Re: What to do with the Unsold Tokens?

Hi,

I've been reading about the strategy ICOs use for unsold tokens in case they do not reach their hard cap.

As far as I understand, there are a few options to be used for this scenario.

1) Unsold tokens are burned - the most common option used by ICOs. If tokens are burnt, token holders share will increase, therefore its price.

2) Unsold tokens are not burned - founders keep them. It's not a good option at the eyes of the token holders. It can be used as a personal interest.

3) Unsold tokens are airdropped - A few ICOs (eg. FundFantasy) used this strategy. As far as they see it, the token price will be decreased but will be readjusted because people will use it.


I'm not aware of any more alternatives to those three. What are your thoughts? Would you use option 1 or go for the other two options? Would you come up with another possibility?


Thank you very much.


Mostly some ICO project developer,they burn the unsold token in order to have a great and marketable product especially when they reached the hard caps,and thats  mostly the needs of some investor and participants of thats saying project,in order to protect the price value of the given token and would not turn someday into a shit coin,otherwise some ICO project developer they recycle some unsold token or they given it as a part of airdrop.
