The FLDT Liquidity Bootstrapping Event (LBE) on Minswap kicked off on January 18th, gaining immediate popularity. With a soft cap of 4,000,000 ADA and a hard cap of 8,000,000 ADA, participants were enticed by the fair launch of the token and the substantial allocation of supply dedicated to the event, which stood at an impressive 32% of all FLDT tokens. This article delves into FLDT, its token launch, and more.

FLDT LBE

FluidTokens launched their Cardano Native Token FLDT on Minswaps LaunchPad known as the LaunchBowl, through what is known as a Liquidity Bootstrapping Event. The LBE was divided into two phases, the discovery phase, and the encounter phase.

The discovery phase is the first phase and started on January 18th, 2024, at 3 am UTC. During the first portion of the LBE, participants were able to deposit ADA and contribute towards the bootstrapping of the token’s initial liquidity on the Minswap DEX. Users received FluidADA in exchange for their deposited ADA, representing their contribution to the LBE. The event was set to end on January 22nd at 3 am UTC or if the hard cap of the LBE is reached, in this case, 8,000,000 ADA. Many in the Cardano community took interest in the event, and the maximum contribution limit was reached on the same day.

The Encounter Phase then started at 12 pm UTC on January 18th. During the second part of the liquidity bootstrapping event, participants were able to claim LP tokens and a bonus NFT in exchange for their FluidADA. Event participants were then able to deposit their liquidity tokens and bonus NFT and start partaking in the FLDT triple farm. Liquidity providers participating in the FLDT will receive farming rewards in the form of ADA, MIN, and FLDT.
