At me such algorithm:
1. Appreciate the external design
2. I look at the cape
3. I'm watching the team
4. Evaluate the idea
5. I watch activity in social networks
6. I look at people's opinions
As something so in brief.

You should see what the project is doing for what purpose. what product. view the white paper and the road map of that project. It is necessary to see who is the developer. and mentors and sponsors. Those are essential for an ICO.

well, i suggest that check the details of the team is a must homework. Believe it or not.
Who ever scam or had a bad past. There are traces can be found behind.
But it's time consuming. After all, it all depends on yourself if worth or not.

I used to evaluate an ICO as potential project by looking at its white paper, roadmap, website and also the volume of participants.
Does it hepls? I often evaluate projects like that.

- There is a working prototype of the product.
- All agreements and rules are published on the site, there is a competent Whitepaper
- The company itself is registered,
- The founders of the startup are people with reliable reputation,
- The startup has its own escrow - a conditional account, where the company's assets, documents and funds deferred before the occurrence of a particular situation,
- In the project team - professionals who have the experience of creating successful start-ups (however, its absence is not always a bad sign).

If ICO give a lot of information about it - it's good. If the workteam have good reputation - it's very good. As example - Komodo from developers BitcoinDark or ArcBlock ICO, when you can see strong team also.

You can also check the team thoroughly. Are all real people in the team, are there any dummies or non-existent people. Are all really working on their specialty, and not just photos from the Internet.

As I known, ICO is a kind of risky investment. Similar to the IPO which is the form of invite for capital investment, but when buying IPO, investors can research the information about the company they invested, find out about official finance reports and be protected by law when joining. In contrast, ICO projects are often rather ambiguous and unprotected by government so the risk is so high for investors.
So how to evaluate a potential ICO project, look forward to receiving comments from you  Smiley
In 2017, ICO investments soared and cumulative funding has surged to 2.8 billion as of November 2017.
People love it when things go up, but what goes up must come down .ICO not only offers a convenient venue for entrepreneurs in the blockchain sector to obtain funding, but also allows individuals to invest in early-stage projects, which were previously available only to institutional investors. It is estimated that if a person blindly invests $1,000 in every visible ICO projects, including those failed, he or she will have a positive return of more than 13 times. However, the reality is not always as rosy as it may sound. In fact, as ICO failure rate is relatively high nowadays, investing in ICO can be highly risky. There have been widespread skepticism surrounding ICOs, including unclear legal status, low liquidity, lack of transparency, etc. Investors need to exercise extreme caution on their investments.

The team, their transparency, their well detailed roadmap/whitepaper/website and of course if it is accepted by the community. Also there are sites that giving ratings for all of the ICO's, they maybe paid but they can help.  Though you also need to research, these tips of mine can help you. Goodluck in investing.  Grin
Without going into too much detail, it's understandable why the Team is the most important criteria. That is because without the proper experience, or knowledge of the vertical the company is aiming to serve it's not likely they will succeed.

If you are really interested in an ICO then make a not of :

1. Team - should not be anonymous, strong, prolific background
2. Whitepaper - Should be fundamentally solid, if not, should be Technically solid at the very least. You should clearly get an idea of what are they trying to do reading it
3. Community Strength - Are they active on Social media read Reddit, Facebook, Github, Telegram etc. A strong community means strong support
4. Github Activity - Check out how active they are on Github. How many commits and/or Contributors they have.
5. Market Cap - How much are they trying to get via Token sale and if the product is worth it?

Hope this helps!

I start evaluation of a project with a team , i mean that is more than 50% of success upcoming ico, at least for me. I looking at members of the team, of their LinkedIn accounts, if they fake or not. On the scam projects cheaters can post information about the team members who actually don't even know that they are members of the team) It is the first point you should  start!

the success of ICO depends on many things and the activity of the community. Before investing make sure you pay attention to the important points below:
Make sure the ICO has a good concept, it can be seen from the roadmap or whitepaper ICO.
Make sure the ICO is a lot of devotees, this you can see from the progress of the sale.
Make sure the ICO developers are active in updating the news and the project is also active in communicating with the community.
Be sure not to follow ICO that sells coin more than 90% of total coin available, unless unsold coin will be burned.

One more time, before choose what project to invest in, you should learn as many as you can about it: white-paper, team, product, platform and technology, roadmap, reviews etc.
in addition (if you are not an early adopter) you should also look how active the community for the project is: telegram, bitcointalk, reddit, twitter, etc...

To evaluate a potential ICO project, the first thing you have to determine which industry of the project it is, whether it is a hot or not.
Identify the infrastructure of the project based on company assets such as fixed assets or technology
Next is the interest of community in the project.

I think you should read all the information about that ico for example read its whitepaper it will help.you to know more about that ico.
Try also to check if the developers are trusted or if they have any bad background in their past project.
Rightnow too many ico are being created and i am sure some of them are scam, so always check it first and dont be too lazy.

It's easy to buy into what others say. It's also lazy and careless. Do your own research.
You just need to basically check two things. One is a good team. Two is a coin with a future/purpose. With those two, you can definitely be positive that what you have there is a good coin to invest in.

With that, go check out ArcBlock. The project this big can't avoid some criticisms. But I've done my own research and I am confident in the project.

The thing you needed to do is to read the whitepaper placed by the dev and try to understand on what is the project all about and what plans do they have on the future since for this you may find out that dev dead serious for his project. And you can also try to reach up their social media pages,telegram groups and reddit to see if their community is huge since if you can find out on how many communities/people are supporting them you may find out on what would be the outcome of their project.
Of course, as you write a lot of communities are the key to how successful the project will be in the future. The more supporters the will be more potential, I personally not often read whitepapers if want to invest, just see part of Ann on the project as well team and how big communities the project.

Well if you are not a whitepaper reader then you must correct that one since by reading their whitepaper can make you understand on what is the project all about, since sometimes coin projects gain their huge communities due to their airdrops and you might be fooled by that way since many airdrop tokens are scam and the people who are their are not actually supporting the project but making their ways to spread some fuds to dump their coins at his highest price.
