We all know that ICO is an acronym that means Initial Coin Offering, which is how funds are raised for a new cryptocurrency offering. It is a fundraising mechanism in which new projects sell their underlying crypto tokens in exchange for bitcoin and ether. It’s somewhat similar to an Initial Public Offering (IPO) in which investors purchase shares of a company. ICOs are a relatively new phenomenon but have quickly become a dominant topic of discussion within the blockchain community. Many view ICO projects as unregulated securities that allow founders to raise an unjustified amount of capital, while others argue it is an innovation in the traditional venture-funding model. While, IEO's An initial exchange offering (IEO) allows companies to sell tokens to investors to raise capital. This makes them similar to initial coin offerings (ICOs), but there are a few key differences. It is a new approach to crypto-banking that is catching the attention of ICO investors around the world. IEOs can provide many benefits compared to ICOs. They offer greater security for users, improved transparency, bring about a fairer system that can benefit newcomers, and give users a sense that it is a reliable banking system.

ICO has been a buzzword for quite a few years now. IEO is one of the newer words that puts a different spin on an old thing. ICO stands for Initial Coin Offering and is the crypto version of an IPO which is condiered an Intial Public Offering. An IPO is a crowdfunding used in order to raise capitol for a company that aims to be a public traded enterprise. So, an ICO is the same thing but with cryptocurrency. An IEO is an Initial Exchange offering.
The SEC which stands for The Securities & Exchange Commission has been cracking down on Initial Coin Offerings lately and so the IEO was born out of necessity. Bering that most big time exchanges are regulated with a KYC/AML (know your customer/Anti-money laundering) policy, it makes investors feel a little bit safer and at ease knowing that a company has taken the necessary regulatory procedures by using a somewhat regulated and well known exchange.

Both serves the same basic purpose which is to raise funds for the development of projects or the further development of projects but people tend to prefer IEOs because listing of the project tokens in the exchange is sure after the IEO has been concluded especially for the big exchanges and it also guarantees that there would be no exit scams immediately after the tokensale has been concluded which has happened a lot in ICOs.

I know of an ICO that completed their tokensale in early 2018 and up till this day, they are still yet to list in an exchange even after hitting their hardcap during the sales, this would have never happened were it to be an IEO.

The exchange platform backs up the project so if you have trust in that exchange, then the possibility that the investment will produce better profit is high. If ever the project turns out as a scam or the owners have ran away, it will sure stain on the reputation of the exchange. So, aside from choosing a good project, you first need to find a trustworthy exchange.

both aspects must be considered and analyzed carefully. because conceptually a good project will choose a good exchange for their community. that's if the developer is indeed planning big in the future with their platform. but that does not provide a strong guarantee, other scammer factors can make mistakes as you say. IEO is now more popular and more widely used. but this system has not succeeded in increasing investor confidence and growing crypto adoption in the market. there must be another way to grow positive sentiment towards the market.

The projects in the IEOs are already listed on that exchange, an issue that some ICOs before had a difficultly to address. But this does not guarantees the success of the project because even though the coin is listed on the exchange, the price may not increment the way it was projected. There is still a risk but at least even though the project didn't meet the expected output, you can minimize your losses because the coin will not sit in the corner forever.

IEO are purely just a remodelled ICO's, but somehow IEO's are way more better if conducted on good exchanges however you might still lose your money If you had invested in a wrong company.

But at least IEO can be guaranteed by the exchange. I'm sure if the exchange has a good reputation, they will not carelessly take on projects that want to register IEO on their exchanges. But they must first ensure that the project really has adequate quality and has good credibility, capability and transparency. If they get wrong in accepting the project, then their exchange reputation will also be destroyed. Therefore large exchanges usually charge expensive fees to hold an IEO on their exchanges, in that way they can also see the seriousness of the project in building a reputation with them.

There are pretty same, but the only advantage the initial exchange offering has over initial coin offering is that it's sales are done in an exchange, and with that, listing is very sure . Also, I think another reason why initial exchange offering is better is because big exchanges do carry out some research on the project before endorsing them to carry out the sales.

