Emma Channing, CEO of the Satis Group, a large investment group focused on the blockchain and digital finance, recently shared her opinion on the ICO market situation with Coindesk.

Emma is optimistic about the development of the ICO market in the longer term “as a funding mechanism for emerging growth companies akin to the role of high-yield debt for public companies”.

“Contrary to many in the ICO world, I do continue to see an active and important role for venture capital and incubator firms for seed and early rounds. Early-stage companies benefit from the guidance and connections provided, which balances the relative cost startups pay for the investment.”

But Emma suspects that late-stage rounds of funding, series B and C will be more and more seldom made via ICOs. For these stages other investment mechanisms will be chosen.

What will the future bring, we have yet to learn. However, with Descrow platform the startups can count on full step by step funding. It all depends on how well they will be able to prove itself.
