You have not set forth your position in detail. What does it mean that ICO teams should have their own budget? In what currency and in what amount should it be? The ICO team pays for the participants in the ICO generosity campaign with their new tokens. Payment in anything else is unprofitable for them. We can still talk about payment at will in ethereum. In general, the existing payment system seems to me the most optimal.

I do not see any point in conducting a KYC audit. In order for the ICO team to have no further complaints from the US and Chinese authorities, I think it is enough to notify investors about this and that investors confirm by pressing the corresponding virtual button that they are not citizens of the USA and China.
If we are talking about the prevention of money laundering, the collection of confidential information cannot be entrusted to temporary teams that do not pass a full-fledged check. In addition, this database is practically not used in any way and there is no point in it, only there is a very great danger of using this data in the future for illegal purposes.
ICO generosity campaigners should not be tested by KYC at all, as they are not investors and cannot launder dirty money.

This means that the ICO team either does not know what to do next with its project, or simply intends to run away and while trying to contain a wave of well-deserved perturbations of investors and headhunters.
In any case, this is a very bad sign for the ICO project.

Yes, it is well noticed. From the second half of this year, already launched ICO projects began to be massively delayed, extended, announced the second round at the ICO, and other such actions, from which it can be seen that not everything is in order with fundraising. This, of course, indicates that the market as a whole is sick, it has significant problems that interfere with its normal operation. This problematic state of the market lasts until today. The reason for this - for a number of established reasons, investors are not showing proper activity.

Stable coins are very convenient and irreplaceable in some cases. They do not serve, like other cryptocurrencies, as a source of profit, but rather as a buffer between cryptocurrency and ordinary currency, as well as a settler in some cases when it is urgent to withdraw funds from a certain cryptocurrency. Stable coins are very quick work with cryptocurrency, but how good they are technically, time will tell.

The ICO teams are now applying to bounty hunters a new form of fraud, with which something needs to be done - this is an unspecified earlier test of KYC after the end of the ICO.

As a lawyer, I can say that the conditions for joining the ICO generosity campaign are in fact one of the types of contracts with so-called implicit, that is, silent actions. The fact that we further fill out their form of accession means that we have agreed to their terms of the contract.

In any contract there are so-called essential terms of the contract, which must always be specified. If at least one of them is not specified, the agreement on the decision of the court may be invalidated. The contract price, that is, the amount payable to bounty hunters, is one of the essential conditions of the contract and must be clearly stated. If it can change, it should be indicated in what cases and by how much. Otherwise, such a contract will be invalid. If in the terms of accession it is only generally indicated that any conditions may be changed, then such a piece of paper cannot be recognized as a contract and will in any case be illegal.

If the contract is made and executed, one of the parties is not entitled to declare additional substantial payment terms that were not previously agreed

In this case, this should be considered an ordinary fraud, and the ICO team should bear the material, and in the case of the intention of such actions, the criminal liability for fraud, that is, the seizure of another's property by deception or abuse of trust.

What do you think we need to do in this case with such fraud?

You are not right. We are not users. With the ICO team, we actually enter into a contract, filling out their form of joining the ICO generosity campaign. In fact, this is a contract for the provision of services, that is, the advertising of their project ICO.

Bounty hunters are one of the parties to this treaty and must be carried out by both parties. The fact that now the ICO team, after the fulfillment of the contract, announces the KYC audit, is a new type of fraud in order to not pay us the earned tokens. In some cases, we simply cannot enter the required information due to the fact that different states have different legislation.

Do you think that we should not even complain if we are illegally deprived of earned tokens by committing fraud against us?

That you carefully read the conditions for joining the campaign of generosity ICO.

Holding a tight bitcoin forks in cash and the appearance on November 15 of a new coin Bitcoin Stash enlivened the cryptocurrency market a bit. The price of bitcoin in cash began to rise, after all, many are interested in getting free coins appearing. The bad thing is that there is no agreement in the Bitcoin cash team, this does not make this coin popular.

