Crowdfunding & Blockchain

An ICO is a new means of crowdfunding in which a project or company offers digital coins (or tokens) in exchange for an investment of Fiat currency or cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin or Ethereum

The primary market is where you participate in the first issue of ICO tokens. I.e. the project issues the tokens in return for money (usually Ether).
