It is a way for companies or projects to raise funds for their cryptocurrency or blockchain-based ventures by selling tokens to investors. Essentially, it's like a crowdfunding campaign, but instead of receiving a stake in the company or a product, investors receive tokens or coins that can be used on the platform or traded on exchanges. ICOs have become a popular alternative to traditional venture capital funding, but they come with risks such as scams, lack of regulation, and market volatility.

I've seen some projects that looked promising but turned out to be duds. Have you participated in any ICOs, or are you just starting to explore this space?

Those ICO facts are pretty eye-opening! I got into crypto a while back and jumped on a couple of ICOs, hoping to get in early on something exciting. It was a mix of thrill and nerves. Some projects turned out great, while others were definitely questionable. It really highlights how important it is to do your homework before investing.

I found https://figment.io/staking/protocols/solana/ for Solana staking recently, and it’s been a cool way to earn while I hold my tokens. Solana’s platform feels secure and efficient, which is nice after the wild ride with ICOs. It's a more stable way to get involved without all the risk that comes with ICOs.
