Are ICOs gonna phase out very soon?

[ahmed04]

Most likely, the ICO will continue to exist. At the moment, the ICO is a very good tool for raising funds and large-scale PR of project.

[cryp24x]

Maybe or maybe not. Well in fairness to ICO, many projects has been very successful during the golden years of ICO because the investors really supportive in terms of funding good projects. Now that scammers are everywhere and IEO/STO are already an option, there is a great possibility that ICO will be phase-out or improve into ICO 2.0 or with different term.

The frequent reasons why other ico ages do not disturb because they are not reached or have been It entails investment, or not reached the minimum amount of i should be raised funds. the reason why is lacking in people who invest so no one has reached the target.But the Dencoin tokens will be a succesful ico that we may have and you must try this project.

[abs350]

It seems to me that ICO will succeed in returning to the market and further develop because he had a lot of successful projects that were popular and made very good money

[cabron]

Things have change so much since the time where projects did an ICO have  become scam, people are now aware and are not sending coins to invest, not even to the new IEO. Games are changing too, EOS and TRON tokens aren't doing ICO nor IEO either so that a new way to  tokenize projects not even asking  for funds. ICOs I guess is indeed are goner.

[r_delossa]

It depends on the project. By IEOs it does not matter what project is holding a token sale, the only thing that matters is the exchange where the token is held. So I hope we will return to ICOs, so people would care more about the real potential.

[MIner1448]

I do not think that the ICO will disappear somewhere, even now and a new hype IEO, but as far as I know the ICO project comes out more profitable and cheaper , it's good for us when we know that the project goes to the IEO with the subsequent listing, and for the project it is a huge cost to conduct it.

[Prolifik]

It is already out. The second generation of ICOs were STOs. and the third generation are IEOs.
But it is not about the form how you sell your tokens. You need to make your token unique.

[OptimusPrime_3]

Probably I expect this to happen as many has lost interest in the ico. If the ICO era has continued, new potential projects would have faced a lot of difficulty so IEO have saved the face of crowdfunding on the blockchain industry.

[forexandcryptoauditor]

Looking at the current situation of lot of scams, I think ico's should be regulated.
This will introduce strict rules on what will be the cost toons that ico can be initiated.
There are many factors which are important to decide the faith of the ico which includes the development of the project, area, exchanges listing and other technical details.
With regulations, there will be transparency and people can easily invest in the genuine project.
Also due to introduction of IEOs there is a decrease in ICOs.From my point of view, IEOs are far better than ICOs. There are many things. First, with IEO, investors are sure about the exchange the coin is listing because this is the first step to start the IEO. With ICOs, even though it's completed, most of the projects list coin after a certain period, which few investors are not happy with.
With ICO, there is lack of transparency. It is the team who updates the fund raised bar on their website. It is very difficult to know the exact amount of funds raised.
With IEO, responsibility is also with exchanges launching that IEO to build confidence in existing and new users.

[mazdafunsun]

If IEO s are the next big thing then ICOs are not dead, they are just evolving to something a bit different.
IEOs are emerging because of the past scam rate , same for STOs.
But regarding the STOs ,so far it seems that they are not living up to the hype which most of the people thought they will make. Not even close.

[Mianae]

ICO has long ceased to attract a large audience. And I think that project developers have realized that the cost of creating an imaginary project is large and can not be compared with income.

Yes you're right it's this same projects that has gone to exchanges to start conducting IEOs in time something else will pop up. But the idea of IEOs is good, scam will be reduced to the barest minimum.

[redsun114]

I dont think so,but if there are bounty projects that offers ico then this way of fundraising will not be phase out.Amd now some are saying that the IEo is much better than ICO but it depends on how the project is,even they use ico or ieo if the project is not good investors will nlt go to invest in that project.Like this project the Dencoin tokens that has the power to grow over the dump so let us invest in this project.

Well if you do the comparative analysis, you would see that the prospect of having a good project in IEO is far better than that in ICO and this is the reason why people say that IEO is far better than ICO. I personally think that IEO has an edge over ICO and this is good for crypto startups as well because the more investors participate in IEO, the more funds raised.

Yes this is right. I have been part of one IEO so far and I have been able to make some money as the token I had purchased had gained good value. I am confident that in days to come, IEO would be the word of the mouth and not ICO and I think it will happen because there is no reason it will not. There is profitability in there and people will invest big.

[ManoPrimitiva]

I believe ICO it will fade off, problem is that to get listed in an exchange to run an IEO is expensive and projects still rely on a presale or private sale to get enough funds to pay the exchange fees and still have some money to run a marketing campaign. So, even though ICO will be gone, presale or PreICO will still be here, and of course it represents more risk than the IEO it will provide better reveneue since prices should be attractive for the investors.

[Stake13]

I don't think ICO will be phasing out soon, why? Because even there's a lot of ICO's now that is involved into a scam not every project part of the ICO was a scam already. So  ICO will never gonna be phased out. Its just a matter of fact choosing the rigjt ICO for your investment. Because there are still many good ICO like the dencoin that attract investor's attention to invest from them. It just that it was really depends on the investor which to join a project. Moreover, the project is really good. And for ICO scams, of course many people have avoided it because of the news that all of it was scammed but the truth is not all of the project was like that. You can still get benefited by being part of ICO's in the cryptomarket.

[CryptoIyke]

Henceforth it will not be business as usual as a particular ICO should have to prove beyond every reasonable doubt about its veracity, It is no longer that easy when any ICO no matter how awful still is able to raise some amount of funds a lot of people are wary and IEO's have provided a better alternative and may find ICO's increasingly becoming unpopular

[airdagon]

It could be that the ICO Era has ended and maybe later it will be replaced by the IEO or STO, because ICO quality is low and often harms investors

[elewton]

I do not think that the ICO will disappear somewhere, even now and a new hype IEO, but as far as I know the ICO project comes out more profitable and cheaper , it's good for us when we know that the project goes to the IEO with the subsequent listing, and for the project it is a huge cost to conduct it.

ICO can still continue to exist if all projects are present at this time can return money to investors then everyone's confidence will return better. In fact, after the process of calling capital, the development team is often silent and do not give any new updates that make the community very worried so it is easy for the scam . I think the IEO is still a good choice for everyone and should not risk taking part in ICO projects

[ityandsyn]

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.

      For me , it should be abolished since we have no any regulations for that coin sale of Initial Coin Offering  and a lot of scam project  ,  unlike with STO and IEO which is manage by exchange during coin sale and should follow on their rules , perhaps this will control scamming .

[Gabmot]

I think it's over for ICO truly, hardly will you any ICO out there doing well. IEO controls the other of the day.
