On cryptocompare.com, I found the Avesta ICO - it looks nice, but coinanalysis.io says they're a scammer.
is that true?
Edit: Forgot the link
http://coinanalysis.io/avesta/Can not also set an ico is a scam or not, of course there must be evidence first. It could be one of the tricks to thwart an ico project by accusing them of a scam, even though the project is actually good.
Every business is always competing to compete, there is a sportive way there is also a cheat that is to accuse other ico scam, causing teams of projects and participants of bounty resign and investors to attract funds back, eventually the project failed to continue iconya.
Based on my experience of joining bounty ico, while ico project that always provide activity update and progress during ico lasted, it can be said that project will not scam, especially at pre sale, the ico soldout.
Yes, I totally agree with you. It is hard to say the ICO is scam or not. The most important thing we should do is that researching them carefully. If you feel that project is ok, let invest in it. If you are scared, let begin with a small amount.
