Validator rewards

A full 50% of our token supply is reserved to reward our validator node operators for collecting, formatting, validating, publishing and archiving real-world data for consumption as eUTXO datum by Cardano dApps and smart contracts.

This allocation is meant to subsdize operations long enough for the network to become self-sustaining based on fee collection. This allocation is a serious signal that Orcfax understands a healthy, thriving validator pool network is required for the long-term viability and value of the network.

ISPO

An Initial Stakepool Offering (ISPO) is a mechanism popular within the Cardano blockchain community. The basic principle is that ADA delegators forego their ADA staking rewards each epoch in return for a proportionate share of the project token.

Orcfax successfully ran a fully-subscribed ISPO in March 2023. The cliff date for the first ISPO drops is September 2023. 10% of the FACT token supply is allocated to ISPO participants.

Launchpad & LP Bootstrapping

Orcfax used the Wingriders Launchpad to introduce the FACT token to the open market and make it available for circulation. This launchpad supports a decentralized and non-custodial method for initial price discovery.

86,000,000 (8.6%) FACT is allocated as collateral for ADA contributed by Launchpad participants. 24,000,000 (2.4%) is allocated for bootstrapping the first liquidity pool on the Wingriders DEX which will follow the launchpad.

The 86 million Launchpad FACT tokens have no cliff and/or vesting restrictions. They can be claimed in full as soon as the launchpad closes.

The 24 million FACT tokens used to bootstrap the Liquidity Pool will have a cliff date of 6 months after the Launchpad closes (12 months from the start of the ISPO) and a one month vesting period.

Yield Farming APY

20,000,000 (2%) FACT tokens are used to enhance the appeal of our liquidity pool(s) by offering substantial Yield Farming Rewards to our liquidity providers.
