As you mention it is just a form of rebranding, the term NFT has become loaded and now a great deal of people think of them as scams, in a way similar to what we saw with icos back then, so scammers and other people that stand to gain a lot of money out of this are thinking about how to offer the same useless tokens but with a marketing spin so it seems like a new and revolutionary concept, and this is the best they could come up with.

Yes, INO is a rebranding of the previous concept to increase community trust in NFT because previously many NFT scam projects, so they might speculate that the popularity of NFT still has the potential to increase due to the involvement of artists, athletes, and top influencers involved in launching NFT in the marketplace, so they will manipulate the new trend to grow NFT with different terms.

Personally, I think NFT is still growing and will take a small part of the market. Many people suspect that the NFT trend is dead like ICOs, NFTs will grow even stronger, not only participating artists but many companies and corporations are looking to enter this field. I hope that in the near future, the term INO will become a new trend in the market, and if it does, NFTs will be extremely explosive in the near future.

My search results yielded: Initial Node Offering (INO) (first line), then followed by Initial NFT offering (INO). I have not heard or read about the abbreviation. I think the acronyms are ways of gaining more attention from the public, like IDO, etc. As people begin to search the term (INO), it will be more easier to find in Google.

What makes me wonder is that since NFTs are technically Tokens, why don't they just simply call them Initial Token Offerings? It's just another form of rebranding to fool gullible investors.

It seems so since many naive investors are easily fooled by new names or tags in the market but it looks like this kind of rebranding didn't make it to the grand audience in short if fell short, probably because there are lots of scam NFTs that made investors have a second thought.

True that but I wonder why it didn't become popular like any other crowdfunding terms out there.

Derived from ICO and all other forms are also fundraising. they don't have too much of a difference and are just rebranding.

Not all new fundraising terms or forms will become universal. There are also a lot of fundraising methods that we don't know about because they are not as popular as STO(security token offering). This is quite an old term but it seems that it is not yet popular and has not become a real trend in the market.

INO stands for — Initial NFT Offering

You are welcome.

Edit: My search must have been low quality that's why couldn't find it 

I did my Google research and I found a lot of information on INO stands for — Initial NFT Offering, maybe it has something to do with the keywords you've used, but thanks anyway for creating a thread about this new crowdfunding, it is something new to all of us and we will anticipate any new projects doing INO now, NFT has gone a long way we know have new crowdfunding based on NFT I wonder if this will gain support from the investing community, we'll see.

It's a way to differentiate that they are selling tokens based on NFT if they just call this funding ICO, investors will not take interest but since they are riding on NFT hype they create a new name for their crowdfunding, this is the first time I read about this  Initial NFT Offering, developers are good at creating new term for their crowdfunding to make it sound new but you are right they are rebranding it to entice gullible investors, but like the saying where the hype is, that's where the money is.

[JeromeTash]

It's a way to differentiate that they are selling tokens based on NFT

Maybe to newbies but there's no difference between a token and a Non-Fungible Token and I am pretty sure the so-called INOs won't live up to the hype given that they have already been talked about for a while now.

What's so special about this title? It's a regular public NFT sale, there were a lot of them in 2021, and in 2022 they continue to appear almost every day. There are a lot of them through discord where you are asked to sign up, get a role, then have a balance in your wallet and get access to buying NFT. Then, when the project appears on some marketplace, floor price rises and you can sell this NFT at a profit, because it cost much lower on the marketplace. The scheme is the same as for all the other IDO, IEO, etc., just called something else.

Cryptocurrency market is full of pitfalls, besides bitcoin, I can tell you all the other trends in the market besides real projects there are scam projects, they always exist together.  Not only does the NFT have scam projects, but any trend that comes to prominence will be an opportunity for scammers to fish silently. That's why we always say it's never wrong to invest in knowledge. If it's not NFT but another trend, there's no guarantee that trend won't be a scam.

INO stands for — Initial NFT Offering

You are welcome.

I googled it too and it did show tell me what INO is? You probably just google INO and didn't show anything because INO isn't a trend yet and people don't go around looking for INO. Use other crypto related keywords and you will get the result you were looking for.

So what is this post about? What are you trying to say here?

...an alternative to the recent IEO, IDO, IGO trends.

What's IGO?

IGO is an acronym that stands for Initial Gaming Offering. According to my memory, the term was introduced at the end of October 2021, when the play-to-earn industry was booming. It seems that the term quickly fell out of favor as the market began to fall in November. But like we said, whatever it changes its name to they are just a form of fundraising, the renaming is just an excuse to reset the market.

Right on point. I think people should search the history before diving into the crypto world.
Talking about the so called initial NFT offering people shouldn't forget how the ICO era ended.
Lots of shit projects emerged in the ICO era only to have a tragic ending.
The same will happen with INO as well. They might start good but there are lots of shit projects already.
Most of the INO projects will fail abruptly.

That should be a must but when your average newbie thinks they can invest a dollar and become a millionaire in a month then there is almost no way to convince them that what they believe is not true, the only way they will ever accept this is by the market showing to them they were wrong, and even then there are some people which are so stubborn that they are not going to believe this, even if in the process they lost every single dollar they had on their bank accounts.

that's not surprising, the essence of all these trends is the same, the fact that they've just been renamed and nothing new or different, "old wine in a new bottle"

everything is a temporary trend in the market and it will go bad quickly so be the first or you should stay away from them all,

 as everything will fail in the end.

[icalical]

Yes, never heard of it, and why would an NFT need an Initial Offering, NFT is a collectible so you buy the NFT and the dev wont develop anything out of it. Making ICO is like when you selling a stock and then you promise something to the Investor, NFT is like an art, so INO doesn't really make sense for me.

Shouldn't be more like "new wine in old bottle" since older the wine the better it tastes.
But anyway, point being that all these ICO, ITO, IEO, INO etc... are all same shit different trend.
I have pretty much missed all of them and never became early to invest in it.
But I am happy not to lose money in these so called offerings.

I don't think he didn't describe the use of the term, but he meant to say put the same wine in a new bottle, the contents will never be different except the packaging.

All the above trends are only interested in ICO, I want to go back to their heyday to get involved with many potential ICO projects because many investors get high profits, but the latest trends will not benefit investors because of the big problem about scammers have been involved in every new trend.

[kojektea]

I can say that NFT is a new concept that is still being studied and perfected so that it has not been able to carry out public sales like ICOs. This is also because the concept of NFT itself is very different in function from crypto coin assets. But I don't think it will happen in the future.

[ilovealtcoins]

Making ICO is like when you selling a stock and then you promise something to the Investor, NFT is like an art, so INO doesn't really make sense for me.

It is my belief that after it creates hype and attracts investors, it will appeal to you as well. because we are here to make a profit, so don't be in a hurry to make a decision.
Currently, it's still a new concept in the market and I still don't see any projects from this form being launched.
