Topic: Are ICO's Dead? - page 4. (Read 1743 times)
Soon the boom by IEO will drop. And many investors will return to ICO. Last year with a falling market reduced investors' enthusiasm. But ICO still is alive and will live.
It is gradually becoming unpopular as it appears more than 90% of them are scam or outright failures. Nobody would want to invest in what has a 90% failure rate. ICO's were more profitable in 2016/2017 and early 2018 but suddenly it because the scammers niche, I think the bear market also played a huge role. The developers greed in trying to hit a hardcap of several millions of dollars was their undoing and with huge dumps associated with those that managed to list on exchanges. IEO's are coming up too but I see them as dead on arrival.
I don't think so. Many good and unique projects were able to reach hardcap in recent days. People are now aware about scam projects.
I don't think ICO is dead... Yes indeed, now everyone wants to participate in IEO but I think that the market, ICO has to prove himself.
In my opinion there are still many good and promising ICOs, and one of the many ICOs that I recommend is Ammut, I have read in detail so that I have no doubt investing in ICO and Ammut bounty join.

Pretty sure most of ICOs investors are moving to IEOs. ICOs is not completely dead, it's true but it's close to the dead imo. If you look at the ICOs right now, most of them are not even reach softcap. Investors are not interested on ICO anymore. If this thing keep continue, ICO will be dead for sure.

ieo startups won't last long either. We need to come up with something new, maybe fees in the daoico format as suggested by Buterin.
IEO is not a panacea at all and it will not replace ICO

NOPE
I say - they are ALIVE!
Yeah you hear me right!
They are ALIVE because they can no longer sleep on one ear knowing funds will come in regardless
They are ALIVE because they focus on building the technology
They are ALIVE because the market requires this
We are going through a maturing phase - the strong will survive and they will deliver.
No one will remember the ones who quit - no matter how strong they presented themselves to be
People will remember the ones who stayed and delivered.

With the entrance of IEO, I think ICOs are not good / dead already. IEO is more profitable now than ICO for the reason that ICO have done bad thing to a lot of people in the past. (Scams, unprofitable, inactive, etc.) I say - they are ALIVE!

I am agree that now is the season for IEOs. Investor prefer invest in IEOs on reputable exchanger because its more legit. Not all ICOs are bad but i think many investor more trust on IEOs held by reputable exchanger
I do not know how long the excitement around IEO will last. It seems to me that the topic with ICO will still show itself. It’s just that the market needs new rules of the game to fight fraudsters. 
And what are your guys thoughts on IEO industry? A bit modified and a bit more attractive in today's market conditions. What I personally like is that projects are also verified by the exchanges they conduct rounds on. And has anyone heard of Bitstars IEO, they are having it tomorrow? Because the project is pretty widely discussed these days, so curious to know your opinion 
Why do people think the IEO industry is different than ICO industry? You know it is exactly the same thing, just that you are trusting an exchange instead of the company itself doing the ICO right? And that you are trusting that instead of the public doing due diligence and whatsoever investigations, you are trusting that the exchange will be ensuring everything is legitimate with the team.
Now among crypto enthusiasts it has become fashionable to pour out "slops" on the ICO, but I am 98% that if some interesting and promising project decides to hold an ICO, then all these skeptics rush to buy tokens forgetting about their previous speeches.
ICO are not really alive. Things have changed and now it’s the season of IEO. What’s causing this because of too many cryptocurrencies with little functionality. Everyone just making promises without working towards fulfilling it. People are very cautious of investing into new projects now.

ICO doesn't die. but indeed currently experiencing difficult times due to competition from the launchpad and also Ieo. plus a list of bad checks that make it harder for ico to get investors. so in my opinion it must indeed be able to restore investor confidence

I say they are alive ..bad ico doesn’t mean there aren’t good one around like ProBit since I started investing in IEO. I bought Farm2Kitchen F2K tokens in the IEO. Btw, I have a code to get extra bonus tokens. Message me on Telegram @pnash234
The ICO money collection model is now over. Because in this model, continuous failures were experiencing frustrations and dramas. Now the new trend IEO. This model also does not have much guarantee.
ICOs will bounce back (especially under the form of STO) but utility tokens are dead in my books.
but all the way it would be the different form of ICO. now we can say that IEOs are the same ICOs only with exhcanges as a middlemen.
Exchange as the middle man is what makes people boost their confidence in investing again.
Investors never leave the market, they just need a proper platform that would give them security and this IEO gives them what they are looking.
ICO will still exist but it needs to improve, if the government will intervene it would help, without middle man it's alright as long as those ICO projects needs to register first in a certain government agency before they can start, they can either be denied or approve based on the guidelines.
