I don't know, I can't ignore one of them because I think both are good ways to make money
I do not judge whether it is ICO or STO, the most important thing is what the project is and who are the supporters and developers.
I think it makes more sense than just assessing whether it's ICO or STO

Of course I see STO as a positive improvement. In terms of security, STO is better than ICO. With the STO system, investors can reduce the risk as little as possible.

STO is better for investors, ICO better for people who participate in bounty campaigns.

It's not supposed to be good for bounty hunters. If all that coin can do is make a campaign for a few spammers so that they can earn some tokens and think they won a lottery it's a bad coin and it will be bad for those spammers as well since they will never be able to profit from holding it.

ICOs and STOs both have a chance to be profitable. The problem is anybody can do an ICO which makes it prone to scams. To do an STO you have to comply with regulations and have backing.

So recently I cam across this article in regards to Germany's first STO backed by the German financial regulation authority called Bitbond. What do you think about the evolution of ICOs? Do you see it as a positive or a negative?

I would love to hear what you think about it, would you rather invest into an ICO or and STO? What are the main differences / pros and cons between the two? You can read about Bitbond's STO by clicking on the link below.

Also check out the blogging platform that the article is written on, it's a new crypto blogging site that pays you for upvoting articles and writing content. It's a nice way to earn some extra crypto. 

I'm still waiting to see what STOs are doing, so far I've not found one that has blown me away. At the start of the year everyone was talking about them taking over ICOs well they haven't.

The STO that the article is about looks interesting, and they have already raised over 2 million USD according to their website so it's going well.

I do not really like STO. I think that the IEO looks more promising and allows you to make a profit faster. I think that in the near future, the IEO will be much more popular than STO.

the owners saying they have some sort of fake permission or something like that doesn't mean their fund raising is backed by anything. it just means they might have found a way to get some sort of permission, maybe under false pretense.

and this is not evolution of fund raising.
the evolution will only happen when at least one of these ICO/STO/IEO/XYZs actually do something and contribute to betterment of the world, the betterment of cryptocurrencies or deliver some sort of product.
and so far in the past 4 years we have not seen a single one do anything remotely close to that...

Well I haven't invested in STO before because I was so caught up with ICO but since I have given up on ICO, I think I would try out STO to see what I can benefit from it, I am going to make my research about the project and when I am done, I should definitely know whether I should invest in the project or not, because I am at the confuse state of my life and don't really know the direction to go, whether I should invest in IEO or STO.

I think both have their own pros and cons. STO is a security token which is very sophisticated and under a certain tie with the authority. Meaning they all have legal aspects when it comes to inception of the project. They have advantage over an ICO in this matter since they can be monitored by the legal constitution but totally centralized or sometimes manipulated. On the other hand ICO promotes utility token and we can see how does it become useful right? Problem here is a non verbal agreement with investors and holders. Meaning your own your own, if you risk then suffer if it fail. Something like that more on decentralized aspect. Freedom, but the consequence is huge as well.

First, I would like to clarify that there is no fight between ICO and STO. Both are like alternatives to selling a new coin or token to the general public. Although the STO promises investors a share of their future earnings which is why it is a security though. I guess I am right about this.

I am agree, we should not comparing between STO and ICO. Both are alternative investment. If i should choose, i am prefer choosing STO because STO share their future income. Most ICO are utility token but many good ICOs can give a good profits from the price fluctuation

Choosing between a Security Token Offering and and Initial Coin Offering depends solely on the investor. In the layman terms if you are looking to invest into something very formidable and solid in the long term run then STOs are for you. But if you are looking to make some profits real quick then you can invest into ICOs. Careful you don't get scammed out of the numerous ones out there even though there are still some eligible ones in the cryptospce.

It's not about a fight but about an upgrade, STO is more like an upgrade of ICO and it is being regulated by government agencies, this makes it more easier for investors to have more confidence investing their money into the platform since they have confidence in the government and knows that the government won't do anything that will make them lose their funds since it's man goal is to protect her citizens, unlike ICO that is not being controlled by anybody and anyone can operate freely without being sanctioned even if it turns out to be a scam.

Moreover, it is going to STO vs IEO. Yes, STOs may face touch competitions against IEO. Again IEO's regulation and monitoring is limited to a particular exchange whereas STO is subject to some countries norms. I believe these types of fights are good for common investors as they may get good product in crypto space even they are not good in ROI in most cases.

STO is better for investors, ICO better for people who participate in bounty campaigns.
In my opinion, bounty hunters are an important part of this market. It's like a part of the wheel Grin. Without them it will not turn around. They are the people who are the first target audience for project. Yes, hunters came to earn money to buy BTC Wink
It seems to me that there will be additional requirements for hunters in STO projects. We know about KYC, which prevents spam and use multiple accounts. There will certainly be new rules, such as knowledge of SMM, Marketing and so on. That is to be bounty hunter will be prestigious.
And for investors, this will be a new breath of air because it will be more reliable. From then on the growth of the market will go.

Waiting for news)

STO seemed better than ICO. Though both have striking similarities but not its obvious that they are not entirely different. I think IEOs should be integrated with STOs to prevent exchanges from taking advantage of the process to manipulate the system.

Remember, how many news have been made over the last year about compulsory regulation of the cryptocurrency market. We knew that our technology would interfere with the centralized system. There are things which we can not influence. We are young technology. We still weak.

We made a lot of noise to the whole world. Do you agree with me?
Just remember about bitcoin price in 2017-2018. And about ico projects that have collected more than $100 million. And this is only 10 years of technology.

But i see two trends in development of market cryptocurrency.
1. Countries see the prospects in the everyday use of technology blockchain. Have to give them a chance!?
2. There will always be an audience that will live with old rules.

I will always be grateful to the first projects that have given me anonymity. I am convinced. They will help us in the future.

I think the ICO time has passed. Many projects have discriminated against themselves.  Time will tell whether STO can occupy a vacant niche in the market. I'd love to believe it

As an investment point of view, sto:s can be more legit or or a "serious" asset to invest. But it's strange to compare them at all since both of them have different use cases. And we speculate their worth differently. Ico can be either an utility token or whole new cryptocurrency, while sto:s are just tokens on top of the existing platform.

STO is an upgraded version of ICO. And every time there is an upgrade, it is much better and more preferred by the people. Investors got sick with the recent movement of ICOs in the market, many became scam, and the promise of listing to an exchange will take forever before it happens. While in STO, personally I havent invested to any but my opinion, this is a better thing for most investors. You will have the assurance that this is being approved and the people behind it are genuine.
Some people used bitbond and their money got defaulted by scammer and this is such a disgrace. it's much better for you to do a lot of research. Not all of STOs are good in fact that almost all of them are traded below the ico price or when it was issued by the developer to be bought by investors.

This is well said, we have seen scammer filtered into ICO space and if/when STOs too gain traction Scammers will exploit it, for me with the way 2018 went, I feel STOs is better but we are yet to see STOs in true sense it is all promises that is being made to investors.

I always prefer STO's. Because, in sto's that means you are a shareholder, you have the part of the profit. In ico, you are getting utility tokens which have used in the ecosystem. They mostly end becoming shitcoin.
