Knowing projects before launch

[Kweek]

What platforms or websites do you use to track projects before your ICO?

Well, I don't get into ICOs these days as they've been not that popular anymore for the past 4 years. But if you're still into it, just to the Announcements (Altcoins) and Tokens (Altcoins).

And what criteria do you use to invest in them?

No criteria anymore as I don't invest on them anymore. Do people still invests on them? maybe a very few that still think that there's huge money on it but not anymore for the past years.

Many people invest! Many look for projects before launch for the opportunity and potential for appreciation. But of course, before investing, it is interesting to know more about the project and the company's proposals. At the moment, I use the FoundICO website and the Coinmarket cap as a tool, because through them I see interesting projects and I try to know more about them beforehand.

I often join the launch events on Binance Or join the Huobi premlist which is much safer from fraud. For the rest, I'm not too sure about dropping money into new, little-known projects. That's one way I did join, there are certain conditions that you must meet.

I do not think these so-called ICO rating websites are helping much for us to know and determine if a certain project is reliable or not. The ratings can be manipulated or faked (and even KYC can be loopholed like the case of Decentraworld exit scam even if its a priority project on the Kommunitas launchpad). Even the launchpads won’t help much in the KYC part too because these scammers are getting smarter than ever. We just have to do our own diligence and acknowledge  the risks before investing.

although  ico rating sometime didnt objective make review but atleast their provide information for us about new project that will released. sometimes they got paid for review and once again all decision back  to us based our own analisys and research. risk and profit in our investment based our decision not others so when we got loss dont blame everyone.

But why would you like to track icos? If this was 2016 or 2017 then I could understand what you are saying as that was the time when icos were the most popular, and everyone was talking about icos and they were trying to obtain a fortune with them, but now many years later almost no one is interested in icos anymore as the number of people that got scammed was huge and as such they have lost any credibility to investors, so I suggest that you do not waste your time in something that will bring you no benefits at all.

I don't know exactly how it can give a better chance of finding new ICO, but I see some sites like icodrops, cryptorank,... and media like tw, fb, ins, tg,... But honestly, I don't think ICO is a wise way to approach new projects.

And what criteria do you use to invest in them?

There are so many criteria that not all of them fit the understanding of every market participant. I find with projects that are built on temporary trends, there's not much to worry about and you only pay attention to the value that it can achieve the highest with valuation. As for the larger cases, the transparency factors in the operation process, such as products, team, roadmap, tokens, partners,... are carefully considered.

[Desscount]

some things we need to know in choosing a new project is that we have to know about the white paper,
how the tokenomics of their utility are, and the most important thing is the team that is in the project,
yes everything is fundamental analysis, if you have confirmed it then you can choose , is it worth buying or not

During the crazy days of altcoins which was around 2015-2017 ICO tracking sites became very popular where they used to list upcoming, running and closed coin offerings and there used to be tabulated info about the projects. There also used to be a review and a personalised rating given to each of these ICOs from the site itself.

What they lacked is transparency and legitimacy - these sites used to be paid by ICO teams to hype their projects and get "premium" tags on their website so as to get attention from the incoming traffic.

Hence never use such sites to drive your investments. Do your own research and by own I mean initiated by you, not available elsewhere like questioning the advisors on linkedin yourself. Only then you will get to know how many are just pumped by these advisors and how many are only faking about their advisors.

[niceli]

Yeah those websites were really insane considering there were all kinds of crazy stuff. These days are not really that different neither, we had so many DeFi projects that were copycats of pancakeswap, we had so many NFT's with "ape" word in it, we had many "meme" coins regarding doge, shiba, or whatever they can come up with that wordplay basically. All in all, crypto world is "originals" vs "fakes" and thats it, we will have one original that will do alright, and then we will have 100+ fakes of it, trying to make money. I really do not expect anything to grow these days, so I would stay away from brand new projects. But if I had to, dappradar is as legit as it gets, kind of like the ico listing places of the 2017 period.

Certainly you're a guy who just woke up from come.

Are you serious about ICO now? When people are talking about NFT and probably many more yet to come which sounds like this is the end of cryptos blah blah...

Anyway coinmarketcap still have something what you're looking for but I would say you can find more if you explore the ANN section of altcoins board.

