Topic: Prove that you shouldn't rely on icobench and others - page 2. (Read 860 times)
very true because if we too trust the ico rating site the results will not be too good, and now I believe more in what I see in choosing projects not to depend on ico rating site because many of ratings they give are based on money because I am sure many projects are not good and pay them to give a good rating maybe above four even five stars
True, indeed the ICO rating website cannot be trusted, a lot of websites are paid for giving high rates even though the project is ugly
My advice if you want to invest in a project, do not look at how much value is given by the rating website, it's better to find out for yourself, it will be more satisfying
Indeed! Icobench and other rating site is paid website I mean in order for you to get a high rating or good feedback you need to pay them, about 3eth I think and then you need to find and pay some advisors too so that you can add their names in that icobench site, I knew this one because I have a friend that tries to open a project and he wants to have icobench rating. All of them needed a payment for them to give you stars.

You can't get a good investment advice for free from a public platform, it has always been the truth - technical analysis, price predictions, altcoins picks and all other advises that you can get from free sites, they all either worthless or straight up malicious. This is why it's a bad idea to tell people to simply "do their own research" when they are newbies - chances are they will think that reading these ICO rating sites counts as research, not knowing how scummy they are.
Even if you are right at the same time I would expect better of the people investing in cryptocurrencies, even the most superficial knowledge about this market will tell a newbie that this market is about decentralization and not relying on a central authority to tell you what it is right or wrong, and yet when it comes to decide in which coin to invest they rely on a website that is centralized and that has all the wrong incentives to accept bribes in exchange for better ratings. 
UPDATE: i just learnt that projects on ICOBENCH with good ratings from advisors are easily tampered by ICOBENCH team, for example, if a project get good rating from ico advisors but failed to pay the icobench team they will remove all the good ratings of the ico advisors and leave the bad rating only, i think we should stay away from icobench, they are disgusting
Well if that's true then that's really shady of them. what they care is about the money going into their pocket not their visitors's money to be safe. such website should be taken down because their listing could simply mislead people and such website have literally no use anyway since it's manipiulated basically a rigged website. Maybe if there's a proof to this you can make a topic just to expose their shitty website so that people could know that this website is just a measly money grabber.For rating websites, money is the most important. If they prioritize their rating reputation, I think they will stay alive from advertising because the cryptocurrency community continues to grow. But they prefer shortcuts so that many people doubt their review so that many new projects that are actually good cannot reach the sales target
Those website are literally made effortless and just copying each other even there are so many similar website that shove list of ICO into our vision with literally the same database.
Gladly, this ico bench don't make headlines for me anymore in terms of investment research choices since I found out that they failed a good team because the team refused to part with some money which they consider too high for rating. I am a sure it's same for all rating sites including ICOdrops, your money buys the ratings
Waw! this is quite some handy information, i never new the situation is this bad, i mean i know that most of the ratings in this sites are mostly influence but never new they could go this length to deny a project the opportunity of a good and honest rating, i think it is best people understand this and make their own decision when they want to invest, ico ratings site information should be properly checked before investment.

The ICO bench way back 2017 is very popular in terms of their review and the details of those new projects as well as their white paper, road maps and lastly the possible value of their tokens. In fact, I definitely trusted the ICO bench apps looking for more updates on those highly potential projects and I'm so lucky on that time since the project that I choose was successful.
Nowadays, as those scammers become rampant in the world of crypto currency the ICO bench that I appreciated before become untrusted and become so negative feedback from everyone else here, in which those user doesn't trusted anymore the ICO Bench.
I don't really look as icobench or any other related ico rating sites for anything because they have posed to be more or less useless and high rate of manipulation. I do my research on a project myself without referring yo any of those sites
I agree if we do not rely on analysis on website ratings. Maybe we can make it as a second opinion but the most important thing is the research that we do ourselves. The team developer is the key is the key to the success of a project and in my opinion doing research on the team is important to do

I am no longer believe websites that give ratings like icobench, I already know that rating on icobench should pay but if there are projects that are really good why should the rating be made bad. If only they could do fair, which good projects need to be highlighted (free promotions) and paid promotions for projects that need a reputation. maybe icobench's reputation won't be as bad as it is today. And unfortunately, their business is not far from money, money means rating.
from now on leave all websites that give fake ratings. better, do your own research.

ICO/IEOS our pretty much dead anyway .Their was money in 2017 .Now it just a front for money laundering no legit investors our retail investors left in the market .All the numbers are fake of what projects raise now
Compared to the year 2017, ICO and IEOs are actually not over. Only the fraud ICOs are over.
There are many reasons for this, but I think the AML and IEO process provides this opportunity.
Currently the complicated process of partnering with popular exchange for IEO is indirectly contributes to the elimination of fraud ICO and decreasing their motivation because most of people nowaday prefer IEO anyway. But, there are also some legit ICO aswell, can't generalize something like that.

The reason of such ico directories website existence is to provide reliable information that didnt mislead people so that people could analyze it by themselves.
If such practice is allowed and no one bats an eye it's as good as having nothing because with nothing atleast you wont be misled.

scam projects that you need to consider before picking the right project to invest your money. Same with how the OP stated, it's always
best to rely with your own research and not to base your decision with others opinions especially those paid site who gives ratings they
are bias since they are receiving money from developers who wanted to be on top.

Yes you are right, this is one of the big disadvantages of icobench which has to also do with some other ico rating websites. The so called rating professionals are manipulative this means no one can be really trusted, even the so called professionals
Professionalism and reliability are simply not synonymous of one another.
You can have the most professional looking site with the best staff or whatnot, but if your business model was based off giving biased reviews and taking a fee for doing so from the get go, then there is really no positives from being professional alone.
ICObench is one of the better ones, there are other more notorious ones out there.
