1. ICO founders are getting a quick education in the fact that "anyone can sue anyone at any time" -- no matter what paperwork you have folks sign.

2. What are the damages if they just give the money/coins back? That's the easiest solution for these ICOs: a 100 days buy back/escrow period?

3. Another easy solution is to have these ICOs hold the proceeds in escrow and release of funds quarterly for five years to the startups/projects and giving the investors the ability to refund half or 75% of their remaining commitment (i.e. a 25-50% penalty for leaving the project early).

had the founder on recently https://youtu.be/rdRSUJkvmxM -- seems like people who invested knew what they were doing going in.
