OMNI TOKEN PLATFORM FOR PAYMENTS

Quote from: vijendra singh on January 26, 2018, 07:37:07 AM

I daily see the new ICO campaign on twitter and other social media. I have never invested in ICO but want to start.
All the ICO show excellent white paper, Strategy and future plans which looks lucrative. But when it comes to investment in ICO , I can't decide because I don't know the basics.

Can someone guide what to see before investing in ICO.

In my personal experience and opinion, they to hover their social media networks platform like Telegram Channels because good ICOs have numbers of active members in their Telegram Channel because telegram group cannot be purge and 99% of its members are real. I anyways think this way of choosing Good ICOs from the bad ones. Good ICOs are very active in their Telegram Channel, that amazed me much.

Nowadays there are more scam projects in ICOs. So it would be better to invest in ICOs launched by institutional companies as they would be having a very good reputation in the market.Until now, most of ICOs which are related to block chain industry have been very successful. So it would be better to invest in such ICOs.

I have invested in a few ICOs. The first thing I did was briefly went through the whitepaper. Then checked their official video, researched little more about the project on google. I also like to go to their official Telegram channel to check how big the community is, what other members are saying about the project and how much hype the project has before the ICO. I become a member of the telegram for few days and decide to invest if I like everything. Grin

I have invested in RedPulse ICO, Loopring ICO and planning on Apex ICO.

what i can say is, if you really want to invest in an ICO, understand first their plans and goals in their whitepaper so that you will know if this ICO will have a potential in the future therefore you will invest with this ICO. Like this ICO which is called Daneel, this ICO will be an A.I assistant to those people like you who are new in the cryptocurrency world. This will give you information and better option on what you will do if you want to invest more. This ICO will surely have a potential in the near future.

It is not always about how good a white paper is, a white paper can be well and properly articulated but with nothing to offer. I think one has to get involved in a convincing research on the projects either they are unique or something of such has been done the past. Atimes, the uniqueness of the project sells it.

there are many websites to look for ICO references like icobench.com and icorating.com, there you will see about the investment rating and risk and performance rating thus you will find any suitable ICOs that suits your preferences. for me i choose an ICO with an existing project or an existing company that will be more legit than any ICO proposal where the project will be launch after raising the funds and that will be a prone to scam and fraud.

The Experience Layer of the Decentralized Internet

First, you can search for ratings on these ICO rating sites.

https://icodrops.com/

https://icorating.com/

Then look at the people number of telegram groups, check the white papers and technical routes on the ICO project's website, and you'll find out some useful information.

Problem with the telegram groups is that they can deceive a large number of participants with the presentation of the false value of the desireable ICO. The best advice is to gain more knowledge about the cryptos because many percents of the people have their own intentions that can result only in the profit gain ( but only for them). ICO sites are often presenting the project as it is presented in the whitepaper and in the thorough plan that the team has.
_______________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________

These days there are many scammy projects that are usually disappearing in the end with the investor's money. Listen to your intuition. By the time you will gain more knowledge that will be of some use to you when you will watch the charts and calculate the possible success of the certain ICO. Also, try to look at the market cap value because it is determining the final value of the coin after it is released. Try to find the middle value and also try to analyze the current demand for that project because demand is defining the popularity of the designated ICO.

But there is no denying that most ICO projects now have a lot of bubbles.
So the ico project is more hot then you are have more opportunity to make a profit, isn't it? Roll Eyes

First dont ask random people which ICO to invest,most of us have different point of views.There are a lot of things to consider like the product of the ICOS,the developer's team capability,whitepaper and roadmap must be clear,founder has succesful projects or he didnt came from nowhere.

Always go through the project details the company is inviting for the ICO and the team member of the track record. For this, you should follow the company white paper in details. Also, evaluate the projects long-term viability.

The problem is that not many people have time or accurate knowledge to to do proper analysis of the projects. This is why it is a main issue, given the fact that you can not evaluate every project since there are tons of them out there I see that many people opt for ones that creates the biggest buzz which could potentially easily turn up to be scams.

Exactly. The big buzz projects, like BitConnect, you have to be most careful with. If the projects end up being a scam or inefficient, then the entire market cap has a long way to go down. Low market cap coins without the buz don't have very far to go down.

By far, investing in ICOs has been my most successful trading strategy. When evaluating an ICO, I look at several key factors.

1. How solid is the team? Are there experienced members on the team, and who are the advisors?
2. How is the token used? Does their project really need a token, and how will the token grow in value?
3. Do they have partnerships? Are they partnered with solid companies that have a track record of success?
4. Does their whitepaper concept make sense? Is there a market that is hungry for what they have to offer?
5. What does the competition look like? Does this project bring something unique to the table?

Finally, I conduct research using icodrops, icobench, crushcrypto to get additional oppinions. Good luck.

First off don't look only at design of the website, white paper, how well marketing is done. Because all of these things, if scammers do it the right way, it's hard to notice. You should try to gather more information about who is behind the project and try to dig up everything about it - does that project has any DEMO versions, working product etc.

Recently we saw Benebit has done an exit scam of like estimated at around 2.7mil+ , and half a million went on marketing and exposing their brand. At least you could inform yourself more about scam ones so you can learn what to look to undercover real ones.

There are a lot of websites out there that try to break it down for you like https://www.icoranker.com/ , although you could take such websites like starting point but you should investigate further.

Do note that well written whitepaper doesn't have to mean a thing. As there are people there whose job is to write professional whitepapers for the public.

The Most Profitable Mining Pool

BASIC, let's discuss the basic in a term that everyine will understand.

As a beginner, you cannot directly pinpoint or likely guess which ICO will likely to be successful or which one won't.
As for my experience, here is some TIP that I learned from my comrades, from my research and from my mistakes.

Thins to consider when choosing an ICO.

First is HARDCAP or total capital that the team wants to raise.
Hardcap is important because most ICO that has a low Hardcap will have a higher chance of gains.

For instance; An ICO with 1Million$ hardcap will likely to 1x or more upon listing in an exchange, provided that 10M marketcap is very easy to move by supporter.

Second, you should also consider the project, the team behind, the roadmap and so on...

You will likely to learn step by step after having an exposure to forums or crypto-related groups or even medias.

While chosing an ICO in different ratings try to pick ones with lower marker caps with clear goal and roadmaps. It is very hard to find something like this (such tokensales sometines finish in an hour after the start of the presale) but they are more likely to moon after getting a good listing. Always watch the airdrops and early bunuses. With a large amount of free tokens the price of your portfolio will be washed by bounty hunters. For me the best ICO is the one without presale bonuses and wigh a low cap.

I always check an icorating for choosing the good Ico to invest. You will check the rating in every Ico listed in this sites. This could add some input in choosing to invest and whitepaper is also important in investing an Ico.

you should do on some research about those ICO, all about it
whitepaper, roadmap, team, that was and important thing, and what kind of program they offer to you ?

second, try to look on some website of ico review, better ico will be listed on two or more ico review website with a good rating

and last, this is optional but if you find a famous crypto-youtubers review those ico with a good review, it will give more value
