I'm saying this because it is real. Just imagine, Ethereum has built many tokens inside the blockchain and many people launched ICOs which most of them are totally weird and fake, but some of them are not. People usually like to trade their ethereum and turn it into a token where it can be determined as a "future asset" and it cannot be sold until they had listed on an exchange. The companies who launched the ICOs are usually selling the ethereum which gotten from their ICO in droves, in which it can make a dump on the Ethereum market.
That's the purpose of ethereum to create a platform where developers can create and develop a crypto to be able to use for services or as a product. The one we should blame is those developers who wanted to earn fast cash and scam other people by creating fake ICOs are trash coins.
