Is it just me or what? I honestly dislike projects that have anonymous team when the project isn't a privacy Monero kinda thing, even few Privacy tokens have teams that aren't anonymous, shit I just feel like they are hidden for a purposes, some kinda easy getaway? What's your thought about this?

I have always said this that if you have a bad feeling about a project during your due diligence phase just stay away from such a project.
This bad feeling can be due to hidden team, bad interface, incomplete website, whitepaper or roaadmap..
In the end it is your own decision but these signs can definitely save you from loss if you make the right decision.

Well, the era of the anonymous team had long passed. Almost all project that is proposing crowdfunding now have their team members show their identities, capabilities, and academic status. So whenever I see a project that offers to crowdfund but hides their team identity, I get suspicious of it. Without any identity behind a project only means that they are free to run away with the investors' money.

It depends on what kind of project it is really. If an anonymous source creates a coin that solves real problems with scalability and the code is all open sourced there's nothing to fear. But for projects that require trust in a team of people to be a success and they are anonymous, I will never risk my funds on something like that.

Don't do it, a project with anonymous team are probably scammers, team information is very vital, this is a way of knowing how capable the team will handle a project, if you can't find any information about the team then you are alone in the dark on this one, this ain't year 2012 where majority of altcoins without team still performs better

Do you think Bitcoin had the team members revealed at its inception? Till date no single person knows who Satoshi Nakamoto who is believed to have established Bitcoin is but that has not stopped Bitcoin from getting to where it is today. I do not think that not knowing team members of projects is a bad thing or a big deal.

I definitely agree with you, 99% of the projects that have an anonymous team will likely to end up scamming the investors money or they will just abandon the project if they
already achieve their goal.

It is very easy to exit if the identity of the project creators are anonymous, so I really hate those projects that have an anonymous team even if there are very few who
become successful or still continuing their operation without any problem. As a conclusion, I hate those projects that have anonymous team and I will avoid them at all cost just
to avoid facing any problem in the future.

most of the times (take a look on scam accusation board) anonymous teams have been caught scamming people Sad

However this is not the only signal to check before trust any new product or idea. I know it can be useful but I have seen good projects even with no public team member, so this should not be the only rule to follow. Also note, scammer could launch a project with fake people or just profile created ad hoc in linkedin.

You have already answer your question: they have something not good for investors. Some projects without teams do succeed but not much does and most of them went into the dark-shortly after they mopped investors funds into their confers. Most of these cryptocurrency projects that has disappeared are likely to be operational under the scope of not disclosing their team, so, don't invest on a project which don't agreed on displaying of team publicly.

projects with anonymous team are mostly scam. And what the scammers can say is only showing monero project or telling bitcoin is also created anonymously. bullshit. anonymous team = possible scam.

Almost all projects are doing this except some projects that is fully registered and comply with the financial regulation of the country in which they are based. The reason for this is that many of this projects are being carried out by some team that already conducted a known project that is already dead but keeps pushing for another new projet. Some also do this with the aim of scamming investors

I'm sure that 99 percent of the time the team's anonymity says only one thing - that this is a potential scam. No other factors play a role here. There are certainly some exceptions, but these are the rarest cases. Usially this is always a sign of possible fraud.

easy, if you doubt it then you shouldn't get involved in it. I suggest that you follow another project that you think is safe no one forces you to do it, but if the aim is to investigate the project further so that no one becomes a victim of fraud, then that is an honor.

The team is the most important part of a project, I also always look at who the team is behind the project. If they don't make it public, it will make me less trustworthy and uninterested in investing.

Yes definitely agree with this one cause they are the one who are running the project, once the team disappear in the middle of success of the project it will collapse quickly and won't be able to recover anymore. Most the projects promotes transparency, how come this hiding team's identity becomes transparent especially for their loyal supporters.

Are there still chat groups or other social media that you can contact to just ask questions about project progress? if yes, I think it is reasonable but if not, I don't think you should continue with the project. It's dangerous if you follow a project whose team is anonymous and you don't know how they work.

the devs are anonymous but the rest were expose because how will the investor know when the infos are hidden or simply not available ? with that said , if they have telegram and you can see what they are posting in thier groups , asking question will surely give you a response but these are just simple .

they can give automated answers and if you ask them thier pic , they can also give fake pics to you . if you can invest on non anonymous projects why not and why will you still pick this one .

Yeah anonymous team is one of the first material of every rug , Since they cant be followed by police or governments and I haven't seen any team with specified team members rug , I would rather to stay away from unknow team projects , some of them like Bitcoin are still working but most of them are just frauds , It is like a jungle out there and newbies could swallowed very fast , every some very professional traders some tomes get scammed , Do you remember what happened with succiswap on binance?
The best thing i can suggest to a newbie is to trade only with top 10 coins in CMC for no rug risk and less volatility .

Anonymous team is Annoying. Now a days, too much project using anonymous team. Personally i Don't like such project. Also too much scammer using this method. Now it’s difficult to found a real project.

There is nothing wrong with working with projects an anonymous team however the entire cryptoshphere is bedevil-led with scammers whose actions had discouraged potential investors that is why we have to be watchful of the type of anonymous project, trust issue is at stake, blockchain is anonymous without ant team however it is decentralized and transparent.

Why would I judge a project because their teams aren't visible on their websites? Tons of big crypto projects have anonymous team members, this shouldn't be a problem unless you are looking someone to blame if things go wrong, you will be fine if you do your research right.

Remember the creator of bitcoin is anonymous, I think not right to judge the project as scam because they have only anonymous team, because there are many projects before that the team are not anonymous but in the end still scam and vice versa. So what is the difference between they have anonymous or not anonymous team, if they have desame scam projects? i think the best way to avoid scam project is to do a research and do not invest your money if your not 100% sure of project legitimacy.

It's caused by the project has intended to be a money grabber. Remember a trusted project will always become very transparent about all of the things that will build the trust by investors.

It's started from the code, team, partnership, product, and many mo.
The anonymous team has a very big change to be exit scam project. In the last quarter, we have seen so many scam projects came from the anonymous team. It's also quite difficult to trace the scammers when it's not revealing its own identity.
A project already created by anon team was a scam.

I guess any team can be anonymous if they will to hide their personal info, however I'd never invest in any anon project.
And I assume most if crypto investors are the same
