Just curious if you guys read the whitepapers of the projects you want to invest in at some point?

I'm a fan (hence my site), but I always wonder what kind of research people do on coins before throwing money at it.

This is a nice idea mate! I also suggest that you can summarize all the technicals in a certain whitepaper as well as if you can have like a verdict if a certain whitepaper is a lousy one or can hit a home run.

That would be awesome, but I'm busy enough as it is with adding & updating whitepapers

. Pretty difficult as well since you have to be really tech savvy to get to the core of the tech and make a solid assessment of how they're going to solve a problem...I think other people will be better in that Grin

. Definitely love the suggestion though, would've been a good addition to the site.

Any serious investor would find it a sound idea to run through a project's whitepaper. Though even a seemingly well constructed one can end up just that. It should be a part of any investor's reseach but not solely depending on it.

The real investors actually go to read these whitepapers to find out that in which type of project they are investing but there are a lot of people who do not know to read these whitepaper they only depends on the signals from their leaders to invest in these they often face loses.

for the few coins i've invested in---definitely. you need to study the fundamentals before investing, and reading shitty whitepapers is one of the easiest ways to quickly pass on bad projects.

but when it comes to trading, i'm looking for bullish chart patterns + liquidity + hype. and really nothing else. for me, altcoins are mostly just for short term speculation.

I look through the same facts, m8. But, i think the realm of ICO is dead now.

Although read the whitepaper is one of the important things to do before investing to find out more about the project, but I never read it because it was too long. Even so it doesn't mean I don't care or don't want to know it. Because there are many bounty participants who make reviews about ICO projects, so I prefer to read or watching from their review because it is shorter, denser, and clearer.

If you are an intelligent investor. Read WP is your obligation. Because only WP can give you all important information about the future of the project and the plan of their development.

I will not go looking for projects that read all their whitepaper. I have a team that can search for ICO projects that are running in the background and there are many big investors growing.
I just read the whitepaper of those potential projects, besides I don't spend too much time reading it all. Grin

if we dont ready any whitepaper from any projects we could use analisys from ico site review.their team riviewed this projects by analyze their whitepapers and find positive and negative value from it.

Reading whitepaper is one of the crucial things before investing, it can gives you a lot of information, and it also can give a detail information about the feature the raodmap and the developers team, almost all of the important things about the project is written on the whitepaper, investing without reading whitepaper is like gambling

I always read whitepaper before deciding to join a project whether for doing a bounty or investing there. At least, by reading the whitepaper, we can have a little description if it is a trusted project or potential for a scam. We can study the project ideas, plans, strategies, products, and team members information through reading whitepaper.

Of course we need to read a white paper of a project what we want to invest so we know what if this project have potential in the future to be successful. And its important that we read the white paper because we need the idea of project that they can contribute to crypto.

Yes, investors should read the whitepaper of a certain project to get the feel if the project has the potential to make it big or being a fraudulent one.
Also, aside from investors, a bounty hunter should at least browse the whitepaper before joining the program.
In that way, he will know if the project is really authentic and has the capability to deliver their objectives.
With that, he will know for sure that he will be paid afterwards and get the money that was promised to them.

I always prefer to read the whitepaper and then research more than 10 days before selecting that project to invest money! Though I don't read the whole papers from the whitepaper, but I tried to look through the team, their previous experience, roadmap, the motto of the project, roadmap and other things! I visited your website and I want to welcome you for this step, this is very unique and I hope you will list only good project's whitepaper on your website. Good Luck.

The whitepaper is just one of the details that have to be properly scrutinized before considering investing in a project. It covers the entire project, targets, products, partnership, team, road map and more.
Also.make extra research on the information shared to ensure it's credence.

Reading a whitepaper I must confess is actually boring,considering how long they usually are, I do not read all the whitepapers of projects I've both invested or advertised for
I simply tend to study whitepapers of promising projects and the ones I envisage I'll be tempted to hodl for a very long period
The whitepaper gives you an idea,a focal point of what the team actually has up their sleeves,its best to take out time to study it, and if anything isn't so clear or is obscure to you,then you can forward your concern to the team,if they have issues answering you, it's most probably a shitty or scam project

As a investor is better for me if the ICO have whitepaper because I read it to create prediction and I will decided if Im going to invest or not. As investor we need every single information or full details must be post by the team or in every project so that we can know if the project is potential.

Its a must, and I only read white paper of thsoe project that catches my attention.
Frankly most of the time I just paraphrase it and goes directly into important details. Indeed, a white paper is an important part of a project by detailing how the team develops it and how the project will do.

A lot of people in this space do take out quality time to read whitepapers to at least understanding what they're putting their money into. Unfortunately, this in itself doesn't imply it's a prerequisite for investing in a great project. This is because whitepapers are fast becoming nicely written fancy documents with no real intent of achieving

Well, most people would say that it's not that important to read, especially if you are only a bounty hunter, where after one month or so, success or failure, you can just leave and then find another one. However, that's not the case for other people who doesn't just join in the bounties, but for those who are investing in them, and actually use their money or assets, I think, reading about the white paper is one of the least you can do in order to check if the project really has a potential to grow. At least, even if the project fails, you can't regret that you didn't even do some prep work.

Everyone who are all looking for contributing into an ICO must go for reading whitepaper. It must be a basic step toward analyzing a project. But, now a days devs hire people to write attractive content for their whitepapers rather than presenting what is they are actually going to incorporate in their project. I mean to say all whitepapers are not true representation of an upcoming project.

This is the prime reason why all the ICOs and projects are releasing whitepaper. We must make use of it for taking appropriate decisions. But, whitepaper alone will not be enough for making investment decisions. It should be a part our researching factors to make a conclusion about a project.
