For investors, trust and peace of mind are priorities. And in this case, STO is really safer for investors. Which of them will remain on the market will be clear during the bull race

both are good, but now ico is still the main choice. maybe a few more years STO can be the best way to find new project funding. so we just wait ...

I personally chose STO because it was very good except that there are many rules that must be obeyed if you want to join

I think that sto is just a new term with a little difference from ico because it will give the investors the guarantee that they will get enough or fair gains with all their investments. Sto is also more secure as compared with ico but sto is just the new model of ico.

Honestly, I will just support these STO if it can guaranty profit and they will allow bounty hunters to promote and get a  share of their profit the only STO I know is DESICO and it has a bad reputation in the community and among bounty hunters.

There is many STO projects right now:

JustPowerIT  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-sto-justpowerit-worlds-1st-sto-on-power-for-the-blockchain-community-5069743
Bolton Coin - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annsto-bolton-coin-bolton-first-credit-limited-5083418
GoWeb - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-goweb-sto-official-thread-5103868
LXDX - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annsto-lxdx-own-shares-and-dividend-rights-in-crypto-derivatives-exchange-5068173

and more..

Investors are afraid of investing in ICO, therefore they will check whether the STO will be more profitable. It will definitely be popular, but it certainly will not look like ICO market in 2017. Everyone is more careful now.

There is saying that, only timeless thing is change. Last few years were of ICO, today may be of STI and it will be replaced by something else in future.

The real success of STOs won't happen without the next bull run. While bears are on top STOs won't become the next big thing. I guess the market will not show a good performance this year so I'd not expect STOs to become very popular soon.
I beg to disagree with you on these. I feel that STO would still thrive even in the bear market, that is the good thing in STO. STO depends more on the growth of the company rather than the status of crypto market price.

I think that it's suitable to stop investing in different ICOs  or STOs. You can get from such projects only if the market is growing. But now we can see that there is still bear market.

We all know the ICO market is kinda dead right now. Not many good projects are out there. And if there is indeed a good project there is the fear it won't go well considering how the 2018 was for the ICO's. The last ICO I invested was 11 months ago and I don't even to get started on how it went and all the problems there are even now. But regardless that, I've seen the hype shift from ICO to STO. Seems that S in STO is really giving security to the investors.
STO in the other hand is not another utility token (most of them have no utility at all), but actually gives you shares on the company and you have some return on your investment just in e few months. Obviously not the whole investment but you can see smth entering your wallet.

My question is: Will 2019 be the year of STO?

The STO phenomenon is still relatively new in cryptocurrency. In my opinion, nothing is really different in terms of perception of both ICO and STO. The STO will still struggle to get funding for their token sales. There were STOs even in 2018 that couldn't get through with even 20% of their token sales. And have decided to just forge on with the little they got. I am not sure if the STOs either will succeed.

With the fail in ICOs last year and the number of scams that are circulating it is better to invest into a solid STO which would definitely bring you back some good profit. Also investing into STOs are quite safer in terms of financial risks compared to investing into ICOs.

I would not say that he is dead, most likely moving away from the shock after the fall of the market, but I have to agree that STO will soon be more popular than ICO!
Sto gives investors more than "useless tokens" and it is more responsible to its investors. It's not about popularity, it's just that STO is more reliable.

I don't know if 2019 already will be the year of STO, but I believe STO will be the next big wave of the crypto market.

STO give you a dividend on the profit of the company you are investing and you will have securities rights like in the traditional financial markets. I think it's better than just investing in a utility token, where, by the way, most of the time there's no utility, like you said. I'm looking forward to this new type of investment.

So many STOs are yet to give us the real essence of STO. It is until they all start giving back what real security token stands for,  in terms or dividends or profits.
Some are of the opinion that when am STO lunches on exchange, it might not dump, unlike what we experience on ICO and that perhaps a dump is suspected, there will be a buyback. All these and many more are what i want to see happen, in order to believe in STO.

ICO and STO are similar, the difference is that STO gives more guarantees for investors' funds, but in my opinion this is the same for now, I ask them to give more updates or updates from this in the future

Currently I have seen a lot of STOs being launched, but it doesn't really attract investors like ICO. Perhaps the reason is that it is too new for investors and no STO has been successful recently, it makes many investors fear and dare not invest. We may wait a long time for STO to become popular and gain confidence from investors

We might be leaving the ICO stage in cryptocurrency and now the emergence of STO reffered to as (Security Token Offering) in which required to comply through liscensing required by the law. In other words STO is an upgrade of ICO that might be the start of another bullrun and the resolve to security on our investments.
STO will win over ICO that's for sure. Security Token Offering is like the upgraded ICO on which the investors are secured with tangible assets like land and Machineries. Maybe this STO will be the trigger for the bull to run this year as it will be a powerful tool for each company securing everyone's investment for capitalizing company finances.