Then good luck to those that still invests.

It's been so long that I've seen some successful ICOs and when the market was crowded by ICO projects but not really today anymore. I just wish that all of you that invests on it will have a great journey and make profit instead of losses.

Because that's what I'm believing right now that you've got higher chance of losing there instead of making at these moments due to the hype and trend about projects dumping and rug pulling.

Are you serious about still willing to track ICO projects/ Come on guys, ICO has been ended and we know that many types of these projects are scams? Moreover, don't trust any website that reviews crypto projects from ICO. Most of them are fake and manipulated by some paid project teams. For me, i will better analyze by myself moreover about the team and also the roadmap. However, getting into new project is very risky.

[isaac_clarke22]

-

Are ICOs still a thing these days? I thought they just disappeared already due to scams.
I never really do a "tracking" of projects that much back then except that I particularly look into ICOs in here solely and just go from there and see where it goes if it is worth my dollar.
My criteria? It really depends on the situation and the current market condition. It is not all just about the team and the WP itself.

[dark1234]

I think ICOs are no longer safe at this time but if you really want to try it's better to do basic research such as team, paper white and roodmaap and I prefer to join the crypto presale by launching a token on an exchange market because it is safer and we get income from the assets we lock

ICO is really not that popular anymore. Projects now do IEO and IDO.
Anyways, as per websites for getting such information about newly launched projects, you can visit coinmarketcap, although there are so many newly launched that are not being tracked. But you get to see them on socials when they do their promotion.
Just know that it's a very risky venture to invest in new projects. Make sure you do your research and sure that you are not falling for a scam. And most importantly, invest what you can afford to lose.

[Bitstar_coin]

I would rather stick to using the top launchpad to track any upcoming - about-to-be-launched projects and make the decision to invest, reason being launched unlike a single individual or investor has the right tools and resources to track a potential project (that is - doing the background check, vetting et'all) before introducing such projects to their community for investment. In other words, they have basically reduced the stress of DYOR for you. However,  it is important you choose a reputable launchpad for this, and again there is no 100% guarantee a project will deliver.

The @op obviously using ico in general terms not specifically for all the different fund raising names that are currently available in the market. We know ico is no longer in use, there several fund raising names like ino, igo, ido, and so on.

Yes, the issue of thoroughly researching everything is always mentioned in our minds, but when it comes to practice, people are often easily attracted to attractive words from new projects. Product hype is always happening. Learning a new project is also risky but also offers profit opportunities. I think if the OP has enough knowledge and experience in this space, it will not only resolve the issue of how to approach ICOs and IEOs, IDOs are also not an option when they have similar risks and potential.
If it is successful with some projects or fails, then people will realize which method is right for themselves. methods or websites. I also see a lot of activity in the popular crypto scene, where finding new projects is very easy. But like I said, the balance between risk and return is what makes the initial investment successful. And my experience is more in tune with what's happening in the market. Obviously, opportunities abound here. The crypto media is always awash.

[Tony116]

At present, there is no platform or website that aggregates all new projects or all the information of a project so that we can search them. All research must be done by us from so many different sources, finding a hidden gem is not easy. I often use twitter as a place to start searching and updating daily news.

And one more thing, I think ICO projects are no longer a potential investment place, you can participate in investing in newer models IEO, IDO...held on leading platforms launch or exchanges so just monitoring their notification channels is enough.

Perhaps you are confused about the concept of approaching new projects. ICOs are almost a thing of the past and are not a common approach in this space. But in recent years, forms such as IEO, IDO, staking, farm,... are the options that many new projects make so that investors can approach them. But considering the state of recent projects where the trends have gradually cooled down, there is not much incentive for developers to return to building new ideas. Just looking at some media as well as TG channels, I find it not difficult to spot or see how things are going. New projects are coming with more risks than opportunities. profit. But for better assurance like IEO on top exchanges, it's still great I think, but keep in mind it won't be for everyone and the big competition can make it hard for us to get early involvement with projects.

[raidarksword]

I would suggest to look first what the project is all about and if it has a use case in the industry that will have significance as well. Look for backers and partnerships it will surely help for you to decide whether you like the project or not. Just avoid garbage project that mostly runs on BSC network, no offense but there are lots of BSC project that got rugged.
