IEO is much effective than ICO nowadays.

[matchi2011]

I can say that IEO is the trend now i like it compare to ICO because it gives much assurance to traders the 99% return of investment
but it seems that IEOs raised smaller amounts than what ICOs did raised during its peak. EOS was the most successful ICO producing $4 Billion.

IEO's have a broader support from the community after those several offers from big exchange like binance and huobi attracts more participants.
The success switch between ICO's to IEO's hopeful supporters waits for much quicker results.

Developers begins to workout with this new field of investment, and try to adopt how the system will benefits their projects.

I have to agree with this. IEO is very efficient compare to ICO because you don't need to spend more money to just spread awareness about your ICO because when you do IEO you just need to contact an exchange and do some contract and they will do the speaking for you. You will get benefit from the popularity of the exchange and it is also fast since after the IEO it is already there in the exchange, waiting for the traders to buy and sell.

IEO is the best way for people to know your project and this is really good if the project is listed at the top exchanges. In my opinion, we should consider carefully before investing in IEO because there are many fraudulent IEO projects and you cannot be sure of anything when joining IEO. The best advice now is to only join IEO at major exchanges like Kucoin, Binance, Okex, Huobi, Bitmax because these are the top 5 exchanges that can help you earn good profits.

People are very smart and wise now. They are now thinking very carefully before to invest so the chance of being lose is now decreased. I invest on some IEO and now its successful, Now I am waiting to list the token on the exchange. My mind is still worrying if this token will be listed or not.

So you're saying that it's even harder to scam people now?

[adncoin]

In terms of security, IEO is relatively better than ICO or STO especially if the exchange holding the said crowdfunding scheme has a good reputation. Convenience-wise, IEO is also better since the exchange facilitating the token sale will instantly list the token on its platform once the crowdfunding has concluded. However, not all platforms are perfect. Given that a majority of cryptocurrency exchanges are centralized, there is the possibility of them getting hacked. Also, since they are not decentralized, they take fees for facilitating the token sale. We believe another feasible option is creating an investment protection mechanism for maintaining ICO security and quality.

[confreslamp]

Only certain IEOs are better, for example, if you participate in an IEO on Latoken, Probit or another shitty exchange, the outcomes could be the same as by joining a scam ICO. They are not filtering out listed token sales.

Are they still alive - IEO, ICO and so on? Check this https://ethresear.ch/t/public-interest-projects-a-fully-onchain-risk-minimized-seed-funding-mechanism/5977. It is a new way of funding by using DeFi projects such as Compund. It removes the risk of losing your investment. It will probably do some noise in future. Vitalik spoke about it last week in Seoul.

People are smart but wise scammers are smarter than average people. Some facts never change the consequences, if there are scammers it means there will be always a victims in all industries. In the ICOs, it was easier to scam people due to the lack of regulation and no threat by the government in such cases.  Police can't track the scammers because of the anonymity of transactions in the blockchain.

[Godstrength]

IEO's have certain pro's and con's but it's definitely true that IEO is way a lot more effective than ICO these days. ICO's don't guarantee you that you will get the tokens that you've invested on, comparing it to IEO's where it provides us investors more security and liquidity. Though there are still fallbacks which makes IEO limited, and one of them is the entry point being so expensive. Micro token offerings are solving that as you can get unlocked tokens on a discounted price without spending that much. It's not yet that known but it's another alternative if you don't have that much to spend yet.


Regardless of what ways of fundraising you're gonna participate on, it's always best to DYOR and understand if the project in that offering/IEO/MTO will deliver. Especially if you're the type of investor that is in it for the long-term.

[dearbesz1219]

It is because exchange do the marketing, manage the token sale, KYC and brings credibility to the token sale.
Would you trust some ICO to check your personal documents?

[Impaler]

Yes, ieos are better than icos now. Cause in icos the trust factor is very less. There are lots of scams and failed project. But ieos comes with some good names like some big exchanges so for investors its more trust worthy.

[gaston castano]

after a lot of popping up IEO people will choose to join IEO in which exchange.
of course they see the average IEO results from various exchanges, I also don't know why Latoken made such regulations.
and I think IEO binance is the most profitable when the IEO trend starts to go up,
But at this time the position of IEO in all markets is almost the same, just how investors react to it and see how big the project potential is.

