An Initial Liquidity Offering (ILO) is a fundraising method where projects and startups raise capital by selling tokens on DeFi-based decentralized exchanges, bypassing the traditional Initial Coin Offering (ICO) process.
In simple terms, ILO enables you to raise funds, and as soon as the tokens are launched, a liquidity pool is created, allowing your investors to begin trading immediately.
Before setting up your ILO, we recommend reviewing our suggestions (located below the guide) to help you plan effectively and ensure your ILO's success. Additionally, be sure to read the important notes to avoid overlooking any crucial details.
To locate our Launchpad UI, select the "Fair Launch" tab in our UI.
After that, you will be asked which DEX you want to create your ILO on.
Provide essential details, including the project name, banner, description in Markdown format, and social media accounts.
The first step is to decide how many of your tokens will be available for your ILO and to establish both the softcap and hardcap.
Softcap: If the softcap is reached, the markets can be initiated by the project owner/ILO creator, or they will be automatically initiated when the ILO concludes. Any unsold tokens will be sent to a burn wallet.
Hardcap: If the hardcap is reached, it indicates that all tokens have been sold, and markets can be initiated by anyone.
The next step involves adjusting the listing rate and deciding the portion of the funds you raise that you want to allocate to liquidity. By the side, you can see the number of additional tokens needed for liquidity.
The next step is to establish a maximum allocation per user. This setting determines the cap on how much each contributor can invest in your ILO.
Note: The maximum allocation impacts the number of whitelist spots available in round 0.
Lower allocation = more whitelist spots
Higher allocation = fewer whitelist spots
Now, you have to choose the token you want to use for your ILO. If you already have your own token, paste the address into the empty field. If you do not have a token and want to create a token, follow the steps
