The Token is ultimately listed on the stock exchange, I think so. Also successful ICOs usually have a good audience.
I agree most successful ICOs have a large number investors, the exception of course is the super successful ones like BAT which sold out in 30 seconds from huge investors.
Do you have any idea of an easy way to tell how many people invested in an ICO? The only way I know of is counting the initial transfers of the tokens on the blockchain :/
