What IEO is you can read here:
https://www.coinstaker.com/initial-exchange-offering-ieo/; https://www.initialcoinlist.com/what-is-an-initial-exchange-offering-ieo/.
Today many people say that IEO is an evolution of ICO and predict a great future for it (see:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5119748.0;all).
At the same time I couldnt find a list of platforms organizing IEO today, so I decided to compile it myself and post it on BTT.
Active platforms:1.
Binance Launchpad (
https://launchpad.binance.com/). The first IEO-platform. Next IEO, Celer, starts today.
2.
Bittrex (
https://international.bittrex.com/). The first and only IEO was cancelled (

3.
Idax (
https://www.idax.pro/#/foundation/index). Next IEO, ZeroBank, starts at 26th March.
4.
Exmarkets (
https://exmarkets.com/launchpad). More than five active IEOs.
5.
Probit (
https://www.probit.com/en-us/ieo). Three active IEOs.
6.
Latoken (
https://latoken.com/). A lot of active IEOs.
7.
Coineal (
https://www.coineal.com/ieo.html#en_US). Thre active IEOs.
8. Below you will see the list of platforms, on which MenaPay, one of the projects Ive translated (
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5055912.new#new), is holding its IEO. I dont know anything about these platforms so please reply here if you have anything to share about them. Also Im not quite sure that these platforms are fully IEO platforms, not just a place for selling tokens:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5120875.0;all): I couldnt find any confirmations regarding these exchanges.

The idea of launching a platform in an exchange to launch a newly developed coin/token sounds really astounding to me as it will give a better trust to the investor making an investment.
ICOs were getting abused as most of the ICOs were turning out to be scams but these IEOs might turn the table around. People will get better options to choose from a variety of projects to invest in.
Further more, people will have the option to choose an exchange which they trust and then invest in a project which the exchange lists, hence creating a relationship based on trust.
If things go well then we can see many people investing in these IEOs soon and this might also bring overall growth of the crypto community.
