Why IEOs Came Into Existence?

[jojohamasa]

Have you ever thought of this before?

When I first heard of IEOs from smaller exchanges, I thought they were simply catering to one of the demands of ICO investors which is immediate exchange listing.

Then came the bigger centralized exchanges like Binance, Bittrex, and Kucoin. It somehow made me wonder why would they open up their platform to crowdfunding. Maybe because they also think that the ICO market is dying? If so, then that would mean less new projects. With less new projects, less potential source of income (listing fees). 

So in the end, it is still all about the $$$. These exchange are probably afraid of losing one of their major source of income 


What's your take on this?

This seems to be a normal development after ICO failure
the emergence of new projects worthy of support has led to the emergence of a new financing tool
IEO is a challenge for new projects and platforms organized by
let's follow and watch Will you succeed?

I do not think that something sensible will come of it. IEO dictate their terms, it just destroys the meaning of cryptocurrency. The exchanges centralize all management in one place, create terrible conditions.

I think ieo appeared due to the fact that the ico is a lot of scams , and the market was waiting for when there will be good projects and most importantly reliable

[Fammosh82]

One thing to note is that, the benefits of an IEO is to ensure Projects can be assured of a more legitimized token sale as they have the official backing of an exchange who determines that they have done their due diligence on the integrity of the project. Projects also have their tokens exposed, particularly in the case of Binance, to vast audiences of investors who are eager for new opportunities to profit. The near-immediate sell-out of BitTorrent and Fetch.AI are indicative of this advantage for projects.

[CryptoKush]

I partially agree with you. But I think that the IEO attracts new users to the exchange. Also, the IEO has a positive effect on the price of exchange tokens. Therefore, I think that the IEO is very beneficial for exchanges.

[dobolspeed3]

Reasonable reasons might be that investment in ICO is certainly no longer profitable. And plus investors who invest in the IEO might benefit greatly. Therefore IEO is getting more and more days. And this will be a threat to the ICO. Because lack of investor confidence in the ICO certainly makes the IEO more attractive.

[Backupnime]

investing in IEO is much better and profitable than i'm investing my money in conventional ico like now, especially IEO from big exchange chance to pump and make profit are bigger and profitable than participate in conventional ico withut any protection for user and guarante the price after listing are same from ico price

[fasdorcas]

Because many investors were scammed millions of dollars by fraud ICO in the past.
IEO is one of the solution to preventing fraud projects by holding it on a legit exchange platform.

That is right, and I think that they have not deviated from that objective but is there any real assurance of an IEO Platform guaranteeing that a project listed on its platform will not get dumped and eventually crash after being listed?

I have always believe this about IEO, I believe there is no way scammer can penetrate, but scamming is not the only challenge that we face in ICO, what is the difference between a scammer disappearing with one’s fund and a coin that turns shit with zero value when it gets dumped. So this is what I am still not clear about concerning IEO.

[sabine80]

an ieo should bring back the trust of the investors. it also ensures that the project is actually traded on a exchange. some ico token did not make it to any exchange. in addition, the exchange wins new users and earns by fees. so it is good for all sides. i really hope no scam project ever creates an ieo. that would deter the investors again and destroy the trust in ieo.

[Kingairdrop]

I think i also buy the idea of ICO dying and big centralize exchanges are in fear of loosing their source of money which is listing fees as stated above by the OP. But i also think that one of the major reason for IEOs is to tackle the flaws of ICOs and to limit scam projects in the market.

They answer the problem of scams in ICO, the IEO brings the reputation of the exchange also, if the IEO were conducted by Binance or other big exchanges, people would trust and Binance would make sure it's a legit team that are managing the project as their reputation is also at stake.

What's your take on this?

Yeah, i have thought this question because IEO is very popular recently.
I think IEO exist because many investors have not satisfied about the existing ICO.
Many projects were fraud, not according the road map, etc.

[zidanw]

The answer is direct; which is to reduce scams and save investors from running into unwarranted losses. Exchanges won't be happy if their investors gets scammed and to ensure this, they will take appropriate actions to verify upcoming projects.

Is the IEO the solution?

I think this is indeed a lot of people say right. but the IEO itself has a lot of things to improve about transparency which I think are still lacking. sales that are in seconds and also about their review reviews. it could be just a pump game and when it's done nobody cares. The reputation of the exchange does make IEO sales more interested. Later we will witness how this iso trend will also be an attraction for Scammers !.

[Amalker]

IEO trend 2019 was launched by CZ and their BTT crowdsale. After that other less popular exchange joining this trend, starting their own launchpads and exchange tokens. And yes, all this about money and IEO model is profitable for both sides - exchanges sell they tokens and increase trade volume and projects raised money for further development.

well, maybe you are right,
but, the investors also get benefits from this IEO
because, as far i know, even a succesful ICO project will not always being listed on any exchange after the crowdsale finish, investors must wait for some period time,,
but, if the project do an IEO, after the IEO ended, the project will automatically tradeable on the exchange my friend

[andrearz]

I don't know why they are existence, but it's a pretty popular direction now. This way exchanges strengthen the credibility of their coin too. For example, as did the exchange Binance.

The IEO is only in demand if it is done by a large market such as Binance, but if the small IEO market is the same as the ICO, it will take more than 1 month to complete because investors lack interest.

IEO has changed the trend of investment in the past of investors. Many investors think that through project exchanges it is possible to reach more investors and easily complete the capital call in a short time. Especially after the end of the IEO tokens are listed directly on the exchange support so they can sell them immediately after being listed.

[ridha inoue]

IEO is booming now because ICO fully of scam and fraud.
now IEO grow and inestor start away from ICO and looking for IEO.
the problem here is not why IEO grow but why ICO so bad and full of scam and fraud.
we need to stop scammers on ICO, we need to get ICO back like before.

[Callanta787]

I don't have to think hard to know why these exchanges allow crowdfunding, the answer is know to everyone, IEO is the perfect solution to crowdfunding and it works with no issues at all, new money are flowing into crypto space and that's all that matters to take crypto to higher level

This is a comical but true angle to it all... The IEO mechanism has probably made it easier for these exchanges to list new coins..Asides from IEOs am yet to see binance list a coin on their platforms.. Guess they must be making much more from IEOs than normal listing of coins..

[BCTS]

I believe that IEO is much safer than ICO. When an exchange conducts an IEO on its platform, it carries reputational risks, so it is likely that projects undergo a thorough analysis before being added to the exchange. As a result, investors save time, and the project receives funds for development and listing on the stock exchange in the shortest possible time.
