There are a lot of ICOs in Finance industry ..some legit, others are only for money grab. Wouldn't it be safer for us investors to not oppose regulation then? It seems inevitable as shown in recent news on diff governments announcing their stand on it.  Huh

Real businesses and investors surely welcome a regulated environment because it is more predictable.

Now many smart governments regulate crypto scene and these pioneers will attract the cream of the ICOs (and capital!). Taiwan, Switzerland, Japan, Malta, just to name a few.

Real investors and ICOs looking for sustainable business growth and not collect-$-and-run are looking forward to regulation to happen.

There is a new wave of token backed assets that are just waiting to have ICOs built for them and these projects will undoubtedly be classed as securities. For them to be able to launch they must seek regulatory compliance to be legitimate. Regulation is not a bad thing in theory, it just depends how it is applied that matters. if regulated correctly, scam ICOs will find it difficult to operate because of the vetting processes that regulation will bring.

People like to talk about totally 'free market' without understanding the role of government in economics. May I suggest that regulation is necessary if we want this market to become reality for most of the people in the world. Therefore I don't see any problem in new projects working on becoming legitimate...

Will be a lot riskier to own non-compliant tokens in the near future. I'm looking into finance-related ICOs that follows regulatory reqts within their country of jurisdiction.
