To me ICO and IEO are somehow identical only the main difference is that things are easier in IEO, the question is does making it easier change the overall view of perspective regarding investors or its just the same making IEO a faster or more convenient version of ICO, it bothers me a lot since for me making it more convenient is a side grade more than an upgrade since it just offers extra utility and it does not make IEO better than ICO.

Tell me what you think, is IEO better than ICO or they are just the same with only difference in method.

The method of listing is one big difference between the two, most investors showed interest with IEO's due to the fact that they will not wait for longer time, after the sale period they can easily dumped the coins/tokens that they've have inside their wallets.

In terms of security for me its YES since IEO are happening on exchange it means your funds are directly handed by the exchange itself and acting like a escrow! so no chance for those scambugs who after our funds. Let me say it clear that i dont trust other exchange platforms who offer IEO choose to invest only from those regulation and AMLC compliant Exchange Platform.

I see, since IEO happens in exchanges we don't need to question the reliability in general.

There are similarities, but i think if invest on IEOs is better than on ICOs, but only if invest on IEOs on trusted exchanges and not on new ones without history, and IEOs can bring a profit over time if project is good.

maybe many think IEO is better, but overall it's the same. ICO looks bad because of scammers, and last year too many new projects did ICO but failed. and maybe if in the future the IEO is also popular and many new projects that start using it will end up like ICO. so I think nothing is better.

nor does it look good because of the hype. if many new projects do IEOs, it will look the same as ICO. and I don't think so long so that it will happen. at this time even almost all Exchange, began to provide IEO services. because of this I think the IEO is the same. nothing is different.

I don't think IEO is better than ICO.
if you or someone invests IEO Ocean on bittrex, then congratulations you have lost a lot of your money!
from this, we know if the IEO is the same as ICO. yes, you are right, that's a different method. but the same trick.
so my answer is nothing better, whatever the type of investment.

I think IEO will be a little better than ICO, but only a little little better.
The exchanges will normally check the project and then decide whether accept for IEO or not, which means at least a huge amount of scams will be filtered out.
But like the latest IEO in Bittrex, you will loose almost all of you MONEY :)

An Example:
ICO: 1000 new projects and 990 fail
IEO: 100 new projects and 90 fail 

I have not seen any major dissimilar between IEO and ICO,buying token or coin in exchange will not end dumping from investors or exchange scamming,it is best to invest what you can afford to lose.

Only on some exchanges like Binance, that will guarantee you a great profit. But in general there is no revolution in this method, only a guarantee that the token is going to be listed on an exchange, where the token sale takes place and this has motivated a lot of investors.

I am very happy with the IEO, this is a new idea that provides a solution to the many negative views on cryptocurrency. With IEO Investors can be more calm to invest due to better systems and security.

It's an obvious fact that , IEO and ICO are geared towards accomplishment of same result which is token sale. IEO sprang up as a result of the inability of many projects meeting their targets with ICO. So they needed another avenue to 'confuse' investors to buy their tokens since there's a higher chance of getting listed in an exchange.
In my opinion, IEO is a better avenue for token sale compared to ICO, because there's a third party involved which serves as an Escrow, that's the exchange.

What I see is not every exchange could handle IEO successfully. Since IEO got name faster, now even unknown exchange start his IEO, which surely will not get serious attention from investor, then they fail. This is one of the toxic that will give bad effect to IEO.

Overall, I think that IEO is taking a general step in the name of regulation. I can applaud the efforts made by most IEO's to act complacently with regulations.
   IEO will give investors less of a headache when it comes to doing thorough research for a company, especially if it's backed by a prestigious exchange.

In my opinion IEO and ICO are exactly the samething but IEO gave investors more confidence because crypto exchange site are in charge of the token/coin sales. Despite that, investors still need their own research about the project because exchange been in charge doesn't prevent investors from been scam.

IEO is a better form of ico for me because an independent exchange institution is acting as an escrow in an ieo and they list a new project only if it satisfies them in every sense.

IEO is less risky than ico .at least you will get a chance to trade your token in exchanges but you can see some ico do scam after fundraising end.so i think IEO is better right now :)

I think IEO is much safer than ICO.IEO can eliminate fraudulent and suspicious projects due to fundraising through exchange platforms.
IEO RAID is a good example.Bittrex canceled IEO for a RAID project a few hours before the crowdsale began due to the termination of the partnership between RAID and OP.GG.According to the exchange, the partnership between the two companies was a vital part of the project.
When conducting an IEO exchange becomes an interested party, because its reputation is at stake

If you are an investor of ICO before, you can see the difference of these two. Although in overall, they are totally identical but in IEO it's easier for investors to make profit on it if you're all in to dump. We are still at the early stage of IEO.

But on the latter, I think we might see the same fate with ICO.

There are many exchanges that will not worry much about reputation. The most prominent example is Yobit.

However, I agree with you that IEO is much safer. At least for the first time. We always have the opportunity to trade a new asset, unlike ICO. But the problem is that it is not always possible to participate in a potential IEO.

Definitely now you all say that IEO is a new round of development of the cryptocurrency industry,it is more reliable,more successful, and so on,as it comes from the Exchanges of the movement,they all study and press the recommendations,but we all remember what was with ISO,so maybe in half a year or a year,already and IEO will be a thing of the past!

At this moment The IEO mechanism is far better than ICO model. They both are for almost same purpose. But in IEO the risk factor is less than ICO. In last few months we saw many scam and failed project in that market. So investors ar afraid to invest. So the whole market was going to finished. At this moment the ieo mechanism come to top and save many new good project. But now many small exchanges tries to enter the market and they are offer some ieo which is not backed up by good projects. So be careful. And always do your own research.

This example may show the difference of 10 successful projects for the 2 crowdfund process but the success rate are different. ICO will be 1/100 while IEO is 10/100. However, IEO still looks younger and the adoption just increased. We also are getting to know some atrocities perpetrated by exchanges in the past 2 year, which could give more understanding in making choice between the 2. There would be more revelation into this as more tokens get listed through IEO in the future.

As an idea IEO better than ICO. But in reality, we see many identical moments, especially for potential investors. ICO lost trust in the middle of 2018. That's why appeared IEO. It's some warranty of a reliability project and their team. This technology of startups returns trustable in the beginning project which business based on cryptocurrency. This help to attract enough investors quantity. Maybe this fact helped to stabilize cryptocurrency markets.

In my opinion, ico project will be more popular than ieo project. Because in the collection of funds he was assisted by a large number of people who analyzed this project. People studied the team and all the details.

Everyone came to make money on ieo projects. When such a project begins to trade its tokens then all immediately sell and forget about him.
Few people, in my opinion are analyzing such projects. Everyone looks at the crypto exchange like binance that helps to this ieo project. If there is confidence in this exchange there is no doubt in the project. But this is a bad idea. I propose to mention the first ieo on bittrex.

An ieo gives an assured guarantee that investors money are safe
Which makes it superior to ico where it’s a win or lose

Ieos makes it win / win even though there are no guarantees after token listing

i think IEO better than ICO,  almost 80% of ICO is SCAM / Failed,  any 6 reason IEO better than ICO that someone share in this forum,  and i think so
1. simple
2. secure
3. cheaper
4. agregable
5. credible
6. accesible

IEO is much better than ICO but the advantage of this IEO they are already on exchange they don't need to be listed they are already listed unlike this ICO they need to be reach softcap before they plan to be listed in some exchange but sometimes even if they reach soft cap they plan to run and get the money without returning investment money.

IEOs are good at big exchange, but consider that it does not matter whether it is ICO or IEO in big exchanges. IEOs are good for going against scammers, but I do not know how it is valid in small exchanges.

changing the name and the way they are distributed doesn't suddenly turn a useless project into a good one. it is like the usual question about whether not calling altcoins "alt"coins would make them any better!
the only thing that can change things is if they started creating valuable projects which would require creating an actual cryptocurrency that is stand alone not a token that relies on another platform and has no usages.

IEO is better and safer for investors than ICO. But about the development of the project, I don't see any difference when the team of projects holds money and you can't know how they use them.

We'RE switching from ICO to ieeo. That's great in my opinion. Because no one takes technology that can't prove itself to the platform. This is a good thing for users . Because of previous fraud incidents will be prevented. But it's hard to buy very good projects. The demand is too much, so we can't get it.

Exactly my point and I feel a lot of these scam projects will be pitching their tent in these small exchanges. But I think any exchange that values its reputation and wish to last longer will take this issue very seriously by ensuring that they protect the investors interest more by making sure they do not list scam projects for IEO's and particularly ensure that most developers accounts and are not allowed deposit and withdrawal of certain amount and whatever regulation to protect the investors and prevent manipulation immediately after IEO and listing

It's a good question, personally for me IEO is totally better that ICO because it takes much less time and chance to be scammed much less that it was befor with ICO's. However IEO much worst for bounty hunters coz there are no bounty's.

For now yes, its much safer to invest in IEO than ICO because investors have assurance that the projects token/coin will be listed after the IEO. But for the quality of the project is almost the same, I've seen some projects doing an IEO but their project is not that good and I think a money-grab projects only.

In my opinion the differences are only technical, you in the same way as in ICO can be scammed, the project may fail to collect the hard cap, after the listing projects can dump or pump.

For now it can be said that the IEO is better than ICO, this is because the IEO is directly supported by the market exchange, ensuring that investors are not hit by a scam.

For this moment yes as ICO brings a lot of losses on investors in the past few months,they say its because of the bad situation of the market but i dont think so because if they are going to list tokens on the top exchanger this will not happened.IEO now gaining a good thoughts in investors because it is already on exchange they dont have wait for a long time and also for bounty hunters they will probably promote those because they need also a good reward.

The last post I read gave about 6 reasons why IEO is better than ICO. Those reasons are almost the same when we talk about ICOs and IEO except the fact that with IEOs, there's no fear of project listing in an exchange.

I think they are the same and differ only in methods and approaches to investors. Anyway the IEO still looks better than the ICO, at least the IEO will be filtered more thoroughly, phishing projects will be reduced. But the IEO has its downside, it's very easy to manipulate, which makes me dislike IEO.

They are almost both good of the team of the bounty projects and ICO projects are know how to handle the situation they go for ico then go ieo after ico that is the strategy made by yanu so there tokens will be good enough they also make a solutions if ever tokens has been dumped so yanu has a great wise team visit this site amd invest and you have a potential tokens and surely make profits.https://exmarkets.com/launchpad.

But that might be a reasonable reason, but what we are seeing now is that the IEO is profitable or not. Indeed, investors who are not hit by a scam are indeed right. But basically, if the project is not good, maybe the IEO is not profitable. Of course IEO and ICO have their own advantages and IEO and ICO certainly decide which one is the best. For investment, I think it's still good between IEO and ICO.

Of course there are some features that today help to show what's what. It is precisely the IEO process that has great potential to be successful today, because IEO replies with the reputation of the exchange that this gives great success.

IEO has an advantage when it comes to the assurance in return of investment , sure profit and less holding period. IEO guarantees their investors in sure listing in an exchange already thats why i go for IEO specially in binance

For now its yes and if investors will  e satisfy by ieo then it can replace ico,Ico cant satisfy investors anymore and it can bring a lot of losses inss for them so they dont want ico and IEO comes out and trying to attract investors so new bounty programs now are doing IEO and this link can give you a good IEO to invest .

A project is really not good to me based on paper until I see the practical use of it, the only good thing that IEO platform has successfully caught out in the meantime is that part of fraudulent activities, but I doubt if it can successfully eliminate the part of bad projects on the platform.

The exchanges might have done their proper verification on the projects, even know the team members and see future in whatever product they are proposing, but in the real time, will the product really get support from end users for it to remain strong in the market? Even if they register on IEO, the team still needs to be extremely hard working to make their project thrive in the market.

