Topic: Why The Excitement for IEOs? (Read 333 times)

In as much as IEO has its full benefit than ICO, it has its own bad side effect too, it makes the project vulnerable to dumping immediately because the reason why the investors they got participated is to get profit from their investment and not because they so much desire to stay with the project.

If you look at it, people that will get involved more in IEO are mostly whales, who has the money to buy this projects coin in large quantity while they leave the rest to few innocent ones who would not get the chance to withdraw their money by the time the whales strikes by dumping immediately they get the desired profit level.

IEO is a new concept which unlike ICO. The difference is on the participation of IEO you will get your token credited instantly to your wallet which was not in the ICO. Also, you have to wait for traded the coin After ICO by waiting the listing of the coin in exchanges. But after IEO you will get to sell your coin after the finish of the token sale.

I have heard many investors say very good review about the IEO they have participated in so far, I cannot really know how it works yet because I have not been able to successfully participate in it, because the cost of investing is high, which makes it more profitable to those than can really invest in a big time and secondly, the queue most of this IEO always get when it being launched, makes it very difficult for so many people to not successfully participate too.

I am just waiting for the time, where we will have more good exchanges like binance that would be able to handle a quality project. Once we have more IEO and more exchanges, the rush will be limited.

Definitely it's really good replacement for ICOs. Project owners don't have to worry much about finding investors and marketing while investors like us can easily find good investment opportunities through IEOs.

The most important advantage is that we have more trust with IEOs over ICOs because exchanges usually don't list scam IEOs to damage their reputation. Therefore, they do a due diligence before deciding to list an IEO. Therefore, probability to become an IEO as scam is very less. The other advantage is that probability to become an IEO successful is higher than an ICO. If you see the IEOs held in reputable exchanges, you can verify it.

Due to these reasons, I believe that IEO is a good replacement for ICO.

all bcoz of this guy https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bittorrent 

It looks like the main problem was on the ocean team, that looks so weird because they have agreed with another exchange site to add it before bittrex was adding it. Bittrex is very well known as a garbage exchange site right now and bill share and his team just like a scammer.

The started price of trade was around 1k satoshi and it's already below more than 50%.

Even some IEO coins on binance are getting lost too.

Thanks for that link and that's I what looking for right now to prevent my friend invest in shitty bittrex IEO.

IEOs can really be profitable specially IEO's launching in popular exchanges such as Binance and Bittrex
For me IEO is much better then ICO launched projects
Because of the assurance that its ready to trade once launched

if you think of exchanges as collateral from IEO sales, it would be better to join the IEO investments carried out in large and trusted exchanges like binance. because now almost all exchanges can be used for the sale of the IEO.

One of the problems with ICOs is that it's difficult to determine what is and what isn't a legitimate project. If the scam is good, it will fool people.
So IEOs are popular because the reputation of the exchange acts as a guarantee, not only that it isn't a scam, but also that the coin will get a listing straight away.
I do think IEOs are getting a bit over-hyped though - just because something is an IEO, that doesn't mean it's necessarily going to rocket upwards in price.

Obviously, those exchanges that back up this IEO is to blame for the excitement. I mean Binance, one of the best trading exchanges we have so far have IEO's. So people will tend to jump on the bandwagon because of the reputable of exchanges from behind. A lot of IEO's are now being sold in seconds, indication that investors are shifting already from the ICO scams and moving to IEO hype.

I'm not that really excited with IEOs. But let us watch how far this IEO will survive in crypto world. And how IEO's ratings or will  going to succeed in the long run. If this is the way to lessen the fund raise scammers, then I will support IEOs projects. Anyhow, I am expecting that exchanges will gonna play their role to maximize this new platform for the betterment and improvement of coin offerings.

I think IEO excitement has created after the Binance Launchpad! I have been seeing these IEOs on Latoken exchange from the mid of the last year, No one cared about it. But when Binance comes with the IEO on their launchpad and when investors got huge profit from the BTT or CELER, IEO becomes the trending topic! And then many more exchange has started to bring IEOs but those are not enough potential and they failed to create excitement or a positive vibe. Only Big exchange like Binance, Bittrex, Huobi can make the IEO excitement, not every exchange!

