You are right now no one personally research about the project, almost every one just look at the exchange where IEO plan to be conducted, It is really harmful for individuals and for crypto market too.
Why is it harmful to the crypto market? I think it will help a lot for this market. Eliminate ICO scammer, help investors make profit from investment. Now we do not need to study too many projects because the IEO projects in large exchanges are mostly good and potential projects. 
Topic: IEO's has cause more harm done good (Read 933 times)
Well, one thing I strongly believe is that there is nothing with an advantage that doesn't have a disadvantage, we are know that IEO was introduced into the crypto sphere for a good reason, being that we had a lot of scammers in the ICO space making away with participants money everyday making them give up on crypto as a whole, I know that people don't really make their research about project anymore since they believe that the IEO is being conducted on trusted exchanges but I think it's a good thing that we are not being scammed anymore as we used to be, I believe something better would be introduced in the future to make users focus on studying what the project is about.
The arrival of IEO's has cause more harm done good in the sense that many do not seek to make their own research about projects that's are involve in IEO, everyone is made to believe the exchanges are in control and are bound to think the exchanges are in best position to know better and hence expect that the due deligence be done by them, but trust me most of this exchanges are rather soiling the space and aiding most of this projects to mislead investors....

I would agree and also disagree. For one, you cannot blame other people for your own personal failure to do the right thing. In the crypto world, its a silent rule that everyman for himself and every invention or initiative geared towards making the market a better place should be welcome with open hands just like the IEO initiative amongst others. Eventually, the market is still evolving and we should be ready to evolve with and make the most out of it.
yes, because all the crowfundings on crypto are always same there must be some losses and for this ieo alone it brings huge losses because many ieo get tens of millions of dollars, but it proved to be a scam, but this is not too severe compared to ico in 2017/2018, and if you want to join ieo now maybe you should do a very thorough due diligence if you don't want to get a scam project.
IEOs are atleast not turning into scam, so I do not think IEOs have made more harm to the community. Token price appreciation is not guaranteed either in IEO or in ICO, it depends upon demand and supply but atleast IEOs are real projects and getting listed on exchanges, on the other hand many ICOs are taking investors money and running away. IEOs are atleast helping investors to get back their investment confidence. Its investors duty to properly research the project before making any investment decision.
Yes, some of ieo's are misleading their investors and they gone as a failure project! and investors loosing their money which invested over this kind of shit project!
IEO is a new idea for making quick profits to early investors. I think that's better than ICO. IEO is entirely controlled by the exchanger. the team only operates their products.
systemically and how it works maybe IEO is indeed better and newer. but in success, IEO has not been able to make as many investments into the crypto market as ICO has done. it's very difficult, and maybe it will take a long time for IEO.
False, IEOs is giving many project teams a second chance to raise funds for project development. IEOs are better than ICOs. and they are much needed. We learn when a crypto project fails, It helps to create a better crypto space in the long run.
ieo's for me is good when it comes to liquidation because the company's coin/token will have a ready platform to buy or sell when the crowdfunding conclude. For me, it did not affect the way i analyze projects, we need to be careful when choosing a project to invest into, just because it has a ready market does not mean that people can now be lazy in doing their own research but i also believe about what u said that lots of people are not doing their research properly anymore bcoz of ieo's.
Big exchanges are doing own good reasearches which may be better than yours. So i think that IEO is a good thing
IEO is a new idea for making quick profits to early investors. I think that's better than ICO. IEO is entirely controlled by the exchanger. the team only operates their products.
IEOs have actually done more good than harm. But it is true that due diligence is not being done by the investors towards researching further on projects as they leave all to the exchange to do. However in terms of security, I think IEO has reinforced trust in crowdfunding for crypto projects
That's purely an accusation to hear, because we haven't yet witnessed how IEO works right now. So don't judge until there is really a proof of the current situation. We shoul be more observant to the actual outcome and don't ever speculate negatively until there's definite judgement over it.
In fact, only 20% of IEO projects can help investors to make big profits and IEO investment is less risky than ICO investment so I believe that IEO is still an investment trend that people want in this market. Personally, I still prefer to invest in IEO because it makes it easier for me to earn double profit in a short time and if lucky, making a profit x5 easy if the IEO is listed at big exchange.
I also prefer IEO. Hate it if you guys want but the fact that huge exchanges are the ones who makes the due diligence for us on the projects before getting listed is a big YES for me. Didn't you guys realize that the numbers of projects are getting flitered thanks to IEOs? In ICOs, 100 and above projects every months that you need to do your own research and considering the current situation, nobody gets roi in it anymore makes it hard to attract investor. While in IEO, you only monitor 10 or less projects every month if you only count those high-volume exchanges that gives 2x-20x returns. So I don't totally agreee cause IEOs more harm.
Maybe the op is pointing to some unsuccesful ieo's that is runned by new exchanges . this type of ieo's can do harm to the investors because they could loose thier money in an instant as soon as they fall for this trap . but the rest of the ieo's are already proven to be safe and profitable like what you guys said . we wont know , maybe op is also one of the victim of scammy ieo's and he already loose big , this could be the reason why he accused ieo's so bad

