At least 5 known launchpads implemented users protection recently.
Today the question is not “if” but “when & which” rules you will implement.
Investors can now choose choose a place, where they’re feeling safer
Glad to see POLS looking for feedback in that matter.
Below you can find commonly used rules, addressing the common problems:
- Minimum LP (200-400k, based on amount of funds raised) - to stabilize price.
- Minimum LP lockup (9/12m/full vesting) - to prevent stealing LP.
- 100% tokens to launchpad before launch - to protect vesting schedule changes.
- Synchronous distribution - to avoid receiving tokens later than others.
- Money release per vesting by launchpad - to protect user funds.
- Short time before IDO and listing (21-31 days) - to avoid having users liquidity locked.
- Price maintaining (2 vestings / 41-50%).
- Full refund in bad cases ex. LP added incorrectly, bots on launch, team selling out of vesting, rug pulls.
- Team, Dev, Advisors, Marketing lockups.
- Limits of raised funds (ex. $1M, max 5 launchpads)
- Maximum difference between private and IDO price (5x) - to prevent private buyers having too large advantage vs risk.
