China banned fundraising through ICOs, but wants firms to research blockchain

Senior Chinese government officials says the ban was only to stop illegal fundraising and pyramid schemes, but should not stop firms from studying the underlying technology.  

Regulators now planned to continue undertaking independent research into the financial technology system, and would seek third-party research and also assess companies' own research in order to formulate a framework. But the technology industry would be expected to foot part of the costs for creating such a framework, he added without providing details.
