Era context: the genesis years (2013–2016)
This sale occurred during the Genesis Years (2013-2016), the first era of token sales. During this period, early projects like Mastercoin and Ethereum demonstrated the viability of the token sale model. The 2016 collapse of The DAO, which split the Ethereum network, highlighted the importance of smart contract security in this emerging field.
