Later on investors can redeem bought tokens or coins to access full feature those coins or tokens have to offers. They can open their own project or join the other on the existing blockchain.

Keep in mind that not all ICO are legit with their offering. lots of ICO offering a crap coin with flashy name plus a colorful website but turn out as a scammer. This kind of thing happen quit frequently now so make sure that you need to watch out each coin potential and their technology behind it before investing.
