> you will not earn anything in the future if the project succeeds

Neither will you with ICOs. They normally don't give any ownership or the like.



How not? You get royalties from their project and, if they succeed, you will be able to negotiate that for more than you have paid. And there is a possibility to receive ownership, I do not know if any of the recent ICO has given that, but they could; future products or services for the Token that you have bought.


No, that's not how the majority of ICOs work. You get no royalties. The tokens can be anything.

This will include both transactions between the users — payments for computing power — and transactions between users and software developers. The latter will consist of payments for the software used on the Golem network in a SaaS model. Where applicable, a blend of both open source and proprietary software will be used.
