As a result, you saw the emergence of specialized exchanges that were designed specifically for trading tokens from ICOs. These exchanges had to adapt quickly to keep up with the rapidly changing market and the demand for new tokens.
I think, ICO helped to spur innovation and growth in the early days, they also exposed the market to a lot of risks and uncertainties.
However, the ICO market also had its downsides. Many of the tokens that were introduced through ICOs turned out to be scams or failed projects. This led to a loss of trust in the market and a decline in the value of many tokens.
I think that ICOs had a significant impact on the market of exchanges, both positive and negative. While they brought new tokens to the market and created opportunities for investors, they also introduced new risks and challenges for exchanges to navigate.
Topic: Crypto exchanges market affected by ICOs? (Read 259 times)
As far as OP is concerned, I don't understand how ICO affects exchange, what does it have to do with it? I understand the relationship of IEO but not with ICO. I even thought IEO would be a better replacement for ICO with the impact of exchanges monitoring token sales, token supplies, team role maps, and trading. The IEO doesn't appear to exist again, new tokens are crowdfunded, pumped, and dumped by whales. I seriously dont know what the future will be for startups.
for me, this kind of crowdsourcing seems to be dead already. people are seeing that the ones who are benefitting from this activity are the owners or devs only. also, investors don't know when they will get their initial investments back, hence, they are getting disappointed to go into this venture anymore. usually, once the coin or token is ready for trading from the IEO project, their price is only up in the first few days of trading. and you will notice that afterwards, it will slowly decline. so if you are too late to sell your coins, you will lose your opportunity to recover your funds.
How ICOs affected the market of exchanges?
ICOs were like half of a decade ago. I am pretty sure that even if those still exist to these days, they're unlikely to still affect the current market we have right now. Many ended up a failure anyway, MrDave so I guess if there's minimal effect that we're going to be anticipating it would be just those investors cashing out their money, but again why would those still exist to this day?We have been to IEOs, STOs and....yeah NFTs.
Different scenario might happen since if ICO scamming is rampant then massive dumping is coming due to scammers did this and confidence level towards crypto is somehow became low due to those idiots actions did, so it somehow have effect but not for long term since for the same what happen these days where ICO fame fade out and people will just forget about it.

How ICOs affected the market of exchanges?
Are we talking in the past or the current situation of ICO?Well, in the past ICO was one of the best way to raise their funds and if get listed on a good exchange it attracts more investors to register on that exchange and that could benefit them positively. Right now, ICO is not the top option anymore, exchanges are already established and there’s a better way now to raise their funds to technically ICO is just a basic way now, and can’t make any huge impact anymore not unless its a good project that can totally change the whole trend.
How ICOs affected the market of exchanges?
It was really influencing the market. ICO was a great way for many projects to rise up funds and get a lot of money to develop the projects. But, it was, once more. Now, there is no worthy ICO, ICO seems likely to expire in the crypto world. There is no need to trust in any ICO anymore because most of them are only resulting shit coins. The market today are more various and influenced by several new things. Some new thingsvmay be now probably the rising project type after all previous terms. But if talking about the crypto exchanges, for this day condition, ICO cannot give influence the, many people don't trust in any ICO anymore. So, what's else to talk about ICO?
How ICOs affected the market of exchanges?
Are we still not over with ICO? I guess there’s no major effect right now because ICO is not the only option anymore and they lose a lot of developer and investors for some reason. Though ICO might have a come back if they will introduce another innovation which I doubt to happen as we move forward into another way of investing.
The system of ico is not the problem, the real problem is the greed, many projects where raising huge amount from ico unrill some of the dev team started getting greedy, scammers also did there part to bring the whole ico system down.
It is through ico some of the great project in top 100 in cmc where launched.

