I had suspicions that many websites that issue IKO ratings are left, but that's it! One of the leading such sites turned out to be a pyramidal-MLM-system of corruption!
ICObench.com - how to become an expert and earn from $ 2000 a month?
For greedy money or poor, this post is a guide to action. For companies wishing to enter the ICO - the methodology of deception. And for investors suffering from a scam, it's time to think.
So. In the courtyard of August 2017. Purely from sporting considerations and to maintain an analytical grasp - I, like many at that time delved into the sphere of the blockbuster: I watched the market, analyzed the possibilities and estimated the scope of future earnings with the violent growth of the bitcoin rate. And after a long enough time to search for an analytical site, I stopped my gaze on only the emerging project - ICObench. At that time it was a simple, and somewhat inconvenient, data warehouse for the ICO, where occasionally some estimates of unknown names appeared. In the test mode, I created the first account (I always do this - even here, on Facebook, the "test" page first appeared). But my eyes and analytical mind first pierced the projects that were glaring at impudence, in which almost every page was written "we do not refund money, 50% of the organizers, we can not cipher - therefore we do not give guarantees for the project!", And then no less amazing his maximum marks.
I want to note that at that time experts ("appraisers") did not need to give comments and explanations to their assessments.
As a person who has a bearing on the financial and technical development of projects (including the protection of projects in state structures and banks), it all seemed like a wild pockmark and the divorce of poor or poorly educated people in the financial sector. And, in order to defeat the newly-minted CEO (CEO) with a sledgehammer of their own incompetence - I ran to register a real account in the ICObench system on my own behalf.
After successfully obtaining the status of an "expert" (for a couple of hours), I set to work. First of all, I contacted the administration with the purpose of proposing to make some changes to the rules for the "experts" and the site's search engine. To my surprise - the proposals were accepted and after some time they successfully earned. After that, I began to gain weight points in the system almost instantly.
I want to note that the weight of the expert's rating in the system was influenced by several points: the number of ratings left, the time registered in the system as an expert, the experience of participating in other ico, participating in crypt conferences and helping to develop the ICObench project. And the more your overall rating - the more you influence the evaluation of the project (understand - what am I getting at?).
In the first weeks, the review of the new ICO took me a few days. With an understanding of all possible documents - I left estimations carefully choosing words. But I was infuriated that some "experts" did not leave a word, they have a higher rating in the system than I do. Competition - there is competition. And after a little correspondence with ICObench, new rules were introduced - a mandatory written evaluation of the project. After that, the reviews I left earlier added enough "mana" to skip the evaluation of the project from 4.5 to 3.8 points. And with some other rating experts in friends - could bring down the score down to 2.2 points, if the project in our opinion turned out to be full zashvarom or divorce.
But, at some point, I began to receive letters from those very unsatisfied CEO estimates, with requests to "review the assessment," "talk on Skype" and even "fly to Spain to chat." By me, such obsessive evaluations of communication are regarded as a threat - and in this desire I refused to ignore.
The matter is that in the ICObench system, any previously left estimate can be changed, and the commentary is supplemented or deleted. Most often, such requests came from projects. And although I have not been in "experts" for a long time and I have nothing to do with ICObench - requests to influence the evaluation are still being received.
And now about the most important thing - about earnings. How much does it cost to write a review on ICObench, if you are registered in the system as an "expert"? On the exact amount I can not say. But in the tobacco lobby, I was told the following figures: From $ 300 for the change in the evaluation of the initial expert. From $ 500 for an average assessment with a small summary of the project. And from $ 700 for a good evaluation with an excellent, detailed resume. (initial-medium-excellent - this is the weight of the voice of the "expert" in the system). This as for real characters.
But there are robots (clones) in the system. These registered and supposedly real "experts" are created solely for the purpose of selling ratings. Most often these are couples who got wind of the "Urvi dough" and "quick money" on the ratings of friends and family. Clones can be bought (with a page in FB and LinkedIn) or created by yourself. And through VPN quietly evaluate projects with prepaid for wholesale.
How to search for clients? It's simple. You can send a personal message to the newly made ICO directors at Linkedin or on the same FB with the advertisement of their services. Or, leaving angry comments with poor ratings on ICObench - wait until they contact you. They say that forums also do a good job of finding customers.
And now about me. And here everything is simple - I do not want to take part in this farce. This kitsch, the loony guy and the divorce me is already too annoying. Before that, back in December of last year, I was preparing an article about such frauds in the crypt and ratings area, but did not publish it, because a) ICObench promised to fix the situation, since such infa would have affected their status b) it was not it is interesting to throw shit.
Perhaps, here I will finish. I'm interested in the crypt sphere, but because 95% of all projects are scum (the remaining 5% are purely technological projects) - I do not want to have anything in common with existing ratings. Moreover, I do not accept companies that support the shadow sector, the sphere of fraud and deception, which are not registered anywhere and do not pay taxes anywhere, working as a bandit "on trust", Russian hiding behind an English-speaking mask and deleting projects that are unfavorable for their own rating (I'm talking about ICObench now). Recently - I hoped for the best, but today I'm far from this and this approach is not accepted.
And as a summary of my advice for each ICO and investor - do not be tempted by ratings and boycott such resources. And if you do not believe me - go and try it yourself!
