I'm a crypto purist. I like fair coins without any self-funding mean (which means, in practice, a way for the creators to enrich themselves easily). So, I look mineable coins without any premine, developer fees, founders rewards, or any other of that bullshit. I also don't buy anything from ICOs.
It seems to me that today the game market company is irrelevant when security tokens have already appeared, whose projects can guarantee a return of funds for investors if necessary.

Before making investment on ICO's of course the most important is the genuine team behind and very professional when it comes running a project especially if it's new wherein always make sure first who are involved behind on it and obtain specific information always to avoid fake project . so that also no more worries after putting a investment on it.
Yes genuine and professional team is very important for every projects. Cause if any projects have a good hard working team then it will get success. Also most of investors like to invest on those projects who have a professional team members.Before making investment on ICO's of course the most important is the genuine team behind and very professional when it comes running a project especially if it's new wherein always make sure first who are involved behind on it and obtain specific information always to avoid fake project . so that also no more worries after putting a investment on it.

Begin with the question would i use it and how much. If the interest is there you can dig deeper in the team and roadmap etc.
I would weed out allot of projects.

Forget about investing in ICOs, instead of investing in new projects it would be better if you invest in some high potential altcoins. The price of most altcoins are cheap now.
I agree with your opinion. In fact, investing in new coins has the opportunity to earn more profits and most of the coins that are on the market are having a very cheap price and are very suitable for investment right now. In my opinion, investing in ICO always faces a lot of risks and not everyone is lucky enough to earn good profits from these projects.
If it's non ICO coins you're talking about, I personally go for product and services and it has worked for me very effectively
I really don’t get the first part of what you mean by Non ICO coin, is there any project that really didn’t go through ICO? Even the popular Bitcoin went through ICO, Binance the greatest exchange went through ICO but I can’t seems to picture any project that didn’t go through ICO and if there are any, then it must be few.But that is not what is important, the most important thing to any project whether an ICO project or a Non ICO project is really the product and services they render, each developers has to make sure that whatever project it is they are building on, the product should be able to attract users and not just investors. If project attracts users, they have the tendency of staying with the project more than investors that are just there for the profit purpose.
I usually look for the token utility in the long term and the capacity of the team to achieve that good luck in your future investment decision and have a nice day

It will help when looking for ICO to invest in, but there is no assurance still if the team will pay you back. Most of the time the team publish everything that makes their image good to hear for the investors. ICO now are just a game of luck for the investors. Even they put a good platform,in the end the risk is still high.
I picked on one point from this forum recently where someone said, any team member should be able to do a video conference call with us at a particular time, showing their face and introducing their project to us, from there, it will eliminate all these false portfolio they put in their whitepaper, right now, they need to also start doing KYC too, while reverse should not be the case.
If ICO does not quickly do something to gain its relevance back, they might as well lose their relevance completely to IEO and STO.
As the title says.
I have been interested in cryptocurrency for a long time, but only invested in a few coins like Dogecoin, Bitcoin and Litecoin.
But what do you look for when you search for new projects to invest in?
Algorithms?
Products/Services?
Utilities?
Tell me what you do, I really want to see how others pick projects to support and invest in.

I always invest in Products and Services, because it is when clients get more quickly interested, some algorithms refers only to development, and most people do not understand, the part of utilities is also important, although I think many bounty hunters have a clinical eye to enter into this type of projects, however my biggest investments I take for bitcoin, eth and Monero, because they offer me greater security and confidence, they have a high market capitalization and present incredible communities.
Nowadays to support a project what I notice is that Exchange is going to be listed, because if it is in Level 1 Exchanges I would see it as a very serious and reliable project.

I will invest in a new project if it is a project with a large community and available investment funds. That's what I need at a new project in the crypto market.I have been interested in cryptocurrency for a long time, but only invested in a few coins like Dogecoin, Bitcoin and Litecoin.

I will all print all the money I have on some such projects and I will soon get rich or I will soon be poor. The risk is quite high for my investment, you can refer to it.

What about bitcoins ? you forget that bitcoin is the base of all cryptos , whatever happens to bitcoin , this causes a backfire to other coins . ico on the hand is a good investment compare to cryptos because ico are more cheaper due to their bonuses especially if you are an early bird investor . they are cheap but that does not mean that the profit that you will be earning is also cheap . ico can pump 10 or more times as long as you are lucky to join a good and active projects .
Genuinty is the major reason I checked on any coins or projects I have in mind to invest in. I have see some powerful and good write-up whitepaper and outstanding roadmap but at the end those projects end up as a scam or fake project.

There are lots of factor in choosing a project or potential coins.
On what you have mentioned those are prerequisite of the good project. Likr they should have a working product or mvp. Stay away from projects that are mainly focus on raising funds anf more focus on the sales. Tendency it could be a scam project. You can notice actually if the project is good, there are lots of development progress and more talks about the product itself.
Most importantly the team. As an investors, its youre job to check if the team is real one, cause there are lots of fake accounts that has been used in crypto.
I look for the goal of the project especially when it is feasible, you must also not forget about checking the backgrounds of the team if they are successful with their profession. Quality team means quality project so you must check every single one of the team members of the project to see if they can do what they are presenting.
Need to check every detail in the proposed project. And if there is at least one thing that seems suspicious to you, then this is already a serious reason to start doubting the integrity of the project.I know, this technology calls for anonymity but when it comes to extracting fund from others in a genuine way, nothing to be anonymous about, any project that cannot make his or her team accessible by giving a full detail about them, like place of work, direct contact number and many more should not be giving a chance to have any part of our money, they should be more kin about persuading people by all means and not be after anonymous systems alone.
Investing in an ICO project that must be considered is a real product and supported by a real Team. So that this project, I think has the opportunity to succeed more. But if you are in doubt, you can invest in established coins. Like the top 10 coincident market coins.