There is no doubt IEO is much better, just look for the worst possibilities when ICO failed mostly the Investors ended up loosing their investment however this is not the case with the IEO. IEO is way better compared to ICO as most people says you will no longer wait for months to sell your coins you can sell it immediately after the IEO has finished.

Yes, the IEO guarantees that even the investors are happy and much rushed, and about the listed tokens on the stock, investors have the chance to make a profit.

IEO attracting more investor these days because all managed by exchanger. The token guarantee listed in exchanger after token sales ended and investor dont have to wait for long time like ICOs. About profits or the price, i think its depend on the project itself, if the project is worth to hold for long term, i think the price will keep increasing

I think the most important is for the coin or token to actually have a use case or product, otherwise, it's just another decentralized coin that you can trade and we already have them in the market.

But, I think IEO is better than ICO, because to me with ICOs there are lots of scammers and from my experience, it is very hard to prove or be sure in the legitimacy of the project.
But with IEO there are procedures a company has to go through before the launch and it kind of gives me the courage to trust these projects a bit more.
For example, the https://yanu.ai/ (https://yanu.ai/) IEO is trustworthy and they have a very nice Candybox campaign for token holders, a real product with a real-life use case :)

You said whats most important is the token or coin to have a use case or product which will influence the crypto investors and as the OP said IEO and ICO are identical. However, the procedures done by crypro exchange site before they launch a IEO doesnt guarantee the genuine of a project and does not stop scammer from scamming crypto investors as we both know that they can steal someone ID and use it for the so call procedure.
I believe we still need to verify the genuine of every IEO from crypto scammer finder like user ICO ethics before investing.

I'm not sure about that. But I think IEO is a bit better than ICO. Just a little ! Because ICOs are not sure to be listed on exchange, the IEO is different. Besides, it also uses the stand-out trading platform to ensure more reliable.

True true true. That's why I think IEO is better. Recent prices of ieo have proved that. I can't even buy IEO because it ran out so fast

Hoping that IEO will have a huge difference away from ICO performance knowing how bad it shows to us, full of Ponzi scheme project and causes the market to fall. Everyone will look IEO will be profitable but we can't still pronounce it until it is proven since it is just not long have been launch.

IEOs guarantee investors to trade their token in no time after token sale ended. However, investors can expect the price to be always increase as it's about demand from other traders. I agree with you, this IEO system is an answer to for listing problem since many projects faced a hard time to list their tokens on exchanges and made investors angry.

Yes I can agree with you on this. Then I would say it's important to check the main things needed for a legit crypto project, before even checking if it's ICO or IEO. That can be the best solution, cause if checking the project and you see all the team and other necessary things needed, that can be a confirmation of the legitimacy of the project. Aaaand that's why I love Yanu, everything is transparent and honest :)

I think several of the investors now trust IEO than ICO, since most of the ico projects are scam and just fraud. Also IEO has a good features that ico haven't, so by this many investors switch their investment strategy to IEO. I hope IEO would bring a bright future to all crypto enthusiast in the near future.

Check out Yanu IEO on https://exmarkets.com/launchpad (https://exmarkets.com/launchpad). They have an ongoing IEO, good project and great Candybox campaign for token holders.
Of course the research about the project is the first step, but I encourage you to do that, because I did it and the project has a lot of value, real product and a lot of potential to grow.

I would actually love to hear your opinion about that :)

It seems that the IEO and ICO are both good and depend on the project too. For the time being I am more happy if people invest in ICO. Because for example, the newly opened ICC bcexex has been able to get 2k ETH to date. That means ICO is also not inferior to the IEO. So your stay is decisive, it's better to invest in IEo or ICO

Kinda true though, IEOs are still very new. That's why I look the value and purpose of the project when investing. And Yanu really has the real product and a lot of potetnial to grow :)

You really should understand that the information provided about the new project should not be perceived by investors as one hundred percent true document.  Fraudsters always knew how to deceitfully sophisticated.  K I think that the new development concept for the IEO project will soon be more relevant than the company's ico.

I think the IEO process is too big on its scale. It is very much HYIP, so people begin to invest through it. For this reason, today you may notice that people in general are not doing the right thing.

I am sure that there are so many new projects that not everyone will be able to fulfill the conditions of IEO.  Based on this, a large percentage of new projects will be implemented with the help of the company's ico market.

Yes, of course, you can't perceive the information as one hundred percent true, but I have checked my facts and the company CEO does monthly updates about the process of the project, I have been keeping an eye on that and the first prototype is basically ready. I have so far believed only in Bitcoin, but Yanu has changed my mind, I have looked through all of this and done my research. Plus the company is from my country which doesn't have many crypto projects (I think this is the second one besides CoinMetro) and there are many public figures involved in this project and if it was a scam in any way, it would already have been a major scandal and in news in this country (Estonia is very small and scams come out instantly)

In my view, IEO is ICO's Upgrade, this is next method to sell coin to make investor more trusted to some project. More people will be choose IEO than ICO, and we can see so many new ICO's project dead today!

ICO and IEO have differences so they have their respective strengths.
so in my opinion IEO and ICO are just as good because it depends on the IEO or ICO itself because there are many bad IEOs including ICO.

I'm not guaranteeing, but it seems like I'm sure the IEO will sooner or later follow ICO the difference is that this project is a little safer because the token that is offered already has its own exchange, only when it has been traded when it reaches ATH, and other people try to buy tokens there potential losses will very high

I saw a list of documents that request exchanges to publish the IEO, and also a number of checks of team members, a definite answer - IEO is the best option in all aspects. I hope this will be the end for scammers.

IEO and ICO are the same, even many projects that make sales from both of them may be in my opinion the IEO is one of the sales that gives a bigger bonus and of course the IEO makes it easy for us to make purchases and immediately get tokens without doing complicated things like ICO and so far this is quite positive, so the point is that the IEO and ICO are the same.

ICO is better because it provide funds for the project to the Team. But another issue is that we have quite a lot of scam ICOs that can never smell the exchange whereas IEO is one that have its own exchange already.

IEO is on the bright spot now but it doesn’t mean that its better, i believe we must still look at the real project, look at the potential of the coin and don’t get hyped if the coin has no good system. ICO are still there with some good project, it can still be the option for us to invest with a lot of care.

For me, I think if IEO can help reduce the rate which we experience scam projects, then it is quite better than ICO. Although the purpose is the same using  different methods to achieve that purpose.

For some reasons ieo is really in many times better than ico. Why? Because people trust in ieo because it supported by exchanges. IEO is evolution of ICO.

but IEO obtained something that was really needed - a middleman that checks the project and guarantees it's not a scam.

Lol...ah well, some times but not always
i. IEos as every venture also has its own demerits or cons and so far per all the IEOs I have seen, I haven't witnessed yet anyone which was better than ICOs. Because they all end up same so far.

Now the IEO reminds me of the ICO status of 2017. When almost every new project in ICO brought good profits and investors carried money to every new project without parsing.
Now in the IEO a similar situation. People bear money in the IEO and already on many exchanges they have received decent losses that will be difficult to cover quickly.

Well explained. It is a matter of time to see what is going on with the IEOs. Will the faith be like an ICOs or this drift will be completely game changer for the investors?

For me I think they are still the same we still need to wait till their product starts operating.
We couldn't know if it is worth it or not, if it is legit or scam we still need to wait so they are just the same for me.

IEO is basically an upgrade version of ICO to help eliminate the amount of scam projects being introduced into the crypto ecosystem.  Considering the key purpose of IEO, I can automatically say IEO are better than ICO since upgrades are always better than the previous version. IEO gives exchange platforms the right and power to obtain all relevant details before they launch the IEO to raise funds for the project.

That’s true actually IEO are more risky because the possible dump are high since you are just trading without any real product and it can turn into a scam. I’m still not investing on a new product because i know its hard for the to grow so i’d rather to focus on the top coins now that they’ve started to pump. If you don’t want to be fooled go for the safe coins.

I don't think that this is all about the IEO and ICO because both have the same potential to succeed and are equally risky to fail and even scam
both are just as good so don't forget the most important points, the important thing is that the project is not whether it is the IEO or ICO because if the project is good and gets support from investors, then the project will be a successful and profitable project

I personally do not really like the IEO, I have lost several times because I joined the IEO, indeed the appeal of the IEO is very convincing because we are affected by being able to directly use the IEO coins in the exchange but in reality the exchange is like not alive.  I did not say that overall all IEOs are bad, but if asked which is the best whether IEO or ICO then I personally prefer ICO.

IEOs boost the trust level of investors, this alone makes a big difference.

of course IEO is better than ICO, ICO has been very bad in the eyes of investors and has no profit at all for them with the existence of the IEO, investors will again trust the new crypto project

Both have their respective advantages, namely IEO with projects that have been running while ICO with a variety of very flexible concepts
The IEO may be more credible because the project is a project that is already running and that means that the risk of scam is lower but unfortunately the IEO has no other concepts and there seems to be no innovation that can be obtained from the IEO so ICO is actually good for crypto continuity and blockchain because there many concepts that adopt and integrate the blockchain and I think that is innovation, therefore it is actually not fair to have to compare the two because both have their own advantages

On the other hand, IEO is a very if not entirely, different model. While both ICO and IEO share the similar rationales of Initial Public Offering (IPO). In an IEO an exchange is an administrator. As the excitement around ICO’s has cooled off, it looks like IEO could gain prominence as they provide a new fundraising method for blockchain projects and an extra layer of trust and security. As Exchanges themselves screen every project and select the high-quality ones to launch IEOs their chances of failure or scamming reduces significantly.

I don't really see  IEO as that better than ICO. I just see IEO as rebranding of ICO to help bring more investors into the crypto space to help support new crypto projects. IEO is as good as ICO since both are just crowdfunding venture but the only difference is that with IEO, the total number of tokens or coins are made available to the exchange platform running the IEO.

Yes it is better than ICO of course. You can get a listing guarantee after the IEO over in that exchange.
Many ICO were unable to list their token even after some months from token sale.
And, the IEO will have no chance to be a scam IEO, because it will destroying the exchange reputation.

IEO just another way to collecting money from investors,, so, basicly ICO and IEO have the same purpose,
IEO use an exchange as crowdfunding platform, and thats the main benefits from IEO, because after the IEO finish, the token or coin will automatically tradeable on the exchange, but ICO must wait to be listed in any exchange for some period time

IEOs are fast gaining in popularity mainly due to the lack of trust in ICOs and if they are hosted by exchanges that have good reputations this can take some of the risks out of investing into these types of offerings, however, if you do choose to commit capital to these newer crowdsales always ensure you do your own research to determine whether or not a startup has a quality product and marketing strategy and a sustainable ecosystem

In general, IEO is still much better than ICO and this investment trend is still well known in the last 3 months. I think the risk investment has changed and only those who catch the new trend the fastest have the opportunity to earn better profits. I will personally choose to invest  IEO because these are projects that exchange proposals for investors and it makes the participants more secure in liquidity.

I think the IEO and ICO are the same as the difference between the initial funding method.
if I have to choose, I prefer the IEO which is run on a large exchange like binance because until today there is no IEO that fails in binance, as for the profits and losses it all depends on how the project runs on the market.

The difference is people can't trust ICO anymore, but they trust IEO just because of the launchpad of renowned exchange. I think soon IEO also face the same of ICO, because at the end of the, product matters.

Not only that.. IEOs are good cause we no more worry about exchanges list for that projects and with ICOs sometime even they get a good amount of money from ICOs their projects are never get list on a good exchanges a the market are dying so fast even peoples did not realise their projects are exist.. I already dump a lots of token cause their project are lack on getting liquidity where no body want to buy their tokens as thing are going to slow or nothing promise has full fill make investors run away.so for me IEOs is a good thing where we can choose where that IEOs are has being promoted. I only pick a good exchanges as i know it will be more succeed.

