We are thrilled to announce that Parallel’s on-chain ecological product, Crowdloan, based on Polkadot, has achieved remarkable success over the past two years. Among these, cDOT-6/13, cDOT-7/14, cDOT-8/15 and cDOT-9/16 corresponded to the following voting projects:

  • cDOT-6/13: Acala, Moonbeam, Astr, Parallel, Clovr
  • cDOT-7/14: HydraDX, Interlay, Phala
  • cDOT-8/15: Unique Network, Litentry, Bifrost
  • cDOT-9/16: Aventus

Through Parallel Crowdloan, users voted for these projects using DOT, and Parallel issued cDOT-6/13, cDOT-7/14, cDOT-8/15, and cDOT-9/16 certificates to these voting users.

The cDOT-6/13, cDOT-7/14, cDOT-8/15, and cDOT-9/16 Crowdloan businesses have now successfully completed their missions. We are proud of the success achieved and sincerely thank every user for their support and trust. Parallel will officially close the cDOT-6/13, cDOT-7/14, cDOT-8/15, and cDOT-9/16 related functions on August 1, 2024.

About cDOT Crowdloan

Parallel developed parallel Crowdloan based on the Polkadot chain. Previously, users could participate in Polkadot’s slot auctions by voting DOT in the Crowdloan and receiving cDOT certificates issued by Parallel. Holders of cDOT could trade in the secondary market or stake cDOT in the Parallel Money Market to participate in lending activities.

The slot leases of the voting projects corresponding to cDOT-6/13, cDOT-7/14, cDOT-8/15, and cDOT-9/16 have expired. Due to the high maintenance costs, Parallel has decided not to introduce new on-chain voting projects for cDOT-6/13, cDOT-7/14, cDOT-8/15, and cDOT-9/16. Parallel Crowdloan has enabled the redemption function for all users, allowing all holders of cDOT-6/13, cDOT-7/14, cDOT-8/15, and cDOT-9/16 to redeem them for the original DOT through the Parallel Crowdloan page.

As of July 19, 2024, there are still 179,920.8 cDOT-8/15 and 1,779.92 cDOT-9/16 on Parallel Crowdloan. We remind you once again that Parallel will cease maintenance and redemption of cDOT-6/13, cDOT-7/14, cDOT-8/15, and cDOT-9/16 in two weeks. To ensure the safety of your assets, please redeem them by August 1.
