Topic: Yet another ICO ban, this time probably from Japan :( - page 3. (Read 1826 times)
Although you don't want to cause FUD, the article itself is doing it since, in economics sciences, the students are taught that the economy is based on a percentage of speculation. That kind of news affects the price of bitcoin's and, subsequently, of every other altcoin. I really hope Japan doesn't ban ICOs

Any views on this and on ETH price?
I thought they will just regulate it? does someone influences these Countries? like they are all deciding to completely ban icos from thinking to regulating these ICOs. These ICO bans will help the REAL ICOs to gain some attention for their projects and also to gain support from the community. I don;t see any problem on this news. It will be a problem if every country in the world bans ICO that would be a bigger problem. https://www.forbes.com/sites/elaineramirez/2017/10/15/japan-ico-ban-indiesquare-higashi/#698d1d38213e

That’s given the news might be a bad possibility or not, it is still a FUD for me without the proper legal action by the Japan authorities. If there is probability that it come to a banning of ICO, I don’t think bitcoin be affected to it or it might given more increases than everyone stating it would decrease.
Well, I do not think ICO ban is priority of many Government around the world at this time. There are many things going on that is of utmost importance in the scheme of things. We have security issues and the earlier the World embrace blockchain the better for all of us.
Even if this does happen we will be fine down the road. This will keep the crypto community from getting over diluted with fake projects and more attention will be brought to the actual legit projects that are innovating.
Honestly, I can see why governments would see ICOs as harmful. A lot of them are just disguised scams. I just hope that governments don't outright ban them like china did. Some projects are legitimate and beneficial. I wish governments would regulate ICOs instead of just banning them
I'm for it. If this means that it can get rid of all the scam ICO's that have come and go I say continue the bans.
There is more than enough projects that have been around the block to invest in. I think these bans might be good for cryptocurrencies because money will flow into these established projects instead of new ico's that can possibly end up being scams.
Ico's should be well regulated , Some projects are scam and should be banned from collecting money from investors. Shitcoins and tokens are sprouting almost everyday to collect Millions of dollars then sadly turned out to be scam.

I suggest you to read article first before posting it here with such article. But half or more people replying here will do same as you and will talk only of your bombastic title.
Very good, ban crappy ICOs and make way for the real projects!
airdrops should probably also be banned from Bitcointalk because most of them are super scammy

This isn't necessarily a bad thing. ICOs get banned because they aren't regulated and people are abusing them. In the future they might be allowed again, but under certain regulations. This is good for the people who want to invest in an ICO. As things are now anyone can make an ICO and they won't be prosecuted for manipulating the market or misinforming investors. There has to be rules for these kinds of things, or else investors are going to get exploited until there's no more interest in investing.
ICO should be filtered there's a need for some restrictions on implementing it, the most legit ICO canake it by applying it or such admins who will choose which qualify the only downside is admins may abuse their power for their benefits.

I think everybody is trying to keep the ETH price down! They will not succeed.
Yes, I agree that. For my point, All ICO ban is just like aa drama, at end they null to prove anything, there merely failed. They never and ever control the blockchain technology. 
It's maybe because a lot of scammers are running away with investors money. Ico's should be regulated by someone or it will be thousands of scam ico's and looser projects.
Just another regulation part !
Its import to controll this guys , to mouch scam out there !

Most of the news are just fake news to effect the price of BTC. I wouldn't trust them until I see an official announcement.

I think 1 thing is for sure - market cant go on like this, there is SCAM ICOS and there will be if there is no regulation. Thus governments cant ignore it for ever.
I would hope that at one point crypto community could came together and make their own "institution" which could give some kind of rating for ICOS , which can give you idea how safe this ICO is.
Well, every month happen something.. probably with enough time this will be like the story of the child that warn about the wolf..
