I try to read white paper before investing but sometimes the pages are too much for my brain to take it. Normally I prefer reading on comments and what people are discussing about on the particular token. They usually hit on important questions as well.

Before investing I read all the documentation I can find and check the backgrounds of the people behind the ICO.

I, too, carefully study information about the project and its creators. But despite this, I also often make mistakes.

I try to read the wp. But sometimes there isn't much time because you are about to miss the next bonus mark. So you go through the forums and make a quick buy

No, I'm not reading. I look at the price growth chart and decide. But I buy coins for short-term trading
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?

Yes. Investors read as much as they can.

Yes. Investors read as much as they can.

Information that we can find on the White Pages does not always reflect the truth. I saw a lot of IСO, which deceived investors. It's hard to find the truth today

If I buy coins on the exchange, in order to immediately sell them, then I do not read about them

Sometimes I read about a coin, but more often I buy blindly

Post by: anders2000 on November 14, 2017, 10:16:06 PM
I think this is very important. You should know about the coin you are going to buy. If you are a wise investor, then read the White Pages

may skim through it just to get a better look and understanding of the development and direction of the offering
but if I like the way it sounds and see the potential and find that there is a solid team I feel ok with the investment

Of course not everything you read is necessarily true. That is why there's a need to verify further. Serious investors do this.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: Zoldyck on May 14, 2018, 09:42:48 AM
Yes of course, because you can read the all information about the ICO that you want to invest.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: Ghost on May 14, 2018, 10:54:15 AM
Of course I read WhitePaper to understand the essence of the project, to assess its prospects, the validity of the application of blockchain technologies. Only very risky people invest in blindness.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: whishor on May 14, 2018, 06:53:04 PM
Usually i just read for 1-2 minute whitepaper because its not most important for me thing, most important things are:
1)team 2) open etherium adress, so i can check how much money they collected 3) open code in github of the project.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: Dacosta on May 15, 2018, 03:15:56 AM
I usually read the executive summary and scan throught the rest. Buh i pay some attention to the team and ICO. I also join their telegram pages and read peoples comments about the project
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: dominoes on May 15, 2018, 07:02:29 AM
Not too much but I think reading the whitepaper is a good habit in crypto investment. Practice will make every habit perfect. It is one way to avoid participating in scam ICO.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: Drew28 on May 15, 2018, 09:36:58 AM
Well, whitepapers are a pain to read especially if it's too long and difficult to understand. But if I find an interesting ICO, I absolutely read the whitepaper. Take this for instance https://vlux.io/Vlux_Whitepaper_016.pdf
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: TERMINO on May 16, 2018, 05:05:13 AM
I did not read whitepaper but I read the thread in order to have a little bit information about the project. Although to read the whitepaper is good I did not do that, maybe someday I will.

I read but neccesarily believe in everything that is written on whitepaper, you have to be very selective with the project you are investing your time/money.

Do you read white paper before investing ?
Yeah! But I usually not trust it until I am done checking the community in social media like facebook, twitter, telegram and video presentation.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: Jasper Dudong on May 17, 2018, 02:09:43 AM
Yes, I do read the white paper to know what the project will be. I specifically focus on its roadmap and its team members to know the progress that will happen in the future and to investigate if the team are really working on that project.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: saoaccel on May 17, 2018, 07:22:55 AM
Most of the time I read the whitepaper since it contains all the information you need to know about the project, about their team, and how would they use the funds that they got from their ICO start up. Knowing the project itself is the most crucial part in investing into crypto currency.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: Dacosta on May 17, 2018, 08:42:13 AM
most projects have whitepapers with too many pages which makes it very hard to read everything. But i think if you really mean business. Its advisable to read at least about 70 percent of the whitepaper to get a fair knowledge about the project and invest wisely
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: spatialiste on May 21, 2018, 09:22:57 PM
I take the time to read the whitepaper before making an investment, the way it is written helps understand understand if the team is serious or not,and sometimes we find information that few people know (precisely because they do not read it  ;)).
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: linkdefeu on May 22, 2018, 12:43:30 AM
I prefer read the roadmap and speak with community before invest on crypto.  8)

I read WP sometimes but not all the time.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: Dacosta on May 22, 2018, 02:00:48 PM
That should be the ideal thing every investor should do. If you decide not to read because you think you dont have time, the possibility of you joining a failing coin is high and will lose your money
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: Niteroy on May 22, 2018, 04:02:14 PM
Naturally, before investing it is necessary to study as much material as possible about the project and reading White Paper is one of the important points. Although I can say that I invested in two projects without reading their White Paper, but they were both successful enough. I met projects with a well-written White Paper, a good idea, but they did not succeed. I think that to select a project for investment, you need to look at a lot of things, for example on mentioning in the press, to study each member of the team, to look at their social pages, if possible, to communicate with them. Openness of the team is the first sign of trusting the project.

