I'll be honest, having to shift through whitepapers as part of my job I get that many concepts aren't even well though out before putting into writing. Many ICO teams have a half baked concept and solution to a potentially made up problem and seek to raise funds over that. I'd really hope to see better whitepapers from more ICOs before they go into the fund raising phase.


     I feel you man, some ideas are even copied ones or is just picking up the abandoned project or ideology of some team of developers who failed or have lost interest into continuing to improve their projects. These time is the scariest when I think about it because investors do not ask that much questions anymore and do not take into consideration the small things that can really make a difference. Nowadays, I think that even a project that aims to make a humanoid dog would make millions if managed well and advertised well. I hope people would choose more carefully about what ICOs they would invest on so that it would be harder for shitty projects to even get by.

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.

lol indeed headache. I usually don't read the whole whitepaper. but just the important thing like about project, and team, and roadmap.
many ICO's has 40++ pages of whitepaper, it will be pain if you have to read those all.

I don’t want to be lazy in reading whitepapers also their roadmaps, community and hard caps. Those are the key for me to learn about the project I want to invest of my time, effort and of course my money, because for me I have the full responsibility what will happen in the end of the project. Even in my bounty campaigns I also read their whitepapers because it helps me to get a lot of information. Reading is good, learning is better.

Yes of course. A whitepaper is the most important thing to read before you join the project.
You can judge the project value only see the whitepaper.

Actually it's just impossible to understand all White Papers and projects you have read.
You can read all WP in all projects on BTT, but nobody can understand correctly all projects ideas and can't make a right prediction about it's future realization.

Sometimes you can get an onepager, that is great if you don't want to read a 40+ pages paper.

To be honest not always. I normally distrust anything that takes more than 2 pages to explain, because complex business are many times the wrong business, so not always no.

The material on the white paper is technically a project so not everyone will really understand, I myself read all the contents of the whitepaper but not everything I will understand, at least I take the meaning of what I read.

Whitepaper is so long. So sometimes, I feel very lazy when I read it. But if I really want to invest in that project, I'll read it carefully Smiley

As a bounty participant I have never read any White Papers. It doesn't worth my time.
I just look some rating sites like ICObench and then join or not.
But investors must to read WP of course

In any case and under any circumstances reading is mandatory especially when dealing with whitepapers is very important to generate a good investment. It gives an idea of the purpose, the ideas behind the project idea and the roadmap of the project, as this is a very important aspect that should not be skipped.

Yes, of course I am. This is one of the most proven sources, thanks to which you can distinguish the scammers from other projects.

Reading whitepaper is essential to make any good investment. It gives a prespective about the goals, the notion behind the project and roadmap idea of the project. Only when i find the project worth from the whitepaper, i make my investment. It is a very important aspect which should not be skipped.

Im sure the most people do not read whitepapers. I think they are less then 5% who are investing in a ICO who read the Whitepapers. If im honest, i do not read it. I read the short about the project, and the opinion of other people in the telegram groups and hier on bitcointalk. If theres a real scam project, it will be clear. But they can write a very good white paper and it can be a scam too. You never know!

Yea, people out there will write your whitepaper for super cheap -  with a bit of effort, i doubt most people could tell if it was a scam or not.

If the project attracted my attention by a good team, first-class idea or successful advisers, then I will definitely read the white paper. I will not waste my time reading white paper of mediocre projects.

Yes, I do read Whitepapers. It helps in giving detailed information about the project and it gives understanding about what Blockchain and cryptocurrency is.
