Token Raise Mechanics

PAID's token fundraising system is designed to reward committed community members while ensuring fair participation for all users. By integrating a multi-tiered structure, staking incentives, and guaranteed allocations, PAID makes token fundraising transparent, sustainable, and rewarding.

Token raise formats

PAID offers different execution formats to match project needs and community demand:

  • Standard raises - Full multi-pool progression with extended timeframes for broad community participation

  • Flash raises - Accelerated 24-hour allocation windows for high-demand opportunities, available exclusively to Gold tier and above

The multi-pool system

Each raise uses a structured pool system, offering a clear path from open community participation to high-priority access for loyal stakers.

  • EarlyPool - Guaranteed allocations for Silver tier and above, scaled by each user's multiplier

  • PriorityPool - Limited allocations for Bronze tier and above on a first-come, first-served basis

  • OpenPool - Open to anyone with KYC, with remaining allocations available on a first-come, first-served basis

LowFDV Community Offering (LCO) approach

Many PAID token raises use the LowFDV Community Offering (LCO) model, PAID's unique approach that ensures launches at the lowest possible fully diluted valuation for genuine upside potential rather than inflated entry prices.

Token raise flow: how it works

To increase engagement and raise efficiency, PAID has restructured the token fundraising process into a streamlined, high-participation flow.

PAID's raise flow operates through the following stages:

1. Pre-raise registration - Opens 5-7 days before launch where all stakers must register interest in an upcoming raise to secure their spot. Registration ensures accurate allocation planning and prevents last-minute participation issues.

2. Flash Raise allocation (Gold+ only, if applicable) - Gold tier and above participants get exclusive access during rapid allocation raises. These high-demand opportunities feature limited timeframes and premium project access.

3. EarlyPool (Silver+ guaranteed access) - Runs for 20 hours, giving Silver tier and higher users guaranteed access to available tokens based on their staking multiplier.

4. PriorityPool (Bronze+ access) - Opens one hour before the final stage, allowing Bronze tier and above to participate before general access on a first-come, first-served basis. Limited allocations are available for this phase.

5. OpenPool (All KYC users) - Runs for 1-2 hours and welcomes all KYC-verified users regardless of staking status. Remaining allocations are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis until sold out.

Allocation multipliers explained

EarlyPool participants receive guaranteed allocations based on their staking tier multiplier:

  • Diamond → 6x multiplier

  • Platinum → 3x multiplier

  • Gold → 1x multiplier

  • Silver → 0.5x multiplier

Higher multipliers mean larger guaranteed allocations in EarlyPool, rewarding long-term commitment with better access to opportunities.
