ICO and Bitcoin: The Crucial Link in Digital Asset Financing
Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), as a method for blockchain projects to raise capital, are closely linked to Bitcoin (BTC). ICO projects typically accept investors using Bitcoin (or other major cryptocurrencies like Ethereum) to purchase their newly issued tokens, making Bitcoin a "gateway" asset to the broader cryptocurrency market. Historically, the first ICO project, Mastercoin, raised funds through Bitcoin. ICOs peaked during the 2017 crypto boom, offering startups an alternative to traditional financing. As of 2026, the ICO market has become more regulated, and Bitcoin, as the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, continues to influence the entire digital asset ecosystem with its market performance and status.
