Now I am focusing to invest in ICOs. As a regular bounty hunter, I can realize which ICO is good and which is bad. Because I follow the most trustful ICO rating website Icobench, I have enough time to read project's whitepaper and look after at their community activity. But recently I realized Icobench's rating is not everything! I want to mention some ICOs name that had an impressive positive rating! But they couldn't raise even 1 Million USD! A project like FTEC, Enkidu can be a good example. What is the reason here?

When you invest in ICOs, what thing you take seriously?

Not all ICOs that can be considered as a great one can raise millions of dollars. Not all bad projects can't raise that amount.

When you invest in ICOs, what thing you take seriously?
I won't invest to it until now but if ever there's something interesting with ICOs, I may try to get involve with a bit of my spare money. I'm still looking for an ICO that will catch my satisfaction and until now I think I haven't caught one. And not all of those ICO rating sites are accurate and transparent.

I could say it's almost 99% of ico rating site can't be trusted, if you have seen people are still saying about icobench, icorating and any other ico site can be trusted and it's a lie. The hyped icos come from the institutional just like RSK bitcoin. They main key is about to find such a hyped ico that created a lot of noise and a lot of people are wanna buying it.

There is a lot to check in ICO's, one is to check the team, are they known? do they have experience in this industry?
Also, one thing more is to check if they partner up with a blockchain marketing firm.

I rarely visit them now after knowing that you can pay for a good review with an ICO there.

That's already decided that this is an industry where they can make money through reviewing it through a marketing way. You don't rely to any of them anymore and have your own understanding and accept the fact that most of ICOs are just hyping themselves just to be able to reach their caps.

I read white paper, analyze the project and team members. In addition, I look at which publications appeared publications about this project. Still looking at the ratings of famous sites.

You can do all of those things but there is no guarantee really here that a good project can also get a good response from the market. One thing for sure is that bad projects can even perform good because the response is quite good. There are many factors why a project can be explosively successful yet even if those factors are also present in another project there is no guarantee that the same thing can happen into it. Maybe I guess the factor of luck is also playing here.

Right now, there is that downtrend interest happening in the ICO platform. People are now realizing that ICO projects are now anymore the best way to make some profits as many have lost money here big time. This is the truth that we have to face especially this year. However, there are always exemption to the rule as they say because from time to time there can be projects that really showed up and become very successful...finding projects along this line can be quite a big challenge.

not all ico with good rating will guarantee a huge profit because now a lot of ico have a good rating but a scam or fail to achieve softcap to determine ico we just need to see the products and teams that are on ico

the first thing I saw and checked was the team or developer. all their backgrounds, experiences and portfolios must be verified valid. second, I prefer ico who have launched or released their platform before ico starts.

rating site, do you believe that? may be okay, but a high rating should not be the first choice for your investment, do a re-analysis to get maximum results, because a high rating is not a guarantee that ico is promising.

When you invest in ICOs, what thing you take seriously?

You are spot on! Just recently , a project called Levelnet was not able to launch a successful campaign despite its great idea. I believe that these days it is better to invest in ICOs that have a working product instead of an idea. Also I believe that ICOs that have an existing business structure will drive in the cryptospace

So for me, i like a project that has a working product and a experienced team

The first thing is their Telegram channel, it is must attractive, exciting, admins team always respond to members when being asked about their project.
The second is the wallet address they are using to receive the investment of investors.
The third is their roadmap and their partners.

Of course first thing to look when I'm going to scrutinized a ICO’s is their working products how feasible it is and the partnership of some companies who patronize the product and of course the roadmap of the white paper is fully defined and updated accordingly.

what I saw before participating in an ico was the concept from ico, if the concept of ico was felt to be good for the long term like banking, finance, and sometimes the concept of gaming was good, but not just the concepts that I saw, and sometimes I also read the whitepaper from ico, but only occasionally because I am also lazy to have to read writing that consists of several pages, and most importantly don't just depend on the rating of an ico, because rating does not guarantee the success or failure of an ico. actually I participated in an ico not to invest in the ico, but I participated in the bounty campaign, but participating in the bounty campaign also needs to do research on the ico because I also don't want to participate in ico which will only become an ico scam.

I've observe that to successful ICO's as well. A partnership with a good marketing agency is an instant marketing as well.

That's true, I think it is a key for ICO's to reach success. Marketing strategies are very important coz even if the project had a great value and potential if no marketing strategy in place, then it'll be waste. I've seen such ICO's who failed in reaching their softcap and cancelled their ICO.

A marketing agency I can recommend to you is crowdcreate.us. The company works on three simple marketing formula; community management, crypto influencers, and public relation. With Crowdcreate, you can easily get your ICO featured in top-tier PR publication.
They are experts in handling community, I've been to some of their handled community.

Icobench rating is not a guage towards the success of the project. The essence of the project itself will determine if it will be successful or not but of course the guidance of the team working behind it.

Because a project didn't raise enough money does not mean it's fake or scam, it could be bad marketing or lack of expertise within their team. The team behind every project is very important, they determine the outcome and all possibilities within the project. Mfchain is one project I have seen with an excellent team, making it worthy of investment. Checking up profiles and track record of a projects team members will help in making good investment decision.

You need to make a great research before investing. I usually spend 5-6 hours to investigate one project. Firstly, I am reading the whitepaper, than I look at the fundraising level. The last but not least, I am usually checking the community numbers in Facebook, Telegram, Twitter and Reddit.
