Looks like a ploy to present themselves as exclusive. But really, if it all it takes is to enter your email on the website to get entered into the whitelist, I do not see how this will really stop people from signing up to the ICO. Only proper AML procedures can result in a vetting process. Then again,,, who will be in charge of auditing that vetting process? Looks like ICOs really have to reinvent themselves in the face of all the Chinese and South Korean bans!
