STOs may well be the future but I believe ICOs will still be ongoing. A lot of projects don't want their investors to have such control or a profit share. Think also about all those projects that don't generate profit. Projects generate profit by their own token value increasing.

Well, besides the fact that you are obviously promoting the website (perhaps it is yours?) securities are definitely a subject worth talking about.

Last year, securities were all the rage at the the conferences.
It is where the true future of crypto is because as of now, it is still all speculation.
When crypto finally gets paired with real life assets, it will give it the meat to go mainstream.
This also opens the floodgates for traditional institutional investors to flood in.

Sound great right?
BUT, looks like it will take a lot longer than expected.
The stock market in the US and in China have both collapsed and the entire global market situtaion looks scary.
Like, 2007 - 2008 scary.

since in all likelihood we are heading towards another global recession, institutional investors will stay far away from a market like crypto

It is still a new way of getting fund from investors. Although, at the initial level, it will get a lot of hype. Even if it is regulated, that does not mean it will not plummet and by the time thencrypto space becomes saturated with it, then some people will start tasking advantage of the trust investors have had in it.

I do not think that this is correct because such coins are still subject to regulation and this is not very good

Not only STOs are going to be mainstream soon but i know of many platforms that will make it easy for any company or business to launch their STO for example recently we have seen tokensale for project called Mobu that wants to be a security token platform, last year we saw blackmooncrypto and also there are many other tokenization platforms that tend to ease the process of creating and managing security tokens.

I am sorry to say this, but I feel like this STO thing will just go like ICO, it will get overhyped, everybody will talk about it and then investing on it, and then more people will try to launch as many STO as possible and then STO will down, killed by its community greediness and then dead.

I believe that the community should have tools for cleaning the cryptocurrency market.

Scammers have no place in this business and we must fight them in every ICO project

To be frank
I’m not so confident about security tokens
They are using the word security to hype away the hopes of bounty hunters and investors in the latest frauds of late 2018 and early 2019

Let’s be careful What we indulge into please

Yes i have been a fan of securities from many years and finally crypto based security projects are also being given the green signal after regulation and fulfillment of requirements by the sto project, i do see a lot of STOs coming up this year and i will love to have a portfolio of security tokens.

Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) were victims of their own success. As cryptocurrencies took the world by storm, and innovative startups raised hundreds of millions of dollars via ICOs, scammers and con artists took notice, and abused the model. The market quickly became oversaturated with nonsensical and downright fraudulent blockchain solutions that damaged the public’s trust in the model and choked out quality projects.

The solution that emerged was Security Token Offerings (STOs). STOs are cryptographic tokens fully compliant with securities laws, giving token holders a stake in the issuing entity. Security token owners are entitled to such benefits as profit-sharing, voting rights, and the ability to trade their holdings on exchanges.
