1. World’s First Reversible ICO (rICO)

Reversible ICO (rICO) is a new form of ICO proposed by LUKSO founder Fabian Vogelsteller in 2018. In a rICO, investors reserve tokens, which then are automatically purchased over a period of time (8 months). During this time, the investor can choose whenever they want to return tokens still within their reserve time at any point and redeem the corresponding amount of ETH.

The Reversible ICO was checked with BaFin, the highest regulatory authority in Germany and is in accordance with german security law, bringing new on-chain investor protection to the controversial ICO mechanism. As the world’s first rICO project approved by a regulatory agency, LUKSO will open its rICO on May 27, one week after the Spotlight token sale. It is important to note that this doesn’t mean any sale using the rICO of LYX itself is endorsed by the BaFin. The new rICO has been checked and approved by the German Regulatory Authority Agency.
