The Importance of Security in ICO Markets
As blockchain technology and Cryptocurrencies have changed the fundamental way of transacting money, ICOs have changed how companies and organizations now raise funds for themselves. By offering tokens for a price far lower than expected price in the market, firms in the blockchain sector easily raise money for their work and buyers get a chance to make profit off the future rise in token value.
The tokens distributed are backed by whitepapers which explain and claim why and how the project provides value, is valid, and thus why the value is expected to rise. This is just like a security released by a company, giving it the same characteristics — a tradable financial asset that gives the company in question money as an investment.
What Differs In The Market
Tokens offered by most companies have one major flaw: They are not declaring a stake or share in the company. The tokens’ rise or fall of value will have no effect on the funds raised. Essentially, the tokens become an asset that is no longer bind to the parent company in terms of the holder wanting the investment back (and the profit made) from the distributor.
The shroud of confusion over security tokens is worsened with legal compliances not being met, since the tokens are not shares per se and there are conflicting rulings from bodies all over the world.
