Introducing Bonds by Finceptor

Bond is a new way to invest in exchange-listed tokens at a discount with a short-term vesting schedule. The vesting term is linear in unit time (i.e., every second), allowing investors to withdraw their tokens as they become unlocked.

Bond Types

  • Fixed: Sales with a fixed discount rate and a fixed vesting period.

  • Dynamic: Sales with a discount rate ranging from 10% to 20% and a vesting period that correlates with the discount rate, typically between 5 and 10 days.

Fixed Bond

A fixed-term bond is a type of bond in which the discount rate and corresponding vesting term don't change during the sale. For example, a bond sale with a 10% discount and a 5-day vesting period, where both the discount rate and the vesting remain unchanged.

Dynamic Bond

A dynamic bond is a type of bond in which the discount rate and corresponding vesting term change over the sale. The bond sale starts with an initial discount and corresponding vesting term. As users buy bond tokens, i.e., demand increases, and the discount rate and corresponding vesting term decrease linearly.

Example 1: As an example, the bond sale starts with a 20% discount from the current market price with a linear vesting period of 10 days. As demand increases, the discount percentage and vesting period decrease. For example, as the sale progresses, the discount rate decreases to 19% with a 9.5-day linear vesting, then to 18% with a 9-day linear vesting, and so on, until it reaches a final stage of a 10% discount and a 5-day linear vesting. In this case, the tokens will be sold at an average discount of 15% and a vesting period of 7.5 days.

Suppose a bond with an initial discount rate of 20% and an end discount rate of 10%. Suppose that 1,000,000 tokens are for sale. If a user wants to purchase 500,000 tokens, the discount rate will be 17.5%. Since the user wants to purchase 50% of the bond supply, the first 250,000 tokens will be subjected to a 20% discount, and the remaining 250,00 tokens will be subjected to a 5% discount. By averaging those discount rates, the final discount rate will be a 17.5% discount. Then, 8.75 days of linear vesting is applied.

Note that the tokens' vesting starts at the moment of purchase. For example, 50% of the tokens will be unlocked in the middle of the vesting.

How Can I Participate in Bond Sales?

To participate in the Bonds on Finceptor, you need to stake $FINC to get an allocation and complete KYC. For every bond, users can see the eligibility requirements on the bond page. For example, users need to have 1k Points to participate in Bonds and 10k Points to participate in Refundable Bonds with minimum allocation.

Hence, the required $FINC stake points may change from one Bond sale to another. Anyone who stakes the required amount of $FINC and completes KYC grants access to the bond sale. Users can invest any amount they desire as long as it is equal to or below the specified maximum limit for their Tiers.

Then, for every bond sale, connect your Web3 wallet, enter the desired amount up to your allocation limit, and click on the "bond" button to complete the purchase. Don't forget to have $BNB in your web3 wallet for network fees.

Claiming

After making your purchase, you can go to the Claim tab by clicking on the "Claim" button in the upper right of the tab. Here, you can see the amount of tokens you can withdraw over time. By clicking the "Claim" button and confirming the withdrawal from your Web3 wallet, you can withdraw your unlocked tokens to your Web3 wallet and use them as you wish.

FAQ

I had staked 500 $FINC in the locked staking pool, and the required amount of $FINC to participate in a Bond sale was announced as 2000 $FINC. If I stake an additional 1500 $FINC in another staking pool, can I access the Bond sale, or should all 2000 tokens be in the same pool?

It is not necessary for all the tokens you have staked to be in the same pool. As long as the total staked amount in pools is equal to or greater than the minimum Tier point amount, you can participate in Bond sales. Please beware of Refundable Bond's requirements; only locked-staking users can participate in Refundable Bonds.

You announced two Bond sales, one requiring 500 $FINC and the other 2000 $FINC. Do I need to stake a total of 2500 $FINC to participate in both?

No, when you stake 2000 $FINC, you gain the right to participate in both.

Is there a separate staking pool for participating in Bond sales, or is it sufficient to stake in normal staking pools?

No, we do not have a separate pool for Bond sales. Staking the specified amount of $FINC in either flexible or locked staking pools is sufficient for participation in Bond sales. By staking in flexible or locked pools, you can earn staking rewards, gain allocations for IDOs, and participate in Bond sales.

Are Bond purchases made with $FINC?

No, purchases are made with USDT on the BNB chain.
