Great information, thanks for sharing!
I also would add "try to research how long ago that HYPE started...." This gives you indication: how many people involved / how fast the whole ICO is evolving / how fast the money is being invested, coins bought etc / time frame of the actual ICO is the key for those companies to attract investment, In negative mood market Companies attract less money, than in positive....
The whole ICO business, is getting more and more complicated as more people are getting involved, some of them sadly investing money: as gambling, just to make more money, not really caring about project viability or fundamentals... (hype created and attracts lots stupid money). On the other hand more genuine good projects are in the space, and when the noise will calm down, those project will grow into massive worldwide companies, thanks to those ICOs!

Good luck to everyone who invests!
