there are so many ico i have been part of but nowadays there are a trend is coming in the way of IEO. But i can not figure out why? because IEO is already have tokens on exchange that is why or is there any other reason?

What thoughts you have about it ?

ICO is utilized to raise assets for creating and propelling blockchain items and administrations. In return for assets, these undertakings offer crypto coins and tokens. These coins and tokens are local to the blockchain where the crypto task will be fabricated.

IEOs are a stage back and in another manner, they are a developmental advance forward. IEOs bring back 'centralization' that blockchain perfectionists despise. Lamentably (in any event for the time being) this is an essential advance as I would like to think. Including digital currency trades implies tokens are presently destined to be tradable in an optional market on the supporting crypto-trade.

a little definition from my quora account

To make changes is really needed because we know that crypto is really not going well, because there are many scams on ICO. if there are changes that can make crypto excited why not to run. we'll see the development of IEO, hopefully can spur improvement in crypto.

The main reason is IEO offers a better guarantee than ico just like what you have said in your post that the instant listing for IEO coin. ICO doesn't give a huge guarantee like that and that's why that will need more effort to list IEO on exchange site.
There was another reason just like exchange site will be doing validation before it will try to list the project into the launch pad and this brings investor to the comfort zone where it decreases the possibility to get the scam project.

Things is going well for crypto adoption but not in price value especially for altcoin investors that is why everyone is complaining about crypto but for me things are indeed normal and rising for crypto,we can't be expecting positive results all the time, no my friend that's not reality

IEO can be said the new trend in crypto and system is better than ICO. It didn't take long for IEO to fundrising and after that the coin is already listed on exchange. I like to invest in IEO project but more prefer to IEO project on big exchange.

There are a number of reasons why people trust IEO which has recently arisen so much, the main reason is the existence of an exchange, so every project that makes an IEO on a particular exchange, there is definitely a possibility of listing on that exchange, so people trust more on every IEO program.

IEOs have lesser scams unlike ICOs. IEOs are vetted by the exchanges, They put their reputation behind these IEOs also they give good return to investors, This is the reason I believe IEOs are attractive to investors. Of course there can be scams on bigger exchange's IEOs too, It's best to do your research as well before buying into IEOs.

I think because IEO is safer, and we don't need to worry about KYC data. because everything is done by exchange. IEO became a new trend because of its share of large exchanges. different at the time of the ICO because at this time a large exchange actively supports the project. and provide a place for sales of tokens.

Now days people trust IEO project more than ICO. Because it's too much easy to cheat or scam in ICO but it's not that much possible in IEO. And after ICO finished,  token when come to exchange it's difficult to tell but you can trade immediately after finished IEO. Sometimes you can trade token before finished IEO project though.


I think IEO project is better than ICO project. But there is much more to think like giving a exchange too much power, running IEO on a shit exchange which is too risky and so on. Hope those problem will be solve ASAP.

ieo is a good choice for a project in conducting the sale of their tokens, with the current existence of Ieo, makes investors again brave in investing their money in a cryptocurrency project because usually a project that wants to put on Ieo must work with an exchanger so that later in When the sale of Ieo ends, it is certain if the token or coin project will be listed in the exchanger, so that investors do not need to be afraid if the tokens / coins they buy at Ieo will become dead coins, and surely this will be an advantage of Ieo compared to if investors invest in an ico, because we know if investing in an ico we have to wait for the team to register tokens on an exchanger and of course the risk of becoming a dead coin is quite large if a project team does not make further development of their projects in the future.

What can you expect from an IEO? it means "Initial Exchange Offering". And it's already expected that the token is somewhere listed on that exchange where the sale is held.

I don't want to invest on it same as I've expected with ICO but if there will be an upcoming project for which is getting the attention of the community, I'll try to get in early. IEO is more secured than ICO.

