The big difference is ICOs were promoted by some random people on the internet who may not aware much abiut the project but IEOs were promoted by big centralized exchange which may give some positive thought about the project among investors.

While this may be a filter that better separates scams from non-scams, due diligence is needed with all new projects. The exchanges themselves generally don't have stellar reputations. Investors should be highly skeptical of all new projects.

The IEO and ICO both are the process of fundraising for a project. The proposal of ICO is presented by some team member and some some crypto promoter form some social media. So there is a very big chance that a ico got scam cause there is no one which can assure that a ico is not a scam. But for ieo the the exchange has a great roll in fundraising. The idea of exchange fundraising is great cause there is a good medium for verify the project. If binance launched a project that means binance verified the project. So there is a very low chance of being scammed or something. But no a day's small and medium or even exchange which is not exist trying to make IEO and may some of them came with scammers. So be careful.

initial coin offering which is usually called ICO is more of the generally unregulated means of sourcing for funds and without credible means and process but IEO is Initial exchange offering. now, exchanges are legally operated and have some sort of regulations and have obligations to fulfil and can be noted as a company so it is entirely different.

ICO collects fundraising from the website and team platform, but the IEO collects fundraising on the exchange.

so, ICO registers the coin after the token sale is complete, and the IEO registers first in the exchange. then the sale of tokens is done on the exchange.

IEOs were created owing to the rate of scam ICOs. So the difference between them is that, there will be no scams owing the following reasons. First, the exchange will carry out a good research to know about the team. Secondly, the exchange will also try to analyse the team to know if they are capable. This is in order to protect their users or members while gaining more.

Yes, it is true that ICO is currently in a very difficult time with a crisis of trust from all investors or everyone, so trust will be very difficult to rebuild in a very short time, hopefully all can choose which is good by doing analysis but sometimes analysis will be very useless when data can be easily manipulated.
The IEO is a very good solution for me personally because the IEO can be managed by very well-known exchanges such as Binance to anticipate fraud so the best exchange will explain everything with the funds they have collected for the IEO, I hope this is a solution to reduce fraud.

IEO and ICO are two different things entirely one is mainly doing it's sales on an exchange while ico is doing it's sales on their site, both are just way of getting quick money from investors

The big difference is the reduction or elimination of scam. That is, everyone in the crypto sphere knows how most ICOs scams their investors, but same won't likely be said about IEOs as before the kick off, due diligence must have been done to ensure investors within that exchange are protected.

IEO stands for Initial Exchange Offering while ICO stands for Initial Coin Offering. IEOs are managed by a chosen exchange but before the exchange accepts, a good investigation will be done on the team to know who they are and if their intention is clear. So the idea is, with IEO scams are meant to reduce which is the big difference between IEO and ICO.

There are many differences between ICO and IEO, the former is selling of coins by the project team and investors waiting for a particular to get the tokens and also waiting for it to be listed to be tradeable ,also it's kyc is handled by the team or hired organ while the latter is more credible and reliable because its done by the exchange which have name to protect so you don't have to worry about security of your documents for kyc ,also you get your tokens bought in your exchange wallet instantly annd it is certain its going to be traded on the same exchange so there is no uncertainty about it being tradeable later or not

First, IEO as the name goes are being managed by an exchange while ICOs are being managed by the team hosting the project. Secondly, there could be little or no scam in IEOs but same can't be said of ICOs. In IEOs the team are verified unlike in ICOs.

No much difference between IEO and ICO, the only different is ICO always have a fixed time of running but IEO doesn't have any fixed time as all the coin can be bought within seconds on exchange.

True, the IEO and ICO have very different sales levels, I prefer the IEO because it is safer in sales, especially the IEO in Binance's market, it will always sell well. Even sales only take a few seconds.

Biggest different is security of invested initial fund. If you invest on ICO's there is very less chance to get back your capital. But if you invest on IEO then you can expect your fund will not lose totally. Because IEO obviously will listed by exchange and you will able to take out your fund. But problem is if dump after listed on exchange. Some peoples losing fund after buy on exchange. So we should not much greedy about IEO. Especially I am not going to buy after listed if I am unable to buy on IEO.

I think the biggest difference is the scam, Scam is the biggest problem ICO faces but with the IEO it is no longer a big deal.

Best thing to do in here is to keep on searching about those projects. They could form as a scam, we don't know what will truly happen.

The biggest difference in ICO and IEO are:

ICO

Initial Coin Offering
They are being hosted on their own site.

IEO

Initial Exchange Offering
Hosted on a exchange platform.

I think that another difference between ICO and IEO is that through IEO you have the ability to become a shareholder of the exchange that is launching the IEO, at least that is mentioned on the IEO of Venethor Coin that will be launched tomorrow on Cryptoplanex Exchange.
They claim that the 50 first investors of the IEO for every 100,000 coins at 2000 sat will get the 1% of Cryptoplanex.

As the ICO's was token sale launched by companies and we can't confirm about trusted ICO's and IEO token sale is launched launched by exchanges that are trusted token sale and most of well know exchanges.

