Optimus Ecosystem

The Optimus ecosystem is a robust set of tools available for both crypto projects and investors.

Project Community

Any crypto project can create an official page where they can get followers and communicate with them. Creating a project page and following a project page involves a non-refundable fee in $OPTCM that may change from time to time at Optimus' sole discretion. The fees will be displayed on the Optimus website prior to performing any of these actions.

Optimus may terminate or restrict a project page / community at its sole discretion.

Projects and / or users that will try to abuse the Optimus ecosystem and / or use it to spread hate, abuse, scam or mislead others, will be banned.

Optimus is not responsible for the content shared by projects in their community or their actions. Joining projects as a follower and participating at projects campaigns is at the user's sole responsibility. Optimus will not be liable for any emotional and / or financial harm done to a user as a result of using the Optimus platform.

Optimus Launchpad

Optimus provides a semi-automated, cross-chain, launchpad, backed by smart contracts where projects can sell their tokens in a token sale. By using Optimus you understand that Optimus is NOT responsible for the safety, integrity, performance, and / or future success of the project and / or its token.

Members Ranking System:

Optimus has a built-in ranking system that is based on the amount of OPTCM tokens held by the member. There are 4 levels of users:

  • Moon Dreamer - A member that holds at least 1000 OPTCM in their assigned wallet. Has the ability to vote and only take part in public sale stages.
  • Space Cadet - A member that holds at least 10,000 OPTCM in their assigned wallet. Can vote, and also take part in presale stages.
  • Astronaut - A member that holds at least 100,000 OPTCM in their assigned wallet. Can launch a project themselves, become a validator, vote, and take part in private sale stages.
  • Galactic Traveler - A member that holds at least 1,000,000 OPTCM in their assigned wallet. Can launch a project, vote, take part in seed sale stages, and more.
Dynamic Allocation:

In addition to the Member ranking system, Optimus will also have a proprietary dynamic allocation system. The system is meant to reward investors based on their positive behavior by giving them higher allocations. The system is made of 3 main components:

  • HODL Score - A score based on the average % of past projects tokens held by the member after a certain amount of time.
  • OPTCM Tokens held - the number of OPTCM tokens held compared to other investors who expressed their interest in joining the token sale round.
  • Allocation Usage - A score based on the % of past projects' token sale allocation used. The exact formula will not be disclosed to avoid manipulation. However the HODL score will be available for each member in their profile.
Validators:

Validators are members in the Optimus community that are responsible to approve or disapprove a project at the initial screening process. While any project can launch in Optimus, we want to make sure that all projects are on a certain level, before we approve the token sale. Validators check the project and rate it for 5 parameters:

  • Concept - The overall concept / idea of the project. Is it needed? Is it revolutionary? etc
  • Team - Is the team public or anonymous? If they are public, are they experienced enough and have the talent to launch a successful project?
  • Roadmap - Is the roadmap promising? Is it realistic?
  • Tokenomics - does the tokenomics make sense? Is it favorable to investors?...
  • Product - Is there a product? What is the quality of the product?...

Validators are required to rate the parameters from 1 to 10, and add an explanation for their rating. Validators will not be aware of what other validators are doing. Projects will not be aware of who the validators are. This assures a clean validation process.

Optimus Blockchain Products

Optimus offers proprietary blockchain smart contracts that can be used by its users. These smart contracts are also available for other projects to use.

Smart contracts include:

HODL Staking / Farming

The HODL Staking and farming contracts have an increasing APR mechanism, where the APR increases every time a staking member cashes out. EVM projects can launch a HODL staking or farming contract.

HODL Sale

The HODL Sale contract have an increasing APR mechanism, where the APR increases every time a token buyer cashes out. EVM projects can launch a HODL sale contract.

Dynamic Referral System

The dynamic referral system allows EVM projects to launch their own referral program backed by smart contracts.

Fees

By participating in the Optimus launchpad, you agree to pay all applicable fees and you authorize Optimus to automatically deduct fees directly from the amount of tokens you bought (as an investor) or from the tokens you sold and funds collected (as a project). Fees from investors are 10% of bought tokens. Fees from projects are 3% from funds collected and 3% of total tokens sold during the sale. Fees may change at Optimus's sole discretion at any time.

Discounted Fees

Optimus may offer discounted fees to certain investors and / or projects.. The exact rates and details of the benefits and discounts may change from time to time as Optimus sees fit.

Fee promotions

Optimus may at its sole discretion for limited periods of time, offer fee discounts or rebates. However, such promotions are limited time offers and may be canceled by Optimus unilaterally at any time without notice.

Optimus Project Token Sale Process

In Optimus, any project can apply for a listing. However, Optimus reserves the right to reject any project at its sole discretion and without giving any reason.

The Listing Process

Sign Up:

The project will sign up as a project do the following:

  • Hold at least 100K OPTCM tokens in their assigned wallet.
  • Submit at least 10K OPTCM tokens to a designated wallet provided by Optimus. Optimus will add X3 that amount from the Treasury fund. 50% of the total project pool will go to the validators. If the project did not pass the initial screening process it will come out of the project's funds, and if the project is successful in passing the screening process and raising funds it will come out of the Optimus Share.
  • Fill out the project form with all the details of the token sale.
Validation:

Once a project is approved from both the legal and conceptual aspect, it will be presented to the Optimus validators approval. Once the project is validated it will be able to start the sale.

Third Party Cryptocurrency Payments

Optimus has no control over the parties involved in Cryptocurrency transactions. Accordingly Optimus takes no liability for the delivery, quality, safety, legality or any other aspect of any goods or services that you may purchase or sell to or from a third party (including other users of Optimus Services). If you experience a problem with any goods or services purchased from, or sold to a third party in connection with Cryptocurrencies units transferred using the Optimus Services, or if you have a dispute with such a third party, you must resolve the dispute directly with that third party.

Operation of Cryptocurrency Protocols

By using the Optimus Platform, you acknowledge and agree (1) that Optimus is not responsible for operation of the underlying protocols and that Optimus makes no guarantee of their functionality, security, or availability; and (2) that the underlying protocols are subject to sudden changes in operating rules (known as "forks"), and that such forks may materially affect the value, function, and/or even the name of the Cryptocurrency you hold. In the event of a fork, you agree that Optimus may temporarily suspend Optimus operations (with or without advance notice to you) and that Optimus may, in its sole discretion, (1) configure or reconfigure its systems or (2) decide not to support (or cease supporting) the forked protocol entirely. You acknowledge and agree that Optimus assumes absolutely no responsibility whatsoever in respect of an unsupported branch of a forked protocol. Optimus does not automatically support so-called Cryptocurrency "forks" – technological alteration of initial Cryptocurrency's blockchain, which sets you solely liable for withdrawing the respective Cryptocurrencies from your accounts prior the "fork" event, in case you wish to avoid any risks related (including but not limiting – full or partial loss of your Cryptocurrency, significant decrease of value, etc.).
