To select the best crypto projects, it is essential to combine fundamental analysis, technical analysis, and community analysis. Here is a structured method with several criteria to help you make an effective selection:



🔍 1. Study the real utility of the project (Use case)

Ask yourself the question:

👉 What is the purpose of this project? Does it solve a real problem?


A good project has a clear value proposition (e.g.: Ethereum = smart contracts; Chainlink = oracles).


Avoid "meme" projects with no long-term utility, unless you are speculating in the short term.



📜 2. Read the whitepaper

The whitepaper is the fundamental document. Check:



  • The project's objective


  • The technical functioning


  • The tokenomics (token distribution, inflation, burn, etc.)


  • The roadmap (planned stages)



$
🧠 3. Team and partners


Is the team experienced and transparent?


Do you have their LinkedIn profiles?


Is the project backed by real investors (Binance Labs, Coinbase Ventures, etc.)?


Are there strong partnerships?



📊 4. Tokenomics analysis

What is the maximum supply?


Is the token inflationary or deflationary?


Is there a staking, burn, or lock-up mechanism?



How many tokens are held by the team or whales? (You can use TokenUnlocks to see unlocking periods.)



🏗️ 5. Ecosystem and active development


Is the project active on GitHub? (number of commits, frequency)


Is the ecosystem expanding? (e.g.: new projects developed on this blockchain)



📢 6. Community and media presence


Size and engagement of the community (Telegram, Discord, Twitter, Reddit)


Is the project often mentioned by reliable analysts or influencers?


Be wary of projects with too much hype without foundation.




💹 7. Liquidity and accessibility


Is the token listed on major platforms (Binance, Coinbase, KuCoin…)?


Is it easily tradable? (daily trading volume, slippage, etc.)



🛠️ 8. Compliance and legal risks

Does the project have a clear legal structure?


Is it at risk of being classified as a "security" by the SEC (if you’re investing for the long term)?



🔮 9. Growth potential (Market Cap vs. Fully Diluted Market Cap)


  • A low-cap project with solid fundamentals has more growth potential than a giant already at the top.

  • Compare the current Market Cap with the FDMC (Fully Diluted Market Cap) to see if the price could significantly drop with future token unlocks.




🧩 10. Alignment with market cycles


Preferably invest during a bear market or at the beginning of a bull cycle.
