There is no way to make an ICO as successful as 2017, it is too risky and dangerous for investors. And I believe that without anyone to risk at the moment, IEO will be the best and safest option if you want to invest in new projects.

Why still support something that harms investors and there is already alternative that can be used to do crowdfunding, we don't need regulations in ICO when IEO is fully set up to serve the needs of both investors and bounty hunters, it will take a good project with those behind it with good character for a project to do ICO but it's going to be a hard climb for that project.
I totally agree! Why we still want something that are not beneficial for us? Developers can still be interested in ICO projects, though, investors are no more interested in that kind of projects. IEO is way better than ICO, it serves both parties. I think ICO still can exist in the field, however, it will no more be a choice for me and many investors!

As crypto gets exposed to the world gradually, new and more convenient features enter the market.Initial Exchange Offerings are taking over with their planned and well structured activities which put the whole project on checks and make sure investors get their holdings after making the buy orders.Again, the coin gets the opportunity to be listed on that exchange which facilitate immediate trading if not planned otherwise by the team.
In my opinion, if ICOs are to come back in the game, then there should be regulations and structures set aside in order for it to meet the standards set by IEOs.What other way do you think can lift up ICOs again?

Some are still in the game actually. But mostly they are playing a cat and mouse game where your the mouse that will be crash by them if you make a wrong move. I prefer IEO actually, but with the rise of defi, the system slowly changing since some new project instead on doing a fee on big market for listing they would just tried to impress dex like uniswap to get some popularity then go for listing on centralized which they will got small fee since most exchange will give discount to high performing projects.

None.

When I said none, I didn't mean that it is literally nothing but I don't think that there is way that ICO's can make a comeback to this. ICO's are long over already since the start of 2018 and most of the projects at that time already are ended up being either a scam coin or a dead coin until now. Investors have doubts already when they are investing in an ICO because of the scams that happened over the past 2-3 years.

ICO's are not dead either but the success rate of them are very low at this times. For me as an investor, I would better invest my money in the projects that are here for a long time already. Lesser risk although lesser reward compare to ICO's.

I doubt in the next 2 years, ICOs will make a comeback. There is no chance in this time period to see another form massive token sales especially after the fiasco of ICO scams in 2017. Maybe STO or IEOs will take 95% of the crypto token sale industry but the odds for ICO is very very low.
It's better not to expect something that has a very low chance of coming back, being realistic is advisable.
Why would we still hope for an ICO to come back when there's a new platform that was already appreciated by the investors, they believe in IEO because they believe a reputable exchange would not list a scam project, and there's a cost for every listing, so scammers would not waste their money for nothing.

The game was rigged with help of scammers who used the ICO to scam the last bucks of the naive investors.

It was mostly legit in the early stage, in fact, Ethereum, Binance, Waves, Lisk, and etc, these are old but good projects that until now is still in existent and has a good liquidity in different exchanges. The real mess only happened during the last bull run, so we can't blame people if they would not anymore trust an ICO. Let's accept that there's always an innovation, investors always deserves the best as they are the reason why this market is growing.

It should be, to make ICO comes back in the game, it must have some changes, especially in the way of listing the tokens or coins. People like to see a project that already lists their tokens/coins from the very beginning of fundraising. Many investors are traumatized that buying tokens from a new project but they are never listed on any exchange at the end. This is the fundamental reason that investors no longer trust ICO and turn to IEO. But if ICO does that way, how we differ ICO and IEO?  Cheesy

If the ICO can not prove to people that they give a real project to them, I don't think that the ICO can come back smoothly to the crypto. It is because many people have got trauma with the last ICO that they invested, so they think that the era of the ICO ends, and they don't want to get the same mistake. We will see what will happen with the ICO, and we can hope that they will give their promises to the investor.
That is supposedly they will do And each developer will think that seriously otherwise, they will still fail again. The trauma for every investor had felt that time is really hard to completely gone, they will surely think about and sees no difference from the new one.

Now, the challenge could be that hard but if these developers will look for the benefits of everyone, not just for them, they actually get that back and investors will see a big difference. They should have to prove it and should have not to compromise their promises for their is a reason that these investors will show interest with ICO again.

