I will be short, but reasonable. I will focus on reviewing only ICOs with the biggest potential for a short-term investment, in which I am personally going to participate.

Project

Streamr tokenises real-time data and delivers unstoppable data to unstoppable apps.
Streamr provides a complete system to create unstoppable real-time data apps, even without writing code. Currently, the valuable data you produce is at the mercy of large corporations. In the Streamr network, it’s yours to use and sell as you wish, and travels through a decentralised peer-to-peer network controlled by no one and incentivized by the DATAcoin token.
Let’s consider a self-driving electric car. For optimal operation, it needs data from other machines, such as traffic congestion information from other cars, electricity prices on nearby charging stations, weather forecasts, and so on. Streamr provides a single interface for real-time data delivery and payment, making data streams tradeable using the DATAcoin token.
The car can autonomously get the data it needs and pay for it. In turn, the car can sell the data it produces, such as traffic data to other cars, road condition measurements to a smart city, location and battery level to advertisers, and so on. A data stream economy is born.

Summary

• Solid project with a big growing community.
• Low total funding cap, which is always good for the future tokens price.
• White List with a personal cap.
• Only small cap participants can contribute during the first 24 hours.
• Insignificant discounts for the private and public pre-sale investors.
• From 700 investors who wanted to participate on the pre-contribution phase only 121 managed to do it.
• Tokens will be transferable within a few weeks after the end of the crowdsale.

Although I skipped several points such as team, token distribution, stage of the project, token utility, etc. I believe the hype says for itself. People want to contribute to this project and it looks like many whales won’t get on the boat as most of the funds will be raised from the small cap contributors. For me as for a short-term investor it’s all what matters.
