Title: Do you think the IEO is a sign Crypto is growing up?
Post by: Bobcrypto on May 01, 2019, 11:56:33 AM
Yeah, the IEOs has made some mark in the curren crypto development and i think that IEOs may have changed the face of token sales in its short period of usage. It is doubtless a positive development and sign of the maturation of the industry, and it offers better protection to investors with trusted third parties and creates immediate markets for tokens sold.

Not everyone will welcome IEOs with open arms. In an ecosystem designed to remove the need for intermediaries, some will consider the IEO to be a regressive step. But as the ICO boom in 2017 highlighted, investors face real threats when adequate security measures aren’t taken.

Now, rather than relying on assertions made by an ICO startup, investors can put their trust in the due diligence performed by the exchange hosting the IEO. It may not quite be the desired dream once hoped for, but it’s a necessary step.

It ultimately shows the industry is serious about protecting investors, a sign to regulators and institutions that crypto is growing up. What do you think?

I'm not convinced by this sentiment, although I do agree there will be good investments that come from IEOs, the results so far are very much looking like the ICO bubble of 2017. Here is a screenshot of a video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07Wg1sh5xxI) that shows the returns of the recent IEOS. Notice how it's very much like the "successful" ICOs of 2018, those who got into the offerings made lots of money dumping their tokens (3-4x), those who got in after exchange listings generally lost money.

For sure there is money to made from IEOs, especially from Binance and other reputable exchanges, but ultimately they do not appear to be good long-term investments.

When you have to rely on the judgement of others, exchanges in this case, then that is hardly a sign o maturation of the market. If that is how everyone sees IEOs, then best of luck to your investments

In my opinion, it could be like that. Or maybe for the person who created the IEO he wanted to make a match so that the bounty hunter had the choice in hunting for prizes. Maybe others had their own opinions.

Only 1 minute can be even less than 1 minute the investors can purchase new coins in the IEO.
in the end after the coins sell quickly, there will be very fast trading as if there will be a dump if there are no buyers at prices above the IEO.

I think there is no correlation between IEO and the growth of crypto. IEO is another kind of token sales, so it means the growth on initial token sale ways. But of course, if many investors are active because of IEOs, it gives a contribution to improve crypto space.

The IEO is a new way to attract many crypto investors, because of the quiet crypto market at the end of 2018 and the many coins that live in the developers, I think the IEO is a good way to increase the confidence of new investors to be easier to choose coins and easy to trade

IEO is a new innovation in crypto business nowadays. The developers cooperate with exchanges to provide their token sales in safer and popular shape. I see there are many top exchanges that provide the IEOs now.

Just the other day, I read complains from people who bought in another project that successfully held an IEO. They say the price was like 10x below its IEO price.

I think the OP has not seen those yet and is only focusing on the sales generated.

On the contrary, if you say IEOs investment may not be good on the "long term", simply because those who participated after listing lost, then we may have to look at the meaning of "long term investment" properly. We may redefine a long term investment probably to align those who invested after listing but lost.
You know, a long term investment couid be defined based on individual investors target. To some investors, a long term could be 1year, 2years, years, or even 10years. Those who lost after listing these coins may have to look at "long term investment" properly based on your points.
However, you be convinced later that IEOs development   on crypto ecosystem may not be based on sentiment but may be a reality on ground. Thanks

By your very own standards, given that IEO based tokens haven't lasted more than 1 year (let alone 2, 3 or 10), it's clear there is no evidence it's a good long-term investment. If you look up the strategies of long-term investing, you will find the idea is to investment in solid projects that have proven to be a good investment over a long period of time, not speculative projects that you might be able to flip for 3-4x in a matter of days or weeks. It's fine to do this, but don't it's not long-term investing. Furthermore, putting our trust in centralized exchanges that might be bankrupt tomorrow in no substitute for long-term investing strategies either.

Unlike most people here, I don't think IEO is a sign of crypto's growth. It's rather a sign of lacking idea & trust: ICOs are running out of idea with very few quality project and investors are running out of trust. Providing the fact that the latest ICO - Ocean Network can't even sold out after days on Bittrex, I don't think IEO will last long.

To be honest, now I do not see any sense to participate in either the ICO or the IEO. There are enough good projects on the market that are at the final stage in the development of the final product.

Of course, IEO made a certain contribution to the development of cryptocurrency and solved some problems of ICO, which allowed to raise the level of investor confidence. At least, now the projects conducting IEO are able to raise the necessary funds to implement their ideas in a short time. This has a positive effect on the cryptocurrency sphere as a whole.

Post by: 88percent on May 02, 2019, 11:55:53 PM
Can be. Actually, IEO is one of crowdfunding. This is an alternative to ICO. And many people consider the IEO better than ICO because they have been listed on the exchange. But is it true if they are more worthy? Depends on what exchange and how the team makes it successful. This can sign one of the crypto growing up.

Many investors are turning their attention to the IEO, fund-raising methods like this are considered to be better, safer and less scam. But there are also many investors who maintain the old method, this is because of the trust and transparency of the IEO.

Post by: Arybes on May 03, 2019, 12:45:06 AM
In my opinion this is an active phenomenon in crypto.the ICO character has been synonymous with fraud that has caused investors to lose, including bounty hunters. From that case investors are looking for other alternatives, namely the IEO as a way out to make a profit.