What you need to first ask yourself is how many projects did I invested in their ICO in the past 6 months. People do not want to invest in ICO again because when you give them money, it could take months some even years before they get listed on exchange but what IEO offers is the instant trading after raising fund

Simply because IEO's stand a better chance of generating a ROI since they almost always come with immedia exchange listing. People have been left with a bad taste in their mouth after being burned by most ICOs throughout 2018, because of that the fundraising method began losing much of its steam as people started instead investing in safer ROI options.

Similarly, people saw that the Binance Launchpad IEOs generated significant returns for investors (at least initially), which kind of carried over to other less prominent exchange platforms like gate.io, Bittrex and the like. Now, IEOs appear to be again failing, so there will likely be the next iteration soon.

IEO doesnt have tokens on exchanges. IEO is having a public sales in an exchange.
THis will bring more trust from the investors as they are third party to depend on.
Unlike in ICO the team doing the business alone, here they need to have a decent exchange to handle the sales first.

You got it right! The main thing why IEO becomes the hype now is that the tokens is already directly being listed or to be traded on such exchange that do offers that IEO
and there were no other reason rather than that and in talks with project potential then they are almost the same which is shitty as hell.
They dont offer something new thats why you have seen some of them eventually dump its price or never been profitable to those IEO investors.

IEOs are fast becoming a shadow o itself because they are not really a guarantee of profits for investors who banked on the campaign yielding High sustained amount of income. I am actually excited at the future beyond IEO. I am waiting for the exciting and innovative offering that will tipple IEO just like it did to ICOs

The purpose of IEO & ICO was the same, the developer/team try to offering a project and funding their company/project by doing a token sale. The different between IEO & ICO, we have more due to diligency from the exchange and from your own opinion, also each project using a IEO get a free marketing from the user exchange and the investor not worry again about the listing exchange problem, we all know a lot ICO making a fake promise about an exchange at least with IEO costumer will not worry again about the exchange. The token will be tradeable after the IEO, but not all exchange can doing a successful IEO

Here some exchange, who already make a good ROI from their launchpad IEO : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5176233.0

IEO makes it easy for investors to trade after the developers have sold all the tokens they have, but the time to sell tokens is usually short and now the duration of the sale of the IEO tokens is longer than before because the developers want to raise more funds for their projects, ICO is still there and still good to run because it will have many members of the community and we just need to find a good ICO for our investment choices

The first thing that you might have noticed is that the number of IEOs getting listed per month is much lower than the number of fersh ICOs, when the ICO market was as its peak. During 2017 and 2018, on average there were 200 to 300 ICOs entering the market every month. With the IEOs, this has declined to 15 to 20 per month, as the steep listing fee is preventing the listing of a lot of new entrants.

This can have both advantages and disadvantages for the cryptocurrency market. The advantage is that many of the exchanges have strict KYC requirements and therefore the scammers may think twice before going ahead with the scam IEOs. Also, the listing fee can be anywhere from a few thousand USD to a few million USD. This will prevent the entry of projects from promoters who are not serious. One disadvantage is that if someone can't afford the listing fee, then he'll be forced to shelve his project.

The trend of ICO is going down, and it replaces by IEO. The ICO needs participants to help the project reach success in the future, and they also need investor to fund their projects. But the IEO needs a recommended exchanges to promote their project, and if they can get listed on the legit exchanges, it means their project is a good project, and the project can compete with the other project.

But that is no guarantee to see the IEO will be more successful than the ICO because that will depends on the developer and the teams, and of course the community of the project that will always support the project.

I think with getting listed on the exchanges, the project can cut off the way to distribute the token because the investor can buy the token directly on the exchanges with the IEO price. And if the project is good enough, then the token price can increase in the future, and it will attract more investor to buy the token. The chance to get scam from the project can be minimized because before the project can get listed on the exchanges, they need to verify with the exchanges verification so they can enter to the list of the IEO project in the exchanges.

