As an investor and a content writer I always read the whitepaper  of any ICO project I pick interest on to get if the project is real and secure to put in my funds also to get more inserts on what to write about the project as a blogger to avoid plagiarism. Many people find it difficult to read and understand before investing on any project which normally leads to scam and regret at the end.

nowadays there are a lot of ICOs that are created and they are trying to be one of the best ICOs and trying to raise as much money as possible, only this ICO is usually not too much the new ones are just a little different, these investors are looking for a very new ICO can have very high demand, several times I read a lot of ICO whitepapers at this time everything is almost the same and already boring.

Let mw tell you mosto fthe recent whitepaper lack technical details of the project, most can't compared to Bitcoin Whitepaper and more of a marketing Gabage, what I do recently is to look at the team, the quality of the team, the partners the project has and VC investors the project has.

Lets find out the ICO investment : white paper reading ratio.  Cheesy
I do not invest in ISO at all, only bounty and trading. When choosing a project for bounty and buying tokens (not ISO), I re-read white paper several times).

Participated in 4 initial coin offerings and I think I have read about 10+ whitepapers. Most of the time I just scan a whitepaper and if I like it I will fully read it. But going from reading it to really participating in the ICO there is a huge bridge between it. A whitepaper is (like many others have mentioned here) not enough to invest in the ICO.

There are many ICOs who have abandoned their whitepapers since raising funds. It's quite normal nowadays for projects to change their trajectory in which they are headed.

I have invested in about three ICOs and I have fully read more or less ten whitepapers. I usually just scan most of the whitepapers since a lot of them look so similar. If I find something interesting, I set it aside first and find a good time to read it fully.

I do not read white paper, if the project does not have at least an alpha version of its product, if there is already a beta version, then this is very good. I also see if there are partnership agreements and good advisors, because this is a very big part of the project’s success. I do not advise you to invest in projects based on white paper.

At one time I read a lot of white papers, but you can write anything in them. Now I choose a project by team, existing developments and site icodrops.com

I think that it’s necessary to say right away that I don’t take part in investing if I don’t read white paper, of course I read more than one white paper and I understand that in general there should be written there, I didn’t consider, because sometimes I read just like that because I have nothing to do.

I am not counting how many white paper readings I did. But speaking of ICO whitepapers, most of them are really bad and it is hard to know which one is good especially most of them are actually focusing on the product this year and not on the coin's price.

I've read a good deal of whitepapers and only participated in 2 ICOs. One paid off very well, my second is to be determined.
I invested already when the market was unimportant. Expected profit I no received, but not suffered the losses that they consider a satisfactory result.

Did not invest money in ICO.In order to invest there you need to study the project well and also consult with many people who have experience in this area because there is now a lot of ico, and many of them are just promises on paper and are worthless.

rarely I invest in the project if it does not really have good quality. but the white paper is that often times I read. It is also important because of the potential to determine the outcome of the bounty whitepaper gives an overview and results of the project will be visible from here.

The main thing is not the reading coefficient, but the result is already after. After all, we have seen all sorts of ideas on this market all the time, which look perfect on paper, and when realizing these ideas, problems arise. And after all, the influence of the project and the caps of the project and the team making it up.

Almost all of the ICO projects that I joined to have read all the whitepaper. Even when I only join the bounty campaign, I also read the whitepaper. Because when you don't, what is the reason for you to join in the bounty campaign. It is good to read the whitepaper, to know more about the project.

A very good question, because most people certainly don’t read white paper, because it may contain information that is not related to the project, but most importantly you invest money in pictures.

People keep thinking it is the whitepaper that makes an ICO what it is but in reality the truth can't be any further from reality. Whitepaper is only there to show you what the coin is promising but the important parts are the community, the team and the developers who are building said promises. If one of that fails than all of the coin goes to 1 satoshi or whatever and loses you money. If the community is not happy with the coin than they sell and price goes low, if the team doesn't seem honest and looks like scammers or something else than the coin gets low again and if the developers do not deliver the promises made on that whitepaper than the coin once again drops. No matter what you do just don't trust only the whitepaper, of course read it if you want but don't invest purely from whitepaper.

Thank you Kaka for your valuable input opening a wider room for discussion.

Usually, it is the ICO that makes the whitepaper. White-paper is also a great guide for the team to focus on. I agree that it is extremely important to keep the community informed, the team should be working as much as they can to full fill their road-map and the developers should be extremely competent. We are going to launch our own ICO shortly. If you want to get the early-bird notification about its launch date, make sure to reply to my thread here - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4732575.40
