Skip to main contentThe Asset: Ownership Coins (OCs)
When you participate in a launch, you are not simply “buying a coin”.
- Authorized vs. Issued: 100% of Authorized Tokens represent 100% of the company’s future value. However, only a small fraction (typically ~5–7%) is issued at launch for public participation.
- Senior Debt Claim: Your OCs function as the instrument used to measure an obligation on the company’s future liquidity.
The Mechanics of Participation
Participation is handled through a streamlined “Swap” interface within the SOAR app.
- USD1 Entry: You swap your Solana-based USD1 directly for OCs through the platform’s integrated bonding curve.
- The “Burn the Boats” Integrity: Because SOAR enforces an FDV = Market Cap standard, you are protected from the “hidden supply” dilution found in other markets. There are no “team wallets” or venture unlocks that will dump on your position; the founders must request future tokens.
Safety Constraints: The 3-Month Freeze
To prevent predatory market manipulation and ensure founders focus on business building, every launch includes a mandatory Launch Freeze.
- Post-Launch Lock: For the first 90 days (3 months), additional tokens can not be minted.
- Incentive Alignment: This period ensures that the only path to value for both the founder and the participant is the long-term viability of the underlying startup, not short-term price speculation.
The Path to Exit (Liquidity Events)
Participation may conclude when the underlying business reaches a “Liquidity Event” (LE), such as an Acquisition, Series A/B/C funding, Exit, or Going Public.
- Automatic Settlement: Upon an LE, the company must pay a percentage of its total value back to SOAR. This percentage is measured by the circulating supply of the OC.
