the new model of fundrising is IEO

[imstillthebest]

Scammers will always find ways to get money from innocent's pocket, therefore IEO is not enough for security unless the strict to a rule for proper audit including team members and project idea. Not only that, the fund should be a lock for over a year, and only be spendable for development purpose with the proper audit. That way IEO might be useful.
I see another issue, scammers creating new exchange itself and opening IEO Therefore its bullshit.

Scaming on ieo's is i think more worster than ico's because people can lost heir fund inside an exchange and they also lost their fund from investing in ieo projects  if ever the ieo that they have joined is scam  .  scammers are smart , they can create an exchange and fill that exchange with fake volumes   and fake trades    . this why we still need to choose trusted ieos that came from trusted exchanges   .  dont invest on newer one with new exchange until they dont get any reputation  .

I think that the IEO will be popular this year. IEO create a lot of activity among speculators. The popularity of an IEO will depend on how good projects appear and how much they can make a profit.

The popularity of exchange site give a lot of contributions to the popularity of IEO itself. Look at how many exchange sites are creating their own IEO but there are only some of them get the best result from their IEO. Basically, exchange site's popularity is the main important thing that needs to be considered first.

People are still focused on whether tokens will be listed on exchanges and not asking if a token has an actual use case. Who cares how many exchanges a token is listed on if it has no use? In the end, investors will get burned. To me, it doesn't matter whether an offering is called an ICO, IEO, or STO - the question will always be is there a use case?

As from my point of view, this is a great model that is becoming more and more popular. However, what I see is that nowadays there are still many great projects with advanced and technological ideas that show great results and that are valuable. For example, Mindsync, anyone heard of them? Also curious to hear your thoughts on that

from the summer it was obvious that ICO dies and soon there will be a direct purchase from exchanges.
I see this is a good thing, as ICOs that makes IEO guaranteed will have a listing at an exchange. We (investors) need it

IEO will give  us more certainity we could sell it if we need money to invest in another projects.different with ICO , we need wait more time till token listed in market , maybe it could take time more than one month after ico finish.

Multivac the ieo on kucoin has seen alright outcome so far
https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/multivac same for https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bilaxy-token on bilaxy
Both are recent

It seems that IEO is going to be very popular now, i think it is much faster then ICO, but the question is - is it safer? Not sure. For me it is some sort of gambling. As usually nobody can guarantee any profits.

[chocopapaya]

Actually, IEOs have been around for a long time.
Binance, for example, has had them from the beginning.
So its nothing new.

Honestly, I see IEOs as only a tiny improvement.
In the end, a bear market is a bear market and if there's no new money coming in, and low trade volume, then IEOs won't change much.

Also, you need to really question the logic of a company that tries to start a new business in these conditions.
Especially if that project is similar to already existing projects.
Smart developers and ceos would launch at more opportune times.
A new business being hasty is never a good sign.

for convenience I think it is more comfortable than the ICO, but in terms of security or protection it all depends on the exchange that holds the IEO. where now the popular one is probably only done by the Binance exchange. and now another exchange starts doing it. but on a system basis I think the IEO is indeed more comfortable and faster.

[luthvie]

maybe IEO system can be the best option due to many scam ICO project nowadays, but personally i think IEO still not save because not transparancy of their fund raised.

[alexsandria]

Every things have merits and demerits too. In my personal sense IEO is relatively safer than ICO because here you don't need to bother about many things like project legality, team, exchange listing. But one thing is unfamiliar for IEO in recent times which is new investors are getting lower chances to buy due to a big number of investors on existing exchange.

That is because, we are now pertaining to a project backed up already by an existing project that has established reputation in the market. Through that, the risk that investors will going to take will be lessened as it was already handled by exchanges such as binance, bittrex, and etc. In fact, even I don't start investing on IEO's I have a good feeling that it will going to be effective. Sooner or later I might try.

[trauchot]

IEO is now spreading very quickly throughout the entire cryptocurrency sphere, and many companies prefer to choose IEO between ICO and STO, and how we see that many companies make the right choice and become successful with IEO.

[shesheboy]

ieo maybe safer than ico's because we can easily choose on who is legit and who is not but the chance of loosing is still be there because every investment is risky . ieo owners can dump thier project same as what he had on crypto but the chance of earning is also high because ieo's are slowly getting momentum  .

from the summer it was obvious that ICO dies

no they didnt  . ico didnt totally die because if we can see there are still ico bounties on this forum and on other websites as well   . ico will even more try harder to be able to attract investors because they are now threatened  by a ieo's  .

[Babayan]

I also believe in IEO, and think that today ICO should have an ieo to be a successful token sale and for better price later.

[Samboo]

With ICO getting less popularity due to lack of investment security, IEO is taking over. Its history is just the beginning, it has got much popularity. And it is happening for a good cause I think. It has many good features which are attracting investors. One of the main concerns of investors is investment security. IEO to its maximum level gives investment security and ensures listing of projects on exchanges.

[entebah]

Yes, I am fed up with ICO now, almost all of them have not succeeded in the exchange market, they dropped the price so deeply that my capital did not return from the ICO project. I hope the IEO is a big success from the ICO.

ICO was success in the previous years because it was a new "thing" and it offers investors to invest in a start up company without too much paper work involve, But this also opens doors to serial scammers that creates a bad image for ICO market

[fallensky7]

You are right, the emergence of many false projects, fraud, led to the fact that the ICO is dying, investors losing money have lost confidence. And it is replaced by IEO and STO. This is a natural result of evolution.IEO is more attractive to investors, as the marketplace puts its reputation on the line, and thus increases investor confidence in the project.

[r32godzilla]

It is not about the form, no matter if it is ICO, IEO or STO. People lose their patient and they are not more interested in investing in something what only promises without delivering the real solution. So many scams made this industry dead.
