Polo is US aswell and look at all the ETH tokens.
The restriction only applies to the crowdsale itself as the organisation doing it doesn't comply with the US laws.
So are US citizens not allowed to take part in the ICO?? Sure seemed that way in the article I just read....I've been reading and reading for weeks on this project and I'm not allowed to invest? What happened to decentralized?
Also is this a "not allowed" to invest or a "prevented from" investing? There's a difference......
Most ICOs don't allow US citizens to participate. It is largely due to legal requirements set up by the US to "protect" its citizen. Your IP can/will be blocked by SONM. Your best chance would be to use a VPN and participate, only if you are ready to face the consequence of your actions.
Ahh.. the perks of being in US or a US citizen
