IEOs has certainly become the order of the day for new start up in cryptocurrency. replacing the traditional ICO which was a means of raising funds for new crypto projects. As we all Know, IEOs are been conducted on Exchanges which was a means to guaranteed investors that they have a platform to exchange( buy/sell) their token and as well a trust and accountabilty in the crypto ecosystem.
Currently there are Exchanges that are not deem FIT To conduct these exchanges because:
1: 90% of the projects the marketed failed to reach softcap.
2; most projects been marketed are still Scam and have nothing to offer.
3; they never review any of these project but rather charge fees for IEO listing.( once, you make your payment, you are allow to conduct your sales on their platform) a sure way of damaging their reputation.
4: they list multiple projects at once making it difficult for investors to make their own review and choose a quality project.

I know of LATOKEN exchange as Number one in this category.
Please drop yours if you have any.

There are many exchanges did that things such as p2pb2b, Idax, and vindax. Idax did not bother about your background and technology, as long as you pay their listing fee for 10BTC then you are fine and get ready to be listed on their exchange after the IEO. Just like p2pb2b and vindax but they do not ask you that much, as long as you can pay the fees. You will get a place on their platform and can do many phases of IEO on their platform.

what else?

All the exchanges do the same, most exchanges do not research about the project, you should focus on the project itself and not focus on the exchanges.
For example binance looking into the community of the project, whatever the project introduce.
Binance will choose the project with high community insted of high quality.
Note that exchanges focus on profit even binance.

It no more news that Latoken is very bad for IEO and I think the platform has really proven that they are just about making money from project dev but dont do in-depth background check on them. They have low active traders and most project always like to get listed there because it is more or less like a dumping ground for many altcoin. Similar to Latoken is another platform called DOBI trade. DOBI trade is famous for listing scam project e.g Bluenote token. They dont carry out listed token auditing and hardly will you see them delisting any useless token. Exmarket too is also similar to the other 2 discussed above.

i think you must stay away from IEO on ZBTCEX and ABEX exchange because the sales from them are from bot.
You can read all the details from this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5188498.0

Idax is definitely one.

They should be essentially be rendered a scam given the fact that there has been multiple accusations of them defrauding projects who want to list their tokens on their platform. They also charge absurd listing fees for the project itself, which means that even if somehow a project does raise funds, most of it will not be going to development.

But in general, you should avoid IEOs unless you can confirm the legitimacy of the project. People seem to blindly believe in them.

Lately these past months, many investors and traders have left altcoin trading because of the lack of trading volume. I wouldn't invest in any IEO at the moment because it will likely dump in the market.

Anyway, once altseason is back, the best and only exchange for IEOs you should consider is still Binance in spite of some controversies.

Exchange is a business so it won't be surprising that they won't conduct deeper review and filtering for the projects that wants to do an IEO with them. With those unpopular exchanges, it's an opportunity to them and it means that a project seeks their help especially if there's a potential huge sales that they can take as commission which depend on their terms. I don't have an idea on how much they charge but it's likely that there's a commission contract on their part.

There is nothing that makes IEO "spectacular". The only difference of IEO is that the sale is in the exchange. The main subject is that in which exchange is the sale, and depending on the reliability of the exchange, the continuation is obvious. But apart from exchange, the project is also important. Exchange is the tool for sale. There are good projects that do IEO in small exchange because they do not have enough money. Look not only the exchange to which the project's coin will be sold, but also the project.

An exchange should be more selective to accept an IEO project now
Because not all IEO project will be success, its depends with the project itself mate
And people you must do their deep research first, if they want to drop their money in IEO on any exchange
regards

well, thaats true
but look like people now smarter, because, as you can see a lot of IEO failed now
thats really a big sign if people now become more careful to put their money in a new project of cryptocurrency now
and only a good and solid project success right ?

Yes, I agree with your opinion, but IEO is still better than the ICO system because IEO will work with existing exchanges. But we must be able to choose which exchanges are of good and bad reputation, because that also determines whether the IEO project is good or bad.

