I was thinking about this before i came here today actually.
First thing that jumps out at me is how an ICO functions technically.
So.. allow me to rewind a little bit considering i see you have a new account here.
ICO's were never accepted here in the past.. a couple tried but they were flamed to death.
Why ?
Ideology + morality.
So what i thought *again is this..
The newer guys showing up here don't get it (like your topic proves)
Because that is just how it is now.
Enough people started making ICO's that it eventually became a standard practice.
It is *NOW* commonplace where as in the past it would be simply unheard of and taboo.
For example there is a reason Ripple and Ethereum gained no traction here for YEARS.
It's not simply because they did not get peoples attention.. it's because they were REJECTED !
Because of ideology and because of the
functionality of the coin.
I have had to re-explain this pretty much every single day for many years now..
To every new batch of crypto profiteers who show up with less & less morality lowering the bar every step of the way.
The guys showing up simply don't care.. they want money and morality is an obstacle to be avoided.
Can any of you tell me that any ICO ever released improves on the initial distribution system / block-chain initial launch of Bitcoin ?People.. the most important part of a digital currency *IS* the initial launch of it.
So you can't simply leap frog over the launch and focus the attention on the bullshit tacked onto it.
Further more..
Bering in mind what i just said..
You are here to support the adoption of a digital decentralized open source currency.
NOT....
Centralized ICO's on centralized Exchanges for profits.. that are essentially a scheme and not even a currency.
Get it now ?
Well don't worry i am sure i will be re-posting what i said 1,000's of more times over & over.
ICO = SCAM.
