SXSW 2019
The Hottest ICOs. Where Are They Now?
Description:
It's been 2 years since the ICO/Crypto boom of 2017. Over $5 Billion was raised through ICOs in 2017, and almost twice as much in just the first 6 months of 2018. Many of these were built on whitepapers with promises to disrupt entire industries. Well, where's the disruption? How are those blockchain projects working out?
Find out if the all the money that was fed to this industry has produced real results or just boosted Lamborghini sales to ICO fraudsters. Our panelists have real-world experience in this often criticized industry and can answer these questions for anyone curious to know if the boom has produced any real disruption.
Join our distinguished panel of crypto-investment experts to discuss the best (and WORST) ICOs of the last 2 years.