IEO guarantees new coins and tokens to get the exchange market immediately so that investor confidence is more convincing. But I think at this time not all IEO projects are free from fraud, but also must be careful with fraud

Tokens or coins that already exist in the market indeed increase investor confidence in placing their funds. However, there are some criteria that must still be analyzed in-depth, for example, a trusted exchange, project quality, market interest, etc. Because there is no guarantee that all IEO will succeed.

I think IEO offers instant trading of the project's token on the exchange the IEO was conducted unlike ICO through which aside raising funds via it, the project team has to seek exchange(s) to get their token listed for trading. My dismay with IEO is that manipulation and centralization is very in the high side.

To be practical and easy investment choose IEO. This is the hassle free investment in crypto for now. But make sure to join only on good and huge exchanges such as Binance, some IEO are not trusted enough and no liquidity right after their token sale. ICO is for risk taker who still believe with some potential projects that has capability to become a good project.

I agree. IEO is quite effective for investors who have no experience in cryptocurrency, no need to bother analyzing too complicated because usually a global exchange like Binance will be very selective in choosing an IEO partner. But it must also be understood that there is always a risk, be wise in managing your funds.

although IEO is quite convincing compared to ICO, we still have to do in-depth research on the project that we will advertise, in terms of the team, even their white paper. to avoid fraud, try to support projects that carry out IEO in well-known markets. it may have a small risk because it can also affect related markets, so popular markets must first conduct research on projects that will do IEO on their markets.

Here is a good explanation from OKEx

https://medium.com/okex-blog/ieo-vs-ico-what-are-the-differences-f0a700bb9a5c

It's good though that we have this kind of business model, I mean a lot of investors are complaining about scam ICO in the crypto-verse and it's about time that at least we can minimised them by the introduction of IEO which is being run by trusted exchange.

However, it doesn't mean that scammers are not going to evolved and get themselves into IEO. There are some projects you might take advantage of this new trend and run a scam specially hiding behind from not so trusted exchanges. So we still need to be very careful and do due diligence.

The market is growing, so it's always changing. IEO was born to improve security and security for customers and it is considered an upgrade of the ICO. Also because part of the ICO has so many frauds without strict laws that make many people scam so they choose IEO to ensure their own rights.

Agree, in the end it all depends on the project and the product produced. IEO might be profitable but in my opinion it's only a short term and if without a good product and a solid developer team, eventually investors will leave the project

Direct exchange listing is the best thing that IEOs can offer. You do not need to wait for months for a token to get listing on exchange and if this exchange where IEO is held is Binance, it is not comparable with a regular ICO.

Currently the new trend IEO. I think the biggest reason for this is that most of investors don't trust ICO anymore. And especially investors can rely on IEOs which are organized by reliable exchanges and make good profits in a short time. And usually, shortly after IEO, tokens is begining to be trade on the exchange. So the investors are not so much waiting and can buying-selling with that tokens in exchange in a short time.

One of the factors IEO is interested in by investors is fast listing and also the security of customer funds. The sale of tokens is held by the exchanger and it is difficult for the developer team to escape the token sales fund. With these two factors, IEO has become a new trend and a new favorite in token sales and I think IEO is an opportunity for profit

Due ICO Already lost their trust to crypto community,  there's new method for fund rising. It called IEO. Exchange which is doing IEO are promised to list the token after IEO end. But I don't guarantee profit for it because not every IEO will success and give you high ROI. Some of them are just manipulate the bar. And for doing IEO it not as easy. It will take cost approximately 10-100 BTC.

