Why The Excitement for IEOs?

[Adriano2010]

I think the excitement come from the way how is offered and people like it, also i think is more safer than ICOs because the coins will be for sure sent and somehow the team will try to develop the project so also they can win more.

The IEO will not kill the ICO's, they will be a new magnet for those individuals who are going to burn their money to make a fast x10 profit... cause is safe to invest through exchanges...
cause exchanges are the safest gateway to hodl and invest your crypto

excuse my sarcasm, but this is what is going to happen, nothing much safer than the standard ICOs, a new bull run is coming, noobs getting scammed in this or in the other way

I like the IEO, which in my opinion is more convenient because of the IEO for me to avoid fake projects, and of course crime. Even if I invest, I believe because I have listened to the market. And I can invest long or short term investments.

this is only one example how investors can be manipulated

still think that IEOs are safe?

IEOs certainly have benefits over ICOs, but they do also have a drawback in that coins are more likely to be involved in early trading, i.e. early dumping, due to being on the exchange. I think whilst you have the benefits of getting rid of the scams, you may also have the negative effect of price drops.

Lately, there is a surging interest of many investors for IEO (Initial Exchange Offering) projects and many are reporting good profits or ROI for their investments. There is an ongoing IEO for a good project in the Binance Launchpad and you have to be on the lottery for the chance to buy the coins. Other similar exchanges are reporting good reception of projects under the IEO label.

So what is IEO? In its simplest term, this has the same principles surrounding the ICO platform but here an exchange is given the vast role in the whole crowdfunding process. In ICO, the main players are the developers and the token buyers but here in IEO one more party is involved and that is the exchange, of course.

So why more and more people are trusting the IEO more than ICO? Simply because the project is capitalizing on the platform and reputation of the exchange. This is quite advantageous to project developers as they can easily tap the vast resources and membership of the exchange and on the part of the investor they are assured of almost instant trading option for the tokens or coins bought.

Just like the ICO which is now a much-maligned platform due to many scams and failed projects, there are many advantages and maybe some disadvantage of the IEO option. Do you see this as the killer and replacement of the ICO?

I think since exchange is behind IEO people has more confidence in investing into it than ico. I have lose money in 2018, to ico projects and when this IEO come up I have to careful because it looks the same just that exchange give some lift to one.

You are right, exchange has an important role in restoring investor confidence in new projects. the greater the exchange that works together to make an IEO sale, the greater the interest of the investor. but it does not guarantee that the project can be a big success, all still need research before we join the IEO.

Taking the risk might be much better than waiting for your ico's investment, people do love the new way of investment and excited to participate in IEO's due to the potential of getting quick profits, if they can do it in a much safer way then engagement will be more likely for investors.

[Cheesus]

It is thinkable because IEO is much better than ICO. ICO can scam you easily by showing the fake raised with the fake team. Therefore you don't know when will you get the ICO token or when the token will be listed on exchanges! But in IEO, everything is transparent! The token get listed after the IEO almost immediately! Therefore, it is safer than ICO in many ways!  So, The excitement for IEO is normal!

[abstractednerve]

I think IEO excitement has created after the Binance Launchpad! I have been seeing these IEOs on Latoken exchange from the mid of the last year, No one cared about it. But when Binance comes with the IEO on their launchpad and when investors got huge profit from the BTT or CELER, IEO becomes the trending topic! And then many more exchange has started to bring IEOs but those are not enough potential and they failed to create excitement or a positive vibe. Only Big exchange like Binance, Bittrex, Huobi can make the IEO excitement, not every exchange!

[maxreish]

I'm not that really excited with IEOs. But let us watch how far this IEO will survive in crypto world. And how IEO's ratings or will  going to succeed in the long run. If this is the way to lessen the fund raise scammers, then I will support IEOs projects. Anyhow, I am expecting that exchanges will gonna play their role to maximize this new platform for the betterment and improvement of coin offerings.

[btc_angela]

Obviously, those exchanges that back up this IEO is to blame for the excitement. I mean Binance, one of the best trading exchanges we have so far have IEO's. So people will tend to jump on the bandwagon because of the reputable of exchanges from behind. A lot of IEO's are now being sold in seconds, indication that investors are shifting already from the ICO scams and moving to IEO hype.

[styca]

One of the problems with ICOs is that it's difficult to determine what is and what isn't a legitimate project. If the scam is good, it will fool people.
So IEOs are popular because the reputation of the exchange acts as a guarantee, not only that it isn't a scam, but also that the coin will get a listing straight away.
I do think IEOs are getting a bit over-hyped though - just because something is an IEO, that doesn't mean it's necessarily going to rocket upwards in price.

if you think of exchanges as collateral from IEO sales, it would be better to join the IEO investments carried out in large and trusted exchanges like binance. because now almost all exchanges can be used for the sale of the IEO.

[dioanna]

IEOs can really be profitable specially IEO's launching in popular exchanges such as Binance and Bittrex
For me IEO is much better then ICO launched projects
Because of the assurance that its ready to trade once launched

It looks like the main problem was on the ocean team, that looks so weird because they have agreed with another exchange site to add it before bittrex was adding it. Bittrex is very well known as a garbage exchange site right now and bill share and his team just like a scammer.

The started price of trade was around 1k satoshi and it's already below more than 50%.

Even some IEO coins on binance are getting lost too.

Thanks for that link and that's I what looking for right now to prevent my friend invest in shitty bittrex IEO.

Definitely it's really good replacement for ICOs. Project owners don't have to worry much about finding investors and marketing while investors like us can easily find good investment opportunities through IEOs.

The most important advantage is that we have more trust with IEOs over ICOs because exchanges usually don't list scam IEOs to damage their reputation. Therefore, they do a due diligence before deciding to list an IEO. Therefore, probability to become an IEO as scam is very less. The other advantage is that probability to become an IEO successful is higher than an ICO. If you see the IEOs held in reputable exchanges, you can verify it.

Due to these reasons, I believe that IEO is a good replacement for ICO.

I have heard many investors say very good review about the IEO they have participated in so far, I cannot really know how it works yet because I have not been able to successfully participate in it, because the cost of investing is high, which makes it more profitable to those than can really invest in a big time and secondly, the queue most of this IEO always get when it being launched, makes it very difficult for so many people to not successfully participate too.

I am just waiting for the time, where we will have more good exchanges like binance that would be able to handle a quality project. Once we have more IEO and more exchanges, the rush will be limited.

IEO is a new concept which unlike ICO. The difference is on the participation of IEO you will get your token credited instantly to your wallet which was not in the ICO. Also, you have to wait for traded the coin After ICO by waiting the listing of the coin in exchanges. But after IEO you will get to sell your coin after the finish of the token sale.

In as much as IEO has its full benefit than ICO, it has its own bad side effect too, it makes the project vulnerable to dumping immediately because the reason why the investors they got participated is to get profit from their investment and not because they so much desire to stay with the project.

If you look at it, people that will get involved more in IEO are mostly whales, who has the money to buy this projects coin in large quantity while they leave the rest to few innocent ones who would not get the chance to withdraw their money by the time the whales strikes by dumping immediately they get the desired profit level.
