I am already exhausted joining an ICO projects because most of them will not succeed or it the team will just list the token in an exchange then leave or dump the project due to low crowd funding's. This is why I am eager to look in the bounties altcoin section area to get the chance to join an STO (Security Token Offerings) for it was said that these kinds of offerings were being registered to a certain third party like government to ensure the project's workability and so as to get directly point out the group of people involve who brought up the project.

Is there any STO projects now? Please send a list. Thank you!

I find STO projects on the Icobench site. Three categories of ICO, IEO and STO are now created on this site . You can go to the list of STO projects via this link - https://icobench.com/icos?filterTokenClass=security
I took part in the bounty campaigns of several STOs, but haven't yet received tokens. I hope the STOs will become more reliable projects than ICO.

Though the domain is for sale. There's a list you can find on: https://www.listico.io/sto/list

Well this will help anyway. Thank you for this link. I am browsing the site now!

Yeah I have tried ICO bench before joinig a bounty campaign or even investing a project itself but I have not made any gain for now. Most of the coins are down and I am at potential loss if I will sell my holdings.

Now, I think I am ready to participate again in joining bounty campaigns or investing a project. I do only have a little amount to invest because I do not do risking hard earn money. Thanks for the link.

I wasn't aware there was a filter on icobench for seeing sto projects.

I did come here to say hygh, gigzi and faba but it seems they are all listed on there. Thanks for the information.

currently has a STO, Bcnex project. It is a exchange of Vietnamese people and it is quite amazing. I met them and discussed with them a lot about future strategies, they are having a great plan.
Besides, this is the time for exchanges and Bcnex to appear at the present time is an advantage.

Good! good luck investing with STO's.

I really don't know what does STO means or it just basically another type of ICO while on the other side it offer you some securities effort to your token or hat?

I have not seen any of STO projects yet but I think the whole STO idea is still presently being developed and not launched yet but I really doubt the survival of STO since it still has a link to the government and they will still be able to probably monitor investors and their funds through the STO system which has still defeated the objective of blockchain, but this would really have been the best form of secured investment.

I just hope it won’t really take them very long to be meeting up with softcap in STO projects. For ICO, that is why you have the option for IEO now, you can invest in the ones from IEO which for now still has more security than ICO.

Lately, I have heard about boltoncoin, but there were talkings about it being scam. There are also dozens of sites where lists are found. Check it : https://icomarks.com/stos

The whole hype of the STOs seems literally down since basically they offer similar functions to ICOs and is as if investor actually prefer ICO these days to STOs and the whole thing is down since it doesnt offer substantial benefit to what we already have

STO dead and only dumb person who wanna invest in the fake STO with full of a gimmick. STO dead and IEO and ICO have been gaining its momentum again.
We don't need STO and that's garbage. So many scam STO. ICO is enough and we don't need another rebrand like STO.

You might want to check this STO platform they have launch a few projects I don't know if its sold out or at least reaches its softcap their progress is pretty decent and they are offering airdrops to its premium users from the STO they conducted.
https://w12.io

I am still skeptical about STO. I think that the market is not ready for this. Besides, I’m not sure that STO is better than utility tokens.

Initially, the STO was not a rebranding of the ICO, but rather a self-contained idea, which, unfortunately, was not properly developed. Scam STO? Heh, this is ICO-STO. So funny. IEO? IEO = hype 2019 ICO.

I know of one currently. It is Organicco. I don't know how far they have gone anyway. You may search for them.

i don't think STOs can be a good idea any more.
investing in this type of investment is a very high risk gamble on its own but as each of these methods lose their hype the also increase their risk. first it was ICO that now has the highest risk then came the STOs which tried to increase the odds but when IEOs appeared they failed to do that. and soon the age of IEO will also end.

I think I saw a new tab on ICOBench where you can split among IEOs, ICOs and STOs. This feature is pretty helpful and will lead you to all existing STO projects that are currently live or are about to start they sales.

