You mean ICO will be regulated and most of the new initial coins offer will be stop or if you did not meat up to the standard your coins will not be listed. I have find out that most of the regulatory agency are control by government and politicians who are almost the same with scamming ICO owners! No different, just the same.

It is jut ICO's from the us and not from other places in the world. maybe it will be a good move for us government to regulate the ICO's there to inform their countrymen about the ICO's projects and aims.

If that SEC US Gov can prevent the scammers, hurray! How I wish to see the bitcointalk.org scammers put in jail. Specially the scumbag ICO scammers. I wish all ICO must go screening. I think all BTCTalk mods will also participate by screening and banning all ICO starters without any proof of their business model.

The only affected icos are those scam icos who does not really have a real project and intends to run with the accumulated funds. I think that is a good move because there are lots of uninformed investors in icos who throw their money in any ico that comes their way. investors really needed to be educated in dealing with icos.

I think you do not have to blame ico, because of the ico it's a real project, but it all depends on how you look first into it, to make sure it's real or just play. So all that must be viewed first into it before you to invest in it.

US citizens are not already allowed to participate in most ico, these laws are good for them, they might be more careful with their money.

I strongly agree
Many ICOs lead to fraud without explaining the follow-up on real projects and only spreading the purely profitable dreams that ultimately have to lose a lot of money  Grin Grin Grin

This will be great for investors and developers. They will avoid many ICO scams as there are many ICO's that do not have specific information to develop. If that happens we can invest safely without worrying much and crypto will rapidly developing
If the SEC investigates aggressively, I don't think ICOs still alive because in past time have many project scam with huge money. The DAO is subject get attention from SEC, maybe have big change about rules create ICOs crowdsale in future, as stocks.

This is already completely irrelevant at this point as many ICOs are only available for non-US residentials. To be able to participate in the ICO, you should agree to their terms which includes you being a 'non-US citizen' and only then will you be able to coins. Not sure how it would go if US residents try using VPN services to buy from ICOs but it would still be a big risk if they do so.

Yeah you're correct. Investors should have enough knowledge to the particular ICO. If they don't have a knowledge and information about the project, for sure there is a possibility that the project is scam. So I prefer to all of us that before we invest, make sure that this project is really promising and real project.

Very scary when talking about scam, but I think there is no system that set it clearly except from america and china. Many Russian and Ukrainian ico have no obstacles and we never know the purpose is actually good or not.

But I as a monitors can only be neutral and vigilant, in the free market even this anonymous market is still worth doing and only utilize the same trust as other internet business.

Ok now we know this won't stop ICO's, only US citizens won't be included in this.
But how we can be sure in anything when we are anonymous most of our times? I believe this will create even better conditions for ICO's and now they will become more scammy, because they will be lunched form third world countries.. Roll Eyes

This will not make much difference. Companies that want to run ICO will move to singapore, japan or switzerland and people who want to invest will use VPN's.

Like it was already said, most ICOs had a "No US citizens" clause in it already, but due to the nature of cryptos it is easy and safe enough to get around that as a US citizen if you know what you are doing.

Exactly. Every single ICO I've looked in recently stated "No US citizens"
So, nothing new..
I'm not sure what the USA Government is thinking though..
