Topic: What are the 3 thing you look for in an ICO? - page 13. (Read 6348 times)
First, the quality of the project and if it is relevant for the blockchain, then the team and the expertise of the members, finally the amount of money they request to launch the project.
Developers history
It has potential or not ?
Way of marketing the ICO (What methods does the team use to market their ICO ? )

I think the most important thing from a ICO is the Team because most participants will definitely see who the Team is dealing with a project and they will invest to that project if the team are trusted
As the question reads. For me:
- The concept/vision - is it innovative? does it solve a real world problem? is the problem it solves something I am interested in?
- The team - Size and experience.
- How the coin relates to the concept. Is the coin a key part of the platform? Are other payment methods available to users, etc.

Mostly, I agree with your post but I have another opinion. First, how they built communication with members/ users, are they friendly and always giving clear answer not only promises?. Second, will they keep their promise ( rules ) to participant?. As long the give what members/users as friendly expert team, I'll join the ICO. For me communicate is very important thing and will make members comfortable. Have a nice day.
Also, I check their progress before they KO the ICO. I personally don't invest in ICOs which are big marketing bubbles and no work done. I personally don't like lazy teams which are waiting for money before spending energy on their idea.
Usually I go after ICOs which have a working prototype and they are proudly showing it off and are open to discuss it in their Slack / Reddit.
Monetha is an example of massive marketing, tons of Videos and posts, hundreds of social media pumping, a lot of theorising and handshaking and no presentable work done.

A working product, a niche market, and a good way to promote that product. The last two is something I see often, but the most important thing is almost always missing, which is a working product.
Go fund yourself assholes.

I sadly must agree on that! Lately I'm checking a lot of ico's cuz my company plans to run a icon for our start up project ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2129844.new#new) until end of this year. It is somehow depressing what nonsense gets funded. Its even more depressing that all kind of warnings just getting plain ignored.... marketing/pr/ and some well known promoters rule the show....
My 3 points:
1. The IDEA
2. The amount of Investment needed to realize the project
3. All the rest can be bought with money or can be faked and has not much value.... white paper, team, so on. You will need common sense when thinking about an investment. Stick to the basics.
Nothing.
ICO's at the moment unregulated has they are everyone can put up Vaporcoin and cash out slowly and discreetly.
People should stop opening their wallets and expecting huge returns for nothing. Do your research on a product and wait to see if its a valid product with a valid team behind it. The reasons for the creation of a given coin and most important the reasons for holding an ICO.
If a product is solid what you mostly need are trustworthy investors and a good team backing you, ICOs should be regulated imo and a last resort to give projects their kickstart.
You people still don't get it but once governments and agencies start taking an interest in the people behind ICOs things are bound to get funky.

You are fucking retarded idiots.
These are not "startups" nor are they companies.. nor are you investors.
ICO's are scammy .. every single one of them period .
You are participating in new age digital ponzi / pyramid schemes for profit.
You are NOT "investors".. but scammy idiots.

Firstly I look for the product - blockchain usage and an idea of the project (dose it have a potential) . Secondly, of course, the whitepaper. And last but not least is the team.
You don't remember the developers are trying to raise the money caused by that will be used to develop the product and i think all of the project just try to offer the pre-alpha in my opinion. there is no one that already offered the real product for us before the crowdsale. 
alway check profile team first... do they have exp, finance skill....
then check their whitepaper to see a picture about project
then wait till ICO open and see people have interesting project or not

The first three things I look for in an ICO are, the whitepaper and it's project because it is really important if the project they are creating can be applicable and investors would think they could make money out of this. Second would be the team, if they have experience and how well they are capable to make the project work and lastly would be the budget for the whole project because it would really matter especially for the investors and the participants of the projects.

First of all i look investors thinks. Second, team.
Third, whitepaper and potential of project.
Third, whitepaper and potential of project.
For me, the most important aspect is the whitepaper and how the technology will solve a problem.
Second is the team and that they have experience.
The third is for me the potential of the project.
However, there are occasions when it makes sense to invest even when the team is not experienced or unknown but the rest is great.
Also, I am also analyzing who else is investing. If good advisors with industry knowledge are on board, it is a huge plus point....

I think the team is the most important, a experienced team can bring out creative ideas and useful products and a powerful advisors can make good market performance. That is enough.
The first one is the whitepaper, you have to read whole white paper before invest your money to these projects. Because most of them just scammer with nonsense whitepaper which looks promising but fail at the end.
Team and Escrow should consider before invest, if famous team involved to their project (like CEO of Ethereum, Dash) and using ESCROW !! . Your funds probably safe even the scammer is out, your funds still safe on escrow and Coin Supply.

For me it's, something new, innovative, disruptive.
