Hello everybody!
Many Russian startups are trying not to focus on the fact that they are from Russia. According to legend, this could stop a potential European investor. Europeans, be honest, is this meaningful to you? Really interesting

Let's talk about ICO investments, to be quiet clear
I don't understand the correlation of European investors to Russian starts up. Why would European investors simply stop on investing because the ICO is run by Russian? Care to explain what legendary story you got? This for me is just a conspiracy theory and nothing more. I guess you're trying to put some political colours but sad to say crypto has no boundaries.
Perhaps you have a little investment experience so you think so. If the team is from Russia and the project is launched in Russia, then at 99% it is a fraud. If you analyze the projects that were carried out in Russia, then you will see that all of them turned out to be scammers, only a few turned out to be legal. You can go to the Russian section and see how many fraudulent projects. Or ask any Russian-speaking person ,he trusts a team from Russia. The answer will be - no.
You can also read this article. It describes how Russian projects after collecting money buy expensive cars for themselves, divide money, but no one is involved in the project, and so on. You will be interested to read.
