I guess the countries understood that ICOs can't be successful regulated so they just left it alone. If ICO was regulatable some countries would have regulated it long time ago but not a single one has.

ICOs now being popular after several successful there is so many new ICOs appear and for me it's really killing old crypto coin like DOGE, LTC and DASH. I think ICO should be limited and managed properly.

China ban ICOs because at china have so many company use ICOs  to make money  ,it is not helpful or useful for investors ,it is not real .
I think china  ban ICOs is good news  in china ,but they ban exchanges is not good ,we need More and more exchange where we can trade crytocurrenty, crytocurrenty was born to trade is main .
I believe A good ICO have roadmap ,company ,developer team behind .. Still have a success story .
No one or anything can kill crytocurrenty, i believe that .

Yeah, but none of that stuff is "killing crypto".  You've seen the scams perpetrated daily with not only ICOs, but crypto in general, and there's no way governments aren't going to start regulating that.  It's still the wild west, but it's being that less so day by day.

Also, crypto isn't being killed by anything.  The opposite is happening, in fact.  Just look at how wildly bullish bitcoin and the altcoin scene is.  Money is flooding the market, and gov't regulation isn't going to touch that unless they outlaw crypto--and that isn't likely to happen.

That money is ponzi money.
They are here to profit period.
These are not crypto supporters.
Furthermore crypto has done nothing.
Bitcoin is barely used as intended.

Saying there is lots of pyramid scheme participants making profits does not mean the scheme coin in question is being used as intended.. Or that it is a legit scheme coin.
Let's get real.. If it's not used as a currency by non crypto nerds then it isn't one.
In other words adoption..

ETH was morphed into an ICO coin cloning platform.. Should we cheer for its success?

And we needed icos to get where we are?
Dumbest comment ever posted here. Congrats LOL

Its a double edged sword really in this spot. We needed ICOs to get to where we are as there is no way there would be 1000+ coins in circulation. So it definitely help attract tons of

people and get them interested in cryptocurrencies. However, I do agree that they just muck up the space and cause more trouble than they are worth. Despite all of that, if you

read and choose correctly, ICOs have the ability to be quite a profitable en devour

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.

I see ICO's like crowdfunding for games, in the begining people made games for fun, them business emerged and later because of all the burocracy of business people started asking for funding to make their own thing. The music industry also has a similar background, history is repeating itself, ICO's are the new crowdfunding platforms.

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.

On one hand, ICOs are taking precious market cap from what could be invested into Bitcoin.

On the other, they bring a whole new dimension to crypto that we have never seen before.

It is just such a shame they are almost always pump-and-dump scams. Undecided

I don't agree. ICOs are CHANGING crypto, the way people think at business with crypto. The world of crypto is actually getting more and more complex like that, which is the opposite of death.

It was obious but don't worry  goverment would ban crypto becouse some bad actrors will start using it.
This common in life excuses like terrorism pedofilia you don't realy need ICO to do that.
ICO is way to move arround IPO regulations - but for me this is ok people have freedom to fail at investment too.
ICOs are making harder life for BTC but same time people are greedy and want more ICO more x10 x3 ; ) in week this is casino sometimes.
