Are ICO's Dead?

[desticy]

Icos are nt dead they are being replaced by IEO where Ieo are playing the same role of ICOS . what are flaws are there in ICO and covered in IEO

Nevertheless, the old model called ICO can be called dead, or close to death. Although many people think that this is a period of hibernation, and under certain conditions, the ICO will be reborn. I doubt it.

ICO is being replace now by IEO or having a third party which is exchange.
This idea might get more investors again as many were scammed with ICO last 2018 up to now.
I thought everything will turn well and will give more shine in the coomunity of token sales.

BUT NOW IDAX is on BIG problem with SCAM!

IS IEO safe? or we should go back to ICO?

[flemmings02]

ICOs are alive, it is only very to find legitimate ICOs recently and also legitimate ICOs have been unable to raise the required fund to proceed with their projects because of the bearish market that happened in the middle of last year.

They should be dead.

yes, there are still a lot of ICOs running and in my opinion not a few are quite successful but when compared to the number of ICOs that fail, now ICOs that survive are very small.
but even so, ICO is still not dead.

I think ICO is not very attractive at this time for investors who usually prefer the IEO rather than the ICO, because by being an IEO participant it will be faster to enter the exchange place and the token offered can be directly used for trading, unlike the ICO who is still waiting a long time and make investors bored.

I don't think so, the fact is there are still many ico appearing on this forum, if you think ico is dead that means investors are also included. I mean, ico also needs funds from investors, while investors also need ico, so they both need each other. on the other hand IEO / STO is currently favored by investors for several reasons.

ICO is not dead but most people are now turning to the IEO, they are already very bored with the ICO situation which always spends money such as decreasing prices or losing money because of being taken

[romaleshc]

We still cannot say if Initial Coin Offerings (ICO's) are dead because as long are there are new Alternate Cryptocurrencies being developed, it must still undergo ICO's. Its a critical stage of their promotion and a stage where they may know whether the platform they are creating will be used in the long run. They just need a good promotion for their ICO's to make people believe that they will not get scammed.

In fact there are still many ICOs that are successful, it may be more difficult because it competes with the IEO but I am sure that ICO that is designed well and attractively will be easily accepted by investors and markets.

Altcoin still exits, I think ICO will never die!. At this time when the cryptocurrency market is growing of the price, there are some potential ICO project will launch to attract the investor and member to do bounty task. At the future, ICO will be the part of this market in high-potential altcoin processing.

6 months after, Elrond is having its IEO on one of the biggest cryptocurrency exchange. It's really applaudable seeing how optimistic you were about the project during the crypto market turmoil.

I think as long as new projects continue to be created, the ICO or IEO will continue to exist. Maybe now many people choose the IEO, but there will be times when there is a new system that makes it easier for investors to invest in good projects. I think ICO and IEO can run simultaneously

I agree, ICO will still exist because some projects don't want the IEO on a small exchanger and only want the IEO on some large exchangers. ICO still has a big opportunity if the project promises investors and I think the developer team must prepare good marketing

[pana72]

Data show us that ICO's are dying. The total fund raised by ICO drastically decreased in this year and people are getting tired of fake, scam projects. ICO isn't a good way of fundraising anymore. Instead, blockchain startups have to prove their technology and vision in the way of traditional startup did before. They have to make Demo and do the pitching to the investors. I think this is the maturing process.

Many ICOs are still running and may succeed in achieving the softcap target. Indeed, currently the IEO / STO is a favorite after many ICO problems last year but I think the ICO, IEO and STO can walk together and reach their respective targets

[kalstarzz]

I see that currently ICO has less appeal to investors, this is likely due to too many scammers, besides that I see investor attention focused more on the IEO. if we see this phenomenon the possibility of ICO does not have a long life.

[hung58bitcoin]

I think that is probably true. Investors now invest in IEO projects on large exchange like Binance, Huobi, Okex, etc. Because of the disadvantages of ICO projects, it is a time for a long time to raise capital  and list on the exchanges. There is an ICO project I know that takes 1 year to list  on the exchange. The advantage of the IEO model is that projects are immediately listed on the exchanges and bring huge profits to investors. The most recent example is the ONE project that listed on Binance which brought in 10 times the profit for investors buying at the price of IEO.

ICO's are really not dead but alive, reason being that most ICO projects needs funds, time and process to come out successfully, without these 3 fundamentals,most ICO's are seen dead but in reality they are alive. Time happens to everything at every point in life and I believe ICO's will rise well when they meet the 3 fundamentals.

[XCANA]

Today ico don't raise money because now after crowdsale the price of the coin goes down very much

The more reasons why most ICOs failed woefully is their illicit act of collecting investors money and after the end of the ICOs, then the price drop without any reasons for the course. They actually scammed investors and have come to eat their own deed. IEO is now onboard.

ICO is not dead.
However, some are failed and some are cams. We, as investors or other participants, must be aware of those two risks. That is why being careful, smarter, and also deep analysis must be owned. We must know which ICOs are legit and which are not.

[Iykecollins]

Funny enough ICO's are not dead, just that it is increasingly becoming unpopular these days against IEO's, as a matter of fact I just witnessed a particular project that has just concluded its sale and yes, they achieved hardcap. I hope they change the trend and make people trust in ICO's once more
