Re: Are ICOs dead?

ICO is not dead. More precisely there are already many who do not use ICO. Although there are still a few. Investors trust IEO more. Compared to ICO, IEO is far more useful. Moreover, if the IEO conducted on the exchange are already popular. Then, tokens will be sold out in a few minutes.

I agree that ICO is not dead. There are several projects that prefer the ICO path and are able to achieve the target soft cap. Maybe IEO is faster in achieving the target but for new projects that are raising funds, paying exchanger at a high price is a difficult choice for the developer team

Maybe not totally dead but we can agree that ICOs are no longer what it used to be. The only ICO I remember this year which did okay was from Ferrum with a very low cap of 500k usd. Investors and Exchanges now prefer the IEO pattern which offers more security and confidence

The IEO now replaced completely the ICOs and the last page of the ICO book was closed a year ago. The investors have the freedom to believe in the exchanges rather than trusting the team of the legit projects. The crypto investors can't find easily the realible proejcts and they look for better options in this case. The more choices appear in the market, the more problems will be solved. The exchanges also know these facts and they look for reliable proejcts now. It is quite easy to list the token after the IEO but the exchange management also want to use the reputable companies for gaining more advantages. They don't need to believe the empty promises, the practice of the crypto trading also teaches them like the most traders.
