Considering the high level of scam associated with ICOs presently, many investors are at risk of loosing their investments. Bounty hunters like us are not spared as we may be rendering free services to some scammers and also risking our personal data.

I suppose a regulatory body be set up to audit the ICO process and the founders, and if anything goes wrong or should the project fail, they will be liable. This will reduce drastically investors risk and also keep scammers away. What do you think?

Of course 100%, ICO's should be regulated. What happened last 2017 really put a dirt in the faces of investors due to scam projects and it was not really good sight to watch. Great thing that STO's and IEO's is now happening and that provides the security that us, investors needed when participating in these startups. A project that has one of the guys who founded Pokemon has their cryptocollectible project in an IEO and it sold out, easy. A reputable name and sales to back the project up will definitely help. Though ICO's are not really dead, they're still worth to look at as long as you DYOR.

IEO is everything ICO should have been. Safer, more reliable, better controlled. There is no longer a need to sling your personal data at hundreds of different providers, hoping to gain "exclusive" access to an ICO.