I do agree with those mentioned exchanges. Those exchanges are blatantly doing the heavy manipulation of their trading market giving fake volumes to projects they want to create some hype. All that matters to them is money and not reputation. Though there are smaller exchanges that do the same strategy, but those are very well-known in the community to have such substandard services.

Today's scammers are smarter. with only a capital fee for listing IEO on the exchange will help scammers get more funds. Indeed, there must be a review in advance for projects that will be included in IEO. For LATOKEN, I don't know yet what IEO entry regulation mechanism is. But for large Exchange such as binance there will be a review and research whether the project is good and feasible to enter in IEO Binance. indeed to enter the IEO Binance fee needed is very expensive. But it is very effective with a higher percentage of success

Here's my list
Vindax, Exmarket, bitmax, coineal, and any IEO that runs on the small exchange and manipulated exchange site.
That will be so easy to say that if you should not follow the ico that runs on not a big exhange site because it lacks of the verification to the team and a high chance to be a scam project.

If the project is financially strong, the IEO at the top exchanges will be easy as they are willing to pay a large fee to bring better returns for them and the investor. I think only good projects can do this because they are projects that interest investors and are always updated with the latest news. For me, exchanges like Latoken, P2P, Exmarket are just junk exchanges and not worth your investment in IEO.

Now it's best to just join IEO at Binance because most of the projects here are of high value to make a profit.

While Yobit doesn't offer IEOs at the moment, they do offer ICOs and I'd still advise people to stay away from that exchange for reasons outside of what's being offered on their site. I've only ever seen negative reviews of the site around here, the site support does not seem to be extremely rapid or helpful, and a ton of coins would have their wallets be under maintenance for long periods of time back when I used them. Pretty sure Yobit also doesn't review projects and just asks for the very basic details of your project in order to list it on their site.

There are lots of exchange that doing monkey business and not LATOKEN alone. If I were you should focus on big exchange when it comes to investment on IEO, just pick binance, kucoin, gateio, huobi, and okex. These exchange produce good projects and legit IEOs. Other than this, you should take precaution.

Latoken and IDEx are some popular exchanges that were involved in fishy IEOs. There are many more exchanges some established with the sole purpose of issuing an ICO, so it would be really difficult to track IEO by exchanges. So, it again comes to sticking with some popular exchanges and going outside of the comfort zone only for the IEOs you trust in.
Again it's not that each and every IEO issued by binance would yield you a profit.

The most famous is IDAX, the most important according to them is profit, I don't really understand how they manage their management because of the increasingly low reputation. It's one of the places to get income and although almost all exchangers are like that, so I guess it's fine, I wonder why there is no selection and research information from tokens that will enter their platform. What about coin / token voting? some exchangers apply voting where the community must pay to get a place to vote, and the most get voting from the community then the coin / token get a place to sell their products.

And what about those that are launched in huge and popular exchanges, are they automatically better IEOs? To be fair, they are not. They are just richer. Does it automatically follow that since an IEO is launched in Bittrex or Binance, they will be successful and will give you a guaranteed positive return of your investments? No, of course not! There are different kinds of scam projects. There are those that are created by a poor team and there are those that are created by rich scam teams.

There is no question that ICO is dead and that IEO is the in thing and this can go on for the next few years unless a better way can be found. On this note, however, I still think that STO remains the best...STO that is doing an IEO. An IEO just means that the crowdfunding is done in the exchange and not done by the project alone but there is still no guarantee that the project can be successful or that it will not turn into another scam, fraud or failure down the road.

There should have been no illusion here though we are assuming that big and reputable exchanges are doing their job of screening the projects they are onboarding so that scams can be controlled as much as possible. Sadly, there are and will be less reputable exchanges who are just after the money. You pay them the required fees and then you are on the go introducing the IEO wherever and whenever you want. I think the bottomline here is always business and that is what all exchanges are looking for.

