What is the best section to announce an ICO?

[Secure Swap]

Hello,
I would like to post an announcement about a future ICO.
I have seen the "Announcements (Altcoins)" section, but my announcement is not about an Altcoin, but about a trading platform.
I have read the FAQs, helps and guides, I have not found the answer to this question.
What would be the appropriate section for this kind of announcement?
Thank you
Philippe

So long as it's an ICO - "Initial Coin Offering" it still falls under the same category of altcoins... I don't know much about your exchange but am pretty sure you will be offering investors coins/tokens in exchange for their BTCs or Ethers... Right?
This is more reason for it to fall under Altcoin Announcements because your coin or token will be an Altcoin

Service Announcements but since it was not live yet, I see it will be fit at Project Development section for the meantime.

Mine elaborating more? Since it's ICO, it should be on "Announcements (Altcoins)". You can post it already and let the community see the content and details.

After some clarification, you can moved the thread to the appropriate section.

Thanks a lot for helping.

Yes, indeed, there will be ERC20 tokens, so you're right, "Announcements (Altcoins)" makes total sense.
The "Service announcements" section also seems perfectly appropriate .
Well, I'll send it first to the "Project Development" section, and then to the "Service Announcements" section.
I prefer to highlight the service rather than the token which does not have a major role here.

Thank you very much!

Ah !!!
I just saw this:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2028417.0

Is it okay if I post directly on the "Service Announcements" section?  (it will be live tomorrow.. I hope )

I'm confused. You're planning on announcing an exchange.. with an ICO? It doesn't add up. If you're releasing an exchange with a token for some purpose, then probably post it on the Announcements (Altcoins)[1] as it still evolves an altcoin in the first place.

I've seen trading platform's being posted on Service Announcements (Altcoins).

If you are highlighting the service of your platform then I think it should be good there.

If the mod sees it posted there as wrong section, they will automatically move it to the right one base on their judgment.

Ok,
so it will be Service Announcements (Altcoins).
thank you very much for your help !!!!

I don't think so. Place for ICO announcement is  Announcements (Altcoins): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=159.0

Hello,
I would like to post an announcement about a future ICO.
...but my announcement is not about an Altcoin, but about a trading platform.

If this trading platform is running an ICO, which is Initial Coin Offerring, then that has to mean that it owns or would be run with a custom token or coin, and should be posted in Token (altcoins)
If it's a service announcement you can post in one of the suitable child boards under Marketplace (altcoins)

The best place for announcing an ico is the announcement section of the form and you also say it is a trading platform then it might go in the project development links to the two has already been post on reply of other member.  But how about checking https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=8.0 that is the trading discussion and I advice you Dont just post any announcement quickly just understand the discussion there

[Secure Swap]

It gets very confusing
I had no idea that this question would raise so many debates
I would just like to post where it won't bother anyone.
So it seems that the "Announcements (Altcoins)" section is the one most often mentioned in this thread, and also by seniors members, so I will post there.
And if I see any negative reactions, I'll move it.

how about checking https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=8.0

Onuohakk, I don't understand your remark. If this is about understanding what trading is and what traders are looking for, then ok, I understand perfectly. I am also a long-time trader. Did I miss something?

The best advice you would definitely get has already been giving I don't see what will confuse you just use the announcement section and you would receive attention if your project is not a scam

[Secure Swap]

just use the announcement section

Yes this is what I concluded just before. Thank you

if your project is not a scam

It's not.

Thank you all for your answers.
I am excited to submit this project and to get feedback from you all.

Service section is the best section for announce a ICO Because in this section there are lots of active members. They check this section every day. So I prefer this section for announce a ICO

OP, I see that you got mixed answers. And I'm not really sure where your topic belongs. Maybe try to ask moderators where you should post your topic, I'm sure they will give you the best answer. mprep and Welsh are responsible for Altcoin board:

It's an ERC20 token so it must go under Tokens (Altcoins)

You create an Ethereum asset. This asset is entirely reliant on Ethereum's block chain to function. It is a token.

Altcoins without a doubt, because you are creating an alternative currency.