If you choose IEO, of course it's the right choice. But ICO is actually still good for investing. If you really find a good ICO. As you said above, the reality is like that. However, if I really want to invest in ICO, of course I would be happy that people still believe in the ICO. And one more thing, if you invest in IEO, of course popular exchanges are better for IEO.

I like on IEO is the fact that the exchange itself handle the scrutinization of the project whether they are real and legit team working on something and that make it easier for the participants and save time to search whether the project isnt scam and just a cash grab project on which ICO doesnt get us the guaranteed about this matter. But in terms of project output it is our responsibility as a investor to look into it. The exchange just helping us out in terms of convenient and legality but still the future of the project still depends on us to see if the project can still be alive after so many years.

You are right, but investors must be more careful of what he is believing. By the increasing number of IEO and its hype, there will be more scammers to take this opportunity to scam investors. Also, IEO is just ensure listing and not ensure that the project will be developed well.

What you said is right, there are still scammers who will take advantage and therefore the risk is still here.
However, if you will compare to ICO, IEO is less risky and proven that it could raise investments and can give to investors since they have the volume in trading sites like Binance.

Unfortunately, I haven't heard a coin that is successful coming from IEO, except those coins from Binance.

IEO is much more better than ICO. Before now, any team can come up create a website and start ICO which most of time ends up scamming investors. But with the advent of IEO, every team now goes through exchanges which will verify and confirm them before accepting the project, that is to say to a certain level fraudulent teams will be rejected.
Also, exchanges wouldn't want to risk their reputation for any IEO if they fail to do the needful so as to protect investors. But in all, one thing truly matters; that is the exchange should be a good one capable of protecting investors.

Depends on the project that is what I'm seeing because even IEO is listed in exchange already we can assure that its price is stable in the ieo price once the trading starts.so in the other hand the ICO'S still profitable but patient is needed so if we wait a lot we must make sure the altcoins we invest has potential like Dencoin tokens so in the future we can make money throughout the investments.

According to my knowledge IEO is better than ICO. The reason is that the system sells IEO tokens directly through exchanges. So that the success rate of IEO is higher than ICO. In addition, the IEO for scams is also smaller, because many have verified the project, first verified by the exchange and secondly verified by the team in the Bitcointalk forum.

It is hard to say that IEO is better than ICO because IEO is a new product and it's not the same as the ICO.
They sell their token at the market because they know that they will have a big opportunity to reach more investor from the market.
I only hope that the IEO will not run as the scam project like the ICO because if that is happening, then the investor will not invest their money, and they will stay away from any project.
That will be difficult for the project itself because they cannot continue the project without the investor unless they have big money to running every phase on their project.

For me YES! IEO or INITIAL EXCHANGE OFFERING is BETTER that ICO.
There is a third party to review the team and the project first before listing it on their IEO.
Then, there isa security that the token will have their listing on that exchange.

But increasingly here more and more problems occur in the IEO process. it's true that it is done by exchange but also when we see. the more IEOs are not so good. we also have to ask about turnover and also transparency regarding the IEO. How can an exchange choose the program to be able to launch on their IEO platform ?, there is still much to be improved from the IEO system.

IEO becomes risky for those who would still not use their mind to invest in projects confirmed by top exchanges like Binance, because it is obvious that smaller exchanges are after money and not integrity, if a scammer offers them huge amount of money to register their project, they will gladly accept it and give a sorry excuse later for registering a fake project.

IEO for now should still be safest and most secured means of investment for investors, but then we need to be careful of the exchange we use and also still do our own research on those projects to be sure they meet up to the required standard that is necessary for the project to become successful.

Yes in my opinion, because now the number of investors is very low for scam ico and fake ico. So this time ico is more difficult to be successful. In fact IEO is very useful for promoting any projects, and the market will be able to rope.

Yes I also think that ieo is better than ICO. They both are nothing but fundraising. But ieo is less risker than th ICO. For last few months the ICO market was going not very well. They are full of scammers. Most of the icos were scam they took peoples money and disappeared. Some of them failed at development stage. So people are kind of Afraid of investment. But after ieo came many big name are with it so it's less risker for people who invest. Many big exchange are with ieo like binance okex kucoin so now people have faith. And it's better than ICOs.

We can only say that IEO is better if it is only done through reliable exchanges, because there shall be a time, where scammers too will also take advantage of IEO like the way they did to ICO. There are some few people who have even recorded that some of these scammers sometimes may even come up with their own exchanges and register their IEO in order to scam people.

Therefore, the only way IEO can make difference is when we join projects that are strictly released by very reliable top exchanges and then we also do our own research to confirm, the credibility of the projects after being released.

IEOs more interesting that ICOs because all administered by exchangers. But beside that, like others speculation investment, most IEOs offering quick profits when start listed in exchanger.
Many ICOs held right now have good project and i think very potential in the future but we should make a research first before decide to join and invest

For sure! I believe IEO is much better that ICO, because you have less risks. Look, during ICO you wait for longer period and afterwards token can postpone listing . At the same time liquidity is low. On the contrary, IEO platforms provide liquidity and it is awesome

In my opinion, I believe the IEOs have started on the right foot and it really brings a lot of trust to investors knowing that a certain project (http://bit.ly/2K0GUby) or another has been vetted and backed by an exchange. My only fear is the fact that once it becomes "common", it might just be back to why we became so skeptical of ICOs.

Yes we can trust on exchange for investing..
Exchange scrutinized all the legal status....

Many say that is better than ico the greater its advantage in ico so new projects just want to list their token because the more likely it is that more investors are interested in it because they can they list this large volume exchanger but be careful in selecting tokens token because there are projects that are bad and do not have longterm their project so before choosing token to buy them i'll review them carefully so that's why you do not waste your funds on selecting the token token.

Some are saying this as always they compare ieo to ico but its doesn't matter if the project offers ico or ieo but its matter how good the project is,that is the best thing in cryptocurrency if the project is good it can be a successful one like this project that will succeed in the future so investors you can invest now in Dencoin tokens.

At the moment, the IEO does indeed look better than ICO, but this is due to the fact that the IEO has only recently appeared on the crypto market. In this case, in 3 months we were able to see many unsuccessful IEOs. ICO, too, at the time when they began to continue throughout the year, yielded good returns to their investors. And if you compare them all the time, the ICO has brought a lot more profit.

it all still depends on the project. maybe in the IEO process they can get investors, but when entering the market, they have to find new buyers or investors who want to buy their products. therefore, the success of the IEO or ICO has not provided certainty for the success of the project on the market.

One of the advantages of IEO over ico is the listing,  IEO projects tends to list very quickly on an exchange as compared to lots of ico project that takes longer time in listing after concluding ico, IEO projects also prevent exit of scam from various project because the exchange that wanna list them will conduct a proper research so as not to tarnish their image,  therefore IEO is better

In my own thoughts and observations, IEOs is far more better than ICOs checking by statistic, after the in effectiveness of the ICOs throughout 2018 almost everyone thought that the fundraising is going to the dust until IEO showed up and so far it has done far more better than expected. Let's see how it goes on the long run

They are similar in some ways, they are both crowdfunding, but the difference is some  ICO takes months before it can enter in exchange, compare to IEO where you can trade it right away after the crowd sales and the crowd sales in IEO can be finished in just a short period of time.

I don't know if it's better for an IEO than for an ICO to decide for everyone, but the fact that you can earn a lot more money at an IEO now is a fact and now a lot of people want to participate in an IEO

in theory the IEOs should be safer. the risk of scam should not be there because the exchange takes the responsibility of checking the project and the team, only the risk of project failure remains.

In my opinion, the IEO set is better than the ICO, the argument is that the IEO has more value by directly using market exchanges to make investments, so that with the market, the estimation of tokens to die will be more difficult, the process has been running since the token on the listing in the market exchange.

I think there is no big difference between IEO and ICO. However, the biggest reason why investors prefer IEO is that they believe that IEO is more reliable. Otherwise, the objectives of both IEO and ICO are the same.

The main difference is that IEO are conducted through an exchange and the possibility of getting scammed are less and that cannot be said about ICO as we have seen many scams in the past that showed promise with their white paper and ran with the money nor the projects not fulfilling what they started out and that can be the case with IEO too, you can get profit in the beginning but it will end up like ICO ended up.

i think both are same thing but offers different solutions. both of them are avenue to raise funds. ICO can be dangerous because fund owners can disappear without any trace but in IEO, the exchange that organize the IEO will never allow the fake project to raise money on their exchange. if a project launches an IEO in an Exchange and disappears, it is a bad reputation for the exchange which might eventually affect the trust of the exchange users. 

i think the difference just the amount of money you collected from IEO is faster to reach the target then the ICO.
If You look at the IEO from Binance and Bittrex they always sold out all the token less than a day or even it just a few minutes after the IEO start

I can't compare the whole between the IEO and ICO, only after what happened to ico at the moment many of them ended up being fraudulent, so I concluded that the IEO was far superior to ICO because I saw many saying that the IEO could prevent fraudulent funds.

Let's look at the trend that is happening with investments.IEO attracts more investors to the fact that tokens purchased from IEO to sell x2 and x3 above.this of course is not at all exchanges,only the top.On all other exchanges, the situation is the same as with the ICO.That's it! There’s no more difference.

of course IEO is more better than ico, in IEO some project are potentially listing in the exchanger and in few IEO campaign i joined the price are pumped from 2-5x than IEO price and make investor profitable than participate in ICO campaign.

read my statement in other thread : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5147147.msg51257767#msg51257767

Yes, you are right. that's the reason why the IEO is increasingly attracted by various groups including investors. there are many advantages that the IEO has that make investors switch to the current IEO program. on the other hand the risk of fraud is smaller than ICO.

The icos was already died and was no one join it in the last year after the fall , but now the IEO get more popular and make a refreshing in the market

for now it might be true. but for the foreseeable future I think fraudsters will definitely start looking for other ways to still benefit from this industry. it will not be different from ICO, which used to be very popular and successful, and finally there were too many scams there. because they always try to get more money by continuing to make a project scam.

they are the same but only their sales methods are different and also the level of security is also better for the IEO because the exchange is already responsible for IEO security. this makes investors no longer afraid of the ICO project because of security. so in my opinion IEO is better than ICO

For now it may be true that IEO is better than cryptocurrency but indeed some IEOs also harm investors. IEO trend later if there really isn't a big change it will be the same. harming many people. there are many things that need to be improved about transparency and also the methods in choosing an exchange

As said there no much differences between ICO and IEO. ICO was actually productive in its own time, a lot of these top coins and token actually explored this method. However, change is a constant thing which we will always experience from time to time. This is the time for IEO, another one will surely take over.

Whether ICO or IEO is the same thing they only want to sell their tokens with different platforms given whether they will get good sales or not, it will not affect the price when they enter the market because surely they will give much cheaper ICO or IEO prices.

IEO is better than ICO. IEO is more reliable and secure. Participation in IEO is beneficial for the exchange, startup and investor. Projects that run on exchanges are carefully selected, fraudulent projects are excluded.

It is not just the pace of getting the funds raised but the reason why funds gets raised so quick. The reason behind it is purely the project potential. The exchange make sure the project of the crypto team is great enough to generate value in future and that being said, the users on the exchange invest in the tokens and there have been evidences that the investors have made 4X profits.

Of course now this time better IEO for promoting any project goo day. Because lot of people now take a boring about ico, even at scamming or fake ico. So if any project doing promoting IEO at popular exchange then it will be good success.

IEO and Ico in my opinion are a worst of time and money. IEO are launched by Exchange and their only interest is to make money... Even if they are hacked they don't refund so, behind so many words, they don't care if a project will be succesful or not, they just get their fees and are happy.

At the end of the day, both are same. You can raise money with a shit idea through IEO while you can't through ICO. That's the only difference I see.

yeah sure, i think IEO is much better than ICO because it more safe for Investors.
we all know ICO is full of scam and fraud project, when they get a fund from crowdfunding they are just leaving and gone.
now, IEO will never gone because Exchange will handle this.

