I'm actually not quite sure why the focus is on it being an ICO platform. I thought SMTs are supposed to be a cheap an inclusive way for anyone to issue a token. It can be for personal blogs or fan clubs and the possibility is endless.

ICOs on the other hand is about raising money. Having partially to be blamed for the crypto winter, ICO is no longer generating hype and it's in fact more like a taboo. I think heading down this ICO path isn't doing good for this platform.
