[SERIOUS] How do you find promising project early?

Among the thousands of shit projects in the crypto space there will be a few promising ones that with time may grow to be huge. Projects such as polygon, moons, etc. My question is how can you find these projects early? What do you look for in projects? Good dev team? active community? Great tokenomics?

Usually when I look for new projects I look at the community to see if it was botted or now, then see if the devs show their faces and are not just putting a monkey pfp, See that not one wallet own more the 30% of all the tokens unless its the treasury.

tldr: What do you look for in projects?
