Not much difference but IEOs does get an advantage of guaranteed listing by the exchange that is hosting the IEO. Plus they save lots by not running a bounty campaign.

I think IOCs is just the new form of ICO. It comes at a time when the market of ICOs is on the verge of collapse. So it definitely aims to retain the market of ICO. It aims to provide more investment security, thus attracting more investors. Offering coins on exchanges can give much assurance that the project will definitely list on exchanges in coming days. As a result, investors are much eager to participate in it.

For a more or less reliable verification of the team that wants to issue its new tokens, the administration of the exchanges should examine the original documents of this team and have the authority to check them in more depth. Such powers exchanges do not have. This check can only be done by law enforcement agencies of states. Therefore, I think that in the near future we will face scandals with fraudulent IEO already on the exchanges. In any case, the exchanges will be able to accept no more than a tenth of the submitted projects and the rest will be forced to collect funds in the ICO format.

I am going to agree with you to some extent but not to the fullest because ICO cannot totally be compared with IEO.

Unlike ICO, IEO is referred to as initial exchange offering, whereby exchanges that has gained name already carry out crowd funding for companies instead of them carrying out themselves in the form of ICO, the good thing about this is that this exchanges have built trust with investors over time and would not want to lose that trust for any reason whatsoever, so the make sure all projects pass through KYC process.

Still it is a crowd funding so it is has the same goal but as said as OP it is an upgrade.  Though IEO had been practiced in the early years but in different name.  There are several tokens that conduct their crowdfunding in an exchange way back years ago so this IEO method is not new to the industry, just the name to make a new hype I guess which somehow successful for the first projects.  Let us see if the following IEO will be as successful as the first one.

I would say that today IEO doesn’t really bring anything new in it, I think it’s best to create some kind of barriers for developers who attract investment in cryptocurrency projects. This is probably the easiest thing to do.
The IEO brought new features, fortunately. If you can analyze the market situations then the differences will be clear in front of your eyes. Attracting new investors is the job of bounty teams, so let them think about it.

Due to the large trading volumes and the number of traders, the price from a great height will fall for a long time, and gives time to the project for development, IEO has some little advantages.

I think there are many improvements. The first is that the cap for each IEO is usually not too big, only about $ 1 million or less, which helps attract investors because they believe in the ability to pump prices after the official listing.
Secondly, the IEO pledges token will be listed on the exchange, unlike ICO when we don't know about it.

I have no doubts after a few observation but ieos are just an upgrade how ?

Ieos that successfully sold out on binance bittrex and kucoin, can they sold out on latoken? Or dobi trades  ?

Main focus is; in ieos hundreds get to participate , then after ieo is over; it leaves thousands of people eager to get in and be a part of the movement

This causes an upturn in price for few days; then the usual dip that follows ico token after listing takes place too

So what’s the difference exactly ??

NB: just my thoughts ; feel free to modify, suggest and contribute
Project team looking for better way to make money that is why IEOs were in the trend for now and it is same as ICO,if a project is good the people invest on it but when it is promoted by exchanges then chances of getting traffic to that project is high.

Its an upgrade though. You may not see any difference to it since it both just waste your money when price drops sudenly after the IEO.  Sooner the scammers will alzo upgrade skills. Years from now this IEO will also fade and another trend will follow til we may go back to IPO instead. Or probably we'd soon see trading software where from there we can be connecting to crowdfunding platform.

We should call it as crypto hot trend. We have some hot trend so far.
- exchange hot trend: that switch most profitable coins from Poloniex to Bittrex, and then Binance.
- ICO hot trend.
- exchange's coin or token launched with massive promotions (give aways) hot trend.
- and now, IEO hot trend.

Yes IEO is just an upgrade but it is way better in fundraising part and it's has better trusty than ICO due to been lunched on trusted exchanges,it won't be easy for scam artists to mindle with,i think IEO is way better, investors need some sort of trusted source to investment and IEO does the job well

There are consequences for every action
IEO is really not much different from ICO. But I think that IEO is better than ICO. This removes many of the risks associated with ICO. Therefore, I think that IEO has a positive effect on ICO.
With IEO investors become less attentive and completely trust in the verification analysis of the exchange and its reputation. I will cite a recent example of the IEO by scam's team on IDAX.




One big facts I cited unattended to
Investors have stopped doing necessary research information; and investing based on trust on the exchange platform

It isn’t safe that way
Dyor always ico ieo or sto

The main benefit from IEOs is that they are supervised by the exchanges but that does not  guarantee the
high ROI. I agree with you that they can be over hyped after listing and I would not touch them for a certain period.

Yes you are right entirely. But from another angle, IEOs (at least for now) has proven to be safer, as there is no chance for any scam project to pass the verification of these exchanges. That is to say also, it is wise to take note of the exchange conducting the IEO to ensure safety of funds.
Lastly, if IEOs will be properly managed, it will be better than ICOs in the long run.

I also think that this is just some kind of new way of cheating users, but this method is covered by large exchanges.

According to yours, such big exchanges as Binance, Bittrex, Huobi, OKEX will resort to deceiving users through such a mechanism as ICO (IEO), according to you, they will risk their reputation so much. Honestly, I can't even imagine it. Even if the projects launched by them are frankly bad, investors are all exactly getting tokens and a chance to earn.


Well I can sense that you prefer the chance to earn rather than consider the damage ahead
I advise you always trade smart and smarter

Lition ico was about 2x few hours back; icos are still alive

Sooner or later; we can judge the tricks by ourselves

They are same once ICO scam burst out , scammers need new way to pull money out of people so hence came IEO, just like ICO market got busted after few years , this IEO market will also get busted within next few years once people see no real progress in projects. The only benefit anybody can get for now is speculators and scammers , if you are a good one , sieze the maximum out of it.
ICO was too loosed and because it was not regulated, and you and I know that where there is no law, there is no sin, you can’t compare something that is being regulated to something not regulated.

IEO might not be completely regulated, but at least it still has the involvement of third party who can control what is being displayed to the public by verifying it first before publishing, Scammers might try all their best to penetrate the IEO market but the only way they can succeed is if money hungry exchanges too gets involved in IEO.

Provided IEO I still being controlled and operate by top exchanges such as Binance, Bitmex, Huobi and many other ones, I doubt if scam will be able to penetrate.

Once a man, twice a child!
No, not really. There is a big wall of difference between them. Apart from the name and where they are conducted - IEO on exchanges, ICO on open ground, the first is more organized and secured. I would participate in IEO and never in ICO.

The issue of price rise and dump after IEO is a normal thing in business. It's called profit taking. People sell off when they reach their profit target. It's not the same thing as what we have in ICO where devs abandon projects.
