Bitcoin Forum

I would like your thought about the best platform for IPO/ICO to use.

For example. we have in this case : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=596706.0;all - MRKLYE used http://counterparty.io/

After making few research, I found https://wavesplatform.com/ being used in may signatures.


I would like your opinions about the platform you like and you used, pros and cons.


Thank you.

Creating an automated platform for ICO / IPO is not trivial, as this type of project typically requires involvement of investment bank.
Besides tech stack you'll need PR (otherwise noone will now that your ICO is happening), Legal (to structure your financial instrument properly), industry insiders (to attrack target group of investors) and a lot of other people.

At Ambisafe (http://ambisafe.co/) we have the full tech stack that typical ICO requires and can connect you with the rest of the partners that you'll need. But again every project is different and you'll not find completely automated solution.

Feel free to reach out: sales@ambisafe.co

nah, I checked most providers.

I'd rather build my own platform using solutions better than eth or color coins.

It's harder than it appears. You'll spend at least 6 months for trying to get some functionality that you expected to be working from the box.

I am almost done with it.
Thank you anyway.

soon you will be able to run your own copy of https://wings.ai (you can see an early version at https://alpha.wings.ai) - it runs on top of ethereum, which is the best platform for ICOs right now.

For now Ethereum platform is the most easiest platform to be used since i think we cannot get some hassle upon using it. And we can actually see that almost coins who runs for now are using the ethereum network so maybe its not so hassle on your side if you would choose that since ETH for now are gaining more momentum in this industry and might it gonna gives your project some good vibes.

Thank for sharing this solution, took the time to watch the video on the website. I have an idea in my head, maybe I can use their platform.

I like https://cryptonomos.com/?r=1H2MkmZnQak9mIc0NKCaddDsQ 

The current offering isn't a get rich quick coin flip but that's why I like it, not a scam

Complete insanity.

Boxed solution for an ICO launch from ICOBox.

http://icobox.io/

50 BTC, that equals to $130,472.50

Kool Aid is cheap i see.

I would recommend the Wavesplatform.
Their main mission is to facilitate ICOs it is very easy to start a crowdfunding campaign with them.

lol lol   :o

Yea but waves sucks though, a lot.

pls explain..  ???

This looks promising: https://twitter.com/coralfundraiser

what exactly sucks a lot about it?

Waves is the best. I am using waves wallet and i can do lots of things in wallet.
they are really far away from other platforms. Also wave price is really cheap for now.
i will recommend you to go forward with WAVES

Good for you, but I found a way better solution than WAVES.

Building a custom solution is not that difficult.  We did it.

Heh, I guess thats the project you been working on, hehehehe...I am right? However, tell us more about why you dont like the WAVES to prove your point of view otherwise you will remain incompetent.

You can try wavesplatform.com because you can make your token asset so easy in wavesplatform.com The best ICO form this platform is The MobileGO (MGO) www.mobilego.io . Mobile go collected $50 Million+ from ICO.

On other hand you can try by Smart Contact of etherum Platform. So many ICO become success in this platform. as like WeTrust www.weturst.io , Taas www.taas.fund 

You can try OMNI, Nxt  there have some ICO will be success..

Thank You

ICO plateform heavily depends on how you want to structure your pre-ICO, ICO, post-ICO

Here's my collection of documents how ICOs and WPs (mostly ICOs) are structured
www.dropbox.com/sh/eix71s4x4rrbwsn/AADXWhPxtI-zHLygHiYFb0gaa?dl=0

I've spent couple of months collecting them, so if you appreciate my work - please add me some good carma in exchange ;)))

Another question why you need to consider a platform TCO of token usage is high on well known platform - higher the price of Ethereum - higher the Ethereum transaction costs, so if you want the same token workin on ICO as a payment vehicle AND in your app as a business-token, consider platform transaction costs.

There are many companies also working in this space now.. and having to take into serious consideration the legal and regulatory aspects of this. Are you prepared for this?

Thank you, there's a lot of research you've done there. Are you planning on doing one? Good luck!

There is a new and exciting format of what is traditionally known as an ICO. Neufund will be announcing its ICBM - Initial Capital Building Mechanism.  You participate in the ICBM and receive their Neumark Tokens, but your money is still your own.  How does this work?  Neufund is actually a platform built on the blockchain that is for companies to sell their equity on the platform to interested investors.

When you contribute to the ICBM, your money is not taken by Neufund, but rather held for you for your future investment in these companies, that are called Equity Token Offerings (ETO).

