What Is An STO?

[ned.ryerson]

for the entire existence of STO, I have not seen a single project that was successfully launched. This is an invented abbreviation that causes interest among stupid investors. Money is not insured here and smart people already realized that this is a simple scam scheme.

With all the current knowledge that we have about STO, I think this article gives a clearer and more in depth insight. But the question still remains, will STO really present the final solution to Cryptocurrency fundraising?

There have been a lot of posts about STO, so you don't have to try to do a similar job to promote your website. Also STO is not possible in this market, I have not seen any successful STO projects since 2019, all of them are fake and are just taking advantage of it to collect money from investors.

First, STO stands for Security Token Offering in which investors owns shares in the project. Secondly, till date I have not seen any successful STO (I stand to be corrected), they come with the hype but ends up falling could be that investors are not interested or they find the other type of token offering to be better, that is IEO. Also, since STO has not be successful till date, I doubt if ever it will as even the IEO model is gradually lossing it's hype, if at all there is any (hype) remaining.

STO or (Security Token Offering) is the same system as ICO, only the difference is the background,
it's better to avoid ICO and STO because IEO is better, with notes launch in a good exchange, but it's all up to you, I hope you're lucky if you do it

Agree, IEO is better than all. So we don't need to waste time with ICOs and STO. The market in 2020 is not for new projects, so be very careful when deciding to invest. Even IEO can make us lose if investment is not careful

STO?
S: Security
T: Token
O: Offering.
STO method of  cryptocurrency fundraising was created owing to the failure of ICO, it was created to curb the fraudulent activities within the ICO method but it failed to see the light of the day maybe due to the legalities surrounding it. Its failure lead to IEO which has been working ever since, therefore, with IEO still in operation suppressed STO the more and till today there have never been any successful STO. Therefore to answer the question asked, I don't think STO will present any solution whatsoever.

Rather than wasting everybody's time by spreading your trash website, here's a shorter explanation on what an STO is for everybody.

An STO, or security token offering, is the latest way for half-baked blockchain projects to extract money from unwitting idiots that think absolutely every cryptocurrency will pump or appreciate at some point. Most of these are formed by companies or individuals with little to no experience developing products, and few will achieve the heights they aspire to.

Odds are if you invest in an STO you will get rekt, just as the case is with ICO and IEO investments nowadays.

There is a reason only accredited investors can invest in IPOs in most countries!

I think I will vote for this for the definition of STO.  Developers of this kind project just change the name of how they want to raise money but the fate is almost the same with ICO or IEO projects. If they want to abandon their project, they can. I will believe in STO if there is an option that they can refund their investors if in case they can't deliver their product as promised.

Instead of you to have highlighted your point on this forum you want to get traffic to your blog that is bad way of advertising your blog post. STO is a huge failure and continues to fail. I don't think any good investors will ever invest a dime on failed model code name STO.

I got your point here but i believe if the project is good and the reason for fund raising is to scale the on-going company then STO is the best way to raise for funds, just my thoughts

There are some projects of STO that has succeeded in the past that probably is not documented due to strict regulations. You definitely not heard some of them because maybe they were not listed on popular sites such as coinmarketcap.

Here are some of them:

Blockchain Capital
Nexo
The Art Token
Lottery.com
Hack fund
Spyce Vc
Mt. Pelerin
Neluns
Aspen Coin
Polymath
Provenance

And many more.

The STO can be called the most unSuccessful Token Offering method ever. It was used for a very short time and very few projects, and was not very popular. It was not very likely to be successful anyway.
Moreover, they were very cumbersome due to legal requirements.

Well, that could be argued, but I believe that the cumbersome legal requirements are what make STOs a safer option than other fundraising methods? I mean, we cannot forget in a hurry what happened with ICOs

Yes, the exact statement you gave, because everything you say has been proven to be true and very accurate, STO is a new bidding method that appears suddenly and then disappears suddenly because investors do not trust the STO method.

Well, that could be argued, but I believe that the cumbersome legal requirements are what make STOs a safer option than other fundraising methods? I mean, we cannot forget in a hurry what happened with ICOs

I think this will be a waste of time if debated, because the STO also has advantages and disadvantages, as well as ICO which was once very popular and then just disappear because investors who no longer rely on ICO, but prefer other new methods namely IEO .

Hehe  , yes STO is a new method that fails because not many people respond or like it, so there is no point in arguing at length because STO has been proven to fail during its development.

I got your point here but i believe if the project is good and the reason for fund raising is to scale the on-going company then STO is the best way to raise for funds, just my thoughts

Everyone has their own thoughts and everyone will never think of the same thing as you think, because some people may have lost money with a project that uses the STO method, thus making other people or investors stay away from projects that use STO to fundraising.

good thread, lol.

STO  could be a venture for institutional clients

I agree with you, they weren't very successful and not very popular, but I believe that's why we still need to keep an eye on. I mean, the ICO and IEO were very popular and there was a lot of hype around them and look at all those projects now. They are all dead, and most of them were a scam, just to grab the money from the communities. At least with the STO, you have some regulation and some real value behind the companies where you want to invest.

One thing I've learned from crypto is, that you shouldn't follow the masses and the hype. 99% of the time it's the wrong decision. IPOs have been around for ages and I don't see the same hype there was for ICOs/IEOs, but that doesn't mean that IPOs are not successful because they are not popular. The IPOs rule as of now, and I believe that in a few years, the STOs will have a spot with the big players.

Popularity and success have not much to do in this stage. It will come later

Sorry but I have to disagree with you. On what bases the IEO is better than STO?
Just because the IEOs have the hype of a big exchange? And that said exchange has gotten Thousands/Millions USD to list that particular token?

Depends on the definitions of the STO. I mean, to be honest most ICOs in the early days were actually STOs (securities) and we know a lot of them have made a lot of value gains over the past few years.

But yes, people who think STOs equals regulated and thus equals profit? Do not be fooled. They are ICOs disguised in better clothing.

[Retainly_Collie]

To me, STO is like an ICO. They have the same form of fundraising but only differ in platform. And they certainly will not succeed in the same way. IEO is still the best option for people to get involved and make a profit with new projects

Indeed true,these are some projects that uses an STO way to raised funds and now they're all successfull and soaring. STO is just not a popular like ICO and IEO but it is the most secured way to invest your money.

Damn, ICO, IEO and now this STO like they invent new trending buzz word to cash on the latest craze. For whatever new buzz word out there, people need to do research for a huge amount of time before investing in a project. No such thing that guaranteed a successful profit.