I think it is not considered harmful. It is beneficial for our economy. Those who like to invest without understanding, they will suffer losses and that cash flow will return to the pockets of smart people.Agreed or Disagree? Argue it out
After that, the more intelligent people get richer, the more they will grow and will help the society with charitable activities later.
For those who fail, they will be humiliated and motivated to study.

I sense same in your direction of thinking but the issue am having is the way those ieo coin got pumped just to mislead the investors which we all know the listing of those coins are not guarantee their best as a good coin but shit.
Some exchange has capitalize on this to pump their own coin regardless of what the coin has to offer and also used the opportunity to make the coin believe they are the best and yet have nothing to offer.

Disagree, because it's impossible for someone to risk their funds only to a well-known exchange place, besides that there must be investors doing personal research for each project whose IEO takes place.
l always repeat and stick to the point that, IEO projects give the most confidence to investors than ICO projects. Most investors don't make research themselves, it happens because of negligence. They believe projects but as mentioned above they never make enough research and read the whitepaper, analyzes by the ICO rating sites. They are only interested in making more BTC on the next pump, because of that most of these projects mislead investors.
The team of so many projects usually claim that IEO will bring about development. Although, it is one of the easiest and fastest means of fundraising for most projects struggling to raise fund. However, some investors have really lost fund on projects that that do not have real use cases.
IEO doesn't make any project better, it just put it on an exchange to give faster liquidity. Some ieos on binance are over hyped but that's all. there are many ieos of bad and scam projects around, everyday a see a new one...
There is point in your post, some crypto enthusiasts rely 100% on the fact that the said exchange must have done all research and verification on the project. Personal due diligence is necessary because you should understand the project and have reasons for buying in. Generally, I don't think IEO has done more harm than good anyway, IEO has rekindled the lost hope for many blockchain start-ups in raising funds and also for investors in reducing scam.
As once said, the IEO is not the next way to recognize the success of a project or feel safer without it, it can also cause dependence on new investors. it's like a double-edged sword. need to be alert. Finally, the IEO is also capable of a literal backlash.
Too many people rushed to invest in IEOs and they sincerely think that if the exchanges check and monitor these projects, it will be easy to avoid scammers. In reality, nothing has changed - if you compare them with ICO, you will see that these new projects are just their younger siblings, with the same risks. Do not be too risky to lose everything that you earned.
therefore never blame anyone if someone loses in the IEO, because every action you have taken is of course the result of your own research. and also never heard of FUD because it will not guarantee that you will get good results. the next day make sure that every action you take, you have thought about the risks first.

Today there are many exchangers that are only like service providers for the developer team to raise funds for the development of their projects through the IEO path. For investors, ICO and IEO should be the same because everything depends on the project is good or not. Therefore, in my opinion the IEO of a large exchanger like binance is the main choice in investing
IEO does not bring any harm, only small exchange offers too many IEO, causing many people to invest in IEO in these exchange losses. But see those who invest in the IEO of big exchange, they don't lose at all.
In the future I'm sure many great Exchange will receive the IEO project. Indeed, The problem is now a lot of IEO done in small market so that investors hesitate to buy the coins/tokens.
IEO has fix more damages in crypto space so far,lack of trust issues when investing in ICO has reduced alot and investors confidence are been direct towards top exchanges now,binance is a good example of how successful IEO projects are.
If you were lucky to invest in one of the Binance IEO you won't be saying this, just only one IEO will yield you a lot of profit, there are also lots of good IEO projects on other exchange, in as much as you do your research before investing you won't go wrong
I not full agree with your argument, I myself sometimes look for more information on the IEO, especially regarding the exchanger that contributed to the coin listing. Every subject has a negative side and I think how it can impact depending on investors or users to be more careful in investing, this is common things for investor.

