According to Coinschedule start-ups raised $6.6 billion so far in 2018 through ICOs. It confirms the appetite for new projects to use this fundraising structure rather than the more traditional ways used in order to attract financing.

Whether this is a good or a bad thing is not the point of this article and we should anyway be soon getting more details from regulatory bodies on this topic.
