Securities ? Huh ?  you mean to say secure ? Well no they were not .  ico's are not secure and infact most of them were actually risky because they are only online with no physical offices that you can go whenever you want to inquire for for more details regarding on their project . 

Although there are still fewer ico's left that are secure or more legit because they are compose of a real team with a serious plan in order to serve the people with a good service  .

There is no general answer to this question. Each jurisdiction has its own view on whether tokens offered in an ICO are securities or some other kind of financial instrument. Certain tokens might not even be regulated in some jurisdictions. While the SEC dominates the discussions at the moment, there are good reasons to take a look at regulators in other jurisdictions.

There is one more thing you should consider. Just because you are compliant in one jurisdiction, it does not mean that you can sell your tokens compliantly in other jurisdictions. Let's say your token is not regulated in Singapore, but you intend to sell it to investors from the US, you must comply with US regulations. The same is true for any other jurisdiction in which you target investors.

current ICOs are not securities. but security token offerings (STOs ) are coming on the blockchain soon. ownership of real world assets on the blockchain is upon us.

Here is my brilliant opinion, for me all fo the ICO's would not be considered as securities for a lot of fo reasons to tell. First of all, it is all decentralized. The blockchain made it possible for the people to have these ICO's. This is a full risk. Since not every ICOs will go successful, I would consider ICO's as another type of gambling.

While I'm a fan of BTC and a few Pow coins with zero premine/dev holdings, almost all of these "ICO" "offerings" are utter garbage. Trash. Worthless.

The term "securities" lends way to much credit as to their real worth and stature in the business world.

Unsecurities is more like it.

I absolutely agree with this opinion. ICO can consider real if it is tied with real production, goods or service. For the development of similar projects, the team will carry out all possibilities. And the real actions of this is visible at once.

I think that we need to chouse project for investing with with zealousness, since you can not only lose money but also give your nifty to unnecessary people!
Investing into cryptocurrencies market during icos has proven to be one of the most scamming way of investing.  Billions of dollars has been invested into projects that did not exist any were except in the imagination of the fakes developers.  I personally has lose money investing into many projects that turned out to be scam or abandon.  Cryptocoins market is not security and before you invest into it please seek professional advice.