From ICO we were able to encounter good sum of growth as well as different marketing methods. It is the early projects that gave good support for the exchanges to grow. Over the years different things happened as the market grew, noway ICO served to be a distracting factor for the growth of exchanges. Earlier days more new exchanges survived out of the ICO tokens trading.
Growth of what? The exchange? They can list a lot of ICO coins but it doesn't make them successful because we know that most of those ICO coins are only just a scam. ICO coins doesn't also contribute on the standard cryptos (ex. BTC and ETH). Their value is the only thing that pumps if ever they got lucky and many people have invested on them but when the time they dump the standard cryptos are also affected because the investors think that all cryptos are the same that all for them are not to be trusted. Not only ICOs but even the new type of crowdfunding can still affect the crypto exchanges if they will support shady and scam projects.
It would have been better if you clarified your question. But I think there were many exchanges during the time when ICO was at its peak. The competition between exchanges were vibrant. During the times when ICO was so strong and many even reach their hard caps easily, what everyone anticipated with so much excitement afterwards was when the coins or tokens are listed on exchanges. When the announcement comes, everybody would flock to the exchange and either buy or sell the coins or tokens. It wasn't even surprising to see a coin pump hard upon listing.
When the time came when ICO slowly died, the tendency for people to follow the coins to their exchange are also slowly dying. Exchanges must have lost a lot of revenue ever since.

ICO was massive mess back then it was infested with scammers even though there's certainly some left that are good and legit but overall it was being misused heavily.
then comes IEO after than and ICO was completely replaced, IEO gaining more attention and since then ICO trend was going down so heavily that it has come to this point where you rarely sees some of these ICOs anymore. at the end only IEO that still strives at least until today and maybe into the future.

The ICO boom affected the entire crypto market in a bad way. Scammers made millions while commoners like you and I, lost everything! At the beginning it definitely paid well for those who left the market at the right time. But those who kept on holding with the hope of a rebound, lost money.
It's very similar to the NFT market. Whoever gets in at the beginning of the hype, makes money! Rest all are loosing money provoked by the scammers.

How ICOs affected the market of exchanges?
What do you mean ICO? Lol, that market has been dead for years already, we have IEO that replaces that whole scheme.
But if you talk about IEO, during it's hype some of the top tier are really enjoying because obviously there are a lot of money flowing in their launchpad. But it seems it's also a dead trend now, because we have new hype like Meta and P2E and others. So forget about ICO/IEO though, it's already 2023 and no one is talking about it anymore.
ICO is a past story but people mutated ICO to IEO, IDO and more. They have different names to use but the main task is to raise funds from the crowd, from investor community or speculators. Nowadays, after the ICO scam time in 2017 and 2018, you will hardly to find projects that raise funds by ICOs.
(.....)
As you can see also that the evolve from ICO to IEO -> IDO became more centralized things and regulated. For sure a lot of people got their lesson after what happened on lot of scams during ICO.(.....)
For me, it's a good thing that there are already a lot of ways for projects to conduct token sales for their retail investors. Overall, there are still a lot of people who are manipulating these kinds of token sales ways.
ICOs were profitable for exchanges, due to investors and bounty hunters using them to trade the tokens from the ICOs' projects. At least, profitable on the peak of the popularity of such tokens. On the other hand, the impact right now is inexistent, since the hype finished and investors migrated to another niches of crypto market, like NFTs. If you are attempting to profit through ICOs, I believe you should not have many hopes on this matter. Better to focus in something else related to the currently trends of the market.
ICOs were the bread and butter of some exchanges because they are being paid upfront to host it. It affected them positively although for sure, a lot of investors and traders were burned to these marketing strategies because these ICOs usually are gone after a few weeks. That's why there was an intense ban on ICOs past 2017 due to the damage they brought to the crypto economy and to a lot of investors as well. Exchanges side, positive; everything else, negative.
I honestly think you should elaborate further what your point is, but if you ask whether ICO affected some exchanges then it certainly did in the past, there's reason why IEO is being released, basically it's just ICO but being reviewed by some reputed exchanges and this boost credibility of the ICO that's why this method of IEO has quite literally killed the existence of ICO, even though there are still many ICO being released by some just considers only IEO that is legitimate and is guaranteed than the other alternatives.
I think ICO back then was the reason getting listed insome exchange are difficult, it gives scarcity towards exchange listing because there were simply too mane ICOs out there which many of them are rather low quality and despite of that they still wanna get listed in some exchanges somehow therefore they are trying to get listed with any method, therefore back then some coin listing was rather vital for these projects and it created high valuation for every listing.