We are yet to see successful, working sto projects so i will recommend to not get excited or hyped about stos, lets wait for a few profitable stos before jumping in, if you still want to get sto tokens then you can promote them and you may earn some of their tokens from their bounty campaigns.

You should be able to search this forum: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0 as a reference or see some STO projects that are still running. You are right and right if you want to switch from ICO to STO. I think we all have the direction of thinking that is all in investing, which is seeking certainty and not just for a moment. Because the future will belong to people who invest from now on.

indeed, at this time the token that has a platform about STO is still very doubtful because there are a lot of bad news circulating that cryptocurrency security is often broken so many doubt the STO platform token. I recommend that you avoid tokens with STO platforms.

In comparison to an ICO, what is the advantage of STO? I don't see the essence of providing another means of investment platform other than ICO as we can see, just ICO itself cannot stand on its own then added by another one called STO? The market will just suffer.

You can find some (or maybe all) of them on this resource https://www.storating.com/ . They also have a weekly newsletter with new ratings  to subscribe

ICO projects can scam easily but STO will not! Because STO means the regulated project, they are under some regulations! But most of the ICO project use fake information and they can scam even after a successful sale! But if an STO project fails, investors will get their money back and after listing on an exchange, STO token/coins price will be protected by the team!

Thanks for this information. STO projects are new to me. As I searched about STO its just the same as ICO but it's safer than ICO. Since STO comply regulatory governance and it is backed by assets. I hope that STO could make investors come again in cryptocurrency.

I will support the same opinion. I believe that IEO is much more promising at the current time than STO and even more so ICO. But in the future can be very dawn STO. Will wait

https://icomarks.com/stos

I always use this website for getting info about ICO's, STO's and others.
You can almost all info in here...

Joining to be able to participate alone now is quite difficult if we want to get from the IEO which is indeed a lot of competition. you must be able to compete to be able to get these benefits. many are interested and interested

Even investing on it won't help you much so you have to be much knowledgeable on evaluating the crypto projects what even it is like STO or ICO.I am not seeing any new crypto projects getting huge profits due to the bear market so all you need to wait I think.

You can check from here; https://icobench.com/icos?filterTokenClass=security there is a whole section left for security tokens, you can decide yourself if any of them are any good or not and you can read reviews about the tokens and I have seen couple with decent ideas behind them and all that but people are still using it like getting funding for their business idea instead of a token or a coin.

ICO/STO/IEO they are not for people to get funding for their ideas, it wasn't suppose to be like a collective angel investor deal, it was coins created from nothing that provided something to the crypto world but it has nothing to do with that anymore. Its sad to see this "free money" thing turned into fake startup world and I hope we will get back on track one day.

Yes of course, there are so many STO projects already rising up in the crypto market as of today, I think that those ICO listing website existing are not listing upcoming ICO or ongoing ICO anymore, they are also listing upcoming STO and ongoing STO too, so I think the best thing for you to do is to check over there to see if you can find any good STO project that you can invest in or rather you can try investing in IEO since it is the new trend in town and might likely give you more profit because everyone is running into it.

As far as I remember, there are a lot of projects that were previously in ICO status and they switched to STO. I think that there are situations when projects will probably not be better to switch to STO.

You should be able to find in a ico rating type of website, like icorating, icobench, icomark, you should check the website if you want to search for STO project, im not quite sure if all existing sto project is listed at the website.

i think IEO ( Initial Exchange Offering) is the trend now. forget STO and find some projects in big exchanges.

I think you should monitor such projects yourself through information sites and check their availability on this platform. Then you are sure. But do not rush to join the project as fraudsters can also track the movement of this project. And post a false article here.

Hundred new hit? Well, if they are so popular. They will be impossible to earn. Everyone will join the project. Yes, I do not think we can not have nothing to guarantee profit. Wash project bolton cut payments to hunters 10 times. Why do we need such projects? ;D

There are so many STO's here. But what are you looking for really? STO's doesn't important for me because I can't see any difference between it & ICO's.

