IMO is still quite new to me, so I wouldn't advise anyone to just jump straightly into the pool.
It doesn't mean that it is new then it is better, as well as it doesn't mean that it's gonna replace ICO then it will be the better than the former.
I had read somewhere at reddit that these IMOs are privately funded, and I am not sure how would I react into that.

I still prefer the IEO model over all others because it is certainly the best model out there for people who would like to get their money very quickly and get it out of the owners hands. What people do not realize that tokens and coins are basically all premined things that owned by the creator fully, there is absolutely no reason why a coin should be premined by people so much and given away in return of btc/eth/bnb or whatever.

In IEO systems, it is still like that, doesn't change that fact but at least you see it going to exchange right away and you can either buy it or get rid of it and take control quicker instead of trying to find some shady bad exchange that will eventually list that coin and probably get away with it on some exit scam very soon.

I did not participate in their bounty campaign because I did not like the IMO idea from the beginning! Investing in IMO ecosystem is just wasted of time, too much pain and no guarantee for profit. For these reasons, IMO project is dying already, no one investing there anymore. All of their projects are unknown then why someone would go for those projects. I suggest everyone just ignore this IMO sale system.

One of the draw back i see with IMO sale is the lockup period for the sale in IMO platform, i don't think many investors will be happy with such long period of lockup, another thing is that IMO is not very known or better yet only few people know IMO as of yet, even the projects listed on IMO platform are not very known to many people also, so very difficult for many to take part,
And for the bounty campaign, the problem was that the lockup part was not very clear to many participants, i myself included, i thought maybe participants won't be included but i was wrong,
i can't really say if the imo idea is bad or good for now since still very new but who knows what will happen in near future.

Any project that fails to be 100% transparency always have something to hide, that is the case with IMO project, I left my bounty reward on the wallet because I can only withdraw 20$ from 200$ worth of reward which is so unfair to me

Don’t invest any project in IMO. This platform is absolutely worst and suspicious. I have been experiencing a lot of issues in the IMO application. My account is got blocked but i never violated their rules. And i trying to solve about this issue but no answered from team. I think bounty manager is a part of the project, he assist in the official IMO platform group. This guy is very responsible but cannot do anything to provide such supported.

IMO project is nothing but a trap, i joined their bounty program and I got paid, we are forced to use the stable coin to buy another coin on IMO platform and we are told we can only withdraw and sell 10% of our coins and the rest will be released in a year, be careful and stay away

There is nothing special about IMO fundraising, its identical to how ICO works and I still find it very hard to trust the platform because they couldn't give information about their teams after asking severally on their telegram channel

Don't put your money in IMO, you will regret later! At the beginning of this IMO, I thought this is gonna rock in 2020, but when people started talking that IMO will replace the IEO, I went through in deep research then I found it's totally worthless! There is no team profile in IMO, no catchy whitepaper, no partner. They just keep conducting endless IEO rounds, therefore you won't get your all tokens before 6 months to 1 year, seriously? I would recommend you don't fall in this trap. Good luck.
There's another thread that already discussed about this before and so many negative reviews about IMO
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/will-initial-model-offeringimo-replace-initial-exchange-offeringieo-5197057

It looks like people didn't understand what meant of IMO. It's the same as ico or IEO but IMO runs on the IMO platform.
This is a trap and so many people have already discussed it in the past.

OP has an intention to promote IMO that launched by IMO scam platform. IEO is much better than IMO from all of the aspects. People must understand it before they try to comment on this.

Nah, I don't think that it is something special with this kind of model.

It's new but I don't think it will be really that good as compare to it's previous predecessor. We thought that IEO will be a good thing right? But look at it right now, still the same pump-and-dump scheme that investors are taking advantage of it. Might create a hype in the beginning, but I don't see it as the go to method of raising funds.

Well, I recently get heard about the new concept IMO- Initial Model Offering to get funding from the market. There were already ICO, IEO, STO, ITO methods to get funding from the market from which ICO is 80% scam, same as ITO. STO is little bit secured as it includes a concept of regulation. IEO is quite good method to get funding if your project gets listed on Popular and trusted exchange.

