According to wikipedia, "Initial coin offering (ICO) is an unregulated and controversial means of crowdfunding via the use of cryptocurrency, which can be a source of capital for startup companies. In an ICO a percentage of the newly issued cryptocurrency is sold to investors in exchange for legal tender or other cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin".

As for ICO, it is not strong enough to stand as Altcoin, so it depends on Altcoin. Currently there are many ICOs that are the network of ETH. When a Cryptocurrency business starts making money through the ICO, they usually create a plan for a project-specific report, what the project needs to do after completion, how much money is needed. To make a joint venture, how much of the project's pioneers token will keep themselves, how much money is accepted, and how long the ICO will run the campaign. Cool

ICO or Initial Coin Offering is mean crowdsale where start ups collect money by sell their token, which similar with IPO (Initial Public Offering) in stock market, but different thing between ICO with IPO is ICO does not have regulation , then usually no minimum to participate, but in IPO usually there minimum amount and some big investor only can participate. Because no regulation that why too many ICO now.

Initial coin offering (ICO) is an unregulated and controversial means of crowdfunding via use of cryptocurrency,[1] which can be a source of capital for startup companies.[2] In an ICO a percentage of the newly issued cryptocurrency is sold to investors in exchange for legal tender or other cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin.

Early token sales were held by Mastercoin in July 2013 and Ethereum and Karmacoin in 2014, but "mainstream" ICOs began with messaging app developer Kik in September 2017. By November 2017 there were around 50 offerings a month. ICOs can be used for a wide range of activities, ranging from corporate finance to charitable fundraising to outright fraud.[22] The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has warned investors to beware of scammers using ICOs to execute "pump and dump" schemes, in which the scammer talks up the value of an ICO in order to generate interest and drive up the value of the coins, and then quickly "dumps" the coins for a profit.

ICO or Initial Coin Offering is way for start up to sell their token to the the investor, they collect money from the investor then they give their token. This start ups collected money for development of their project. But now too many ICO failed and the price of token drop after listing in exchange because some ICO does not have working product, only plan in the white paper that not sure can be reality. So important to make analysis and research before investing in any ICO.

In my opinion ICO is an extension of Initial Coin Offering, ie Initial is the same as Early or First, Coin here is defined as Token / Coin. And Offering has a Bid meaning. So it can be concluded the meaning of the word ICO is the First Coin Offer before the coin is published to a free market.

ICO was first performed in 2013, the first coin to use ICO method is coin MasterCoin (OMNI). A Cryptocurrency like bitcoin has a system like blockchain, which has garnered many tokens before the release of coin in July 2013 through the Bitcointalk.org Forum ...
And Ethereum (ETH) coin is the most successful using the ICO method to date, even the current price of Ethereum / BTC is 0.0545 BTC or in IDR worth approximately Rp 4,000,000.

Its initial coin offering i suggest you stay away from ICOs because most of the ICOs nowadays are just scam projects,If you love your precious portfolio be warned.

You warned him to STAY AWAY from ICO. I guessed your investment in one of the ICO failed. ICO are trending nowadays this is another version of IPO in stocks. There are always risk whether ICO, IPO or an old coin. If we want to earn money we need to take the risk.

Companies conduct ICO in order to attract investments to their project. During this ICO they introduce a fixed number of new units of crypto-currencies that are bought by investors at a reduced price

that is the sales made by the project and this will refer much to the long-established altcoin / bitcoin and this will also respond to the coin that has coin offering, but still running the sale and purchase transactions in the existing market.

ico is that we send valuable coins to the ico project team, then the team takes the funds to develop the project as well as sends the coins to us. Finally, the team will speculate on the price of the coins so that our investors can make money.
