the only difference is the middle letter. ICOs are scamming people by calling themselves initial "coin" offering and IEOs are scamming people by doing the same exact thing while calling themselves initial "exchange" offering.
the end result is exactly the same with different speeds at which they dump and exit. as IEOs are already supported by and listed on an exchange they can dump and run away faster.

You got it absolutely correct. The only difference is that C and E in between. Otherwise, they are both the same bananas. They are actually both coin offerings, the other one offered to the open public from the project itself while the other one is offered through the exchanges. There are tinier differences such as ICO coins might not be listed at all while IEO coins are going to be listed immediately right after the offering, ICOs are offered in an absolutely free market where a scam is offered alongside a much lesser scam while IEOs are somehow screened by a third party which is the exchange, and so forth. But all these differences could really be insignificant.

You just put out the basic difference. ICOs are fund raising campaigns organised by the developers of the project itself, they have full control of the funds. IEOs are organised by the exchange and they have initial funds control. Asides this, the result which is "loss" is usually the case for investors when they allow complacency to kick in. Nothing different in that regards

The difference between IC'O And IEO's is C and E, which means that ICO's is Initial Coin Offerings and IEO's is Initial Exchange Offerings, which means that in IEO's is faster in and it has already trading on the exchanges, While ICO's investors are buying direct from the developer or the Team, which take more time before going to Exchange. Therefore IEO's is faster than ICO's.

both ICO and IEO are the same. There is no difference that is too striking. it's just the difference is only in different crowdfunding events and cooperation between exchanges.

I agree if the IEO project is carried out with well-known and large exchanges, like the example in Binance and others. But if collaboration with the new exchange or reputation is still not dominant, this could be cooperation between the IEO project and the Exchange to conduct a scam. So it makes no difference in my opinion with ICO. in my opinion this is not an innovation to eliminate scammed, but only modify it so that investors are interested and glance at it. So what determines the success or failure of an IEO project is from the Exchange factor, but not the products or services offered. Because the assumption of an average investor like that.

Yes IEOs are just using the exchange to attract people in their project because everyone think that when the coin is already on exchange the project already succeed.

They just upgrade their strategies to scam more people because they know ICO already lose the trust of investors.

There are some differences between ICO and IEO. They are different because of their features. ICO means initial coin offering and there is no third party involved for investment. On the other hand, IEO means initial exchange offering and coin offers through an exchanger. IEO is more trustable than ICO among the people.

IEO is really more trusted than ICO because since the starting of 2018 most upcoming ICO projects are scams, that is why there are a lot of projects which became unsuccessful and their coins don't have any good value. Unlike IEO projects there are only few scams projects because it is still new, that is why IEO projects is more profitable than ICO projects.

For me it is a form of token sale, nothing else. IEOs are now more popular because people believe that exchanges will protect them against scam and that they will not choose poor project, but they are wrong, it's all about money, you pay, you will be listed Cry

For me its the same wherein the real intention is to scam investors ! Because honestly when IOE start running i thought it was a unique platform and the real goal is to protect investor from some ponzi project.. But it was a mistake and just a trap . What i mean a strategy to convince ppl easily .and i was the one who fell on it because of being confident .wherein because also of some good feedback and etc. So for me they're are totally the same wherein not trustworthy and reliable. Much better to stay away to reduce risky situation.

ICOs are usually without an escrow and are held on the website of the project, often manipulating data on the amount of funds that have been collected. too risky!
Whereas IEO, there is an escrow at the same time being held on the exchange market. more trustworthy than ICO.
Even though there are many differences, there are still drawbacks, there is no guarantee that the type of investment we choose ICO/IEO will be successful.

Escrow is what distinguishes these two types of sales. IEO uses an exchanger as escrow, whereas ICO does not involve escrow. both of them do have similarities and differences, and the difference that is also quite noticeable is that you don't have to wait a long time for the IEO list token on the relevant market. although there are many similarities, currently IEO dominates ICO compared to ICO because ICO is quite easy to be a scam.

The only difference is where to transfer the money. The rest is the same to raise funds from investors so that their projects can proceed according to plan.
Some say it just changes the way, but a scam can still occur. If the ICO, a scam can occur when funds achieved and developers run away. But at IEO, the funds have been collected and the developer sells his own coins and then runs off slowly by abandoned project, doubling the profits.

One of the fundamental differences between ico and ieo is that investors no longer need to send ether to the Smart Contract address that governs the token sales, but each IEO participant must create an account on the exchange and send ETH (or other types of crypto received) to the exchange account and when IEO starts, participants can buy tokens directly from the exchange / stock exchange and of course this is a bit of a sense of security for investors, so they are not trapped in a project scam, where ico revolves around project developers who collect investment contributions (or speculation) from community (or users) denominated Ether (or other cryptocurrency), and the developer removes tokens from the product so that developers can flee investors' money after ICO is finished without distributing their tokens.

Well the truth about initial coin offering and initial exchange offering is that they are both the same, after the so much scam of ICOs came IEO to remedy the situation. The edge IEO has over ICO is it's direct listing and some sort of assurance when done in a trusted exchange ,these trusted exchange carry out research on the projects before giving it's consent but on some small exchange it is even worst because the sales are most times not successful there. IEO on Binance, KuCoin, Gate.io , Okex are good and successful.

Like other crowd funding source the only difference I can see is their style of raising fund. ICO is for owners of their own project launching their coins on their own website or platform. The integrity of this type is very low since they can be a scam project still unlike IEO which tapped the services of an exchange. Yes, they can by risky too but more legit and trusted compared to ICOs. But still hoping for a regulation to differentiate these two.

yes maybe you are right. but IEO is better for some projects. I see there is still hope for those who want to invest, as long as the project is in large exchanges like binance. indeed overall IEO and ICO are the same. but quality exchange will make the difference.

I strongly agree that IEO is more interesting than ICO and it is very beneficial for investors when joining IEO, especially since there are many IEOs in a short time and are immediately listed on the Exchange in the near future and are very good

IEO is profitable for investors and many people are considering this investment at major exchanges. Most of the major IEO projects have been successful and have helped us to make a lot of great profits during this time. Currently, you can choose big exchanges like Binance, Gate, Kucoin to join IEO because the projects here are thoroughly tested and do not need too much time to wait.

Ico held by an unknown people where you can get scammed easily, but in IEO, you have options to not go for an average/shit projects! In IEO, you can see everything is very transparent, you don't need much promotion because the exchange itself would do that! Therefore, investors don't need to wait for months for getting token and exchange, rather in IEO, investors get their bought token in the first week! Everything in IEO is better than ICO!

IEO bloomed when ICO died after the bull market due to scam and when investors lose faith on ICO because a lot of ICOs didn't even made it to get listed in exchange. Thru IEO the crowdfunding occurs in an exchange where it secures the project on getting listed right before the project starts.

ICO is an initial coin offering without involving any other parties to run.
On the other hand, IEO is a coin offering running on the cryptocurrency exchange platform.
This is the basic difference about ICO and IEO. Because there were many scam projects, peoples choose IEO because they trust the exchange.
