Topic: Is ICO regulation good or bad? - page 29. (Read 31583 times)
A regulation is good, most required and would strong the cryptocurrencies in the future.
I started my own similar thread about this with regards to taxes. I think we need regulations pretty bad right now or trust will start to erode in the crypto world. It's the wild wild west out here and half the new tokens/coins coming out are pyramids schemes if not outright scams. Governments are getting antsy about people not paying taxes on gains. Crackdowns are incoming hard in every country and will continue unless we get infront of the train and do some regulating.
i think regulation is good for the health development of ico, though i cant participate in ico due to it and already missed several very promising ones, i will never willing to see scams fulfill my sight and run to invest
i think its good and we are going to need it in thw future. if we want ico to be accepted, altcoin and all abot cryptocurrency we do need a regulation that makes all of them clear
Regulation will also protect investors from being scammed by faked developers. ICO regulation by government will not reduce the numbers of ICO , however it will increase more ICOs. When ICO is regulated with good standard for start up to raise funds, legalization and other govt administrative requirements, there are more inverstors who are attracted to the model of investation. I hope there will be a country that will be pioneer for that.
There are fake projects on the market, a regulation may be good.
We have to be realistic here and many people have been scam through ico investment. My friend that bought some tokens last June could not get it fund back uptill now and it is very unfortunate. people will just seat with their computer in their rooms and be pumping projects out daily in other to scams investors. Governments regulate ico projects should be something we should all support if we like the survival of cryptocurrencies market.
I agree. Some regulations does not hurt to much ICO. Somebody want money and for this start massive PR - usual scam. But dark side of the moon - government will want to get some profit by taxes and anything else

Soon there will be decentralized ICO on komodo Platform. It will be the future of ICO. the first dICO will be Monaize https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.22486909
It would be interesting to see how dICO will play out.
It's much too late for you to sell the coin for a nice profit. You should just keep the coins on something for a few months so you could get rewarded later.It would be interesting to see how dICO will play out.

It's a good thing. If we won't regulate ICO then more and more scamcoin will appear and rob people's money in the end and also ruining cryptos image. Blockchain is an awesome tech but if there are more shitcoin than legit coins therefore it can possibly hurt bitcoins reputation that might make people think that investing in ICO is nothing but a scam. I am supporting it because it will lessen the risks.
There's no doubt in my mind that more and more people use ICO to swindle investors money. However, I don't think that Government regulates ICO to reduce risks for investors. This is due to of the fact that Government just wanna control your asset to collect personal income tax. 
Is not necessary something bad. But how can you be decentralised and at the same time regulated?
Am finding it hard for projects who appeared decentralised to become regulated.
Yes this would bring a great shift of billions into the community, with all of the downfalls that come with it
Here, in my opinion, it is necessary to clearly understand certain points. The decentralized implementation of the ICO does not at all mean the absolute uncontrollability and anarchy of this process. Such a representation is fundamentally wrong. Regulation of the ICO by the state can and should be to allow the identified team to adhere to this process in order to avoid the risk of fraud on their part. In this case, the state assumes the obligation to protect the rights of investors and other persons in court in case of any violations. In such regulation there is nothing wrong, there are only a number of positive moments. It is important that state bodies do not interfere with the ICO process and do not lead the process, so that in this part it remains decentralized. Then the risk of fraud will be reduced and the order will be greater, and the decentralized principle of the crypto currency will remain. Am finding it hard for projects who appeared decentralised to become regulated.

For thos who Regulate ICOs and make their ICOs just for milking cows and scamming purpose.since ICOs is involve with a lot of money.being decentralised doesnt men that you are in anonymous because ICOs is synonymous for crowdfunding and IPO for their stock.thr investors and traders of the market are regulated with the law

More and more countries are planning to regulate ICOs. China, Canada, Russia,... I think this in an development nobody can stop. Do you think it is good or bad that ICOs will be more regulated in the near future? What positive and negative influences will it probably have?
I think there will be more investors like professional managed funds or even retirement funds which will invest into ICOs. The prices for ICOs will then become even more expensive and make it more difficult to make profits for small investors.
What do you mean by ICO REGULATION? Is it about the government managing the use of tokens in a country? If that's what you're saying, then I think it is not good for small investors. The reason why China and other big countries want to ban cryptocurrencies in their country is that they want to earn a part of it. Although it will be good since scam projects will be minimized (we can not assure that scams will be gone once ICOs are being regulated by government since the project management is out of the government's control). I think there will be more investors like professional managed funds or even retirement funds which will invest into ICOs. The prices for ICOs will then become even more expensive and make it more difficult to make profits for small investors.
It's not good or bad, it's necessary. Without some form of regulation, there will be no real mainstream adoption.
oh i think the regulations exist to prevent fraudster or scammer by taking advantage of the easiness of collecting money through ICO, by that people as investors in this thing will be even safer but there's also one more thing that you need to know, by the release of the regulation, the government will also have the benefit to control the ICO and such.
It is also a good opportunity for small businesses which struggle to get loan from banks. In many countries only big and international operating companies get a loan for investment with fair conditions. In Europe you can see this in many southern states like Italy, Spain, Portugal etc. Same holds to many other countries in the world. ICOs fill a economical gap in my view. But they must be regulated.
I think it's very nice ,,, with there ico regulation ,, many people will be avoided from scam project ,,, from investor to bounty hunter

Here the ICOs are better option of the investment ( no doubt scam are involved but also legimaty also involved which is a positive factor for the investors ).I think there will be more investors like professional managed funds or even retirement funds which will invest into ICOs. The prices for ICOs will then become even more expensive and make it more difficult to make profits for small investors.
Here we can see that in the ICOs we pay money for the written data ( surity of remaining permanently is not sure because technology matters much ).
In these days making coin with any simple technology is a joke , so we can understand that how the people made coin with ICOs and getting investment for there coin .
So here it seems that it is a better thing that the government of many countries are making regualtion at the ICOs , otherwise one day only people will invest in ICOs and no one will go for the direct trading .
So here we should consider that these countries are doing good work and I don't think that it will give negative impact at the bitcoin market.
ICO regulation is good of course. But who will do the regulation? It cannot be done like one time big time. There is no entity worldwide that could put some blanket law to regulate ICOs all over the world. It has to be on a country to country basis. That is what is being done right now in few selected countries. The others are either accepting ICOs or passive about it.
it is quite possible that if the government implements an escrow system with one special altcoin they make, all payments should use the coin with strong rules so as not to have an impact on the inflation rate. If the erc20 token applies a smart contract, payments may be incurred by using a special coin or Fiat in accordance with their respective country. It's too complicated but very effective to balance the economic impact.