Cryptocurrency is just one of the products of blockchain technology. There may be many of them. Therefore, the blockchain technology, as a broader concept, may well exist without cryptocurrency.
Blockchain technology can be used wherever large databases need to be stored in open access mode while maintaining a high degree of security. In the Internet system, this opens up unlimited possibilities, since it allows you to cover certain types of activities at once across the globe.

If the stock market collapses, as in 2008, then I think that this will positively affect the cryptocurrency market. Some of those shareholders who are already familiar with cryptocurrency will undoubtedly urgently pull out their falling assets from stocks and invest them in cryptocurrency. After all, these two markets are in no way interconnected.

No, these two factors - the extraction of almost all or all bitcoins and the legalization of cryptocurrency by the states will in no way affect the greater volatility of the bitcoin price. The price of bitcoin, as well as the entire decentralized cryptocurrency is formed solely on the relationship between supply and demand, and they will never be stable, because there are a lot of participants on the market and they all perform different actions. Since the course of Bitcoin is not supported by anyone, it will always show its high volatility.

No, the usual currency will never end, it will go in all states for a very long time. The percentage of using non-cash forms of payment will grow. In the future, the percentage of use of cryptocurrency will also gradually increase. However, most of all it will be used as payments between citizens and payments, where now they are calculated using electronic wallets for payments for purchases.
Cryptocurrency is a very specific type of virtual money, which not everyone will use because it requires certain knowledge and skills, as well as the adoption of security measures against hacking hacks. At the same time, you must always carry with you a technical device connected to the Internet. Theft in this case of such a device will bring much more problems than the theft of a credit card or cash.

It is unlikely that the ICO project will now collect even the minimum amount of funds if it requires investors and bounty hunters to undergo a KYC test with a video call. Due to various technical, organizational, moral and other reasons, many will not be able or unwilling to undergo such a KYC test. So let the ICO teams try this innovation, and I will see what happens in them. It is unlikely then a second chance, even without a video call, will pass.

It would be very surprising if ethereum was not popular. After all, about 90 percent of all ICOs are held on the platform of this coin, and ethereum is needed to transfer created tokens.
In addition, now this coin is very unfairly lowered in price, and given the upcoming improvements in it, it looks very tempting for investment.

So far, no ICO team has shown who and how they are asked to conduct a KYC check against participants in the ICO generosity campaign. It is one thing to require such an inspection from investors who invest their money in ICO projects, and another thing from people who will advertise their project and with whom they will pay for their services

If we take into account that this forecast was made in January, when Bitcoin was still relatively high in price, then the prediction of a large drop in Bitcoin itself turned out to be true. However, it is good that below 6,000 dollars Bitcoin did not fall. Now it is already definitely falling, in any case, strongly, Bitcoin will not be. It will either remain relatively stable in its price for some time, or it will already rise and raise the entire cryptocurrency market.

Yes, I totally agree with you. Very often, the ICO teams announce about KYC verification only at the end of the ICO, when the number of tokens to be rewarded for participating in the ICO generosity campaigns is already calculated or even already calculated. It is obvious that in this case the ICO team comes up with ways not to pay parts to the bounty hunters of the tokens they earned. Not everyone wants to be tested by KYC or can do it for various reasons. The calculated but unpaid tokens to the participants behind the heads are then assigned by the ICO team. Moreover, it should be noted that the verification of KYC is generally illegal for bounty hunters, since they are not investors in ICO projects.

Yes, the EOS coin has not shown itself very well and the reviews about it are very contradictory. Since it is still not so high in price, just in case a certain amount of this coin must be kept in its wallets. In the meantime, you need to look at her, she may have a good prospect, or it can be a great fraud. It is possible that in the future it will be a good competition for ethereum.

Yes, stable coins are very convenient and practical when working with cryptocurrency. These are practically auxiliary coins that are not used for profit, but very well help other cryptocurrency users in this. Stable coins are very good for use as a buffer and a sump.
