ICO & IEO at the same time possible?

[Stage3]

Hello Bitcointalk Community,

i wondered if it is possible to do an ICO and an IEO at the same time?

Can i spread the total supply for fundraising and use half of it for an IEO and the other one for an ICO ?

I am looking forward to an response.


Kind Regards

Are you part of a team trying to do token sale? If yes, what's the essence of holding both ICO and IEO when you fully understand that IEO has an edge over ICO. why not find a reputable exchange and hold your IEO there, rather than doing both ICO and IEO.  The ICO will be a waste of time in my opinion.

[Mpamaegbu]

Let me be quick to add that many inventors are now wary of ICOs. So, it will be mostly a waste of your energy trying to indulge an ICO for your project. Like the poster above me said, IEO has an edge on ICO. Again, IEO will ensure the investors are better protected against any scam than an ICO which is highly unregulated and prone to scams. I, for one, will always treat an ICO like a disease.

[rosezionjohn]

Look, the reason why IEOs became a thing is that investors got tired, disappointed, and scared of ICOs. Many projects before you still tried to run an ICO but failed miserably and switched to IEO. Maybe you are tying to save from the fees charged by these exchanges but you may end up losing more if you do an ICO.

It was a headache for us as well, what type of tokensale to take. Eventually we decided to go different way. Tokensale is possible only when you show a real real real work and you actually don't need investors money much. From another angle you need funds for development.
Try to think global and find another way rather than making a tokensale or selling your equity to big investors.

I don't think I have ever seen a company do an ICO and an IEO at the same time, mostly because that is redundant, they both achieve the same purpose.

Nowadays, ICOs only work for the very largest of projects that already have a solid user base already and some serious marketing power. IEOs are the easy way to succeed.

That said, some projects finish their ICOs and then launch an IEO after, though the IEO will often fail if the ICO wasn't very successful.

Hello Marian, ICO is almost dead and investors are already hopping to the new popular investment in projects and that is through IEO.
The purpose of IEO and ICO is to get sales so whether you conduct both, I don't think that it's going to be effective though possible.

Can i spread the total supply for fundraising and use half of it for an IEO and the other one for an ICO ?

Not well versed with this but I think it's possible.

Technically possible. I think that's what makes this market a little dangerous. I know some projects are launching ICO for the 3rd time. But if you ask what it is good. I don't think so.

[mekar sari]

I think it is impossible if one project start ICO and IEO at the same because in general I saw the project first starting the ICO and when the ICO was finished they planned to start the IEO, but remember, not at the same

It’s not advisable to run both at the same time; but instead there can be a pre ieo in stages
Then a proper ieo fundraising event.

Or better still, a pre ico and a proper ico crowdfunding event.

Dyor always before investing

What's the essence of doing both ICO and IEO? One is OK and the best option between both is IEO.  Right now nobody cares about ICO anymore, many have been scammed in the past and everyone is drifting to IEO because it gives assurance of listing and also some level of surety since exchange verifies the team.

[axel2078]

I do not think this will ever be possible, every project have to make a decision to either go for ICO or IEO and with the latest trend today IEO is leading. ICO nowadays have a very low chance of ever succeeding hence the reason why IEO is a better option and choice, in addition to its absence of exit scam.

[romero121]

Even now there are more ico's, and with the existence of IEO the entire ico's weren't left. Depending on the team is the ICO and IEO, some prefer going with an ico while some prefer IEO. Recent days IEO has gained good popularity and the tokens were getting into trading within a very short time period which won't happen with ico. For some reason as users stated IEO at present has got some edge over ico.

[chanler]

I think it's possible as long as the team is able to handle IEO and ICO simultaneously, both technically, promotion, and financing. Because both of them certainly requires not a small amount of money. However, in my opinion, if indeed the team has a large cost, it would be better if you just do the IEO by using the money for listing in several exchanges that are already trusted and large. This will be more profitable and convincing potential investors.

It's possible but it's not a recommended way, as far as i know about the fact the investors still prefer to get the ieo right now and if you are being greedy to sold all of your coin and then the investors will never be interested with your offer.
They will consider that as a money grabber only.

[ryzaadit]

The purpose of ICO & IEO same right? The project wants to sell the token with other platform examples like an exchange, but IEO has more than advantage than ICO. The token allocation all reserved to the team, if they want to do that then it's their strategy. Just curious, do you want to make an ICO/IEO. If yes, I'm a bit surprised because the part of the team asks this kinda question, they should have a marketing team and know that they are doing.

[peter0425]

It doesn't make sense at all, in a business model point of view. I would rather choose one, but at this point IEO should be the best options as investors are shunning away from ICO because of so many scams out there. So if you are part of the project, I would advise to go for IEO only.

[Rengga Jati]

Why do IEO and ICO together? Isn't it just making team developer projects increasingly spending more money? I agree with the opinions of some of the members above if it would be better to focus on one of them but really totality and ensure that the coin will be truly worth it to have. And can choose a good exchange all.

[muratsink]

yes ... that can be done.  but I think, today investors prefer the IEO than the ICO.  this crowdfunding model can only be done by active exchange users.  although ICOs make more money than the IEO, but ICO often becomes an opportunity for fraud.  and that makes investors worry about losing their assets.

[glendall]

in some cases that I have seen, ICO and IEO are not done together,
but usually the IEO is carried out after conducting an ICO and the target is not reached, in this situation the project usually tries to switch to the IEO so that the funds collected are on target.
but there were also those who conducted ICO private sales and success, but also carried out the IEO.
so if at the same time I don't think there is, but if the IEO is often done after the ICO and I often see the case.
I hope this helps.