I used to trust these exchanges but these IEO are not great project to invest compare to what the ICO is offering back 2017, we really need to do our own research it has become FOMO why people are so much into IEO but they are quick to get out.
Personally, I don't agree to this. Whether IEO or ICO, it is up to the investors to actually do research and understand what he or she is putting money into. Just like ICOs, there are good IEOs and bad ones. As a Crypto investor, DYOR before investing.
First of all, I treat the two types of projects with respect. There are still good ICOs out there but as of now, IEOs are just popping off to the people because they guarantee that the coin can get listed. And it is really hard to see ICOs do the same thing. IEOs open better opportunities when it comes to investing.
a lot of people trying ieo, and maybe they move from ico to ieo because ieo really cool from famous exchanger and already placed on them. so, no need to worry about 'when exchanger'. it doesnt mean ico worse than ieo, sometime ico price is better than ieo. but, ieo give more trust to bounty hunter

They are more passive in finding information and they only care about profit more than their true value. When fomo psychology happens badly after that crypto is traded some people are willing to own it at a very high price and they never return to the original price to pay back. There were a number of projects that had ICOs last year, but the following year continued to sell IEO at a cheaper price to find a way to create a volume for that crypto. Their goal is to create liquidity for their crypto. IEO has become a great tool to attract capital. We need to be cautious in investment. Agreed or Disagree? Argue it out
Every exchange that is holding an IEO risks with its reputation cause the task of filtering IEO projects is supposed to be in exchange's responsibility, right? So, exchange should choose wisely not to lose its users' trust.
l do agree with you opinion. It seems to me it is improbable can not be possible without risk. There is always risk. The core is not risk, it is something so misleading and it is not honorable. l would like to draw attention to the fact, more than that they use their power to pursue their selfish interests. That is really.

I maybe not agree with you. IEO is nothing just buying tokens from exchanger by buyer that was did by team of a project. Here also buyer must research about that tokens future, roadmap. whitepaper. etc. On the other hand IEO support team to do strongly work behind roadmap without any tension i think so that buyer can buy tokens.
As once said, the IEO is not the next way to recognize the success of a project or feel safer without it, it can also cause dependence on new investors. it's like a double-edged sword. need to be alert. Finally, the IEO is also capable of a literal backlash.
agree because i think it is a bit dangerous because most exchanges don't care about investors, they prefer to profit by using iOo and they always launch garbage project, but this only applies to some exchanges and not everything is like this, if you want to participate in IEO you have to be a little vigilant .
I do not know that you have lost something. For me, learn more about the IEO project and the platform accepts it to buy. I have more than one profit and I'm happy with the IEO. You should only join the IEO on major trading platforms, such as Binance. IEO is much better than ICO.
IEO is a top choice for risk lovers because this is an investment that can help you earn huge profits and if you are more lucky, you will be able to profit x10 in a very short time. I participated in 3 IEO projects at Binance exchange and felt very good because I could sell at very high prices at this exchange. In addition Binance, you can choose Okex, Huobi, Gate, Kucoin to join the IEO because these are exchanges with very good IEO projects.
As before, people did not study the project and invested in ICO, and now they are investing in IEO without studying the project. It did not change anything. But the study of the project is definitely always necessary. It is often important to see what assets we have, and whether it is possible to extract additional profit from this.
Another thing is that participation in the IEO on the trusted exchanges gives more confidence that we will not be deceived.

Of course, I strongly disagree with what you say, IEO does not cause much damage, IEO is certainly better than ICO, even more, positive in any way.
I think it is wrong to go for investment or bounty projects without conducting a research. IEO is just an advanced form of ICO and there may not be any guarantee that a project launching IEO is genuine. So do your research.
I don't agree with you sorry IEO as fix more damaged that ICO has done to crypto world,thanks to biggest exchanges reputations if not investors will still be afraid of investing a penny
I do not totally agree with you because IEO has not really stopped cryptocurrency enthusiasts quit making personal researches on the IEO they seek to invest rather, it has also helped newbies in making investment decisions without thinking hard. And finally, the security of funds it offers cannot be over emphasised.
Maybe not totally as you’ve said. There are existing and known exchanges already that are also conducting IEO and to think that they are already established and trusted exchanges, that fact is also making investors confident in their investment. They would think that legitimacy is sure since they already knew the exchange so they would research less about it.
any form of getting paid to release a useless token has always been harmful to the whole ecosystem. it started with copy coins with huge premines and then evolved slowly to other forms with its latest being ICOs and then that started to change name to other things such as IEO.
in the end they are all giving a large amount of money to incompetent people who are incapable of doing anything but creating a copy of another useless token on another platform. that easy money kills the whole market and more importantly kills the innovation that is the only reason the altcoin market began!

