About the eBook

Delving into the comprehensive evolution of Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), this innovative book traces their origins and transition into modern forms such as Security Token Offerings, Initial Exchange Offerings, Initial DEX Offerings and Non-Fungible Tokens. It provides an in-depth analysis of the factors behind the appeal of ICOs, the complex ecosystem surrounding them, and the key developments within the blockchain and cryptocurrency space.



Countering common misconceptions such as equating ICOs with fraud, Dmitri Boreiko emphasizes the need for robust regulation in the field. Chapters explore the economics of ICOs, offer practical research guidance and navigate the complexities of ICO regulation. The book concludes by highlighting emerging mechanisms in blockchain fundraising, focusing on the increased security, transparency, and flexibility of newer mechanisms.



Concise and incisive, this is a timely read for economics students focusing on ICOs and blockchain applications, as well as fintech more broadly. Written in an accessible style, blockchain practitioners, investors and entrepreneurs, and start-ups in tech will also find this to be an interesting read.