IEOs can also be a scam. Just remember raid on bittrex. This exchange didn't make due diligence and raid resulted to be a scam!
So each ieo can be shady, but risks are lower compared to ICO, because listing process takes less time

the difference between ICO and IEO lies in the level of buyer participation, I see and continue to observe that IEO is the first choice in selling tokens, recently I bought OATH at lbank and MultiVAC in kukoin which only took a few seconds to sell tokens, and also the profit can be very large

The difference is ICO run on their on platform or website. Usually they are doing crowdfunding from people and investor to get money for running their project
And for IEO is slightly same with ICO, the difference is they are doing token sale directly on exchange like nowadays.
Just like in Binance, Huobi etc to make fomo, easier for developer to sell their token to get fund.

the main difference between ICO and IEO is the 3rd party involving between the investors and ICO company.
IEO is running in the exchange, as a 3rd party connecting between investors and the ICO.
It is just like using escrow to transact between 2 sides.

I don't think there is a big difference
For IEO

Fraud will be slightly reduced in the IEO because every project in the IEO will definitely be investigated in advance by the exchange
The targeted funds will not be too large because there are no marketing costs, only the cost of holding an IEO at the exchange

For ICO

There will be a lot of fraud because anyone is free to make an ICO project using fake data
Targeted funds will be very large, because fraudsters want to get as much money, but the reason is to cover marketing costs

The biggest difference between IEO and ICO is the place of sale. If the ICO is held on the ICO website, then it is not with the IEO. The IEO sells it on the Exchanger website. And the IEO coin will be directly on the listing after the sale is complete. Unlike ICO, which sometimes delays the listing time.

the biggest difference might be in terms of supervision. if in ico there is no one who verifies the project who wants to sell the token, on the contrary with the new project IEO who wants to do the sale of the token it must first verify. exchange acts as a mediator to supervise new projects that want to seek funding.

The biggest difference at all is that crypto has become a cash grabber. Both are just scams made to grab money from others without any effort (and without any working utility after all). The initial idea of crypto currency was distorted, and now, is rare to see an announcement of something that doesn't have a premine, a dev fee, a reward for the founders, or anything like that, created to make an easy profit for whoever is behind it.

A crypto currency must be community driven, not centralized around a team that use its creation to self fund themselves from a "forced" way. If it's good enough, people will voluntarely fund it by donations. ICOs are just very specific ideas with no utility (and most of them with no working product at all), made to make a fast buck to their owners (which are also the, kek, coin or token issuers most of the time).

A crypto exchange is intended to make profits by charging a really small fee on trades, not charging listing fees (which also are inducing most of the projects today to have such bullshits like premines and dev fees), nor by offering their own useless tokens in those IEOs.

That's not what crypto was made for.

The big diffrent, i think is Initial exchange offering more safe because can to pervent scam, than Initial coin offering, also IEO after token sale, the project will listing in the exchange, but for ICO sometimes need time to get listed in exchange. 2019 is tren for Initial Exchange Offering.

I think that one of the differences between IEO and ICO is that exchanges are actively promoting their IEO. If the project is released on the IEO on a large stock exchange, then there are more chances that this coin will be traded on this exchange.

The era of ICOs has ended as they were not regulated and many investors were scammed by them. IEOs are supervised by exchanges and they select only high potential projects . They still not guarantee that the project will be profitable but the investors confidence has been regained by IEOs as the first results shows.

the big difference between ICO (Initial Coin Offering) and IEO (Initial Exchange Offering) is if the IEO then investors can immediately get coin from the project and while the ICO, investors must wait in advance until the ICO is finished to get coin from investment in the project and in my opinion the IEO is more transparent, because we can see directly the transaction and volume activities of the IEO, if the volume is high then many are interested to investing in the project, so I will invest in the project too Grin

What big difference maybe is how people think about it. Because when investor feel IEO is better, they will pick it. In fact actually IEO is give a lot of advantages for users and then it is more popular for now.

The only difference is that IEO sales are in the exchanges. And in terms of security, IEOs are one step higher. But this is not the reason for being successful. IEOs are just like a trend.

I think both of them are the same, the difference is the way to raise funds. if ico is done directly by the project team, while the IEO is done more Exchange. overall it makes no difference, and I don't think this is different from the start.

I think the difference is how they handle KYC. with IEO verification, we do it by exchange so investors don't have to worry about data security issues. compared to ICOs that are too vulnerable to fraud, the IEO gives investors a sense of security.

In theory that should be the case because exchanges should make sure that only reputable projects come to their launchpad. But since IEOs are the hottest sh** right now with dozens of exchanges out there competing with each other, I wouldn't be so sure that every of these exchanges is doing their research properly.

There is no big difference between ICO and IEO, it's just a term. ICO (Initial Coin Offering) is a general term and IEO (Initial Exchange Offering) is the specific term for a start-up exchange to issue their token. Binance as we already knew, they issued their exchange token without named it IEO but ICO.

There can be IEOs that can be a scam, the difference is that they are just listed to an exchange already so still keep an eye for those kind of projects.

Ico = independent and all of the control hold by the developers itself. but if you are seeing IEO and the full control of the funds already acquired by the exchange site that try to help the team to get the funds from the investors and that looks very simple to do that.
That's the only differences.

The main difference between them is that initial EXCHANGE offering offers the same mechanism as an initial coin offering, but IEO also provides a guarantee that after the token sale ends, those tokens are going to be listed there.

The only notable difference there is control. At ICO, the developers have control of the coin and process. At IEO, the exchange team is in control. The recent increase in confidence is as a result trust in the reputable exchanges

The biggest difference is gaining the investor's confidence in this ICO game and there are no much things left to do, unfortunately. IEOs can be a profitable choice if investors has a lot of coins to invest in with confidence. The situation is worse in the ICOs.
