Topic: What is involved in researching coins? (Read 425 times)
You should read a lot. Read the forum, threads contained in it, use the information on the internet or search for people who are in that long time and you will find out what you need.
Here are some things I research when looking at certain coins:
- Reading the whitepaper
- Checking if the team is actually legit, real people
- If their github repository is constantly being updated
- A decent community talking about that certain cryptocurrency (preferably in a Slack channel)
- If it's not a ripoff of a certain cryptocurrency
- If it has a decent and reasonable roadmap
- Marketcap and the hard limit on how much/how many of the certain coin can be produced
- How much and how frequent that cryptocurrency is being marketed/shilled on social media
I have many question about your post!!!
1. What is github repository?
2. How do you assess their roadmap?
3. What is hard limit?
there are quite many to choose from. Go to google and type things as "ICO dates", "ICO Calendar" etc.
you'll find a plethora of content to choose from. Keep in mind to always invest carefully, do your research before putting your money on the line

If you are researching for a particular coin then try to find some thread here in our forum in altcoin announcement so you can get some updates and news about the coin if that coin is still doing good and what are the feedbacks of the user of that coin and if the community of that is enough to support its coin itself.
When researching how do you start off? Which websites are the best to look at and what are you exactly looking for whilst researching?
I will read their whitepaper first then look at their team. It is possible that the team are with picture are fake too and then back to their whitepaper. Is it doable? Can they perform? Or is it an existing project but undervalued? Get their telegram, slack or any social media that connect the small community together. Check the altcoin on coinmarketcap.com if it is the existing ones. Is the volume big enough to create value? That is all I could think at the moment.

Well, the longer coin exists, its more reliable in general.Read. Read this forums, google it, read reddit about it, view videos about it on youtube.
