ICO Marketing: Turning Investors Into Influencers: Kate Vasylenko (Video)

A recent C|Net primer on Bitcoin noted that “Blockchain technology is changing the face of everything from banking, to payments, to security.” 

It adds, “It's the way these crypto projects, currencies and companies raise money that's attracting the most attention from startups and established companies alike.”

Given the volatility of Bitcoin investments, warnings from regulators about the investment risks and concerns about the use of the currency for money laundering and other criminal activities, some may be tempted to write off Bitcoin. 

That would be a mistake.  Underscoring its view that Bitcoin will be part of the financial future, on February 16, Switzerland's financial watchdog announced new guideines for companies looking to launch "initial coin offerings," or ICOs, which offer a new path for entrepreneurs, startups and corporations to finance their businesses.
