determine good decisions for ICO investments. then what is your ground saying that an ICO is a good project? you mentioned that detailed examination should be done, what should be checked in detail? I think ICO rating is a reliable site in analyzing an ICO

I have never used these sites, because I believe that they sell good ratings. All these "premium" ICOs simply paid for being in the top. And this has nothing to do with the quality of their product.

it is better to not blindly trust these websites since reviews can be bought too to fool people. On the plus side, there are a lot of ill news regarding ICO bench and they are notorious for their news not being legit. It is better to not reply solely on the ratings.
