I'm new to ICOs. I've bought into about 8 now and some release the coins right away, others I have to wait until the end of the ICO to get my coins, and ICOs I have to wait several weeks after the end of the ICO to get my coins (so they say).
Can someone please explain why they do that? Why not just give everyone the coins they buy right away, like some ICOs? And why does it take weeks after the end of an ICO to send coins? I don't get it.
Some icos or projetcs can make the system to process automatically like what already happened if you are trying to use the smartcontract as the main contract crowdsale.
There are some reasons behind it and you can try to ask the developers regarding your curiosity