After many ICO scams in 2018, many investors are more interested in IEO. It's hard to say that all IEOs are profitable because many IEOs hosted by small exchangers have fallen in price after the initial listing. In my opinion, a good IEO depends on the exchanger who runs it, but it also depends on the project. If the project is good and has a prospect even though IEO in the exchanger is small, the price will gradually go up and investors will look at it

IEO is seen as more credible than ICOs because tokens/coins are listed on already existing exchanges. This gives investors the needed boost and confidence which ICOs most times don't have. It's a great advantage because we all love to put our money where we feel it's secured. Personally, I wouldn't put my money on an ICO except I am cocksure the team wears integrity like a second skin. We all fear dumps and projects not getting listed at all. These are a few of the things IEOs take care of as an edge over ICOs.

it doesn't matter what they name it, as long as what they sell you is useless.
whether they call it ICO or IEO or any other I-Os in the end the product you are receiving is a useless token that was created only to receive that money from you. think about it a little bit, so far in the past couple of years we had thousands of tokens, and you know how many of them were useful? the answer is a big fat ZERO. none of them had any reason to exist but to raise money and go away. that is why every single one of them has dropped hard so far and many of them are already dead.

as you said, because IEO already has tokens on the exchange, so there will be no more anxiety waiting when the project enters the exchange market.
Another reason is certainly in terms of security, the IEO system is risking the ownership of the project token behind the exchange reputation it has, so it is considered far more trustworthy than the ICO system.

Having reached its peak in 2017, ICO-hype began to fade away. The main reasons for the decline were a fraud and close attention from regulators. With the beginning of 2019, a significant revival took place in the crypto industry, a new player appeared on the scene - IEO. The main difference between IEO and ICO is the presence of a crypto exchange between the investor and the issuer of the token. IEOs are safer, therefore.

The reason investors prefer Ieo is that Ieo is indeed safer than investing in ico right now, investors who are interested in buying a token project can certainly buy it directly from an exchange in collaboration with a token developer. So the level of fraud will be very small, in other words the exchange market is the liaison between investors and developers, and other benefits gained by investors in ieo are investors will be able to directly trade on exchanges that put on ieo after Ieo is officially ended.

The IEOs will be guaranteed listing on their exchanges. That's why the IEOs are better than ICOs. Most top exchanges IEOs are very successful right now. But the exchange is not the only thing to decide hodl that coin or not. Because you have to find the future of the projects. That's why you need your own research.

People will always take something that can make them to get profit. That is why IEO still be trend and more popular than ICO. But for some who late, maybe they only can see because IEO process really fast to end. If me i wouldn't force myself to join IEO, i still can buy in market when already listed.

While ICO are held totally independent by each developer, IEO has intermediaries which are an Exchange, and usually the better the Exchange reputation the better result for the IEO,  however better exchange required more cost. Generally investor has more trust on an exchange that already has big-name compared to new project that sometimes not even has a working product, and of course, before launching an IEO the exchange will do deep research and verification of the project. So, IEO is basically a win-win solution for both investors and developer.

But, at the same time IEO push blockchain and crypto further from the original purpose, which is decentralization.

Yes that is one of the reasons why peoples choose IEO over ICO, listing on exchange.
Usually after IEO ended, buyers can trade the token in the exchange.
With this, the investors can sell the token after IEO whenever they need to sell without waiting for long time.

Agree, besides that with IEO can prevent criminal acts such as money laundering because before participating in IEO, every investor is obliged to conduct KYC at the exchanger that organizes IEO.

That'st the changes in the market that we have to accept, ICO is slowly diminishing as most of the success in the crowd sale now are due to IEO.
If you have a lot of invest, just be smart, don't invest in an obsolete platform where the chance of you getting scam is high.

People nowadays trust IEO because it's way easier and safer to invest, if you will study and compare the output of IEO and ICO projects this year, you will see that there's a big difference and you will see that IEO is already taking charge in the market now.

Participating in IEO you know exactly in which exchange the token will be added. I think this is the main reason for the popularity of IEO.

That does not matter that the crypto market is going well or not. i asked that why IEOs are more reliable than ICOs because most of the people are saying the answer in their different ways that the coins or tokens are already listed on exchange, I know that but apart from that reason is there any benefit that give the profit to the bounty hunter. Because in IEOs the prices are too low that some time it broke the hearts of the bounty hunters. and they do not even participate in the ongoing great bounties.