You receive the Neumarks at the time of participation in the ICBM, which has value on its own as all Neumark holders share in a portion of every future ETO token launched on the Neufund platform.

You can read more here, and register for all Neufund updates: https://commit.neufund.org/

You can join their slack channel here: https://neufundorg.signup.team/

Very good

We at utrum, a decentralized review platform are going with Komodo Platform.

Best part, its free. You don't need to have thousands of dollars to launch ICO. People have made it a BIG business to launch ICO's which is very disappointing.

Features of Komodo are

Decentralized ICO

Independent Asset chain and explorer unlike bloated ethereum

Jumbler - Coin Tumbler

Barterdex - Decentralized Exchange

See details here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dHaqm6Kfb4MmWUtnQgFi8SZbPsxwVsjqHqC2XwUiZrk/edit

https://blog.komodoplatform.com/komodo-platforms-innovation-blockchain-startup-kit-with-decentralized-crowdfunding-31026a7500f8

The project looks really promising. Especially because in addition, to what was said above, they have a business model. With their NEU token you earn with every transaction on the platform and own a share of a portfolio of companies that were funded on Neufund.

In the meantime, there is an official announcement thread for Neufund: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2335433.0

For the present Ethereum stage is the most simplest stage to be utilized since I figure we can't get some bother after utilizing it. What's more, we can really observe that nearly coins who keeps running for the present are utilizing the ethereum organize so perhaps its not all that bother on your side in the event that you would pick that since ETH for the time being are increasing more force in this industry and might it going to gives your undertaking some great vibes.

Single layer glaring flaw with ETH.

Try BestRate ICO payment tool.
It's not a platform, though, it's only a service that allows you to accept payments for your ICO in fiat and any cryptocurrency. However, it can be very helpful.

Am I the only one who does not trust ICOs who outsource all their work to some ICO launch/listing company? I mean you should do this with your own team, not outsource it to someone else. Hire a young team and start building with them.

You're not the only one since I am also been so annoyed by the ICO's running today since most all of them are turned scam.

But also I'm bit skeptical on your suggestion about hiring some young ones to build a team since it could make his project turns a destructible scam since there's no big funds will surely run to used on marketing aspect. I suggest on this to have a capitalist,visionary and other more big guys ahead so that he could it a successful one.

With just common sense or a normal stuff or decisions would be made.We would always choose for those big guys and do have experience when it comes to crypto and newbie or just new into this industry wont really be consider at all. Wont you mind on giving them a chance? it isnt bad to give them a chance but consderation would still really depend on how good the project is and on how they would able to convince us.

Great Information, This is really useful to all of us. please keep it up. Thanks for the sharing this valuable information.

I have a brand new one in my pocket, called Connectico. It is a one stop shop for the ICO world, and will come out to the market in couple of weeks. More details are about the drop of them in the next few weeks either

The best strategy for Launching ICO is:


#no Scam - it`s my number №1

# Use ICO Listings / Rating Agencies

#  Paid Advertising

#  Events and community

#  Effective hacking protection

#  Choose right ICO platform

ICO Platform Chosen Smartly: The Cash It Saves, The Issues It Solves

https://fs.bitcoinmagazine.com/img/images/doge_ico.original.jpg
01. Period

There are a big amount of companies which offer to launch you ICO. Choose one of the fastest.

02. Price

To launch ICO is not cheap. Don`t believe companies which offer you a “Tasty prices”.

03. Marketing Ready

Without it, you will be staying at the same place.

04. Effective hacking protection

Everything is not important if you will get a hack attack. Think about Security.

05. Free Demo

Ask to try Live demo for Free. You should know what you will get.

For example like this: http://bit.ly/2BoZfMS


We can both agree that finding the right platform can be confusing.

But, don’t worry: I have going to make it easy to decide which is best for you.

Thinking about main criterias I would like to suggest you cabinet ICONX.

Development of an ICO cabinet, like ICONX, is, in fact, the second most expensive and time-consuming step on the ICO road. It’s a platform that, ideally, gives you a full range of tools that you need in order to carefully navigate your USS Crowdfunding and ensure its performance and security. At the same time, it must be attractive.

With your own custom-made cabinet, you need to spend about half a year and quite a lot of bucks ($50,000, on average) on the development team. But it can give plainly everything that you would like it to.

With the majority of existing platforms, you have a limited functionality and lack of marketing tools (more on this below). Instead, you get the solution right here right now spending less money and ensuring a relatively high security level.