You already stated the differences, what is the purpose of asking and you didn't put any question after your own opinion so it means for me that you are differentiating the diffrent sales system, Btw, i will going to add other advantage of the current IEO's

IEO's Tokens/coins will be directly listed in the exchange where the ieo sale was held if it becomes successful. unlik ICO and IPO in the past that will take months or years it depends on the team when they want to list it.
-Higher chance of being success sale because of the exchange if the exchange is a well known like top 1-10 current exchanges.
any many more.

I think that the only difference is just the method alone, there isn't so much difference that we can say because it is still the same way to raise crowd funding money.

One is only assumed to give ore security than the other, like ico now, a lot of people have really lost major interest in having anything to do with this method because they feel that most of the projects that are there now apart from those one that were released on 2017 are typically projects that have unserious team and lack a real working product other than using hype and speculation to build the community that eventually do collapse along the line, but IEO being a system that is being handle by exchanges directly is believed to be more secured which we have to also be very careful too because of the other ones that we have from a less responsible companies.

IEO is form of company's responsibility towards it's investors. I think atleast the company gives a guarantee that their tokens can be traded at anytime. I agree with you, I think there isn't so much different about ICO and IEO. The most important thing is the reliability of the project itself, the rise or fall of the price of their tokens depends on them.

For me, one of the important differences between them is that IEOs are organize by the exchanges. This is because the project is supervised by the exchange which will organize the IEO. And this allows me to trust IEO's a little more. Another important difference for me is that the token is to be listed on the exchange soon after the IEO. In this way, I do not have to wait too long to trade with that token. These differences also allow me to choose IEO if I need to choose between the two. However, we should not forget that we need to do a detailed research before investing in both.

These methods of fundraising are quite similar, but also have their differences. IEO can be considered more reliable, because before conducting it, the project agrees with the exchange. And if it is a good exchange, then such a project can be trusted. But don't forget that this is not a 100 percent guarantee that the project will be successful. There are also a lot of scammers among those who conduct IEO.

The main difference should be in the validation that will always made by any exchange site before trying to determine which is the project that is worth to be listed on the its IEO platform. As far as i know that some large exchange site has its own validator and auditor team to make sure what they choose is the right project to avoid the scam project to use their service.
This is the main thing from IEO that is not available on ICO.

I agree, other than that one of the advantages of IEO over ICO is that the exchanger holds investor funds. With the proceeds from the sale held by the exchanger, the developer team is unlikely to run away and the exchanger always verifies the project is feasible or not listed because it is related to its reputation

that the benefit of participate in IEO,our fund save in exchanger and developers team has no chance to withdraw their fund before trading started.with this scheme it could minimize scamming case in market ,investor will get more safety and certainity when want to invest in IEO. Moreover if in reputable exchanges like binance,we will get more profit probability and more secure with our fund.

Yes indeed, the exchanger serves as the third party to prevent the developers from running.
It is more likely that the exchanger is also holding its reputation base on the IEO projects they accept.
It minimizes the risk from the investors and it is an advantage for everyone.

ICO vs IEO

- ICO is a fundraising program that will be held directly by the owners of tokens and coins.
- The ICO token and koinare directly managed by the startup that makes it.
- ICO is too risky scam

- While IEO is an event for fundraising that is controlled by trusted exchanges like Binance and others.
- IEO tokens are managed by a well-known exchange company where users or investors can purchase tokens with funds directly from their own exchange wallets.
- IEO is more trusted by investors.

IEO is more trusted in this market and the current trend is attracting a lot of big investors so IEO will certainly be the best choice to make a profit during this time. For me, ICO are now just scam projects and will never be able to make you feel satisfied because of the long waiting period and some projects almost disappear after reach hard cap.

During this time, all investments are risky but join IEO will reduce you to avoid unnecessary risks so should only join IEO at big exchanges like Huobi