ICOs were also good in some ways if we starts taking in IEOs the price is too low and bounty hunters can't even participate in the compaigns and the time periods of the IEOs is too short that when you start the compaign before you know that what you need to do in which compaign and it ends. means it runs for almost 3 to 4 weeks not more. and it very difficult to find some good IEOs that give profit to the hunters.

What do you say about that ? ???

To be honest, it's a bullshit project. And you will never get a return on your investment in that project. Forget it and look for another better project

This is exactly i am talking about. there are many IEOs along with the few ICOs that are still in the market using their scamming tricks and have sacammed so many new and few others bounty hunters. I have seen so many groups in which the team members of that projects scammed their hunters and they have lost a heavy amount.

How to differentiate between good and fruad IEOs and ICOs?

I think the right term is evolving.

So we went from ICO -> IEO in what about a year? That's very quick in my opinion. But what do you expect when ICO has been exploited by many projects? Those involved in crypto will have to think of something a new business model, that's why IEO was born.

And now ICO are burned, and IEO are very successful, at least 90% if I'm not mistaken really rakes a lot of money because of the trading platforms and it's reputation.

And the price of that token will be at least 10 times lower than the IEO price. Hopefully you will not lose too much when investing in this project

I'm familiar with so many ICO projects. But what is IEO? Can you describe a little bit? Thank you!

Most investors are following those big exchanges that offers IEOs instead of taking chances with ICOs. The reigning era of ICO's almost over as this evolving things like IEOs are taking over. Many investors are no longer interested as more ICOs are scamming people's money.

Learning more about this two fields of investment is very important as you are going to put your hard-earned money and make sure that it will grow after some time.

In my opinion ICO is more than scam in format.  Investors are more at risk in ICO formats. Loss are higher than Profit. That's why investors rejected ICO format . This is why the IEO format was born. I personally welcome the IEO format. I think most investors feel safe to invest in the IEO format.

But perhaps IEO is the best option right now. IEO brings a lot of benefits to investors and their information security is very good.Your opinion is right IEO is actually just an upgrade of the ICO, but it makes us feel safer. sometimes ICOs have too many scams.

Not all previous ICO projects run IEO, only those who really need and have good demand, and also to support the further development of products or services.

Perhaps IEO is better then ICO, and what about STO? Now there are so many shortcuts, but in general they are all projects that need money to develop their product. IEO`s are safer cause they are checked by the exchange itself, but investors shouldn`t relay only on that, check the project yourself before you invest your money.

maybe that is a drawback that ICO has. In addition, one of the most important things is after the sale, the token must have a price and a place of exchange. this has become one of the things that be expected investors, or all parties involved.
ICO who have cooperation with the market might be able to compete with IEO. however, ICOs that do not have it will clearly be unable to compete in terms of sales with IEO. indirectly the market for the IEO project has been determined, so investors prefer to invest in IEO over ICO.

It's not only about a trend but IEO is also one of the best way gather funds from investor from coin sale hosted by big exchange such Binance. As you can see, IEO on big exchange such binance always sold out and once the coin listed on the binance, the price is not fall.

I believe investors are prefer invest on IEO than ICO right now.

ICOs will always be better than IEOs given things were different. During ICOs project has freedom to raise a given amount but IEOs has made many projects spend their money for exchange IEO yet get nothing from the IEO

If we are seeing it from the project perspective, indeed ICOs is better because of its freedom and efficiency.
But the problem here is, many ICOs failed to meet up their promises and leaving the investor behind without any news or development.
The reason why IEOs is highly recommended because it can filter the project to a certain level of trust, even if the project does not meet up its target.
After the sale phase ends, they still have a place to trade the token and the investor is able to liquidate their token as soon as it gets listed.

