They do the offering now because they have a bit of a name and the world is currently filled with suckers who think that getting in on an ICO is a worthwhile speculation. The greater fool theory at work.

It could still tie their hands later on. Once it starts crashing they'll lose a lot of the early adopter enthusiasm that they will need to catch on.