It is thinkable because IEO is much better than ICO. ICO can scam you easily by showing the fake raised with the fake team. Therefore you don't know when will you get the ICO token or when the token will be listed on exchanges! But in IEO, everything is transparent! The token get listed after the IEO almost immediately! Therefore, it is safer than ICO in many ways!  So, The excitement for IEO is normal!

Taking the risk might be much better than waiting for your ico's investment, people do love the new way of investment and excited to participate in IEO's due to the potential of getting quick profits, if they can do it in a much safer way then engagement will be more likely for investors.

You are right, exchange has an important role in restoring investor confidence in new projects. the greater the exchange that works together to make an IEO sale, the greater the interest of the investor. but it does not guarantee that the project can be a big success, all still need research before we join the IEO.

I think since exchange is behind IEO people has more confidence in investing into it than ico. I have lose money in 2018, to ico projects and when this IEO come up I have to careful because it looks the same just that exchange give some lift to one.

IEOs certainly have benefits over ICOs, but they do also have a drawback in that coins are more likely to be involved in early trading, i.e. early dumping, due to being on the exchange. I think whilst you have the benefits of getting rid of the scams, you may also have the negative effect of price drops.

Bittrex together with Ocean deceived 5000 traders on 1000 BTC

this is only one example how investors can be manipulated

still think that IEOs are safe?

I think the excitement come from the way how is offered and people like it, also i think is more safer than ICOs because the coins will be for sure sent and somehow the team will try to develop the project so also they can win more.

I like the IEO, which in my opinion is more convenient because of the IEO for me to avoid fake projects, and of course crime. Even if I invest, I believe because I have listened to the market. And I can invest long or short term investments.

The IEO will not kill the ICO's, they will be a new magnet for those individuals who are going to burn their money to make a fast x10 profit... cause is safe to invest through exchanges...
cause exchanges are the safest gateway to hodl and invest your crypto

excuse my sarcasm, but this is what is going to happen, nothing much safer than the standard ICOs, a new bull run is coming, noobs getting scammed in this or in the other way

That can happen every time there's a new place to hype the marke, IEO is a good to make money now so its better to come in before its too late again. ICO are still there but not doing any new big projects that's why the hype is on IEO. I'm not that excited because its hard to enter into an IEO, you can have an option to trade with coins or to be patience buying the IEO token.

Yes I agree with you when new product or servises offering in the market this will surely hype by many people like what happen to this IEO first of all ICO is not trusted to invest because in the end you will suffer from scamming compare to IEO that will be listed to the exchange site and have a high chances to give you a good ROI.
Thats a reason why some big investor switch to IEO to make a good ROI and to try this popular IEO but like ICO this one can be replace in the future.

People are excited regarding the IEO because it is new the negative effect has not seen yet and they are looking forward with this kind of bounty, it is much safer than ICO that is why people are too excited to see that result of it.

Yes we can say IEO is the replacement of ICO. IEO is born because of ICO is not trusted again though, so many ICO ended with scam and investors afraid to invest anymore.

IEO comes at the right time and take over all investors to invest on IEO.

When something is new it will get more attention because of its hype through promotions.

IEOs were endorsed by exchange so people think there will not be any scam attempt.So they are trusting someone with reputation than their own research.

LOL, I laughed at your question because the answer you seek for is right there in your lovely write up. You already said it yourself that many investors are picking so much interest in IEO, which means focus are already being shifted from IEO to ICO.

SO if something is really not done about ICO in time, this might really be the end of ICO which would really be unfair to give up the battle to these idiot scammers. ICO has really help lots of us who cannot afford to participate in presale or IEO, and since we already know that IEO campaign is done by exchanges, so what is in it for people like us who are bounty hunters?

Yes, I see it as a replacement and killer for ICOs or we should say that ICOs are still there but it's just on the upgraded level. Actually I'm rooting for the STOs and thought that it will be more of the trend for this year.