Yeah, I do prefer STO this time. They are more credible than these ICO projects. At least, we know that there's an actual company working behind it. Unlike with ICO projects, most of them have fake team and empty promises.

Guys, please could you explain what's the main difference between Sto and Ico? I mean: 1) can everyone to participate or t's only for accredited investors? Will the tokens be listed on an exchange or not? In a few words: how can I make a profit?
There's no a lot of differences and it just like when you were seeing so many icos used IPO rather than used ICO to avoid the compliance but this will not make this STO will be directly compliances with the regulation that created by the regulators.

People stopped investing not only for the scam but also for the bear market. Because in this condition of crypto, making profits is very difficult. So, ICO market has almost stopped, at this moment some STO projects are doing well but not every STO! So, I don't think 2019 will be the STO year. If the bear situation ends then we can hope an STO era in the crypto world, not before.

Until the bears leave the market and crypto growth begins, the “STO” will also not enjoy popularity. And judging by the pace of the market, it will not happen soon.
You're wrong because the crypto currency market status can not stop the growth of STO because the mode of investment applied by the STOs is different and secure than ICOs cause STOs brings liquidity to investors which the reason why almost 97% STOs in the current market were participated by alot of investors around the world.
Maybe STOs can give a feeling to investors about security and legalization but there is no reason to ignore ICOs. Scammers are looking for new methods for stealing other people's money but it is not easy nowadays. STOs can prevent this fraud trend and ICOs need to adopt to these new ecosystem.

STOs managed to arouse interest. But I think the ICO process will continue for a while. Binance is preparing for the ICO for a project after BTT. And these moves of Binance reaffirmed the view of the ICO.

Yes, but there will not be the same excitement as in 2017 around ICO projects. After increasing the STO of projects, investors should start to return to the market.

I think STO can be popular seeing in this way investors are safer. but as long as the market is still down it's hard to get investors interested. so as long as the market has not changed, STO and ICO will succeed.

We will probably see more STOs than ICOs this year. Whether or not this is the year of the STOs still depends on the project of course. Investors will invest based on different criteria and not just because it is a STO.

It was very simple to collect investments with ICO in the early times. However, it became harder day by day. And right now it's really hard to get the investment. STO is a new idea. It's not clear if it'il work. If it works, the ICO period may close.
I see that everyone is discussing ICO and STO from the point of view of investors. However, in my opinion, we are here primarily bounty hunters and I would like to hear how the transition to STO will affect bounty hunters and their earnings. If STO is tokenized shares or tokenized assets, that is, externally, these will be the same tokens that we will receive in our wallets, then for bounty hunters, the transition to STO changes little.

I really think both of these lack real long term sustainability. This is why both ICO and Sto have struggled to make impacts recently. Most investors are fed up with the struggles of both. I think a new kind of token offering has to be introduced. One that ensures the challenges of ICO and STO are completely checkmated. It's only a matter of time before we see anything remarkable.

when compared to events like last year, it seems like today many are trying to lead new investor hype and also to make the market recover with new products and they try to use STO. , If this is the goal, maybe they will just repeat the same mistake. ICO and STO has no difference in this case. The point is they just need new investors  Grin

Due to the many ICO failures in 2018 caused by the bear market, all eyes are turned with hope of recovery some loses in STO.

Most probably 2020 and 2021 will become years of a new STO hype. Don't expect any miracle during the bear market while everything is bleeding. In a best case scenario we'll see some really popular STO project at the end of 2019 and it will become a start of STO era.
seems like that, lately the STO project is very popular and interesting. I hope that in the future the STO project will be even better. this is a good start for the STO project to be developed.

Still, ICO, I see the future of the ICO as STO is almost the same with ICO, there's no doubt people will still going to support ICO rather than this STO in the market of cryptocurrency.

Utility tokens will going to be the best in 2019, there's nothing I can see that can turn the table to some STO tokens gaining momentum in this bear market, we should rely on Utility for profit.

