Exactly
400+ pages must inspire confidence in project
Hahaha, no it does not.
That menas that there is a lot of people interested in this project because is a great idea but that doesn't guarantee success.
It means that there are genuine people interested in the discussion of the project + an incredible amount of shilling. Both don't say anything about the 'greatness' of the project.
I agree with the newbie volkonsky and at the moment, the value of the tokens are only speculative, and there isn't much greatness in the project other than the brilliant idea. Which still needs to be excecuted, for the project to become great.
But obviously there is a lot of interest in the project with 11321 backers and growing, with 55m tokens or 3+ days until the end of ICO.
This is insane amount of people. Crypto sure has come far from what it used to be...
What a vacuous comment. I expect nothing more from shill monkeys. This is the exact type of post that contributes 80% of this thread - it contributes nothing constructive it's the equivalent of a someone saying to a group "Isn't X great" and one of the other muppets nodding and saying "Yeah so good".
AN if someone repeats the stats again I'm going to loose it. If your a fan of the project and looking at the stats then the CHANCES ARE that the people in a thread, dedicated to such an interest have been checking them and don't need to be told every time a single new token is sold.
I've noticed in general that people focus on the ICO numbers WAY too much. The amount of tokens sold, how quickly it sells out, what sort of cap they have, etc....none of it ever correlates to the success of the project. There's a few factors that seem to help:
The community - are there a lot of people genuinely interested in the project and willing to talk about it outside of the ANN thread?
The project itself - Is it a useful project? Is there something already created? How much will the project help the crypto community?
Transparency & communication from the team - Is the team active and communicating with the community? Will there be emails/telegram/slack to keep people up to date on the progress?
These elements will greatly affect the price compared to what sort of cap the ICO has. People will dump or buy tokens well after the ICO is done based on these different standards.
