It was Bitcoin that made ICO's possible in the first place, not ETH. Before BTC, the term ICO didn't exist.

Bitcoin ICO's weren't projects that were pegged to there blockchain though.

No? The first ICO I can remember was MasterCoin in 2013, which was pegged to Bitcoin.

The few projects that pegged did because Bitcoin was the only viable/secure blockchain.

Y,most projects took BTC,then started their own chain. But MasterCoin proved that wasn't necessary. Tokens be issued directly on BTC chain.

I find amusing is the BTC crowd blasting ETH for starting the ICO craze, when it was Bitcoin itself that started ICO's in the first place.

That's what it became. It's not what ETH or the Foundation originally envisioned. It would've happened one way or another.

I think this is a phase. Eventually ICO's will move to something designed for token issuance like Waves, Bitshares, NXT, Omni, etc.

If all you want is to issue tokens for an ICO, it's way too hard on ETH. It'd be much easier on Waves, NXT, Bitshares, for example.
