Stargate Protocol Launch Details
Join the Stargate protocol & launch omnichain DeFi. The launch is separated into 2 different phases:
- Launch Auction - Bootstrapping an STG-USDC pool on Ethereum 
- Bonding - Building protocol owned liquidity with Stargate 
Phase 1: Launch Auction
Swap USDC for STG to create STG-USDC DEX liquidity.
How it works:
- The launch auction will remain open for 48 hrs or until 25M USDC is added to the launch auction contract, whichever occurs first. 
- 10% of the STG token supply will be auctioned and are locked for 1-year and unlock linearly over 6 months thereafter. 
- This liquidity plus an additional 5% of the STG supply will bootstrap the STG-USDC Curve pair and will be protocol owned. 
- Because their STG is locked, contributors will receive aSTG, which represents their ownership share of the 10% STG token. Here's how contributors can calculate their share of the auction: - (Contributor aSTG balance / Total aSTG balance) * 100M STG = contributor STG balance 
 
- While their STG is locked, contributors will also receive veSTG (voting escrow STG). Learn more on Stargate governance. 
- Once the launch auction closes: - The STG-USDC Curve pair will go live. 
- The bonding phase will begin. 
 
Phase 2: Bonding
Add stablecoin to Stargate bonding curves and receive STG tokens while building Stargate’s protocol owned liquidity.
How it works:
- 15.95% of the STG supply will go towards 12 STG bonding curves. 
- The initial bonding price will be the opening STG price on the STG-USDC Curve pool. 
- The bonding price will increase linearly as contributors purchase STG tokens on individual chains. 
- Unlike the Auction, contributors will receive their STG tokens immediately. 
- Bonding curves will stay open for 72 hours or until STG reaches 3x the opening bonding price, whichever occurs first. 
- Token allocations across all chains are: - Ethereum - 40M STG 
- BNB - 22M STG 
- Avalanche - 27M STG 
- Polygon - 27M STG 
- Fantom - 22.5M STG 
- Arbitrum - 13M STG 
- Optimism - 8M STG
