Not exactly. I know that a lot of us like to think that a whitepeper is a good way to determine whether or not a project will be successful. While it does give insight to a project, it cannot exactly tell whether it truly would be successful or not. This is why I cannot base my confidence solely on just a whitepaper. Most of the scams in the market these days even have more convincing whitepapers.
It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

In the beginning, I will believe that if you are deceived then you will not believe or say that you will be more cautious. White papers can also be imitated. All things can be spent to make you believe that it is true. All can't just look at the white paper.

The white paper itself normally contains a large disclaimer. I have seen one that is 20 pages long. Most of them simply tell you that the team has no obligation to follow it.

clarity about the perpetrators, including who will save the proceeds from the collection of investments, to whom the project must really be considered.

If project players are not known in the wider community, or they are new players who are anonymous, we can be sure the Whitepaper will be used as a fraud.

In the world of electronic money, you can not trust anyone or anything. Including white paper, constantly changing something. Very often many projects copy the white papers of one another and do not follow the plan described, which is contained there. This is not reliable.

So, now it's really often possible to see something like when different projects copy white paper to each other. This is very bad, because only crooks do it and just screw people down. You need to carefully check everything.

Have really been thinking this for a quite a while now, those whitepaper of any projects really tells us what the project all about. Are they transparent enough to have every project goals in the whitepaper. A lots of projects are out there with nice whitepaper but they eventually failed.  How come, what causes the failure?
you should be aware that in a whitepaper probably never 100% everything is in it or that you can implement all the goals exactly as it was written in the whitepaper. I think so, what is in the whitepaper, but you should see it realistically and do not expect that everything will be implemented exactly the same way.

Not 100 percent but i tend to believe them to a certain extent as the whitepaper and the quality of the whitepaper can tell you a lot of things that you need to know about a particular project. They are important, you just don't have to read the entire thing. Also projects make promises in their whitepaper all the time that they never intend to keep.

White paper is a presentation document with promises. This is not a technical document, where we can see the calculations and implementation of the project. How can one believe in promises? I think there have been a lot of examples over the past year.

I do not believe in what is written in white paper because it is beautiful words for deceiving trusting investors. You need to check the team and look at the availability of the product.

Sometimes the whitepaper is written by people whose goal is to attract the attention of the investors just by a beautiful spelling, and the company may not even fulfill its promises.

When investing into a project WP is a must read for me, but it is only one of the elements I am analyzing. It helps for us to understand the essence  of the project but if there is no capable team to realize the written in the WP than it is worthless.

Of course not. People can write in whitepaper whatever they want. You need to analyze not only whitepaper but also the team and most importantly and their previous experience. It is not necessary to have experience with cryptocurrency but check if they have successful experience with multi million projects before.

White paper is more like an excuse to let the public take dust in your eyes and collect the fastest amount you need.

Of course no. WhitePaper it is the important part of ICOs Marketing and we should understand that only part of the information in WhitePaper is fully true. Sure if this ICO not a scam.

The truth is that most whitepapers promise the world and the associated projects follow this up with an unsubstantial product. There seems to be overuse of the now commonplace buzzwords such as Artificial Intelligence, Next Generation, Platform, Logistics etc, most whitepapers will include several of these buzzwords in an attempt to appeal to as many people as possible, knowing full well that their platform isn't Next Gen yet, nor will it offer any sort of A.I. Unless it's a technical whitepaper, treat everything contained within with extreme skepticism.

No, I do not. Whitepapers might give you an insight to a project, and maybe make you understand what it all about, and how certain things are meant to be achieved, but it is never a  guarantee for the success of the project, so I do not have my complete belief and trust in them.

If the content of the whitepaper it nice and pretty good then give an overview of its contents is reasonable. but when it does not have a clear concept of content and it will be quite doubtful. communication tools like a whitepaper or resource information between projects and investors. in the absence of that I think investors will also hesitate to invest.

If someone reads the team's project on the whitepaper, they can use that knowledge to understand the team's progress on the github. I'm sure if the project is real then they have to push their code regularly

Yes , undoubtedly when I heard about new projects , my first job is to read their Whitepaper . The whitepaper really tells us about the project. Whitepaper should be written by very professionals.

In my opinion, white books are very important to understand the quality and potential of the project, but this document cannot guarantee the success of the blockchain platform. Every project must have a good team with high-quality advisors. If these details characterize developers in a bad way, they are not included in the Whiteaper.
