what should consider before investing in a coin?

[yunzau]

If you want to invest in coins, it's a good idea to do research about companies such as reading the whitepaper, looking at the road map, people working in it and having knowledge of crypto coins.

Participation in ICO or investment at pre-ICO stage is a very risky step. Its just like purchasing a shop on 40th floor and the ground floor of that shopping mall is just start to build.
There are so many ideas/concepts is trying to prevail in the market but is there any formula to separate strong project from scams/weak projects.

Which scale should an investor use to go before investing in a coin? Is it the code, or the system it based, or their community strength, or is it depends on their venture capital that how much big it is?

Nowadays, its really hard to determine on which ICO is good to invest in. because I don't see any ico that they say negative about their project. Almost all of it are positive about it. For me my basis was I am reading carefully their Whitepaper, then checking the background of their team and the owner if they are really telling the truth not just a hype or saying any promising words. Then, I also check the allocation they have for the bounty campaign too and how strong they have in terms of their token usages too.

You are definitely right. ICO projects learning which things should they have to be successful, like the minimum viable product or something else. But the fact they will have them doesn't mean the project will be successful.

I think the best  thing to consider before investing a coin is to ask ourselves, Are we ready for something big either up or down. I really don't know the flow but that is what I did with my investments. It's hard to chose which project to get into but still we need to do our own due deligence to avoid loss. Community is also one of the most important factor that makes the token more valuable, popular and fully supported platform.

I think its target market is the first thing you need to give a look What are its competitors and whats it bringing new to the whole ground Save your self some time to look up the team and maybe previous work and also how well is their marketing Great idea should have good marketing and a very good and concise roadmap

right, the potential for a coin in the future is an important consideration before choosing a coin to invest. but it is indeed better for us to invest in a few coins and don't invest for just one coin.

The two simple things will consider before investing in Bitcoin and that is how much we are going to hold and when we are going to get back so if you know this then you can do some good stuff for that investment and making a pre planned also very important.

I would suggest to consider the amount of energy that is necessary to maintain the whole system.

Thinking about the future will be more important for an investors to become an investor of a cryptocurrency because while he don't know how he can take over the current see then it will not be the worth of Bill for our future and investment will not die easy things to do if you had money you can do anything but it will not worth if you made any mistake.

There are many factors we need to considee before investing in a coin. We need to determine the project if it is good and if that coin will be patronize by the people. We need to know the platform and strategy of the project if it will grow and become successful  in the future. Also we need to know if there are huge demand on it ,if there are many investors investing on this coin and if it has a higher volume in the market. We need to be careful in investing so that we can earn profit and not losses.

[sunsilk]

An unstoppable research should be done before investing and you have to think of it for many times. Still considering investing to ICOs? they have been dry for a year now but if you're intact and still believes that and you want to pursue it.

Some factors that you should consider if that project really is sure of what they are doing. Is that token/coin that they are about to create will be use for something better? if that's just a decoy coin that's about to be dumped once it's listed on an exchange, you better stay away.

to choose the coin that is difficult to do. but we can see their roadmap, where of course there will be a breakthrough to improve their project. from there we can see whether the coin is worth investing

its complicated for us to analize projects.some projects seem look good from their whitepaper.but in fact after listing in market their investors selling coins.it represent investors dont trust anymore to dev team.

not it has absolutely no similarities to that which makes it the worst example you could have made. why? simply because when they are building a shopping mall you know there will be a building there with actual usage, you see the yare putting a lot of money and man power into building it and it won't be abandoned when it is done building.

I disagree with you. This is a good example. You just probably don’t know the stories when the developer builds three buildings, puts two of them into operation, and one throws almost completely ready but don't put, and leaving people without shelter and without the money they have invested in this building. And least of all in this case human labor is valued. The same situation with ICO projects. Often, people trust the project, but in the end they end up without money. But it cannot be said that such projects are everything. If you approach the choice of ICO carefully and carefully, you can find a decent project with an honest team.

  Aside from the considerations one should make based on their personal financial situation, consideration of an investment in a coin usually goes through this process for me:

1. What's its utility?
2. Where is it at in its life cycle?
3. What's the team's experience?
4. Read the White Paper.
5. Wait a week and see if I'm still convinced.

For me i should consider the popularity of the coin and the structure. How many years since it created. And the last one is the history of the value in our market.

[lutfi-hasan]

I always consider the impact of the losses that I will experience when I start investing in Bitcoin, because investing in Bitcoin is very high risk, so you have to think about the risks first rather than thinking of profits, because the value of Bitcoin is very volatile.

[Betwrong]

First of, it's much easier to find a decent coin to invest in among the existing ones. Currently we are at such a deep level that you can expect 10 times rise from some coins this year alone. Look for the coins which were performing well during the 2-3 years prior 2018, but had sank deeply in 2018. Bitcoin, by the way, is an option.

But if you are going to invest in an ICO anyway, research about every core team member, read all the reviews of the project on independent sites, etc. If you are not experienced in this matter, don't try to decide by yourself whether a project worth investing. Read as many expert opinions as possible and then make your conclusions.

[Yusuf77]

of course a very big risk in its investment in confidence and patience is the main capital in the investment and now we must be smart in seeing all the opportunities that we will get in investment

oh good for you but for me i dont usually look on the popularity or on the history of the coins because i only invest on the newer  ones and  most especially on ico's that i find promising because i think they can give much return compared to standard cryptos  .  i dont really care if its a pump and dump scheme but atleast i can earn something big for a quicker time  .

[Thanasis]

Standard things, doing research on all levels. Even then there are no solid guarantee that project is going to be worth of the investment. That's just the way it is on this field. Maybe list of associates and co-partners of the ICO can mean something in making choice. The support of big name, Microsoft for example, would make me believe and be more comfortable for making decisions to invest on it.

When it comes to ICO there is no big name to comfort our decision,we just have to do on our own by trusting the person on the project team,as you said the legitimacy will give some thought about investing but it may worth or not which can be only found when the project reaches real world.But coin like bitcoin or Ethereum will make the work easier lot and just invest on long term will make sense.
