The most important thing is to be able to extract the main essence from the white paper of the project. Pay more attention to the technical aspects described in this document, since if everything is in order there, then ICO will most likely be successful.

Have really been thinking this for a quite a while now, those whitepaper of any projects really tells us what the project all about. Are they transparent enough to have every project goals in the whitepaper. A lots of projects are out there with nice whitepaper but they eventually failed.  How come, what causes the failure?

Literally project fails when they pay some firm to write up juicy whitepaper to entice and gather volumes for ico
Only to elope and run off with made Etherum or bitcoin  after token sale had ended and exchange listing

It’s not about the whitepaper, there are alot of things  to be figured out about a project

In the world of crypto-currencies, you can not trust anyone or anything. Including white paper, which is constantly changing something. Very often many projects copy each other's white papers and do not follow the described plan, which is contained there. This is not credible.

Of course not, it's just a way for you to understand the project, so it's the platform for you to ask the project team, self-verify whether it is future or feasible in the future. Many of the projects are just a cake picture, and you know what the future of the cake picture is like

White paper can't be a transparent document. White paper is a presentation document that should sell, not explain, here is its purpose. White paper can't be a single tool for good selling, an integrated approach is needed.

White paper is just a beautiful text. If you really look at things you can understand that this will not protect our investments. White paper is used only for beautiful words about the project.

the whitepaper is part of it and its very function is to convince investors to join in it. are indeed not entirely whitepaper becomes the main reference point but at least many of the factors that made him important whitepaper. but there are certainly other things to watch out for to analyze such as seen in the team member who is running behind it.

What would be the top three-five things you look at?

Whitepaper? Team? Advisors? MVP? Marketing?

Because of many project we can't say if the whitepaper is just a copy, commonly they have more than 10pages, we all know it would take time so we can't read it fully, unless you will do some service or promotion for them so you should read the whitepaper for better understanding.

I don'y really believe but whitepaper show what the project is, we can also get information anywhere on their social sites. we can choose whether to believe  it or not.

The white paper is only a reference, and it can be used to find out whether the team's thinking structure is complete and reasonable, and how feasible it is from real use, including the explanation of the principle. If these are reasonable, then the project will be easy to implement.

Unfortunately, whitepaper doesn't guarantee that ICO project is legit. When reading the white paper it is more important to pay attention to the state of the product, what is the status on the product development. Is it in the infancy of it’s development, are there signs of functioning product already in the market? Do not expect to discover a fully, well developed product at once.Understanding what is out in the market and spotting the service/product development over time will be hugely beneficial to identify future use cases and quality products

If they are ICO developers really have a goal to make the ICO a success not only after the ICO is finished should they really be a whitepaper. Which I know, many token projects are only successful after ICO is complete but after its token declines its price or even dead. So I have a conclusion if the tokens can not fight in the market then they just make a scam project.

The whitepaper is there to give an overview of what the project is about, nowhere does it say that all information in it is true (most of the time it is included in the disclaimer). Hence, I don't believe in it fully. In retrospect, some whitepaper looks professional and credible but in fact it is a scam.

The whitepaper is the most important document that you should read before making any investments to make sure that the project is legit and that there is a use case and need for that particular coin or token.

Of course not, some or most of the whitepapers are just being copy pasted in others legitimate work. The whitepaper is the main concept of a certain project it shows here how the project will implement, how the project works, etc. all the information can be found here but it doesn't mean that it can become true since it's just a piece of documents with full of words so it's really like a gambling when choosing an ICO since you don't know whether that project will be stay as word or become true.

Whitepaper are useful to gain an understanding about what the project is preposing to do. They will not however give you the ability to determine if the project is viable or if the people behind are competent and honest enough to bring it to completion. I treat them as a marketing document designed to get me to invest and treat everything in them with a degree of scepticism until I can confirm that information from a reliable third party source. Always do your own due diligence before investing.

All I know is that I know nothing.
witepaper of different projects to me is more like reading the abstract idea of what the developer had in mind. it doesn't necessarily mean they have achieved what they are introducing in their whitepaper. it just means they tried or at lest pretended to try to achieve it.

sometimes you end up seeing a cool project like Byteball and sometimes you end up seeing a lot of shitty ICOs with well written papers!

some time ago i would have read the whitepapers and cared about what they have written in it but last year when i started seeing these developers looking for "paper writers" i realized most of them don't even write their own whitepaper for their own project!!!
they pay someone else to write it for them and make it look good. most of them include hyped up subjects like "scaling" in their paper to just get a better pump.

This is the summarily of it all. They include hyped subjects like scaling they know the space needs at this time just to wow people who care to read the whitepapers, but they never have any concrete plans to execute it. The crypto world is awash with so many of these kind of projects and it's so unfortunate.

Everyone wants to explain their project ideally. I never fully believe Whitepapers because they sell imaginations.
When examining the project, we must examine many different influences together. Social media, team and so on...

The Standard Protocol - Solving Inflation
Whitepaper plan are just plan if they are not been executed as it should. For anything to happen to any project in terms of development, there must be believers in such project. If enough people believe in the ideas of project, such project will have human resource and energy to push forward to development!
