Investors in the crypto ecosystem are all moving to invest in projects running their crowdfunding through IEOs. This is the main cause of the reductions in the investment in ICOs. With IEOs, investors can monitor the total amount of the tokens been sold and also know the progress of the project.
Yes, this is a good breakthrough, because indeed the IEO is very safe, and if it works then the project will be directly registered in the market, I think Invetors are mostly currently switching to the IEO rather than the ICO.

Yes, it is true, the ICO project in the past year will experience a very deep price decline far from the ICO price, because they are not serious about developing their project, they are only looking for their own profit, that is the current ICO.
I think this is just the logical consequence of a very overvalued market such as the ICOs, because many of them do not really contribute anything substantially new and only seem to be designed to take advantage of the blockchain and cryptocurrency trend to seek financing that otherwise would be almost impossible for them.
I would also justify the fall from another angle: at the height of the ICOs boom, people invested in any project generously, however banal it seemed, because they knew that the possibilities of high profitability were real, but now people has realized that things are not so easy, and anyone is not willing to invest as easily as before.

As compared to the Q1 of 2018, Q1 of 2019 saw a dramatic decrease in amount of investment done on ICOs. The amount collected by ICOs has been decreased by 58 times as compared to previous year.

That's because investors lost their trust in ICO regardless of how good some of the ICO, they shifted their money and attention to IEO obviously for fast profit and safe investment, which ICO have losses, last year and this year, and next we will see fewer ICO.
Is the IEO raised fund excluded from 118 million quoted for this year Q1? Stilling waiting coingecko Q1 review for detailed information, its so informative that everyone should make it their habit. I am expecting changes when market get better and some regulation on crowdsale are effected most especially from USA. IEO might struggle if the dump after listing cant be controlled.
Not only excluded but it seems like this media is not even counting those icos are running or listed in ico drops, it must be fair to create a combination between all of icos and IEO because basically IEO is an ico but it used the help from exchange site to raise the funds. 
Well, it may be true if we see the condition of this duped market right now. Investment in some ICOs will be always decreased after they are already listed in the exchanges. Some new coins cannot hit promising and big exchanges. That is why they will always have a decreased price from time to time.
Those per cents- this is not how maths works, but all right, it is not a topic there. ICOs have lost its charm. However, we have to keep in mind that a year ago, major cryptocurrencies were worth several times more money than they do today and this factor could be one of mains. Of course, as bubble exploded, it seems like no one cares anymore, but it is far from truth. Projects need some breathing space and give those which raised money during the boom a chance to prove themselves. Some are doing great despite the current conditions. There might be another crazy race to the moon which would help others- and the cycle continues. Hey, we are not where we want to be, but it is still better than the state of nothingness, right

It is supposed to decrease below that when you look at the so many scams that came out from ICO in 2018. No sensible will want to invest in a business that he will end up getting scammed. That is why a lot of people are running away from ICOs now.
unfortunately you can see by the numbers the decline of the icos. the scam icos have expelled too many investors and now the other icos are having a hard time to raise money.
Everything went to this, there were more and more scammers, fewer investors, trust and investment are falling, and there is no solution to the problem and it is unlikely that it will be found at all, very difficult times are coming for the ICO

to go from 6.9 billion to 118 million is a big drop.
I think most ICOs are just an excuse to expand the money supply. They need to have a legit purpose that actually improves utility.
Deylandra.io – a crypto currency designed to strip the 1% of their power.

This is a lot, I think that this is due to the frequent cases of scam on the part of the ICO. In addition, I do not remember that in 2018, some projects collected hard cap. Investors have ceased to trust blockchain startups and apparently prefer to invest in long-established projects from the top-30 of coinmarketcap.
therefore we must be very careful in ICO investment because now ICO is dominated by fraudsters so we should not invest carelessly and also not invest too much before the ICO improves.maybe now it's better to invest in popular coins only.
i guess many investors has already abandoned cryptos for better future, icos are loosing trust from investors due to scammers an less profit in this downtrend market, if this market can rise agian, i think ICOs can turn back to where it belongs.
What to expect from that investment industry where most projects are dealt into scam?
There's new craze and hype for IEO and ICO investors are converting their choice into that.
The scamming projects and fake projects was the reason why people are not really investing in icos this days. I think there should be security tokens and insurance that should guarantee the safety of investors fund. The fake projects were louch at the q2 and third quarter of last year and many investors including me lose heavily because of this fakes and scam projects and that brings bad name to cryptocurrencies in the investments cycles. I dont think something positive can still be done and for us to forget about those fake projects and focus on the best way to invest in the cryptocurrencies market! There's new craze and hype for IEO and ICO investors are converting their choice into that.
Two things I am about here before taking into discussion here. He was part of some bounty campaign and making his post against ICO investment which is really not healthy for the discussion
Then here on forum people still believe in investing in ICO. Most probably we should get all back as market seems getting recovered.

I think this must be normal after the big wave of icos wich gathered a lot of money during the bull run and after the bull run, that is what I call luck for crypto projects but now we have a total different situation when good project barely gather their soft cap wich is good but far away from ideal....
I think that after such figures, we can safely say that the ICO is dead and we can only hope for the IEO. If IEO becomes more accessible to regular users, developers will no longer have the issue of insufficient fees. The ICO has long lost the trust of investors due to insufficient regulation and a large number of scams.
So now the IEO is better and quite promising with their sales on the stock, after the sale of the IEO is finished it will definitely be listed on the stock exchange.
Retail investment has declined due to obvious reasons such as scams and ponzi schemes, over hyped products and services, lack of protection for investors, and regulatory uncertainty for startups, but this is beginning to change with the arrival of IEOs and STOs which should help improve the quality of what is on offer and it will be interesting to see if these newer crowd funding solutions become successful and help revive the crowd funding market place
When we speak of scam and Ponzi scheme, this is the area I have so much respect for IEO tackling completely and getting rid of BUT speaking of over hyped product and services.I am not sure IEO is strong enough to really cub this, a project might be duly registered, prepare their white paper which they will definitely hype based on their hope and believe that the project will succeed, wherein any IEO platform will register after properly verifying that they are genuine and the paper presented looks promising.
But, there is no guarantee that the project proposed will not eventually go down the drain in the long run, maybe as a result for end users not fully into it or developers not managing it very well, IEO can only take care of the beginning but the rest part of the project is what I cannot really say about.
