Topic: So many new ICO, how to check if it's scam? - page 34. (Read 14858 times)
Look at all ICO's like at shit. It works. First you need to look at their site and you can find information. The more information, the less the probability of a scam
First of all, the project sponsor is very important, and then whether the project can continue to develop, and finally the publicity of the project is good or bad.
obviously you can see from a few things. I think the team and thoughts are imperative. many have smart thoughts yet are not corresponding to their procedure, that is one sign of a scam.
9/10 ICO's are scams.
There is nothing to check if a coin is a scam or not, the best you can do is do some research

I propose to develop a standard (list of rules) that guarantees absolute protection of investor's funds.
BPI, Blood Pact ICO standard
The best thing to know if an ICO is a scam is to make a research. You need to see all the information on that ICO so that you will know if that is a trusted ICO and not a scam.
Yeah ICO listing and most of marketing stuff can be bought so it may end up as well invested scam.
First step to see available or not ICO at website:
http://icorating.com/
And next just learn more about project, about what people say, about developers.

There are many listing websites, ICORating is not the only one.
It's difficult to say, but before choosing an ICO, people should consider various aspects:
- The managing team (Investigate in internet if they trustworthy and competent)
- The vision and goals
- The allocation of funds they offer.
- Website and whitepaper
So doing it, there is no way to be 100% certain.

Start with the assumption it is a scam and then move through the stages to make yourself believe it is not.
Team members with relevant blockchain AND sector experience ?
Do you like / believe the whitepaper ?
Backed by known entities or people - i.e. not celebrities and not known crypto people, but relevant real world and business people.
Avoid the hyped projects.
Check that the structure is not based on team money extraction - i.e. for example ICOs where tokens are issued to the team without considering the amount raised (such as Powerledger).
The best at the moment for all of the above is Prosume Energy.
Check the WP, team members with unbelievable knowledge, Ernst and Young on the advisory board as well as sovereign wealth fund advisor.

ICOs with a shady page, the team of nonprofessionals without profiles on social media channels, with not clear whitepaper.

I think this is the question which many people wanna receive the answer. Unfortunately, there is no correct answer for this question. You have to use your knowledge, your experience to confirm it is a scam or not.

ICO is now really a lot and the degree of risk when investing in it has grown very much. You can study the ICO program, its need and prospects, check the team in terms of its professionalism, check whether it has a license, whether its location is indicated, however, in the end, this does not save you from the risk of fraud. As elsewhere in investing in a particular type of business, the risk still remains.
if i we're you , you should do your own research in order for you to judge that certain ICO check their dev team and whitepaper read it carefully so you can know if is a scam or not then also check the ICO if it has a working product already this way you should know if that certain ICO is not a scam this also may use a good evidence for that ICO is not a scam
the best way to know if the ICOs is working properly is to research that certain coin reading their whitepaper , dev team and many more and also you can see if it has working product this can be a very good proof that the ICO is not a scam

To be honest if you like gambling then you like ICOs. I would put them on same league as sports gambling because simply you can do research to minimize the risk. You have to keep in mind that anyone can make a white paper, website and a team. That's why I could compare it to sports gambling. You don't know if the team can kept going or not but research can clear of some stuff about them.
every ICO has it own website and whitepaper, so read carefully if you want to invest in that project,moreover you must check their interaction to people, ask questions to advisors or develope team, if they unwilling to answer your questions, you should stop and quit that ICO. however many ICOs nowaday too hard to check if that project is scam or not, so it is a little risky to invest in.
Most of the ICO's are shit.
The best way to know that an ICO is legit, is seeing that the team already has a working product (for example, BitDice has a running casino for 3 years, and now they come with an ICO).
And, what Whipsplash says: the more info you can find beside their webpage, the less likely it is that is is a scam.
yes your right because other campaigns with new ico is scam so be sure to check it clearly so u wont get scammed by the fake campaigns The best way to know that an ICO is legit, is seeing that the team already has a working product (for example, BitDice has a running casino for 3 years, and now they come with an ICO).

There is no way to be 100% certain. Read whitepapers and check the team very carefully.
