Q1: The Instaraise protocol is a significant step towards the creation of a truly interoperable decentralized financial ecosystem. In this same context, what would be the main competitors of Instaraise currently present in the market?

Dibyo: We are the first in the Tezos Space but there is a scope for other cross-chain IDO platforms to jump in here also.

But we make sure that all the community we gather in is the best set of investors and we always have an edge of any of our competitions in terms of Community and in Tems of Tech

  • we make sure our methodologies are incentivising enough to keep up the enthu of our users and keep Trust on us ..

Q2: Can you give information about the conditions that users must meet in order to participate in the IDOs you will organize? Will you demand KYC and participation fee from the participants?

Dibyo: Yes, we respect the regulations that are there country wise and there is a KYC requirement needed for taking part in the SAles we conduct.

All the unauthorised countries will not be able to take part in the private allocation and sales … But everyone can take leverage bu tranding and consuming INSTA tokens.

Q3: There are so many pervasive problems with projects and IDOs platforms today, What problems does INSTARISE are trying to solve,,in the crypto space..Are exit scams and rug pulls one of the problems you plan to solve? This is one of the biggest problems right now

Dibyo: We solve the problem of Exit Scams and rug-pull with our Automated Liquidity Locking and Transparent Presales Facilitation bringing an Utmost trust within the investors.
The LP Tokens are locked in our contract safely so that investors make sure that their Tokens remains liquid for a predefined amount of time ( as promised by project owner ) we ensure that happens in a trustless manner

Q4: The HOLDers of INSTA Tokens are the ones who have tha guranteed allocation in the presales as per the Pool Weighted Scores.
How can one increase his weighted score?
Does the token have other utilities like
Staking &LP Farming ?

Dibyo: Not the HOLDers of INSTA but the STakers of INSTA have the leverage to get an allocation in the private sale

One way to get higher Pool Weight score is to stake a higher amount of INSTA or The ppl who are staking INSTA for more time also get’s a leverage with the time.
The time weight is explained here : https://medium.com/instaraise-official/instaraise-token-allocation-tiers-e386f9fbcc0d

Q5: Generally, instaraise-style platforms focus on large investors. What kind of value does instaraise provide to small investors, unlike other platforms? What ways do you follow to announce your project to small investors and involve them in your project?

Dibyo: That’s really something that we have focused on while creating our weighted sceme of Pool weight score. Investors with as low as $200 worth INSTA Staked will get a guranteed allocation in the private sale making sure there are always into the Game !

This is how we give the leverage to the retail investors to be a part of the SALE 🙂

And our automated liquidity addition provision makes sure there is no rug pulls

Q7: How you assures your users that Instaraise’s Platform is completely Decentralised in terms of handling end-to-end processing of the presale. From the Sale creation to the Funds withdraw by the owner ?
