For me I don't fully trust ICO ratings. The are all superficial since some can easily manipulate it. We can't guarantee its success through it. Many ICO isn't listed to ICO bench but still made their sales to be sold out.

the first thing I check before investing is icobench. it is useful for me and investors. iCoBench score is high but negative results can occur
Is just normal and there is no 100%sure that all coming results from ICObench  really successful. Their ratings is only shows the thoughts of the community but not in the real event.  It could be possible to change once ICO finish and finally launched in the public.

Well I won't believe on any platform that is paid to rate or review an ico project. Mostly this rating you see on icobench are paid for.
I dont think they collect money to list or rate ICOs.

Naturally, in some moments it is possible to rely on Iso bench and trust them. But we must understand how I think that some projects have paid well for them in order to have their rating higher. This is understandable, so it is better to rely only on yourself and trust only yourself and your intuition

We are not 100% confident in ICObench. ICObench only tells you or recommends for you if you want to invest in ICO, of course ICO bench has made a list of which projects are running and who want to run. All of that depends on your individual.

I think they are not 100% independent assessment institutions, because they also advertise projects that are their sponsors, I do not fully believe in icobench but it is enough to help provide information

In my own opinion I don't really trust ICObench rating at all because most of the rating on their site by their experts are been incentive, there are some proves going rounds of how some of their experts collect money to give a good review about a project.

Have you ever noticed that some ICOs refer on their score on ICObench during crowdsales. There are some experts that assess the ICO by follow criteria: Team, Vision and Product.

How useful is this score? Should we take it into consideration when performing a research on the ICO?

Team is the most important criteria. Nowadays there are so much advanced ICO scams, that make their websites and whitepapers look so realistic and only by people who develop the project you can really tell what they're up to. It commands confidence when there's a way to contact team members (to make sure that those are not just set up photos). If those people are into technology and seem to perform some activity during years that's a good sign, or, the better situation is when team members have participated in successful projects in past. I don't know what about vision and product though, sometimes that's the thing that attracts people to scams. If you're choosing between definitely reliable ICOs product still doesn't look like a good criteria, there can be from 10 to 20 different ICOs offering nearly the same thing, but only one of them will be successful, so it's 100% on team.

I saw at ICObench some scam  projects with good ratings, after that I stop to believe on 100%, but for sure there I can find many useful information!

In my opinion, most of the ICO rating services probably take money from the ICOs they rate. Can't say for ICObench, but they do way too many ratings, they cannot have the manpower to actually do research. They copy and paste stuff and give even crap high ratings.

If you want great ICO research, go to hacked.com or picolo (now Astronaut). Do a pull request on Neufund's transparency monitor to get an automatically generated audit of the contract. You can go a little further into discord or telegram to get to know the community if you are really interested in investing fiat in an ICO

Generally useless, I think that the team pays money for good rating. But this is only my point of view.

Take any listing site with much precaution, you never know what interests are hidden. Said that, it is a quite interesting site and normally provides at least a first filter.

This website is a good assistant for you, but all decisions about future investment you should make by yourself without any influence

We should believe them but to some extent..  As we can't believe everything we see on facebook or in GSM arena..  Most times its only half truth and the rest will just be nonsense..  So it's better to read their views and do your own findings too..  To have have view of your own

The ICO  bench rating worth something the investors should believe in, because they usually rate ICOs base on the project outstanding concept, contract, support and social traffic the ICO project gain so far before it pre-sale.

I think that it is not good to trust ICObench or other rating off ICO. Project menlo.one also promise make research and report about good and scam project, but it is better to make your own research.
Promising this does not mean doing. More than this, the creators of this project are announcing themselves as assistants in the conduct of the ICO. Let's see what happens.

I don't take into consideration any ICO ratings. Ever. you know, as well as any other opinion in the world (except the Pope's, but who knows Huh Grin Grin Grin) can be bought. So I don't trust either ratings or influencers.
