I trust the ICO ratings to a certain extent. The problem is just that the project teams pay them to do the rating. So, the rating may be in line with the payment made by the team project. But I still trust them because if the rate a scam project high, it comes back to harm their credibility.

No, by no means. I never trusted the ratings of ico. My opinion that all estimates are in advance paid. And who did not pay those, those were given the lowest marks. If you do not watch any ratings, then analyze.

I think those sites are gaining profits somehow, they are probably getting paid to promote certain projects but that not necessarily means that the project they are getting paid to promote is bad.

Not much really, it has been known that sites like ICObench or ICOreview receive money from ICOs to have their scores altered in their favor, I only use those sites when I want to have a simple view of what the rest of the project is all about, is always good to do our own research and trust our instincts when it comes to investing.

The ico review site is really good. I use ICObench and believe in it. There they have experts and experienced people to evaluate the ico project. So for me it is very reliable

To tell you honestly its one of the things that i do to do a research to an ICO before investing. I usually read the whitepage and look at the people behind the project. I also look at the ICO rating sites to make it a reference. Its not the main factor for me to invest to an ICO because its have a good rating, but its one of the few things that i consider to invest to an ICO.

Not completely. ICO rating is quite helpful in convincing the assessment of a project, but sometimes the assessment is subjective. This is because I have been stuck with a scam, even though the ico rating is close to perfect.

Yes of course I trust some ICO rating sites than any other information that the other people given to the investors but it also depends on the campaign that you will choose to invest. That's why trusting in any ICO rating sites must be have a great time of reading and researching about their project that we invest.

I do not completely trust them 100%. I do believe that ico ratings are just a stepping stone to know more about a project

Everything in crypto now is all about how much bitcoin or ethereum you are ready to pay, more than 50% of those ico rating site are just there for money, if you want to get good rating pay higher amount of bitcoin or ethereum. It's pathetic anyway, they are just misleading crypto investors, so I don't believe them. I have seen some ico that got a good rating on theese rating site but ended up been a scam but there are some genuine ones though

actually the first site I often use as reference in selecting projects. However, unfortunately now it looks like it's been not so influential a lot. because it turns out that many of the ICO with the rating is high, but the quality of his less great ICO.

Definitely I don't totally trust it because sometimes the ICOs with high ratings turned out to be scam or not successful while the ICOs with low ratings are the ones who is dominant in crypto markets once they are been officially traded.

I have never fully trusted ICO ratings sites, but I still pay attention to their analytics. I think such ratings are still useful to some extent, but information from ICO ratings alone is not enough to make a final decision on investing.

They seem biased to me. A friend of mine who's doing an ICO told me that they paid 10ETH for 5 quality ratings and that's that! I noticed that some ICOs with good project, team, and good social media presence are struggling with getting good reviews.

With all that said, should it still be a factor to look at when investing in ICO?
I have also felt it, some time ago I found an icoscam project on the ico rating site. so I agree with you that the site really sided.

Yes, I trust the ico rating site. Like the icobench there we became aware of whether the team from the ico project did KYC on icobench or not. So I trust the rating site.

in my opinion, believing not to believe on the negative side of the ico could be working with website providers, but positively there are people who review the comments column
