Tokens & tokenomics

Token sale (ICO, IDO, IEO)

Also called: ICO · IDO · IEO · presale

In shortSelling a new token to the public before or at launch, to raise money for the project.

ICOs (initial coin offerings) boomed in 2017 and many failed. Today there are IDOs (on DEX launchpads), IEOs (on exchanges) and regulated sales. Presales promoted with guaranteed returns or paid influencers deserve extra suspicion.
