Launchpad Participation Guide

This page describes the step-by-step process for utilizing our launchpad to buy and claim project tokens on Ethereum. We will soon be adding screenshots to the guide as well.

Accessing the Launchpad

The first step involves accessing the Launchpad. We recommend accessing from our page's link.

Please check the address in order to eliminate the risk of falling into a scam site.

Connect your Wallet.

The Launchpad should automatically make the connection request, if it doesn't, please select the top right button.

The OccamRazer Launchpad will initially support Metamask Wallet, but we are working towards adding several more. Please follow us on our social platforms to ensure you get the latest updates.

Pool information display

Now connected, you will be able to see the Current ('In Progress'), 'Finished', and 'Coming soon' Pools. The previewed information will include:

  • Status of the pool: In progress - Coming soon.

  • Time: Until it opens - Total time - Remaining time.

  • Whether it is Private or Public.

  • The Pool Profile Mechanics: Fixed Price - Ascending/Descending Dynamics/Auctions, etc.

  • Whether the project has been Verified by OccamRazer or not.

  • Caps: Soft and hard.

  • The current Accepted token to Pool token ratio.

When selecting a pool, an in-depth explanation on Pool and Token details, as well as Team and project information is available. Further information includes Total Supply, minimum and maximum contribution, and projects sites, whitepaper and audit links. We recommend our users to carry out diligent research before investing.

Buying the Token

Once inside the desired Token Pool, click on the "Buy" button. It will be located on the left side, along with your pool and wallet balances. Once the assigned amount has been decided, all that is left is Buy the Pool token and Approve the transaction in your Metamask wallet.

Claim your tokens

Once the pool time closes, either because it was fully subscribed or the time for fundraising has ended, you will be able to claim the tokens you bought by simply clicking on the 'Claim' button.

Bear in mind that you can claim your tokens at any time, not only immediately after the pool has closed. Bought tokens will remain claimable indefinitely, secured by the smart contract until you are ready. This helps in allowing the user to better assess networks fees costs.

Verifying token ownership

Once the transaction is confirmed (and the tokens have been claimed) on the Ethereum blockchain you should be able to see the respective amount of the project token in your wallet. If for some reason that is not the case, make sure that the transaction was successful and add the token to your wallet.

Secondary trading

We are now aware that our project has been receiving more interest than anticipated. Because of this, we decided to fund a OCC/USDC pool in Uniswap, where those who didn't get a chance to acquire OCC tokens in the public sale can do so. We hope this can balance the scale and open the possibilities to all those who want to give OccamRazer their support.

Reminders and final remarks

Here are some reminders that you should keep in mind when investing in projects:

  • Beware of scams: Investing in the initial phases of projects is not without risks just because it is done in a decentralized manner. The amounts raised may be an incentive for malicious players, so please be careful!

  • Check the gas fees and the slippage settings. Even though several projects give a reasonable window of time (2 days) for investing, wanted projects may reach their desired amounts or be hard-capped before that time, so having your transaction stuck for hours may leave you without an opportunity. Similarly, one should mind not overpay for transactions because of typo errors.

  • Do not rush to buy, but don't be late. Depending on the funding profile mechanics, jumping in too early can result in value loss. On the other hand, being late may result in high token prices, or directly prevent you from entering.

  • Don't create pools in any DEX before the events are finished and watch out for Impermanent Loss!
