The first I heard about IEO when Binance launchpad announced the token sale of BitTorrent in starting of the year. IEO – Initial coin offering is a relatively new method of financing introduced by Binance exchange to the world, later adopted by other exchanges. Nowadays, every second day a NEW IEO is launched by these exchanges.
What is the Initial Exchange Offering (IEO)?
Initial exchange offering, as its name suggests – is token sale conduct on a cryptocurrency exchange platform. Contrary to ICO, IEOs are administered by an exchange. These exchanges charge listing fees and share in sold tokens to a startup for token launch on their platform.
IEO Participants needs to create an account after submitting their KYC documents on these exchanges for token sale participants. Exchange platforms also support startups in marketing operations by running promotions after token sale finishes.
