Pontoon Finance Announces the First-Ever Initial Hot Cross Offering
Liquidity fragmentation and composability remain some of the significant issues hindering the growth of the DeFi space. Pontoon aims to address this through its liquidity mirroring techniques across various networks. In the pursuit of this, Pontoon Finance is ecstatic to announce its upcoming token sale on Hot Cross, the leading multi-chain cross chain suite for stellar blockchain teams and communities.
With the First-Ever Initial Hot Cross Offering to be conducted on Hot Cross, Pontoon Finance will be the first movers in the upcoming era of IHO’s. Pontoon Finance will premiere on Hot Cross on 28th October, 2021. This strategic collaboration will be a game-changer in the DeFi space and lay a stronger foundation for future collaboration. Both Pontoon Finance and Hot Cross are on the mission of revolutionizing the DeFi space and this collaboration will result in exchanging synergies for a decentralized future.
Why IHO: Breaking the Stereotype and Taking a New Route
With the IDO ramping up the momentum across various networks, Pontoon in itself wanted to create an impact that was distinct. The IDO hype was too focused on providing community benefits and powering a decentralized fundraise, leaving out the focus on the importance of strategic collaborations and B2B standpoints. Pontoon Finance was keen on creating a balance between both for the long term growth and success of the projects. In the quest of expanding our network, community initiatives, strategic partnerships, collaborative efforts and B2B partnerships, Pontoon Finance is gearing up for the IHO. With Hot Cross IHO’s bringing the best of both worlds, Pontoon Finance was definite that this could be the best ever resort to their launch journey. Ofcourse, we wanted to provide an unique and personalized experience to our stakeholders and beloved community members in contrast to the preconceived notions of the hyped IDO’s leaving users in disdain. And also, the fun element too.
We wanted to do things differently and hence we are here. Fasten your seatbelts as we are here to take you through this exhilarating journey with our First-Ever IHO. Excited much?
What is Initial Hot Cross Offering?
We are sure you would be wondering what an IHO means? First and foremost, an IHO works similarly like an ApeSwap’s IAO or PancakeSwap’s IFO. Users will essentially have to pay in a HOTCROSS-BNB LP PCS V2 (contract address) for $TOON tokens. The excess funds will be returned to the users upon the claim. Interestingly there will be a mixture of capped and unlimited (overflow) sale portions which will be dependent on successful participants and KYC registrants. It is all about creating the balance and this wouldn’t be possible without the community’s support.