The big lessons here is seems that since you own the money, it is your big responsibility to make your own research on the project and should not expect a lot of help from the exchange and all decisions you are doing are all yours to face the consequences. I dread the time when many of these IEOs would also turn red.

I don't think it is fair to say that we should stay away from IEOS in the same way I think you shouldn't have to stay away from ICO. IEO does have the security of having the token actually listed and the exchanges reputation is at stake. THose exchanges like hte ones you mention that do not do background checks into the projects to make sure they are legit are just greedy and as long as you can pay anything goes. Also notice those are very new exchanges so it will probably be better to wait until older exchanges have run a few successful IEO before jumping in. I already know that the one's some users here posted about are no good like p2pb2b.

So what is your solution? Stay away from basically every tier 1 exchange aka Binance, Huobi, Okex etc.? That is silly, IEO is just the latest money-grab invention from Binance and wont be the last one. A lot of people were able to ride the high ROI wave via flipping and on the other hand, a lot of people got burned as well. And this will continue happening in the next "big thing". 

Now there are a lot of cryptocurrency exchanges where volume is fake and for example, I myself know that the most fakest volume are on such exchanges like vindax, latoken, p2pb2b, exmarkets, idax, it seems that at the very moment these are the most common scam exchanges and where most companies conduct their IEO and companies don’t collect anything by conducting their IEOs on these exchanges, but there are even more exchanges like this one I know, just not all tested.

All platforms except the major exchanges are the same. Binance, Kucoin, Bittrex, Huobi ... I don't think any of them are reliable enough. There was a lot of speculation in an IEO that Bittrex did for a time. So it's pointless to rely on just exchanging tokens.

There's usually 3 types of exchanges and how they IEO.

1. The fail type, where they are usually a smaller exchange that charges a very small fee and doesn't help at all, and all they do is list the project, but it eventually fails due to low traffic.

2. Pump type exchanges where they would keep a section of the IEO funds in order to perform market making, and usually they sell out due to this, think binance, BW, ZBV.

3. The regular ones that rarely happens but it's just an exchange helping an IEO but not performing market making, etc.

Another interesting thread guys. read up here and be save from scandelous exchanges that claims they understands the crypto project but goes around robbing people their hard earn money.

I never had a problem with LAtoken, as long as I transact in LAtoken there are no obstacles. Maybe many people are having problems so I often hear problem issue about LAtoken. If the reputation is not good enough, we really avoid it and prefer to invest in IEO held by large exchangers

The first exchange on my list is idax, developers who use this exchange or still wants to use them don't know what they are getting into, idax has the power to turn anything around, they have higher connections that even the law can't beat, new projects that avoid idax even after idax cheat them know what they are doing, they know idax has high rank people backing them up

Not only the LATOKEN Exchange experienced this, I don't want to make another exchange. But it is true, that small exchanges like LATOKEN sometimes fail a lot when doing IEO.

Precisely the 4th point, there are very many projects in the exchange. So that is really the wrong strategy to succeed the project. But LATOKEN also needs funds in this case, so that's why they do it.

In my own opinion just invest IEO's on a trusted exchange so that you can be sure of your funds safety, But always remember that investing in cryptocurrency is risky its like a gamble since you are only speculating on that particular coin/token that you bought from either IEO's or ICO's  after it was traded maybe you can earn out of it or lose.

the only point in IEOs have been to change then name so that they could attempt at reviving something that was dead. all they could ever do was to put some life in a dead body for a little while before it died again.
exchanges in this process made a ton of money by getting paid from the newbies who listed the tokens and the other newbies who bought the tokens and then traded them on their platform. so it was a win-win situation for the exchanges while the both newbies got screwed over ...

Should I consider this as a campaign against Latoken? Well, that is on a lighter mode. I am not also a fan to lakoken. Whenever I am involved in a project that mentions IEO on Latoken, let alone listing in on, I immediately disdain it. Also, I do not advocate conducting IEO on most of the new exvhnages in the space. First, they do not have the real volume and investors to be qualified for that. There are quite a number of old exchanges that are just conducting IEO for the first time and some that have not even conducted any IEO. So it now becomes surprising to me sometimes, seeing newly launched exhnages or exvhanges that have not been in space for a while and now launching IEO launchpad.

