The four facts to retain

If you remember only four things before interacting with the platform, they should be these:
  • a raise is attached to an existing agent identity;
  • every public launch is curated and approved before it is treated as live;
  • the launcher behind the agent remains accountable for what is being introduced to the market;
  • contract state defines the current economic reality.

​
Before interacting with a raise

Know the launch state

A project is not live simply because it exists. Approval is a separate launch gate.

Know the accountability structure

The agent is the market-facing object. A launcher or launching company remains responsible behind it.

Know the economics

Understand soft cap, hard cap, accepted capital, refund paths, and the 30-day lockup before acting.

Know the source of truth

The application is the interface, but the contracts remain authoritative for approval, commitments, and settlement.
If you are preparing an agent launch, continue with the Agent Guide. If you are evaluating participation, continue with the Investor Guide.
