One often the most interesting ideas that came up during the ICO boom in 2017 was the idea that independence movements could be crowdfunded using ERC-20 tokens and later use the tokens as the currency in their new economy post-independence. (E.g. the Catalans in Spain)

So as an ICO participant - you could have a direct economic return if the independence movement was successful and the new country stabilized

This never played out but still an interesting idea