Safe in terms of sales, if you experience a loss when you invest, of course that means it's not safe too. The most important thing is that the project is good or not.

It seems that not all ICOs are fraudulent, you only see from the outside without entering into and directly concluding that all ICOs are fraudulent. Actually there are good and potential ico.

Not all exchanges are good for the IEO. You have to remember that IEO is good because popular exchange will affect every investor's trust.

Alright, I have read this thread since the beginning of the page. It seems that many of you telling that IEO is better than ICO.
To be honest, I have just returned from the crypto world since 2018. I just found out there is something new, namely the IEO. Then, what projects have been successful through this IEO system?

Yes, I have witnessed the IEO Bittorent (Btt) in Binance market, when it only needed lightning to spend all Btt Tokens in binance, then when first in the Binance market the price immediately increased very high, so it was lucky that people bought when IEO, because the price has risen sharply. But now the price returns to the price at the IEO price.

ICO is an investment open to the public and users buy by sending funds to an address provided by the developer on their platform while IEO is an investment that is done on an exchange and is not open to the public but to those that have accounts on that exchange. IEO, in my opinion, is better than ICo because it is more secure, trustworthy, developers are known and the coin is listed on the platform that the IEO was conducted.  

The IEO or ICO is actually not needed by anyone if there is a scam. what is needed more by many people is the success of a project. so I see IEO and ICO are still good and good, nothing is worse than that

The one I was involved with which sold out quickly was that of the ECOMI Project (http://bit.ly/2K0GUby). The reason why we believe IEOs are a better alternative to ICOs is the fact that they wouldn't have the excuse of delayed listing due to fees plus the exchanges claim to vet these projects.

As long as there is no proven scam with IEO it will be the future for the projects who will used it, and since the image of ICO was not that good anymore it will really a challenge for IEO to prove itself.

IEO's are doing better than ICO now, they are getting funded, investors do not have to wait for months to get the coin to the market, IEO came because ICO's are not performing in their expectation and investors are not getting results that they want to see, IEO is a better replacement for ICO.

In my opinion the presence of ICO and IEO is still needed, tight coin competition will certainly make investors have many alternative coins which are good and profitable.

IEO is better than ICO, we have to thank the IEO, after some IEOs have succeeded, making the market go up and improve like now, I'm sure without the IEO maybe the price of bitcoin is only $ 250 or the price of ETH is $ 30.

We should admit that IEOs more efective and eficient than ICOs. Exchanger must be already calculating their members purchasing power and thats why big exchangers like binance always sold out not more than 5 minutes

 
Almost all the benefits and functionalities are same between both IEOs and ICOs but the difference lies in important factor that means a lot for users. Security is very important for users to consider because if get scammed with something will definitely result negatively. IEOs are running on exchanges which are most trusted ones while all the ICOs are now not trusted because of the identification of many scammer developers holding ICO projects people are now preferring IEOs.

why you can think like that, which makes ethereum and bitcoin up not IEO but news big positive or the volume on the market increases so it's easy to pump the two coin it

According to some analysts, the whole difference between the new development concept of the company’s ico project is that IEO provides more benefits for investors, the trading platform and traders, and the new project gets the least amount of results from the whole process.

yes you are right, that the increase in the price of bitcoin or ethereum depends on the demand or supply of the two coins in the market and related to the IEO and ICO depending on the individual thoughts, maybe the IEO is more promising because the risk of fraud is smaller than the ICO.

I think that is right if IEO is much better than ICO because IEO is handle by some exchange that mean IEO have a good security and bring the reputation of thet exchange.
I am still worry to join ICO for this time, it look like still have a scam project.

IEO is no doubt a notch higher than ICO. though the credibility and success of the project are still not guaranteed for IEO projects, yet you have the assurance that they will be trading in that exchange. you should be careful in investing IEO projects and in what exchange? still scammers are everywhere and IEO launchpads are not free from those scammers.

better or not according to personal taste and maybe you think IEO is better, and maybe there are some who say ICO is better but now there are things that are not good.
everything is good if we can do it well, and not all ICO projects are bad, there are still good projects that can be produced if we can find them.
so still we have to be careful what will be chosen because all have risks.

for now it is true that the IEO is more attractive than the ICO especially because the ICO reputation has declined because there are many ICOs that end in scam and if in the end there are many IEOs that scam then people will also leave the IEO and surely they will return to ICO

In fact, it is almost the same. The only difference is that when the IEO token is automatically placed on the exchange. I see no other differences. in any case, you can run into a scam. Exchange can not guarantee you the integrity of the project. How was IEO with bittrex

In my opinion IEO is much secure and better than ICO if the project is with partnership with a known exchange the exchange will work as an escrow (Just like the other people said) but not just an escrow but also an assurance that the project will be listed on exchange the only disadvantage I see for that is if the project runs a bounty campaign the price might be dropped after listing or some investors won't invest during IEO but after listing on the market itself.

So far I think partnership with big exchange for IEO is good thing rather than ICO who we may not sure what will happen after ICO since most of the projects back then disappear after ICO.

The IEO is actually better than the ICO in many ways. In ICO projects, you cannot know what the team will do with your money and they can freely delay the distribution of tokens to investors without incurring any penalty. In general, investing in ICO is very risky.
Investing in IEO more easily, getting a token faster and being sold when it is listed on exchange. Besides, exchange companies will use their reputation to promote their projects and the project owner will not spend too much money to promote their projects. The IEO has brought many benefits to projects.

For IEOs investor, they dont have to wait long before the token listed in exchangers. Most ICOs developers team should make negotiation first before make listing and it takes time. For a few thing, i am agree that IEOs are better than ICOs

If IEO is on trusted and big volume exchange then IEO is better than ICo, Now mostly project use both platforms first they introduce the project in ICO then afterward in IEO.

In terms of trust IEO is better since the altcoin was listed by the exchange itself and there is less possibility of dump because the altcoin was bought on the exchange. Less risk than ICOs because there is no possibility that ICO tokens will be listed anytime or sometimes it doesn't follow its own roadmap where exchange listing dates are posted. Making IEO far better than ICO in many factors.

Because of failure happen of most ICOs in the previous year of 2018 many of our investors are leaving the ICOs and now the IEO is coming here in crypto i think i would choose the IEO than ICO but make sure if you making an investment in IEO still double check it first.

For me IEO is better than ICO because IEO have no chance of scamming their investors. We all know that those exchanges  have a name to protect and they made sure that the team behind those projects are real. The problem in IEO is that the pump and dump or price manipulation is still there.
In the other hand ICO have a big chance of scamming those investors especially  who don't dyor. What happened this past was they hit and run.They just collected the money and abandoned the project. I knew plenty of ICO like that.

For me IEO must be supported by everyone but be careful because the price action was manipulated by those whales.

IEO is 100% than ICO's. It's great to see investors opening their eye and learning from the struggles that the crypto community has experienced over the years with all these ICO scams. Listing your coin in an exchange is not a joke, it involves their platform eagerly checking your legitimacy and possibly a huge fee to pay, so we can say that projects doing IEO now are serious to deliver what they promised. An example would be this project that has one of the founders of Pokemon (http://ecomi.com?utm_source=ecomilx)'s name to protect and other startups that has someone notable. With IEO's, we can already see what our money has brought in and decide what to do with the tokens faster, you will need to wait for several months for ICO's to even release your tokens. Considering the lock up period too.

IEO is the same of ICO. The only difference is that in ICO earns the owners of the project, in IEO owns more the Exchange that is never responsable for what it happens.

The only thing that IEO does better is to prevent scams from happening, only if the token sale was held inside of a reputable exchange, other than that i don't see any special thing about IEO, go for STO if you truly want a project that will actually develop their product.

That is very well explained and I will second your statements. I am fan of IEO and this thing has been able to create a lot of buzz in crypto space and in the market lately. Some people argue that had we had IEO in 2018, we would not have lost so much money which is pretty right because ICOs were frequently conducted by the crypto teams with bad and dubious intentions.

If I were to choose between these two investing methods, I would have gone for IEOs because the chances of being scammed are very reduced as compared to that of an ICO where the devs keep the funds without looking for a better exchange to list their coin after the ico even t has completed. Of all the IEOs I have witnessed, they get listed far earlier than those of icos. I think the era of ICos has just come to an end.

ICO era is slowly depleting but they are still breathing as of this moment yet i have seen there are still projects who do make ICO.

When it comes to security then theres no doubt about IEO which i do much prefer yet tendency of scamming is lesser than ICO but
we cant still avoid or make ourselves exempted with some possible manipulation.

i think that 2 different thing you cant compare it, the main purpose is same to collect fund from tokensale.
the different is IEO already make parnertship with some exchange before they sell their token.

I don't know which is better, recently a lot of IEO don end up having a good sales in some Exchange,  which i think there's no difference between IEO and ICO,  what a project needs is the liquidity of the product and the investors will come around .

I think IEO is more secured that the old one that we used (ICO) more investors are secured in paying for their investment and this will help investors not to get scammed

it's because of lack of good ICOs. projects don't want to evolve and once raised money they just spend them without doing anything to develop the project.

Now there are already a lot of examples when the price of a coin immediately falls after IEO when listing on the exchange. there are no guarantees anywhere

IEO is better than ICO , a lot of ICOs have not be successful ending up not getting listed, some projects end up scam. Investors are really getting fed up.

For me, IEO and ICO are almost the same. Of course, IEO has one advantage, and this is that projects instantly get the opportunity to be listed on the same stock exchange. And one doesn't have to wait as in the ICO listing for six months. For the rest, they are almost the same.

In my opinion, IEO is better than ICO. The reason being that, in IEO, the coins are sold directly on an exchange but with ICO's, the team will now have to go through long processes to list their tokens on an exchange. This affects the price greatly.

They are actually identical, the difference is, IEO already partnered with the exchange.
When your project have partnered with top exchanges, it will give more confidence to investors when contributing in the project.

Indeed, less headache for investors since these exchanges claim to have done some assessment on the said projects (https://www.ecomi.com/?utm_source=ecomilx).
Let's hope they maintain this positive energy and not let corruption set in anytime soon.

If I think ICO and IEO are the same, they have the same goals, just different ways.  If ICO they raise funds on the Cryptocurrency project website, but if the IEO collects funds in the Exchange.  But because this IEO is new, so many people are looking for it, especially since in recent years many ICOs have failed, making many people think that ICO is a bad thing, and IEO is a new thing that will make changes.

+1 this. Since IEO is new then everything is just going good without any scams(or I'd say it's minimal to have scammer, at least you already get your tokens on exchange). Then once everyone knows this then it would be the same as ICO which is we don't want to see it.

IEO now provides an opportunity for any interested investor to earn money, if, of course, you will have time to buy tokens, because after listing, these tokens usually trades in several times more on the best exchanges and you can quickly sell your tokens and get a good profit.

I think so too, they are almost the same, the difference is that the IEO uses exchanher to raise funds, and investors like it, because the tokens they buy will automatically be traded immediately

Well, only it does not guarantee the price. And the work of the project in the future. This is undoubtedly an interesting mechanism. However, I am still skeptical of projects.

IEOs are way better than ICOs. Investing in an ICO, you're obsessed with the fear of being scammed or non-listing. But buying an IEO, there's no such fear. People should have a fair look on IEOs. Yes you still face the risk of loss after listing but if you can't bear loss, you should hold money or put it into banks and get interest. One more thing, never buy IEOs from less known or low volume exchanges.

Prices fall due to the disposal of mass tokens simultaneously, but at least the IEO on the exchange will reduce scammers.

in my opinion each IEO and ICO have their respective advantages in raising funds. but now many investors are turning to IEO because of the many ICO scams lately.

For investors maybe IEO are better as tokens from IEO start trading after IEO talking about IEO s very soon Moozicore will be on Combene one of few projects which really worth to buy it has real world working product so i suggest to do it.

