Will STO's be able to compete in the crypto market and actually succeed?

I expect a complete description of what STO might look like from your own view. It is a development out of the crypto young phase but we cant expect it to be perfect solution,we hope we wont look for another soon

unfortunately today Cryptopia suffered a hack.

Only few of the recent exchanges had not being hacked, remember it is one of the good and profitable exchanges until the hack. This will always be a challenge for anything online .

The STO may well work due to the regulation that this method will bring to the fundraising process. However, this will complicate the participation process for small investors and facilitate entry for large ones.

I think that the situation with STO's will be much better. A lot of ICOs became scam because of this long market falling. They didn't have enough funds to survive but now the market stopped falling. So new projects will develop and wotk on their products.

Security token offerings can be considered as new generation of Initial token offerings. Finally, these tokens have some use.
But the negative thing is that all buyers have to pass KYC.

What do you guys think? Will STO's be able to compete in the crypto market and actually succeed? I'm glad to see ICO's die out. They were consuming too much market cap +90% of the projects were garbage. I made a list of 100 ICO's I seen promoted back in April and only a select few of them are doing well. Nauticus launched (https://nauticus.exchange/) which is great news for the exchange community, but unfortunately today Cryptopia suffered a hack. We seem to take one step forward, followed by one step back...What do you guys think?

I hope so. ICO projects are not getting too much attention anymore. If you check icobench you will see that there was about 1.6 billion dollars invested into ICO projects last year on February and this January even though we are just at the half yet we have just 160 million dollars and I am not considering a ten time investment made into ICO's anytime soon which means ICO projects dropped to %10 what it used to be.

Thanks to STO projects maybe those numbers will go up again, I mean it is not a guaranteed thing but at least we hope it will make it alive again and make it trustworthy again. Even if it reaches to half of what it used to be around 500-600 million dollars per month that means we are on the right track and during the next bull run it will go beyond what it used to be but without that hype we are going to see it go up to maybe 500-600 max instead of middle ground.

That depends on how good the project is. If the project listing as a STO is "quality", then I think it will prove to be an effective venture.

I agree with this, but there were a few ICO's that made it big. Binance used to be a tiny exchange with nearly no volume and look at them now. Nauticus was just in there ICO phase and they raised over 19 million dollars. Both of these feats were impressive considering how hard it is to make it in crypto.

$19M is huge enough, there were projects this year that never got a 5 million but continue to develop their project. If funds are used wisely to develop the project, the exchange will be used by people.

I think that even STO will not be as promising as it might seem to us, because everywhere there are disadvantages!

It will still depend on the project, SEC would decide for which is worth pursuing and which is not. If investors are going to be protected by this SEC, we can be assure projects are going to get funds.

I think they have much more chance comparing to utility tokens.

Would you choose share of the profit or a utility token just can be used in ecosystem.

many people think that STO is a refinement of ICO, but this does not make it a guarantee that the project can be successful. we also have to remember that there were also projects from ICO last year that were successful, so this is not an indicator that STO is better than ICO, but it is based on the project itself, whether promising or not.

STO is not just a refinement compared to ICO, reread the concept of STO. STO is much stricter than ICO, the project owner will have to commit the progress, otherwise it will be punished. And the one thing I really like about STO is that they have proved their foundation as well and there are a lot of people involved, and the revenue from the platform

I would like to see your list of the top 100 projects. In general, I think that the market correction showed weaknesses of new projects and those who do not have the potential will not be able to continue to live

Nautilus is not one good exchange I heard that there was a new exchange called IronX, but in my opinion is now in demand exchanges that share daily turnover with users. For example abcc !

I have not yet participated in any STO token, so I don't know how attracted this kind of project to investors and if they can accommodate bounty hunters to be part of their project, but I believe even an STO needs some kind of promotion to get the word out about their project, they are not giving coins they are paying for advertisement.

STO are definitely interesting, and is one of the ways this market can be invested in for entities subjected to heavy regulation. You can probably see it as an improvement over ICOs which have nearly no oversight. I've learnt quite a bit from CoinGecko's 2018 Cryptocurrency Report regarding STO - Slide 49.

I think it will be a popular and most used way to fund raise in the near future since ICO has a lot of complaints. Because of a lot of shady activities, I mean scammers, ICO don't get enough fund now but when STO will come, they will get fund to start the project.

We don't really know if this is going to work but hopefully it does. The investors will express a greater demand for security tokens because they offer them governance and protection which is a good thing. Let's all hope that STO will be a successful one.

Honestly, the way I see it, I don't see a single difference between STO and ICO, except that STO is legal, and you can do it without any worry of getting sued for something down the line, etc.

But does it make it less risky as an investment? Nope. Will it reduce the amount of garbage tokens? Not at all. Any token can hire legal people and work out stuff so that their STOs are okay for regulators. But STO doesn't magically make a project good, doesn't magically build a community and all that. I'm not convinced at all, to be honest.

I don't think it will have any effect, considering that many investors have suffered crowdfunding losses in the past year. As we have seen, they only make projects that don't really exist and what is makes STO can be a solution.

Still, there is a huge difference when we try to compare STO and ICO, STO is much more secured but ICO is much more flexible, well, I can say the volume of investors in ICO is quite much more than compared to STO.

Since most of the peoples are just bored of ICO because they are scam, people will now be interest to invest in token with STO so that no one can try to scam them. I think it will work.
