Are IEO's bad?

Your understand is right and we should not miss understood it.  Formally ico now IEO.  It is the same projects but different ways of raising fund!  However since it is exchange that is now in charge of funds raising you can easily dispose the coins that you feel are not going to appreciate in future.

With all y the recent activities going on with all the previous IEO after listing on an exchange,  I can say in my own opinion that IEO is pretty bad,  I'm talking from experience I know some IEO that had dumped because I trust the platform that they were launched on

Yes, as you said, IEO is not good enough in this case because it is still not strong enough, I heard a lot from people before that IEO is better than ICO but in my opinion it is not much more different. It all depends on us in developing coins because we know all that is easy.

Hello everyone, very often they talk about it, someone heard about this project called GEXAN, said that their tokens would be at a good price?

[monineklutak]

I admit that the IEO is good because the IEO collects funds after their projects are running and honestly it is more convincing because I don't think they will commit fraud because if they do then their project will be destroyed and their exchangers will be at stake, therefore it is very important to I only chose the IEO which was held by a large exchanger because they certainly would not dare to commit fraud, while without doing so they were actually able to get money from their exchangers but even so I somehow preferred ICO because the concepts promoted by ICO can vary and I know that there are many concepts that I think are better and will be more hype than making exchangers

I registered with them in the bounty of the company, in the hope that in time I can sell at a good price on the stock exchange, there should be prospects, but much depends on advertising.

Thank you, I took the information, but it's just a lottery, i don’t really believe in that, there are very few projects that live to the very end. But I will consider and try to figure it out.

An IEO hosted by Yobit or Binance can clearly not be compared. In other words, the exchange gives more credibility to the project regardless of whether it's worth it or not.

Ooh boy!!...thanks for so real buddy. This is one fact that many don't want ti accept. Let's take Binance IEOs for example. A then-to-now retrospective study on these four or so IEOs conducted will show how "worthless/useless" those projects have become. So the bottom line is that te exchange names are giving undue credit to some of the IEOs but U believe change shall come and we may see better ones some day.

I do not think that many depends on advertising , the project needs a good team and a working product , and for them everything will be done by the exchange to which it goes ieo

[franciscoDC]

No its not bad because this is the way of one company/project to take and get a high funds from their IEO this is the new strategy now of many project and exchanger they are collaboration to gain big funds and absolutely this was getting successful now.

Am I the only one who thinks this is actually a bad thing and make people focus on the exchange hosting rather than the actual project and what the team is offering etc.?

No they are not bad. It is a good step in the right direction. Despite the fact they are taken advantage of by exchanges, and not entirely foolproof, yet it still solves the intrinsic problems of cryptocurrency volatility contributed by fraud from project developers.

Your point is a very vital one, yes we know that IEO project are secured and so on, but there is no guarantee that IEO projects are solid even if they look solid to the exchanges, most of these projects they bring our are all on trial, because they have not engaged in it before, and if they don’t know how to manage the project very well as a starter, they will definitely fail, no matter which platform they come with, whether it is IEO, IPO, STO or ICO.

So like you pointed out, we still need to Do our own research and not completely rely on these IEO because the platform is also been created by Man that is not perfect in all things.

All great IEOs are on top exchanges. As u know tokens are listed after the IEO is over, thereby if the exchange is popular, then success is guaranteed.

IEO is pretty similar to ICO. But with IEO you can trade right away, and this makes it more flexible

Not only that, with IEO we have the exchange to verify the legitimacy of the project and the team behind it, which makes it more secured compared to ICO.

[kynaz]

Not all IEOs are bad, you just need to make sure to do research and don't go invest in IEOs on shady exchanges.

I think if you go with Binance IEOs you're on the safe side.

Most IEO projects in Binance exchanges are very profitable and everyone wants to be the luckiest person to participate in that project. I think the IEO contributes to the development of this market because it is the best money-making investment channel and you will become rich if you can participate in those potential projects. In addition to Binance, OKEX and HUOBI are also 2 exchanges that you need to consult when participating in IEO investment

[corrado25]

IEO is not a good idea to raise funds like ICO. ICO is a more open platform where you can get acquainted with the product that they offer and decide to invest money or not to get more profit. IEO is actually buying a cat in a bag and here I find less chance that you will make a profit. I participated in one IEO but not successful because he started the pump a week after entering the stock exchange and I did not wait to wait a week and sold after 2 days

[Melo20]

While the Initial Exchange Offering may appeal to those who are looking to capitalize on the recent success of others who have undertaken them, it is not the best solution for certain companies looking to raise funds. Researching fully the nature of IEO’s before undertaking one or before participating in one is key for both the sellers and the buyers.

I did not know that, but surely when you buy IEO, then there is a freeze on the selling until a certain time? Otherwise if you buy it and then immediately sell it will that not cause the dump of price instantly?

And about verification of legitimacy, yes,,, but if the exchange does a bad job of it, kind of like how Bittrex messed up their first IEO, then you end up with the same result of an IEO that actually had no plan to do anything with their project.

[Chika08]

Not entirely bad although some projects may make the IEO look bad. As far as I am concerned,  not all exchange should hold an IEO but many of them are holding the IEO making IEO look kinda bad

It's true actually, because of the exchange hosting, people and investors invest their money and it's not because of the project. Not all of them but i'm sure hosted by big exchange such binance is give a big impact. To be honest it's bad but i hope there is no bad or negative news about IEO.

I agree
but now the IEO is a better option than investing in ico, I think if large exchanges have a difficult mechanism to be able to do the IEO, and different from small exchanges, especially those that are not credible.
and this will have pros and cons between those who agree or not.
I can only try to analyze it and at the moment there is still nothing bad happening.
