Initial cryptocurrency exchange offering (IEO) is a method of fundraising for cryptocurrency projects. IEOs are organized on centralized platforms and are fully controlled by its teams and community. Through IEOs, projects raise funds from investors to achieve these goals and distribute tokens between them.
Technically, IEO works not unlike other types of token sales: initial coin offering (ICO), initial gaming offering (IGO), initial decentralized exchange offering (IDO), initial staking pool offering (ISPO) and so on.
With the IEO model, people can buy tokens of new projects through this or that centralized crypto platform.
For the crypto segment, the year of 2017 will be remembered for its “ICO boom.” However, this mainstream model of fundraising – when a product collects money through its own website and crypto wallet – had too many dangerous flaws.
First, it was about the security of the fundraising. With ICO, its team is the only actor responsible for the visibility and transparency of the funding procedure. As such, it is too easy for scammers to run with investors’ money.
With IEOs, analysis of the team that raises the funds is performed by the centralized platform behind the IEO. Its security department bears responsibility for due diligence checks so, typically, only legit teams raise money through IEOs.
