If you can't trust ICO ratings, then what can you trust?

Here's another edition of our weekly Basescore blog Smiley
https://medium.com/basescore/if-you-cant-trust-ico-ratings-what-can-you-trust-30901fc6cc61

When the ICO market exploded in 2017 it was promptly following by the emergence of dozens of ICO rating agencies — but to what extent should they be relied on when making investment decisions?

With the rise of ICOs also came the rise of the ‘ICO economy’, which refers to the economic activity that has sprung out of the boom in initial coin offerings, which require a range of peripheral services to succeed. Developers, copywriters, digital marketers, social media managers, PR agencies, lawyers, strategic advisors, media outlets, and ICO rating agencies are all participants in the ICO economy, and everyone is benefiting.

But then, of course, came the bad players looking to ruin it for everyone... Enjoy!

New Features, Bug Fixes & More!

Update: Not a lot of front end, but a whole lot of back end development this week. We ran into a number of issues on our back end, so we spent a lot of time optimizing our servers so that we can continue to deliver updates to the ICO database. I think you'll like what you see.

Details available on our Medium update: https://medium.com/basescore/september-27th-2018-update-new-features-bug-fixes-more-9135e6cc1a3e

“Security Tokens Ruin Decentralization”, Says No One Ever

We now understand that most utility tokens are essential for protocols and their purpose in providing a role into their ecosystem to entice users in providing resources into it. With the introduction of Security Tokens, how will this affect Basescore and our current due diligence strategy? First off, we can take the token metric out of it and look at companies similar to a true venture capitalist.

Our platform is built for due diligence. Read our blog today at: https://medium.com/basescore/security-tokens-ruin-decentralization-says-no-one-ever-76164e09d9af

I think that 90 percent of people here believe in new All time highs this year in late December. But I think that this will be another bull trap. Big investors (whales) will not let you get rich.  Wink


My sentiment exactly Wink but let's hope for the best!

And we're live! Wink Our team is excited to announce the launch of Basescore 1.0 (currently in beta) | https://basescore.co, a new ICO evaluation and rating platform that aggregates reviews from the leading crypto critics to help investors find all the information they need on the ICOs they love. Call us the "Metacritic of ICOs" Wink

Trust and transparency has always been an issue in cryptocurrency. This corruption was exposed to a large scale recently when it was revealed that Alethena managed to buy fake ratings for their ICO that they had listed on ICO Bench.

There are a countless number of dubious practices and scams in ICOs, and we want to make sure investors get a fuller picture on a project before they decide to dive into their next one with their hard-earned money.



Introducing Basescore
Basescore is our solution to the trust and transparency issue in cryptocurrency. By aggregating over 7,000 review stores from the leading critics in the space, we hope to provide a single, weighted BASE SCORE that serves as a true reflection on how the project actually fares in the space. Basescore aims to take the guesswork out of investing, and provide investors with the knowledge that they need to make an informed decision.

Our goal is to build the world's largest ICO database so that any investor would be able to discover all the information they need on an ICO starting from Basescore.

See the site in action yourself here: https://basescore.co

Connect With Us
We want to be customer-centric, so we are always listening to you to make sure you feel heard. If you have any questions or you'd like to request a feature, just talk to us by emailing us or directly through our website.

Well this is a great idea, great news. Coinmarketcap version of ICOs.
Quoted this post to help for the image appear.

Aww shucks Wink Thanks for much for the words of encouragement. I'll be sure to pass the good word over to our team Smiley

New Read!

We've just uploaded a new article on Medium, talking about ICO due diligence and how we can use an ICO's smart contracts to stay on top of their teams. It's a great, technical read, but is an extremely useful tool for keeping track of the good ICOs and separating them from the bad. We hope you'll enjoy!

We're very picky with ICOs. We just launched our ICO reviews aggregation platform called Basescore (https://basescore.co). It's a great research tool for anyone looking to learn more about ICOs. We don't write our own reviews to stay unbiased, but we aggregate ICO reviews from the leading critics, like ICO Bench, Crypto Briefing, ICO Rating, etc. under one roof to help users like you find what you're looking for faster and easier.

Take a look at https://basescore.co and let us know what you think Smiley

Let us know what you think!
Those are great points but you forgot to include the basics:

- Fake team members
  • A "reverse image search" takes less than 5 minutes and you can easily find websites (on google) that offers such services (for free).

- Duplicate/plagiarized content
  • Same as the above line, simply search for "plagiarism check" on google.

Hey @SFR10, we just wanted to let you know that we have added your points into our blog:

Using your website to view ICO projects is free, right?
How are you earning from this platform?

Also, this website is very handy as you can already see the ICO rating of a particular project from different websites.
But, yeah, someone still need to do his own due diligence as basing the score from only few review sites is not a guarantee that they are really authentic ones.

Thanks for asking!

Yes, the website is free! We plan on keeping it that way too for users in the long-term too. We want to build a community of ICO investors who love ICOs and will contribute their questions, thoughts, reviews, etc. together for transparency into the market. What we have right now is just the first step to our grand master plan to ensure users stay engaged.

We definitely want users to continue doing their own due diligence, but we hope that Basescore can become their launch pad to learn more about the ICOs they're interested in. We understand that reviews can come off as shills, so by gathering all of them into one location, it'll be easier to identify the good ones from the bad.

In terms of earning from this platform, right now we're just looking to build the community so we're offering our services free of charge. In the future, we plan on offering advanced data analytics (paid) tools to investors that will allow them to dive deeper and gain greater insights into ICOs, ie. comparison tools, competitive analysis, market analysis, crypto-related news. Tools that are catered to VCs, professionals, etc.

Happy to answer any other questions that you may have.