In my opinion, if ICOs are to come back in the game, then there should be regulations and structures set aside in order for it to meet the standards set by IEOs.What other way do you think can lift up ICOs again?

The solution from my eyes is to have a body that can checkmate ICO platforms, maybe that falls as regulation but there is need for a check on them . Maybe by having them escrow token for bounty hunting and that can work in this forum because there are BM who are escrowing ieos tokens.
It has become the responsibility for anyone who wanna try to invest in the ico. The ico has been going back to the game since last year and everyone must see how so many new icos can even reach their hardcap even in a few seconds. I think everyone is really familiar with avalanche ico.

ICO projects are not dead already, only it happens that more people are very disappointed with it because of its bad performance since most ICO are just scam/fake. Investors suffered big losses when they invest last 2017 and that makes them ignore ICO and keep IEO at this time.

There is only one thing that ICO should have to acquire in order to get back the trust of the people/investors is to show their market potentiality. If the devs will show something that can attract attention with the investors, it will also give a reason for them to trust back.

TBH, I was a victim this ICO investment but I was still looking for the betterment of it on the future.

Correct, Initial Exchange Offerings have really taking over the token sale services to the public. But what if some technology will give us something like Decentralized tokensale? We can view what is going on and the project is reputable, have great marketing and good idea, maybe it could bring it back.

I am thinking of something, DeFi has many possible services like this, found on binance blog.

Currently, the three largest functions of DeFi are:

Creating monetary banking services (e.g., issuance of stablecoins)
Providing peer-to-peer or pooled lending and borrowing platforms
Enabling advanced financial instruments such as DEX, tokenization platforms, derivatives and predictions markets



What if DeFi can make something like, Decentralized Tokensale? That's a game changer I guess.
This DeFi hype will definitely be going to make ethereum super inflated in price along with the ongoing bull market, but it is surely possible to make a decentralized token sale with the ethereum smart contracts, currently the IEO hype is going on and when this ends there would surely be a DeFi token sale making the ICO a rudimentary thing of the past which will not be scamming the innocent investors no more. But right now there is still slight possibility for the acceptance of ICO for decent projects that are loved by the community as well.
Yeah, I guess so it's possible but we need a reputable defi project to run it. If none reputable platform maybe no one will trust it for sure. Upon looking on coinmarketcap Chainlink is the Top one defi project base on marketcap, Chainlink network provides tamper-proof inputs which means more secure, we will see in the coming months or years if we will be having that kind of tokensale.

Obviously nothing can survive with high percentage of scams and i totally agree with you that there should be some registration and regulation process for everyone looking to raise funds via ICO just like in an IPO full paperwork NOCs and other documentation work is required and then green signal for ipo is issued by relevant authorities i think same should be done with icos otherwise they will become absolete and IEO trend will continue because people trust top exchanges because they list a project only after proper due diligence and expert analysis.

Actually ICO can come back anytime, but only come back. For sure it depends on investors. I believe ICO can still produce, if the project is really good from the team, products, tokens, and others. Investors will definitely take advantage of that, even though the ICO opportunity isn't that big right now.

I don't belive that ICO will be ever in the same level as in the 2017-2018, the best projects prefer IEO nowdays because it is guarantee listings for them on good exchange. We have some exceptions like Avalanche but such projects very small amount.

ICO is coming back gradually and IEO seems to be disappearing gradually, reason being that the sentiment has changed and with the success of DIA you don't really need a centralized exchange when you can list on DEX with no fees all you need is the right incentives for people to hold your tokens and do liquidity mining

sales progress in the form of new crypto is increasingly sophisticated examples like IEO and STO in terms of clarity IEO and STO have 75% to get profit
so little hope ICO can win over the hearts of investors again

Still some ICOs are raising millions in few minutes but its very rare compared to the year 2017 and I don't find any reason for ICOs to raise again because people lost trust on it then how they will be ready to invest on it again.IEOs are also over, only promotion from reputed exchanges are raising funds other than that all others are just the failure.
Any project intending to do ICO to raise money now must have gone through rigorous means to look for investors before start thinking of ICO because without that, it is very slim to get softcap with ICO. IEO will continue to be reputable as long as it is being done on big exchange that have history of not promoting scam exchange while those platforms that are mere a crowdfunding platform will continue to be subject of intense query
