I don't think it's the end of ICO's I think its only the beginning. There's so much more in Digital World and I believe its the demand that will determine the success/failure not China or US.
yes it is not. its not the end of ico even south korea ban and china ban of ico doest mean an end of an ico. as you can see on the market. all of the coin value is raise up and become stable once again. its because japan is support investing on ico. you can read the article here

https://www.cnbc.com/2017/09/29/bitcoin-exchanges-officially-recognized-by-japan.html

so there is still hope for ico and there is always a way out.

As long as they don't get suspended on Russia haha  Grin. On a more serious note tho, it may actually have the opposite effect (Streisand Effect) and result in ICOs being more profitable

Maybe for the ones that do go through with it, but I think as more regulations pop up there will be less and less ico's being launched.
But this ICOs will be well-thinking, legitimate and clear for all. And wild west of ICOs ended. With all + and - .

It was just the beginning!

Rulers (or governments) are trying to keep disruptive technologies under control and basically just try to utilise it for their own interests by exploiting the weaker as much as they can until the basis for realising their plans is set.

So when the infrastructure for high finance of cryptos is set, I believe they'll open up the ecosystem for the mainstream.



I think its okay if they stop those ICO's but its good that it will be regulated, screened and studied before it will be open to public. Or, it is better to fund some startup in kick starter projects as we will see the development and how the projects goes on. There are already many kickstarter startup that succeed, where its good to invest.

It can be good, but regulation is a double edged sword.  We first decided to do an ICO because it was cost effective and the idea was new projects could get crowdfunded easily as people would invest in the "idea".  Of course many would not work out but the point of the crowdfunding would be many investors contributing very small amounts, "taking a shot".  Regulation is just another word for taxes and costs.  I can show you hundreds of companies that run "reverse merger" scams on listed stock exchanges.  The SEC is fully aware, but as long as you pay the fees and taxes you can keep changing your symbol and keep taking money.  There is no investor protection whatsoever.  it is a tax game.  Now the ICO market is no different than equities.  Where is the benefit?

Except REGULATION does not stop scams - they just make them legal.  Regulators are not going to judge if it is a bad or good ICO, they will just require fees and taxes.  The government does not require your business will work, only that you pay the incorporation fee, the listing fee and the taxes.

Regulation is good and needed to protect investors from scams, that's what is driving it, but the ICO marketing is in its early stages, and blockchain projects will permeate through every nuance of every industry, especially after all of the ICOs that raised money on a concept have their developed and fully adopted platforms. With time regulators might evolve securities laws to for special coin circumstances based on if it's good for society, in progressive countries.

People will always find a way to invest in these things. There are already projects in which not only investors, but also developers are anonymous.
I think this is the next step, governments never see the consequences of their actions they only see a market without regulation and then they think they are needed when that is not the case, now that they are trying to regulate the market, there are going to be icos and investors that are going to deliberately avoid those regulations and by doing so they are going to expose themselves to even greater risks than they would have done otherwise.

In my opinion, the ban on holding an ICO in China, and then in South Korea, did not affect the number of campaigns currently conducted. In addition, I believe that this prohibition is temporary and will be resumed as soon as measures are taken to reduce the risk in their conduct.

SEC regulation worked well here - http://fortune.com/2017/10/01/sec-ico-fraud-charges/

However, what will the result be? People get there money back, i.e. "Protection"... probably more like a fine.

No i don't think they will allow scam project to came up unto them since they will surely do some proper validation of the team,project and the intention of the ICO to run up and if there's certain ICO will be regulated and scam people then they will be sorry since they will be easily identified and get sued if they will do there evil plans regarding on running a scam ICO.

i don't think ICO's gonna end someday.
Maybe after 2-3 years, they could become more under control than today.

ICO's are definitely not over for some time. They might get regulated in certain countries after a while though.

I think regulation is better than complete exclusion. China can allow ICO, in time. We'll wait, we'll see.

Are ICO's as we know them coming to an end?  U.S., now China... Will all ICO's be regulated now? (would regulation be good?)

And now South Korea too. Yes, they will survive with regulation, which will be a good thing to weed out the scams.

I don't believe ICOs will end anytime soon. But they will be regulated and I don't think regulation is bad. The only problem I see with regulation is that terms aren't internationally agreed, which means that not all companies (will) have the same conditions and that is bad because in my opinion "cryptoworld" should be accesible to all people under same terms...

We have seen clearly that neither China nor South Korea did not effect markets much. Even if there were some effects, we came back to the effected area.

it is not the end of ICO, it is the beginning of AirDrops which gained ICO's popularity for its own free advertisements for their unknown businesses.

Hi, guys, there will be no future without ICO. I know a lot of amazing projects which raised money during ICO. Governments of all the countries need to assist to ICO, but not ban it. A good example - Confideal ICO. It is supported by the Blockchain Association of Ireland, and this product allows you to carry out quick, cheap and safe transactions without the participation of third parties. The platform is based on Ethereum Smart Contracts that are optimized for use by non-programmers.  Check it - these guys made smth very special!

Things are getting more and more complicated for ICOs due to government interference. Now South Korea announces a ban on ICOs but the industry is working to avoid it.

"Last week, South Korean regulators said they would ban all initial coin offerings. They are imposing a “prohibition on all forms of ICOs.” However, they have not implemented this ban yet. Now, startups in the area are pushing back against the impending ban.
Leaders in the regional blockchain industry have said an ICO ban has no legal grounding. A Forbes article clarified, “Local crypto industry leaders argue that the ban is legally groundless. They fear overregulation will push local talent and currency to more welcoming jurisdictions like Switzerland, Singapore and Japan.”
