The short version. Everything you need to understand MoonSale and the MOONS token in under 5 minutes.
MoonSale is a token launchpad on BNB Chain and Ethereum. Projects use it to raise funds from the public through presales and fair launches. Any project can list without asking for permission. Contributor funds are protected by smart contracts, not by trust.
Most launchpads charge a fee and keep everything. MoonSale charges a fee and shares the majority with MOONS token holders. It is that simple.
MOONS is the native token of the MoonSale ecosystem. It has two uses:
Stake MOONS and earn a proportional share of platform fees. The more the platform grows, the more stakers earn. No lockup required to start earning.
Staked MOONS is voting power. Use it to approve or reject Special Vetted Launch applications. One token, one vote. Real power over what gets the platform's most trusted badge.
Total supply: 1,000,000,000 MOONS. Fixed. No inflation.
Since MoonSale is permissionless, anyone can list. The Special Vetted Launch (SVL) program exists to help investors identify projects the community has reviewed.
Projects apply for the SVL badge for free. The MoonSale DAO votes. Approved projects get a "Verified by DAO" badge and featured placement. MOONS stakers decide who gets it.
