[Investment research method - how to analyze the encryption project team through 8 steps]

When working on any project, the team is crucial.

Especially early in a project, the most critical variable is often the team.

Therefore, never underestimate the importance of a thorough team analysis. Also, be wary of anonymous teams!

This thread shares how to do a good job of project team analysis through 8 steps

investment research

identify team members

First we identify key members of the team, including founders, developers, and advisors.

Most projects list their team members on their official website.

Similarly , we can use https://cypherhunter.com/en/p/aave/ to complete this step more efficiently.

Just enter the project name in the search bar and click on project members to see more information about them.

investment research

Assess founder team background

It can be analyzed from the following aspects:

- Do you have work experience in the blockchain industry - past experience and performance

- Ability to produce results

- Clear and good communication skills

- Team compatibility

Assess the focus of the founder team

This part is easy, do you focus on one project? If key team members are involved in multiple projects at the same time, the energy contribution must be insufficient.

It is important to consider the size of the team in relation to the scope and complexity of the project.

Make good use of LinkedIn

See past experience of team members via @LinkedIn .

Not only that, but it's also crucial to see if there are any discrepancies between your LinkedIn and company/outside profiles.

research consultant

Advisors can play a key role in directing projects. A quality advisory board can add credibility to a project.

We need to assess the quality and relevance of project consultants.

I like to use @crunchbase for all these details.

The main ones to focus on are:

- key team members and advisors;

- financing rounds;

- investors

investment research

Research and development team

Here you can use the @ElectricCapital dashboard to check if the project has regular code updates and contributions.

research social media

See how your team is doing on social media.

- is it transparent

- Interacting with the community Transparency and community engagement can be a sign of a trustworthy team, we need to look for a team that communicates openly and transparently with the community

news

See if you can catch the dynamics of the group members in some news, and add another layer of inspection standards.