But well, everything has change so quick and IEO looks to be dominant. Investors are rushing when there's an announcement for IEO specially on Binance launchpad because it's one of the most popular exchange out there.

The trend is definitely changing that's why the expectation will be increased when the new type of money making is available and this time you can definitely make the money by the use of IEO and it will definitely give the hands for the success

There is always an update in everything, ICO to IEO, maybe they were not in the same person idea but it's the first product or event concept that just adds some better option that can contribute into that product success. It's much better in ICO since it is offered already in exchanges that gives confidence to investors.

There must be a time when new innovations will replace the old system.  Like ICO, it is replaced by the IEO because each system has a negative and positive side.
There will be someone who will replace the IEO in the future, just need to wait.

Yup, I agree with the innovation of IEO structure compared to ICO. However, it may be too early to confirm that the IEO construction projects will be more successful. A bit more, I am seeing the majority of exchanges are tightening KYC. or it is aiming for a higher concentration. Or they are reforming so that the IEO is popular.

Ieo is the new hype in crypto space. I think it really came to replace icos, as investors and bounty hunter are tired of being scammed or wasting time in fraudulent projects. The advantage is that ieos give more security to investors, as they can be sure the currency will be listed on the exchange after the initial distribution, also, there are better chances ieos bring professional projects, as exchanges don't want amateur fail projects attached to their image.

The disadvantages in my opinion are: kyc necessity to join ieos as investor; less micro task opportunities for bounty hunters, as the exchanges will be doing the biggest part of the advertisement.

It's not a replacement for ICO and there will be always an independent ico still exist in the market but that independent ico can created an agreement with exchange site to launch IEO and that will make that independent ICO will have evolved to the IEO.
IEO is an ICO which will be listing instantly after raised the funds and that ICO has become IEO must not try to re apply again to be listed on exchange site.
The only reason why people trust IEO caused by the instant listing and a very strong reason should be the ROI from IEO and we can see that through some exchange sites.

don't you see that the IEO (Initial Exchange Offering) is one of the dramas that are popular in the crypto room this year. Meanwhile, most investors feel more comfortable and confident to invest in IEO projects than ICO projects that cannot be relied on to make our investment growing.

IEO didn't killed ICO's my friend
because in my opininion IEO just an evolutions from ICO, with a little advantages, thats is guaranteed listing
so, i disagree if you talk about IEO killed ICO mate

IEOs are safer because of the guaranteed listing. That's perfect for short-term investors who want to make their profits right after the listing. IEO is really the next step, they killed ICOs, but IEO doesn't make any guarantee for the long-term project success. The only improvement is guaranteed listing and probably any research made by the exchange before they accept the project to their launchpad (if they do it).

 it is certainly a much better way to raise capital than ICO projects. ICO used to have a golden age but it was only when the scam and lending projects were crowned. They use investors' money to manipulate both the crypto market, buy many tokens of ICO projects and pump it up.
The new IEO is an excellent form of capital mobilization. It benefits both exchange and project. There is no need to lose too much marketing costs and the terms become easier.

Lately, there is a surging interest of many investors for IEO (Initial Exchange Offering) projects and many are reporting good profits or ROI for their investments. There is an ongoing IEO for a good project in the Binance Launchpad and you have to be on the lottery for the chance to buy the coins. Other similar exchanges are reporting good reception of projects under the IEO label.

So what is IEO? In its simplest term, this has the same principles surrounding the ICO platform but here an exchange is given the vast role in the whole crowdfunding process. In ICO, the main players are the developers and the token buyers but here in IEO one more party is involved and that is the exchange, of course.

So why more and more people are trusting the IEO more than ICO? Simply because the project is capitalizing on the platform and reputation of the exchange. This is quite advantageous to project developers as they can easily tap the vast resources and membership of the exchange and on the part of the investor they are assured of almost instant trading option for the tokens or coins bought.

Just like the ICO which is now a much-maligned platform due to many scams and failed projects, there are many advantages and maybe some disadvantage of the IEO option. Do you see this as the killer and replacement of the ICO?
