So I've succesfully entered the dadi.cloud ico with 4 ethers! (not all of them are mine ..)
While it wasnt the hardest ICO I got into you did have to follow some good to know rules:
If there Is a KYC (Know your customer) process involved upload your documents as soon as possible and be accurate about the demands from them. Upload a passport/id photo that is shown clearly and utilty bills that shows your real address and the same name as on the passport/id . If you do it right you will have time to enter the early presale stages and earn that bonus.
If it is an erc20 token ico you have to use an erc20 complaint wallet like myetherwallet.com or metamask, If you send it any other way you can lose your tokens! also, dont hesitate to use the maximum gwei available (99)
also, set the gas limit to 200000
this will assure that your transaction will never get an "out of gas" error and it will arrive faster then everybody else. The fee will not be that high and its worth it if this is the next 10 X or more no? :)
3 . Use the fastest PC you have and the fastest internet connection you have access to. The reason for this is when the ICO counter reaches zero you will need most of the times to refresh the page and then if you want to be one of the firsts that is shown the updated page with the actual details on how to enter the ico you will need to have a delay free internet connection
look at the difference between the delay of a fiber optic line I have access to:
and a regular adsl home line:
the less the ping value the less delay . This could be the value that determens your success of entering a particular big hype ICO.
