Are ICOs gonna phase out very soon?

[GodHatesFigs]

As it is not sad, but the ico in its former form will not return. Ieo, too, will soon die out because what is created only for speculators can not live long.

[bering]

ICO's popularity has been decrease since last year because large number of scam ICO's which caused investors thinking twice to invest again and difficult to restore again investors confident to invest at ICO's again so if this situations not getting better i think possibly for next several years ICO's eventually will be disappears but sometimes i was wondering if bear market not happened whether ICO's still profitable or not

I think you are right and the ICO time is over. Even if you look at the bounty companies, all new projects are carried out by IEO. I think that with this approach, everything becomes more transparent, the more famous the exchange on which IEO is held, the more guarantees that enough funds will be raised.

[rosezionjohn]

ICOs are on a decline but I don't think they will be phased out completely. There are projects that start out as an ICO then after a few months, they switch to IEOs.

[Raymondavid47]

Definitely icos are going to phase out soon. It's just a matter of time.  IEO's as increased the degree of trust users have for projects. Also IEO as solved the issue of kycs too. Now investors can invest knowing that the token/coin is definitely going to be listed.

I can assure you that ICO will soon die in the bear market and this market has changed very quickly in the last 3 months so it is certain that scammers in ICO projects will soon disappear in the future. Now is the time to choose the coins that are available in the market to invest because it can help you find truly potential projects and if you want to be more risky then the then the IEO is your new choice

[FUD Expert]

I have been playing into some few ICO projects lately, and the reality is that I lost a lot of money due to the domination of the bear market and uncertainty of the projects going forward.

As the old saying goes, more than 90% of those projects are either scams, failed to reach soft cap, or not getting any traction in the next few months or so.

Maybe it’s because ICOs are not regulated and investors like me holds all of the risks.

Until now, there are still new ICOs emerging. However, there are also new ones such as STOs (security token offerings), IEOs (initial exchange offerings), and so on. It seems that both STOs and IEOs are already being considered the next big thing in raising crypto funds for starters.

With their ongoing emergence, are ICOs gonna be over soon? Are they gonna saturate and may phase out due to projects turning to STOs and IEOs?

I wanna know about your thoughts regarding this one, and I would greatly appreciate it whether if you agree or not with my opinion. Thank you in advance.

Why do you worry so much when ICO compared to IEO/STO are not so different at all? IEOs are  just ICOs using exchanges to raise money and I don't know STOs a lot but they required KYC and stricter whitelisting.  You are very weird because you should be glad actually.

[triangles]

for ICO some may conclude that I am saturated because a number of IOCs last year I saw many are replacing their fundraising with IEO and STO systems, and now for ICO I have just seen it is also very quiet. to investors because their project is not successful in selling

[babicena14]

In my opinion, the best way to invest in 2019 is IEO. ICO is now not credible, because the scammers are coming up with new schemes to deceive investors. As for STO, to date, I have not seen any high-profile project that managed to attract enough funds.

These are IEO and STO, which may be prohibited, as they depend on a third party. Nobody forbids scammers (for example) to organize ICO. Of course, ICO will not be as massive as in 2017-2018. But it will be for a long time.

[Utuhikan]

ICO, STO and IEO are competing to win the trust of crypto currency investors and players. The large number of ICO frauds indeed threatens the existence of the ICO. I am sure that sooner or later this ICO will be extinct from the market. STO and IEO will dominate the market. I am convinced that public trust is built more quickly when the STO and IEO arrive. The arrival of the IEO and STO as a savior of the market so that the market situation is more stable and improving. Crypto currency players are actively playing on the market again.

[kanmo]

I totally agree with your opinion that ICOs will fade out as a result of the emergence of IEO. Its very rare to see a new blockchain startup to opt for ICO when it comes to fundraising. Therefore, they already know the taste of the investors and that's why a lot of new projects adopt IEO instead of ICO.

[Anonylz]

Any credible project of this present time would much rather prefare to host an IEO than an ICO because the loss of trust that is attached to ico's lately, so the more IEO are coming into play the less will be ico in the market then gradually ico's will phase out and crowd funding will have a new look which is IEO, ico already lost their credibility in the eyes of investors, this is major reason why IEO is gaining more attention and will take over soon.

We can't tell today that IEO is profitable compared to the existing ICO and STO in the market. We already know that scammers are also looking for another opportunity that they can get more money from crypto investors. Of what they'll do with ICO will something to be done in IEO also in the coming days. We can't find assurance that investing IEO will be safe from any scamming activities in the market.

[roosbit]

With the fact that ICOs make it easy for people to get scammed, companies today have resorted to a safer crowd funding method which will reassure their future investors that their money is safe and the only way to show this commitment is to move away from ICOs.

ICO out, IEO in

[jvdp]

We should not stop the launching ICO phases for the new forthcoming projects. I believe some of the projects might be rejected due to their own parameters so considering and investing on new IEO should not be the ideal way on investment.

Then after plenty of IEO launchpads started by various exchanges still there are people showing more interest over the ICO investment as well.

[Chika08]

I can't say for sure. But the new trending initial exchange offerings is gradually taking over the whole fundraising business. The ICOs may die off although there are still projects who have refused to take part in IEOs

[aioc]

With two good option for investors to invest, investors and bounty hunters can finally say goodbye to ICO's, I must admit it these ICO's are pain the ass for investors and bounty hunters I have a lot  of bounty campaign that I've participated but I never get profits from them because they failed to get into the market and most of them just run away.

[tranduong123]

ICO may not grow as strongly as before but I believe it will not end. STO has no clear rules yet, IEO only succeeds on large exchange platforms, And that will not be enough to meet the needs of many projects.

You still think that ICO is not going to die, well check the scam sections and projects that have failed in the market and the number could go up to thousand, ICO is not worth to get in anymore and it's only a matter of time people will stop seeing ICO based coin, because it lacks support anymore from investors and traders.
