What criteria do you look for when you research a token/crypto? And what tools do you use to do your investigation? Please provide as much details, examples, walk throughs, tutorial links as possible.

Like if you want to know what percentage of a token is being held for a few VC's, developers, initial investors, etc.? Or how do you monitor inflows and outflows over a period of time?
There is no need for a link, my friend, all that is important is for you to know that there is a new listing by exchanges or presales. Of course, exchanges are popular, you can follow any of the top ones. As for the new listings, if you are conversant with online crypto handles and news outlets like coindesk.com, you may know, because they are not always coming out in the same way or format. And of course, the social media handles they use cannot be the same because it is not the same brains behind them in most cases, which makes it somewhat difficult to know. Just be active on crypto news and channels, you might probably get the gist somehow. Even the feeds of some exchanges are good suggestions here, they like to gossip a lot to our advantage.

After locating the project, let me warn you that you are on your own at this point as any presale project could be a potential scam or real project, and no one knows this at first. But when they list it newly on exchanges, then you are better off. You should now weigh the project itself (by then you would have known everything about the website and the social media handles), the community size they have, the current price, the demand and supply, the blockchain they list it, how many projects are already available on that blockchain and many more. All these should be good enough for you to make an informed decision.

You may also use coinmarketcap.com for some information, especially for the demand and supply (inflow and outflow you requested).

Your correct mate, most of those reviews can be bought or paid for by the developers of the coin, all in the name of capturing more investors into their coin. Hence, personal research is the best way to get a good token/altcoin for investment.even some shitcoins could have a very good and eye catching white paper with enticing words so believing entirely on white paper is not something I'll advise any person looking for the right altcoins to focus on. Though it's very important that you read the white paper to give clear insight why the developers made the coin and what are their purpose but that shouldn't be the only criteria to searching for a good altcoin to invest in.

Looking for assets for a good investment is a difficult step for those learning to invest. because there are so many assets, and there is so much movement in the market. For beginners, most of them will just follow the patterns that occur in the market. They don't even see the long-term plans for the projects they choose.
Surely you have experienced times like that when following market trends seems better than having difficulty finding assets to buy. Choose the one that is going down, it will go up later. Simple thoughts like that often appeared in the past when you were still a beginner.

I have stopped researching about any token or coin for some time now. They do not make any difference anymore in the current market what I do now is to find the narrative then I do check the trends and how much hype that narrative has in the present and the future. Depending on these criteria I would find coins and check their performance in price point and then plan on investing in one or two of them.
altcoin season preparations may be happening so it is important to see which altcoins can give us a big gain.
Narrative analysis is good enough to see the hype that will occur in the market, but you need fundamental and technical support to look at a project to be aligned and provide great benefits to us as investors, because the narrative is only calculated in outline, I think your decision to stop analyzing it is a decision that is less place in looking for altcoins that have a chance of increasing prices, you only need to add narrative analysis as a complement to your research tools to be much more correct when looking at a token or altcoin.

From my opinion, if the foundation is weak then the coin is definitely weak, looking at the source matters a lot and if a coin is not genuine you'll know from the community, I hardly believe in review cause most review are false I will rather observe carefully for awhile first like how far has this project gone. Check if the project is making any success or loss by calculating cause I believe every inform concerning a coin must not be hidden like the marketcap, price etc. Researching can be difficult but not all investors are ready to pass through same stress so they go easy and trusted coin.

Everyone has their own way of making research,I think the Best way to research a token/coin is:

_By Identifying  the token purpose
_Checking the maximum or current supply of the token
_And also by Checking what the media are saying about the token
_And also the market rank

This are some ways to research a token.

CMC and Coingeko are two prime tools for that but it is really hard to know about new project only by these 2 platform as there are 100 of token launches every day. So i usually follow some of the influencers to get information about new project. Then i go to those platform to do more research about it and if i think that is a good project i put it in my portfolio. When the time comes and a token gets listed in a exchange and price reaches my desired price, i purchase it and move that asset into my non custodial wallet.

When it comes to determining whether a coin or token is genuine, there are a few things you can do first research the project and team behind the coin. Next look at the community around the coin. You can check the developers to see if there are good developers and regular updates this can be a good indication of the validity of the coin. You can also check if the currency is listed on a reputable exchange. Established exchanges usually have strict listing requirements and do due diligence before adding a coin to their platform.

The market is designated to go against our plans in the system. There are different techniques to implement in the system, just don't stop earning because it's important to be on the winning ends, showing evidence of years of immense hardwork. We can be doing the usual findings, more like scratching the surface, we need to stack up this racks. We have different patterns of making crucial research in the system and I will not relent because we can continue making thoroughly findings regarding new projects in the market.

