Hello Everyone, today i will be dropping some hints with regards to the New Model in the Crypto Space and i think this have the possibilities as well as the capabilities of replacing the Initial Exchange Offering (IEO). Remember in the early days we have to queue up, set our alarm in other to participate in the Initial Coin Offering (ICO). But since 2019, there have been a shift in hands whereby IEO becoming the other of the day by replacing ICO's.

I came across Initial Model Offering (IMO) and i think this too have the possibility of taking over from IEO come 2020. This might definitely be the new revolution because of the way it is being design... Now this takes us to "What is IMO"?
https://i.imgur.com/UT1QI9k.jpg[/img]]https://i.imgur.com/UT1QI9k.jpg (ftp://[img)

IMO is the revamped "IEO" that continues to be privately funded as the project progresses, which varies from 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or even longer as the project continues to developed. In this way, exchanges and investors can continue to withdraw as the project progresses.
Phased batch investment greatly reduces the investment risk of investors. At the same time, the project party is encouraged and supervised, so that the project can develop healthily and ultimately return investors.
Therefore, each project needs to be excellent enough, and the IMO Eco-Platform will strictly control and take certain guarantee measures.

The beauty about IMO, Unlike IEO that occurs in the wallet itself. Rather, the IMO Ecology consists of two(2) parts; the IMO wallet and the IMO exchange.
The IMO Wallet: This can be used for digital asset storage and IMO Private equity investment. That is the presale occurs in the IMO wallet App.
The IMO Exchange: This is a trading platform where you can exchange/trade your digital assets. All tokens/coins being sold in the IMO Wallet App are automatically listed in the IMO Exchange.

About The IMO Ecology
Each blockchain project needs to go through the links as fundraising - development –market. The whole process takes 1-2 years to complete while it is too long for investors. In order to solve this problem, IMO ecological model have emerged. To put it simply, IMO is a high-quality private placement platform which enables projects to obtain investment periodically through continuous limited private placement, and the project will continue to be privately funded with development progresses and stage results. Generally, private placement activities last for 3 months, 6 months, 1 year or even longer. IMO adopts various advanced mathematical models to control the private placement and market of the project at different stages. During the private placement period, the exchange and investors observe the development of the project and decide whether to invest or exit as the project progresses. Periodically batch investments greatly reduce the risks of investors. In the meantime, it also gives encouragement and benign supervision to the project side so that it can develop healthily and eventually give investors returns. Hence IMO ecological platform will strictly select and check to make sure the quality of each project be excellent, and take certain measures to ensure the interests of investors.

I'm always open to new ideas, hence I've gone through this IMO write up twice, trying to figure out the advantages it has over IEO but yet it's hard to actually spot them. Can you please elaborate in simple terms why you think this IMO have an edge over IEO? what drawbacks posed by IEO is curbed by IMO. 

I will quickly drop this here, Rather than ending funding in a single shot like IEO, IMO conducts small tokens sales multiple times. For example, a token sales can be divided into 100 times or more. A sale of 100 times inevitably means that sale lasts that long. Over time, the project can raise more funds than IEO.

This is another new idea which can be the replacement of IEO whenever the time has come and nobody invests there anymore.
Same as the ICO when most investors are no longer trusting the scheme that's why when an IEO came out, everyone rushed to invest on it and took profit. I'll read more about this idea.

it's my first time hearing IMO, can you share what is the first project that using IMO?
i think IEO still the best from all the token offering right now, because the coins get listed to exchange immediately after the IEO ended.

It is just a prolonged IEO if I am not mistaking right? So basically the same as it was done by ICOs, when sales were splitted into several rounds. But should it have another name or is it just a multiple round IEO.

I think this is a good way, but if it isn't done by a large exchange the results will not be maximal. same as IEO, if IEO is not in a big exchange, in the end it will only be one failed project. so if a large exchange routinely launches lunchpad such as binance using this method, maybe projects that partner with it will become projects that are of interest to investors.

well ever since the failure of ICOs to scam people by the end of 2017 when the altcoin pumps and the hype died, they have been changing the name and trying to scam people under a different banner. so far we have seen a couple of them including "IEOs" and they all come along, live a very short life before they end up dead like ICOs which they are all the same as!

the problem has never been with the way they raise funds or the name. the problem has always been with lack of innovation and use cases for the thing they create!

when in doubt, compare things with bitcoin. did bitcoin raise funds? no. did bitcoin do any initial blah blah offering? no. what is the most successful currency by far? bitcoin!

It is not a bad idea and might be worthy of trial. From what I observed, the proposed model has good ideology but it can still be exploited by developers.