Yes it is, taking in to account of how ICOs dealt with investors and comparing with how IEO is treating investors one will come to the agreement that IEOs are better. IEO being managed by an exchange reduces scam while protecting its users/investors in this way retaining their integrity.

When security of investors funds is taken into account then you will understand why IEOs is growing tremendously. ICO was seen as a good way to scam investors with a good number of ICOs causing investors pains.
So in my own opinion IEOs are better of than ICOs, at least there will be reduction in scams.

I've been seeing series of comparisons between ICO and IEO.  oh yes IEO is far batter than ICO in all ramifications. I remember buying into some ICOs and the shitcoins haven't been listed up till now. IEO on the other hand gives assurance of listing on exchange, and also team is usually verified by exchange.

IEO is better than ICO for investors, especially in terms of investment security. Because by investing in the IEO that directly buys from the exchange, it will keep away from scam or fraud. The number of ICO scams makes IEO good for investing in certain projects. In addition, the existence of the IEO will provide convenience to enter into the market after the project is completed

In my own opinion and experience I will say IEO is better. In IEO you only have to pass the requirements set by the exchange before participating which is unlike in ICO. Furthermore, with the exchange being in charge of carrying out verification of the team members, it will be able to ascertain the right project that is worthy to use its exchange for IEO.

The point of ICOs was to finance something in a decentralized way with no middle men. IEO is a step backwards.

Yes, IEO is better than ICO, as you know in past and now most of ICO's was scams also coming new more are scams so IEO trend is growing fast with success .

almost the same, in my opinion, the only difference is from the way of selling and now ieo is almost becoming an ico, many IEOs have confirmed that the project is scam and most of the projects come from small exchanges, if you want to invest here, you must do due first dilegence so as not to get hit by a scam project

I think there is different between IEO and ICO. IEOs held by exchangers and all marketing stuff manage by exchangers and in ICOs all handle by the team. Beside that, when project listed as IEOs, exchangers must be verify team developers or the project and ICOs all analysis did by investor

The only thing IEO is better than ICO is listing on the exchange after token sale. It's guaranteed.
Safer? Hardly. We have already seen that dubious projects may appear even on well-known exchange. It's just easier for the majority to transfer responsibility to exchange than to choose independently from dozens of projects.

IEO is a trendy three letter now. About two years back other letters were in fashion, and now some people think that if the project is conducting ICO and not IEO, than project is scam and it's doomed to failure  ???

IEO can get a bad name as quickly as ICO...

Everything will depend on what IEO evolve into. It"s necessary to say thanks to the competition between the exchanges, it makes them modernize the IEO

Project developers should make it easier for investors to invest in their project, without investors, their project is nothing, this is why IEO is more preferable for investors, they do not have to do a long and tiresome investigation if the project and the people behind it are legit because the exchange will take the responsibility.

IEO and ICO are not far apart as long as crypto investment is concern. IEO is just a modified version of ICO which helps with a smooth and fast token sales. What matters most in all these avenues (IEO, ICO) is the ability to decipher the right coin to buy. Not all coins are capable of surviving or yielding positive results on the market, hence it is necessary to know the potentials of a coin before buying, and this can be ascertain through the performance of thorough personal research.

In as much as we would agree they are same, I think there is still a slight difference. Unlike ICO, the sales for IEO is done in an exchange which gives it edge over ICO. That is to say that after sale, investors in IEO are sure of listing.

Ieo's are too early to compare for ico's . we cant say for now if ieo's are really better just because few exchanges are only involved and all of them are reputable and well known exchanges but what about in the long run ?  Lets see if the state of ieo's will still be the same or what if many bad and unkown exchange will enter the scene ?  Same thing that happened on ico's back then  .

Though too early, but we already see the effect.

Just make a small comparison based on few projects, and tell me which ICO are profitable, because I can tell you one good IEO that are still profitable until now. We will just see IEO keep growing while the ICO will slowly loss its investors due to the fact that they found a new one which is safer and better.

It just simplifies things for project owner to focus more on products, and standardize tokenizations for investors. IEO is better in every ways except the entry requirements for investor. Like stock market listing the process pretty much does the same where rich people get discounts. And the rest are being chipped away by desperate buyer hoping to make a flip, the system never changes. Investment opportunities are over the street and 10% would success unless you are a great trader that was on position to profit these new tokens.

The IEO is good because you can buy altcoins in crypto exchanges, there are many new projects that run the IEO on the new exchange market like https://exmarkets.com but we have to be careful because there are 1 project running the IEO, after success the project disappeared.

This is an advantage that will ultimately be the same as the ICO after the scammer can follow this new scheme. The IEO itself still has many shortcomings from the transparency of sales to the exchanger. this must be our concern

Matter of fact it is new trend. Which will last long little more. If we see the binance IEO they are more successful than any other exchange. So binance IEO are definitely cake for investors.

I think yes, ieo is more profitable than casual ICO, because ieo provides a good listing on good exchange and it helps to make coin more liquid.

Indeed, the IEO is not always much better because of the fact that at the moment there are many IEOs who cannot reach the target and finally the price of tokens has decreased dramatically. Actually the most important thing is how we can choose the right project. we must be smarter and try to make the best decisions because when we fail we will lose a lot of money. ICO and IEO are actually not much different, the difference is the decision we will make. The decisions we make will determine the future we will get.

That is one of the advantages of the IEO compared to ICO. But in reality investing people want to make a profit. So if investing in the IEO is not profitable, of course people will invest in the ICO. Because what I know is all investments, both IEO and ICO investments do not guarantee a profit. And now many people prefer to invest in the IEO.

I think the only difference between ICO and IEO is that, if the project has been launched in an exchange it will be listed in a few weeks or months or even immediately while in an ICO, you will wait few months or years sometimes. There are times too that they will not list it on an exchange leaving it a dead coin and at the same time a scam coin.

Its a bit similar but IEO have more security and you can avoid scam projects, but it does not mean you can always make a profit out of it the worst thing that could happen is buying a worthless token because of the huge bounty and airdrop that they offer and a lazy dev.

In the end IEO is the same as ICO... I agree that at first IEOs tend do be more structured and trustworthy as they were held in major exchanges and the projects were deeply screened ... but after massification, with the huge number of exchanges (both shaddy and regular), IEO will turn out into the same as the ICOs with a slight upgrade

Both IEO and ICO are good but there are difference between them like giving extra percent from your investment is called bunos, IEO is good for investment if the exchanges are trusted and no bad history from many investors.

In terms of security, IEO can beat the ICOs for the long term investing, exchanges are happy to also manage the token sales. Even small exchanges started to make a new IEO announcement for increasing their annual revenue.

From various factor and IEO is much better than ICO but not all of IEOs give the best result and there was a lot of IEOs that bring investors to the lose. for me, HNC looks a better choice than IEO or ICO. It was creating a useful product.

  I think ICO was better when it was 2017 and 2018. Right now, we have the more advanced fundraising model called IEO and I think it will be very instrumental in adding further crypto projects into the mainstream which was not added by ICO due to dubious project scams. SO IEO is going great and especially in the leading exchanges like Binance, it has been huge success.

in my opinion only the method is the difference between IEO and ICO. if it is said to be superior, for me the IEO is quite convincing for investors compared to ICO. the beginning of the emerging IEO was very surprising for the newcomers.

In 2019, there have already been 32 IEOs launched, and these completed IEOs have raised over $159 million. The success rate of IEO seems to grow, at present. IEOs have its advantages like trust, security, marketing strategy, and listing. People believes that IEOs can revolutionize the industry by eliminating scam and dubious projects from raising funds, which have been evident with ICOs. This might be a smart move for companies but not all projects might benefit from IEOs. Well-preparedness in terms of business model, app, vision, budget, among others must be considered.

This are fake statistics. IEO have the exchange interest to earn more money. There is nothing serious to invest in IEO. It just seems that filing a Google spreadsheet with some data and have a registered company and some profiles tht Exchanges rate you positively... No, their goal is always to earn money.

In fact, the meaning is the same. Raise money to promote and develop startups. To promote your own token, but the difference is that the project will have more confidence if the tokens are sold through the exchange and not through the project website. In most cases, after the IEO, the token has value.

IEO and ICO are basically the same things. Only the method of operations sets the two apart. ICOs are token sales that hold on the platform of the project owners. IEOs, on the other hand, hold their token sale on a third party cryptocurrency exchange. Why this is a bit better is that important documentation is submitted to the exchanges before they can agree to host such sales on their own platform

As the IEO going well and most of IEO successful due to trust in exchanges,so ICO's are not trust-able and investor not investing in ICO's.

This is a very impressive number and I believe that the IEO can replace ICO in the near future because currently ICO projects are not trusted by people and I am very bored to read a bad ICO project. In my opinion, IEO is getting more and more popular and if projects are on the right track it will be very beneficial for investors because this is just the beginning of the IEO and there will be many other good projects waiting so be ready for new era that we dream of because i believe only the IEO can help us become richer faster.

IEO is more popular than ICO.  Last year, many ICO company generated  money. They have not list their token on exchange still.
That is why IEO is more reliable the ICO. User think it is  listed on Exchange so it is good. But to be honest, IEO doesn't guarantee the success of the coin.

At present, many developer teams are turning to using the IEO method instead of ICO. Besides being easier in achieving sales targets, with the IEO method, the developer team can focus more on developing its products.

maybe for now yes, because many people claim about it and also many ico investors take part in IEO. but whatever it is I think between IEO and ICO is just as good, if I personally see one of them is worthy of being followed, then I will follow them.

IEOs experiencing a boom, especially on Binance. Almost every IEO on Binance could be sold in a profit because there is a great interest in buying, but not everyone manages to buy in the IEO sale.

That's the main reason why Binance IEOs are so successful. The demand is much bigger than the supply and only the lucky ones (who already hold a good amount of BNB) are allowed to invest.

As far as m concerned, none is better... IEO is also advanced ICO. I have seen a lot of scammed IEOs  as much as I have seen scammed ICo projects. One just have to be careful on the space.

At first glance, investors in IEO are better protected from fraud, but this is not true. Many people also lose their money at IEO. You just need to choose projects very carefully as it was before with the ICO

I guess yes, specially today that IEO has more potential to make people wamt to invest with it rather than ICO. And IEO is more profitable than the usual ICO. Because todays ICO has alot of project thats not real and eventually a fraud project which tends to make the investors kept away to invest to the ICO. But through this, IEO is not the only alts that make a good fortune to every investors or traders in the marketplace, so I suggest the ACI COIN token for you all to try and have a great future investment.

Why people in cryptocurrency always comparing this two ? For me they are both okay but i dont look in what fundraising the project will do but i look for the potential project and that is the most important thing like Dencoin tokens they open ico but the project is to good to make investments so must try ACI COIN.

People nowadays has been very wise in terms of investing in crypto, actually, there's very less investors now compare to past years wherein  almost all ICO  has been successful. But due to what happened those past years, people has been now wiser too and they are actually just investing in Bitcoin or in top coins rather than investing in ICO/IEO. But so far, IEO is much better compare to ICO.

Definitely IEO is some better than ICO but in the some specific exchanges IEO's. But there are no difference between fake exchanges IEO's instead of ICO's if you willing to compared. Trusted big exchanges IEO's can something guaranteed to safe your money and huge profitable.

People are not interested to invest an ICO project because here a lot of confusion about exchange listing.

Somehow it is slightly better, but once the IEO project goes away from the top exchanges, that's gonna need a lot of investigation for sure. We can say a certain project work also at the exchange that their coins will be listed but turns out it is a scam anyway, and from that, people should be wary. I don't know if most of these upcoming IEOs are planning to get listed in tops though like Binance.

That's why we really need to be vigilant all the time, we don't need to become too aggressive in investing. IEO is really popular and more legit than ICO but it will never be an assurance that it will give you high profit and will make you rich, still you need to choose the right project and the right exchange.

