Eclipse Pad: A Customizable Launchpad for Cross-Chain Liquidity

Eclipse Pad is a launchpad that offers projects the flexibility and a diverse range of options for launching their tokens and bootstrapping liquidity. Unlike conventional launchpads, Eclipse Pad is designed with modularity in mind, enabling projects to customize their token launches based on their unique requirements. Additionally, it serves as the first launchpad for the Cosmos ecosystem and Sei Network, making it a key player in the world of decentralized finance.

Why Cosmos?

The Eclipse Pad team chose to focus on Cosmos as their starting point because they believe it has a lot of potential that hasn’t been fully realized yet. There are many developers building in Cosmos and IBC technology is cutting-edge. There are 50+ chains and over 300+ currently in building stages, but still no launchpads, and very few token launching options. Their plan is to establish themselves in the Cosmos ecosystem first, before then expanding to other cross-chain networks.

Why do we need a launchpad in Cosmos when there are airdrops?

Airdrops have been a popular way to distribute tokens in Cosmos and grow a project’s initial community. However, they come with a range of challenges. Targeting users is often difficult, and airdrops can end up in the hands of bots or sybil accounts. Additionally, free airdrops are often quickly sold, leading to price volatility.

However, airdrops are still a valuable method for launching a token. At Eclipse Pad, they plan to offer airdrops as an option in their launch flows. They believe that a combination of airdrops and other launch methods can be effective in launching a token successfully. Launchpads, when done well can offer better targeting of users and can help projects raise funds and bootstrap their token liquidity on launch.

Will Eclipse Pad build its own chain?

Yes, Eclipse Pad has a roadmap for developing its own Cosmos SDK chain. This will provide them with greater customization options at the chain level. Their first step is to expand across the Cosmos ecosystem and establish a series of chains with diverse ecosystems of dApps. These outposts will help them grow their presence within the Cosmos community and provide them with valuable insights to further enhance their development efforts.

Will you launch for chains outside of Cosmos?

Yes, Eclipse Pad has future plans to expand beyond just the Cosmos ecosystem. They believe in the importance of a multi-chain future and ensuring a consistent flow of high-quality projects. As such, they will explore opportunities to expand to other blockchain networks in the future. In addition, they have established strong connections with large web2 companies and startup accelerators that are looking to integrate web3 into their models. This is a direction they plan to accommodate for in the future.

How will the launch model work?

The Eclipse Pad launch model offers a variety of launch modules that can be selected by projects to design their launch strategy. These modules include IDOs and auctions for fundraising, and Lockdrop, LBP, and LBA, and more for liquidity bootstrapping. Projects have the flexibility to tailor their launch strategy according to their specific needs. For instance, they can choose to initiate an airdrop, followed by an IDO, and then a lockdrop to incentivise participants to pledge their acquired or bought tokens into liquidity and earn more rewards.

Will there be a whitelist?

In the Eclipse Pad launch model, whitelists will be a crucial tool for incentivizing long-term committed users and filtering out bots. The specifics of how whitelists are implemented may vary depending on the chosen launch mechanism. However, in general, whitelists will be used to provide early, expanded, or exclusive access to launch events. This could include providing allocations in whitelist IDO rounds or granting larger allocations or earlier access

How to Join Ambassador Program?