I have been watching two exchanges where IEO doesn't work:
- LEX exchange for sure have not enough volume to conduct IEO
- Liquid actually is not small, but IEOs made there have no good results


The difference between ICO and IEO is that exchange is verifying project credibility. It also confirms that after the token sale will be possible to trade.
Unfortunately, but it does not guarantee that the price will remain at its level. This is a free market and it is up to the developers whether the project succeeds and the price increases.
In my opinion, it doesn't matter that one exchange has a service for IEO and another doesn't.

There are many exchanges that are bad for listing IEO, idax exchange, latoken and p2pb2b exchange are the biggest crap exchanges that developers needs to stay away from, watch trade and fake volumes are present

I totally agree with you. Latoken's IEO is nothing than shit. Some good projects went there to conduct the IEO sale, they returned back as a shit project. I have no trust in Latoken's IEO raising bar. Besides Latoken, I don't like P2PB2B, VindaX, Coinlim, Exmarkets IEO launchpad. People should careful before investing in this exchange's IEO. I do only care about Gateio, Binance, Kucoin, Huobi, OkeX, Bittrex and some other reputed exchange's IEO!

we don't need to worry about this problem. investors and bounty hunters are also getting smart and don't have to worry about the choices chosen. investing in or joining an IEO exchange that isn't goodwill makes the project bad. as has happened in many projects so far, I have given important lessons for investors.

I think that exchanges do not conduct any research before conducting IEO on their exchange.

This does not apply to large exchanges such as Binance. Although the recent story with BTT makes me think about this exchange too

You should always check the project, read the whitepaper, do some due diligence on the developers, sure the exchange can or can not do its part....still, the single point of failure is always the projects so that's where we should point our focus. Some good projects with desperate devs could use one those shady exchanges, you shouldn't condemn a project for that.

I still trust Binance and Houbi IEOs because these are two big and reputable exchanges. The Latoken exchange did not receive my appreciation, their IEO was very bad and most failed.

I'm not a fan of LATOKEN since it has conducted IEO and listed many low standard projects, but this doesn't mean there are no cool IEOs conducted on that exchange. A good example of a dope project which did IEO on Latoken is ZEUX (ZUC hit hardcap within a short period of time).  As for me, I do not venture into any IEO done on any exchange with low reputation, even if the project has the highest hype. Some exchanges go as far as giving fake announcements that the IEO sold out even without hitting softcap, just to lure in investors after listing.  We all need to be careful on what and where we make investment.

the criteria for an unfavorable market in IEO might be quite a lot at the moment, but for now, I only believe in a few markets such as binance, kucoin, huobi and others in doing IEO. Well, maybe some markets that are not suitable for IEO are Latoken. Well, quite a lot of IEO was done there, but for now, there isn't much I know about successful projects. maybe many markets have these criteria. but I  think it's not ethical if we mention it.

now trust is not thought about by the exchange, but how to get profits from investors.
avoid exchanges that have a bad reputation for handling IEO such as idax, latoken, and exchanges that have fake trading volumes.

I can tell you the exchanges where successful IEOs are held, all exchanges outside this list can be classified as doubtful: Gate.io Binance, Bitfinex, Bittrex, OKEx, Huobi, Kicoin.
Be careful in choosing an exchange, read reviews before making a deposit.

About Latoken, for example, more than one page of reviews has been written on the forum.

Everyone says almost the same exchanges about their bad experiences about them for having an IEO. And there were some that said they've allowed an IEO scam in their platform if not, their IEO isn't like the management of known exchanges.

• IDAX
• IDEX
• Latoken
• Vindax
• P2PB2B

Well,i can only say of the exchanges I have been following,I know of Binance, KuCoin, gate.io .These are good exchanges for initial exchange offering. Most of the projects handled by them have been successful,but what I think we should also look at is the project in question, it's use case and the team backing it up, these also influences.

