What is your opinion of whitepapers you read.
I'm asking because I read few and was very inaccurate, very confusing.
Please let me know your opinion, thank you.

Whitepapers can be as confusing as it can get. There are others that are not confusing because of a complicated plan but simply because it was poorly created. You will have to reach out the developers or any point person for that matter in order for your concern to be addressed. They will have to respond to you because the whitepaper is one very important document in a project.

A white paper is an authoritative report or guide that informs readers concisely about a complex issue and presents the issuing body's philosophy on the matter. It is meant to help readers understand an issue, solve a problem, or make a decision.

There have been very few whitepapers that have really made sense to me. The point is that the whitepapers that I as a reader have loved reading were Bancor, Proemtheus, Bitdice and some more but nowadays projects come up with Whitepapers which 40 pages -60 pages long. Who would care to read so much matter and plus when half the content is not something that even makes sense. I find the same content is repeated most of the times and they just change the words here and there to make it long enough. They need to add some real-life examples and make it an interesting read. They aren't even technical but absolutely abstract which makes it unappealing.

Whitepapers are something which if read from the originators of it, then it does make sense because when I read translated whitepapers I get confused on too many words for which I need to check back the English whitepaper from the ANN and then translate it into my language on my own. But they really give a glimpse of the originality of their projects they come up with, and we should definitely give some time to understand their perspectives before blindly investing in any ICOs.

I always read, everything on the web and including white paper. clearly it is very decisive a product that I want to involve. if not it is tantamount to careless. because for me, all must be known and learned, if you want to get something useful.

- > Most of the ICO's hire freelance writers to write a technical white paper which doesn't make sense.
- > The main idea behind the project when transferred to a white paper writer loses it's accuracy as described by the origin of an idea.Works the same way as Teacher teaching something to the student and then student trying to teach his friend from whatever he could grasp from the teacher.Information is lose you see!
- > White paper shouldn't be confusing,at least the gist of it.They should clearly mark out the problem and the drawn solution.

For me, White paper seeves as business proposal for an ICO. Through whitepaper people can have an iverview of the project and can assess if it is such a good investment for a period of time ir not. In an ICO whitepaper is the first I am putting attention at.

A necessary but not sufficient condition. I'd never invest in a project that doesn't have a serious prospect, whether its called a white paper or something else.

However, that doesn't mean the existence of such a prospect implies the project is good

Whitepapers are one of the most important things about a project. You could have an idea about any project after have a look, but you should definitely understand all of the points clearly if it is a well-written whitepaper. A good whitepaper mostly means a good project.

But a lot of project especially to the developers can't write a whitepaper in a good structure, Because a lot of the just contain bunch of the senseless information and they are not structuring.
There is a methodology to write a good whitepaper but a lot of them are missing it.

You are right, some of them skip to explain their projects details and points, they just fill the pages with usual copy-paste arguments.

Inaccurate in what terms? I read whitepaper too, they have the problems and solution on why they are conducting in such event. Whitepaper is thesis like (Philippines) if you're graduating students. They make a problem and it should have the solution then they will present to our instructor. Reading those enlighten your knowledge and being aware of the environment.

ICO creating a whitepaper to better understand on what they are aiming at cryptocurrency.

Thank you all for your answers, I think we must be more careful with new ICOs whitepapers.

Its almost the same thing for me these days, various 'decentralized' platforms nothing more. Although a majority of the coins are like this, I like the whitepapers of unique tokens which aren't just about decentralization and work towards greater goals. What makes a whitepaper more viable is the ideology behind the whole project outlined in short and simple words for common understanding.

I think it's not the same as every white papers. each different ico delivers their ideas and ideas, as well as whitepapers.
before reading i try to get to know from concept they give. I just tried to examine it.

An actual true approved white paper is fine. When people put out there calling white papers are not actually accredited anyway.
But an actual white paper is something of value.

I think the following chapters are to be read:
- technologie / solution overview and user scenarios
- token break-down
- roadmap

I would also recommend reading how the company is positioning the product in a larger context. What business problem does it solve?

A white paper is the document prepared by a party in anticipation of launching a new currency.it is everything you need to know about the currency before making your mind up.whitepaper should be simple.it should contain technology information.it should build real confidence in investors.
