HOW TO CHOOSE AN ICO TO PARTICIPATE IN?

[renchan]

What are the factors to consider when participating in an ICO? I know this is subjective and depends on what kind of risk taker you are but if you are to list down the 5 most important factors, what will they be?

I think this can also help other people who are new to ICO to be more selective in where they invest and protect themselves from being scammed.

SET (Save Environment Token) https://www.set4earth.io/is a future cryptocurrencyhttps://coindelite.com/ dedicated to saving the environment by reducing the overall carbon footprint. Something that I loved about this platform is that it’s not focused on earnings, but is a way to preserve and give back to the society.

The coins are called SET. These coins are acquired by buying or renting Wardwizard’s eco-friendly product, the original company of SET. What I liked about their business design is that they are allowing third-party manufacturer combination as well. Users who buy these products through the SET token receive extra discounts.

Viewing multiple companies sharpening their efforts and resources towards saving humanity brings a feeling of satisfaction. Nevertheless, it will take years of continued hard-work to see notable changes in global temperatures and pollution levels. At least we are on the right path.

You can visit its Bitcointalk Thread:

Save Environment Token’s Team is giving 1 Million (~$190k) SET Tokens for Bounty programs. The Bounty program will run until the November 4th, 2018. We invite you to participate in our bounty campaign to support Set4Earth and to build an influential community.

These are the things I look out for.

-If the founder and teams are legitimate.

-If the founder seems like a visionary and knows what he/she is talking about.

-If the projects seems feasible and or legitimate.

I think that those things are the foundations of a good ICO. However I kind of rely on ICO rating sites and bounty sites to do the job for me.

There is no need to ask about such things, because many people are not as honest as you think, you do not need to fall for the opinions of others, so that later you are considered guilty for the loss of your deposit. You make a decision and you are responsible for it.

yes you are right to define an ico we have to do some research and some information manually, i mean we have to do it ourselves and not depend on the opinions of others because if you lose money then you don't blame others

uhhh ,,, i would like to contribute some comments as follows:
5 factors needed to test any ICO:
-1: website: whether the website is finalized, whether the site is secure or not
-2: Team development: who they are, with full profiles on Linkedin or not
-3: Roadmap: The project has a vision and direction to develop
-4: Of course, it is necessary to find out what the idea of the project is to develop in what field, in the future it can develop or not.
-5: Vote rate: If you do not have ICO assessment skills, please refer to evaluation sites like ICObench, TrakingICO.

the most important factor is the idea of the project. This should be used appropriately in using blockchain, not just some ideas that did not work in the past, and now looks good for use in blockchain.

You should focus on the the development progress. As far as i know that the reliable ico will be created a sense whitepaper, i can tell you about some examples of icos which have developing a fully working product.
Zilliqa and ONT both of projects are focusing to build a fully working product. You can try to take a look on the buddy project to and you can to analyze the product that will be created by buddy project.
Never try to consider ico as an invesment and it's really wrong. try to consider how good the ico is based on their development progress and technical things.

There are actually some basic tips that may be more advantageous even if its small than without it. I would recommend reading from ICO rating sites, I know that some of the ICOs rated there are just paying, but it actually helps the popularity of the ICO so its a step ahead from its competitors. Just be careful though, not all of those rated in ICO rating are legit.

If you are new to ICOs then its safer for you not to consider them as of the moment.

I think this can also help other people who are new to ICO to be more selective in where they invest and protect themselves from being scammed.

If you are mostly worried about being scammed, don't put yourself into a place where you are not familiar with.

I think there are some things to consider when wanting to participate in ICO. The first thing to look at is the roadmap, the second being the team.
Such topics are very useful and I think this kind of discussion needs to be discussed here.

[cryptosuotor]

You need to read the whitepaper first.
Secondly you need to check if the founder and the team are legitimate.
You need to check at the roadmap to see if the project have a focus.

[zxcv cool]

High-quality ico needs to see the team and whether there is a mark-to-market management team, both of which are equally important, otherwise it is easy to cause losses.

Yes, I definitely agree with you because these are very important things to look out for before investing in an ico. These are important factors that determines the success of a project and you should also check the community, the manager with his past history before investing in the project.

The team behind a project is the most important factor one has to consider before investing into any project. I think it is better not to invest in scam ico than to to invest into an ico that has the best website, white papers and exchange and at the end of the day the team behind them are scammers.

[nvishnu22]

ICO should be chose which has a good platform which will stay and have a market value and investors then going into an scam where you dont be benefited and ruin all your work for that ICo so its better you choose an ICO with good platform and which makes you beneficial in future.

Just need to DYOR, there's no secret to it.

Alright, I'll answer your primary question but I think there are opportunities other than ICO to look at.  ICO selection factors:

1. Product:  does it already exist? What evidence is there of the product?
2. History: Has the project already operated as a business?  How has that performed?
3. Transparency: Anon or Public project?  Either are viable but anon teams need to back things up with other tangible evidence of business success
4. Community: What is the community doing?  What talents are sourced organically within the community?
5. Communication/Marketing/Rankings: how well do the devs/leaders/managers communicate with everyone?  Do they only list to one or two listing, ranking, and/or social sites or are they on several to get more eyeballs?

Now that's out of the way... Let me ask you about Masternodes.  ICO is so 2017, have you looked at Masternodes lately?  Just like ICOs there are only a few good projects with way too many punters in the mix... BUT... it is still worth looking at just like ICOs --AND-- the thing about masternodes is that you could potentially own a share of the project that would pay dividends regularly simply for holding some amount of that coin.  Sure, entry costs may be cost prohibitive --HOWEVER-- this is changing with the onset of SHARED masternode services which are just beginning to take professional form outside the realm of shady discord rooms.  

Think about it...

[btc-facebook]

For me personally, it's quite difficult especially where there are too many ICO occur recently.
I can give you advice, try to follow local ICO from your own country because you can learn and able to observe more easily compare other foreign ICO.

At least nobody know for sure !

To choose an ICO to enter, we should choose a good ICO
This depends on each particular project, and the whole team behind that project. Selecting a good ICO is an extremely lucky option for investors. A good example is Storjcoin.
Storjcoins are the tokens, which are released by Storj.io in its ICO. Storj.io is a distributed cloud storage application, and when its main product is released, users will be able to spend Storjcoins on the storage space, in addition to being able to trade them like any other. other coin.
Another prominent example is Ethereum, which was sold at a starting price of only 0.005 BTC, and now you can see its growth potential. Ethereum is a platform for building decentralized applications of all kinds. The cards of the company called Ethers are actively used to maintain the operation of the applications that were built on the smart contract platform.
In theory, the ICO code can be used for anything, similar to Ethereum. The scope of use may be dependent on the scope of the project.
To choose a good ICO project we need to find out about the coin
For example you can go to coinmarketcap.com to find out, then you view its webisite to know about the value of coin. The point in it should be clear blockchain, have cold storage as possible.
