“We surveyed major ICOs and found – large raises never mean high returns,” Primitive co-founder Dovey Wan commented on Twitter uploading the data.

ICOs have managed to sell almost as much Ethereum (ETH) in terms of US dollars as they have raised, new research shows. Even with the current rates of ETH, projects are sitting on unrealized profits, rather than actual losses.
According to a new research brought forward by Hong Kong cryptocurrency exchange in partnership with analytics resource TokenAnalyst, initial coin offerings (ICOs), which raised ETH throughout their crowdfunding sales, have sold almost as much of it as they’ve raised in terms of USD. The research reads:
It hasn’t been the best year for Ethereum, seeing as though the valuable altcoin has shed over 75 percent of its value. While the market hasn’t been kind to other cryptocurrencies, rumors have its that the great price decline by Ethereum has been as a result of the hundreds of ICOs panic selling their Ether stashes in fear of the price crashing. However, a new research by the crypto exchange giant BitMEX has discredited these rumors and revealed that over 75 percent of the Ether raised in ICOs has already been sold. The research further revealed the effect that Ethereum’s price change has had on the dollar value of the Ether raised by the startups, with some like Filecoin gaining hundreds of millions while other like Sirin Labs lost just as much.
