The ICO boom has passed, but new fundraising paradigms are still evolving. IWO (Initial Weight Offering), as an innovative attempt, is changing the logic of token distribution.



The core difference of this model lies in the introduction of a flexible vesting mechanism—participants no longer simply lock funds and wait for unlocks, but can customize release cycles and amounts. Even more interestingly, these rights are packaged into tradable NFTs, making the distribution rights itself a liquid asset.

On the Base chain, the genesis token auction for a leading launchpad is about to begin. Participants can set vesting parameters according to their needs and directly bid to obtain the corresponding NFT voucher. This transparent and customizable approach could become a reference template for the next generation of fundraising.

Well, this gameplay is indeed fresh, but the fact that vesting permissions can be traded is a bit crazy. It's politely called liquid assets, but frankly, it's just another way to cut the leeks, right? On Base, I wonder if this wave will once again end in chaos.

vesting this thing sounds pretty good, but it just feels like another new way to cut leeks --- The Base chain is back with another move, NFT-based distribution rights... can't you make it less complicated? --- Custom release cycles? Basically, it's just allowing early participants to cut later ones more easily --- IWO replacing ICO, a cycle law... in less than two years, there will be a new concept again --- Transparent and customizable, this sounds a bit suspicious --- Another top-tier launchpad, can those who participate genuinely make money? --- NFT certificates... if they can be traded, it means someone will dump their holdings

It should be pointed out that the logic of IWO's vesting NFTization is essentially a repetition of the 2017 fundraising innovation dream... On-chain data shows that most participants simply don't understand the risks of custom parameters. Let's return to the technical fundamentals: tradable release rights will directly disrupt the price discovery mechanism, which has already been discussed in the white paper. And it's on Base chain again... Laughs. But indeed, compared to the crude ICO, this has a decent level of transparency. However, don't be fooled by NFT certificates; it's still essentially a lock-up contract. Damn, more retail investors are being tricked into "flexible releases." Based on on-chain history, similar customized schemes have been discussed multiple times in 2021-2022, with questionable success rates... Why do people always forget the lessons? I have analyzed data from all launchpads, and the average holding period for participants is only 14 days. The so-called "custom vesting" is basically just a placebo. This auction on Base is probably another feast of cutting the leeks. Let me tell you—poetic innovation is often just the lie of greed.

Hey, can vesting be played like this? The liquidity of NFT certificates is indeed interesting.

IWO this time is indeed innovative; the ability to trade vesting rights truly changes the game... but it still depends on the specific project team's actions. Hopefully it doesn't turn into a new tool for cutting leeks again.
