Mover IDO goes live on December 15 at 3 pm UTC (15:00 UTC). In previous articles, we described how to get IDO Passes and use them to get on the Whitelist to participate in the IDO on the most favorable terms.

Before we continue, let us briefly recap what you need to do to participate:

  1. Get your Base Mover IDO Pass on Galxe (details on claiming this and higher tier passes can be found here)
  2. Get added to the Whitelist (detailed instructions here)
  3. On December 15th at 18:00 UTC, go to https://ido.mov3r.xyz and grab your $MOVERs!

In this article, we will go through the details of what you need to do on December 15th and the price advantage your pass will give you.

The First Cross-chain IDO on Aptos

Mover is a next-gen cross-chain messaging protocol, and creating a seamless experience across blockchains is in our DNA. Thus, it’s no wonder that we will have the first cross-chain IDO on Aptos. You can purchase $MOVER tokens on any of the 5 networks with any of the 9 tokens:

  • Aptos (APT)
  • Ethereum (USDT, USDC)
  • Polygon (USDT, USDC)
  • Arbitrum (USDT, USDC)
  • Binance Smart Chain (USDT, BUSD)

$MOVER Price

$MOVER pricing model reflects our commitment to a fair launch with healthy and sustainable token price dynamics. At the same time, we wanted to ensure that the most active and engaged Mover supporters would have the best possible conditions in terms of allocation size and token price.

$MOVER token price will follow a bonding curve. The idea behind a bonding curve is quite simple: the more tokens have been distributed, the higher the price. So it makes sense to buy early to secure a better price.

The bonding curve will start at $0.27 and with each token bought it will gradually increase to $0.40. In other words,

  • $MOVER starting price: $0.27
  • $MOVER final price: $0.40

The shape of the curve is shown below. Please note that the price on the curve is displayed in APT and depends on the APT/USD exchange rate.

The curve for $MOVER prices in APT tokens.

The price curve is defined by the logarithmic function: start_value + log(x/curve_factor, log_base) * end_factor. This function and parameters were selected to ensure that the curve grows smoothly and everyone can buy on fair terms.

Allocations and timings

The total amount of $MOVERs on sale will be 2,500,000 and the sale will last for 24 hours.

When and how much you can buy is determined by your IDO Pass. The table below shows allocation sizes and timings for Mover IDO Pass holders. Please note the time for your pass below:

For more information on how to get a higher tier pass, see the article about Mover IDO Passes.

Mover’s total public sale is 3 million tokens, but only 2.5 million will be sold on December 15th. Because this is a community sale on our own platform, these 2.5 million tokens will be sold at lower prices. The remaining 0.5 million will be sold later on our partners’ launchpads, but at a higher price.
