You must be careful, try to avoid scam projects!
First of all you need to read their white paper.
I think some have excellent white papers, but still end up badly due to either bad admin decisions or for being scams in the first place.
Out of 100 ICOs, about 5 or even more of them can turn out to be the either one mentioned above. Social platforms censoring "real" opinions or known personalities paid to market shit coins is making the word ICO look bad.
On the other hand, has anyone else noticed this upcoming platform/token sale?
https://www.menlo.one I think this will be a game changer as it aims to expose scam/vaporware with its unique reward system. Haven't had time to go into details of this project, but was hoping someone could give me a tldr if this is could possibly be a good project to participate in?
