Token Distribution

Fast, Safe and Secure Locks Solutions

Tokens are way too hard to set up and build trust around. We want to help companies grow faster and create game changing projects. That's why we created this affordable, easy to use, and flexible Solution.

Currently we offer 3 types of Locks, a simple lock, vested lock and multi lock.

How does Locks Work?

Imagine it as an automated time vault where users keep their tokens for periods of time. While the tokens are locked in the Vault, no one can access the tokens making them safe from any harm.

The owner of the Lock is the wallet which paid the gas fee to create it , however the current owner can transfer ownership of the Lock to other wallet.

What can you Lock?

- Liquidity

- Tokens

- NFTs

What is Liquidity and LP Tokens

Liquidity is the term used for locking tokens into a smart contract to facilitate trading on decentralized exchanges (DEXs).

Users contribute their assets to the pool, which enables others to trade against it. In return, contributors earn fees and, sometimes, liquidity provider tokens. This mechanism enhances market liquidity and allows decentralized trading without relying on traditional order book models.

Locking tokens or LP don’t affect the tokens or liquidity performance since the LP Tokens are just a representation of the liquidity.

Reasons Why You Should Lock & Vest Tokens

  • Show Proof of a Vesting Schedule and Interest in the Project;

  • Confidence in the Project's Long-term Potential;

  • Manage the Overall Tokens in Circulation;

  • Prevent Insider Trading.

Locking Tokens

Locking Tokens involve a user sending tokens to a smart contract. While inside the contract, tokens cannot be traded or withdrawn. Tokens are released once the time period the token sender established is complete.

This time-release is customizable, with the sender being able to choose the exact day and time they want the tokens to become available. This way, the community and investors are at less risk of scams.

Locking Liquidity

Locking liquidity is a mechanism that restricts the withdrawal of funds from a liquidity pool by holders of liquidity provider tokens (LP tokens). This is accomplished by transferring LP tokens to a smart contract with a time lock.

Once the lock expires, LP tokens can be claimed and redeemed for the corresponding token pair within the liquidity pool on a decentralized exchange (DEX) such as Uniswap (e.g. SWAP/ETH).

Vesting Tokens

Token vesting is a gradual access process for token holders, which may include private investors, employees, advisors, or venture capital firms.

When implementing token vesting, you have the option of employing linear vesting, where token holders receive a fixed percentage of their tokens on a monthly or yearly basis until full vesting, or opting for a vesting cliff, which designates a specific date for the release of all tokens.

This approach allows for automated distribution thanks to a vesting schedule that defines key terms, such as the vesting cliff and token release rate.

You can browse our Locks here, and if you cant find the lock you are looking for, try to search on the top right box for the locked token address or click on to check the locks you are elegible to.

The difference between a Lock and a Vesting is that in a Vesting you will see several unlocks such as the one above:

❓FAQ

How long should I lock my liquidity for?

The longer the better. Long-term locking of liquidity signals your commitment to delivering on what you have promised.

How much of my liquidity should I lock?

If you intend to be the main liquidity provider for a liquidity pool, we recommend locking 80-100% of the total pool value.

How can Vaults Solution help in preventing crypto scams?

A "rug-pull" occurs when project creators completely withdraw their Liquidity Pool tokens from a decentralized exchange pair.

Can I use the locking services if I didn’t create my token with Crypto Hub?

Yes. Our locking contracts are compatible with any token standard on the blockchain networks that we support.
