Binance founder and CEO, Changpeng Zhao simply known as CZ took out time to answer a frequently asked question (FAQ) by many crypto inventors — one coin to rule them all or millions of coins? CZ chose the latter, supported by a lengthy article explaining the rudiments of creating tokens, and the benefits of issuing a coin.
He says issuing a new coin can make an inventor some money from the initial sale (ICO, IEO, IDO) if they have credibility. However, the inventor can only get probably less than 0.1% of the total value.

He warns that it cannot be done using company equity (securities) or fiat currencies, or even using bitcoin. This implies that you have to create your own coin for it to work.
