Q: What's an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) / Token Sales?

Read the free excerpt titled ICOs: Magic Beans and Bubble Machines from the book Attack of the 50 Foot Blockchain by David Gerard.

Token offerings have been around a while, but kicked off enormously in the second bubble. The usual pretext is crowdfunding, but in practice the tokens are just traded on the exchanges as commodities. The creators then cash in. The value proposition for buyers is, as for the creators, easy money in a bubble.

-- David Gerard (Attack of the 50 Foot Blockchain / ICOs: Magic Beans and Bubble Machines)