There will be a percentage of funding sought by the team from investors in the first quarter or 2 depending on the plan. If projects keeps striving well, they can seek for more funding from investors who are satisfied with progress and will to invest more. But This can still be manipulated by developers inflating the development amount needed. Eg: if hardcap in IEOs for Project Alpha is $2m, in IMO, developer will inflate first quarter funding to 2m or more. Cash out and still exit

ICO, IEO and now IMO! Lmao!!

Private equity market in cryptospace is suffering due to the lack of credibility. We need address that issue first! Otherwise nothing can really save it from dying! This IMO is just an altered form of SIP from an investor's point of view, but with some little tweaks and heavy jargons!

Not all aspects of decentralization is great! To bring back credibility in to ICO market, we really need a centralized authority which will verify, regulate and protect consumer interest in this market! Otherwise, even the top MBA brains will fail to attract investors in this market within a year or two!

wow, after the hype on IEO decreasing, now another crowdfunding methode show up called IMO
i hope this will bring a funding optionis on crypto project safer, better and faster

IEOs are used by scammers also. Scammers always find a way to fool gullible investors. That's baby we need another way to secure our investment. So what's the current project that using this new way of crowdfunding.  Looking at the site, it's on Chinese version for now. I can't understand everything it says. Hope they provide English version.

hmm this sounds interesting, but i cant help but feel like its just a new hype term...
this is like a DAO, no? a smart contract of some sort with funds that release as teams meet milestones
otherwise this is just an IEO isnt it? should have some kind of comparison infographic or something : /

Well I thought IEO was or is still the best out there till I came across IMO... IEO is good though but there is need to explore new options like what IMO is giving out to those participating in the platform presale as it is usually called...
I have seen Projects like Health Care Ecosystem Platform (HCE), SkyHash (XRG), World Business Token (BTE), Multi-Decentralized Domain Name system (MDNS), Initial Model Offering (IMO) and host of many others currently on in the platform...

It's a good option. It solves some of the problems like early dumping of coin and the team taking all the money and going scam. Going scam is an intention and may not be easily avoided but when there is low supply, the price does not decreases sharply. One of the shortcome could be if not studied and placed according to the need, the team may face cash deficient as a fixed amount of money is only released. This could even be solved with the governance of coin, investors should be able to vote in order to release next batch of coins to the team or not.

Sounds good actually but this isn't try and tested yet. I dont see much difference of this on IEO since wallet is consist also of crypto asset that might be directed into portfolio but the good thing here is that it was set up via wallet. If this can handle by big multi wallet firm then it can be good method for crowdfunding as well. Thanks for the heads up OP.

the concept of a good idea, but whether this will bring change and hype people will choose IMO or people will still like IEO? same as before when still using the ICO system, and suddenly there was a new breakthrough namely STO but the demand was not much, the hype was only temporary and in the end people preferred to return to ICO. After that, a new concept emerged, IEO, which is currently the most commonly used.
however I support your idea, because it's something new and unique, which can improve the type of investment the old model (now).

I think it makes no difference, IEO or IMO as a whole look the same to me. provide gradual funding based on project development ?, maybe that's a good idea. but have you ever thought, it could be that the development team lied about all the developments so far ?. when investors believe, they will get more money and it will get worse. maybe for some people this will provide supervision, and can reduce the risk of a scam project. but for me such a thing is impossible, what kind of supervision would they do? if what you mean is to watch the project work without checking, that's not supervision.

That sounds like a cool idea, but wouldn't it be vulnerable to angry investors abusing the system? Even if the launch was successful, the price can drop for multiple reasons that have nothing to do with the team. Team would be interested only manipulating the token price to keep the value up until they got paid. It would need to have a legal advisor oversight and that would cost more money.

The IMO platform have a way to help curb and also control the price drop from angry investors. It is difficult for price to drop that much because only 10% is released for investors while the remaining 90% is released upon inviting new investors or sharing your referral links for others to buy through it... So therefore 10% unlocked, 90% locked which is subject to gradual release as investors share the referral links to their friends and they tend to get 5% USDT bonus, also get 2% bonus unlock of the token bought through their referrals. So the remaining 90% is unlocked daily, while if you want to unlock more, you will have to invite more through your referral links... This sounds like a game changer because your referral links can actually fetch you more than your initial investments before the complete unlock...

The fact that funding is allowed to go on for up to 1 year while investors can pull out makes no sense to me.

Doesn't that essentially mean that funds cannot be utilised on the project itself until 1 year later?

Then, what would be the point of having an initial offering at all if it delays the progress of development by that long? And what incentive will investors have to invest in something that won't generate them income for a year? Makes no sense imo.

