Prediction: this thread is going to be a honeypot for ICO advertisers and bad opinions.
No ICO has had a real utility in my opinion. Some smart contracts and some cryptocurrencies do seem to be getting there, but not the ICOs I'm afraid.
- DennisP 8y agoI guess "real utility" is subjective but based on the comments here, a fair number of projects held an ICO and then delivered what they promised.
- RIMR 8y agoA fair number of people have also left a casino with a great deal more than they entered with. That doesn't mean casinos deliver on a promise of profit.
- camjohnson26 8y agoHe's talking about utility not profit.
- DennisP 8y agoThe question was "is there any ICO that actually delivered what it promised?" The answer is obviously yes. If you were to ask "are startups who run ICOs more likely to succeed than fail" then of course the answer is no. But that's a reality also faced by angel investors and VCs. You might also ask whether ICO token prices on average went up or down, but that has nothing to do with OP's question at all.
- the_clarence 8y agoDon't just read the comments. Go and find out what the product is about. Hell, try to use it. You will see what I'm talking about. It's fluff.
- xtracto 8y agoI think golem.network actually has some tangible product right now.
