LLTS115 — What to look for when selecting a Crypto Project
In the following article, we will provide a checklist of things to evaluate before investing in a crypto project.
An increasing number of investors are thinking about including crypto assets in their portfolios as cryptocurrency continues to gain mainstream acceptance. But investing in cryptocurrencies can be risky, so it’s important to do your homework on each one before putting money into it. There are several things that need to be evaluated before beginning a crypto project and they are as follows:
1. Team and Leadership
It is essential to research and ensure that the team you are about to start your project with has the necessary skills, team-building work ethic, and confidence in the work that they put forward. It is also important to consider the founders, developers, and advisors of the team because they are the ones running the team, providing them an overview or a structure of the way they can achieve their target and if this does not match with your work mantra, it may cause problems midway. If the team is strong, they have a higher chance of success- even if the idea isn’t groundbreaking than an inexperienced team with a stronger idea.
2. Proof Of Work:
It is highly recommended to check the previous work records of the team that you’re choosing to work with, or the existing data available on the project that you’re opting for. It will provide a fundamental basis for your goals and prove to be useful in the future.
3. Community and Sponsors:
It’s important to evaluate the project’s level of adoption and assess its potential for future growth. A strong community can be a good indicator of the potential success of a crypto project. So if your chosen project has a large fan base, per say, then it will be easier for you to market your project and gain support from all around the world. It will be even better if this large and active community of supporters can help your project by the means of funding or connections to some crucial organizations. Adding to this, it is also advisable to check the sponsorships available for your project beforehand to achieve long-term success.
4. Socials:
To gain a keen insight into a crypto community, it is essential to analyze their social media accounts; namely Twitter, Discord, and Reddit channels. One needs to take notice of their followers and activities in order to make sense of the ‘if’ part of whether the project is worth investing in or not. The number of discussions that their social media pages have taken a part in is also something you wouldn’t want to miss.
Other than this, the supply metrics, market capitalization, trading volume, and price history are all elements that should be considered before beginning a crypto project.
Conclusion:
All in all, assessing a crypto project prior to effective money management requires cautious thought of many variables. Investors can make better decisions about which projects to invest in by taking into account the project team, the technology and use case, the market cap and liquidity, the community and adoption, and security and regulatory compliance. While success in the cryptocurrency industry is not guaranteed, investors can reduce risk and maximize their potential returns by conducting careful due diligence.