This is a new funding model with a phased concept that is funded privately during the project, which can take around 3 months, 5 months 1 year or even longer. Investments like this will reduce investment risk for investors because the project will also be watched closely until the project is completed.

But to replace IEO at this time is still not in my opinion. IEO is still the best for now if IEO is on a large Exchange that has high credibility which is trusted by many people. IMO still needs time to develop.

Just make it simple, this is ICO+IEO.
The first phase of offering is executed directly on their website and wallet app after the first phase ends the second phase will be done in exchange.
If you want to participate, bear it in your mind this is going to be another ICO project at its first phase. The fund is collected directly to their pocket and there is no assessment from the third party because they are doing it personally.

Have Initial Model Offering(IMO) launching to public? I don't hear about this platform and right now is the first time I know with Initial Model Offering(IMO), by the way how is IMO working and how to invest with IMO, will be the same like ICO invest first on phase ICO sale round then waiting until ICO ended before listing at exchange market or not? we have know detail or IMO before could replace of IEO.

I must have misunderstood something because that doesn't make any sense. So if i want to sell more then 10% of the tokens i already bought, i need work for them and invite people in order to do that? Why would i want to invest into something that requires more work after i give them money?

Well it might look this way to you, but getting to understand the fact the there is more benefits to investors if they have more invitation. The idea I think is to reduce the price from falling dip since Presale is on daily basis and Project development continue still so I might probably get more bonus unlock via invitation as well as get more USDT reward as well so it a game changer.

Something new, I knew that IEO has already exhausted itself, let's see how this function will help the market, I think that also not for long

Well, we never can tell... When IEO started just few exchange where into it but by the time the top exchanges venture into it, it became something everyone wants to do and participate in. So in the crypto space it is best never to write anyone off and keep watch to see how it unfolds. IMO might be the revolution in 2020, we never can tell.

If this IMO of a thing can fix lack of funds in new projects this days then i am in for real, few good projects i knew of are suffering in terms of funds needed to continue the project development, hopefully IMO will work better than IEO did this year

While the name sounds a bit deceptive when it introduces the word 'model' instead of the typical terms of 'coin' and 'exchange', any new ideas are always welcome as long as it smoothens the procedure involved between the project team and the investors. Also, the mutli-phase sale will also benefit the project as it provides a basis for the team to work on, to show progress and rope in more investors.

Sound like a good idea, recently IEO is not so great like before and this is too quick if we have to compare with ICO Era, although IEO is still safer but new projects that find it hard to list IEO on binance and gate always end up in poor funds results so if IMO can change this it will be great

I don't know whether IMO will be as successful as IEO on the exchange? many also say IMO is the best selling solution in the future, but I don't know what the benefits of IMO are. Will many projects use IMO?
Because I think IEO is already good at selling safely and successfully.

Maybe it will be trending. But I think that whatever the method of collecting funds if the benefits for investors are not clear, why should I put money there. I am not a hypocrite, as an investor, I have the right to benefit from what I invest, whether in the short term or long term. What the developer can offer so that we investors can be interested. Do not be too complicated in raising funds, just offer what benefits can be achieved for token holders and realize with the best team.

What will make this industry to progress are new ideas and innovation as will work towards perfection. If this new model will protect the interest of investors force projects team to be accountable and work out their plan, then I think it's good. Any model that will bring trust back to crowdfunding of crypto project is welcome.

I am very positive about the development and new breakthroughs in the crypto world and now you are showing IMO as a new breakthrough, a new way of investing in crypto. Personally I am very supportive considering that after seeing what is offered through IMO, it is very good to have its predecessors (IEO and ICO). But here is the question, how do these IMO exchangers and IMO wallets get connected to each other?
and Will this IMO provide a special exchanger or will each exchanger provide IMO in every market feature?

There is a lot of information that I don't understand and also some things that don't make sense. I personally still choose IEO as a destination to invest in new projects, the exchange also has terms and analysis in every new project that is listed on the IEO. So my opinion that IMO is the same as IEO and there is no interesting or better offer than IEO.

Its a very brilliant idea and those who said they can't see the difference between IMO and IEO have not do research on IMO very well, this idea will sure solve few IEO problems, lets wait and see

I like the idea about this IMO platform but i can't find a good details about the project, firstly whitepaper is missing on the website and secondly no single details about who the teams are, which developer will be stupid enough to trust such exchange?

