“Bittrex International has canceled the initial exchange offering (IEO) of the RAID token,” the crypto exchange stated on its March 14 announcement.
“We decided to cancel the IEO as a result of significant changes in the business status of RAID. Specifically, a few hours ago, OP.GG terminated its strategic partnership with RAID, which was a vital part of the RAID project,” the exchange explained. “When Bittrex International became aware of this significant event, we did not feel that it was in the best interest of our customers to move forward with the IEO.”
$RAID turned out to be a scam. What is Bittrex going to do now? Cancel or proceed with IEO? LOL

Binance, one of the leading global digital asset exchanges, has recently hosted the token offering of Fetch.AI on Binance Launchpad which ended up raising the maximum target amount of $21 million.
Fetch.AI’s offering was the second token sale on the platform this year as, in January, it hosted two consecutive sessions for selling Tron-backed BitTorrent token. It was a massive hit as within 15 minutes tokens worth $7.2 million were sold out.
