lol, so many ICOs, same style, ... easy money now with ICO and some nice graphics, lol

We probably have a different way of thinking when it comes to ICOs. I started looking through Krushang's history and contributions he's made on projects. That's always my first step when evaluating ICOs. My next step is to ask myself if it offers something different. Is this another Lisk clone? Does it strengthen some part of a different ecosystem? Next, anything that isn't understood by me to even consider an ICO, see previous questions I had in this thread, I post them immediately. The quality of the answers helps me decide how much time I'll spend investigating. I skimmed the white paper once, after the last step I mentioned, it gave me enough to read through the white paper in detail. I still have a lot of questions, but I'm starting to see the potential.

Graphics are fun I guess, not really my starting point. Please hit with some tough questions, it helps all of us!

if you look at these "successful" ICOs, all sell with nice graphics and some up-in-the-air "whitepaper"s, the ideas are copied around, often abstract and no concrete plans for implementation and new insights. It's all about hype. I've seen this for several years in this space, look at these "hot" coins 2-3 years ago, how many still left? All hot that time because they have nice graphics attracting those who chase the mode.

I can't speak about how others invest, that might be. I had specific reasons to invest heavy in Lisk and Waves based on the team and what they were trying to accomplish. I like what I'm reading about this one so far, I know I'll have more questions in the coming days. I don't worry too much about others.

this is wild west now, scams and chances are mixed. but given a few recent ICOs went crazy, it is expected many will get on the train trying to get something quick and easy....
