To quote from an academic study and the commentary from a world-class economist from the article titled "Initial Coin Scams" it reads "There are now nearly 1,600 cryptocurrencies, and the number continues to rise. It is time to start recognizing their issuers' utopian rhetoric for what it is: self-serving nonsense meant to separate credulous investors from their hard-earned savings.
