Do you trust ICO Rating sites?

[Marbelli]

No, I do not trust such sites. I myself choose startups by my own criteria and it seems to me that only through experience can one choose a truly worthwhile project

[dodocum]

My idea is that; i think ICO Rating sites are balloons. The results of inflated ICOs are generally not positive. But ICOs, which do not have other ratings, are better off. I don't know,  but I usually see it that way.

[yacare]

Of course not. All ratings are dependent on funding and advertising. I think they are vulnerable and dependent and therefore they should not be trusted. Some ratings may be independent, but it's hard to understand

[MKH]

I don't think for invest in any ICO's you should be depend on any ICO rating site. You should read the project by your own, try to understand why the project are and which effect can be effort in market by its. Also try to invest in any ICO's who have their real product and have plan to work for real use of their product.

I do not believe all these ratings. From my experience it was and it was not only one time then ico had a good rating, collected hard cap and then scammed

[007_Oldy]

Most of them are reliable sites. They provide information on most existing projects. However, not all sites can trust the ICO rating. You must be careful, when selecting projects it is better to perform resetting checks.

[JDS1000]

When you invest, ICO ratings are just a reference, it is not a decisive factor. You need to read the technical document of the project and deeply assess the integrity of the team, and then decide whether to invest in ISO or not.

[markalis]

I do not believe it because most ratings or assessments are people who are not competent and not independent

[onlinedragon]

Never use only one website to gather information about upcoming ICOS, different websites can show you also different information that could make you decide to invest or not. Ratings can be really misleading and many people did lose already huge amounts of money with all the scammers around who think to earn huge amount of money with scamming people. Exactly the reason why I don't like to invest in ICOS the promises are mostly bigger as the results.

[SaracenRomero213]

No, I never trusted these sites. Most likely, they provide untruthful information in order to promote the project that is beneficial for them to promote.

[Masatos]

I sometimes use the services of these sites, but it seems to me that they don’t need to be blindly trusted because projects can really pay money in order for them to be promoted by the administrators of these sites

[Bro.Jack.Brown]

Perhaps this fall was somehow connected with the division,but I think that the main market decline was because all the major investors have earned enough and left the game! After all, at that time almost the entire market collapsed!

[suryogandul]

I do not fully believe because it is only based on someone's judgment, I am more comfortable when collecting information on social media

[CircularLoGic]

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?

Personally, I don't trust any sites that review ICO projects except for ICObench. There are some respectable experts who act as ICO advisors, but still... you should do your own research before investing.

[badman999]

Heard these rumors, and kindof believe it, unfortunately, it is probably true. There is a good chance that most rating can be bought. Respect for those, which can't.

I also think that if it's true it's very profitable and certainly an example of a very good ICO project. we know that many ICO projects fail and are not profitable, but from these statements we can analyze them as examples for progress. naturally we must be able to respect the others, we are here for one purpose to make a profit.

[spike420211]

You can never fully rely on someone else's opinion, especially a stranger to you whose analyst can be bought. Only proven and honest analysts are credible to everything else you need to be treated with suspicion and recheck by yourself.

[silverleafy]

Yes, I trust them and especially the ones where are very many experts to rate the ICO project, many ICOs have over 4.0 on IcoBench, but only a few have many expert opinions. And that's very important to me.

[Ebenezer559]

No I don't trust their rating because sometimes their rating can mislead. They also human and nobody knows what exactly is going to happen in the market.

[mdenys]

Honestly,not too much ,of course I take a look at them before investing or joining bounties,but that's it,I take a final desicion based on other things.

[Rogkim1]

No, I never trusted these sites. Most likely, they provide untruthful information in order to promote the project that is beneficial for them to promote.

For the sake of interest, I once watched projects that were rated high on some sites — these projects did not bring anything to their investors. Since then, I do not trust ratings.