Tbh the names are becoming more and more fancy
Just the design of it is different

As regardless you are ico ipo ieo imo
Its the same
It just look to crowdfund for projects
Well of course every different types of crowdfunding method have pros and cons

Anything that works better than IEO can replace IEO, we need more info about this IMO, information is very limited and it looks like a Chinese exchange....imoex.top and i can't see teams as well

It is not OK to see faster replacements of ICO occur every month, I am sure the new IMO model will prevent the scam projects to enter the IMO ecosystem. New ideas are always welcome and we will see what kind of treatment crypto investors will show towards the IMO. IEOs have done a wonderful job with the eliminating the hassle of getting listed on random( sometimes small) exchanges.

I'm having a hard time trying to understand the concept of IMO. Is "IMO" an abbreviation of Initial Mining Offering? If it is, I kind of like the concept, miners mint the coins that investors are willing to Crow-fund a share of, the contract is forfeited from the owner of the company and turned into a smart-contract. The smart-contract becomes a faucet whereas proof of work mining is needed in order to mint the offering tokens. Investor risk is supposedly completely negated. I'm not sure if I fully understand but that is my interpretation of an IMO, from the best of my knowledge.

I think everyone will follow the trend, be it IMO or IEO if among them it is profitable for investment or has its own advantages it might be used by many people. especially fraud, for example IMO, IEO or ICO can overcome the problem of fraud, it might be able to attract investor confidence back.

I also think this way, that which can attract the attention of investors and is also able to make a good contribution, then the investment method will certainly attract many people. then they can become the next investment trend

Can you mention which brilliant idea you mean? I just want to know whether it makes sense or not.
I was only traumatized when I heard these words "that continues to be privately funded as the project progresses".

We never can tell what the future hold for the cryptocurrency marketplace, but here is a team who have come out with their own model to make a difference in the cryptocurrency space. When IEO came out, no one accepted it. I remember when LATOKEN, and other exchanges started it which gain little attention, but when the Big Players (BINANCE and others) got involved, it move the market and we saw a positive feedback as well. So i think IMO will need more support as well since this Idea is quite new in the marketplace.

The idea of IMO ECOSYSTEM platform will definitely replace the Initial exchange offering(IEO) the imo system is design in a way that project on presale is already trading higher on the exchange which is profitable than buying an IEO which would end up non profitable.  The unlock through referring is also attractive and profitable.

This is good but I don't think it will replace the IEO! IEO is becoming more popular day by day. IMO is not the first that claims to replace the IEO system! There was IAO by Velic project and right now in Hydax exchange, there has IGO the new method! Whatever comes, I don't think they can succeed to replace the IEO sale, but I appreciate all the new ideas in crypto!

How can you so sure that IMO will definitely replace the IEO idea? Do you think all the IMO plan will succeed? No way! There will be drawback projects too, rather investing in reputed exchange's IEO mean profit confirm. I will stick on IEO, let's see how IMO replace it!

why do they have to complicate all these.

if exchanges are still part of this big scam, its till not going to work since its the same thing with IEO and ICO. the problem in crypto isn't the funding to the project but the accountability of the team of developers which the system can't put these developers to finish the project and continue developing. even if they get funded with billions, they still can be scam if they delay projects and not follow roadmaps as promised.

In General, an interesting proposal.But here we need to gain trust.While it is stored in the IEO.But as an alternative it is quite a worthy option.

I read about this Platform and IMO ecosystem is able to do what most exchanges couldn't do . IEO this year on most exchanges it wasn't profitable and IMO is launching a presale which is also trading on the exchange for high price this is better than most of the IEO. This is quite anticipating and profitable. 

I have followed the telegram team and some project information pages.  I realize we don't have a whitepaper yet.  The exchange imo platform has mobile apps on both android and IOS platforms, which is great.

I have checked their website and from the looks of it, I think it has a potential to replace IEO because the idea of IMO is to help the project to get a proper amount of fundraising, from their website you can see the majority of projects have 365 phases of sale. unlike IEO that is only once for all, IMO gives the project a chance to gather the funds from multiple sales. and the investors can not sell or withdraw their token until the end of the sale.

imo  ? cool  . this is something that is new to my eyes but i dont think that it can replace ieo's and i dont think that bothe ieo and imo can replace the original ico's  because people still invest on it and others will be nothing if not because of the concept of ico  .   but in the case of the battle between imo and ieo ,  imo can stand a chance if ever it has something new to offer that cant be found on ieo  but so far ieo is still running smoothly  .

Why don't they just do the ICO with escrow after all this time cryptocurrency is now regulated. This time I think we can take turns too like investors are the ones going to ask for the KYC of these developers, I think its fair to see how much sure are these people that they are going to keep their words. We don't end this IMO, IEO anymore, lets just kick out the exchanges out in the equation. This IEO is jsut their way to ask money from developers and in a way stealing money from investors.