Some STO projects are running at this moment, but I haven't seen a promising STO project yet! Most of the STO projects was ICO once! After getting fail in ICO, they converted the project into IEO to make project success or to make funds! Orbis Transfer, Gigzi and many other ICO projects turned in STO and their main sale is live now. But Honestly, I haven't found any promising STO project yet for investment!

But there is a difference between ICO and STO! You need to know what is it! STO means security tokens offering, here security means this project is registered by the government or SEC and their tokens also regulated! They can't scam people's money easily because all of their information verified by the regulation! But in ICO, anyone can betray/Cheat people, most of the ICO scammers are unknow and no one could find them! Therefore, ICO projects don't care about the price, but in STO, coin price will be protected by the team for the investors! 

Security tokens are not in most cases link to government and there have not been any official announcement of any country supporting crytpocurrency at the moment, bit why story are more reliable is it nature of starting point which have some legal framework and link to a certain business already owning a working business.

I haven't seen any STO project who made success this year! So, STO projects are not doing well! MOBU was an ICO project but investors did not go for it, then they became STO project but still, MOBU failed to make investors interest! And they have gone for private sale again! Right now, Hygh Tech STO looks good, but they are not getting good investment too! I think ICO market still better than STO!
You can get some high rated STO project names from Icobench, but don't forget to research by yourself.

İ agree with your opinion but the chances are low for getting accepted as STO. Regulation problems still exist and that's why the KYC process is required for STO. STOs are better than ICOs in terms of safety and reliability but it will not be as profitable as ICOs.

STO is a new HYIP, which very soon goes out like IEO because in general it’s just projects that today have nothing good. It's all the same ICO, you just lose nothing, except as an opportunity to raise funds for the project.

I am surprised that there are too many STO right now, and some of these escape my attention, maybe because some of them are not holding a bounty campaign that investors are not aware of their crowdfunding, STO is good so far the only disadvantage that I can think of right now is the proper marketing.

even STOs can't manage to sell their tokens . people just don't see them as any different from ICOs . maybe on bullish trend people will consider making such risky investitions but not now

I haven't found any new STO project for now. But i know a security token, it is GoldMa token.
They has raised about $8mil and built the gold mining site. The dividend distribution is start at the end of Q2 2019.
It is a waves token though, not an erc20 token. You can do the research and due diligence about the project.

Why do you think that STO is HYIP, I think it is different, because the projects are called STO need a lot of conditions.

I have not really seen this neither. The one I have even heard of is Bitbond, there is one aside bitbond that I saw but can’t remember the name again. Although it was based on what they have on their website as an STO project that made me believe in them, I have not done proper research to really know if it is true.

I really don’t like STO projects that much, I see it as projects that will be for people that can invest in a very big way, because the only way to get a very good interest from STO projects are when you out in big money, interest on small investment when I sued their calculator is very low for me.

STO is only a few projects that use it unlike ICO and IEO that are often used, because STO does not guarantee the security of their tokens, but clearly the IEO is good.

I don't think so. Serious projects are mostly diverting to IEO since they can easily collect fund. ICO and STO are not having enough response nowadays. I think these will not anymore be hugely used for fund collection.

we will know the results later whether the STO is HYIP or not, so in my opinion if we don't like the STO project then we don't need to join and if we like it then just go ahead.
all you have to make sure is that the project is fraudulent or not.

ICO and IEO are two different things and there are no more alternative to measure the success of both token sale style. STO projects are dead after the invention of the IEOs. They will handle the problems created by the ICOs.

I have not seen any STOs rely make waves after the NEXO  tokens, Polymath team made promises but now we all know they are just after investors money, team that can't get in before Private sale level won't make it, to me I don't know why company offering securities can't just go for Stock offering and looking to offer useless tokens if not that they want to still your money

And why do you need to send a list? Choose any exchange and look for new projects that will be posted on the IEO. Just be sure to review the statistics of the success of previous projects.