I think IEOs should be avoided irrespective of whatever exchange it is on. We have had enough of the shitcoins, no one really doing anything different. Let projects raise funds from venture capitalists if they really trust in their project.

End of the day each and everything is a business. Exchanges are developed as a way to profit big, and not to serve with legitimacy. Maybe there are few exchanges that take the processes associated with these IEO launch seriously and list it only if the requirements were met. It is our responsibility to analyze the truth and invest at the right time than just investing out of excitement and feeling bad.

Too bad the cryptocurrency exchanges are not taking IEOs issue seriously.

Here is my list of cryptocurrency Exchanges to be extremely careful when buying IEOs.

IDAX
P2PB2B
Vindax
FCoin
Exmarket
MXC
Bitmax
LBANK
Coineal
LATOKEN

Yes, Latoken is most of the IEO's projects launching exchange i have ever seen. But unfortunately it’s true that all of the projects will never be succeed i mean not raised in penny. Because worst projects team will go with Latoken because they just try to crate hype but ultimately they can't success. Yeah not only Latoken others a lot exchanges are launching many IEO projects. Still i didn’t get any single successful IEO in Latoken exchange it’s very interesting i think.                    

Probably not all of them have that kind of vision but we're sure that it's their utmost priority.
The problem of other investors, they lack of studying the projects that are running on unknown exchanges and once a problem starts to be visible, they won't realize that they won't be in that kind of situation if they took precautions from the beginning.

I dont think it is fair to paint all ieo exchanges with the same brush do you? Look at the individual exchanges instead. One exchange may conduct IEO very well while the next is terrible at it. It doesnt make the IEO bad only the exchange.

I for one look forward to the coming IEO and how well they will work.

There are many IEO projects listed on latoken, but i don't think those are good to invest, maybe only 1 or 2 are good.
I guess investors only prefer to joining IEO on top exchange like binance and other popular exchanges,
they are not very interested toward the new projects listed on small exchange.

This is the proof that IEO is still not a sure profit to investors because a lot of project are also failed during their publication. If you are going to invest, you'd better to choose the top exchange which has a good standard and a higher rate of success and that is Binance for me. Exchanges that conduct IEO are increasing, most of them are the small exchanges but its not guaranteed at all so stay careful.

Currently, only big exchanges can succeed in the IEO sector because they have large financial resources and there are many investors in the exchange so they are ready to create liquidity at any time for those who join IEO. I think before joining IEO, you need to study very carefully because recently some exchanges such as Latoken, P2P, Exmarket have a lot of IEO projects for investors to participate but the rate of making a profit is 0 % because no projects have been highly profitable.

In my opinion should only participate in a number of big exchanges such as Binance, Okex, Huobi, Kucoin, Gate because these are the exchanges that often have a lot of top projects.

Well if i were an investor, i would rather not invest on IEOs since most of the IEOs were done on shitty exchanges so, i rather invest it on altcoins than invest it in IEOs even though that there still good projects but i feel that it will not prosper i don't know anyway, i just don't like to invest on IEOs

but these are my exchange to stay away from.

1. LAtoken
2. Yobit due to pump and dump exchange

First thing to do is really analyze the projects purpose, if it will be in demand especially for future developments, it should have many rooms for development to get more supporters and investors that can pump the price. Even they are listed in top exchanges which we hope conducts a investigation or research in the teams and ask to provides necessary information just in case they plan to exit after successful funding we really need to study it so no blaming will happen from the exchanges vs ourselves. At this time success projects are so few that we really need to do our own checking to not waste our time and money in it.

We could say that the rate of successful project that conduct their token sale in big exchange is much higher than those who choose the small or unknown exchange but I think that a big exchange can't be the basis for a project to succeed because it's still rely on how the team will manage to market their coin and give more insights about their project acroos the crypto community. I said this because I've seen a lot of project that reach their goal even they conduct their IEO on small exchanges.

