Should ICOs be regulated

[climatev]

You answered your examination yourself, its representing the defence from scammers. The essence of cryptocurrency nevertheless existence p2p is decentralised which is loss to be forming it hard, they buoy control the company/team that desire be behavior ICO on the other hand the currentness itself ballplayer not be contained in arrears to irresoluteness aloof as how BTC or ETH is.

[Churchp]

Of line, I recognise that various humans achieve not wish to understand almost adjustment, on the other hand this for free marketplace is many and many unsafe representing investors, many and many buncos are composed to move fast cash. Is that equitable?

[Galley]

The inevitability of punishment should be the line for which potential fraudsters in the person of the project team will not dare to cross. Therefore, it is necessary to negotiate regulation in this matter within the framework of the world community. A solution to such a global scale today is unrealistic. Questions are solved at the level of certain states. And this is regrettable. Perhaps you need to look for some other ways to solve this problem.

Of course, it is necessary to regulate the ICO sphere to revive it, but most likely the ICO sphere will not be regulated. If ICO were regulated, there would be less skams in the market

[ofcalled]

it sound that thither have to be a especial group to be capable to watch over or view a programme much as a corporation that ask for investors and sharers in charitableness huntsman causes to start target. if the propose, it is workable or not so that thither are not various juke charity programmes arriving and various trickery. which after all investors are loath to endure which outcome in releases.

Yes I agree with that. Though it is really difficult to implement since bounty hunters and investors wanted to be anonymous. The nature of Cryptocurrency is P2P which will make it more difficult to be implemented. But of course, we agree for the regulated ICO to prevent scammers.

[Bitmagister]

While it is true that the business model known as ICO seems to be in the process of disappearing, in case these came to prevail for more time I have no doubt that a stricter regulation will be indispensable in this respect, because although it is true that the intrusion of the authorities can undermine the principle of anonymity and privacy that so much interests in cryptospace, there seems to be no alternative before so much frauds that has prevailed in the market all this time.

Or we choose one thing or the other, but apparently we can not have both.

[Aniwura]

Interestingly, if ICOs are regulated, it will bring sanctity to the crypto space.
More investors will have confidence in the system and they will see the need to come in.
This will also foster the lunch of more active and working projects.

[JuanPaulo]

It should have been regulated from the very start. ICO is just a honey pot for scammers. Even up to this point there are still ICO that is coming out in the market that is not regulated and just waiting for an investor to be victimized.

There is no need for any ICO regulation, just no need to invest in new projects until they have a finished product. And then the scammers will stop conducting ICO.

It seems that some projects have already done it, and indeed the condition of the many scammers on the ico market makes the growth of the ico project very slow. even to get investors there are also many who are disturbed. but to create a product they would have to start from an initial investor and need substantial funds.

[Akagum]

Of a truth there are so many icos whose mainnaim is to defraud unsuspecting investors.
The challenge is that its difficult in most cases to identify these scam projects because the way they have packaged the scam.
I think the call for regulatory authorities is not out of place.
But my question is HOW?
My question steems from the fact that the structure of Cryptocurrency is decentralized and do not support regularization.

[cribusen]

No they should not, otherwise we will lose everything for what crypto currencies are standing for. It is bad that we have so much fraud projects, but we need to find another solution to prevent people from investing in scams.

[pushups44]

Yes, ICOs should be regulated, but the laws on how securities are defined, at least in the U.S., need to be updated. It doesn't seem to make much sense that laws drafted in the early 20th century are being applied to digital assets created today. There needs to be more regulatory clarity on cryptocurrencies, with of course some room to allow them to flourish without unnecessary government interference.

Without regulations, scammers and fraudsters start to proliferate and damage the space.

[digitalblock]

I think that the ICO is the past and the situation has changed radically IEO. And if the IEO can't prove its usefulness, then we're doomed to fail.)

[EvgenOrel]

There are regular questions about this issue. Personally, I believe that with time everyone will understand - the ICO market really needs to prepare certain rules and methods for regulating activities. Thus, it will be possible to protect the interests of investors, to attract attention and money from new participants.

[Judge-Dredd]

This is one of the few areas of crypto that regulations make sense. If a project does not perform an ICO they should be left alone.

If thats the way to retain the icos reputation I vote to become regulated,  icos is the most best investment making profits. But remind to all we need to becareful at this time investing in icos most of the project scam because of people out there want to get earn easy in the bad ways.

IEO become more popular after too many scam ICOs in 2018. To regain trust from investor, i think government regulation needed, with regulation, i am believe scam ICOs can reduced and create good climate for investor

The reputation of ICO in general is really bad, regulation will save it.
Investors are now investing in IEO, and some if they cannot invest, they buy cheap coins in the market as there are cheap coins at this period.
Maybe even the ICO has a good reputation, the government would still regulate it, to monitor the money and for them to get taxes.

[Spaffin]

In my opinion, there is no alternative to regulation of ICO. If such regulation had been introduced several years ago, now the activity of ICO would not have come to such a decline. It is a significant percentage of fraud in ICO projects that led to these projects not being trusted by investors.