Yes. there are lots of STO projects going on.  I know well one STO project is DCI Ecosystem which makes investment easily accessible, comprehensive for everyone.


Unlike an ICO, a security token is essentially an investment contract into an underlying asset; it has all the attributes of a security in that it is a fungible, negotiable financial instrument that represents actual monetary value. STOs are backed by real assets and follow the SEC’s guidance on compliance, issuance, and trading.

An ICO, on the other hand, technically has no collateral. Issuers tried to circumvent regulatory requirements by claiming their tokens were a utility as opposed to a security (as we mentioned earlier, the SEC doesn’t buy that argument). An STO (https://www.sagipl.com/sto-marketing.php) is neither an ICO nor an initial public offering a la stocks; rather, it overlaps both fundraising models.

As far as I know Bitbond STO, a germany based company, us running and you can check it in bitcointalk. It has a hige hype and I guess it will be a successful one. Have a search on BitBond STO and you will get the result.

Of course we have now plenty STO project as of now and truly is that i am now participating STO project which is the bitbond for sure it has high potential to be popular in the market when it reaches on exchanges more investors will invest on it.

very many projects run STO and you can search on several sites or you can go to the bounties section. don't just ask but do it yourself and read a lot

Right, asking, but not looking, there will be no results, but there are also people who after looking for new questions because what they are looking for is not found, only for many STO projects that are now one of them is Bitbond.

I think that during the years of the existence of the altcoin market, many people are tired of losing money on fraudulent projects. Therefore, STO will help solve this problem. I am sure that in the future the security of investing in cryptocurrency projects will only increase.

There are many sites that provides info about ongoing and upcoming STOs. Here's the one I use
https://stoanalytics.com

STO are basically ICOs that promises to provide the dividends to the token holders. i.e. tokens would be equivalent to stocks of the company.
An unregulated STO is just a scam. A legit STO should be licensed and should have it's operation audited by independent auditor.
Bitbond and blueshares are some of the legit licenced ongoing STO.

Yes! There are STO projects right now. I think bitbond is currently one of the STO projects that is running. STO or the Security Token Offering is good because of its legitimacy. We will never be fear in scam or fake projects because STO's are really true. Before it conduct its STO, they should process in government or in SEC. So that they can conduct their fund raising.

You are so unfriendly about STO, but at the same time bear the signature of such a project, what is the point?
The STO, a new species that has not clearly defined its usefulness, too few projects have used this method.

Sorry for your loss but i think it's best to do your research properly before investing any project not necessarily an ICO or an STO. i have read about some security tokens that have failed before and have also seen ICO projects that are really doing a great job on the market. In case yo would want to go into STOs then  suggest you look into Organicco project, Smart Valor, Mobu etc.

Now it is very difficult to find projects that do STO. Because most projects carry out ICO and IEO. However, there are some projects that do STO but I forget the name of the project. If you change your mind to invest in ICO, of course I only recommend Bcnex for those of you who invest. Because Bcnex is one of the most popular ICO projects today.

BitBond is the first German STO and 2.1 million euros already raised, so if you want to find STO project, BitBond is the right choice and I'm sure BitBond will succeed in the future, then if you are interested to investing in BitBond, so you can invest or learn more about BitBond at https://www.bitbondsto.com/ and i suggest you to invest immediately in BitBond, because BitBond token sale will ends in 18 days from now.

Bitbond is a security token and I'm sure security tokens are now a new trend after the IEO. Security is a new trend because it is regulated by financial authorities and this is like buying bonds but in the form of tokens or ERC20

I have not seen this STO project so seriously until now. Most of them are scammer and are trying to scam investors. STO is difficult to make and so I guess it will take a lot of time in the future for STO to work

I don't know, I consider ICO, STO, and IEO the same. the main topic and focus of analysis is the project. now there is a STO bitbond project if it's not mistaken and I see a lot of people taking part in the campaign. we don't know yet whether it's a scam or not, because so far they look fine. we have to wait until they are finished and can be traded.

