Raise Setup

Setting Up a Raise

A project configures:

What it is selling

Token and supply percentage (for example 30%)

Token price

Fixed USD price per token (implying valuation)

Accepted deposit assets

USDC, WETH, and others

Raise cap

Maximum accepted deposits. See raise capRaise CapMaximum accepted deposits for a raise, configured at setup time.

Yield strategy

Aave V3 by default at launch. See yield strategyYield StrategyProtocol used to generate yield on deposited capital. Aave V3 is the only supported strategy at launch. Yield funds the platform fee and the project ecosystem budget. If buyback is enabled, yield surplus can also fund buyback and burn.

Transferability

Must be explicitly enabled before investors can claim project tokens via withdraw; see Roles and Permissions for the enableTransferable gate

Pricing

Fixed token price, live collateral price

Each raise has a fixed USD price per project token. The price does not change during the raise.

Active collateral routes to the yield strategy and backs investor principal protection. value at depositDepositThe action of investing collateral into a raise.

Valuation math

$$\text{FDV}=\text{token price}\times \text{total token supply}$$

Example:

• $0.10/token * 1B supply = $100M FDVFDV (Fully Diluted Valuation)Token price multiplied by total token supply. Used to express raise valuation. Example: $0.10/token × 1B supply = $100M FDV.
• Selling 30% at $0.10 implies up to $30M notional raise
