A lot has been said about IEO. Many seeing IEO as a way out in cryptocurreny, hmmmm..... is that it? don't be fooled. Many of the so-called big exchange have enriched themselves through IEO. Why do you think some projects from nowhere conducted their IEO on these so-called big exchange, it will shock you to know that a reasonable amount of these tokens are going to the exchange and the exchange is ready to dump on you the moment the token is listed or after some pump. They encourage you to hodl but they will not hodl. It is all about pump and dump. You may want to argue because you have benefited one out of many times. Have you asked yourself, how many were able to buy at IEO, they want you to come and buy on the exchange after making it look like a sold out, why sold so little at IEO when you have buck of it in store? Professional scam.....Believe me, there is more to IEO on big exchange than you can imagine. Be wise.

Exactly. I don't get why people seem to feel like that IEOs will protect them from all of the scams in the cryptospace all of a sudden - they won't.

And it is this exact attitude that makes IEOs even more dangerous, because of the fact that people are more comfortable and complacent with their investments they no longer conduct their due diligence when researching the project they're investing in.

You still got to remember that IEOs are for profit for both the developer AND the exchange, and both of them have vested interest in pushing the token to investors to the greatest extent. Investor protection is still extremely low.

I think it's just a matter of knowledge in investing. It's just that investors hasn't learned anything from all the scams that happened during the ICO days. IEO is a really good way to make profit if you know what you are doing. It's just that those who doesn't know what they are doing, they are the target which in my opinion the majority of the investors are like that. Only target that the early birds feeds on. That's the reason why I stayed away from new projects the moment I realized the system in IEO. I might miss the train and the food.

Yes we can't set aside the possibility that even they are listed on good exchange it will not guarantee that they will not fool investors later on. There's really no assurance when it comes to investing in ICO and IEO majority of the projects are only based on speculation and no products to show.

Well, that's what IEOs are, at the beginning you'll see a massive pump and dump. That's why people liked to join them. Since you could ride the train for the first few hours and then just dump it all. Even though the few IEOs back ago were not so much succeed in price pump. And cannot survived once it hits the exchange. Whether if it's an ICO or IEO they're all the same, we're like betting our money in them. And since IEO is more popular nowadays, people chose them over ICO regardless if it's a scam one or not as long as it has the word of IEO in it, everything's good for them.

All crowdfunding models have their own disadvantages and risks. In fact, when you invest in an ICO and an IEO, you are participating in a game, the winner will win the money of the loser. it's not a game anyone can win, so if you lose you can only blame yourself.

Yeah most of crowdfunding in crypro are having a high risk. Even it's ICO or IEO or STO they will be a high risk for the investors and that's why most of investors are just aiming for quick profits after crowdfunding end, they will likely to sell all their tokens that they get for quick profits and move on to another project rather than holding the token from the previous project

There are many investment options out there, and you can always buy an IEOs tokens after the price has had a chance to balance out and accumulate then if it has good long term potential and isn't just a quick pump and dump scheme

Nowadays, is the best time to buy since market is so cheap. IEO is another way to invest but it needs time to study the kind of token that can be huge potential to increase in the future. The most challenging is to hold your different altcoins for long period of time and will able to wait until it will pump again tremendously.

many people are less interested in investing in new projects, they prefer to invest in coins that are already available in the market and have a good reputation. many people choose to reduce the risk so that their capital is not lost with the many cases of fraud

Yes, I very much agree with your argument. As we already know that IEO tokens or coins are only limited to pump and dump. Some people are fortunate to say it is a good coin or token, but some others say it is a bad or scam because they do not get any profit. If it continues like this, I can't imagine the world of crypto only being used to profit quickly and a crime that is very neat and educated.