Very interesting. I've just heard of token sales systems like this. In my opinion, probably, IEO sales of tokens will also be replaced by IMO. But I'm not sure that IMO will be free of scam projects.

The IMO model of token sale doesn't look bad compared to the IEOs but I doubt it will be enough for the investors to prefer the IMO over IEO. IMO ecosystem should separate the timing of token sales in different stages but it is good for the big investors. Btw, they have 2000 investors cap after I check their site and patient investors will be happy to invest in the IMO.

I don't think there are any projects that use IMO sales yet and maybe there hasn't been an experiment in anything on IMO,
And IEO is still the main at this time IEO and IMO which will be prioritized for investors to start on investment projects.
Let's look forward.

I thank you for sharing your share, i' m aware of the potential, but i' d like to know more about how to join IMO, and you can tell me what' s going to be IMO? I hope this IMO will be the next market trend, which will help investors earn more profits. I appreciate you.  :D

That's great to know that there is new fund raising that will evolve in the crypto world again, just hoping that it will boost the confidence and gain the trust of investors again, as we all know that there's a lot of crypto investors who has been tired and there were some who completely change shift and rather they are just investing in the outside crypto. So, hope this will help again.

the system is always developed. even IEO I think is still not successful in developing the crypto investment market. making investor confidence increase for the IEO system I think has been successful because cooperation with large exchanges helps reduce investor doubts. but for the new system, as discussed, we have not seen whether it will be a solution for the new crypto market. because in my opinion, ICO is still the best way I've ever followed.

Well, who could have thought that IEO will replace ICO? No one predicted it. IMO is quite different from those other platforms you mentioned above because IMO is a working products, tested and it's already giving numerous projects what they deserve in the Crypto space... IMO doesn't stop Project from listing in other top exchange in the Crypto space. IMO is giving us a different scenarios of how to invest and make profits, Invite more persons to participate in Presale and also make profits.
This is truly what the Crypto space needs to recover in 2020....

You talked about IEO as though IEO doesn't have their own flaws over the past few months or years rather...
A platform is meant to experience flaws, challenges, learn from it and device a better way to improve on it as well. IMO truly already have a working exchange with huge liquidity and order book where you can sell your Presale tokens anytime and also IMO have the IMO Wallet App where users can buy Presale at anytime and sell in the IMO exchange if you chooses to catch out with reliable profits.

I read about the IMO plans that they screen every projects before listing them for IMO on the exchange, still scammers can still be able to gain access since we are in an era of scamming face to face with no law against scammers that shows faces on the internet

Absolutely this is not correct. I think you need to read or probably do more research about IMO. The platform is working already or the platform have been working for a while now and it has gain more traction since it's inspection and numerous projects have listed their presale on IMO wallet App while trading is currently ongoing in IMO exchange. It's a fair game plan to me because I can as well see on the IMO exchange and I can as well refer more peeps through my invitation links to get more bonus Which is a fair profits to any investors out there.
Currently I have seen Projects like MDNS, BTE, HCE and host of others currently Trading in IMO exchange while presale still on in IMO wallet App. Fair one

You have rightly noticed that there is a lack of trust among society. And if many people remembered ICO as a way for scammers to deceive investors, then IMO has so far a clean reputation, which will attract more developers and followers. And with the development of decentralized systems, interest in blockchain startups will grow. It remains to see IMO in action

The main problem right now isn't any of that. In 2017/18 you could put out a crap idea and people would still fund it. You could even put out seriously shit projects and blatant scams and tell people it was a scam. And guess what? People would still fund it. Some knowingly, some just because they didn't even read up.

But today you could put a sure winner and people won't invest.

The difference is sentiment. Nobody is investing now. Not retail investors anyway.

They could freely do that because the lack of law enforcement with something that happens on the internet and most of the time the authority doesn't take it seriously. But honestly, IMO won't replace IEO anytime soon. What I mean is, both the crowdfunding model could just exist and people will have the option. The very first thing people consider when it comes to investing in IEO is the fact that it was hosted by popular exchange and they automatically have the mindset of a project that is hosted by large companies more specifically exchange is legit although this IMO model could just do that.

