Would you participate in new project if it is not listed in ICO rating websites?

[SlimShadyMmp]

Depending on the details they provide for the Project If its actually good enough and has some efficient team and backing I really dont see why not Most times things like things can even means the project is so confident on its capabilities to attract Just check it thoroughly and then if its green then Is good for me

[Mianae]

Yes I will
Most of these rating sites don't base their judgement on anything they're also paid to give their ratings which could be biased or baseless. I do my research if a project is good I join their ICO and invest.

ICO rating website could be your guide ow to know good or not an ICO for investing, the ICO rating website have analyze which one best  ICO for investing and how trust some ICO although not all of ICO rating website have correct, but I will joined based on how trusted an ICO by checking with ICO rating website.

[ecnalubma]

I will consider invest in project even without third party ratings because as most of us know that ratings can be faked and paid. Well if the specific project is clear and feasible according to my judgement and research the definitely I will go for it.

[Kencha77]

If I see the project will be helpful to the people then I will invest on it even it is not listed on ICO rating websites. ICO rating websites are just shit for me and the ratings there are being paid by the developers of the project themselves. Maybe you can use them as a basis in investing but don't just base there. Do your own research too before investing in the ICO's. Many ICO's are scams and many knows that.

[Roidz]

a good project does not have to be listed in the ico website ranking, because what is written on the ico website is not always true, maybe the website only takes data from the ico / ieo project website without finding out more information about the truth of the ico / ieo project because now there are a lot of ico websites that only chase the target of their website visitors and I think the ico website is no more like a newspaper displaying ad pages and if there is an ico / ieo project that wants to pay to the ico website then surely the ico website will enlarge -great news about the ico / ieo project that, so that it can attract investors to join.
And of course the ico web never cares, whether the ico / ieo project is a scam or not in the end.

[smyslov]

I will participate but only if the project is legit but, listing in an ICO rating is not a proof or can help to make the project legit, in cryptocurrency investing, you should not buy your reputation that's a big no-no and this is what actually happens to ICO listing, for a good price, you can have a good reputation and a high rating in their platform, and this is corruption.

[Retainly_Collie]

Nowadays there are many projects, it is not easy to judge on new project, good or not, some people think the ico rating websites may help to take your decision, others think this ICO rating websites provide fake rating due to new project can pay fees to this ICO websites and get high rating.
SO, If you find good project, is it important to you this new good project should be listed in ICO rating websites?

Appreciate your participation

I will definitely not be involved in such projects. Too dangerous for my money

[jayc89]

The ICO rating site is only as a reference for me to get information about new projects, not as a determinant for participating in the project. A good project can be identified from a professional team and experience. However, good projects are usually in demand by many investors so that the ICO rating site indirectly also reviews the project.

I would invest in coins on the website if I knew that the coins would be on the market for a long time.

[Ken_terrance]

Coins and tokens that are listed on ICO rating websites are mostly scam or shit projects as well but those projects that aren't listed on ICO Rating websites are far worse, they aren't going to get anywhere close to success ever, ICO rating websites do have their share of creating awareness for new projects

[Sithara007]

The ICO review sites are no longer neutral. There have been reports of them giving out fake reviews in return for a monetary compensation. So I wouldn't give much importance for reviews being dished out by these sites. Even if they are neutral, their reviews have failed many times in the past. Keeping that in mind, I would argue that it is not mandatory for a good project to have reviews given out by sites such as Icobench and Icohotlist. Some of the good projects may get ignored by these review sites and still give good returns upon listing.

That said, the investors should always keep in mind the fact that a good idea may not necessarily mean good returns. The most important part is the conversion of this "idea" in to a full-fledged product. And it is at this stage that most of the ICOs falter. So I would say that in case a project is having a good idea, and the development work is somewhat complete, then you can go ahead and invest in it even though independent third party reviews are not available. But always keep in mind that investing in any ICO comes with a certain amount of risk. 

[Arsenyo]

I don't really care about project not being listed in ICO rating websites. I had situation when project gets the highest mark on ICO rating websites but eventually they turned out to be a totally failure or scam. Rating there are not always true, unfortunately, and it's a well-known fact.

[spydee1522]

ICO rating websites are no longer doing what they started of initially but are currently doing what suits them to earn more. These ico rating websites are currently seen as a big promoter of scam projects by rating these scam projects with high rating values which aren't true and eventually these projects are failing out there day by day. personally yes, I will participate in a new project if it is not listed on these rating websites due to their fraud nature off late.

I think everyone has their own way before deciding to participate in a project. For me personally, I will look more at the product and the team behind it, the activeness of the team to respond to every question and update about the project they bring to me is more value that makes me start interested and will be more observing about the project. And for ICO rating is not a consideration for me because sometimes they make fake ratings to attract investors as you say.

you have a wrong judgment. ICO rating website are no longer trusted in the community
They do reviews and ratings with some amount of money, the bigger you give the better you receive. we are not in 2017 anymore which they need to review ICO just to get more audience. Now they have the viewers and they reach their goal, they are into money now.

Well, i don't want to participate in any ICO anymore, i might consider investing to a project if they will use IEO on a good exchange like Binance.

[Alexandr Kirichenko]

I think that there is no need to trust anyone and sites. Only yourself and verified information. It is better to study the project, documents and technical side well than to trust the rating from the site. I'm sure these ratings are easy to buy.

[Redemption59]

if the project is worth to invest why not,, those ico review website are paid by those dev team to promote their project and gain more investors. not knowing mostly project that are listed on ico review website are scam or fraud or  after their ico no intention to  continue their project.. now the new trend is the IEO much better than ico

I think this is right as any projects developing team can lure to pay these ico rating websites to promote their projects and attract as much investors as they could and when they gain much from these investors, they decide not to continue with the project again. The introduction of these IEO's will surely help and only with regulation will investors turn back to ico's.

Ico rating websites are not a good bases of finding a good ICOs. The websites are only paying websites which they advertise ICOs. It is now risky to make investment in ICOs due to the scammers so we should be careful in making investment.

[bgaf]

I dont think relying on ICO rating site is a big plus point for a projwct. Remember this rating sites have payment in order to showcase the projects. Yes it does help reach people but the problem here is the project might just a gang up project or paid ads alone. If you really like a project you should investigate well this one. To answer the OP, yes I did invest or follow some ICOs not in rating site. My comfort zone on finding new project is the forum. I trust experts here more than ico rating sites.

[Aabcde]

In my experience, ICO rating does not affect anything even if a project gets a good rate there. Because they only judge in terms of time, I mean, the assessment is done only at that time and not for the future. Many ICOs that I followed through the advice of the ICO rating but the fact that when the coin was launched and entered the exchange, it did not give me an advantage for the purchase of their coins at ICO. In fact, if I Hold the coin, a big loss instead. I'm done with ICOs.