To be honest, I don't quite agree with your assessment, as long as you stick to the top cryptocurrency exchange(which we all know) and invest in only projects listed in their launchpad, you would not be losing any money in their IEO, atleast that has been the case so far.
The problem is that people are just generally impatient and would jump on any IEO they see even if it's in an obscure exchange that nobody knows or cares about.
I agree with you that this statement may not be appropriate because some people have differences in developing their projects through the IEO. But it depends on ourselves because the IEO provides a platform and opens opportunities, I know not everything is always good and of course there are risks but we also cannot blame the IEO completely. The problem is that people are just generally impatient and would jump on any IEO they see even if it's in an obscure exchange that nobody knows or cares about.
I agree to you that most people especially those new comers in the field of investment in cryptocurrency are exactly doing that thing.
But this is not apply for all as there are still so many wise men in the field. i believe IEO will wake up the sleeping giant of cryptocurrency.

From your subject word, i disagree
IEOS judgement depends on your experience on and with ieos
So instead of judging directly that ieos are bad; first determine what exactly you are doing wrong.

No research is done on the side of the investors right from the ICO days. That's why we keep falling for shits and scams. But with IEO, I doubt if the harm can be as bad as in the ICO days. Although IEO will have its own disadvantages but it is still very much better than ICO.

Since this exchanges take over on launching the new projects in the crypto market. ICO market is completely down and many of the people never take steps to research about the project even though it has worst project background because it is listed on IEO of top exchanges. Please always think for long term investment if you believe it is possible then you can do it.

Let me ask a simple question; the harms caused by ICOs can it be equated to any harm you think in IEOs? I think the answer is NO. In IEOs there are no scams only risks which to an extent is understandable. Exchanges only verify projects and team in there own way but can't guarantee long term sustainability of any project, thus left for the investors to do their due diligence.
Scam is possible if IEO is conducted on a new exchange that was created specifically for this purpose. But if you participate in IEO only on the top exchanges, then only the investment risks remain, because no one can guarantee the success of the project in the future.

IEO does not bring any harm, only small exchange offers too many IEO, causing many people to invest in IEO in these exchange losses. But see those who invest in the IEO of big exchange, they don't lose at all.
A lot of exchanges are doing their own research before announcing any IEO, at least Binance is doing so and there were no scam IEOs detected till now. But Bittrex has almost failed to launch a legit project as their first IEO. Luckily, Bittrex cancelled it few hours before the launch. But in general you are right, people are not caring about project details if they see Binance IEO.

that happened in a few small exchanges like IDAX, Exmarket, Lbank, Coineal, ...Agreed or Disagree? Argue it out
But for large exchanges like Binance and Huobi, they won't do it. They will definitely pump and keep prices high for the projects listed on them.
because they are important to the level of prestige, the money they spend to raise the prices of IEO projects will make investors more confident in them and will become their true investors.
therefore, for projects supported by large exchanges, don't hesitate to invest in it, anyway, its price is still higher than the IEO price.
The difference between ICO and IEO was only the inhance security of our funds, since the our funds are deposited in the exchange platform that act like a escrow we can sure that it is safe unless we invested in a shady exchange. The risk was the same wethere its ICO or IEO so choose the right project on the right exchange.
I disagree, either IEO or ICO as an investor it's your responsibility to do your own research. IEO hasn't done any arm to investor than what ICO. it's job of individual to invest wisely and not by hype.
Every rational investor must investigate each project carefully before investing. Whether, they are doing IEO or ICO. I have seen IEO projects that failed likewise ICO projects. In the same vain, i have seen IEO and ICO project that succeeded. The bottom-line is do your appraisal right.
I don't agree with your statement, for me IEO is quite realistic and security is maintained. there is no element of harming or damaging the credibility of any bank.
Actually I much more prefer to have my KYC done at an exchange than some random project. Who might sell my information. Sure some exchanges can't be trusted. But if you are already using the exchange in the first place than it's much more convenient to participate in the IEO.

