Hello everyone,

As we are rapidly gaining popularity, we thought it was important to listen to the requests telling us that we should be officially presented on the BitcoinTalk forum.
Yet again, if you are using Twitter and/or Facebook don’t hesitate to start following us.

ICObench

If you haven't heard about us yet, ICObench is an ICO rating and listing platform that is supported by a big number of well-known experts in the world of crypto and beyond. Our experts come from different backgrounds: media, legal, marketing, banking, finance, trading, and investments. Being in close cooperation with the experts, our bot Benchy constantly keep monitoring ICOs and rating them.

In addition, our crypto-lawyers are giving free short legal reviews for the ICOs listed on ICObench.

On ICObench the ICOs are sorted by categories presenting various industries and we let you learn more about the ICO and its funding, whitepaper, finance, team, and milestones. Such information set is now considered a standard and a required practice for any ICO to be considered for having a good rating.

Some Q&A

What is a rating?
A rating is a result of analytical assessment executed by our bot Benchy and the experts. It is not an investment advice and is meant to be used for your informational purposes only. Rating is based on 5 points scale, ranging from 1 to 5 - where 1 is the lowest and 5 is the highest rating. The ICObench's rating system is different to that of other ICO rating platforms, as it is:

calculated using the combination of objective ICO profile analysis and subjective experts' ratings;
dynamic and updated at least once a day.

Read more about ICObench's rating methodology.

How is the ICObench rating determined?
We follow a special rating methodology. Rating is based on a combination of:

ICO profile rating based on our own algorithm that uses more than 20 different criteria. Each ICO can earn up to 40 points;
Ratings of the team, the vision, and the product provided by the independent experts following our methodology suggestions.

How can an ICO improve its rating?
Although you cannot influence the experts' rating in any way, you can improve your ICO profile rating by improving your ICO Analyzer score:

Open your ICO Analyzer report;
Prepare the information that is missing;
Send us the relevant data via the contact form and our editors will update your profile with the new data or come back to you for some clarifications;
If you didn't get a good score for the social media and marketing part and all social media links are available on your ICO profile on ICObench, we suggest that you are more active and keep in touch with your potential investors on your social media accounts.

What is the ICO Analyzer?
The ICO Analyzer is a free tool of objective report into an ICO profile. It was developed to allow ICO teams to learn more about the potential improvements to bring into their ICO profile on ICObench. The ICO profile rating given by Benchy is based on the report provided by the ICO Analyzer.
The ICO Analyzer provides a report based on availability of data important for investors but not on the quality of the provided data.

How can I update my ICO profile?
At the moment, only ICObench editors can update an ICO profile. Please inform us about the changes:

Go to our website's Contact section;
Fill in with accurate data and submit the form;
We encourage you to provide as many links and information as possible as this will allow our editors to update your ICO profile faster;
Wait for the editors to update your published ICO and write back to you. Note: We may request some clarifications or more details.

Can I somehow share my rating on my website?
Of course, you can use our free widget to share your rating on the forums, blogs or your website. Please keep in mind that the image automatically updates the number according to your current rating.

How can we publish our ICO agency on your list of agencies?
You can reach us through the contact form and tell us more about your agency. We will come back to you after we add your agency to the list.

How to report a scam ICO?
We encourage you to report any type of threats - hacking, fraud, scams, attacks, etc. - of the ICOs published on the ICObench. Each ICO profile has a "Report" button that will take you to the contact form. Please provide as much of available information as possible - you can also provide us links to the discussions on forums or channels, such as Bitcointalk or Reddit.
We will take the next actions:

If there are only suspicions and the accusations are not clear, we will post a notification with a link to a Reddit or Bitcointalk thread where the discussion is going on. This will allow the visitors and the potential investors to read it and make up their own mind;
If there is an evidence of a team member (or members) being made-up or that the content in the whitepaper, on the website or in the social media was forged or stolen, we will take the action immediately and disable the ICO profile.

Please note that the ICO profile rating and the ICO Analyzer report do not indicate whether an ICO is a scam or not. The automated evaluation doesn't have the mechanisms which could detect frauds or false information.
