So you can see 41% of the token are already held by private holders. And the 5% is just upcoming on coinlist so 5% is nothing compared to 41% who can dump and crash the market price  Shocked

I've been participating in the various sale of coinlist since last year started from casper, mina and etc. I can give you a small explanation about that.

As far as i know, if the dump can happen when the vesting period for the tokens that have already been bought by the early backers or buyers already unlocked but the problem is when there was a VC that was investing on it. As far as i know that tokens bough by VC will be unlocked before the public buyers. that means VC can take the profit.

What does 54% Community incentives & rewards mean?
That means if there will be a reward and incentives for the community just like earning through staking, yield farming, etc.


If a token can be locked/time restricted then the token is not truly decentralized right?
Basically, the token was not decentralized as it totally depends on the code on the smartcontract. The blockchain that is used as the parent chain for such a token makes it decentralized. I meant like token issued on the decentralized network or blockchain.

Confused so if I buy in that private sale on coinlist then what am I classed as a investor? A venture capitalist or retail investor public buyer Huh

There are several launchpads right now in different blockchain ecosystems, and many of them are doing well but generally investment in crypto is always NFA (no financial advice). However, personally I've used a couple of launchpads with proven track record of top-tier projects such as Coinlist, MakerDAO's SHO, Poolz, and Polkastarter.

Kindly do your own research because it's your money.

Okay out of Coinlist, MakerDAO's SHO, Poolz, and Polkastarter, which one you personally like the most?

Okay the coinlist status of the token now is:

You are in the line for the Token Option 1 Sale:

The Token Option 1 Sale has started. Due to excessive traffic at this time, you are in line. When it is your turn, you will have 10 minutes to enter the site. Thank you for your patience.

Number of users in line ahead of you: 104664

Your estimated wait time is: more than an hour



So my position is 104665 of the queue that will take more than 1 hour Shocked?

That means once its my turn, I only have 10 mins to buy? So I have to be glued to my laptop screen till its my turn or will coinlist send me a sms notification to my phone when its my turn?

You will be classed as a public investor/retail buyer. VC will get private allocation by the project team and VC will not participate in the coinlist sale. As far as i know, VC will be asking the team of the project to did direct funding before the team was deciding to launch public offering.

few months ago pancakeswap and bake had a lauchpad for new tokens, but now with so many products being over-pumped at the start it's causing the new projects to be out of balance and leaving them fragile in a matter of days. maybe that's why pancake and bake no organize a token lauchpad again.

That depends whether its a bull market cycle correct?



So you can see 41% of the token are already held by private holders. And the 5% is just upcoming on coinlist so 5% is nothing compared to 41% who can dump and crash the market price  Shocked

But the private sale is for 5% of the total supply. 5% dump is not enough to crash the market price of the token so why they put time restrictions on the 5% private sale buyers?
You can also ask the project owner or the team why but my guess is its for long term. Like the tokens I have before where it is locked for a certain time.


What does 54% Community incentives & rewards mean?

If a token can be locked/time restricted then the token is not truly decentralized right?


As you can read it, It is what it is. It will be used to reward people depend on what the platform offer like earn more tokens if you hold a x total of tokens in your wallet or a reward for finding bugs and many more. They don't want the 54% goes to investors and other buyers as it can cause a decrease in price as mentioned before. Locked/time restricted tokens are decentralized. Locking or time restricted doesn't mean its not truly decentralized it is to prevent or maintain the value of an asset. Locking/time restricted tokens cannot be traded or sent to another wallet.

Okay POS coins are all minted from the start. So the 54% is used to reward holders for staking their coins? And depending on how high the APR or APY % yield for staking will determine how long this 54% will last for right?

So this project want holders to stake their coins lock up total value locked instead of selling to keep the price stable or high? But who's going to stake their coins tokens  just before a bear market starts  Huh



First, I think you will do well avoiding posting in a row like you just did. You can merge your comments or quotes by editing your earlier post to accommodate the second one.


Give us a idea on what are stringest measures of qualifications required? Do you have to be a accredited investor status or angel investors who are professional investors?

Im just a retail investor.
Besides the KYC thing, there's also the tiers for allocation rounds to be met ranging from Bronze to Diamond categories. All that I find herculean for average investors to meet up with.

Can you shed some light on which projects altcoins where cheaper in the public market in compared to the private sales held on BSCpad?
For want of space I will leave you with one recent one. In the pic, the top one is the price that token was sold on BSCPAD while the second one is the current price on Coingecko. What that means is that at the current price one can have 10 of the same token for $0.64 while it sold on the pad for way more at 8.33 tokens for 1 BUSD (BTW, 1 BUSD is an equivalent of $1). At a point, Fanadise even went down to $0.04 after listing.



Shall I assume bronze category is for retail investors?

Do new projects that have been launched on BSCPAD get listed afterwards on the Binance public market exchange?

What do you mean tokens are locked within a certain period of time? Does it mean these tokens are centralized not decentralized where a office can lock control the tokens I bought?