IEO still works well in this time, so I think it wouldnt replacable by other offering even IMO
look at the big exchange already offered their IEO. it means that IEO would be becomed popular

in the others side, we actually dont need much about what offering type to crypto
but we need the good project, no matter the offering type, if the project is shit, it would be shit too

Why does this sound like a pyramid scheme to me? investors will have their funds locked and receive only %10 of their investment and rest of the remaining %80 will be unlock through referring someone ??? how is this different from all this pyramid scheme who force investors to refer someone to earn!
and i heard hunters too will face the same compulsory lock of their reward, is this udso trading anywhere? well i hope those who participate in this campaign will enjoy their %10 ;D

Hello mate, what exactly are you referring to? Do you just jump around and write what makes you happy or what? This thread has been here even before they launched the Bounty campaign. I did not mention anything relating to USD0 here, so why saying or discussing what's not here? If you have been deceived or you got burnt while trying to make some quick bucks, don't pour your hate here mate. It doesn't tell good of you. It simply shows you are an angry Hunter who probably didn't do some research before jumping in to participate in whatever you participated in.

Please read my previous thread, it will help you in your Bounty Hunting Quest

Next it'll be IWO, Initial Whatever Offering, with 'whatever' being whatever scammers can dream up to scam people into believing that their 'project' is worth investing in.  That's where all of this seems to be headed now that all the people have been fooled in the ico space. 

There's a sucker born every minute, but there seems to be an overabundance in the world of crypto because no matter what gets thrown at them time after time, there always seem to be more suckers trying to catch it each time.  And the worse the project, the more suckers come out of the woodwork.  It's absolutely amazing.

So anyone heard from IMO project. I once heard and saw them a lot of signature post about them and social posts but I dont like the way their promote it. It is somehow like an IEO but this one is like copying what's done already. For those who joined signature or campaign of it, can I ask news what happened to their progress?

First, am not your mate, i hope that sunk in, and about my post, no i don't just go about writing what makes me happy because clearly writing about the deceit of this project to hunters is not among what makes me happy ::),

And if you were that clever enough, you would realize that i did not only talk about usdo but also about the pyramid structure of imo project but since you are so defensive you quickly pick the part that itches you the most,

And do note that i never took part in the bounty and am i glad i didn't, i mean who does that? Lock up participants reward for a year, those who participated made the choice to,  but it doesn't stop anyone from discussing about it,
This is an open platform incase you haven't noticed,

Why do you act as if you are the project owner? You are just a frustrated hunter like the rest of us so don't act any better,
They are paying hunters with an unknown usdo and i ask where it is traded, if you know provide an answer otherwise keep mute,

You should visit their telegram especially the bounty group to see reactions of hunters  ;D most especially because of the lock reward,
Expect more to invade this place or open a thread about this project.

P.s.
IMO or whatever is no different from ieo or ico so don't act like this is some groundbreaking project, infact it is a pyramid scheme that should be avoided.

A new kind of fundraising again? I think it will not succeed just as IEO had before. IEOs successfully launched because there are many people who hate ICO tried to invest with IEO projects. They thought that it will change the aspects of fundraising yet it is not. The existence of IMO right now will not be popular because there are still people who have interest for both ieo and ico.

I think IEO is better enough that they are not a failure. It actually depends on the selection of the bourse to not directly accept the project that holds the IEO, at least the stock exchange is more careful and conducts a video call and office verification or does some sort of AMA to the project owners, if I see the actual IMO system back again with my explanation in IEO, any new system must be good, actually is we need a third party that holds funds and can be trusted in IEO, the market is still red so it is difficult to say IEO failed and must be replaced with IMO

No one in this market is interested in ICO except bounty hunters. The ICO is completely dead and no investors are interested in it, and the IEO is currently replacing the ICO to fund new projects. But in my opinion, IEO will die in the next few months and IMO will replace it

indeed at this time many methods have emerged and become the best solution to be able to avoid the scam of projects that have the aim to steal the funds of investors, whereas I see IEO is still very good to be applied in large exchange places that have a good reputation, as evidenced by many IEOs from Binance and Kucoin which can be sold out in a very short time, so in my opinion the IEO method is still appropriate.

I don't understand why you think only bounty hunters are interested in ico? why do you have that impression? because as far as i know ico's are design to raise funds where everyone is expected to participate, so how does this only affect bounty hunters! any project whether ico, ieo or self funding can decide to run a bounty to promote their project because as you can see it is a way of marketing, bounty hunters are interested in any campaign that they can earn a reward from, be it ico, imo, ieo or even btc paying campaign like the one you currently in, so i don't understand what you mean  ::)

You said it. 100% ICO cannot be blamed. The method of raising funds is not what you should be judging a project on. There will always be investors in projects if the projects are good. I don't see why this user thinks the method of raising funds determines the outcome of the project. Bounty hunters are normally a bit dumb. IT is great to want to earn but you should be earning from a good project. The project should be so good that you don't dump because you believe it will increase in value.

