Another STO failed! STO won't work anymore.

At present, there are not any clear standards for assessing security token and the issuance of security tokens. Standards are defined by individual organizations, not by government agencies. That is a favorable condition for the bad guys to break the law, or build up fraud projects,

The standard of security token already defined by the legal standard that created by an official institution like SEC, if you are not following it and that means your security was illegal security. The problem is not so many people understand it properly about what criteria for the token that can be called as a security standard.

The bounty project I'm promoting is STO project that many knew they fails alot but I'm not that bothered because this project is trying to deliver something entirely fresh, it win the best startup project of 2019 and I can't wait to see how far this project will go

Yes, please wait for how far the project will go, because not all STO projects are bad and not all people's evaluations of STO projects are wrong, because most STO projects are unable to compete with others, making it difficult for some STO projects to rise.

Fund raising is the main issue with STO projects, I guess it's the lack of trust that's affecting ICO since trust issue arise in crypto space in 2018 and mere looking at STO and ICO the different is not much, I hope STO can be successful

Right, because between STO and ICO it is almost similar so that trust in STO also does not increase among large investors, so projects that make fundraising through STO are very difficult to reap success in 2018 and early 2019.

Either STO or IEO it doesn't matter, if the team of the project can be able to live up to their standard and deliver something very promising investors will definitely be drawn closer to the project, no one wants to miss out on promising projects

I don't think it's about the trust issue, because they are registered by the sec or law, that's why they called Security or Centralized token. But as crypto supporters don't like the Centralized system, maybe this is the main reason STO can't raise money from their sale.

30 percent of softcap is way too low.
I don't think they could stand with that kind of amount of money.
The very least is to to fill that softcap at 100 percent for the project to continue.

It looks like a lot of money for us but they will also need to pay employees and people which they hired for just a short time like advisers and a lot more.
It may not even be enough yet.
Shit happens, and this is one example of that.

[Furryball]

I don't think it's the fundraising that's causing the projects to fail, I think it's generally on the teams and investors, the teams aren't showing enough courage and strength for investors to trust them, they mostly appear just like ICO projects

[Ken_terrance]

I can still give an STO project a try if it has good potential enough to fill my taste, I am smart enough to understand how hard it can be for new projects to attract investors so I won't judge STO over IEO and ICO, they are all same thing

Today I just noticed another good looking STO failed, and that STO project name is Liqio Exchange! I have never seen an STO that raised good money and doing good in the market! So why they keep coming I don't have any idea about it. I told all my friends that don't join in any STO bounty, just ignore them.

Liqio STO failed, source: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5210813.0

Sincerely all these failed STOs isn't giving the STO method of public fundraising a good name at all. When one meets a new STO, the failed ones will come to mind thus discouraging the potential investors. However, I think if STO is worked on and a good project with good ideas and maybe with an already developed products comes to play, through the right promotion and marketing it might perform well, because I still think good promotion matters too. Lastly the team have a big role to play, because everything starts with them, hence the need for an already developed product to start with.

I have participated in their bounty campaign, their plans where promising, they have already working platform but the bad market situation is killing every promising project.
Lets wait, I believe that in a bull market situation will back to the normal and se will again earn huge rewards in the bounty campaigns.

Well if you haven't learnt your lesson by now then I don't know how you ever will. It's not the bad market situation killing every project, it's just people are tired of projects that aren't really bringing any value, and hence has no actual potential other than speculation or pump+dump to get their prices up.

Agreed, some people keep blaming the market circumstances for what it is happening with icos, ieos and stos but last year when the market recovered to the point bitcoin reached 14k most of those new coins kept failing, this cannot be blamed anymore to the the market conditions, most investors have simply learned the truth, most projects simply have no future and investors are not going to keep investing their money in them if they do no see any benefit for themselves.

ICO failed in 2017.
STO failed in 2018.
IEO failed in 2019.

What else will come? What else will scam investors? How many scams we need to learn from our mistakes.
I would like to see finally regulated crypto startups that provide real results?

I can not agree with you. Everyone is screaming about failures, but what does it really mean. Indeed, if 5 out of 100 projects, 5 have become really successful and the crypto market has been advanced by several steps, then in my opinion this can be called success and not failure. Look at how fundraising behaves in the field of start-ups, there are all over the place with continuous failures. Nevertheless, the most significant projects find their way to the top.

Today I just noticed another good looking STO failed, -snip-

Why do you state this project is good looking? I don't see anything special from this project. It looks like the same as other new projects. On the contrary, on the bounty thread, the bounty manager didn't enclose the links of important sources of this project such as ANN thread and their social media. It is a bit strange for me!

-snip- I have never seen an STO that raised good money and doing good in the market! -snip-

Not only STO, but IEO and ICO also have the same problems. The lack of interest from investors makes the new projects often failed to get their target on fundraising. While, if they can list their tokens on exchanges, the tokens are only about pump-dump. It makes sense if investors aren't interested in new projects anymore.

[Kiefner]

I also stopped trusting STO a long time ago. I don't see any point in supporting them, let alone participating in the bounty. This has long been almost dead direction.

I may think if STO was getting failed for all of the time. It never gets a good result. All of the projects were running STO were garbage projects. At least we have some projects that run from IEO and ICO in the past that can still be trusted.
Look at the top coins in MCAM and most of them started from ICO.  The only we needed is a self regulation to the cryptocurrency. The protection is really needed for investors.

[Bossfidelity]

They've been an increase in the failure rate of projects on tokensales irrespective of the mode of raising funds. If you had checked closely, you'll find several projects who conducted their IEO and ICO also failed. I believe it's because of the extent of distrust among cryptocurrency investors. Investors are reluctant in making investments in cryptocurrency related projects due to the inherent risk it possess and the fact that most projects end up getting abandoned.

I think this statement is less precise  maybe the more appropriate word is "more selective",
because investing in crypto projects or non-crypto projects, has more or less the same risk
Right now Investors think more rationally and conduct more in-depth research before deciding to invest.
And conditions like this will be good for the growth of the crypto industry in the future

[xvids]

ICO,IEO and STO I don't really trust them anymore ever since I got fed up with so many scam projects.
For me it wouldn't matter what you call it, They are all the same New project open up a fundraising for the development of their project,
Then it is only up to them if they would really continue or just leave the project when they already have investors.