Changing the game

not all IEO scams end, I've experienced IEO scams, when I bought their tokens and it turns out when I opened trading (deposit and withdraw) the price went down far below the IEO price and it happened in a large market, I thought why IEO why which is the latest crowfunding system from ICO ended not good. But I continue to follow the development of IEO and there are also some IEO that are successful. From that I conclude that everything that happens in crypto especially with regard to crypto investment must be true and misuse when the system is successful. In the past many ICOs are successful but many are also Scams, maybe you can say ICO is Professional Scam, now the IEO era, there are successful and scams, then the perception arises that IEO is a Professional Scam, and the last IMO, this bus is also a professional profit and professional scam. Let alone in crypto which is completely anonymous in real life there are also 2 types, Scam and not Scam. That is a reality that we must accept and is normal.

I agree with your opinion, although I can not prove it. I started thinking about this after Binance's last sale, and I thought why not. Already, in IEO, HYIP is very high and an excellent opportunity to make profit. Besides, not only that, there are other factors. It is also debatable that after these sales, the prices are falsely pumped and the value decreases again after time passes. Most IEOs on major exchanges are for profit in a short time.

Yes, most IEO are potential scam and have fully bankrupred nvestors. It's just a few out if many are good. I wouldn't say it is a potential scam but it is full of scams and discouraging now. I do wish we get something pretty soon to supers or monitor IEO it will be so good.

Whether it's fraud or what, the proof is that many benefits, right? of course, we have to note here for trusted global exchange, don't try to join ieo on shitexchange, it's very risky.
Although previously there was a private sale with a certain discount, IEO is still in demand to take advantage of market interest. With this interest, it will be easier to run the desired price formation scenario. Look at the following picture.

The participants are always many, we only need to take advantage of opportunities with the right combination of timings.

You are right on target Grin

. Some sort of evolution, right? It doesn't matter as long as it can attract interest and can build trust, isn't a large community with a unique niche an opportunity?

IEOs are in 2019 what ICOs were in 2017—albeit to a less degree.

As with anything new and highly hyped in the cryptocurrency industry, they were obviously hyped up to a huge degree by the exchange platforms themselves. Binance in particular was notorious for this, hyping up its Launchpad projects by providing a variety of incentives for BNB holders and high-volume traders in particular.

IEO is very well organized to manipulate the price.

This can be an example of how the agreement that happened between the exchange site and binance.
https://www.theblockcrypto.com/post/44837/binance-accepted-250000-to-list-blockstacks-token-despite-claiming-there-was-no-listing-fee

But again, the investors were educated to get the pump their chance to double their money. The problem is the agreement between the exchange site and project happens internally. This must be changed and the average tokens distributed to the exchange for the crowdsale was around 7% - 15% which totally non-sense allocation.

It was actually then I trusted IEO but now I have zero my mind towards that but frankly speaking there are good projects out there but financially handicap. The only place to bounce and be known is through IEO and sadly they are rekt by high token demands from exchanges. I do not really trust IEO that much.

Maybe exchanges dump tokens because they are just promoting it so they will take out profits as soon as possible, investors are also going to the same right? So if exchanges doing it means they are scammers!

Any kind of advertisement is not for investors benefit so understand the risk of that investment before spending any hard earned money.

Have said it in some posts that the sentiment in the market is bad generally and IEO may not be the escape route. However, IEO from top exchanges have better chances of making good profit investors when market revives. Bitcoin takes a great percentage of daily trade both in volume and fund, the high fund movement cause the FOMO. Altcoin season will be available and the IEO project on the top exchanges with series of developments at the moment will be more rewarding.

They, the founders of the market have be seen the opportunity to make IEO when the ICO has begun to die.
So they look for opportunities to benefit their own market and make IEO programs,but actually this program is almost the same as ICO. It's just more able to gain public trust because it directly list in the market. Not like ICO, must wait for the founder of the project to find markets for product listing.

You're right! IEO is now showing a very bad result. I myself have watched many times how after IEO the price of a crypto asset went down without any reason. Who could lower her like that? Of course, bounty participants, many will say, but the participants have not yet received their tokens, then who? The fact is that the project administrators themselves hide the fact of a drain from the side of the exchange where IEO was, but only encourage the community to say that everything will work out soon.
