My understanding for IEOs is basically instead of project handling raising funds etc. It will be for an exchange to do so.

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.

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.?

Your question is very good and there are really a lot of speculators looking at exchanges, not analysis of the project. This is a general situation and that is why IEO projects have recently been bought by many investors but the value still goes down and they suffer losses.
Some people took to the bitcointalk forum to complain that they had put their faith in the wrong place and blamed CZ.
So this is a great lesson for investors just because of their popularity, we need to be more alert because this is a decentralized market. The risk is very high in every transaction!

I don't think that ieos are bad. At least when its come to fundraising its better than most of the icos. But it matters which exchange is providing the ieo and how good the project is. Most of the ieo in binance or okex are profitable if you buy it for profit. If you are a holder then ieos are not for you.

that only happens to amateur speculators. Those people are usually lazy and don't like to read much but want a lot of money, so they always blindly speculate just because the project is in cooperation with Binance.
This is a deadly investment and they are often the prey of whales. I believe that after these failed investments, they will realize how important the project analysis is. because there are non-IEO projects on Binance that are still successful like CIPX, BQQQ, BXY, UDOO, ...

IEO is much better than ICO, because tokens are at least provided by some exchanges. reduces the risk of buying these coins. but the scammers have not disappeared and continue to deceive the people with the help of IEO

IEO is a solution that makes investors feel safer in this market but there is still a lot of risk if the project is listed at a small exchange. As far as I know, IEO projects at small exchanges have a failure rate of over 90% and that is why we should be more careful in investing. Everyone wants to make good profits but if you don't have the knowledge then you will be the first to lose money.

I often analyze some of the new projects that are available in this market and if you do not have the opportunity to participate in IEO at the major exchanges, wait patiently because you will probably buy a cheaper price than IEO.

That depends on your goal, if you want to hold it long term, of course you can do that.
Some IEO projects failed during the early stage while some pump, but it doesn't matter if you will go for long term.

The thing is, most investors now are looking for short term as this is what they see in the market, they see it as good for short term investment since it's a high risk investment, bitcoin is the face of the crypto when its not stable, that says its so risky to put your money in the future, but also if it succeed, the reward is also good.

To invest long term may not be a problem for some people.  There are only a few projects that have great upfront opportunities and survival.  Most of them go down so deep and that will cause problems for those who invest.  Another thing that might happen is the difficulty of rising from dump prices and eventually it seems to rot.

Actually, IEO is not bad, it's just that the confidence of investors in stone project investment is still declining and has not increased. of course because there are many scam projects that make many IEO projects also affected by the current condition of the crypto investment market.
IEO is still very early, there is still much to be developed and if successful, it can foster a trend of re-investment in new projects.

IEO is a trend that many people choose in this discount market because they don't know which coin to invest in to make a good profit. I think IEO is becoming a trend to look forward to in the future and top exchanges will have more strategies to attract more customers so don't worry and should learn about IEO. Of course there is still a bit of risk but if you have great knowledge then any investment will make you happy

Right now IEO is not as profitable as it used to be. IEO is dying when the market is continuously bleeding, I haven't seen any profitable IEO for a month.

Too much supply maybe? when IEO was used to be really few people are even get in line just to get the ticket for joining the IEO but now so many IEO released. Although it's arguably true that IEO currently is not as good as it used to bee (i mean the profit) but it's still not as bad as other option of crowdfunding where you can just get scammed away when the devs doing exit scam.
Atleast using IEO the exchange is betting on their reputation and if the project is such a massive failure the exchanges will also take the blame, because of that the exchange will be reviewing every project even further and whether it's profitable or dangerous for them or not.

Now it’s such a time in the cryptocurrency market that it’s better to do IEO than ICO, because ICO is almost a guaranteed failure, and if you will do IEO on top or at least on well known exchanges, then success is guaranteed and you can collect at least softcap or even hardcap, therefore let it be better for companies to conduct IEOs and raise some capital in order to improve and promote their product than conducting an ICO, from which there is almost no sense left.

Most of the IEO in binance get high return. But  it will not guaranteed that it will give always a good return and it will not happen for long ,you dont know when the project might failed. IEO is just a trend now but remember when ICO is in trend most of the project funded is also get high return its only stop when there is many scam project arrive and destroy the good reputation of ICO.

[tetyulfania]

IEO still worth but not for long time, sell soon after listing without have hold because price down and never come back to higher again, you can invest in IEO but just small amount.

[Samboo]

Yes this trend of only looking at exchanges launching IEO will surely overlook the project itself. Nowadays, investors are in belief that IEOs launched on reputed exchanges are always good. But in fact, that is not the fact. Launching IEO is only a means of collecting funds to fund a crypto idea. The merit of a project should remain forever.

[altscaner]

can be said yes, because at this time the exchange is famous and does not experience the same thing many projects from both offerings that are currently not promising, for example, yesterday binance had to offer a project ieo (band) but when the open trade the results were considered quite bad because it fell from the initial price , while the exchange that is not very well known upbit holds Iso and the results when open trade the price can exceed the Iso initial price so in my opinion this depends on the Iso project being offered.

If we compare between ico and ieo, I think ieo is a little better now than we invest in ico, because if we invest in an ieo of course the risk of fraud will be slightly reduced, however, we cannot avoid losses if the ieo project does not have development at all after their sales are complete, and of course this will cause the price of the token that we buy at the time of Ieo, will experience a price drop that is quite drastic even could reach below the Ieo price. So between ieo and ico doesn't have a big difference for those of us who wants to invest.

dont forget that there are IEO that start with ICO first after tryng and see that they failed in ICO, they decided to moved to  other  option and  that was to start an  IEO . I already see many project doing This ,there are big difference but if the exchange donot review a token before listing in IEO you might also be lost.

[Convery]

Yes, this is only play for big exchanges. Buying tokens on Latoken, Exmarket or VinDAX doesn´t make any sense because they can´t bring enoug credibility to the token sale.

[Tomcolor]

Yes ICO time already dead because at this time I can't see any ico project and investor now following a project which already have been added IEO. In fact lot of biggest investor want choice IEO like exchange binance, kucoin and at list popular.

Before, During and After IEO, exchanges showing their support to projects.
Exchanges meet projects with their users. There are IEO teams of exchanges and I am sure each project are examined in detail.

IEO projects can damage the reputation of the exchanges. SO Exchanges must be very careful while choosing and managing the IEO projects.
After the IEO they must also track and follow the project team. Reputation is very important at crypto.

So what I am thinking is IEOs are good way of ICOs for users.

Your idea is a little bit contradicting. You tend to accept the title-are IEO's bad? And then you'll create a contradiction on your next statements.

IEO is not that bad although there are some numerous exchange that will scam even the project.

I'm pretty sure that every exchange that are reputable or popular enough will definitely trying to review the project that they gonna list. When they are hosting IEO the project must have been reviewed and maybe the exchange also has already meet the developers in person.
Big Exchange like Binance as I see never have a scam project, they are doing a thorough review just in case. But, if it comes from a third rate exchange then there might be a problem regarding the IEO that they host, maybe they are just grabbing money and not really trying to host a quality IEO.