What's your take on IMO? Is it really a good method that will work in 2020? Or it will also be like ICO scams. Please share your opinions.
I think it is a new form of fraudulent capital mobilization. I used to work on the IMO bounty project and the team forced us to participate in their IMO projects. We only unlocked 5% right away and 95% after 1 year. But one thing that made me so angry was that one day I only received a token amount equal to one in 300,000 times that I should have received. When I asked the team they told us we needed to make referrals to be unlocked faster. After that, I found that the projects were completely disappointing. a project with roadmap and whitelist is like scam ICO projects and even projects without team information. I encourage you to only do IMO on large exchanges, never in small exchanges.

IMO is nothing but an ICO but with a little tweak. They just have one additional benefit of withdrawing your investment if you are not happy with the progress or the outcome of the project. It's somewhat better in my opinion amidst the ongoing trust issue faced by the new coin offering companies. I am not sure how it works in real life as I haven't yet participated in any IMO yet, but the concept is somewhat better than the ongoing fund raising models. But this model requires an intermediary to handle the funds on behalf of the coin offering company which will monitor the progress of the project as well. Let's see how it helps to bring the credibility back in the market.

No bearing for me. If you will compared this to usual fund raising then it's definitely no advantage. They only uses their own platform and what does that it differs on an ICO? I think I prefer to do an IEO where exchange listed the IEO tokens for trading right away. Also Ive checked the projects under the IMO umbrella and it seems pretty low key projects.

I'm betting they will close out soon. Also the developers are Chinese cause when I inquire on their telegram most speak Chinese languages and they still response to these.

Tokens purchased from IMO will be locked for one year, and all tokens that sell at IMO I have not seen it registered at CMC or in any other exchange besides IMO
I also do not see who the project owner is selling tokens there, everything is private
But what I'm confused about is why all the tokens can be sold out? Are there really buyers or just manipulations?

its just a new way and name but its the same method and as always they are just changing the name.
The question what is this new name offered and what will be the benifits of investors investing how they will make it more secured for investors.
If it just the name is exchange there is no change in crowdfunding it will failed also.

Exactly! Name changed, words changed and no unique concept at all. Just a new way to attract new investors to invest in the model of the project. Perhaps, it's not gonna work.

That's right! With this new concept -IMO, what are they offering? In my opinion, are they offering like the alpha version of their product? Because it is the same as ICO/IEO/STO/ITO with app/product that are in alpha or beta stage. Just another name to acquire money from potential investors. Because anyone can create an initial model of their project but how far are they going to develop it? It is the same as alpha or beta stage of a particular app or product.

From my little experience in the cryptocurrency market, when it comes to fund raising from projects they are all the same thing, but using different tactics. The IMO doesn't look different from the ICO and IEO we have presently and I'll advise that we all should thread softly and carefully on the platform.

I dont see any difference compared to an ICO. I heard of this before as many signature codes about IMO are lurking here in forum. I think another hype generated platform cause, it is also handle by a private team and only few projects will easily trust a new system of generating fund. If you were a new project would you rely on a brand new platform or those already existed and trusted? Maybe the catch here is cheaper payment but dont waste money go for huge platform and make some relevant marketing such as Binance.

I noticed that they got some projects listed on their platform but the case is, the platform lacks legal aspect. I tried registering on their platform but there are some shady pop up block that could be a virus or somewhere.

Better avoid risking any of your money for this.

Anyone that  think this IMO platform will offer something different should please play on their platform with small fund, the platform is more or less a scam, how in the world are you conducting an endless IEOs, it doesn't make any sense and I don't think people are actually buying these tokens because if they do, the value being offered should have been all bought if there is demand for them

IMO platform and exchange is still very new, they have brilliant way of handling fundraising which works very well but i nearly opt out because they failed to disclose more information about their team, but one thing changed my mind about IMO, this is the projects that runs on IMO, they are very real projects mostly Japanese, only time will tell, can't wait to see how things play out