Well IEO has caused more harm to investors who think every exchanges are to be trusted without looking at the reputation of the exchange and the team behind the IEO project. well some IEO are doing very well. But never patronize a shitty fake volume exchanges.
I agree that some exchanges don't conduct a thorough study of projects before IEO. Therefore, users themselves should study - project site, whitepaper and development team.
I don't want to debate the IEO issue, it's true that most crypto lovers believe in the IEO program created by crypto projects, but they also analyze it first before believing it, because not all IEOs are good and the IEO also doesn't guarantee complete success.
It's almost impossible to determine how much harm IEO did to their buyers, but compared to ICO, IEO provide another layer of security which is probably better.
ICOs are really easy to do and the downside is a lot of scammer use that to scam a lot of people and then disappear after that. IEO, on the other hand, will also affect the image of the exchange so not every project would be able to do it. Eventually, a good project will do their IEO on a good exchange (though it's relative) and those scammy IEO will also run their IEO on a scammy and poor exchange, so most of the time, it's easier to distinguish good project and bad project.
However, that's a bit sad because it means you need to depend on a 3rd party to decide where your investment should go instead of using your own brain (not everyone of course).

I do not agree with your point of view because token projects are now deciding to list their tokens on one or multiple exchanges directly instead of setting up a “traditional” ICO and then hoping and praying investors will find them in the whirlwind of the marketplace. IEO built trust among the investors because in ICO there are lots of fake and scammy projects. https://tokensale.moozicore.com/
Investors and exchanges are making good money from the IEO than the project teams envisaged, Now it is considered an entry market pump and dump system. However, some exchanges dont take enough time to do research in some projects but most early investors get out quickly than expected, bittrex almost fell victim of scam project with the first IEO, which shows anyone can be scammed in this space regardless. A street smart trader will think of making more bitcoin than thinking of the project, get-in get-out idea
I feel the issue of making research is left on the shoulder of individual and has nothing to do with IEO, we all must take responsibility for making necessary research about a project to know everything about it.
I kinda agree with you. Before I used to take DYOR very very seriously but ever since the IEO came I started acting a bit lazy. I don't do much research into any IEO which are hosted by exchange giants like Huobi and Binance.
I don't think so, everyone is entitled on the risk regardless on what platform they are investing, because in general we are dealing with risk here.
Also, I don't see it's gonna happen that if an investors will risk a big amount like $100,000 they will just invest blindly because such IEO is in good exchange, maybe some are doing that but for sure those who risk a bigger money will do the due diligence.

The IEO project is not always good, but IEO this is different from ICO, the IEO is guaranteed by a market, binance and latoken examples. And we do not need to worry about the funds invested will be lost and taken away. If you want to follow IEO better at the beginning of the launch, because IEO usually does not last long, if 1-2 weeks shows the price is good and stable, but more than that do not expect prices to rise high. Because I experienced this. I hope this helps.
It is totally wrong if you only trust on exchange i know exchanges is also a major part to look but we should do own research before investing in IEO.
currently, i have done my research over an IEO that is Moozicore and found this project is growing rapidly there idea and implementation is also good team has good experience. you can do your own research over this project.

You are wrong,IEO hasn't done any harm than good and only those who blindly invest in IEO will get a negative result,yes many exchanges are misleading people but what about IEO projects from popular exchanges?
Some top exchanges have been successful with the arrival of IEO and still some have fail, let's always look at the two sides, I will not invest in IEO o a website that uses bot and manipulates volume
The arrival of IEO's has cause more harm done good in the sense that many do not seek to make their own research about projects that's are involve in IEO, everyone is made to believe the exchanges are in control and are bound to think the exchanges are in best position to know better and hence expect that the due deligence be done by them, but trust me most of this exchanges are rather soiling the space and aiding most of this projects to mislead investors....

I'd agree to you statements but I don't believe IEO is more harm than good.
IEO had made it easier for the ICO issuers to get to the investors while investors can now easily buy the tokens in an ICO.
Whether or not people research about the project is their individual choice. You can blame something good for stupid people.
I will not agree with the OP. IEO appears to be much better and much safer than ICO. This is one fact we cannot deny. And so on this basis, I would say that IEO has caused more good than harm. If there are people who ended up losing in their IEO investments due to their laziness to investigate the credentials of the projects before investing, that is already beyond the IEO mode of gathering resources. The fault is not on IEO in general but on the part of the investors.
Why should anyone think that nothing can go wrong when an exchange is handling things. We need to give initial exchange something before crucifying it the ieo just barely kicked off.
We do know we have tons of exchanges out there some not even worth to run as an exchange but still does so know more about the exchange rating

I do not agree, an exchange will not only risk its big name for an IEO project, and I am sure every IEO project in an exchange is a project that has been investigated in advance, and investors will not only invest in an IEO project only because where the IEO is implemented, investors will also conduct research first before investing Agreed or Disagree?