Because many ICO were not success in the past, so peoples choose to invest on IEO now.
One of IEO advantages is the token will be listed on the exchange who launch the IEO,
so we will be able to sell it short time after the IEO completed.

There are a lot of causes that don't make the price down in the well-known exchanges like Binance, Kucoin and more. The big investors also prefer to invest in the IEO due to the mentioned reasons, why they should choose to invest in the ICO if the reputable exchange handles the token sale with better promises than teams gave in the ICO.  The listing after the successful IEO is a best side of investing in the IEO and I am sure many crypto token sale investors will agree with my opinion.

IEO is the same as short-term investment, if you choose a bad IEO you will not benefit from your investment there, but the fact is that today's investors are smarter and will not put their money in the wrong place.

IEOs gives investors peace of mind in terms of participating because they are sure there won't be stories like exit scam which is rampant in ICOs. So looking at IEO from different perspectives, it is evident it's far better than ICOs because there is sure listing and if done on a good exchange will reward it investors handsomely. Furthermore, just like ICOs there could be IEOs which are just after funds and nothing to offer, thus one needs to be careful too.

Both IEO and ICO have positive and negative side, some time amny ICO always delays for listing on exchange market, make many investor disappointed about their investment on ICOs.

But now there are also several sales phases in the IEO, so they have to wait a long time when they want to enter the exchange, a great IEO always gives the best to investors and sales are always fast.

Undoubtedly that is correct, there are advantage and disadvantage between ICO and IEO. But it seems to me IEO is more profitable than ICO, some investors prefer to invest in with IEO. As you above said, most investors disappointed about investment on ICOs, of course, it caused some of them preferred to invest again with IEO instead of wasting their valuable time with ICO.

IEO, This is a business concept that is applied to increase direct sales through exchanges that have been agreed with a sales contract, between the coin sales party with a sales place, meaning, this can be said of the latest generation, and for now more interested by buyers, sometimes if there is a very good development, the token can be directly received for further exchanges, on the other hand, to attract buyers' interest, because of the fame of an exchange, as well as the user's trust in the exchange, sometimes buyers judge it that way, that's what I discuss in context small, for the rest, let's discuss.

IEO systems provide a sense of security to investors because when a project conducts a public sale they involve a third party namely the exchange, that's why IEO is so heavily discussed.
but the thing to note is, IEO must be held on a credible exchange to close the opportunity for scammers to act,

IEO becomes popular not because of that, every token that does IEO is guaranteed to enter the stock exchange and it makes investors feel safer because before ICO becomes a tool to find money for scammers, IEOs will be the choice so that investors feel safer in investing.

The time of ICO has passed because there was a lot of scam. In IEO, there is much less scam because exchanges do it. If the exchange is worried about its reputation, then scam tokens will not appear.

If I have to pick one I would surely go for ieo. If its on some trusted exchange. Somehow the trust factors is higher in ieos than icos. But it doesn't mean anything. If the project behind it , that's all matters.

There are no significant differences between ICOs and IEOs. I see IEOs as the transformation of ICOs where the amount  of tokens sold can be seen by investors.  I don't really see any specific impact IEOs are making in the entire crypto space.  Most exchange platforms that run IEOS do not really check the necessary information they need to authenticate the genuineness of the projects before launching them on their platforms. I don't really see IEOs solving the challenges ICOs were having.  

IEO attracts more users because it is done through exchanges, so it is safer than regular ICO projects. Passing through the exchanges before the IEO implementation, the exchanges will moderate the project, and after the IEO finished, it will be listed directly on that exchange.
That's great when you don't need to wait for the development team to search and list on you didn't know before.

And also don't wait too long for negotiations between the developer team and the exchanger regarding the listing. The long negotiations made investors uneasy and could lose investor confidence so that if market conditions were not good, it could trigger large-scale sales which resulted in prices

The advantage over ICO of most IEOs are the fact that their tokens can be traded right away after the sales are done. Yes this is the benefit of IEO investor over ICO, they can monetize the tokens with a profit since most IEOs produce good value when the trading activity starts. ICO on the otherhand, have some negative approach by the community and too risky since they handle their own sales sometime it is just a hoax info or probably will exit if they already claimed some funds.

