Categories
The Kadena token sale is divided into two options for interested investors, which will run simultaneously.
- CoinList Non-US: This category is only available to interested entities outside of the U.S. Kadena plans this offering to be similar to an Initial Exchange Offering (IEO), allowing Investors to buy-in here, tokens that will only be available on Coinlist’s RFQ exchange soon after the token sale is concluded. The non-US investors will have access to a total of $10 million worth of tokens, at $1.00 each.
- CoinList Global: Just like the name suggests, CoinList Global will be available to all accredited investors worldwide, both within and outside the U.S. However, this offering category is a Simple Agreement for Future Tokens (SAFT) and the tokens will be unavailable until 2020. The locked up coins will then be released periodically, in three equal phases in Dec. 2020, Jan. 2021 and Feb. 2021. Investors in this category will have access to a total of $20 million worth of tokens, at $0.50 each.
Strategic Allocations include all other allocations for recipients of the KDA token, that do not fall under the two mentioned above. The coins here will be distributed to several people in the Kadena community including advisors, business partners, consultants and employees as well. KDA will also be locked up here and will be released periodically as well, over the next three years.
Kadena has so far already successfully raised $15 million from investors including SVAngel, CoinFund, Primitive and Multicoin Capital. The platform also boasts a team that includes alumni of some of the biggest companies in the world, including Microsoft, Google, J.P.Morgan and Accenture. Kadena was founded by two ex-JP Morgan execs including former blockchain lead Stuart Popejoy, as well as blockchain prototype lead engineer, Will Martino.
Kadena also plans to enable mining very soon. Mining activity will begin shortly before the public launch which will include support for transfers, executing smart contracts, as well as the creation of decentralized applications (DApps). Already, Kadena has completed two SAFT rounds with the first one selling 4.5 million coins at $0.50 back in 2017, and the second selling 17.2 million coins in the first two quarters of last year, at $0.75 each.
