My understanding for IEOs is basically instead of project handling raising funds etc. It will be for an exchange to do so.

An IEO hosted by Yobit or Binance can clearly not be compared. In other words, the exchange gives more credibility to the project regardless of whether it's worth it or not.

Am I the only one who thinks this is actually a bad thing and make people focus on the exchange hosting rather than the actual project and what the team is offering etc.?

Your question is very good and there are really a lot of speculators looking at exchanges, not analysis of the project. This is a general situation and that is why IEO projects have recently been bought by many investors but the value still goes down and they suffer losses.
Some people took to the bitcointalk forum to complain that they had put their faith in the wrong place and blamed CZ.
So this is a great lesson for investors just because of their popularity, we need to be more alert because this is a decentralized market. The risk is very high in every transaction!

IEO is much better than ICO, because tokens are at least provided by some exchanges. reduces the risk of buying these coins. but the scammers have not disappeared and continue to deceive the people with the help of IEO

IEO is okay, as long as the exchange has been established in the market for a years. Just like what you had stated in the above, Binance and Yobit, even lots of people think that Yobit is not a good exchange, I could say its one of the stable platform in crypto industry business. And besides IEO as we all knows its really trending, just make sure you check it first before partaking in.

Agree, as long as the exchanger who organizes IEO has a good reputation, I think IEO is a good investment place. IEO organized by large exchangers gives more profit and I think our goal in investing is to look for profit

and why not ? both yobit and binance are exchange therfor they can always be comparable to each other . you can only say that they cant be compared to each other if one of them is different or not an exchange site . now in comparing them , we can easily see that binance is more popular than yobit .

depends on the investor . a real investor will not be blinded by the light/truth . he wont foccus on how good the exchange but he will foccus more on the ieo because that is the one that he is investing with while most of them is i think will mainly foccus on the exchange because thats how they define ieo or how good ieo was when compare to ico .

Actually, IEO is not bad, it's just that the confidence of investors in stone project investment is still declining and has not increased. of course because there are many scam projects that make many IEO projects also affected by the current condition of the crypto investment market.
IEO is still very early, there is still much to be developed and if successful, it can foster a trend of re-investment in new projects.

IEO is a trend that many people choose in this discount market because they don't know which coin to invest in to make a good profit. I think IEO is becoming a trend to look forward to in the future and top exchanges will have more strategies to attract more customers so don't worry and should learn about IEO. Of course there is still a bit of risk but if you have great knowledge then any investment will make you happy

Right now IEO is not as profitable as it used to be. IEO is dying when the market is continuously bleeding, I haven't seen any profitable IEO for a month.

Figuratively, those IEO's who's being held from small/unknown exchange is not showing any profitable results, this bleeding market surely affects how investors thinks about opportunities, some might invested to solid projects who are suffering and taking the opportunities to hold more then wait for the time that the market bounce back and get much better value. Most are down higher than 70% from the last time high.

With an IEO you would like to think the exchange does some half decent diligence, which should mean they are less likely to be a scam compared to ICO's. Also as the exchange has their name loosely linked with the IEO, you would like to think they would choose projects with at least a reasonable business plan.

Basically IEO's are like ICO's but on average, should be safer.

Personally I'm not touching anything unless it blows my mind, which is highly unlikely.

I will not say that all are good but most yes) but there are very good IEOs. For example, I’m currently participating in IEO BTZC on Probit. It is supported by such people as John McAfee and Misha Laderman.

John McAfee? Are you serious this person will help a project,.. man, you don't know his reputation in the crypto market, his tweet cause a lot of panic in the market when he endorse coin, it was his magic in the past that really cause the price to go up but I don't think now he can still do the same magic, and one thing, I haven't seen any project that is successful which is supported by John McAfee.

An Initial Exchange Offering, as its name suggests, is conducted on the platform of a cryptocurrency exchange. Contrary to Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), an IEO is administered by a crypto exchange on behalf of the startup that seeks to raise funds with its newly issued tokens

An IEO is still technically a form of ICO, but the main difference lies in where the coin or token is offered. As you might be able to guess from its name, an IEO offers tokens through a partnering exchange, rather than directly to investors

It's a pretty decent explanation you have. To add up, it's better to choose IEO projects hosted by trusted and top rated exchanges like Binnance and yobbit to reduce the risk of scam projects.

YEAH, it is way too far to compare, BINANCE reputation cannot be compared on what YOBIT is having now.
If investors will choose an exchange where to invest, then, there will be a hundred percent of money going to binance,
or if i will be kind to Yobit it will be 99%.

Just treat this as a new type of earnings, a year ago to choose a project you had to study the team and re-read the whitepaper in order to draw any conclusions, as well as study the token economy. Now you just need to look at the statistics conducted on a particular IEO exchange and draw conclusions if it is profitable to participate, and if not, then not participate and the exchange administration is involved in all of the above matters.

Well, there are bad and good ones, for example, I want to participate in IEO BTZC on Probite

All probit IEO projects are scams. You should stay away from it as far as possible. Never try to invest in those projects because you will surely lose money

I like to know if they have a scam accusation here in the forum because I check the site, it seems like it's a liquid exchange with over $40 million trading volume. https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/probit-exchange/

I just noticed that there are a lot of new exchanges nowadays that just popped up with a great volume, I wonder if the volume is real.

IEOs have their good side and their bad sides. The good side is that project owners can't find it easy to scam investors because they will be subject to checks before their project is listed on an exchange. The bad side is that some investors will prefer to buy an ieo based on the prestige of an exchange than the viability of a project.

Yes, of course they will choose IEO in the large exchange because they don't want their money to be invested in a small exchange, so IEO in the small exchange will not reach the target easily.

yup! it is true.
i don't want to judge a small exchange badly, but in reality a large exchange is the safest for IEO and i think a large exchange is also more profitable.

as you said IEO in a small exchange will not reach the target easily in contrast to a large exchange. so, most investors will choose IEO on exchanges that already have big names.
