Rank of 1-10 each = final score 1-100

Security:

how secure is the blockchain or smart contract, what blockchain does the project use, how might this be attacked?

Participation:

What are you actually getting for this token? Is it hopes of digital gold, is it a share in a company, is it an illegal security, is it an API key?

Accounting and Legal:

How does your token or digital asset relate to the overal project? Is there a parent company? Is it a non profit? Is there a legal structure?

Community Management and Team:

Who is working on this, who suppprts it and why. What it's the track record of the team?

Earnings:

Will this asset earn anything? Will it have value? Why? Of the project does well how will it translate into profit for this digital asset?

Supply and Demand:

Who wants this digital asset? Why? What will they use or HODL it for?
How many are there? Who can decide to make more?

Usability:

Who will use this token and why? Was usability / "utility" an artificial afterthought to comply with securities regs or is it actually usable? Why? How? For what purpose? What else could serve that purpose better or cheaper?

Industry / Institutional Backing:

Who in the industry or of major institutions outside the industry is participating in this, being disrupted by this or who cares about this? Why?

Technical:

What is the technical merit of the project? Who are the devs? What do they do?

X-Factor:

What else is special about this/ not reflected in the list? Add your own factor here.


Since it's quite valuable information and he posted on creative commons incentivizing people to spread it, I thought it was a good idea to spread the word here. Feel free to share, always give credit ;)