     First, look at his whitepaper to see what is there in the Coins or tokens that you are interested in, then look at his tokenomics to find out the total supply, price and so on, in this way at least you will be able to see and know the use case of token why you need to buy it.

     most people often use coingecko, or coinmarketcap, because of this you will even have an idea about the coins you know and many others will know about this matter as well, then you should also know its contract address so you can see its supply there.

hmm, I check if the team is dedicated to the project or not i mean if i see the team is working actively on the project Ecosystem and collaborating with other strong ecosystem projects so it gives me the indication that the project can perform well in the coming time well we know that not every project have all the qualities we all want somehow they contain some cons as well but in my opinion, if the project ecosystem has strong use case which means the pros can overcome its cons then in my personal point of view project can perform well.

I do not use any tools I use Coingecko and CoinMarkerCap kind of sources for doing project research and if I feel the project can perform well in the coming days I put some amount in it that I can bear i the form of loss and if luck stays my sides then it makes me profit. Investing in any project is the very picky part that should be done after good research so invest in any project accordingly and always do risk management which is the most important point to keep in mind. DYOR!\

Here is one of the thread : Step by step in " DOING YOUR OWN RESEARCH"  which explains what you are asking but in general there is no particular fixed criteria to find whether the project is scam or not, will it grow or not, etc. It is a combination of multiple factors such as the project's potential and the time of its launch, how much the team is willing to push the project to reach to build the community.

There are several things i want to look at, like tokenomics, distribution, vesting period and initial sale price, inflation rate and marketcap. List of red flags i will be looking for is too long to list, as i would probably forgot to list lots of them, and since it's based on years of experience. If the team is not anonymous, i will take a deep dive about every member, and make sure they have a place in that company, other than hanging around and some crappy marketing.

If marketcap is low enough and potential high. I might overlook other fundamentals. And i've made money with utter trash and projects that later rugged everyone. But the autist in me doesn't invest in anything where devs are obviously lying. They can be stupid and funny, and selling pointles meme tokens, and that's fine with me. It's just lying or incompetence that they are trying to hide by lying that gets to me and i open my mouthn and get banned from their chats for "fud"

looking at the richlist was once a very good way to look at whether the token could be good or not. I'm sure you can figure out how to check the smart contract on the explorer.

during the ICOs time, we usually check the team and its background. it was a good way to see whether they are scams by the way because some teams are faking their profiles.

The most important thing i look for in a project is its utility, what problem does it solve, for example, Bitcoin solves the problem of censorship in people's finances, it is a coin that is censorship free and it is also decentralized. If the coin or token has no utility, you should stay away from it, forget about the hype or its price at that very time, because it is only utility that can sustain a project for the long term.

Mind you that so many developers lie about what their project offers, take your time to ensure they are working on something unique and not just fake promises.

First of all we have to determine if the project is a scam or not.

This one requires extra observation because some may appear legit but they aren’t really. Look at the developers and pay attention to names or other details they present. Their goals is one thing I pay a lot of attention to. It has to be positive yet still realistic. If they are displaying too good to be true numbers, high chances that that is a scam.

With older projects, I look at marketcap and activity of the market. You wouldn’t want to invest in a deadcoin. Deadcoins can be confused for a coin that is still cheap and has a potential to grow. I then check what kind of promotion does the developers do and see if it has any potential to accumulate interest over time.

The first thing I check when assessing a project is its team, its developers. Are they real people? Have they received any negative reviews before? That's the most important aspect for me. Next is their partners. Are they reputable and well-established? Do they have sufficient resources to support the project? Just these two factors help me eliminate most scam projects from the list.

I don't stress myself any longer.

In the past I will go through coinmarketcap and start looking into the newly added projects, check their tokenomics and white paper, look into the fund the project have raised in other to survive in a possible bear market, but now it's different.

So far I look back into the past and I noticed that all projects that Binance invested into did amazingly well, so why not invest in projects that Binance is well invested into? So I use cryptorank.io to look into projects that Binance is presently invested into and do some few researches before picking my choices.

Herr are few projects that Binance Lab have invested on.

Aptos, Sui, Celestia, and other good new altcoins.

+ People's review on the token.
You will read many positive reviews and your mind will be affected. It's good if you read many negative reviews on a token and stay away from it but in a bull run, it is not common review you will see.

Quote
+ The team (especially their previous work)
I agree.

Quote
+ How realistic is the white paper, usecase.
White papers usually are full of promises and polished roadmap points which can be failed to achieve in future.

Quote
+ Which network does the token run on
Projects can move from one chain to another chain, to join a chain trend but it does not make a bad project becoming a good project.

Quote
+ How long is taking for the presale to end and it to launch.
It is related to their token unlock, tokenomics and selling pressure from their investors.