LATOKEN is definitely the king of shitty exchanges to conduct an IEO, they seem to list about 2 new IEOs on a daily basis. Another exchange you should be wary of when it comes to conducting IEOs is IDAX exchange, I am very disappointed with this exchange be ause it was one of my favourite exchanges at a time, but they seem to just start declining and went down fast. Third should be P2PB2B, it's not much better than the aforementioned exchanges too. Probit Exchange isn't too popular but they are also active in IEOs, the sheer amount of IEOs listed there is amazing.

There are a lot of exchanges like that. Any IEO conducted on such exchanges almost don't end up being successful. Few that I know is P2PB2P exchange. I can name couple of exchanges which conducted IEO on these exchange that ends up unsuccessful.

I have never faced obstacles when transacting using this exchanger but it seems that many people don't like LAtoken. For IEO, it is better to invest in IEO organized by large exchangers such as Binance or Huobi because it is more profitable

Agree, if we hesitate to invest in IEO organized by small exchangers, we should invest in altcoins that have been traded on large exchangers. With current market conditions, many good altcoins are cheap and are worthy of long-term investment

LAToken is a shit exchange that doesn't care about investors they only care about money, if there is a project that dares to pay for an IEO there, then they will be listed
IDAX is also the same as many projects that were once considered a scam could hold an IEO there and succeed in getting funds, but not traded
P2PB2B I do not know much about this exchange, but indeed this is a small exchange
Probit is a pretty good exchange in my opinion, every project that has held an IEO there is always traded even though the volume is not much but always stable

The exchange you should stay away from IEO may be a market that often receives an of whit in the days of the again ICO such as Hotbit, Mercatox, P2PB2B, FATBTC, Vindax, Coinsbit, etc.
Although IEO sales are bestselling, I am not sure of the same market because often the price is problematic when the ICO era rampant and accepts all shitcoins, which is important there is a cash advance for listings.

Latoken mostly offers its platform, as purely a platform. They don't help with sales, rarely change details and definitely don't do any extra marketing, unless you pay them a shit ton more.

It really depends on what you are looking for, if your purely greed-based, you can look at some of the pumped IEO's to profit off them, they are usually great for making money (exchange will literally set buy walls and a small part of the tokens will be bought back to pump the market.

In addition to Latoken, there are Exmarket, Coineal, Idax, Vindax, and especially Yobit.
These are exchanges that you should stay away from if they have an IEO because they don't care about those projects. They are just important that they benefit from implementing an IEO.
and now IEO is out of trend, we should only invest in IEO of big exchanges like binance or okex, huobi, bitmax or bitfinex.

For me it is all shit exchange in the field of IEO investment because most of the projects listed here do not bring any profits to investors and the loss rate will be very high otherwise careful . Any project listed at those exchanges is definitely a scam project and don't expect too much because it will only make you more frustrated. Many investors make a mistake when joining IEO here and they are feeling very regret when joining.

Exmarkets have their own poor IEOs as well as Coineal. But it is unfair to treat IEOs based on their exchange platforms. Judging IEOs should be an individual approach and not on the platform which is basically a third party. It does not follow, after all, that if certain IEOs are offered in Binance or Okex, they are automatically great projects that will certainly earn success. IEOs are different from each other even if they share the same platform.

For me personally, I stay away from all kinds of IEO in all exchanges even though it's the number 1 market though. Because if I look, the coins or tokens are not worth buying when IEO because it's just a HYPE not because the coins are good ideas or innovative. It is better for me to buy it when it enters the market and looks at its original price. We must protect our assets properly and correctly in order to avoid fatal losses.

It will be a waste of time and money if investing in market conditions like this. Many scam and fraud projects continue to emerge. Especially if they are listed on an exchange that is not concerned with the quality and purpose of the project and only sees the amount of money they will give. It's best to wait for the altseason to arrive and all prices for altcoin recovery to come back.

