COBINHOOD's revenue will come from margin loan interest and ICO underwriting service. It's recommended that you can check their white paper, especially CH4 and CH6:

1. ICO underwriting - Cobinhood takes 5% or something like that.
2. Margin loans - up to 10x margin loan accumulate interest.
2.5. COB gets 50% of loaned token profit.
3. Listing fees (But, this isn't a continuous stream)
However, the funding itself is allocated in the token distribution. Whatever it says in the WP as the % to fund the development etc. However, it was said that Cobinhood didn't
necessarily need the cash to launch the project, but the ICO was necessary as part of Cobinhoods' implementation.
