The SEC has ruled that some coins in ICOs are actually securities and are subject to the SEC rules[1] so they aren't going to really bypass the SEC at all. It's just a matter of time before things get ugly.
This goes back to my original point that there is value in cryptocurrency and the technology behind it. It's just going through a period of explosive interest and growth, which in turn is causing the technology to get better rapidly.
The multimillionaire investors are going to be made over the next 3 years. The next google could come out of an ICO in 10, it's just a matter of the market correcting itself once the hype wears off.