There are many investors who choose this way, buy coins that have been traded on exchangers rather than buying when the IEO period runs. One reason is that sometimes after the IEO period ends and tokens start listing on the exchanger, the price drops below the IEO price and this usually happens on the small exchanger

Idax and p2pb2b are on same category with latoken exchange, they give out fake volumes and watch trades as well, they don't bother to care if the project is crappy or not, if you can pay for the requested fee then you have a deal, only few top exchanges cares about what people are going to say if investors get scammed on their watch for example binance exchange

Yes indeed. Aside from being on a small exchange, I think even on a large exchange. When the hype is finished, the price will fall. This makes me no longer want to follow IEO.
Now I only glance at coins or tokens that have a long-term function. The point is that the coin has a consistent use in the digital world in particular and the real world in general. Like ETH where we can make tokens or Dapp under its aegis.

I don't really pay attention to p2pb2b and idax because until now there are still quite a lot of projects that do IEO there. but, for latoken, I think there are enough examples that I got when several projects did IEO there. not the intention to drop that exchanger, but if latoken doesn't improve the quality of the exchanger, I think people will avoid supporting the IEO project there.

The name of the exchange that many cases eventually many people mention. I have long seen that even though the IEO trend is widely used by some people to take advantage of creating fictitious projects and working with Exchange. Do you think the same as me? when IEO from Probit exchange. LA Token. Vindax. EXMarket. too many projects that have problems? the mechanism itself we do not know how the project can work together

any exchange that hosted an IEO out of nowhere despite being low profiled and also just recently made its debut to public is surely a money grabber and you should stay away from it. Furthermore if you find the marketing or the developers like forcing so much dreamy things shoving right into our eyes through their promotion you could be more aware to their project and raise your suspicion.This method is surely the best way to determine some project whether it will hold on or not because when in IEO phase you are not sure about what will happen. once the IEO phase ended and money has all gathered they will show you their true nature.

Even when there is the guarantee of the exchange, its still not the case since IEO scam involves the exchanges that means their are two parties scamming the investors instead. Bounty hunters that were trying to promote all the campaigns run for these IEO were also scammed in a way. The only projects that I see that were given the chance to be int he market were the tokens which are on EOS and TRX, they are not even doing ICO nor IEO.

My top list of Scam IEO exchange is P2PB2B exchange. This exchange is pure scam with their fake volume and wash trades. Don't ever invest on any IEO listed on this exchange.

The most appropriate step is to ignore IEO on shitexchange, choose a trusted global exchange with lots of evidence of success after holding IEO.  There are several options such as Binance, Huobi, Upbit, etc. However, it takes a lot of effort to fulfil the terms and conditions in order to join.  Naturally, there are always many interested people.  Whereas ieo on the exchange that is reliable, the risk is greater. :'(

my worst3:
P2PB2B and COINSBIT exchange from Ukrain with "love" (fake volume and wash trades). A lot of bad reviews.
vindax is very laggy and was hacked recently for 500k  
YOBIT - i remember one girl from a blockchain life 2019 conference, she gives me a red flyer with text "YoBit.net scam" ... so I heard some rummers about them)

Target of all exchanges is the profit, so that is way most of exchanges charge a lot of fees to just listing your project, due to they know your project may fail.

No, I disagree because you cannot generalize it, Binance is the most popular exchange and they are running and IEO from time to time.
So that's the statement that its wrong to generalized because Binance has been here long before IEO was introduced.

What you are stating here is based on a case to case basis.

now exchange is only concerned with its own profit, without first researching what IEO is marketed.
very few IEOs have succeeded because of the lack of understanding of the origin of the project.
for me, only reliable exchanges can invest in it, houbi, kucoin, and binance.

Vindax is the first one on the list of crap exchanges not good for IEO and i heard the exchange is been breached and over 400k worth of crypto stolen, is this true? the others are idax and p2pb2b, developers who want the best for their project should stay away from these exchanges

Many IEOs that are carried out on an exchange end with the success of the IEO, depending on the chosen Exchange. Large exchanges do not guarantee 100% IEO success, but at least there is hope and can immediately register on the exchange. For example Binance, IEO done in binance attracts many investors because the quality of binance as a large Exchange is no longer in doubt. Just how you determine it, whether you want to participate in IEO or not. At least participate in the Exchange that has been guaranteed compared to Exchange which is only a hotbed for scammers and is not yet clear for the future.