Any kind of token offering will replace IEO as long as the investors see good results or advantages. If IMO can provide a new good outcome regarding token sales then it is highly possible that it will boom and for sure that start-up projects will choose IMO to help them raise some funds.

Yeah, i am participating in their signature and social campaign also. It’s was only 4 weeks campaign i think so that a lot of hunters joined in this campaign. IMO is already developed own platform likes exchange and offering different coins those are still going in presale round such as IMO this one is exchange token than HCE,MDNS,XLA etc. Project right now strongly progressed.                 

The ICO and IEO tokensale model thrived in their time because it gave investors returns on their capital so I can see the IMO tokensale model taking over IEOs because it has a much more compelling investment model, I personally haven't tried it but I have a couple of friends who has and they have nothing but good to say about it, let's see what the future holds.

You have a point. IEO has not totally failed and it ameliorated a lot of issues even till date so I don't really see any need to revamp IEO at the moment. Also I understand IMO locks 90 percent of investors token which is release over a period of 365 days; this, I don't think will impress and attract investors

Well this model of launching a crypto project is not bad as in a way you really see the dedication of the team in coming out with a product unlike ICOs and IEOs.  I hope to seeing some great projects coming with this model and not the numerous scam projects that infiltrated this industry for the past two years.

You are right there was a big transition from Initial Coin Offering (ICO) to the Initial Exchange Offering (IEO) fund raising model which provides more assurances for investors by offering better quality and market liquidity, and this appears to be a similar model just to gradual token release in stages and it may catch on or may not we shall have to wait and see

I think this is a good update, because every year there are always developments and finally a new system is created which will certainly be more profitable for investors and projects. So I will wait for IMO to become popular next year

The only advantage is it takes only four weeks tofinish the presale , what is the other advantage of that kind of offering?
I mean for me they only change the name but nothings is new to offer things or solve any problem from IEO and ICO . If they cant change anything it will also end.

Probably the reason why they are creating too many systems from time to time is to update the existing system yet, make a name for it so people could recognize it different from the way it is before. But in fact, it is their strategy to take ownership of a new trend in the market. But for me, for them to be successful in implementing IMO, is if it has really a good capabilities to offer for the people to benefit from it.

Wow another way of raising funds, Initial Model Offering. From ICO to IEO, STO to IMO, the way of collecting funds to support a crypto project has gone through. I do not believe these ways of raising funds. What I believe is the honest and credible project. If a crypto project is honest, it can raise funds enough to support its idea regardless of ICO, IEO, STO or IMO.

These new ideas need to be tested in practice. However, it does not seem that the participants in the bounty campaigns will really like it if they are needed in this IMO. I don’t really want to participate in the same year or even more in one project.
However, I liked the idea that it will be possible to trade in the wallet itself, and transaction data will automatically be displayed on the exchange. I was expecting the appearance of something like this. This is quite convenient and, possibly, will increase the security of using our cryptocurrency.

This is not the first time when a project offers a new sale system but it won't accept widely until a big exchange or project supports it. We have seen some other sale method in this year, the IEO method works because Binance, Huobi, Gateio, oKex supported it. I realize that IMO has such unique and potential ideas, I did their bounty too and I hope after IEO, people will follow this new and catchy sale system.

Exactly! No matter what strategy they are coming up with as long as they don't have massive benefit to even ordinary users, in the end, they will not be successful in this new scheme. Long term goal is to have good adoption from the community, because without actual usage in the market, the project is basically heading to its grave.

honesty can not solve the funding issue, what the investor needs are a unique idea and high return of investment. even a legit project could not afford to meet their softcap this year because of lack of demand from the investors.

I am not interested in new ways of calling for capital, because no matter what, after listing in the exchange, its price will be panic sell. I only care about the price of the token after being listed, and how can they keep the token price stable in the long run to help investors on their project get profit. And for now IEO is enough and I believe it will work well over the next few years along with the top exchanges, IMO really nothing too different from the current IEO

Lol! Bounty hunters are normally a bit dumb" coming from a member who has the qualification to participate in cryptotalk signature am not surprise, i mean since you are in a btc campaign you feel rest of hunters are dumb to be campaigning for non btc paying campaigns, and i suppose you know how to detect a good and honest project.

IEO is enough for me too and I have no interest to invest in IMO projects but yet I believe IMO is different from IEO and they are offering something new. If you ever see the IMO app and how it works, you will feel good because the idea and the tech behind it is very cool, though most of their ongoing sale projects are unknown. I think we need to welcome unique ideas in crypto, let's see what IMO can do for the crypto world in 2020.

