All questions answer is no. We can't trust them blindly.
Mostly once you search on internet you will find ICO bench, listico, ICO bazaar, ICO time line, coinist, ICO hotlist and many more.
If they listing an ICO it means ICO is legit? Never. It can't legit only depend on they are listed.
You can see all their website they have warning or disclaimer that they are not provide investment advice. So what does mean that they are listed. Nothing.
They just get paid form ICO project and simply listed on their website.
Their rating depend on how much they are paid. They have listing package.
I am not against them. I just want to bring reality and true value about them. Those listed or review free at least we can trust a little bit their website. Because they didn't get paid for review.
My suggestion that when you join ICO you can search their site but don't depend on their review. Research yourself about legit or not. Because you are going to invest there.
Yep,heard the same from people who were bringing their own ICO project to life...
Want a good review? Pay them 5-10 BTC
Want fake twitter / telegram traffic for a week? Pay them 4 BTC
Want fake this and fake that? Just pay, seems legit...
Best way I can think of, is actually google and deeply research every member of the ICO you're looking into. And even that MAY not be 100% bulletproof.
ON the other hand, there are certifications and so on, that can be backtracked to official government institutions, that back such projects up... so that's good I guess.