You do have to do research on IEO, even if it's on a large exchange because it doesn't guarantee profit. the most important thing is that the projects are not from the exchange, because they provide several advantages in the form of security. while the project inside I don't think has changed much like ICO

I read it on the internet that vindax was hacked, well i am not surprised because the exchange is not big, managed by small group and of course their security will be worse, one lesson learned here is never to leave coins on exchanges

The list of such exchanges are many and they have deceived many projects to believe that they can raise money for them. Some of those exchanges are Dobitrade, P2PB2B, Vindax, IDAX, Exmarkets and so many others. Though their IEO fees is not much but a project can't even raise $1000 usd from some of them.

Latoken has been around for a while now and yet IEO projects still gives bad results on the exchange, i think that not all exchanges are good for IEO fundraising, exchanges like BW and btcnia or even probit are still better than idax and latoken, i just don't understand how idax have a high rank among top exchanges, they have nothing butbfake volumes

I think there are currently many exchanges that do IEO. Almost all exchanges offer new projects, maybe more Latoken are used for IEO sales targets. Indeed, of the many IEO projects failed too. As you said, it doesn't reach softcap. This investor money can be returned.

Its due to the project that aren't really making a real promising development in the industry. I have participated to once project, it felt like I was already scammed that trading has yet postponed and my BTC were gone. Latoken, Exmarket and P2pB2B are the exchanges doing IEOs this year which most of the project were scam, if this is the case then they allowed the team to withdraw the funds, right?

There are many of this exchanges that do collect money from project in the bid to raise fund but at the end do not raise anything or raise little or no fund. Some of these exchanges are IDAX, P2PB2B, and Exmarket exchange. Project developers need to get off these exchanges as most times they do not raise anything but give false hope.

You are absolutely right and it feels good that people are much aware of these scammers! Latoken was a rapidly growing exchange, I traded regularly on Latoken in 2018! But from the beginning of 2019, Latoken started becoming a house of scam IEOs! People should stop investing and using these shit exchanges from today! Vindax, Exmarkets, Coinlim all are the same type! I though Probit is different and a better new exchange but ProBit too started following the Latoken's path, this exchange should be ignored!

I kept following the Bitwings project as they have a better idea and the team is mind-blowing active and they keep making events throughout the world! But when I saw that Bitwings is going to start their IEO on P2PB2B exchange, I opted out immediately. I don't know how a great project can choose these shit exchanges! I really agree with your every word, people should stay away from Latoken, P2PB2B, Shortex, Vindax exchanges! 

To me it makes more sense to wait untill an exchange has become established and build a good reputation for itself. Then things will be much smoother. The problem is that it may take some time before it gets to that stage and if you are interested in a project before that time it might be riskier. I would still wait for the tokens or coins to release on the market and then buy them from there. No KYC either. Though should not be giving it anyway.

Yes IEO is the order of the day and so far or to an extent has proven to be better than ICO but however one needs to be responsible for the IEO he participates with. From the look of things, IEO on top exchanges are always good at least no unnecessary issues but that doesn't mean that any IEO listed on them are worth it, that is to say, due diligence is needed at all times.. lastly about the exchanges which are bad in terms of IEO, I think P2PB2B should be the first, I wonder if that is an exchange or what; after it should be followed by Latoken, IEO on these exchanges are nothing to write home about.

To see that there are a lot of exchanges offering an IEO is good for the market, however, we also know that not all of them are reputable and therefore its expected that some would not be able to generate the funds they are expecting.

As the market is very unstable, people are looking for a more reliable exchange so they choose those exchanges that are not manipulating their trading volume, such us Binance and other big exchanges with real volume, LA Token seems to an exchange that are not telling its real trading volume IMO.
