Welcome to this Initial Coin Offering course! What we’re going to be doing in this course is guiding you through the process of understanding on a theoretical and practical level, how Initial Coin Offerings work, as well as, how to differentiate between a good and bad Initial Coin Offering. Helping you to get involved with an ICO with your full understanding, rather than going in blind.
Welcome to this lecture in the course, here I want to give you an overview of Initial Coin Offerings by explaining the idea behind them with you. We’re going to talk over many points of ICO’s at surface level within this lecture, so as we move onto more advanced lectures in this course, you have that surface level knowledge of how ICO’s work which you can build upon.
Welcome to this lecture in the course where we’re going to be discussing the history of initial coin offerings. We feel it’s something important for you to understand, as by understanding the origins of something, in this case ICO’s, it’ll give you a crisper understanding of the subject matter. It’s not going to be a long lecture, just one where we’re going to get straight to the point with you, and provide you all the information you need to understand how ICO’s have evolved to date.
You should know by now that we’re completely transparent in this course, we don’t sell a false promise, we clearly mention there are scams out there in the ICO world, that’s the reason we’re here in this course. We want to help you evaluate ICO’s, and ensure you invest in the successful projects, not the ones that sell false promises on the next big thing.
Welcome to this lecture, which is going to be an interesting one for sure! What I want to discuss with you here is the difference between Initial Coin Offerings (ICO’s), and Initial Public Offerings (IPO’s). Both sound similar, both have similarities, but couldn’t be more different in there deployment. But by comparing IPO’s to ICO’s, which have been around for far longer, you’ll be able to draw similarities from how ICO’s gained inspiration from IPO’s, which we see playing out today. So lets dive into this lecture on; Initial Coin Offerings VS Initial Public Offerings.
In this lecture I want to highlight some of the most popular websites to keep tabs on, if you want to keep up to date on all Initial Coin Offerings; Past, Present, and Future. Here we go:
Explore the business side of cryptocurrency investments, demystify CEO success rates, spot ICO scams, and analyze teams, market size, competition, token sale structures, and a basic valuation framework.
In this lecture we analyze the success rates of ICOs over a the period of a few months. We look underneath the surface and debunk the myth that most ICOs are successful.
Explore the stages of an ICO project—from idea to white paper to an established company to a working prototype—and assess risk to choose an ICO aligned with your risk tolerance.
Learn to spot ICO scams by verifying founder transparency, company registration, domain ownership, LinkedIn references, escrow arrangements, and open-source code, then perform due diligence to protect your investment.
Identify the essential elements of a strong white paper, including executive summary, problem, solution, roadmap, team, market, and token use.
Analyze competitors to identify differentiation in features, pricing, and geography, evaluate market penetration and entry barriers, and use white papers and third-party reports for informed ICO investment.
Evaluate initial coin offering business models by asking key questions about the underlying system, decentralization, token function, and the economic model to determine value for token holders and outside value.
Explore how token holder rights differ from traditional shareholders, including payment, creation, and governance rights, with practical guidance to review terms and research credible sources.
Explore how ICOs can be classified as securities under the Howey test and SEC guidance, with country-specific rules and accredited investor considerations.
Review the business aspects of ICOs, analyze white papers and teams, perform competitive analysis and market sizing, assess token valuation and holder rights and legal implications, then preview technical aspects.
Welcome to this lecture in the course where we’re going to be discussing the Go To Market Strategy of Initial Coin Offering projects. It’s crucial to understand how projects aim on penetrating the market, because even if the project is the next best one since Ethereum, if it’s not clear how it aims on getting to market, then no one will know about it and use it. Which will result in poor performance of its token, and potential collapse of the project.
In this lecture of the course I want to help you analyse the popularity of an Initial Coin Offering, of course the popularity, or lack of popularity, isn’t a clear signal to buy or avoid an ICO. But what it does do, is help you understand just how widely known an ICO is. Which when combined with the details we’ve taught in this course, will help you make a more justified decision as to whether or not you should invest in that specific project you had in mind.
Welcome to this lecture in the course! What we’re going to be discussing in this lecture is the PR, and Branding machines behind Initial Coin Offering. If they even have one! Once again as with the last lecture, a wildly successful PR Campaign, or lack of, isn’t a clear signal to buy or avoid an ICO. But what it does do, is help you understand how widespread this project is or isn’t, and if they have a clear brand for their project, not thought of the day before their ICO. Understanding the PR, and Branding of an ICO Project combined with the details we’ve taught in this course, will help you make a more justified decision as to whether or not you should invest in that specific project you had in mind.
In this lecture of the course we’re going to be discussing signalling, and how this can aid you into making a decision as to if you should invest in an Initial Coin Offering or not. There are two distinct areas that need to be understood when it comes to ICO Signalling. One, Investors. Two, Partners.
Distinguish ERC20 tokens from non-ERC20 protocol tokens on the Ethereum blockchain; asset tokens use predefined interfaces, while protocol tokens power currencies like ether and networks like ripple.
Learn the essential differences between keeping funds on an exchange, a software wallet, and a hardware wallet, and why owning private keys matters for security.
Learn how private keys generate public keys, sign transactions, and secure ether on the network, where addresses do not store ether and miners verify signatures before adding blocks.
Discover why ICO participation through an exchange fails: the exchange owns your funds and private keys; transfer ether to your own wallet (MetaMask, MyEtherWallet) before joining the crowdsale.
Obtain ether for the test-net by using a faucet to interact with a token, then use MetaMask on the Rinkeby test network and share your address to receive funds.
Learn how a crowdsale contract runs on the Ethereum blockchain, exchanging ether for tokens automatically without middlemen. It encodes price rules and time limits for token delivery.
Interact with a simple crowdsale contract on the Rinkeby test network using MetaMask and Remix to send ether and receive ERC-20 tokens.
Identify phishing in ICOs by recognizing deceptive emails, last-minute address changes, and fake websites; verify crowdfunding addresses and URLs on credible channels to protect funds.
Compare how token sale instructions appear for car taxi, Raiden, Enjin, DFS, EOS, and Filecoin ICOs, and learn to participate by copying crowdsale contract address and sending ether via MetaMask.
Evaluate the MVP and product readiness of car taxi, Raiden, Enjin, FileCoin, and EOS by reviewing apps, GitHub activity, and roadmaps for ICO viability.
Explore Raiden's off-chain scaling and open source infrastructure on Ethereum, compare EOS and FileCoin roadmaps, and examine developer previews, audits, and SAFT terms for ICO investing.
