Market Conditions & Investment Decisions
We Reflect On Launchpool’s Business Strategy And Opportunities For Our Loyal Community
After months, or even years of steadfast development, it is understandable that many projects may decide to hold back on their token sale or delay their token distribution, while waiting for optimal market conditions.
This is practiced throughout the market and is intended to improve returns for community members while also increasing the likelihood that start-up projects raise the necessary capital required to deliver their roadmap.
With market conditions as they are, we have decided to slow the rate with which we launch projects from our Launchpool launchpad. We are doubling down on our commitment to bring only high-grade projects onto the launchpad.
TLDR? AME frequency down, quality up.
However Launchpool is much more than a launchpad, as the market moves sideways, we continue to move forward. We have pushed forward with our activities and will continue to share our development updates for Launchpool, Launchpool Labs and our newest addition: the Launchpool Web3 Techstars Accelerator.
These products solidify our commitment that Launchpool is here for the long term; delivering early-stage investment opportunities for our Loyal Community not found anywhere else. We thank you for choosing to be part of this journey with us….we are building, building, building!!

How To Participate In Labs AME With Your NFT
New To Launchpool And Not Sure How To Participate In Labs AMEs?
Launchpool uses smart contracts to facilitate our Community’s involvement in the earlies stages of crypto projects. These smart contracts are automatically executed when pre-defined blocks are mined on the blockchain. The smart contract is controlled by block-time, not clock time; therefore contracts are coded to execute when a certain “block number” is mined on the block chain.
To take an example, when we set-up an Allocation Mining Event (AME) on the Binance Smart chain, we input a block number (eg. 23456789 ) to execute the start of the “Deposit Window” and then another block number to execute the transition from the deposit window to the start of the allocation rewards being mined.
There’s a total of four block numbers for each AME smart contract
Deposit Window Opens: this block number signifies the period of time where Community members may start adding their $LPOOL tokens into the project’s staking pool. The deposit window allows members the preparation time for a fair start to the allocation mining.
Allocation Mining Starts: at this block time, everyone already staked into the project pool will begin receiving a guaranteed allocation of the project’s tokens, which you will be able to purchase later on. The allocation you receive while staking is based on your staked amount and your time in the pool.
Allocation Mining Ends: upon the completion of this block, the allocation mining rewards end and the payment window opens. During this time, you have the opportunity to pay for the allocation you’ve received. Once you’ve paid for your allocation, your staked $LPOOL is automatically returned to your wallet within the same transaction. If you do not pay for your allocation, you will need to wait until the payment window closes before you are able to manually withdraw.
Payment Window Closes: this is the final AME block number. Once the payment window has closed, that’s it! If you paid for your allocation it is already recorded on the blockchain. All token allocation must must be paid for in full as failure to do so results in a forfeit of your allocation. The distribution of project tokens starts at the token’s launch and is done in accordance with the token’s vesting schedule.

Helium Switches Its Blockchain To Solana, OpenSea Implements New Protocol, and FIFA Launches NFT Platform on Algorand.
🤯 Helium Switches Its Blockchain To Solana 🤯
Following a community vote, the Helium Foundation declared on Thursday that its mainnet would be migrated to the Solana blockchain. The plan includes moving data transfer and proof-of-coverage methods to helium oracles.
Helium's developer, Nova Labs, inked a deal with American telecoms giant T-Mobile to introduce Helium Mobile, a cryptocurrency-powered mobile service that will let users earn cryptocurrency incentives. In exchange for giving information on coverage quality and assisting in the identification of Helium dead-spot locations across the country, Helium Mobile customers on this cellular plan can elect to get token prizes but would only work on a 5G device.
🥳 OpenSea Implements New Protocol 🥳
The OpenRarity project, a collaboration between several NFT community organizations, including Curio, icy.tools, OpenSea, and Proof, introduces a new protocol that ranks NFT rarity.
Finding rare nonfungible tokens (NFTs) can be difficult for NFT collectors because so many NFTs are minted every day. But as the market develops, the difficulties in locating uncommon NFTs might soon become a thing of the past. In its platform, OpenSea has announced the adoption of OpenRarity, a protocol that offers verifiable rarity calculations for NFTs. The protocol calculates rarity by an open mathematical process.
⚽️ FIFA Launches NFT Platform on Algorand ⚽️
FIFA, the world's governing body of soccer, has announced the opening of an NFT platform on the Algorand blockchain for digital artifacts with soccer themes with the 2022 World Cup only a few months away.
The FIFA NFT platform will offer "cheap, inclusive, and accessible" NFTs that incorporate famous soccer moments, artwork, and iconography. Moments from the prestigious international soccer tournament's World Cup, which will begin in late November in Qatar, might possibly be turned into digital collectables for football fans across the globe.
