What is happening to STO projects?

[barlo357]

I think STOs are just a waste of time. Good thing I didn't give attention to it since IEOs are the new thing now. I didn't really expect anything from it. I just looked at it like another type of project that might be good or be bad like ICOs.

[Red-Apple]

the same thing that happened to ICOs and the same exact thing that will eventually happen to IEOs has happened to STOs.
you see they are all the same thing. a bunch of people create a token on another platform by simply copying some code off the internet and give it an "interesting" name to get some attention. then they start raising funds for their garbage.
only gamblers are giving money to these things and we all know that all gamblers eventually either give up or run out of money. and as they do, these projects start failing faster instead of staying alive for a while and then fail.

Is STO just another waste of time?because i havent seen any STO project that became successful like IEO projects,if they are performing very well im sure i would have heard about them,the last one i was aware of is bitbond which many said its scam,same thing as desico,do you know any STO project that did well?

STO has no scam but investors don't like it. Because STO projects often go through a lot of government inventories and it is very time consuming and costly.
Many projects have mobilized capital according to STO but almost no projects have been really successful.

[OasisDre]

It doesnt takes much hassle to hear about good or successful projects in crypto space and so far i havent come across any successful STO projects i think STO is a flawed.

With the hype that STO received then, and with all their full support form SEC, I thought that by now, STO would have even hijacked the entire ICO and IEO market, but I am so surprised too at the stage which they still are and it seems just very few people are talking about it. The owner of STO projects must really check within themselves to really see why they are not having it smooth in STO side.

Look at Bitbond who happens to be the first of STO, still struggling up to now to meet up with their hardcap while IEO projects has reason several times within that short period of time, and I think the only thing that is discouraging people about STO is the little interest that came with the investment.

During the hype of STO, I also rushed to see if I could participate, but I got discouraged after seeing their interest on investment.

[slaman29]

as far as I know, STO aims to clean up ICOs that are only trying to raise money with empty promises and do not have a working prototype of technology, therefore a new way to raise STO (Security Token Offering) funds is emerging. so investors can contribute to companies with a high level of security. But why hasn't the project been successful yet?

Wrong. STOs aimed to make sure ICOs could still run without being hunted down by governments. Same as IEOs. None of these projects are interested in cleaning up scams. If they were, they would be doing insurance on deposits, they would be giving full KYC of themselves, they would be doing their jobs instead of spending money on themselves.

Tokenized STOs are in infancy phase. STOs on cryptos became a bigger thing just Just when the bullrun started, and they could also have high valued speculation phase during the next run.

But as in icos, you can't put all STOs in one bunch and act like they would behave the same. Results will vary.

[maianh09]

To be honest I thought that STO's are going to take over the market. I've told this to myself around December 2018 but I think we're seeing the reality here that IEO's are better trend investment rather than STO's.
What if STO's are just saved for next year when the market starts to pump again?

The IEO is becoming a trend, and it will soon become the only option for all projects that want to call for investment. IEO through exchanges ensures safety, and investors are not worried that they are investing in a virtual project or a scam project. Traditional forms of calling for capital no longer bring attraction to current investors.

[Darkoth89]

Today, they come up with more and more new opportunities for promoting new projects, but no one is looking for a recipe for how to rid the cryptocurrency market of fraud.  All IEO and STO can only dull the pain, but this will not cure the problem or illness of the cryptocurrency market.

In theory, a fully regulated security token offering should lower the risk of getting scammed a lot. Because these projects have to file a lot of paperwork at the authorities (like SEC etc.) before they are allowed to have an STO.

[asder250]

STO is another hype, same like ICO, IEO. Another hype will be IDO on Binance DEX.
I do not care where I buy coins, I care about the potential of my investment.

[Ucy]

IEO has probably solved what STO was meant to solve and it just died out. Haven't read any news about it lately. Maybe the pioneers are making some adjustments behind scene.

From what i know it is not reach it's softcap, not too deep about the project. Maybe waste of time for bounty hunters because i see if its project already held for long time. So when it is not success, bounty hunters not get any rewards.

bitbond came with a license from the german's regulator but it can't even reach the softcap. STO is not worth project and it's a scam and so many STO has been scamming the hunters after they have reached softcap as some people said.
STO in the crypto is different from STO in the stock market. In crypto, the creator of that STO was abusing its STO.

[suryapro]

If we look at a development and interest of traders, which will have bright prospects and attention of traders is IEO and not STO. because the workings of STO and ICO are not much different.

[DoraNile]

The first projects that uses STO are managed by teams with no experience and many STO projects failed already which is why many investors are taking their eye off any STO projects,the way STO starts in crypto world is not encouraging at all and now i doubt if we will see new devs that will still want to use STO when IEO is gaining all the praises presently,im sure many devs will keep choosing IEO over STO/ICO for now

Nope, never heard any successful STO before. Almost all of them failed because lost is hype against IEO.
Bitbond, one of STO I have promoted I think is scam too. I just wasting my time for promoting their project and they just want to pay me with penny...

[hahahafr]

Security Token Offerings seems promising at first but one thing i have come to realize is most of them did not really survive all the regulations that they had to comply. For instance i heard of this project Organicco, they had some working products going on but currently their telegram community is dead with no major updates about the project. I think its best if we stick to investing into ICOs and IEOs till regulations concerning crypto projects get a little bit easier. IEOs however are taking over the investment platform and i have made nice profits from the very few i invested into.

[Nivia1st]

I didn't even know there was a successful STO project. all ANNs that I saw in the forum stopped giving updates after the STO ended. I think STO is just a waste of time, it's better to invest in IEO because it's more profitable.

[Taufik blackspade team]

Not all IEO can be profitable, except it is put into a large market like Binance.
I think the STO project that they weren't ready to compete with the IEO project so they sank after the IEO appeared.

everything that happens to STO has nothing to do with IEO. pure error on projects that are less ready and less than perfect. that's what made the STO project fail to gain investor confidence. IEO is the same, because not everything is good. some have actually seen a scam from the beginning of the sale launched.

[campusnet]

some of the STO projects failed to collect their softcaps. either because of the existence of IEO or what, but if you see IEO is also not very successful with only a few successful projects. maybe a factor of investor confidence in new projects is still down.
