BEWARE OF IEO

[Noruka]

IEO is another gimmick for fundraising and now the exchanges want to make the big money. You can play the hype but beyond that, don't know. Will just end up like ICOs one day.

High risk high reward. I have seen people those who bought in IEO and they have got their profit. That's the main purpose of them and us in crypto market. For me, I don't fomo to buy when listing

honestly , i dont think the IEO is a high risk category, for now.
because i just think the exchanges have specified rules,i guess to avoid price being dump.
its important i think for make the exchange most trustworthy
and the next IEO will get more enthusiasm

In my opinion, IEO is better than ICO. It is backup with big exchanges which s good coz you'll avoid being scam. You can get a good profit from it just don't be greedy. But i don't think tokens from IEO are good for long hold. I participated on 2 IEO's and got profit from it.

Thanks for the candid advise OP, in as much as we all believe in IEO as a savior for investors, I have also come to realize that these investors we claim to be protecting are not even able to have access to the token as they get locked out by these “sold out in seconds” system they are using to deceive us and even if you eventually succeed in participating, they impose a minimum amount of token you can buy which is also not quite small, no matter how little the price may seems.

It automatically imply that the system was created simply created for the whales to have fun. Until I see an IEO exchange placing maximum order on their project and removing the minimum order shit that is too expensive to even buy before I can pay attention to them.

The most dangerous thing in life is not to be able to see ahead of time,if you can't see ahead of time,you will always be cut up in the mist.So many are tired of ICO,as a matter of fact, ICO is almost dead,then came IEO presenting itself as a saviour of those investors that have suffered as a result of ICO,looking so tempting because some big exchange are backing it up,but i tell you,it can be more dangerous than ICO if you are not smart enough,atleast in the case of ICO,if price dump,it will dump on everyone,meaning there were some level of transparency,but for IEO especially with the big exchanges,the only thing we get to hear is that,it was sold out in seconds thereby creating an atmosphere that will make everyone to be looking forward to buy the moment it hit exchange,and the selected set of whales (hmmmm),who are already holding on to the coins are also ready to dump on people at a ridiculous price at exchange,after dumping it on people,then come a dump in price because the coin itself does not worth the price in the first instance,but because so much hype has been created in order to enrich themselves.I hope someone will wake up and not be cut up in the pool of loss.
   My candid advice,if you can't get it at IEO,don't be fool to buy at a ridiculous price the moment is listed. The rich are getting richer,don't be trapped.All the best.

ICO will eventually prove to be the best way to fund  crypto projects. It just needs to be improved to make things harder for scammers and prevent substandard projects from getting funded. I do not think it should be replaced with alternatives that are not transparent, permissionless, have little accountbility, no communty and are centralized.

IEO is a trending word nowadays. Because after a long time investors saw a good option to make profits! Every BTT investor made a huge profit but only a very few people could buy the coin from the Binance launchpad! I agree with you that we shouldn't buy IEO coins from the exchange, only buying from the IEO sale can give a good profit. But still, some potential coin can give you good money even after the exchange listing!

I guess too, IEO is just another term for ICO just so happen that it will occur on exchange. Nonetheless, the process is the same as ICO. Concluding that in the future days IEO will just become another version of ICO, full of frauds full of scams fueled by greedy investors.

[mersal]

It is also happening in today situation will be a trend now so the possibility of getting scam everytime will also been available in this market so the situation of ICO will also been probably happening for IEO right now everything you need to control under your experience with intelligence then when you can survive with the profit every time.

[marks1976]

A word is enough for the wise they say
If anyone feels they can handle the profits and loss margin involved in purchase of ieo tokens after crowdfunding
Then it’s a personal decision to be accomplished without Remorse

None the less, always dyor

I will try to avoid to purchase IEO token after it has already traded, it's too risky but this is a personal risk that anybody wanna buy that must deal with it. We must see that about how the price of FET was getting a big decrease and that should be the main reason.

yes in recent times it will be more popular about the mind set of people find it will giving the drawing for everyone who are trusting it but we cannot say it will completely happened in every time we need to be aware everything it will be the right idea about the investors and you need to be careful like we are not taking care about the ICO investment but this time I need to be more aware

[Onika84]

IEO is one of the answers that are often asked by investors; "when exchange?" Now, IEO is more popular and this trend may last longer than the general method.

I agree with this. When doing IEO the exchange where the project landed gets an instant exchange. It's easy as that. There were a lot of questions from bounty hunters and investors asking when they can see to exchange their invested/payment tokens.

[thesmallgod]

I see some truth about some of the statement you have mentioned above. In fact IEO is one of the smartest way now that many project are using to offer sales. Well it is true that having backup from exchange does not mean the token will not get dumped. exchange platform like Latoken that offer such features is one of the worst I have experienced. 99% of token listed on the platform get dumped massively. I am still monitoring Asobi coin as well. maybe much of the reason why exchange listing is being delayed.

[xclusiveguy]

IEO being the latest trends now, definitely scammers are gonna hijack it,  so it's better to just be aware for now and know the kind of IEO that one will invest in so as not to fall a victim

[bitgolden]

Who would buy an IEO project that already hits 10x in price? If this is your point when it's same thing for ICO too so its not something new entirely ,I support IEO more than ICO sorry

I don’t get you, kindly read his write up all over again, he never for once advised you to buy an any IEO that is already high in price, in fact he typically frowned against it and that is why he said IEO projects may be pumped and dumped later which is right, so his advice is not to rush into buying the High price we see but wait till things unfold and clear before we can make any move.

IEO project are gaining massive increase the instant they hit exchange because of the rush in it, a time will come that once the rush has died down, massive dumping by the investors within that short period too is very likely to occur because of the high profit they would have gotten, so best to buy after dumping has occurred,

[biznes35]

A lot of hype around IEO lately. I would treat this trading system with suspicion. We all remember 2017 and the prices at the peak of bullrun. It smells the same.

[cahbagus555]

I think IEO as much a scam as ICO! It's not normal for a crowd to buy coins thoughtlessly!

I think its different between IEO and ICO. IEO held by exchanger and its guarantee will listed in that exchanger after token sale ended. But for ICO, many ICO last year still not listed in exchanger. IEO can be scam if the exchanger is a scam and i think its much better participating IEO in big and reputable exchanger

[CryptoLing]

It depends how you see a scam coin. Many ICO was scam because they took your money and the coin is never tradable on any exchange and thus, you lost your money. IEO, however, has a partnership with an exchange that will listed that new coin so you can trade your money.

My personal view is, never buy into the coin that is overhype and has bullshit vision.

[miklesm]

IEO format of fundraising is really good as the best exchanges choose only worthy projects, so investors will not invest in scams. Unfortunately, the only interest of the most people is to get fast profit on IEO which is bad for the project.