Yes IEO now more popular but it not impressed me if there add a lower volume exchange IEO even at this time i do not follow IEO. Actually at this time cheap market i want buy some coins for the future profit which coin already have added more exchange with expensive developing.

There are lots of cheap altcoins, and it's a lot better than IEO. so we don't need to get in the way to join IEO. Just buying altcoin top 20 is enough

in my opinion only ieo dat hosted by big exchange like huobi binance and bittrex dat will be a good coin in the future ieo on cheap exchange mostly are useless and not good im curious which investor buy ieo on unknown or small exchange

IEO from a large exchanger is usually more legit because a large exchanger must have verified the project or the developer team. IEO which comes from large exchangers sometimes promises large profits at the beginning of the listing but for the long term, we have to do more research because it could be in the middle of the road, the project stops

Actually ico and ieo have the same goal of raising funds for the crypto project, it's just that their ways are different.

If I prefer IEO because is connected to the famous crypto exchange platform that needs to protect its reputation. They will filtered and checked before being published, which makes it significantly more difficult to deceive users, giving credibility to the project and security for users.

We have the exchange as the checker and if they would generate more unsuccessful IEO that will affect their reputation and their volume might go down, so those exchange that are successful now would not risk their reputation to list bad projects in their IEO platform.

Why people trust Binance over other exchanges in IEO is because of their good reputation, and there's a hype in this site so they can expect an early return. ICO is already dead, I mean literally dead (sorry to say) as most of the new created coins now are already coming from IEO.

IEO, unlike ICO, gives a guarantee of listing and public sales on the exchange, and as we know with you that investors value their deposits and if there is a guarantee, then this will work.

ICO's are dead for sure. I don't see any ICO program nowadays, all I see is IEO's on big or some terrible exchanges. They can't get funds either way but IEO's at least secure the exchange that they will be listed on so investors consider this before they start thinking about investing. I prefer none of them as even IEO's fail to give you profit, even on the biggest exchanges.

The only guarantee of the IEO is releasing a new coin to exchange which organizes IEO campaign. You don't have certainty that price will be above the IEO price. Well know Bittrex exchange shows us that IEOs had false start. Below list presents price during and after IEO on the Bittrex exchange:
- Raid - the first IEO and finished as farce due to discovering fake cooperation with external company (huge pros of the IEO as Bittrex made research)
- VeriBlock - IEO price: 0.1$, currently 0.009$
- Ocean Protocol  - IEO price: 0.12$, currently 0.034$
- Vodi X - IEO price: 0.015$, currently 0.0013$
- Standard Tokenization Protocol - IEO price: 0.01$, currently 0.007$

As we can see all IEOs campaign in the Bittrex have been finished failure from investor point of view. To sum up keep in mind that IEO isn't guarantee of profit at all. This is only new form for crypto startup to received money from stakeholders, because ICO has very bad famous since the last bubble in 2017 year.

After the fundraising, many ICOs often did not fulfill their promises, and if their coins began to be tradable, often on little-known exchanges at low prices. With IEO, on the contrary, the coin is almost guaranteed to be tradable on the exchange on which it was purchased, investors have much more confidence in IEO.

right now what I am trending is that IEO and many fundraising programs prefer to use the IEO method because it is faster and benefits from raising funds to participating investors.

When the market is shoved with all these massive amount of IEO it is to be expected that some of the project will fail to holds or even increase their token price. IEO is not a guarantee that the project will success, the price of the tokens could also rely on the performance of the project. For example is CRPT that has a really good performance lately because the project is delivering something the community wants.
If you are expecting all of those IEO to be success, just forgot that. It's all just like every startups or company that tries to start after all most of them will fail and the ones remain will stand even stronger.
Although it can't be denied that IEO brings more success rate rather than ICO but that still doesn't guarantee.

