PCO is the new acronym. The better, improved ICO - discuss - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/new-term-pco-2198016

I didn't invent the PCO, I just "coined" it.

You know I was just thinking the other day that exactly what this needs is another acronym Cheesy

I think it could catch on though!

Apparently we missed out on the opportunity since no PCO for BannerCoin. Sad

Maybe we can get credit for the new term as a consolation prize!

Ha ha here's hoping!

Hey folks,

i am wondering what are the differences between presale we see that often and an ICO. why do companies run a presale mostly with higher benefits compared to the following ICO? do investors have to stick to some kind of conditions afterwards? (hold at least for x month?) i dont assume that because ppl sometimes gather, group up to collect the minimum needed in a certain presale and participate. so what is so special about presale?

Most of the ICO conduct pre-sale so that they can collect money from people who is willing to invest in their company as early as they can with a big discount than the exact ICO.

Thanks for all your replies. Also did my research, and yes, you are right, seems it is for some big guys to chip in, and to make sure that they can run the ICO, prepare it. Pretty sure marketing costs are high to ensure having a well known ICO coming up.

You should just do a 1 or two day ICO, if your product doesn't get any investment then start with what you have.

Presales are coming with more bonus, which means if you want to dump your tokens after the ICO end, this will be much easier for you to sell them without lookin at the low price.

Pre-sale is giving more guarantee than ICO.there is some ICO's we cant catch but on the pre-sale your relx and also they gave you extra bonusses but on the other hand if you invest during the ICO your money be not tradable for a month

PreSale is just a tool for their promotions to sell tokens on PreSale with huge prizes over prizes or bonuses on ICO or token sale.
Presale determines the success of ICO.

I think they are good for everyone.

The startup - gets early investments, publicity and a buzz about their coin / token. Also they will have money for expenses when launching the ICO, i.e. scaling of staff members, marketing budget etc. Have to remember not all companies are backed by loads of cash and maybe they are bootstrapping everything.

The users - Get more value for their early investments, get to talk about a product and see it grow. Also if you invest in the pre-sale then your investment already has made some money (as the price will have increased), once they launch it onto the market.

Higher the Risk - Higher the Return

Lower the Risk - Lower the Return

It is simply as to how much you believe or willing to risk into a coin!

In almost most cases there aren't any after sale conditions.
Pre-sales are usually run for very short period (days to week) and the main point is to check what would be investors interest in particular project. And this is bringing additional bonus for early birds/investors.

I'm making almost of my ICO investment in pre-sale for biggest bonus.

I would prefer a presale more than ICO's they are not the same, and pre sales happen on most of any kind of market around the world.

Usually in Pre-sale a coin the price will be very cheap and the bonus is abundantly different with ICO when the price will be a bit expensive and bonus offered slightly.

And that would be the one we should need to catch up if the project is good since we can earn for instant for the bunos given by the devs team by the time they implement their presale. And by presale bunos investors will doesn't need to worry about such lost on the first day of addition on the coin they've bought since the percentage of the bunos can give them already some profits eventhough the bounty hunters dump their bounty coins.

ICO Presale or also known as Pre-ICO, is the token sale event that Blockchain enterprises run before the official crowdsale or ICO campaign goes live. The fund-raising targets for Pre-ICOs are often lower as compared to that of the main ICO and tokens are usually sold cheaper.

For the purposes of prudence, Pre-ICOs ideally make use of separate smart contracts from the main ICO event - This is informed by the need to avoid a mixture of Pre-ICO funds with the main ICO to enable proper and easy account reconciliation and audit.

Some projects run Pre-ICOs as a way to accrue funds to cater for the expenses incurred on the way to launching the main ICO. Some of the expenses include paid promo ads, strategic recruitment and meet-up costs to help whip up investor interests.

Do we send the payment to the address in blockchain, or their company private address. Because it's pre ICO so if they don't program it in smart contract, or if they need to give "special" discount then maybe it's hard to write the smart contract?

What are some ICOs with super smart and successful presales?

If you go to altcoin announcements you can find some ICO's that offer presales!

Do they offer presales from the get go once the announce ANN, or they wait a few weeks. Just wondering.