ICOs will really die as most of peoples have no faith on investing in ICOs right now in light of extreme bearing market and almost 80-90% ICOs becoming scammed or failed. I hope STO not like the the ICOs, it is new type of investment, will see what kind of safest and return they will provide to investors, time will tell it will be successful or not.

STOs are suffering the same fate that ICOs are presently going through, they might bear different names and be two different things but we have to bear in mind that they all share the same CoinMarketCap.

Most probably 2020 and 2021 will become years of a new STO hype. Don't expect any miracle during the bear market while everything is bleeding. In a best case scenario we'll see some really popular STO project at the end of 2019 and it will become a start of STO era.

You are right, ICO and STO are correlated with the market sentiment. That being said I guess a lot of investors have realized that STO actually have a value. And if we are to have a bullish market the money will go into STO and no longer in ICO. At least that's what I would do
A value for what? both have the same fundamental and there was no a lot of differences between both of these things. ICOs similiar to the STO. Even if STO claimed to be more compliance with regulatiuon and then it's not yet even registered on official institution.
This means that STO is better than ico if it complies with regulations, is this possible to become a trend in 2020? STO will be better than ico even though both are the same.

There are 2 main types of ST. 

1. is tokenised stocks which are ownership shares in a real company that behaves like a token.

2. tokenised real assets such as real estate.   tokens that represent a small fraction of an illiquid asset like a house.


whether or not 2019 is the year of STOs depends on whether people issuing STOs can make it good for the investors. it could bring about a new wave of investment in physical infrastructure and save the housing market just in time.   or just in time to buy the bottom of the market.  or the extra supply of real estate from tokenised real estate boom could make housing prices come down A LOT.   it's interesting let's find out.

I would hope so (the start of the STO market in 2019). But most likely it will happen later. Maybe in 2020.
The boom in ICO has passed, and I think forever.
Why do we have to guess? We'll wait a little longer and see for ourselves  Wink
Speculating things that isn't happen yet is very common inside this forum, we do assess things that we are hoping to gained success after, as this
new system got implemented we are still unsure what can be the effect as investors are still away from the market due to this bearish market that
still exist and extending its stay, we will be able to assess after full implementations got an impact to the entire market.

The real success of STOs won't happen without the next bull run. While bears are on top STOs won't become the next big thing. I guess the market will not show a good performance this year so I'd not expect STOs to become very popular soon.

STOs are on the rise and im very positive about stos as they provide better trust level to investors as they become the shareholders also people are loosing trust in utility tokens after recent terrible bear run where the prices have gone down 10 to 20x and even more.

We are already entering the STO era and according to the last report of Coinmarketcap STOs are the next big trend. I have already seen a lot of projects that are offering STO and people seem to trust these projects much more.

We all know the ICO market is kinda dead right now. Not many good projects are out there. And if there is indeed a good project there is the fear it won't go well considering how the 2018 was for the ICO's. The last ICO I invested was 11 months ago and I don't even to get started on how it went and all the problems there are even now. But regardless that, I've seen the hype shift from ICO to STO. Seems that S in STO is really giving security to the investors.
STO in the other hand is not another utility token (most of them have no utility at all), but actually gives you shares on the company and you have some return on your investment just in e few months. Obviously not the whole investment but you can see smth entering your wallet.

My question is: Will 2019 be the year of STO?


I won’t agree that icos are dead
Either ico or sto, what actually matters in the Blockchain Technology is the product value

We need good projects not stos

Its likely, As of now many projects are using STO to get funds from their investor, but reminders do your own resesech to the project that you want to invest to avoid losses.

Yes I think the era of ICO is over and STO will be the next option to switch. STO projects are well screened to ensured the safety of investors funds by the SEC. Those projects always have really idea, great product and platform usage to ensure token liquidity. Also investors are entitled to shares in the company for a period of time.
They don't need much hype, and you don't encounter unprofessional investors in STO as it minimum investment is much higher compared to that of ICO.

Many people are gearing now towards STO's and I was looking for a list to search and peruse through at my leisure and found these: https://coincodex.com/sto-list/

There are not many listed here but it gives us an indication of perhaps what is to come and what will later on be more on trend as it were.

Here is another list that has some STO's listed as well:  https://www.listico.io/sto/list

I am looking through some really interesting ones and the POS merchant one has caught my eye so I will check it out later when I get more time on my hands.

ICO and STO actually have great chances. But in other way. Now it makes no sense at all to try to invest in STO or ICO if you have not previously looked at the meaning of the project and the idea of ​​the project.