I totally agree with you. Let's assume we have the next crypto bubble and FOMO on the all market. My concern is that many exchanges could abuse IEO to take profit and don't care about new project, because IEO has good reputation.

ICO hadba bad reputation due to scam and the numbers of ICO that had failed a few years ago. That is why IEO had came up where the token sale occurs in the exchange. Not to mention, in ICO once the sale is comple, sometimes you will have to wait for months before the coin/token gets listed in an exchange.

In terms of security, IEO is relatively better than ICO or STO especially if the exchange holding the said crowdfunding scheme has a good reputation. Convenience-wise, IEO is also better since the exchange facilitating the token sale will instantly list the token on its platform once the crowdfunding has concluded. However, not all platforms are perfect. Given that a majority of cryptocurrency exchanges are centralized, there is the possibility of them getting hacked. Also, since they are not decentralized, they take fees for facilitating the token sale. We believe another feasible option is creating an investment protection mechanism for maintaining ICO security and quality. :)

Compared to ICO, I think IEO has a better reputation.  Although IEO cannot guarantee the success of a project, investors are more interested in it.  Sometimes they don't care about the project, the team and even what is offered.
Almost every project that collaborates with exchange top on IEO, they will get results that are on target.

Yes, I often witness IEO in great exchanges reaching as significant breakthroughs as in Binance, Houbi, and Kucoin. Investors prefer IEO in large exchanges that have a good account and high ROI. ICO trend has dramatically dropped because most projects neglect to develop, and there are many scams.

Using IEO is much easier to attract investors who will invest in the company, because if the company is new and no one knows about this company, few investors will only want to invest in such a company, and if the same company conducts IEO on the top exchange, then investors will invest in such a company, because they will trust the reputation of the exchange on which IEO will be held.

I believe that IEO is still safer than ICO. Because the finances of a start-up company are on the stock exchange, and deceive people just will not work. It turns out the type of intermediary. I'm for IEO.

the risk of investing in IEO tends to be a little compared to investing in ICO, you can see hundreds of ICO projects in 2018 until 2019 now they are no longer profitable, but the emergence of IEO has attracted market investment, there are many participants involved in it including investors easily get short profits on IEO.

Yes, you are right, we have seen many projects wiped out and which we don't see any value to the coins. So instead of focusing on ICO's it is very good to invest in IEO's because they are getting some profits. Binance IEO's has given good profit to the investors and most of the ICO's don't have any value in the current market.

There are several ICOs that can reach the target because the project is good and is supported by a trusted developer team. Not all ICOs are bad and not all IEOs are good and profitable. In my opinion, it is better to focus on projects that are undertaken because IEO has not been proven as a profitable investment for the long term

It was Binance who made the IEOs worthwhile. I can not understand why IEO is so valued. If Binance had an ICO, everyone would be looking for an ICO. I admit you have some superiority, but not enough to be magnified. Now IEO is a trend in coin sales  and psychologies are now focused on it. I am not against  IEOs but I can not accept the false exaggeration too.

IEO's time is gradually coming to an end. Today I read the news that Binance will reduce the number of trading pairs of projects participating in the binance launchpad (BTT, ONE, WIN, ERD). And the latest projects are unlikely to be called successful by anyone. Unless they can manage to conduct an IEO for the TON project.

ICOs do not get much attention as before as when entering the exchange people just dump their coins and make the value close to 0. This causes tons of dead projects and early seed investors make a loss. IEOs are better than ICOs in a way that the exchange that this asset will be listed on is decided. They will not look for exchanges for months and make people wait.

ICO - no info people sell tokens.
IEO - exchange sell tokens, good trust and security.

IEO better than ICO right now because many investor interested with IEO than have invest money on ICO, last month Binance open for IEO and have many investor take part become investor on perlin IEO.
