Great insight and truly relevant information for what has been happening lately. One additional point I would bring is that you are referring to Utility tokens almost exclusively because there are now a number of ICOs for Securities tokens which would be more similar to the IPO market you discussed. These are securities and this require most of the regulatory oversight and compliance that many ICOs tried to sidetrack with their Utility approach. In all I think the innovation has come from the actual protocol providing the means to handle the process of matching funds fron people interested in projects to those looking for the funds to build the project. While crowdsourcing has always been around, it needed a 3rd party to manage whether it be a web-based platform or the traditional investment bankers. The platforms built now make it more efficient from a time and cost perspective for this process and that is why I think it is a evolution that will continue.