Post by: Stuart on May 03, 2019, 05:07:28 AM
One thing I observed and have seen about IEO is that it makes faster the success of project which ICO could not. On the other hand, there is no awareness created to the public, which means its only to the traders and probably the investors which are in the crypto space this named project was made for. ICO was made for awareness creation and the general public that will lead to mass adoption into the crypto space.

I think there are need to participate in both if you the capital plus interest.
You see, there are actually good projects out there to invest, but there could be still arwas areas in crypto ecosystem that may require crypto and the blockchain developmental projects, and that may overtake some of the existing projects with better use cases. I think in this cryptocurrency economy, obviously it is still new and developing, some will definitely fade away while many will remain. Thanks

The IEO, which is actually better than ICO, is very suitable as a substitute for alternatives. Now investors are more profitable. IEO is already registered in exchange once the project starts. So investors are more eager to follow it.

It is undeniable that the IEO has recently been widely discussed and sought after by investors. It is a positive thing and becomes a new alternative for investors to invest more safely and reduce being caught in a scam investment. But there are still many good projects that don't use the IEO as fundraising, because every #DevelopmentTeam  has their own thoughts and ways.

As the experience of my observations (albeit small) shows, niche projects designed to close gaps in certain areas of the crypto industry almost always fall below the ICO price. So they can be bought more profitable, but a little later.

For me its Yes and it was really a sign for innovation and creativity since Exchange are consider a escrow it will add more security to the investors to keep their funds safe from fly by night ICO platforms. or the Exit Scam ICO.

I see IEO's as a different way to fund crypto and blockchain projects. The more tools we have, the better. If IEO's replace ICO's this is not market growth. But I think that both will coexist, for a long time, because they serve different needs.

I agree with you still there are risk losing money in IEOs or ICOs projects because however they are still new projects related with the cryptocurrencies, but however the IEOs is new innovations in cryptocurrencies space for the projects to searching for the funds of the projects and the ICOs start be leaved by community of cryptocurrencies to investment in new projects of cryptocurrencies and i think the IEOs is more trust than ICOs projects.

I think ICO will not be lost or abandoned by investors, I have seen new tokens that do ICO, then developers work together with crypto exchanges and do listings. IEO is a step forward for crypto investment, but it does not guarantee that this investment will bring benefits to investors.

Maybe. In my opinion, the IEO is a breakthrough in the process of collecting funds that are good and quite convincing because it has been listed in the market. However, are all projects that use the IEO sure to be successful? In my opinion also not necessary, because we can also see what exchange they choose, as well as the number of trading volumes.

Yes of course, the ICOs will not be leaved by all of community of cryptocurrencies the developer of team can choose them both. And i agree with you there are no guarantee that investment in the IEOs will gives the profit for the investors because there is one example about the failure of the IEOs projects and it had scam IEOs you can check on here https://news.8btc.com/worlds-first-ieo-exit-scam-yescoin it is bad news about the IEOs, so there is no free risk of investment in cryptocurrencies.

ICO projects are generally the easiest and most accessible to all to raise funds for the initial release of tokens to develop their projects. IEO projects appeared only after the level of fraud in ICO projects was simply overwhelming. This was a necessary measure mainly to avoid fraud. I do not think that this is evidence of the development of cryptocurrency, it is most likely evidence of the hopelessness of the situation with ICO projects and the slowness on the part of states in responding to fraud in ICO projects.

The IEO for me is an upgrade of the existing traditional ICO with inhance security for the safety of funds since exchange are acting like a escrow so those damn heads scambugs are not easily do fraudulent activities.

Its because Binance is a major exchange. I think IEO is good for crypto growth considering the impact it made on the last few months. Every IEO projects normally sold out in just a few seconds to minutes and creating a nee opportunity. Market seems pretty moving forward and this is the start.

No it doesn't show that crypto is growing but is an advanced pattern of ICO that was changed be IEO  I can say that is a sign to show that the particular project is going to be listed in exchange and also a sign that the crypto project is efficient enough and is a genuine project that's reliable but is better than the normal ICO

Cryptocurrency makes all the difficulties easy, all forms of investment are very risky and crypto does not guarantee and encourage anyone to invest, but after investors see products like that of ethereum, I am sure investors will be happy because it is very easy to invest in crypto, by participating in the IEO and ICO.
these are two choices for investment that are very easy, because it is not like investing in the international stock market.
but always be careful and look at the project details before investing.

If a coin is offered with IEO, it is not guaranteed, that it will be profitable. It will be profitable, only, if the project is good, and manages to survive for at least, five years. Although, different ways of coins offerings, show, that the market is growing up.

I do not think that the transition from ICO to IEO can be considered a growth of cryptocurrency. This is actually one of the ways to increase investor confidence in raising funds for the initial release of tokens and reducing fraud in these projects. All these methods are still in development. It is possible that ICO projects will still return their popularity when government regulation appears in them.

That is one of the ways to collect funds from the project developers. I think that it is part of the crypto development. However, this is not one of the criteria that says about the growth of crypto. Thorugh IEO, the coins can be more trusted and listed in the certain exchange. That is one of the models of collecting funds once more.
