How to join the Pre-Sale

Overview

We started off by accepting verbal commitments from our community members to guarantee participation on a first come, first serve basis.

However, this almost immediately resulted in more verbal commitments than tokens available for sale (a good problem to have). Therefore, in the interests of fairness, we decided to open up the pre-sale to everyone.

Please find below a step-by-step tutorial for joining the pre-sale.

Important Facts

  • We are an anonymous team, and see it as best for the project’s long-term future if we keep it that way
  • This way of vesting and pre-sale is expensive in gas!! Don’t do it if you are not ok in spending 300$–700$ in gas (depending on Ethereum.)
  • For buying directly from Etherscan scroll completely down.
  • Lixir is an early stage project and you should DYOR before you invest

Details

  • 6 months vesting. The first month is a cliff (no tokens unlock) and for the remaining 5 months, tokens unlock linearly at daily intervals.
  • The sale will end either when all tokens are sold, or at 21.04.2021 ; 23:59 CET, whichever comes first
  • No minimum ticket size
  • 1.5 million Lix are available in the pre sale
  • 1 LIX = 1,5$

Questions

  • Is this safe? Yes, we used an OpenZeppelin contract and tested everything to make sure funds are SAFU
  • Why does it cost so much gas? The downside of using OpenZeppelin is the high gas cost, but it’s worth the investment

How it works

  • Approve USDC
  • Wait for the transaction to confirm
  • Click “Purchase and Vest” to confirm the transaction

How to check your vesting
