Good post!

But posts like this tend to not let the real ICOs shine.

Notice how the designer of the EOS blockchain didn't even want to call his an ICO?

A lot of developers choose not to be associated with the hype, just as you do.

I think the importance is buying into a coin you really trust for the long term.

Litecoin has been around for a while, and is always a good investment. But that's not to say that some of these ICOs or new coins won't take off just as Ethereum, LTC, BTC did.

We must also remember that although the landscape of crptocoins has changed, and things are speeding up, it still takes years for a foundation to be laid and for the groundwork of a world-changing coin to be built; not to mention trusted.

The importance here is do your own research, and be in it for the long run.

If you just have money signs in your eyes, you'll probably end up broke.

The cryptocurrency land is the most innovative and free space ever created in the history of mankind, it must be appreciated and protected. We shall not let the trolls have their way!~
