Just superficially, because by the way I don't believe too much in what is written: most part of an ICO is just marketing, and they spend a lot of time to make sure that anything appears good. So, I try to understand if there is any substance behind the appearance.

I'd say like this. If you want to participate in an ICO, it's essential to read the whitepaper from top to bottom. And not only whitepaper - the roadmap, review the website, read blog posts, media articles, research and get the most information possible. But if you just want to participate in a Bounty campaign, I think scanning through the whitepaper will be enough.

White paper is like the contract of the tokens to the holders if they mess up with the white paper they wont bother messing up your investment

I do read the white paper but before doing that I do check many things. Reading the white paper is something that you do just to check out the last details on investment.

Let be real. How many of you guys actually read the whitepaper? I read whitepaper sometimes, but reading multiple of them can be a burden and a headache. Do you guys got any tips on getting through whitepaper a little faster. It killing a lot of time. Thank.
Oh, I have such a sin, too. They often write that you don't understand anything!
But I always ask questions, read comments, reviews, look at the ratings, site.
Everything everyone need as investors is always on the website. Whitepaper will not solve anyone's solution. In fact, I have seen whitepapers that are not pleasing to read, but the project at the end of the day, turned out fine. Maybe you guys should go check out bitcoin's whitepaper.

Grin ... What I am just implying is that, look for the team that you are sure will do what they say they can do and not by just some copied and pasted whitepaper.

I read all of information of new project before making any investment (from whitepaper, website, code, comment of others about the project,...). To safe your time, you need to practising skimming and scanning skills while reading.

I always look at whitepapers every time I want to participate in the bounty or if I want to invest in the ICO, because I think that whitepaper is very important to know the ICO in the future.

I always do now.  Didn't do that in the Beginning & probably could have saved some heartache if I did.

Yes that's the first I am finding on the coin/ICOs I'm searching for the background that I want to spend my money so I can know if that coin/ICOs are a scam or not and has a big future for my money that I want to spend or not. It's a really a lot to read but it's really worth it I suggest might you have to read it always.

i think if you want to invest in a project then doing research about their whitepaper is must to all investors, without any information about the project then investing into the project is extremely dangerous, we can easily put ourself in danger without knowledge. There is no shortcut in investing your money into cryptocurrency.

I actually loled in real life when I read this.  You sound exactly like a selfish, entitled narcisist with no work ethic.

And you expect to get profit?
Are you a millenial?

The whitepaper is one of the most important places to look at to determine if an ICO is a scam or not.
On top of that, the whitepaper will inform you on how professional and well thought out the company is.
If you are too lazy to read whitepapers, you might as well ball up your dollar bills, throw them into the air, and hope it comes back somehow with even more money.

Well, I actually do have some tips on getting through whitepaper faster: it's called being highly literate.
And here's how you become highly literate: you start by READING.

Hmmmm, maybe I'm being too harsh?
But speculative "investors" who don't know anything about market economics and investing really heart the overall health of the cryptomarket.

I usually ask the dev of the thread if he could explain to me briefly what makes the coin special. If the dev explanation is not clear to me or refuse and  refer to the whitepaper , i don't bother read or invest in it. But if he can explain it to me clearly even if it is brief, I check the whitepaper and the roadmap if its worth the risk t invest.

Yes ofcourse this is a must so you can find out if the coin you want to invest is good for your money or not. You can determined also their if those ICOs are scam or not because you will see their team members their and roadmap.

Actually, yes. The whitepaper is the only tool we have to understand something of the business, and even it's no perfect, with a little attention we can detect at least the most obvious scam.
It's about my money and my time, I don't want to lose them because of laziness.

I don't unfortunately read white paper, it gives me headache too and just confuses me (I suddenly have lots of questions). To be honest I don't even believe, that white paper can make a project succeed. There are people/investors decision, whether the project has a good product to produce, white paper is theoretical business plan, written to attract investors, but when the product comes out in the market, even investor can't help if people don't like the product. So it's good to read for additional information and it gives you some advantage bonuses, but it doesn't give you 100% that the project and the product will succeed as it's written!
May be I'll change my mind in the future, but for now I just don't have time to read all of it. Go through particular parts

Yes, I always read all the information about the project in which I want to invest. Thanks to this, I analyze the project and can distinguish a good project from scammers.

It is the only way to chose the correct project for you, so don't miss any detail and analyse whitepaper if you want to invest your money and to get profit in future. Other way you can just lose everything you invested, and you will think about whitepaper and would you read it carefully next time.

Yes Im reading on it especially the TOKEN SALE PERIOD part and rules like (freeze tokens, allocation, distributiongs etc). Sometimes token sale period are being mentioned in Whitepaper and not present on the website or ANN thread.

But for other details, Im not really literally reading on it unless I found something special on the discussion of the ANN thread.

To be honest, at the beginning I just quickly read white papers.  But now I'm more careful and I read everything. I suggest you do the same.
