Topic: ICO Bench, what are you doing? - page 3. (Read 769 times)
Ofcourse some of review are not reliable i can see so ma y successful ICO which has a very low rating on icobench.
I do not believe in ratings on such platforms, I heard that expert rating can be easily purchased. In any case, it is better to do your own analysis when choosing any project.
If there is anyone to blame though that would be us, the community because we gave them so much power. If people were using their brains instead of investing based on a meaningless score, they wouldn't charge that much money for listings etc. and they wouldn't get rich on our back.
In general, people should always follow their own criteria. Even if all the ICO rating sites reviews are absolutely legit and unbiased, they may simply be wrong, and you could be making a mistake based on another person's opinion and not yours.
Personally, I like this platform. I do not pay attention to the estimates and try to independently evaluate the project, but through ICO Bench it is convenient to track the latest ICO and information about them.
Yeah I smell this bullshit a couple month ago before hackernoon publish an article, ICO bench always change their rating sometime like konios ICO, maybe 4.5 rating ia given because of money
I don't trust icobench because their rating and expert review untrustworthy, I think some of them is pay per review to increase high rating score, my opinion is icodrop better than icobench, a lot of project listed on icobench with high score, but project owner run away at the end, I just use the site to check the project ICO price, other information: don't trust it
It is an open secret, this is one of the ways they earn money! I remember of one ICO called RoomDao where ICO Bench tried to extort the owner. I remember reading a medium post made by the owner of Roomdao on this very subject. However, I am not able to find it now because the issue may have been solved between them and the ICO also moved to a different owner.
Also one ICO Alethena launched an investigation on this and the findings are shocking. I encourage you to read the medium post below to get the full picture,

This rating platform is botched up pretty badly and an informed investor will never decide on the basis of ICO Bench rating.

In my opinion, all the reviews are not reliable, the projects can use the money to buy good reviews, too easy to do it. So take a look at the review pages as a reference.
I'm not sure why is everyone surprised honestly. This is a well-known fact, ico rating sites are not really to be trusted. Most of the reviews are pretty much fake or sponsored (bias) and that's why you find people falling into scams all the time.

Suspicious activity on our favorite site icobench.com
It still began with the article https://hackernoon.com/beware-of-ico-bench-97addacfedc7 from Philip.
Where he unflatteringly speaks about the experts on this listing, also looking at several ICOs and their ratings, I noticed testimonials from ico-experts, who say so softly contradict themselves.
What do you think, is this their new kind of earnings?
Leave a bad review and then ask for money for editing reviews?
It is very interesting to hear your opinion.
