The difference between ICO and IEO is not that big. The reliability of projects that will be better controlled by the exchanges interested in them is slightly increased. And so everything remains the same, you will have to think all the same by yourself.

Yes, upgrading from a less secure ICON is safe. The point is the IEO is safer than ICO. Because Exchanger has sorted out really good projects. And our risk of losing money will be lower than ICO, which is sometimes not a listing at all on an exchanger.
The exchange itself will give some assurance about the project, they will surely list it after the IEO's  little assurance is much better than nothing at  all, that's the difference but the concept still their funding projects but this time listing is an assurance unlike with ICO's where there's no concrete plans adding the project after.

I think that they have their own features and I believe they have finally discovered the problem, why people were not ready to take part in ICOs during the last year. They only needed a guarantee that those tokens are going to be listed on a good exchange and IEOs are solving this problem.

There are consequences for every action
Totally no difference and a lot of similarities which makes it odd
But if ieos can find consistency in price, volume and fulfillment of project roadmap and whitepaper

Then maybe we can consider it fruitful

The difference between ICO and IEO is not that much but IEO is just safer and that's why they will always get tokens sold out because many investors are jumping in ,I guess ICO has let many investors down enough

In my own opinion there is no much difference rather than the team behind the project will pass through series of investigation so as to ensure they are legit thus reducing scams. With the way IEOs are going they might end up being another thing all together.

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 ??

Yes! Exactly, there is not so much difference between ICO and IEO, the only difference I can identify is that IEO are being regulated by popular exchanges that have already made name for themselves and have gotten lots of investors that might be interested in investing in this projects, though I don't see this as a very big progress but a way that exchanges can now perform a very good exist scam, I just hope that we don't experience such in the crypto space, because all hope will be lost.

Well, thinking of the price in the market, it may be true, the price after IEO is over maybe quite the same with what happened to ICO. However, this crowdfunding type of IEO may also give benefit different from the ICO.
They are listing their token or coin on the certain exchange, right? When they are listing, they may also fulfill the KYC process and some regulation as regulated in the exchange.
That is why it will add the trust that their team may not be fake. Of course, it can be one of the ways to avoid scams, moreover, knowing that the coins have been listed on the certain exchange.

The only reason why some IEO were successful in binance and kucion was because the projects are really great but then again price will still plunge when real investors gets in while tokens are readily available in the market. It does happen every time in ICO. I think this is just to cut the bounty hunters out. Right now there are still ICO while IEO also exits so both are still working.
IEO will make bounty hunter sad, good project prefer use their fund to list their projects in reputable exchanges such as binance or another exchanges.its more effective and make investors trust to their projects.

I do not think that ieos will affect bounty hunters; because Blockmason Link, publish protocol, viaz, curestoken and many other projects are doing bounties and also employing ieos crowdfunding method

So I want to believe that; bounty hunters get to promote and select the best bounties always
that's indeed and we have seen how top network was doing something good and that was using bounty campaign too. those people are sceptical with it must try to do a lot of research. It looks like they are still feeling doubt with it and that's it. Bounty will have always needed.

I do not see any difference either. Both the highly glorified IEO and ICO are the same. Right now, IEO is overhyped and abused. Soon, a different story will be heard about it.

Actually there is some sense here. IEO is just ICO in another dimension. The only big difference is that, if it's coming from a reputable exchange like Binance, Okex, Huobi, Kucoin etc, they will do proper due diligence to ensure they list a legit project, they are best at that. Now see the twist in the IEO/ICO thing 👇
Recently, some projects which already launched ICO and didn't do well, or are still struggling with ICO changed to IEO. Good examples include X-block and Gemstra. I also observed that some exchanges like LATOKEN list IEOs too much, making it look like a normal ICO thing. Even mushroom exchanges started listing IEOs Lol 😂,  it's well.

It is the problem we currently face at the moment. Every exchange wants to cash in, especially through their coin. Recently, Bilaxy launched its native token to join the frenzy. I hope they don't deface IEOs sooner than expected

This exactly represents my thoughts. I don't particularly see and differences except that in ICO, investors loose funds to project developers and in IEO, investors loose funds to exchange team who buy up the tokens and dump on members of the exchange who didn't get in. The end point is still loss for investors.

This is the very reason why you should not buy the hype surrounding an IEO project.
As everyone already observed, they were just sold in few seconds or minutes, leaving us stunned by such situation.
Who were able to buy that fast? Is there a loophole in this system? Probably yes, or probably not.
But if you are a buyer, don't buy the hype but look for more concrete reason why you should join the bandwagon.
Look for the technology that they are offering. Do they have the capability to deliver their promises?
And now, we are slowly seeing that not all IEO projects are going to be successful. Many have already dropped their price from their IEO price.
Again, we will be deceived by this new trend if we are not smart enough to tell which one is the real deal and which one is not.

Conducting an initial coin offering through an exchange might sound a little safer because it addresses one key issue that plighted many an ICO; the option to sell the tokens at a later date. Coins were often sold through an ICO with only promises that they would later be available on exchanges. In some cases, tokens offered through an ICO were never listed on exchanges. So even if it's an upgrade to ico tricks,  it's still safer for investors.

IEO is an evolution of ICO. It's easier, more investor friendly and more modern if you like. That's strange that exchanges didn't create this product before and ICOs were dominating for the whole 2018 year.

I think the difference is that Exchanges before listing IEO on their exchange check ID's before listing them and some other adresses , as exchange risk reputation by listing projects on IEO's . Ofcourse it does not say that project can't be a scam , but i think its alot better than participation in ICO's Smiley

IEOs are simply another way carefully packaged to get investors buying and investing again. They may have come with some much better packaging and presentation but they are simply no different than ICOs. Sooner or later IEOs will find themselves where ICOs is at the moment. My advice is for people to thread cautiously and be mindful of how and what they invest.