But but the private sale on coinlist is just 5% of the total supply. 5% is nothing and if those 5% token buyers dumped it all it will just be 5% off market price not a proper crash dump.
It is their way to not let the dumpers do what they do best to dump the tokens they own that can decrease the price. I have a token before and they locked it for a certain time and later on it is now unlocked and can buy or sell. You will be able to know it when the team of the project announced that the token is now unlocked.

But the private sale is for 5% of the total supply. 5% dump is not enough to crash the market price of the token so why they put time restrictions on the 5% private sale buyers?

Here's the token distribution of this upcoming new project on coinlist:




So you can see 41% of the token are already held by private holders. And the 5% is just upcoming on coinlist so 5% is nothing compared to 41% who can dump and crash the market price  Shocked

But for me coinlist is the best researcher for top projects.
Oh, for real? I will take a look at that; now that someone on the top echelon vouched for it. I thought BSCpad was the most credible, may be I mistakenly assumed that because I based its reputation on what Binance as an exchange has achieved.

It's not easy to get into Launchpad's private sell. some launchpads require to buy their tokens by tier to determine how much allocation they can get.
That's true. I once tried getting on the BSCPAD when I discovered at what ridiculously low rates investors were buying unlisted tokens compared to when they finally get listed. The ROI was tempting and I was highly tempted to give it a try, even though I had vowed not to buy into any project until it's listed on the market. I gave up the idea once I saw the stringent measures for qualification. However, I have discovered lately that such ROIs may not be there any more as I have bought some tokens mentioned on the BSCPAD recently cheaper than their prices were during private sales.

Give us a idea on what are stringest measures of qualifications required? Do you have to be a accredited investor status or angel investors who are professional investors?

Im just a retail investor.

When registering for the upcoming new project on coinlist I have to do a online quiz/exam where you have to answer questions on the project and the terms of the private sale. Shocked

Can you shed some light on which projects altcoins where cheaper in the public market in compared to the private sales held on BSCpad?



How does a retail investor like me fight with ventures to get a slot? Is it like a auction?

What good ventures you know of?
Not really. Auction is a kind of fair launch, where you win if you pay higher than others. Bounce Certified is a platform of this kind. Meanwhile private sales are in favor of huge investors. Private sales prices are always much better than public sales.

Some well known ventures include Coinbase Ventures, Binance Labs. Following their portfolios might bring you some profit.

Coinbase Venture & Binance Labs allow retail investors? I'm not a millionaire or a rich investor who is accredited or has angel investor status. I'm not Michael Saylor  Grin

Please explain linear release terms. If I pay full upfront for tokens then I should get all these tokens delivered right in 1 delivery straight away so what's this linear release where I get them slowly because I'm paying full upfront not in monthly instalments like a debt mortgage payment  Huh

As far as I know, that's not how many token distributions work. The distribution of tokens are structured in such a way as to protect the price of the token itself. So, yes, you are correct that all your tokens won't be given to you in full immediately upon payment. I also remember there were distributions made in full but the tokens are locked within a certain period of time.

You cannot expect the project to just release all the tokens at once. Remember that all those who joined the private sale are buying the tokens at a discount. The moment the market is opened to the public, the price of the tokens are offered higher. The tendency if you give all the tokens to all those who joined the private sale is that there will be a huge dump afterward.

So for coinlist its random investors chosen and theres no way to get more priority over others to buy the private sale tokens?
No there’s no way to get more priority than others. The sale mechanism ensures users placed in the waiting room are given a random spot in the queue when the sale starts. Users who arrive late to the sale will be placed behind those in the waiting room. From my experience securing an allocation  is very difficult because demand is very high. The site is usually congested on sales day and it takes a longer time to login.

You have to patiently wait for your turn, there is no guarantee that you will be able to invest in a project of your choice. There will be a lot of instances when you will miss out. It is just like a lottery system, investors are chosen randomly and not first come first. Coinlist still is better than the other launchpad available in the market. It is better to be an early-adopter than an investor nowadays. Think for the long term goal and not the short term.

So all popular reputable crypto launchpads are like this that is a random lottery?

Lets say round one private sale is 9 million tokens.

You mean investors who bought in round 1 don't get the full 9 million token straight away but instead get 3 million tokens each month starting from the 20th Oct 2021, then another 3 million on nov 20th, then another 3 million 20th dec? So the investors paid in full upfront for 3 separate later date deliveries?

There are usually two or three sale options Option 1- Option 3. Some token options have a 2 year linear release terms. Tokens purchased under the terms in each Option will be released at Least monthly or at shorter intervals. There is a limit to the amount of tokens one user can buy I think the maximum is $1000 per account. If you register for a token sale and by chance you get selected, delay in payment will result in a permanent ban



Does the payment automatically gets deducted from my funding balance wallets on there or I have to manually send payment? So its like eBay if you win the auction u got to pay right?
