As of now Visacoin has raised 88.5 BTC in 6 days (link here: https://blockchain.info/address/1PmsmFaNQraZVbBv3Q13jmyucXVJfUo4Hb), and could hit 100 BTC in less than 10 days. This surely has to be close to a record? How have other IPOs performed like NXT and MSC? What were their bottom lines?

I think the bottom line was they had code, not just a bunch of scamware / vapourware.

Pirateat40 might have been the record in the doesn't actually have a real product category, maybe?

I think MasterCoin was the record holder.

Anyways It doesn't matter, look IPO = High risk even in stock markets. There are so many cases where people bought into IPOs only for the stock to tank and never to recover because the company failed to deliver or create a product or legal disputes, etc.

It just the way it is, free market , risk/gain/loss, DYODD, don't give more than you can lose.

turned out to be a scam. Was obviously super obvious. Already started with the crappy logo contest. No idea why people even invest money in that shit.