IEO and ICO are investment methods for collecting funds from project investors. they have differences from each other, especially the risk of cheating in IEO is smaller when compared to ICO. on the other hand ICO's current reputation looks bad and some IEO projects that are listed on large exchanges, are still much preferred by project investors.

Of course, it is! IEO is more transparent than ICO! Anybody with zero funds can arrange an ICO, but for an acceptable IEO, you have to spend some money! No one knows which ICO gonna scam, but if you go through a good exchange's IEO, then you won't get scam for sure! Though IEO is not perfect but it is still better than ICO!

IEO is safer than ICO because IEO uses a third party that is exchange to run IEO programs so there is no risk of getting a scam because the exchange uses several conditions for the IEO program to run on the exchange

of course you alright in EIO will not get Scam because any exchange to be listed. but remember that many EIO after launched on the market, coins from EIO has lower price so there is no investor get their profit. it make many investor not interest with EIO anymore and now EIO die

compare EIO with Ico, i think better ICO season. in 2017 ico give investor and bounty hunter some profit, yes at least so before it also dies

For me, both methods that ICO or IEO are a good opportunity for profit. Both methods are very good in that when projects develop and achieve good business results. Both methods at that moment are very promising and have great potential for investment.

IEO and ICO are not much different from each other. In the current state of the cryptocurrency market, IEO is slightly better, since it guarantees investors the opportunity to trade a new token on a predefined exchange. However, anyway, fundraising in the IEO format does not solve the main problem and does not protect investors from fraudulent projects. Recent studies have shown that in more than 90 percent of cases, new tokens issued invariably fall in price, as in ICO projects.

Of course, people compare them because IEO is the new way in fundraising and ICO is the old one. As we know that IEO becomes popular currently, people can see the listing of a project coin in exchange from the beginning. While the popularity of ICO is going to decrease since many of ICO projects are indicated as failed projects or scam projects.

You do the right way. Basically, the focus must be on the quality of the project, not in the way of the fundraising. However, we cannot avoid that IEO projects are more potential than ICO projects nowadays.

This is unfortunately true for many altcoins. The new projects barely seen or survive the market for long because even they are being sold or dumped, their prices are continuously decreasing up to the point that the exchanger no longer list the altcoin

They have been few IEOs compared to ICOs. Also if we consider peak ICO period, IEOs are not comparable. ICOs returned as much as 1000% interest and I'm yet to see an IEO do same.

Whether it is IEO or ICO the growth is associated with the quality as well as the realtime usage of the project. Very few projects gets perfect team for development, promotions, funding and for other needs. Recently IEO gained more importance, but this too got into the hands of scammers. So everywhere we need to be careful while making an investment on IEO or ICO.

I think it's almost the same, nothing is much different. I think trading at the beginning (IEO), also can not be sure that the token will end well at the end of the Iso period and officially launched to the public. isn't that almost the same as the ICO method? that determining which token will be valuable or not, is after its release to the public. so in my opinion, the two methods between IEO and ICO are just as good, but the most important thing is the team's effort to get liquidity on their tokens at the start of the launch will get high volumes, not only from their investors, but everyone in general so that prices can pump up .

comparing those two bcz we wanna get good investment place
In crypto, those fundraising are the way to buy coin in inital offering

I would be easy to say that IEO is better than ICO. ICO era is end, most of them is just a shit
IEO is held by exchange which would be strict to launch project.
Not all project can be launched bcz of about exchange trust

IEO has become a new trend of investors and this type of investment has been very popular recently. I think the current IEO projects at the big exchanges can help you make a big profit if you're lucky and don't spend too much time waiting. In my opinion, it is best to participate in IEO at Binance, Kucoin or Huobi because these are the 3 best exchanges for everyone.

Currently, ICO are risky because 99% are scams and are not encouraged to invest because you can lose money anytime if the development team disappears.

Indirectly, the fraud project contributed to the crypto conditions until a bearish trend occurred. many of the investors run out of money because they are fooled into a project. I think the ICO died because someone who used the opportunity to make money instantly, but with the IEO, the fraudsters have less room to move

I do not think that ICO truly benefits all investors, because there are so many projects with fake products in it, so that makes investors afraid and leave ICO. it's possible, IEO is here to try to restore investor confidence in crypto with a different method from ICO. but true, IEO has not been able to perform better than ICO, because in it there are still useless projects.

That's why I no longer interested investing in ICO anymore and I discouraged my friends investing on it as well, for IEO, I am investing in some reputable exchange but of course it also depends, I become more wiser now and just don't invest in some project because of the hype and the good market they bring but  because they met deadlines, roadmaps and they have real products

Yes, we have to be in a selective way, which it is impossible for us to keep so investing in everything. I hope IEO are fair better than ICO because we should carefully watch them before investing and also we have to choose the best exchange for IEO. We have to check both reputations about the exchange and the company.

But IEO also has lots of scam projects for small exchanges.  I have worked on several IEO projects on Bitsdaq such as Ichain and at Exmarket, resulting in those projects being scam as well as ICOs.  no listed, no notice about roadmap.  Therefore, IEO projects still need to be checked for whitepaper and team.  Do not blindly invest.

In ICO era we have many interesting investors who are ready to invest their last penny on ICO projects but scammers ruin it all, now that IEO is the only solution left to turn to we never see any huge money raising like the past days of ICO

Investing in IEOs with a reputable exchange is the forward towards avoiding scams associated with ICOs exchanges are more or less like a regulator for IEO of course the wouldn't want to disrepute their exchange due to shady deals while IEOs might not be as profitable as ICOs nevertheless investors confidence is most Paramount and restored.

Real products become a distinct advantage for a project where people will prefer to invest in projects that have real use cases because for them projects like this will allow developers to continue to make updates about their projects and develop to be able to improve the products they bring and also attracts more investors to invest in it.

IEO made on small Exchange like, Exmarket, P2PB2B, Latoken, will certainly never be successful, because the market is already not trusted by many investors. But if IEO on a large Exchange such as Binance, Kucoin I am very sure that the IEO project will be successful. While the ICO project in my opinion has expired at this time.

basically the same, only differences in support and platform. if ICO is done privately (by the project team itself) then IEO is supported by the exchange. and it will be easier to reach the target, if you use a large exchange. in my opinion, IEO is better than ICO. because it has a guarantee to investors to get profits (guarantees for large exchanges) so that 80% of investors trust IEO more than ICO.

Maybe the project team has their own reasons for launching IEO on a small exchange, and should before launching they do research on each exchange because it's very important to attract investors to invest in their projects.

I agree with you. Most of IEO projects listed at well-known exchanges always help investors earn a good return and usually don't take too long to wait. In fact, whenever there is IEO news at these exchanges, I always feel very excited and look forward to the opportunity to participate because investors participate a lot.

Of course that only happens at big exchanges and exchanges like Latoken, p2pb2p will not attract any investors because most of the projects here are scam projects.

I don't think there's much difference between them. The difference is in the place where the token is offered. An IEO is technically a form of ICO. Investors are not interested in ico because of a lot of scam ico that's why most of the project running IEO instead of ico.

ICO were a trend of investment in 2017 and it was really a time when many investors were happy because so many projects had a huge increase and many people became rich. However, in the last 2 years, this investment trend has ceased and current ICO projects are scams, so it will certainly not attract investors. I think 2020 will be a time for IEO because this is a form that looks much safer than ICO.

IEO was meant to be an upgrade of ICO but because of the way the crypto market is in decline now, IEO may not be able to act as the best way to raise money for new crypto projects

In my opinion, IEO on a small exchange the result is the same as ICO, most of them will fail because investors are now more careful in investing. they don't want to be stuck in the old way, because IEO on a big exchange is sure to be successful and you will benefit. in fact, we can already see a good quality of IEO, it must be listed in a big market because most of them already have a good project that has been checked by a big market.

You can think of ieo's as an upgrade of ico's, but both are the same thing in the end. Start ups that needs money for further development, and here we talk about the valid projects, not about scams. What is ieo actually? Well with ico is simple you check their official page and there you buy their coin/token directly from then, but now with ieo's exchanges are conducting the sales! In some way they vouch for the project, and if nothing else you know that after sale coin will be listed for sure.
But can we trust centralized exchanges? I don't think so, not all the time, not 100%, never! After all they take commission for everything they do, is it a sale, is it a trade, is it a listing, they make profit everything! Ieo's are just better on the first look, but after all its a crowdfunding, one way or another.

True, and at this time it is still visible security in IEO, but scammers will always look for loopholes to get into IEO, like they did with the ICO before, thus making ICO's reputation tainted in the eyes of investors.

The ICO era has probably passed, because less and less ICO is happening and more and more IEO, people have more trust in large exchanges - organizers of coin sales.

it is very difficult to do IEO in binance, only a small number of projects can do it. they choose small exchanges because of low costs and not too difficult requirements. this concerns the success of the project, the team should pay more attention to this issue. Such small exchanges have few users and it makes the success rate for a project very small.

IEOs are better than ICO in sense that if you invest in IEO of a reputable platform then chances of scam are almost zero. In terms of ROI they are not very different then ICOs. AFAIK there are very few IEOs that have given good return, that’s why IEO craze if also getting lower.

No. It is more about the actual project then the distribution method. Why are people so worried about the distribution method? It is not important what is important is the quality of the project. People are all stuck up on categorising everything in one group for silly reasons and this is why so many people lose their money.


I agree and it is better when there is someones rep on the line.

It all depends on your goals and aspirations. As a rule, this is earnings, in this case IEO cannot boast of special results (globally), however, in general, this method is trite safer.
You will get your money back almost 100% likely, the only question is how much they will cost after IEO, there are no guarantees. Of course, the choice of exchange will affect all of the above criteria.

Why people in cryptocurrency always comparing this two ? For me they are both okay but i dont look in what fundraising the project will do but i look for the potential project and that is the most important thing like ACI COIN tokens they open ico but the project is to good to make investments so must try ACI coin.

Most investors are more convinced to join IEOs nowadays because they feel the assurance that the token will be listed on that exchange once IEO is finished. ICO on the other hand, even though the project has reached soft cap, some of the tokens never get listed on exchange.

ICO and IEO have in common it's just that they have different methods
ICO partners not in partnership with exchanges and many run away with investors' money after they reach the softcap and there are even some that are not registered until now
IEO partners with an exchange and is traded immediately when IEO ends, this makes investors more secure when investing and does not have to wait long to sell tokens after IEO ends

people are differentiating between both of these because there is a difference in benefits for the investors. One is that if the sale on exchange, means that if it is IEO then the investors will be secured and none of the developers can run away with the money of investors and in the ICO the funds are collected with the developers so the developers can run away to scam the investors. Other point is that with IEO the investors will know that on which exchange the coin will be traded so they will know that how will the coin perform and how much traders will participate in the trade of this coin.

Not type of crowdfunding matters, but every particular solution. We cannot say that any form is better than another, however we can definitely say that one or another solution has value and is beneficial for users. This is the thing that makes different. What makes sense to me these days - blockchain helping in spheres where it can bring real benefits. For example, I am considering the ticketing market being nontransparent. And solution that is setting new standards here is GET protocol. Guys are bringing blockchain with very advanced tech. They are very successful now, being ticket partner for Oerrock festival, being partnered with Klaitn and more. Have a look and share your thoughts

in fact the two almost have something in common like a fundraiser for a project. but in my opinion that the presence of IEO has attracted the attention of investors, especially the risk of fraud in IEO is smaller than the ICO project. IEO comes at a good time especially when ICO's reputation looks bad. on the other hand the most important thing is to be a wise investor. don't get too excited when you see an IEO / ICO project that offers big prizes. alert!

IEOs are safer than ICOs because the exchange's reputation is on the line. I invest in IEOs on regulated exchanges like ecxx only.

