IEOs drop in value is no threat

[MrPiggles]

There are some things that are bothering me in IEOs, especially by Binance or Huobi. You need to hold a lot of money in their tokens to be eligible for a lottery, so I believe it is very unfair for 70 percent of investors without a great starting sum of money.

Having to keep the money in the project's token makes many people difficult and they will easily lose 10% if the investor is not lucky. I think this has a huge impact on making money and this is the reverse side that all projects are facing. In my opinion, a smarter strategy is needed to make it possible for everyone to participate. Personally, I will choose the equally divided solution for all investors like exchanging OKEX, GATE usually applied in IEO.

I read few posts today and people keep talking about IEO losing price well here is my own thought

1)IEO projects from popular exchanges are safe and not scam and thats what matters most

2)just because its IEO don't expect quick profits ,they tend to drop in price and that doesn't mean they won't recover at least

What IEO fix is 'getting scammed' and not always profits for investors, thats why I keep telling people not to rely on exchanges only ,just because an IEO is from popular exchange you still need to do research on the project yourself to at least understand what they are introducing

I think just because a project will be running an IEO doesn't automatically mean the project is a good project... most exchanges which list these coins are just in for the money they'll get before and after listing

Most of the exchange sites are aiming to get the fees from doing IEO. Exchange site has been taking the big advantage in this case and remember an IEO that runs in popular exchange site could not be a scam but the fact it could get decrease on its price due to the lack of demand to buy that token or it gets less than what has already expected before.
I heard some exchange sites get a few percents from IEO.

I am excited that IEO has solved a key problem in the crypto market and that is the problem of fraud perpetrated by project developers. We will now build on this success to eliminate other deficiencies In the market

I wouldn't be so sure about point 1 

Even though you are not so sure about those words, it is your choice but I've seen people's posts here about complaints about IEOs but if you don't believe it, it doesn't matter.

It's your money anyway, you have all the control and by doing your proper research then you'll be able to get something out from this market,
do what it takes to lessen the chance of losing your money, review everything before riding with this new way of investment.

If you do not get into the IEO, there is no need to buy into it again until all the tokens locked are released, then you will know the true value of the tokens, see what we are seeing now most of the 2017 and 2018 tokens locked and vested are now coming to the market and people are getting burnt holding them. All the IEO on Binance has their prices going south and this will likely continue

[huhhuh18]

Hahaha....you think so? As for me, I see that as an alarming thing and it shows that the pump and dump in crypto isn't ceasing yet. IEOs indeed have better metrics as compared to ICOs but the fact that they end up same (or almost) shows it is still alarming. You can conduct a review on all the IEOs and you'll see the price keeps on dumping everyday! Why??- because investors are dumping hehee...and I don't see that as normal. We said same for ICOs and then we ended up with shitcoins lol

Of course it is not a threat man. An IEO might not reach its anticipated or fixed hard cap due to many reasons like it might be conducted by a not so famous exchange. I have been reading about those conducted on Binance Launchpad and they have been huge success. The token you get in the mass sale gain value with the passage of time.

That is true, IEO that hosted by a big and popular exchange like binance and bittrex is not 100% good. I mean you need to look at the project too, is it good and have a good future or not. Well, hosted by a big exchange is really a big plus for the project owner, the project can easily sold out.

[jademaxsuy]

This is the always things that happen in a crowd funding projects. The market price will go down after listing and there is no surprise with that because if it will gone higher then there investors will going to sell their coins right away knowing that they can profit on it already. Holding is still the best thing to do but with the new coins around in the market make sense that one should be aware and should know what coin to invest or not even if it is a coin from EIO or from ICO.

[niisarearning]

I dint dare to invest in IEO after lots of bad experience previously happened with ICO now I am lots concern about my investment either IEO or any other crypto investment I am not directly believing.

[bitgolden]

There was a thread I came across in this forum (I don't have the link to it) and the op was talking about an IEO that is being hosted by Binance exchange. So the price dropping and they start asking questions, him and his friends, only to get themselves blocked by those that are in charge of IEO. So is that also safe? Dont you think scammer can as well work their way up to a big exchange just make themselves look like the good guys and deceive investors to invest in them and at the end they will run away with the money.

I don't really know how IEO works, unless maybe the host exchange will ask the IEO runners to verify their identity before they are allowed to proceed with such. But there's nothing scammers can't do. So we still have to be careful though, this is cryptocurrency we are taking about and anything can happen here.

[aemma]

Yes, I agree with you. IEOs drop in value doesn't mean the true aim won't be achieved which is to reduce scam. Also, this will pave way for solid projects as investors will know the reason behind any decisions they make.

[MonsterV]

It all looks like that the rush of an IEO has reduced. I am still trying to find out what happened why people started loosing interests on IEO, does it mean that the projects launched on IEOs gives no profit?

Not because it does not provide profits, but as said earlier that investors tend to think by joining their IEO they can generate quick profits. Even though IEO is almost the same as ICO, projects that join in need time to develop their projects, not as fast as buying low prices and selling at high prices.

[Chuky92]

That right, it's not threat at all unless for those who always follow hype but not genuine projects. A genuine projects is driven by its potentials, thus on getting to exchange for IEO its aim will be achieved while its long term objectives will be achieved as well.
I think Only hype projects bothers about immediate profit.

I am agree, the good project will expect on long term. Price jump on first listing perhaps because many investor speculate on the price and mostly it happen only on short term, its better to hold a good project for long term because good project need more time to developing product

IEO is really dangerous at this time because large exchanges force users to use their tokens to participate in IEO projects and it makes many people lose a great deal if not able to participate in those projects. I think instead of investing in the IEO, you should choose the coins in the market because it will help you a lot in making a profit as long as you have great patience in short-term investment.

[luthvie]

i really like your explanation, what do you say is right, if we believe in some project and already invest on it, so we must trusted the project will bring us profit in long term, not for short time, so price and value of the token is important but its not everything, more important is develop progres of the project itself.

[asepsetiawan1990]

Cryptocurrency is quite complicated, whatever can happen, various methods and tricks will always be in cryptocurrency. Indeed, there is no system that can completely block scammers. The IEO at least provides new ways to minimize Scammers, Maybe next there will be an increase in security in the IEO besides KYC.
Whatever it is a project and new ideas that should be developed in cryptocurrency should not be blocked by anything.

[psycox]

The IEO is no guarantee of profit but greater opportunities to benefit especially the IEO from a major exchange. Analysis and research routinely on projects are highly recommended before participating in the IEO

[RealMalatesta]

I guess you are indirectly shooting that arrow at Binance’s hacking, please forgive them for no one is above mistake. Prior to the hacking, Binance has really tried their best to make sure that their IEO platform has no form of scam or bad projects which we have not seen them fail us in that regards.

Most of the IEO projects they have delivered has been a successful one from a very reputable organization and team members, the projects are also quality ones as we can see that the successful ones are still keeping a very good value in the market. So most big exchanges will really not produce any bad project or scammers.
