The $SIDE LBP will last for a total of 7 days. We’ve observed that many users made purchases early. Please note that the LBP mechanism is intentionally designed with a high initial price, which will gradually decrease as liquidity pool weights adjust.

To reward those who participated early, we have decided to double the token rewards for users who made purchases before Nov 26, 2024, 10:00 AM UTC.

Additionally, from Nov 26, 2024, 10:00 AM UTC to Nov 27, 2024, 10:00 AM UTC, we will double the reward for the user who accumulates the most $SIDE tokens during each hour.

The list of eligible users will be published after this period to ensure full transparency.

What’s Next?

• Genesis Drop tokens will be fully unlocked.
• The public offering is canceled, and no tokens will be launched on Solana.
• Testnet users who didn’t link their Bitcoin address can resubmit it before Dec 10.

Just In: We’ve announced the mainnet on X following the successful DKG and post-launch testing.

A huge thanks to everyone who has been with us from the start!

But this is really just the beginning for Side. The Side Chain launch is a small first step - expect more product rollouts, third-party integrations, and ecosystem growth in the coming months.

We’re excited to keep building with you!

We’d really appreciate it if you could help spread the word—quote, reply, and repost!
