Is IEO better than ICO?

[bebekangsoo]

I think that is right if IEO is much better than ICO because IEO is handle by some exchange that mean IEO have a good security and bring the reputation of thet exchange.
I am still worry to join ICO for this time, it look like still have a scam project.

IEO is no doubt a notch higher than ICO. though the credibility and success of the project are still not guaranteed for IEO projects, yet you have the assurance that they will be trading in that exchange. you should be careful in investing IEO projects and in what exchange? still scammers are everywhere and IEO launchpads are not free from those scammers.

better or not according to personal taste and maybe you think IEO is better, and maybe there are some who say ICO is better but now there are things that are not good.
everything is good if we can do it well, and not all ICO projects are bad, there are still good projects that can be produced if we can find them.
so still we have to be careful what will be chosen because all have risks.

for now it is true that the IEO is more attractive than the ICO especially because the ICO reputation has declined because there are many ICOs that end in scam and if in the end there are many IEOs that scam then people will also leave the IEO and surely they will return to ICO

[mrSamuel]

In fact, it is almost the same. The only difference is that when the IEO token is automatically placed on the exchange. I see no other differences. in any case, you can run into a scam. Exchange can not guarantee you the integrity of the project. How was IEO with bittrex

[joeperry]

In my opinion IEO is much secure and better than ICO if the project is with partnership with a known exchange the exchange will work as an escrow (Just like the other people said) but not just an escrow but also an assurance that the project will be listed on exchange the only disadvantage I see for that is if the project runs a bounty campaign the price might be dropped after listing or some investors won't invest during IEO but after listing on the market itself.

So far I think partnership with big exchange for IEO is good thing rather than ICO who we may not sure what will happen after ICO since most of the projects back then disappear after ICO.

[binhvo1505]

To me ICO and IEO are somehow identical only the main difference is that things are easier in IEO, the question is does making it easier change the overall view of perspective regarding investors or its just the same making IEO a faster or more convenient version of ICO, it bothers me a lot since for me making it more convenient is a side grade more than an upgrade since it just offers extra utility and it does not make IEO better than ICO.

Tell me what you think, is IEO better than ICO or they are just the same with only difference in method.

The IEO is actually better than the ICO in many ways. In ICO projects, you cannot know what the team will do with your money and they can freely delay the distribution of tokens to investors without incurring any penalty. In general, investing in ICO is very risky.
Investing in IEO more easily, getting a token faster and being sold when it is listed on exchange. Besides, exchange companies will use their reputation to promote their projects and the project owner will not spend too much money to promote their projects. The IEO has brought many benefits to projects.

For IEOs investor, they dont have to wait long before the token listed in exchangers. Most ICOs developers team should make negotiation first before make listing and it takes time. For a few thing, i am agree that IEOs are better than ICOs

[shaheer001]

If IEO is on trusted and big volume exchange then IEO is better than ICo, Now mostly project use both platforms first they introduce the project in ICO then afterward in IEO.

[selectaselectine]

In terms of trust IEO is better since the altcoin was listed by the exchange itself and there is less possibility of dump because the altcoin was bought on the exchange. Less risk than ICOs because there is no possibility that ICO tokens will be listed anytime or sometimes it doesn't follow its own roadmap where exchange listing dates are posted. Making IEO far better than ICO in many factors.

[Litzki1990]

Because of failure happen of most ICOs in the previous year of 2018 many of our investors are leaving the ICOs and now the IEO is coming here in crypto i think i would choose the IEO than ICO but make sure if you making an investment in IEO still double check it first.

[escalante28]

For me IEO is better than ICO because IEO have no chance of scamming their investors. We all know that those exchanges  have a name to protect and they made sure that the team behind those projects are real. The problem in IEO is that the pump and dump or price manipulation is still there.
In the other hand ICO have a big chance of scamming those investors especially  who don't dyor. What happened this past was they hit and run.They just collected the money and abandoned the project. I knew plenty of ICO like that.

For me IEO must be supported by everyone but be careful because the price action was manipulated by those whales.

IEO is 100% than ICO's. It's great to see investors opening their eye and learning from the struggles that the crypto community has experienced over the years with all these ICO scams. Listing your coin in an exchange is not a joke, it involves their platform eagerly checking your legitimacy and possibly a huge fee to pay, so we can say that projects doing IEO now are serious to deliver what they promised. An example would be this project that has one of the founders of Pokemon's name to protect and other startups that has someone notable. With IEO's, we can already see what our money has brought in and decide what to do with the tokens faster, you will need to wait for several months for ICO's to even release your tokens. Considering the lock up period too.

IEO is the same of ICO. The only difference is that in ICO earns the owners of the project, in IEO owns more the Exchange that is never responsable for what it happens.

[Script3d]

Tell me what you think, is IEO better than ICO or they are just the same with only difference in method.

The only thing that IEO does better is to prevent scams from happening, only if the token sale was held inside of a reputable exchange, other than that i don't see any special thing about IEO, go for STO if you truly want a project that will actually develop their product.

[neonshium]

IEO is better than ICO. IEO is more reliable and secure. Participation in IEO is beneficial for the exchange, startup and investor. Projects that run on exchanges are carefully selected, fraudulent projects are excluded.

That is very well explained and I will second your statements. I am fan of IEO and this thing has been able to create a lot of buzz in crypto space and in the market lately. Some people argue that had we had IEO in 2018, we would not have lost so much money which is pretty right because ICOs were frequently conducted by the crypto teams with bad and dubious intentions.

[sieemma]

If I were to choose between these two investing methods, I would have gone for IEOs because the chances of being scammed are very reduced as compared to that of an ICO where the devs keep the funds without looking for a better exchange to list their coin after the ico even t has completed. Of all the IEOs I have witnessed, they get listed far earlier than those of icos. I think the era of ICos has just come to an end.

ICO era is slowly depleting but they are still breathing as of this moment yet i have seen there are still projects who do make ICO.

When it comes to security then theres no doubt about IEO which i do much prefer yet tendency of scamming is lesser than ICO but
we cant still avoid or make ourselves exempted with some possible manipulation.

[slashz9]

i think that 2 different thing you cant compare it, the main purpose is same to collect fund from tokensale.
the different is IEO already make parnertship with some exchange before they sell their token.

[ra_pl]

I don't know which is better, recently a lot of IEO don end up having a good sales in some Exchange,  which i think there's no difference between IEO and ICO,  what a project needs is the liquidity of the product and the investors will come around .

[islafilipina]

I think IEO is more secured that the old one that we used (ICO) more investors are secured in paying for their investment and this will help investors not to get scammed

[nikola22]

Approximate 5-10 percent ICOs was successful and rised funds to listed exchange in last year. Investors was getting disappointed and investment in any ICOs. Better ICOs and idea still coming so need funds rise. IEO was new apparition and another way to reach the hardcap by exchange.

it's because of lack of good ICOs. projects don't want to evolve and once raised money they just spend them without doing anything to develop the project.