I do not seen any concrete differences between ICO, IEO and STO. But IEO and STO are gradually replacing ICO lately by promising investment security to some extent. Talking about IEO, a project is expected to launch its IEO on an exchange and list its coin on the same exchange accordingly. Likewise, STO is a security token promised by a project. I have found a good STO project. You may like https://www.stellerro.com/

The project I'm working on for signature is one of the first STO in Germany, it was advertised in a lot of big crypto newspapers. I think this will be a successful project

We are yet to find and see some great STOs but for now remain calm and not follow the hype. I suggest we wait and see new STOs that will come up and be good. Not just any coin.

It's surprising how this year started with the news of STO projects taking over from ICO which rather didn't happen till IEO. Anyways, I think some STOs might just be worth it. Try Bitbond(bitbond.com)and Stellerro(stellerro.com). They both look promising and commend quality rating from review platforms

the sale of bitbond tokens is complete but I don't know how much money has been collected, which I know before the sale ends the funds written on the website are only $ 2,1 million euros. very little in my opinion  :-\

The STO fundraising model is not feasible right now and that is mainly because there are very few projects that can actually command the hefty capital that the STOs require and also the large majority of ico and IEO investors are not acredited investors, so it will be difficult to get inveators unlike the ICO models.
Also the issue of long lockup periods is also a preparing concern for this investors

STO projects are more suffering than ICO to raise the soft cap! This year, only one STO projects ended their token sale as I know and that is the Bitbond STO! Though they raised only 2-3 million Euro! MOBU STO looks fail, hyghtech STO sale is live but they keep extending their sale time, Blocksafe STO is not getting enough fund, same for the LOLcoin STO! I would like to suggest you go for a better exchange IEO

There is...
The STO project like the one I'm currently following is Stellerro. I am currently trying to feel how the STO project is called a project with a level of security that is registered with third parties and controlled. After I saw it several times, this Stellerro project is good to try.

It all looks like the idea of STO has failed and investors are not interested in taking part in such a project. Obviously a lot of difficulties for investors

There are so many platforms that you can use to find information on STO projects, such as through the icobench site. Or you can also use the stoscope.com website, on this site various STO projects are provided with various industry categories.

You can find upcoming STO projects and ongoing STO projects at Stoscope.com but i haven't find any STO project that interest me yet and bcnex is an exchange project which is why i don't have interest

it's totally failed and it's not matching with the crypto community. if they are thinking STO still works and they are wrong at that thing. STO dead and almost all of STO platform never meet even softcap and that already represented the demand for STO is almost zero.

Same here, I think the idea of STO projects is bad and the demand is almost near zero.

I did not hear about any that is about to launch at the moment. It looks like all other forms of fundraising are dying off and the only one that is going to stay are IEOs. So I do not believe that any STO will collect enough funds at this moment, so do not waste your time.

currently token sto is pretty much only those who get a lot of funds I have not seen it, but those who failed to get me see it is bitbond sto, even though they offer a bounty allocation with a very large amount and I'm sure the allocation will be cut out completely

Really I've be curious and I want to ask people if there is any STO project that have perform very well than many successful IEO since the introduction of STO to crypto space,is there even any at all??

there is a good project associated with telephony, and the iso is already over, the tokens earned on bounty, the company is already buying back at the same price as it was sold, and paying dividends to holders.

The last sto project I saw was this German company that called bitbond that have us hope for a successful STO. Currently, I am not investing in cryptocurrencies so I do not bother myself with the outcomes of these projects. With my experience in maxcrowdfund, I think stos may not have a better place to stand in crypto compared to ico and IEO.