The transformation from ICO to IEO is something done by quality projects. IEO is not easy, bypassing many conditions, in contrast to ICO which is mostly done directly. IEO has an intermediary exchange. And I think it's better to get a lot of investors, who still stick to the ICO, don't have a guarantee the project will be on target.

Big matter is trust than faster funds rise. ICO hasn't support by anything or confirm listed any exchange but IEO is already confirmed to listed after IEO. I think before ICO or IEO, if any project can confirm any big partnership or top exchange, funds rise will be easier than normal ICO.

But in IEOs we also have to check that on which exchange will it be listed and we have to notice that is that exchange a trusted one for our investment or not. There are many exchanges which do not have much trust rate and which show a fake report of the fund raise and show a fake report of their trade volume so investing in there and after the end not seeing any trade volume is much bad than any ICO.

I think it's just the same, IEO will list the exchanges directly where the project takes place, and ICO has to pay some exchanges to be able to list the projects there.

I agree and there's a simple way how invest only on the top exchanges i think most of us and crypto people knows it where to invest and what exchange is much safer than the newly created exchanges. By means of IEO sure it will be a fast money especially if the project is bog and known to people so we can deny tha truth that IEO is much better

the difference lies in marketing and advertising. when the project collaborates with the exchange to sell IEO, the promotion carried out by the exchange will help because they have a community that trades and invests in the exchange. the greater the exchange, of course, the possibility of IEO success will also be even greater.

Well, the official confirmation of getting listed before starting to raise funds, it has been a key to opening the heart to investors who can only make a profit or lose a little, no concept will lose everything like an ICO, so IEO is a similar version but solves the concern of customers, the ICO just waits until the day it is phased out, ending its life. However, like many other investment methods, IEO is only slightly improved, one day a change in the title will appear, something will be better than IEO, this is the period that shows the rise of the market

But that ease of access is what makes it more remarkable than ICOs. IEOs are better for people who are into altcoin trading because it's easier and safer to profit on IEOs than ICOs who takes forever just to har their coins be listed on the exchange. It gives a sense of assurance on the investors end that makes them more trusted than ICOs are. Whilst ICOs are generally for people who are into cryptocurrency trading to secure their future. So they are both good in their own ways really.

In 2019, IEO has proven your question. IEO has completely replaced ICOs and it has helped many new projects succeed in the bear market. There are many IEO projects of major exchanges that have helped investors gain profits, especially Binance, Okex exchanges ... But now IEO suddenly disappears without any reason. And IEO ROI is also starting to decrease compared to before

but that's still not enough. not many projects that do IEO can get success. many factors occur in the market. but IEO hasn't helped crypto market growth.

Coins are being listed right after they have agreed with an exchange that will ve the host of the IEO. I am more into the IEO since in the past years, when ICO will be ended some of the projects took months before having an exchange, many people will dump their coin right away, some of them will not pay for listing fee and will run with their fund as well.

Guys, of course, all your statements have common sense and each review has its own rational kernel.  But it seems to me that in the current period it would be nice to provide statistics on implemented IEO projects and what results these projects showed.  It seems to me that more than 90% of all IEO projects have not yet shown their worth at all, even despite the fact that trading immediately took place on such famous exchanges as binance.

IEO and ICO are both birds of the same feathers.  The only thing distinguishing them is just the method of operations.  While IEOs are usually listed or done on exchanges,  it is not applicable to ICOs. So aside this, I think IEO and ICO are both same thing.  Just a change in name. Nothing different. I stand to be corrected  though!

Yup kind of as IEO are more trusted as compared to ICO view but at last it depend on project. It is also true that on average basis IEO receive more funds than regular ico and we are seeing trend shifted towards IEO.

for the moment I think both are equally bad. I mean the presence of the IEO project today is like a market trend, it doesn't last long and only for a moment. honestly at this time I no longer see IEO projects or ICO projects that are truly profitable for investment. they only offer sweet promises and I hate to say this.

regarding the profits we can get in investments, of course, IEO is not better than ICO, because there is still a greater risk for us to get losses than profits after investing in IEO, but regarding security I think IEO is slightly better than ICO because usually exchanges will do checks that are strict against the IEO project to avoid the IEO project is a fraud, but certainly not all exchanges can guarantee that the IEO project is really potential and far from fraud. , so we who invests in IEO also remain rigorous and careful in choosing IEO projects to invest.

Obviously true because most IEOs are still crappie. The truth sometimes is like a bitter pill, very hard to swallow, I like the fact that you pointed out their similarity. Well, IEO is still better than ICO if and only if the IEO is done on a reputable exchange and not otherwise.

the most important part of trading is being able to process information. many factors a coin will rise. including news from dev or platform updates. so far I don't believe in presumptions in trading.

IEO is much better than ICO, but yes its true that its still unsure if IEO is profitable but alteast the coin/token will be listed, unlike ICO, listing still questionable, but its very important that the IEO will be concluded in reputable exchanger like Binance and most importantly, check everything about the project and dont concentrate about the price, you should know the essence of the project in the long run

but we cant deny that ico are also good the old times ,the only reason why ico fails is because of scam projects that uses ico just to steal  money from investors. Before ,a project can reached its hard cap in just days using ico which is the most exciting when you joined on thier bounty campaign..

yes, ieo is better than ico.
almost 80% ico is failed to launch on a good exchange.
on the other hand in ieo there is a confirmed exchange and rather than low risk to invest.

This comparison is somewhat hard, the reason is that, they are almost the same thing, the only difference I know about them is, IEO means Initial Exchange Offering while ICO is Initial Coin Offering, where they both focus on crowd sales to raise fund for their projects. IEO seems to gain much trust based on the fact that they are making their sals in exchanges.

IEO is high risk high return system. it wont 100% safe for investors. that's what should we understand.

so, who's not serious here? the project or exchange itself?
if the project wont go to exchange and start IEO, it's clear that the project which is not serious. or they are just a shit which doesnt pass requirement

So true. In the past the ICO was very profitable because many projects were able to achieve the targets they wanted and could provide benefits that could be said to have a price and benefit for us and when compared to now many projects ended in failure because of the many scam projects and also the difficulty get funding to reach softcap.

Only changes in the system between ICO and IEO, actually only provide convenience and try to have protection. but all is of no use if as a whole do not want a significant change. because a change in the system will not make people who cheat will not try to do it again. what is needed is cooperation between all so that naughty practices can be avoided.

I think Ieo will be better than ico because every project that wants to ieo on an exchange will verify the quality of its own project, to avoid cases of fraudulent projects. run out of money to invest, and investing in ieo is also safer as you can know some of the exchanges when you buy ieo will know for sure that their prices will increase after listing on the exchange.

Agree with you, both are meant for raising money, have the same opinion, that's why till now I never invested in both the ICO and IEO. My only choice, I always choose to trade the coins in Binance exchanges, because I find it very comfortable with the coin listed there.

They are both birds of same feathers and for me persoNally I believe none is to be trusted anymore, ICO was good 2years ago and there has been good profit before scam destroyed it and then we were Thinking IEO was ta better solution only for all this Exchanges to be listing all this dead scam projects and running away with peoples money ... none is better

IEO has all the things an investor needs when trading and if listed at big exchange your chances of making a profit will be very high.

In fact, there aren't many good projects for you to invest in this time, but when there is news of a new IEO project at high liquidity exchanges, it will surely attract a lot of investors. Last year I made a huge profit from this type of investment and hope this year will be more favorable if I lucky.

Although Ieo is not better than Ico, but at least Ieo can make investors feel more secure in participating Ieo, because investors do not need to be afraid or worried if later the coin does not have an exchange like Ico coins, because usually projects that put on Ieo in an exchange such as probit, binance or other exchanges certainly most likely the tokens will be listed on the exchange.

why is that difficult? it certainly looks different. lies in the sales system, such as ICO does not have an exchanger, while IEO has a partnership with IEO. however, many people feel IEO is better. it's just that, until now, the development of IEO is not like 2019. I think people are also starting to lose their trust.

Well to be honest, its almost the same thing
Both tokens are new
Except the fact that one is listed immediately on the exchange whom conduct the IEO
One is not

Honestly now, after all said and done, and no matter how you look at it, IEO still by far is better than ICO. And to me, I think the benefits are both for the project developers and the investors alike. IEO offers both parties a faster means of clearing several hurdles towards listing and trading of the crypto asset in question.

That's right, they are just the same, you still need to be vigilant before investing, IEO sometimes just more legit when they are listed on reputable exchange but doesn't mean that it will give you profit that you are expecting, still it depends on the project side how good they are in the market.

IEO for now better,that the fact i see,so far many newcomers stand on top 100 based on IEO project,like IEO from Binance,kucoin.
but sometimes,ICO have a good project such as Ferrum Network.

   We can't find any reliable statistics about ICO's nor for IEO's. When there are no reliable statistics, graphs, we can only take individual
experiences as valid ones. Some people had good experience with ICO's some didn't not. Looking at current situation it's the same with
IEO's.
   My experience with ICO's is generally good. I made few mistakes, but overall I am satisfied. IEO's are popular at moment, I participated in
one IEO bounty, and after few months I still wait for results, bounty is over but IEO is ongoing! We will see what will be with that.

if in my opinion they are still the same, because the main purpose is only to seek profit and the name on the marketcap is certain.

Both are the same. What distinguishes good or not is not based on token sales methods. But based on the project.
IEO or ICO doesn't matter as long as the project is good with a solid team. And it seems also, investors can certainly judge which projects will evolve in the future. They can even see which projects will be listed on the big exchange.

ICO lost its trust and IEO is trying to fix this but seem impossible without the help of top exchanges, people or investors should just let go of ICO because its not coming back, the future will only present new type of fund raising, we already see IMO which is doing well presently

i agree with who is saying they are same. if the project is good, both way of two works for authors. IEO just looks one step forward. because you don't have to wait for exchanges to implement coin on their markets. in the meantime a really good project always be listed in exchanges. you dont need to worried about it.

My opinion IEO is better than ICO. Most of ico is failed, scammed and investors lost their money. so a lot of Investors move to ieo. I think IEO is more safe than ico. But you should more research where you want to invest.   

IEOs provide additional liquidity. When taking part in ICO you may wait for the exchange listing - this can take a loooong time :)
Sometimes people are waiting for months or even years lol :)

In some ways, IEO might look like a safe way to invest in new projects because the funds are held by exchangers. Therefore, in my opinion the safest way is to follow the IEO organized by a reputable exchanger

thats one of the advantage of ieo to ico, but getting back before once ico reached thier hardcap it will immediately listed on a good exchange , projects conducting ieo to unknown exchanges  does not even help some of the projects. Ive joined projects that thier ieo is being conducted on latokem, p2b,  most of them failed.

I think ICO and IEO are the same because their goals are the same to raise funds. it's just that the method used is different. IEO projects work together with exchanges. sometimes IEO projects that work with small exchanges cannot last long on the crypto market and become a failed project. so if we join the IEO project we also have to be careful and do some research.

Nowadays, people will prefer IEO more than ICO. Oh wait, we don't see that much ICOs lately. Might be because there were too many scammed or failed ones, which make the team decided to switch to IEO. Where in ICO you need to wait according to their roadmap before they get listed, and IEO is a lot simpler way where they will be listed not long after the project launches on the related exchanges.

Both has their own pros and cons. Because IEOs are more popular these days, so ICO not really a thing anymore, not now at least.

You said it right, but people look ICO now as a scam but IEO is promising, as long as its on a reputable exchange.

You are basing your judgement on the market for the last 2 years I guess, but those times the market is bearish, so the crowdsale was really affected hard.

they are the same, but the effectiveness of these two systems is now not very visible. many projects but not many successful now. even ICO may not be used much anymore. in the future, there might be better alternatives for the new project investment market.

what popular at this time is just IEO. Most big exchange holds that type fundraising
I think IEO would be the next ICO, it would lead new project born while next bull run happen.

