Initial Coin Offerings also called ICO’s have been rising in demand quite rapidly. In 2017 it raised a whopping $5.6 billion which is unbelievable feats.

Traditional ICO, tokens or coins work by an interested investor purchasing tokens or coins from a company using popular cryptocurrencies such as ETH or BTC. It is similar to buying shares, however you gain access to the particular service too in this regard.

As Josh Stein, CEO of tokenized securities startup Harbor says about STO’s “The best analogy is the transition from email to snail mail. You can type out a written communication, print it out, put it in an envelope, address it, send it, and wait two to three days. Or you could hit send on an email. The content is the same, but by putting an electronic wrapper around it, you can send it faster, cheaper, and easier.”
