How to choose an ICO for investment

[ND_INVEST]

People are writing longreads on the factors to analyze while investing in ICOs. Huge lists are not very helpful, because it will take too much time to do the research and there are too many projects one has to look at to make sure one knows what ICOs are generally like. I wrote an article on medium with 5 easy steps to evaluate an ICO before investing: https://medium.com/@nd.invest.ico/is-evaluation-of-icos-really-that-hard-eb063e1eb73f. Do you agree or disagree with the points I made there? What are the main factors you look at when you evaluate an ICO?

What you have stated here is indeed true. We do need to look and do a thorough research on the ICO project as well as the team's management and the number of experts in it to determine if it is a good ICO or not.

A lot has been said about how to spot the best ICO and bla bla bla, but the fact remains that lately, it takes sheer luck to get good ICOs. This is because an ICOs can tick all the boxes yet tank at the exchange and you'll wondering what happened to all your research and due diligence

[BADBITCH]

The best way in simple
An intensive research
Always do your own research and follow it too

Ico is not a child’s play
And it require guile and patience

This is a very difficult question to be answered. There are many factors that should research before investing in any ICO. But the numbers are too long and there is not much time for any investors to check those. So checking white papers, time duration in market, user opinion can be reliable sources.

If you’re a regular investor then you know the offers that a regular company offer. Don’t trust any unknown party. Look at the market graph and take decisions. You’re the one who is responsible for your fate!

whitepapers and paying attentioh at the websirte is important but sometimes even the most experienced ones can be fooled

There are different ways on how to choose an ICO for investment, that's why different people or investors uses different approaches in doing it. Some will rather choose the ICO after reading the white paper, roadmap and making thorough research about the ICO and the team behind the ICO check their portfolio and projects that they have handle before maybe it was successful or the other way round.

Does the company gives you a clear vision about their projects and profits? You should know about this. Take decision wisely just because you’re investing. Always have the knowledge of current market situation. It’ll help you.

Thank you for sharing, I'm happy to read it

Always remember choosing an ICO is one of the most difficult thing you would have in crypto because most of them are scam and wont reach their softcap , background and partnerships will ensure the overall success of their Project ! Like Foresting a solid team, advisors and partnerships that will change the social media industry to have fairness with content creators to earn tokens as long they contribute to the platform by doing quality contents ! By using blockchain technology the platform will have decentralize control , privacy and accident prevent and also a fair distribution based on voting system rather than traffic count which is spammable !

You should carefully examine every details on the ico that they give if its correct or true or not. Most of the scam ico are impersonating some whitepapers and tend to copy some, so be careful on it. Make a proper research first before making and investment option.

[morrongiello]

Overall I agree with all of the points you were writing. I have read the same topic on bitcointalk with a little different point, but I forgotwhich thread.

Your writing is very helpful, Buddy...
However, opportunities can still be made. The more proficient a person is, the more perfect he covers his fraud.
For example, everything is complete, both website, whitepaper, roadmap, and others.
Don't close the pot door too.
However, overall your suggestions are enough to minimize victims of ICO publications.

I disagree with pretty much everything in this article.  The flawed thinking behind this article is what has caused so many to be scammed.  You left out the only thing that really matters and that is does this project have an actual product and is there a practical use case for this coin/token?  Check out our ICO and you will see what I am talking about.  Our app is already live in Google Play and iTunes.

The Speed Shopper ICO begins at the end of this month.

I do not really agree, because many things that make ico failed even though it has a good team, brilliant concepts and profitable projects, because many factors can influence such as a fortune, market conditions, a supportive community, investors interested in the project and how much the team is willing to work for the project.

[coyote50]

you should add that there needs to be a reason for an actual token. otherwise it's really just a moneygrab. lots of projects out there really don't need the token at all

[SuiMikira]

I disagree with all your opinions in your article except the first one that is good ICO need a big and strong community. 2. Good introductory video about the project is a must. We don't need this, some good project even don't have introduction video. Before join a good ICO to invest, you must know how to avoid scam ICO first, i found a good tutorials about this, you can read HERE
