ICO is a powerful and much better way to raise cash than IPO's which are riddled with too much bureaucracy and barriers to entry.
Similar story with other conventional ways of seed funding, always some politics playing out, ICO cuts through all the cronyism bullshit and pretentious posturing, among many other benefits.
ICO's are here to stay ladies and gentlemen.
Exactly! Some ICO teams are afraid to say that the main reason for their ICO is crowdfunding. But I think that it's one of the main advantages of cryptocurrencies and ICO's, cause 99.9% startups will never be listed through the IPO, because of their high cost and other barriers.
