FlashLaunch Details

Tokenomics

Participation and Allocation

  • Each FlashLaunch will have a set individual allocation of exactly $200 per person. There will also be five $500 allocations reserved for holders of a Trusted Node Golden Ticket.
  • Anyone who registers during the 24-hour FlashLaunch window will be eligible for an entry to receive an allocation as long as they have either 4000+ SWAP actively staked or a SwapScore of at least 2500 when the FlashLaunch starts.
  • Applicants can apply to the FlashLaunch during the 24 hours between 4PM UTC on the launch day and 4PM UTC the following day at https://dashboard.trustswap.org/app/launchpads.
  • Once all applications are registered, a specific number of entries will be assigned to each participant based on their SwapScore or Staked $SWAP, whichever is higher (see table below). The snapshot for the ticket allocation will be taken at 4PM UTC on November 9th, 2021. SWAP must be actively staking at that time to be counted as staked.
  • There will be a random drawing for the $200 allocations. The more entries you have, the higher your chance of being selected (see table below).
  • Each person can only win once per FlashLaunch. KYC verification is required and jurisdictional restrictions apply.

Golden Tickets

  • Five “Trusted Node Golden Ticket” NFTs have been minted by TrustSwap which will each unlock access to a guaranteed $500 allocation for this specific FlashLaunch (pending KYC verification).

*Note: Golden Tickets are not redeemable for tokens. They allow the holder to bypass the random drawing and participate in the token offering.

  • These NFT’s will be initially sold by TrustSwap in an auction that will run until November 8th, 2021 at 4PM UTC (24 hours prior to launch).
  • The top 5 highest bids at that time will win the NFT’s. There is no minimum bid.
  • The Trusted Node Golden Ticket NFT’s can be traded and resold on any NFT marketplace and may have additional utilities in the future.
  • Whoever holds the NFTs at the “snapshot” time when the launch begins (4 PM UTC on November 9th, 2021) will bypass the random drawing process and be whitelisted for a $500 allocation (pending KYC).
  • Only one Golden Ticket can be used per individual but those who win the drawing can also use a Trusted Node Golden Ticket to receive an additional $500 allocation for a maximum of $700 total allocation possible per individual.
  • 10% of the proceeds from Golden Ticket sales will go to the Eden Reforestation Project, a non-profit focused on planting trees and saving lives.
