ICO, STO, and now IEO,.. a little later XYZ and they are all the same!

I would not call all of them the same because they are here because they are an improvement to the previous one. IEO are exchange hosted ICO while STO are ICO/IEO that provides the profit as dividend directly to the holders. So, they are not all the same.
The user experience has improved a lot from ICO to IEO and we would see more improvements on experience and security in the future.

Just maybe because I know that one thing is common between all irrespective of applications, use and delivery. They are all fund raising campaigns for a cryptocurrency project

Don't forget the elimination of possible scam which were very common in ICOs.
I will pitch with IEO anytime.
Speaking of which, I have one coming up which am particularly interested in investing.
MPCX is the project. Anyone heard of it?
Their IEO launchpad is coming up on OOOBTC on the 28th

Hey guys. Remember the project I spoke about yesterday? I just read that MPCX has just partnered with IBM to strengthen the digital assets  management security. Through IBM's cloud products, there will be introduction of artificial intelligence in MPCX platform.
This information just sweetened the honey pot.

They all have their uniqueness, that is well understood. However, which among them will you consider the best?
Personally, I think IEO has more benefit than the rest.
tsaroz, can you personally take a look at this MPCX IEO details on OOOBTC and give me your professional view on the project. I will really appreciate that a lot.

The most common thing a!long all the coin offering methods, is that, they are all used to raise funds for a particular project, whether it is real or not. The difference is just in the ways in which they are raised, which most times determine how investors will turn up for them. Among all, IEO is currently the best, but the genesis of allow through ICO. New methods will still be invented in future.

nowadays we are witnessing the death of "raising funds with offering coins" which is known as ICOs but it seems like they keep trying to come up with different names for the same thing to try and keep it going a little longer. it was first STOs which failed and now it is IEOs which are even worst than anything they have done before because they are centralizing it to exchanges which are already shady and unsafe.

how much longer do you think this is going to last?

lets see after bitcoin crash again, ICO can last a very long time before bitcoin crashes I guess IEO will last a long time.
but the IEO in a large exchange will continue to exist, I think as long as there are still interested people they will continue to hold the IEO.

I think we should separate each of those acronyms because it was different in meanings and implementation, ICO's are simply "Initial Coin Offering", without guarantee of safety if the platform was a legitimate one. While STO is another form of fundraising but regulated by the government through Securities, while IEO is a form of fundraising activity that was offered more security since it was happen in third party exchange platform that act like a escrow and i dont think a reputable exchange will gamble with any IEO's without proper researched and legality. Because when the things go wrong they will be the one to be held accountable and suffer the consequences.

After the IEO was launched, ICO projects in this market were no longer interested and it is likely that ICO will soon die this year because IEO has more advantages for investors. I think liquidity is the most important reason why investors like because they can sell the day after the project ends and if listed at a large exchange, their chances of earning a profit will higher than other normal projects. Now Binance, Huobi are 2 exchanges that provide the best projects but the participation rate will be very low
