Could you please elaborate on what a Crypto Initial Coin Offering (ICO) entails? As a financial professional, I'm curious to know the intricacies of this emerging fundraising method in the cryptocurrency sphere. Specifically, how does an ICO work? What are the key components and processes involved? Furthermore, what are the benefits and risks associated with participating in an ICO? Lastly, how do ICOs differ from traditional fundraising methods like initial public offerings (IPOs)? I'm keen to gain a deeper understanding of this fascinating aspect of cryptocurrency finance.