Post by: carcas on May 22, 2018, 05:11:19 PM
First before I joined the ico project the main thing I see is in wp and website. because that's where I know how the project is growing and successful in the future
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: owmivmen on May 23, 2018, 11:24:44 AM
Yes it must be before I join ICO project. WP is essential to read and understand projects that will be developed and for long-term investments.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: natasha11 on May 23, 2018, 04:01:44 PM
Of course. That's how you decide what is a good ICO. You can check what is the plan of the projects. That how I decided on LEDU, for example.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: Bobcrypto on May 23, 2018, 08:13:50 PM
Yes you are very right.it is very important to read any new startup project white papers.
Most typical investors actually don’t read through the whitepaper, even though it contains all the necessary information about the upcoming project and the ICO.
Don’t hesitate to read it, or at least the majority of it. Note the strong and negative aspects and add in some of your own research. In the end, the whitepaper is the silver platter to potential investors. After reading it you should be able to answer a simple question – what kind of value does this project bring to our world? You’ll also learn what you’re investing in.

Some people can put deceptive information   in their whitepapers to attract investors meanwhile they are scammers. Whitepaper doesnt always gaurantee success

There is no big mistake than not reading the whitepaper, you have to know what you can expect from a new project. Read it but not always believe everything that is written there. GOOD LUCK!
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: Aliados on May 25, 2018, 04:02:10 PM
Nope I did not read whitepaper because I did not yet try to invest. I think to read the whitepaper is a must for everyone who wants to invest. It is a must in order to have enough knowledge about the particular ICO.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: ach64 on May 25, 2018, 06:25:33 PM
Oh yes I always do that. I like to get more info about the project and also as a bounty hunter, it helps me to write blogs as well
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: julliandrey on May 26, 2018, 07:47:33 AM
of course! when it comes to investing you should read more informations and collect all the details about the coin you are going to invest you must read the whitepaper before u invest so you get the idea of the coin you are going to invest

No!  Reading whitepaper is just tedious as the papers tends to be much.

No, I'm not reading. I look at the price growth chart and decide. But I buy coins for short-term trading
for me i read only sometime if  im interested in the campaign.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: Redhead5 on July 06, 2018, 12:34:10 PM
I read everything! .)) especially information about team!

It is better to read and make a dip research of the project being stated in the white paper if it is reliable and that have good ideas before investing it. And try to verify also if the #DevelopmentTeam  members who are managing the project are real and legit in identities.

It is very good to read comments and others questions to a project, but it is very strange to skip reading a whitepaper. Simply the executive summary of that particular whitepaper will do. Please read whitepapers before investing.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: Master107 on July 07, 2018, 05:46:21 AM
Sometimes I did but to be honest not always doing that. It helps me to know the project that I wanted to participate. Whitepaper is a tool to know the important details regarding the project.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: eldial on July 07, 2018, 11:17:10 AM
Yes of course I really read white paper before investing because in whitepaper you can seen the group or a team which is  launching there products but the main reason why I read is to avoid the scammers or your money will not be waste.

Yes of course I wanna read white paper  before investing because this is the one way to avoid scammers while searching the background especially in campaign .this is the most important as had catch on my opinion just be careful and searching first before joined.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: SuccessManiac on July 10, 2018, 01:14:22 AM
I do. Knowing about the project is very important before you invest in a project. At times, the white paper contains very little information and sometimes it gives you a clue as to whether the project is fake or not.

Post by: masudginanjar on August 08, 2018, 05:36:22 PM
that's once, because from the whitepaper we can see what will happen in the future to the coin.

buying coins without reading the whitepaper might be like you walk on a pitch black night without carrying a flashlight.

I usually participate in content creation bounties so reading white papers before investing in a project is something not new to me
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: Jaguar on August 08, 2018, 06:26:00 PM
Honestly I did it but seldom. When I found out the project is legit I would not read the whitepaper. When trust developed in me I stop searching. Often that I do reading but in some cases I do.

Of course, it is the main foundation, blueprint of the ico project. Without its whitepaper, I'm not sure if the coin or token will be valid to the investors.

Of course yes, i always read white paper before investing my bucks in the ICOs projects due to i must know more about the projects of ICOs, one of way to know more about the projects of ICOs is come from their white paper and it is important thing for me due to will getting large of information about their projects of ICOs.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: UNIVERSE on August 09, 2018, 08:41:19 AM
definetly yes. reading white paper before joining the ICO is important. in the white paper we will get clear information about the projects offered by ICO. based on the whitepaper, we can predict whether the ICO project is good or not.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?
Post by: The Translator on August 09, 2018, 10:08:31 AM
yes I read white paper, it is very important to me. because this involves investment that is not small, and that is necessary. although sometimes I didn't read because it was too long, and I paid more attention to just a few comments from friends. that's my opinion.
Title: Re: Do you read white paper before investing ?

White paper reading is so important. It makes you understand what you are getting into. Sometimes it is really boring, but it should be read.

Yea reading white paper is must be done before investment in the ICOs, the people must know about reading white paper is really really important to getting large of knowledge.

Yes i do, i always read white paper before investing. Because i must to know concept of the project and how much inventory token and where token distribution go, besides that i also visited some of the project articles. The most important before investing in my opinion, you must visit the website and social media and participate in their community. You should observe firstly by reading the comments on their social media, reviewing project development, and sharing opinions with other investors. I think this is main assessment before investing.

Post by: bhm45 on August 09, 2018, 01:20:06 PM
Yes I do, and its actually important. read only the white paper of those project that you really think that has potential. So many ICO's happening right now and I agree that it can be a burden, but if you want your investment to be safe and you want to avoid SCAM then reading the whitepaper is necessary.