A lot of difference between IEO and IMO. Every presale token ongoing in daily but you can set alarm when token sell start it’s very fantastic. IEO is going slowly and investors boring this method. In that case, IMO platform is trying different thing to attract new investors. Every single IMO presale token listed only IMO exchange within few days after token sell. I hope most of the people’s support it.                      

I just heard IMO, I have never heard of projects that raise funds through IMO. for now Investors still choose to join IEO. IEO is still profitable and there are no cases experienced by investors regarding fraud on IEO. I support IMO.  I hope that everyone's support for IMO can continue.

I have had much regarding this project but I really do not have much to say as the intentions are good but as a new Innovation we are looking forth for better move. Meanwhile, all needed is what will really help the growth of crypto market and what will certainly bring investors back so if this innovation will, congrats and kudos but I am a person that appreciate new innovation and I look forward for the best. I do not have much to say till it tastes little bit of time but the use case is cool.

Glad to see you vent your anger on them just like you claim. Not participating in the Bounty and I wonder what you claim to be doing in their Bounty group.

Only deluded enough to note that those guys made their rules clear for all to see before jumping into their Bitcointalk campaign.

Yes if I knew about USD0 I would have written about it when this thread was first published. But clearly as at the time I did my own research like you failed to do, the so called USD0 wasn't available in their platform. And now this brings me back to your USD0 questions. I read USD0 isn't a trading coin or token but it is used to participate in their Presale tokens. Why are you so lazy to read before writing negative review about them here, I think you're among those hunters spreading Fud in their community even after collecting their reward like most Project failed to pay you all. By the way, those presale tokens are clearly trading in their own Exchange. So looks like a good deal.

Talking about locking rewards? Not true mate, again read before writing what makes you happy, for it won't be good to condemn a new innovations in the Crypto marketplace for your selfish desire, they release 10% for hunters already which hunters sold for a minimum of 2.6% rise for those who participated... This is clearly far better than most Bounties out their that failed to give hunters their deserve reward or in a situation where hunters were paid in dumped tokens. Forget about the hate and appreciate good for once.

The Crypto space is decentralised and if we keep writing negative review about new innovations in the space, the the purpose of a decentralised ecosystem isn't worth it.

PS: I am not in anyway associated with IMO Platform. I decided to publish it here because it is something new and different in the space after reading about it.

I believe the Original Model Delivery (IMO) will replace the original Exchange Offer (IEO). IEO is stronger than ever, surpassing previous major projects. but it's time for IMO to follow suit and have the opportunity to surpass it at any time.  :o

Projects need to be excellent enough and the IMO ecological platform will strictly control and implement certain security measures. Therefore, we should invest in stages to reduce risks. Must monitor projects and even scammers.

No actually i did my home work very well and that's why i made mention about the 10% in my first post but since you are so blinded by sentiment you couldn't see that part, (the bold part of the post above.... read brah)...... i join the telegram group because i was curious and believe me when i say am glad i did... i gat to do some research now, don't i? ;)

and about usdo, well even if you did not mention it at the beginning of your thread but somehow it is now part of the project and since it was specifically created to pay hunters i believe it is worth mentioning... or don't you think? after all this is imo Ann thread and all things imo should be discuss here (the bad, the good and the ugly)..... don't take it personal,

and like you said, this is decentralized space and open to any form of discussion and criticism so i don't know why imo should be an exception, between it is not up to you tell anyone what to right.... otherwise you are indirectly trying to influence people's thought about this project, but, am excluded ;D

instead of trying so hard to defend a project you claim you don't have any part of, why don't you make yourself useful in other ways ???

mind you ieo was something new and lots of thread were created about it, forum members said their views and opinions about ieo, nobody went crazy with sentiment ;D  so same should apply to imo, it is new and i reserve the right to say my opinion, and i don't give a flying F**k if you are okey with it or not, most especially since you are not even part of the brain behind the project.

Believe me, you don't need to tell me about imo, i have already read through the skeleton whitepaper they provided and my opinion still remain same..... process that.

The IMO idea of keeping value alive is really working and yes it's a fair win for both investors and project owners, but presently all projects using IMO are asian projects maybe things will change if projects from other parts of the world start using the find raising strategy

Sounds like vetted IEOs on trusted exchanges like ecxx and Binance would be safer. If the project in your model doesn't produce good returns early in development, no more IMO investors will come.

I'm starting to have different view for IMO because very good projects are using the exchange, for example BTE, world business token and XRG Hashnet which are both promising Japanese project, i think IMO platform have a upper chance
