## **IDO proposal**

**Basic information**

- Total amount of sale: 250,000 $AURORA
- Platforms for sale: SmartPad (Aurora), BocaChica (NEAR), Skyward (NEAR)
- TGE: 18th November, 13:00 UTC

**General reasoning**  
Aurora Labs has enough money to develop Aurora protocol, so there’s no need to do a big  
token sale. The goal of the token sale is to distribute the token to the retail users and thus  
create a set of early Aurora users. We propose to do the sale on three platforms to make an  
outreach to three communities.

**Sale schedule**

- Platform: SmartPad (Aurora)  
Date: 4th November  
Amount: 25,000 $AURORA  
Price: $1  
Accepted tokens: ETH

- Platform: BocaChica (NEAR)  
Date: 11th November  
Amount: 100,000 $AURORA  
Price: $1  
Accepted tokens: $NEAR

- Platform: Skyward (NEAR)  
Date: 17th November  
Amount: 125,000 $fAURORA  
Price: non-fixed  
Accepted tokens: $NEAR

The sale will happen in three phases with the increasing amount of $AURORA tokens  
available for sale. All the chosen platforms are on the NEAR blockchain to develop its’  
ecosystem. The sales are distributed in time in order to build the momentum towards the  
TGE. All the sales start at 13:00 UTC to maximize the coverage of different time zones. All  
tokens are distributed to the users only at TGE, which will happen one day after the Skyward  
sale. No tokens will be locked.

**SmartPad sale**  
SmartPad sale would happen on Aurora with the price of the token $1-worth of ETH at the  
moment of the sale. The sale is open to everyone. The size of the check for a single user  
ranges from $50 to $200. The platform is working on the first come – first served basis.

**BocaChica sale**  
BocaChica sale would happen on NEAR with the price of the token $1-worth of $NEAR at the  
moment of the sale. The sale is open to the users who are staking at least 50 $NEAR. The  
size of the check for a single user ranges from $50 to $250. The platform is working on the  
first come – first served basis.

**Skyward sale**  
Skyward sale would happen on NEAR blockchain. The sale on Skyward will be open for 4  
hours. Due to the specifics of the Skyward platform (continuous token distribution), during  
the sale we will sell $fAURORA – the `future $AURORA` token that will be automatically  
swapped to the $AURORA token at the TGE. $fAURORA is a non-transferrable token, so once  
the user will get it on the Skyward sale, he’s unable to do anything with it.

**Disclaimer**  
Due to the nature of the blockchain and constant changes in prices, transaction queues etc.,  
the actual implemented scenario may have minor differences.
