people are thinking irrationally, that is a fact, and new coins or most of them are using marketing tactics more than taking care of the project itself, they are hiring more marketers and designers than developers.
it is a good way to check if the project is serious or not, to check how much of time, and money they are spending on marketing and how fast they are adding features to the project
No, most of the projects now are scam and all things that has been put into documentation coule be fake. This is the problem with it because no third party that will be used to filter these ICO being promoted here in te forum. Even so if there are groups making a way of listing good project to which for them will be successful still it will fail.
Never to invest in cryptocurrency maybe ideal except for bitcoin and other strong altcoins.
totally agree with you, the market is scary a bit nowadays and scams are everywhere, but that doesn't say there are no new projects are legit and good, I would say to newcomers to invest in top 10 coins for a while till they learn a bit, there they can lose but their loss will never be 100% as it can be with a scam project.
but after that, they can keep diving for more profit percentage with a higher calculated risk, but never follow anyone's analysis, we are all can be wrong, even if we spend the lifetime analyzing, a lot is away from each one's point of view is a factor that makes his predictions less accurate, and unfortunately, we can't no matter how hard we try to collect all info and predict the future.