I think STO will not explode because it is too difficult for investors to participate. IEO is easier and brings faster returns to investors. IEO is currently a hot trend and I think it will continue for 1-2 years

My the favoritest one - Stellerro STO - didn´t even raise soft-cap. Their soft-cap was only 300k Euro. Now back into the history and find how much money projects raised in 2017.  :'(
Bitbond STO, same problem, even you find a good STO, it will have a problem to raise soft-cap.

honestly for the moment I have never seen a project that uses the STO system, so I have not been able to suggest that to you. However, what I know is that all of your opinions will not confirm whether the STO project will arrive at its objectives and succeed. what is certain is that a project is successful because of the components or team members who are smart, honest and agile when working. thus the direction of the project's objectives can be successful. For this reason do not stick to the system of the program, but look at the members and objectives of the project.

It has been a while since I heard about STO. My thought initially about STO was that, I thought it would be another perfect saviour, since most ICOs are not delivering the needed result, but I was wrong.
Most STOs became more worse than ICO. They all turned into scam. Perhaps scammers took advantage of that fact that crypto enthusiasts trusted it.

The STO market wasn't fully developed due to the intrinsic complicated nature of its make up that is why cryptocurrency enthusiasts have not found it attractive. The only STO project I platform I know of is Bitbond from Germany. You can check if its still running

I agree with you. 95% of STO projects has been failed in this year. Though I haven't seen any successful STO projects yet. Bitbon looked promising to me, but they failed to reach their softcap and almost scam their bounty hunters. Yesterday, Stellero STO announced that they failed to raise enough funds, so they are returning all funds to its investors. So, the plan of regulation in crypto projects failed miserably.

There were a couple of STOs that were launched last year and also at the begining of this year but most of them really could not get all the approvals from the legal institutions hence have come to a stop or are planning to come back as an ICO. However i would advise not to invest into STOs but look into investing into IEOs, they are a better slot in these times ;D

people prefer IEO nowadays. in addition, STO has also not demonstrated its effectiveness in sales. Well, maybe STO still has some shortcomings, just like ICO. although it all depends on the type of project, I think people are more likely to consider investing in IEO projects than STOs.

I did not see any STO successfully project before, if you know list it here.

I think it depends on the team also in running the project. There are many successful ICO projects at high coin prices. Yes, it's up to you, if you are not happy with the ICO project.

For info on the STO project you can see here icobench (https://icobench.com/) & icorating (https://icorating.com/), maybe something is right for you.

Now too many have talked about the IEO, they also argue that the IEO is better for investment. This is inseparable from public trust in the project developer, especially advisors and teams.

It's the same when we join a bounty campaign. We also see who the manager is. If he can be trusted, we will be competing to joined the project.

Good luck finding legit STO projects from that page. Theres simply too much to filter and search because even if they say a project is an STO you really won't know unless you check with the local government. Imagine how difficult and time consuming that would be especially if they registered with a third world country.

If you ask me no real project would put much effort into identifying themselves as an ICO or STO because they would instead be too easy working an actual project.

Same way ICOs won't succeed so are STOs. The thing about all these terms ICOs, STOs and IEOs is that they're all a means of raising funds which honestly speaking ain't necessary at the first place. The amount of money raised by projects are too exorbitant yet most of them can't get their projects right after it all.

I do not see any project implementing STO. It may be too difficult for everyone to join or no projects meet the standards

That's right. STO projects require much more regulatory authorization. So most of the STO projects either failed or came out scam.
I haven't encountered a successful STO project yet, but hopefully, this will change soon. Because the blockchain ecosystem needs such an instrument.

STOs are dead, as well as ICOs are. Nobody is willing to invest in projects that are not cooperating with exchanges like Okex. Save some money, buy their exchange tokens and take part in another IEO, you would be able to make much better money.

STO system seems not so good development. I see that some projects use the STO system but the results are not so good that they can collect.
it looks like this system needs stronger reforms and regulations that can make investors interested. or maybe the current situation that might make investors reduced.
