TOP 3 ICOS OF OCTOBER 2017
With more & more ICOs coming up out of nowhere, there is no way to know & assess which ICOs are good, average, poor or absolute scams. After making & losing a bit of my hard-earned cash in various ICOs in last few months I want to share my knowledge with the community.
When I started trading with cryptocurrency, there were no good sites, not much news, no experts, no gurus, in fact everyone seemed to be an expert. I don’t want to claim to be an expert but I have at least learnt how to assess an ICO & put my opinion out there. After all I made a few millions just trading with ICOs.
So, as I start with my Blogs here on Medium, I will write about different topics & also share my favourite ICOs that I am investing in & why. Let’s start with this October’s top ICO pick:
Global Jobcoin
Worldcore
Utrust
Global Jobcoin
https://www.globaljobcoin.com/
Global Jobcoin is a cryptocurrency created to pay for services related to employment & integrated into international Job platforms of Jobstoday, one of the leading Job platforms in Switzerland, Germany, Poland & Austria. Clients can hire & pay for Freelancer services on the Jobstoday platforms, being protected by Smart Contract technology. GJC is an ERC20 token based on the Ethereum blockchain.
This is very interesting project with an existing product. They have an international Job platform in four major European countries: Switzerland, Germany, Austria & Poland. They are raising money through ICO to expand worldwide. They might become the next Monster of Job platforms.
Crowd Sale Information
Start date: 28 October 2017 15:00 UTC
End date: 06 December 2017 15:00 UTC
Total supply: 100,000,000 (100 Million) tokens
Tokens offered in Crowd Sale: 70,000,000 (70 Million)
Hard Cap: 60 Million
Token Price: 0.71 USD (71 cents)
Positive:
· Professional Team
· Good Website & Whitepaper
· Good Video & Presentation
· Smart Contract is available for review
· Company Information is available
· Existing profitable product
· New product release already in development stage presented
· 20% of company profits are shared with token holders
· 10% of the profits are invested in buying back Global Jobcoins from the market
Negative:
· No interviews with the founders is available as yet
· No advisors are listed on the website
Verdict: They have an existing & profitable product with more than 5000 clients. Very transparent about their ICO & the team responds to questions very fast. Registered Swiss company since 2014 is always a great advantage. Only 100 Million tokens, so price of the token might appreciate very fast after crowd sale. This ICO would probably sell out within minutes.
Worldcore
Worldcore is a digital financial institution that is ready to integrate usual financial products into the blockchain sector of economy. Regardless of working with bank transfers, plastic cards or cryptocurrencies, you can manage everything through a Worldcore account.
The company is located in Prague, Czech Republic & they are operational since 2015. My analysis is very positive about this company. An established company with over 100 Million transaction volume.
Token Crowd Sale Information
Start date: 14 October 2017 14:00 UTC
End date: 15 November 2017 13:00 UTC
Total supply: 1,000,000,000 (1 Billion) tokens
Crowd sale Token offered: 870,000,000
Hard Cap: 100 Million
Token Price: 0.10 USD
Positive:
· Established & successful company
· Good Website & Whitepaper
· Good Video & Presentation
· Token holders receive 30% of the profits
· Company Information is available
Negative:
· Extremely Greedy ICO for an established company
· Too many tokens, token price will not rise fast
· No Smart Contract available for review
· Not much Social Media Activity
Verdict: They have presented themselves very professionally & are very attractive due to dividends offered to token holders. Should be a successful ICO selling out within few days or maybe even hours.
Utrust
Utrust is a blockchain-based platform that combines elements from traditional payment systems with the advantages provided by cryptocurrencies. The platform allows users to buy items, digital or physical, with their favourite cryptocurrency or token while providing a consumer-protection system in which coins are held in escrow until the transaction is fully complete. In case of a conflict, the resolution is handled by Utrust.
The company seems very professional & seems to know what they are talking about. However, there are very less details about the real product itself. They changed their ICO structure after the announcement. They will announce the Crowd sale dates during the first week of October.
Token Crowd Sale Information
Start date: To be announced first week of October
End date: To be announced first week of October
Total supply: 1,000,000,000 (1 Billion) tokens
Crowd sale Token offered: 700,000,000
Hard Cap: 49 Million
Token Price: 0.065 (6.5 cents)
Positive:
· Professional Team
· Good Website & Whitepaper
· Good Video & Presentation
Negative:
· Too many tokens, token price will not rise fast
· No Prototype available
· No Smart Contract available for review
· No company address or legal structure information
Verdict: They have done good marketing & probably will sell out in few days. However due to extremely high number of tokens, the price will not appreciate so fast.
I would be investing in all these 3 ICOs this month. However, I suggest everyone to do their own due diligence & invest responsibly. Crypto market is still very speculative so I won’t advise anyone to put their life savings in it.
