ICO or block chain != open source. Think about a smart contract that has immutable code in it that has a bug regarding shuffling of the deck or misuse/error on financial transfer. There's nothing to think about or do...it's immutable. Once released on ethereum you're out of luck.

it is common practice now to place a function that can self-destruct the contract and start a new one, selfdestruct() is a reserved global function in Solidity, instead of criticizing blindly maybe learn more about writing smart contracts, there are unforeseen flaws in a new open source development platform no surprise there... Think about running an auction and placing bids, I can place a bid and not have the money which can only be resolved in an alley way or a court with us dollars or we can conduct a more open auction and even a blind auction with cryptography on the blockchain, it is also easier for everyone to participant globally without sacrificing the privacy of giving your card information, I don't have anything to hide but would you consider giving a financial company like Equifax your personal information a safe thing?