We dont too need another fundraising type. What we more need is the quality of project
Bcz I think IEO is enough to get interested from investors

I think ICO and IEO are the same. IEO is an upgrade from ICO. Both sell tokens to fund their projects. When many ICO projects became a scam, investors began to switch to IEO. then, is IEO safe? not really. Some IEO projects become dumps after being listed on an exchange and no longer have a movement.

people switched to IEO only thanks to Binance. Of course, everyone wanted to take part in projects that immediately will be listed on the most popular exchange. all the people wanted to make money. buy and immediately sell after trading will start. There was very high competition for the buy possibility of these tokens. the bad thing is that people did not understand that no one guarantees the quality of such projects and now a lot of people just sit with BTT, for example, in their portfolios. Of course, that ICO and IEO the same.

That's why we should always choose the right exchange for IEO, even I am very much keen to invest in IEO, we are seeing the price of IEO decreases after listing in the exchanges, that's why we should always choose the best exchange for investing in IEO.

Does choosing the best exchange to invest IEO guarantee that the token will be expensive? not necessarily. It depends on the potential of the project in working, running and developing.

Depend on the exchange in which ieo is to be conduct otherwise there is not such difference between them and recently many ieo project flop so if ieo is on big exchange like binance,kucoin then ieo is better.

Indeed. It does not depends on exchanges if the project will have a good value because it really depends on how good is the project, if it the project was really successful. There are still IEO projects that are good but still low in exchanges. Also, i think IEO is better than ICO because there are low scam projects and unsuccessful projects in IEO than ICO.

I really think so considering the fact that IEO's are more secured than ICO and there's a little chance that the token may get listed on the exchange soon after the IEO unlike ICO

don't think about tokens going to be expensive first, no new altcoin can touch their initial offer price at this time. IEO in the best exchanges guarantees competent trading volume and not a scam compared to ICOs that move with their own websites, that's an assumption that needs to be prioritized first. project development will be sustainable given how difficult it is for them to finally be traded on the exchange, they will not waste the opportunity.

It is better if the ieo is on platform that are well known not to be promoting scam and dead project. This is because it give the team the privilege to raise money directly from crypto traders and most time, the duration is short compare to ICO

IEO is a little better than ICO, it ensures the tokens are listed at the exchange after the token sale ends. But after the token is listed, I don't guarantee it is better than the ICO, because today a lot of IEOs have been dumped right after being listed in exchanges. It is better not to invest in IEO or ICO at this time, so buy the top altcoins in the market and hold. It will make you a lot safer than new projects

Yes we can say that IEO is a lot better than ICO. They are the same fundraising but the advantages that IEO have over ICO is that it will get listed on an exchange when the fundraising is done, it gives the investors some confidence since they can sell it right away fundraising ended. And the most important thing is that it gives marketing on the project from the exchange itself.

I think this is about the only striking difference - finding an exchange to list on. Apart from this, both are the same this day with tokens crashing as soon as they get to the market and investors don't get to make any profit. Gone are the days when IEOs brought in a great ROI for investors. Not any more. Except things change going forward.

For me, IEO and ICO are not much different. They are similar in collecting money to fund idea. IEO is just an advanced mode of collecting money and it claims to provide investment security more than ICO. But talking about investment security, there are crypto projects launching IEO on exchanges are running away under different pretexts.

It is definitely yes coz IEO is a revolutionary type of ICO

In fact, IEO still has many strengths, which make many investors feel interested in investing. I think IEO will take less time and certainly you will not have to wait too long to sell that coin.

In addition, high liquidity is something that any investor wants, so it is sure that IEO will be much better than ICO. However, you should only join IEO at big exchanges that are proposed to reduce the risk when choosing to invest.

i think IEO better then ICO but scam is every where due to scam project sell your tokens and run no polecy abut that it is not god for investors

IEO will certainly be the preferred choice for many investors because this form is very popular in this market and a lot of successful IEO projects in 2019. In my opinion, this year the trend of IEO investment will be more and you should consider carefully before making a decision because there will certainly be some scam projects appear at bad exchange and certainly you will lose money if you join.

They both have their own strengths and weaknesses, it just so happened that the altcoin community is so focused on investing and gaining profits right now that IEOs rise. Low blows on ICO's end with the constant scams and trust issues among the investors made people think bad of ICOs. But all in all they are really good ways to promote cryptocurrency investing in my opinion.

IEO and ICO have the same goal of raising funds but have different methods
for better effectiveness, IEO compared to ICO because IEO has to go through various data checks related to project development and also data validation so that IEO will be safer than ICOs that anyone can do.

indeed IEO can be said to be safer but there are still risks. moreover, many IEOs are now in exchange for small trading volumes. it certainly makes a doubt for investors. all ICO or IEO systems have their advantages and disadvantages. the fact was that ICO had also been very successful in developing the crypto market.

IEO is really much better than ICO because ICO projects has a huge numbers of scam and unsuccessful projects. Most IEO project are also in good exchanges, that is why a lot of investors trust IEO. The only problem in IEO projects are their KYC policies, but they are still better than ICO.

Well for me, I would like to go to IEO because the waiting time in this kind of project is shorter than the ICO. They are paying sometimes weekly that will make you feel confident that they are not a scam. Unlike in ICO, you are having a doubt if they are going to pay or not since the waiting time there is longer than IEO.

Now it is already possible to draw some results and draw conclusions whether IEO is better or not than ICO. If you compare them directly (for the same time period), then IEO was more interesting for investors. But if we compare with a more successful period in 2017-2018, then the result is obvious …

The thing is that, IEO and ICO are the same, the only little difference is that, they are been vetted by an established name, so it makes people to love IEO than ICO.

I think with all the ICO scams and IEO's are very different, if you wanted to invest in a ICO you had to do lots of research about the project.
Now with a IEO you don't have to worrie about it being a scam let's take for example Binance they made sure the IEO's they introduce are not scams and investigated everything for you already, you know they are going to be on the exchange you already use, and have a huge investor base that will be able to hear and invest in the IEO which is a huge benefit.
Binance is basicly taking away all the risk for you, so that is a very big difference to a ICO.

In my opinion, an IEO is better than an ICO because an IEO provides much more financial security than an ICO and the possibility of the digital asset, the said fund is being raised for been listed is very high.  Investors are aware of this trend in fund raising and prefer this method of ICO.

That's right, the only question is the safety of your funds regarding these two types of fundraising. Perhaps the most important thing is the choice of the exchange.
After all, even on medium and poor exchanges, IEO is no different from ICO, because the risks of being beaten are very high.

IEO brings dubious profits, but if you decide to participate, choose the top exchange.

Investors are now clearly very clever in choosing the direction of their investment, and now the ICO reputation has been completely submerged, making IEO a good trend for investment, although it still has to use research, because there is also an IEO that is not good enough to be used as a farm. investation.

IEO is becoming an investment trend that everyone is interested in and this type of investment will surely bring a lot of profits to investors. However, before joining IEO, you should consult other people because in this market there are many IEO scam projects appearing at many different exchanges. Currently, you should only consider participating in top 5 exchanges with the best liquidity because these are the exchanges that have had many successful IEO projects.

Investing in IEO is a lot of risky, so now every day we see a lot of new IEO camming in market that has not any  project. so Ishould't invest in an IEO without researching . But several IEO's we have seen that investing has made a lot of profit , so don't invest in an IEO without research 

Everything is risky in terms of investing and i agree on that, a person or an individual investor is a must to have a research before investing it is not a joke if we are going to invest with high risk and low possibility of reward. In some IEO we can earn big profit because of hype that's it as if it is a reputable project and exchange no wonder how it is not that popular the IEO will be going to succeed in raising funds and make big amount of roi for that hype only.

If I think between the two projects is the same but the method used is different, but for now I still believe in ICO although IEO easier to use because the time we use is not so long and we can quickly If I think between the two projects is the same but the method used is different, but for now I still believe in ICO although IEO easier to use because the time we use is not so long and we can quickly Get results, and nowadays already many investors are already switching to IEO because currently the ICO project is already a lot of scamer so it is not safe anymore for us to use

indeed there are still so many IEO that end up with a scam, but IEO is better than ICO now, ICO is very risky and it is still uncertain whether to enter the exchange or not, but for IEO it will definitely be listed

I'm sure everyone who invests in IEO, has certainly done the research first. But sometimes we never know that the project will survive or not in the crypto market, because we realize many projects that only a few moments can survive. And but the focus is to choose the best project, because there are so many projects that are deceptive.

There are only few IEO projects that ended up a scam, but IEO can be trusted and better than ICO projects because most ICO projects are not successful and scams. The only problem in IEO projects is their KYC policy and they have low value in their exchanges, that is why there are still few investors who participate in new projects nowadays.

IEOs are better than ICOs but exchange tokens like BNB and ecxx are the safest bet

but there are projects from IEO that don't grow when sales are listed on the market, so far I think it would be better to invest in old coins first until the market has supported the growth of new projects. but in terms of safety IEO is superior to ICO, so I think IEO is superior.

Honestly, since the introduction of IEO, the crypto industry is finally making a come back after its fall from the ICO's massive scam abused last 2018. Thankfully, they introduce this new method of investment in the crypto industry last year. It really helps a lot because of some legit CEOs, investors are having some good reason to stay in the crypto industry and can invite some new potential investors too.

With the introduction of IEO everything began to happen through the exchanges. This limited the scams happening through ICO, and people began to move towards IEO. At any instance we can't say one is better than the other, because now the scammers have begun to use IEO as a way to scam creating new exchanges that was never been into usage earlier.

IEO will be better than ICO if it is deployed at large exchanges, But if IEO is deployed at small and scam exchanges like Probit, vindex, p2pb2p ... then I think it will be much worse compared to ICO. I personally only care about Binance, Okex, Huobi's IEOs ... these are the best IEOs in this market and easily make us profitable, besides I never care about ICOs in 2019 to the present. 100% of those ICOs will die and never succeed

I agree with you! Many of these coins remain quiet even they are listed in this exchange. I believe that listing of ieo in a good exchange will determine its journey in developing the product. We need to cater the coins and project because if it is listed in lower and scam exchange definitely, it loses its value. It is much more worse than ICO. And I think that is happening right now.

EIO season never better than ICO season. EIO has been run in Bittrex exchange, just to know that bittrex is one of bigest exchange and the EIO not successfull the price of token lower price than EIO price. i never think about EIO better than ICO, EIO failed fully you can see the proof that investor not trust and do not want to invest on EIO anymore

As you said there is not much difference in IEO and ICO i am completely agree with that, ICO just evolve in IEO and making this a bit easy, i also think spammer just make the word ICO very bad so it is good to evolve into IEO

There's no much difference, but when you conduct IEO in a reputable exchange it means there are legit, especially in Binance as they are really doing their best for them to run IEO with those legit only and no scam, but in ICO, you cannot determine who are scam and not because scammers are also clever enough.

i think if ico will also be conducted by famous people  , it cant be also turn into scam because these famous personalities are going to get affected if they scam the investors  .  that is the same as putting an ieo on binance because binance are also afraid to get a complain whenever the ieo turns bad  . if that would be the basis , both ieo and ico are equal  but if that isnt the condition  , we should have choose properly and grade them depending on thier performance

Well, I think we can somehow avoid that. If we saw an IEO that is partnered with a new and suspicious exchange then I guess we shouldn't participate from it that is why before taking any move we should make a research about the project we are going to engage. Personally, I think IEO was somehow much better in ICOs simply because of the fact that it is already been partnered with exchanges so you won't need to wait for too long just to enlist the tokens you've got. The only thing I can think of why IEO does not become mainstream as ICOs have is because investors having a doubt that they will encounter the same thing what they had experience in ICO back in the day.

binance has good regulations for projects that want to be listed in their IEO. and until now it has managed to maintain the trust of traders and investors who are in the exchange. ICO is not bad, only those who do ICO must be able to convince the best way that can be done.
