Interesting!
As long as your token is a utility you are fine.
If the tokens are actually securities (like the DAO according to the SEC), then you need to go through a similar process as IPO.

Many companies sell their tokens from Gibraltar and Switzerland.

another question does the incorporation country of the ICO affects your decision to invest?
I would think they are other countries which ICO companies can incorporate their entity, what are the factors you would consider?

actually this rule will have some impact on the ICO momentum coming out of Singapore. I have seen alot of interest from Singapore but as Ranih put it, many have to rethink on their token strategy....

Hi all,

Singapore has been the preferred country for companies launching ICOs in the recent months, however the central bank just came out with a notification:
http://www.mas.gov.sg/News-and-Publications/Media-Releases/2017/MAS-clarifies-regulatory-position-on-the-offer-of-digital-tokens-in-Singapore.aspx

how would this impact ICOs from Singapore go forward? Which other jurisdiction is "ICO-friendly"??

Would ICOs from Singapore be the preferred campaign in future? However it would mean disclosure of the investors.... would you still do it?

Looking forward to your views.