[Vitamin_52]

Very very effective, Investors are not throwing any money to ICO as there is so many scams in the community.
IEO will give assurance that the money is safe and there will be exchange after the sales.
IF the IEO will place in a big exchange another percentage will add to victory.

ICO is more effective because the coins are launched within the year.

ICO has not been launched recently at all, only raising funds. and they collect small amounts because people have stopped investing in ICO projects. trust IEO longer, as there is some piece of software by the exchange

Exactly, most of the people lose patience towards ICO's because a lot of scams happening in the last year. That's why many people are showing interest towards the IEO, mainly focusing on the higher volumes which those exchanges are giving very good profit to the investors. We should always safeguard our money by investing in Higher volume exchanges.

[bitstalker]

IEOs from exchanges such as latoken and the like are hard to believe, because they are strange exchanges that I think don't do due diligence too, just look at this https://latoken.com/id/ico/ETH from dozens of IEOs are just a few in my opinion, what is clear is the rest I think is strange projects and scams so I think exchanges like this should be avoided.

Not all IEOs are good, be selective. Investing in IEO at a time of market decline means you will not be able to make a lot of profit in the long run unlike you think it will be profitable, most investors choose BTC over IEO.

I see that many teams first conduct ICOs, and after some time they systematically conduct IEOs on the stock exchange. Thus, these two types of activities are combined and the result is not bad. The situation with the collection of funds for the initial issue of coins is relatively gloomy due to the fall in the price of altcoins, which for almost two years have actually been in the bear market. However, in any case, all bad periods end sooner or later.

Now that ICO are no longer encouraged in investment and current ICO projects have very little investment capital, this will greatly affect that project. I think by the end of this year we will end the period of ICO dominance and enter another form of investment. IEO is currently a new trend for all investors and these projects always have great guarantees at the exchanges that the project lists.

Of course IEO still has its own risks if the project is a poor project and the only reason IEO fails is that they are not eligible to be listed at a big exchange. At this point only 5% IEO helps you make good profits and the remaining 95% are all projects with no clear development plans.

This is precisely my problem, many people are talking about ieos and how much better they are when compared to icos and yet their success rate does not seem to be that much better than the success rate of icos, why any investor would like to invest in such projects when the chances of losing their money are that high? Maybe I am missing something so I would like to know what do you see in ieos.

The only advantages that I see are that exchanges will try to verify the identity of the developers and you will have a place to trade those coins almost immediately but besides that ieos are very similar to icos.

yes you're right, besides the support of the exchange, there is no difference between IEO and ICO. but still investors prefer IEO, moreover IEO is in a big exchange. the only reason I know why many investors prefer IEO, is because they are tired of being cheated. many ICO projects last year ended in fraud and the rest failed. and that's why IEO is the last resort for those who want to invest.

[forexandcryptoauditor]

Sure, IEO has overcome some flaws in ICO but still keeps some uncertainty of listing which was the case for ICO as well.
There is no garunty that the IEO organising exchange will list same projects tokens. But this is only for say 10%of projects. So most of the time we are sure that IEO holding exchange itself will list the project tokens.

[bangdol]

whether or not it seems effective depends on the aspects and viewpoints used. for investors, it seems pretty good this IEO system. but in terms of successful project growth and investment in crypto is still very small. there are very few successful projects with IEO., in fact, most end up the same as ICO with a project scam.
IEO must provide new alternatives to grow demand and investment in new projects. because it can make trade and markets increase rapidly.

[kak uli]

Good day everyone, I've been back here and now there is a lot of new things here. Also about the funds raising strategy. Nowadays IEO is the most very effective fund raising today. Also because the exchange holds the token and they distributed after the token sale. And also this kind of token sale is favor to an exchange. But I saw some errors or false about IEO. There is token sale for example on LATOKEN exchange, That exchange (LATOKEN) sell the token (IEO) but in the end they will not list on their exchange so for me that is not good. What if the token is sold out? And its not listed on that exchange mentioned. So how the traders/investors will get the profit? Also very risky right? What do you think guys?

I agree with you because a lot of token sales through IEO in one of the exchanges like the LATOKEN exchange you mentioned and the sale of tokens are very effective, but many ALtcoins don't list their tokens in that exchange. they should make an IEO there and register for trade in the same market ... so that traders and investors can trade directly in that market.
