 ICO

An ICO or Initial Coin Offering is the initial offering of a digital cryptographically secure
piece of data (a digital token) created on a blockchain as part of a decentralised
software protocol. An ICO is a popular way to raise money for a new project/start up
by distributing a percentage of the initial currency supply to early supporters of the
relevant project. Unlike conventional crowdfunding, however, tokens are usually
tradable via online exchanges. This liquidity helps attract investors, and means that
the overall ICO process has similarities both with conventional crowdfuning and with
an Initial Public Offering