I do not totally agree with you because IEO has not really stopped cryptocurrency enthusiasts quit making personal researches on the IEO they seek to invest rather, it has also helped newbies in making investment decisions without thinking hard. And finally, the security of funds it offers cannot be over emphasised.
I have the same thought with you mate, Exchange site try to provide a way to help the newbies to get the easiest to invest in the crypto. not so many people are good in the ICO research. I can take a conclusion if IEO offers more pros than cons. 
analysis is pretty good, I also agree with you, but not all exchangers,
I do not believe the IEO on an exchanger with a small volume or a reputation that is not good, but for exchangers such as huobi, kucoin and binance I am sure they will not arbitrarily choose projects for IEO there, because the stakes are the good name of their exchanger.

Although you have a point but I do not concur with all you said. Even during ICOs there are investors who fails to make their research thus participating in bad ICOs. Same is with IEOs, we shouldn't throw caution to the wind because it is being done on exchanges anyone doing that is left to blame.
funds and tokens are fully controlled by the exchange and there is no interference from the team, if you still doubt you have to follow the IEO in a big exchange. so far the IEO has raised more funds than the ICO.
Complex issue. I do not think that IEO somehow changes the market. It’s just a different tool, don’t give it such a big deal! You are exaggerating. Think again: what has changed in the market over the past 6 months?
You have a point here, most of the investors/crypto enthusiasts are thinking that if the project is launched in Binance it is a legit and good project because the exchange is backing it but that is not the case because the developer of the project is on their own and the exchange is out of it.
How did you know that people decided not to research before investing to it? Maybe some but most investor will still take a look on how the project work especially if it can be a long term investment. Remember, hsving the project into IEO to big exchanges such as binance etc. can be a plus but it doesnt mean that it will be successful.
Actually, whatever the crowdfunding system used, as an investor, we must be more and more careful, smarter, and also wiser. Only because it is an IEO, we should believe at all? Not at all. We must still analyze the projects whole from their ideas, team, until what exchanges to be used for IEO. Beware of scammers. they are still around us.

Your argument is quite reasonable, indeed, after the IEO program, there were many investors who neglected to get to know the project more deeply. but if we look in terms of exchanges, is it possible that they are doing so contamination only for something small, whereas what they get can be much bigger than that dirty thing? Agreed or Disagree? Argue it out
You are right and i agree with you but there is a way out to avoid this situation and that is to participate in IEOs only at top trusted platform like binance because they will never list a bad quality project as they have a lot at stake, even if you analyse all the projects they have listed as IEOs till now all of them are real legit projects and they are performing better than most of the alts.
The existence of ieos have been rewarding and beneficial
It has brought quick profits to both projects and investors
People tend to invest first in ieo before researching

Well i joined and participated in IEO just because of it's quick profit. I rather quickly sell my investment right after the tokens get listed on the exchange. Of course i won't join IEO on bad exchange (low tier) , IEO that i joined are only top tier exchange, such as Binance, Okex, and also Kucoin.
Many investors are after the few bucks profit when in the private or early investor. If they do IEO all the time, where do they put those guys who are willing to send BTC and ETH to the projects who are just into this scheme? IEO is just too transparent for anyone to join to and there are only limited tokens to be sold. I guess some don't wanna let exchanges knew they invest in startups.
Disagree, because it's impossible for someone to risk their funds only to a well-known exchange place, besides that there must be investors doing personal research for each project whose IEO takes place.

When we understand that exchanges are here for their profits then we don't trust them upto this level.Agreed or Disagree? Argue it out
Anyway the hype or the blind trust will just stay for few months after that people will get better at knowing it and the actual market condition will replicate.

I agree with you when you say IEOs have made investors to relax on personal research by relying on the fact that the exchange must have done due diligence before hosting the IEO. But on the other hand, I totally disagree with your topic stating IEOs have done more harm than good. IEOs have revived the lost confidence in investing in token sale, which was doomed by ICOs. IEO guarantees listing on exchange which is not guaranteed by ICO.
