Scam projects and fraudsters are negative effecting on cryptos.
ICOs are not killing crypto, scammers are. Fcuk'in vermin.
I couldn't agree more. Once the money started flowing in the greed went into overdrive and many people started doing all sorts of things to take advantage of it.

Im dissagree, because ICO is a one way to collect needed funds for project. Developers and promoters must receive money.
i want to join ICO's all the time but it dont mean i am a supporter of it.its so risky and harmful for investors but how they can ban this shit?this is imposibble because people getting rich faster and there will be always a some ICO
They can close it if they want but it will still continue.
ICO's are not really killing crypto but more like an efficient way to focus on one service using one coin.
It cannot be handled all by bitcoin, ETH or Waves. This tokens are a good way to extract some funds that could create a better service which could not be provided by the currencies mentioned.
Projects leaning on them are slow and no merchant want to give in.
It is just that, there are a lot who are making it an easy way to earn money by scams. We should protect the ICO's from that not protect ourselves from all the ICO.

Crypto is a international currency and there is a lot of big whales which have pretty big experience then they are trying their logical tricks to apply to make the market down like they are trying to instill fear in the people about the crypto currency with some bad news and after that with some good news they can gain a big profit.
Ethereum needs big players to launch ICOs, not the newbies with no credentials whatsoever but few programmers. Business can not survive without customers, programmers can create a tool but not revenue. White Papers are just templates.
Once the blockchain technology is mature enough to attract real business. that's when the crypto coins take off.

SEC charges first ICO company with fraud:
https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2017-185-0
Washington D.C., Sept. 29, 2017—
The Securities and Exchange Commission today charged a businessman and two companies with defrauding investors in a pair of so-called initial coin offerings (ICOs) purportedly backed by investments in real estate and diamonds.
The SEC alleges that Maksim Zaslavskiy and his companies have been selling unregistered securities, and the digital tokens or coins being peddled don't really exist. According to the SEC's complaint, investors in REcoin Group Foundation and DRC World (also known as Diamond Reserve Club) have been told they can expect sizeable returns from the companies' operations when neither has any real operations.

I still think that ICO can be recovered from this mire of controversies. China's decision to put some regulation in the ICOs offered in the market is just right. And now news that South Korea will do the same is another step to clean ICO of scam projects. When all these are done, ICOs will become not as controversial as it is right now.
Recent news of the imminent closer of many Chinese exchanges is the direct result of them dealing in ICOs, I've been shocked for the longest time other countries have done so, allowing ICO's to fly under regulators radar, however its only just a matter of time.
Totally agree! I was also shocked! And people like Buterin should avoid lending their faces to some ICOs!
I don't think so.
ICOs are a big crypto achievement.
ICOs are very popular and are spreading crypto among the public.

Etherum is a form of the success of a cryptocurrency. many people are then interested in trying to invest in cryptocurrency because they are first acquainted with etherum. seeing etherum is a form of an ICO that successfully gets crowdfunding from many people. so i think ico does not kill crypto
lol just now ICO does not have such an impact anymore because so many shitcoin are holding ICOs, do not talk about Ethereum it is a successful coin now we are talking about coins that held ICO in this year, which is successful only slightly. 
Without ICOs, there would be no Ethereum. Without Ethereum, the crypto market wouldn't have grown so fast. It's attracting a lot of capital right now.
You're right, ICO are ethereum provider. Anyway, we can benefit them also and still there's a big rewards in joining their campaign.And some ICOs are successfully launch, but some of them are vanished in the middle of their campaign(scam).

There is no shocking news in that as long as the ICO gets banned from the whole world. Lols. That would be real shock though.
Well, getting the ICO under regulators radar doesn't mean that it's of no use. But it is being done for us, so that we the people won't get spammed as the investors of ICO. Chinese plan is the same as far as roumors are seen on the internet. If the ICO becomes regulated everywhere then it will create a system of justice where we can invest the money with full confidence as we will be knowing that every bit of ICO is true and legit from now onwards. No spams, and only the profit that we can grab after successful implantation of the particular ICO.
Well Icos are and will always be a part of the ecosystem, there are a lot coins wich havent been live due to lack of funds, sure some coins did raised more money they need, but its because people believe and trust into the coin and its potencial. Before a lot ico were live at yobit and the most of them were just shitcoins, nowadays we do see some good coins coming and good projects borning.
