RE: The 3 ICOs I'm Watching this Summer
I upvoted this. it is very interesting. I think I am going to get in on the Giga Watt ICO specifically I like the idea of being able to rent the tokens out.
another ICO I am looking forward to is Unikoin Gold which starts in about 2 and a half months. I think Esports is growing exponentially and Unikrn is the only regulated and licensed sportsbook for Esports out there. the company also has a lot of reputable backers which adds to the legitimacy of the company which is important when it comes to ICO's

Interesting! I hadn't heard about Unikoin but had seen a few others with a similar goal.
The one issue I had with some of its competitors is that in the US players in eSports can bet on their own matches as it is considered "a game of skill" but fans can't bet on the games as that is gambling, so the any startup would need to be US licensed.
Based on their whitepaper it looks like Unikoin holds licenses in Australia and the Isle of Man - which is good for most of the world but will mean that US users are likely not going to be able to bet. Hopefully that changes in the future.
I do really like the investor list they have, seems like a really good team! I'll have to keep researching them!
Unfortunately America lags behind most of the world when it comes to Betting and online gambling in general. A few states do allow online gambling on some level. New Jersey has been pushing for sports betting for a while now with no success. I did recently read that the Supreme Court has agreed to hear the case sometime this year but I don't know much about the case or how eSports betting would be effected by it.
