What are the risks of investing in dividend paying coins?

[HODL It]

I'm thinking about investing in the BitDice ICO. However, before I do I would like to better understand the most important risks facing dividend paying coins like CSNO. For those of you who don't know, CSNO holders are entitled to 70% of BitDice profits distributed quarterly via Ethereum smart-contract. Common sense seems to have prevailed and US citizens can't participate in this ICO.

Barring that what are possible / likely risks that investors in a coin like this will have to face along the way?

Perhaps big exchanges refusing to list them?
Or perhaps a negative impact in obtaining gambling license?

Any others?

Note: I'm not saying these are valid points. I'm just wanting to open up a discussion and the floor to people smarter than I am.

I was very tempted to invest in bitdice but decided not to exactly for this reason; there is a risk in coins' dividends and it's all about the lack of regulations of this market (which is a good thing in my opinion, but bad for dividends).
Have a look at bitdice for instance.. there's not even the names of the developers! what would investors do if they don't receive any dividends at all? Absolutely nothing.
Not worth the risk IMO.

I hope you guys invested. I did. I think fiat gambling and sports betting will unleash its true power.

Because the token that based on the dividend can be considered as the securities. You can see what already happened with iconomi. the team try to change the business plan at the middle of the development. Caused by that the iconomi can't be listed on the bittrex that works on the SEC compliance. It's not about the gambling license

There is still a danger that the token that pays dividends will fall heavily in price and then the dividends will not be corrected your situation.

The main challenge they have is that they are security and no US exchange will want to list such because they don't have the require certification to be trading securities, project like Rialto is a nice project to me but since it is a dividends paying project only few exchange can touch it

Dividends are some of the company's earnings that are distributed to shareholders and of course this is actually going to be an advantage gained by market participants in committing to a stock investment that can come from Capital Gains as well as Dividends. and that becomes a basic question with what you say right now is What's the difference between the two? How to reap the benefits between the two but for an investment in crypto currency may be beneficial because of an advantage over what has been earned. but the only obstacle is that not many actors in virtual currency are willing to accept this because of a fear of losses.
