Have you ever thought of this before?

When I first heard of IEOs from smaller exchanges, I thought they were simply catering to one of the demands of ICO investors which is immediate exchange listing.

Then came the bigger centralized exchanges like Binance, Bittrex, and Kucoin. It somehow made me wonder why would they open up their platform to crowdfunding. Maybe because they also think that the ICO market is dying? If so, then that would mean less new projects. With less new projects, less potential source of income (listing fees). 

So in the end, it is still all about the $$$. These exchange are probably afraid of losing one of their major source of income  Grin


What's your take on this?

Well for me I think the crypto space actually needed something new and well acceptable method of fund raising rather than ICO and what is the more reason a lot of IEOs has turned out to be successful.

I think IEOs came into existence to replace ICOs and other old exchanges which were being occupied by scammers though it started on a less note.

I believe you're right on this. It's all about the exchanges thinking up new ways to keep the income flowing but in doing so, they are doing the entire community as well as new projects a favor. At least I can trust a project backed by an exchange a bit more as their reputation is also on the line.

IEOs began on less well known exchanges before being picked up by major platforms like Binance, Houbi, okEX, Bittex, and Kucoin etc. and are gaining in popularity due to the ICO market declining because of too many quick cash grabs with poor quality products, and this trend has improved the standard investors can expect from the more reputable launchpads and potential ROI which has had a positive impact on crowd funding

in my opinion for IEO maybe some big exchanges think, making crowdfunding platform (launchpad) in the future certainly can make them a profit, before that can be an alternative investor to choose between IEO, ICO, even STO and IEO safer, the only potential scam will occur if the launchpad which held the IEO is a new launchpad

I don't see it that way, exchanges that allows or introduce IEO on there platforms risks there own reputation as well and I bet many are tired of scam projects ,there is differences between scam project and failed project

Not all project can get listed on a reputable IEO platform like binance. Strict compliance is being done to all projects that wanting to get listed to prevent scammers and fake projects from getting listed.

IEO platform is just a place to sell tokens and the success of the project will not depend on the platform, so it the project failed then IEO platform is not blamed.

To provide a safer way of investment procedure than ICO's did, also gives confidence for the investors for prevented scams.
An IEO being run in a widely known exchange like binance will boost the sale of their tokens,
That's the benefits when certain project got the chance being offered inside big exchange like binance the liquidations will be much easier and investors will take their part to participate and try harder to earned from this new way of investment, the market within this field already have a lots of supporters.
binance have the liquidations and many project launchpad are ended successfully, i'm one a part who take the chance to participate in binance IEO.
IEO from big exchange can give investor more profit because the exchange are supported by whales.
investing in IEO is more profitable than standard ICO campaign and now IEO are hyped
Exactly. Binance’s IEO have been pretty successful in the market since long. It is equally profitable for not just investors to put in their money in IEO but for the crypto startup as well. They get access to some quick funds which in case of ICO had not been there due to the scammed nature of ICO. So yeah, Binance is the place to out in the money.

i never think in this angle its really valid point . Yes it looks like exchanges donot want to loose their potential earning or income from new listing . It may be the reason for new IEO . I am strongly IEO , ICO for a time being atleast for in this decade we dont need much crypto project to be funded . There is enough projects out there to support . Some of them like NEM recently had financial crisis.

You are right. My first knowledge of IEOs came from Latoken and Probit but was popularised by the big exchanges when they found out it has become more successful than ICO in terms of fund raising
IEOs have many other benefits other than the fund raising facility as well and are much more profitable than ICOs. Additional benefit is its third party uses or authority which is the exchange itself between the project and the user. There is no need to worry about certain scams or issues which sometimes exist in the ICOs but are not found in IEO. It is in our benefit and we should get the benefit of these projects.

It was because most peoples trust popular existing exchanges more than a new project to invest.
Investors has experienced much loss from investing in no good ICO projects in the past.
So now, the IEO hopefully will bring back the trust from the investors in cryptocurrency world.

Ever since IEOs came into existence I don't think investors have ever complain of getting scammed.
It is worthy to know what exchanges are not to be held accountable if the project fails to deliver what the team promised. I think this is where most people get it wrong; the follow the hype surrounding the IEO and when they don't get their expected return they start complaining. This is entirely different from getting scammed which is rampant in ICOs.

i think its for the investor to easily trust those projects having an ieo, because it's already in the exchange not like ico's

IEOs came into existence owing to the failure of ICOs. That is, ICOs has caused more harm than good thus giving this space a bad name. But since the advent of IEOs, participating in public sale is now easy and convenient.
So, to answer your question, IEOs came into existence to correct the mistakes caused by ICOs..

Not so long ago, IEO appeared very quickly gaining momentum, compared to ICO.  But as for the exchange of cryptocurrencies, it seems that IEO is beneficial to both parties.  Investments are collected in a very short time.
If you analyze new concepts for the implementation of new projects, then the IEO will most likely benefit the exchange and investors, and only the crumbs from the table will remain the developer of the project.  Nevertheless, the investor has always suffered in the company's ico market.

In my opinion the IEO is the newest way of selling Tokens to the public by using the exchange market as a means of selling, so the IEO is expected to return to creating trust from Investors, because we know that ICO is currently getting worse.

I think the main reason that birthed IEOs is the fraudulent rate of most ICOs. These fraud was getting too much that investors were no longer willing to invest in ICOs anymore because they do not want to lose their money. Then projects taught the best way to raise funds from investors is to launch their tokensale through a platform that will guarantee it's legality. And the investors responded well because they can now participate in tokensale without being scammed. And also the exchanges also provide liquidity for the token upon listing.

IEO platform will never guaranteed any legality on any IEO that launch using their platform. Since this IEO project can still scam if they choose to run with investors money. the only good thing about IEO is the promised listing after the token sale which is the core of any token project.

i think you are wrong, if we see few month ago IEO from bittrex, some project want launch IEO in bittrex but have issue with their company bittrex rejected the project.
exchanger must filter and choose best project, because their name are betting by that project, look case from big exchange like Binance, Huobi and Bittrex

IEO created only to attract new users and money to the exchange. Fraudulent projects from the IEO did not save, as the exchange does not project audits. There was already a case when one of the major exchanges canceled IEO, at the last moment, because of information about the fraudulent project.

Binance was the first which realized that ICO market is dying  and they offered a more secure way for investment with Binance launchpad. Of course, they want to control and have bigger  benefit from the investments.

Launched a launchpad for safer investments, but today I got the news that binary exchange has been broken into by hackers, have you not read the news today? I was very surprised when a binary exchange was able to be broken into by hackers, even though many already knew that the security exchange binance was very guaranteed.

The money Binance was stolen by hackers through the appropriation of their hot wallet. I think Binance's security agents should keep this information carefully to avoid future unfortunate losses
