Ready to launch your own DeFAI Agent? Check out IDO Mode on Agents(dot)land — your gateway to structured fundraising and fair launches, ensuring your project takes off with strong community backing and sustainable growth. Unlike Bonding Curve mode — which we’ll cover in a future article — this guide focuses on everything you need to know before getting started with IDO Mode, the exclusive launch path for DeFAI Agent tokens.

TL;DR

- IDO Mode is the exclusive launch mode for DeFAI Agent tokens on Agents(dot)land.
- Tokenomics: 75% for IDO, 16% for liquidity, 9% for creator and ecosystem allocations.
- Liquidity is paired with $SOL, $ORAI, and $MAX at migration.
- The creator sets a fundraising target before launch: from 500 $SOL to 5000 $SOL.

1. What is a DeFAI Agent?

Let’s start with the basics!

DeFAI isn’t just another crypto buzzword, it’s the fusion of AI and DeFi (Decentralized Finance), creating a whole new wave of on-chain automation.

Powered by Mesh (by Distilled AI), anyone can build, customize, and deploy a DeFAI Agent — an AI-driven bot that autonomously manages tasks like staking, liquidity management, and more, all within secure blockchain environments.

Our agents don’t just perform tasks — they are built to make decisions on their own and adapt. It’s a game-changer for how things are done in crypto and finance, and it’s definitely here to stay.

Tokenizing a DeFAI Agent is what unlocks its true potential — allowing it to fund its own on-chain operations and seamlessly integrate into the broad DeFi ecosystem. That’s where Agents(dot)land’s IDO Mode comes in to ensure a strong foundation by facilitating early adoption, fair distribution, and community-driven growth from day one.

2. Understanding the Tokenomics of IDO Mode on Agents(dot)land

The tokenomics behind the IDO Mode is carefully designed to ensure both creators and the community benefit from the launch. Here’s how the tokens are allocated:

5% for Creator Allocation with Vesting
The creator of the agent gets 5% of the total token allocation. However, the release of these tokens happens with milestones:

- +1% at TGE (Token Generation Event)
- +1% when the agent graduates
- The remaining tokens are unlocked when market caps of $5M, $10M, and $20M are achieved, with +1% for each cap.

1% for Distilled AI Treasury
2% for Strongbox Vault Airdrop
1% for DeFAI Agent Wallet
75% for IDO
A major portion of the tokens (75%) is set aside for the IDO, split between the Party Round and the Public Round. If the Party Round sells out, there’s no Public Round. But if there are tokens left, they will move to the Public Round, open to everyone.
16% for DEX Listing

3. IDO Mode: The Full Process

3.1. Before the Launch

Every great launch starts with proper preparation. Before diving into the Party Round, participants must secure their spot and show commitment to the project:

Lock $MAX: Users must lock their $MAX tokens in the Subscription Vault for 14 days to support the project and gain whitelist access.
24-Hour Countdown: Once the Subscription Vault’s TVL reaches a 5M $MAX soft cap, a 24-hour countdown starts, signaling the Party Round is about to begin.

3.2. During the Launch

Now it’s go-time. The Party Round opens, and early supporters get their chance to participate in a fair and structured token sale. Here’s what to expect:

Party Round: This round’s duration is determined by the agent creator: from 1 to 24 hours. Purchase allocation for the whitelisted is based on the ratio of locked $MAX, with no max cap per wallet.
Fixed Pricing: The price of tokens stays fixed within each round: the Party Round and the Public Round. With this, whitelisted users will get a fair chance to participate along the bonding curve.
Public Round: If the bonding curve isn’t completed by the end of the Party Round, the Public Round begins, with prices increasing by 20%.

Update 3/17/2025: In Case of Unsuccessful Bonding to DEX For IDO Mode Launches

Participants can sell their tokens after 7 days and receive the exact amount of SOL they initially invested. There is no price competition between sellers (no PvP). A 1% swap fee will be applied upon selling.

Important Note: If tokens were purchased at the Public Round’s price (which is 20% higher than the party price), they can only be sold at the Party Round’s price.

3.3. After the Launch

Graduation day has arrived! Your DeFAI Agent is now stepping into the open market. Here’s what happens next:

DEX Listing: Upon liquidity migration to DEX (Raydium on Solana & OraiDEX on Oraichain), the token price will be 20% higher than the Party Round price, matching the Public Round price.
Token Claiming: Users can claim their tokens either once the bonding curve is completed or 7 days after the Party Round begins (only if the curve hasn’t been completed earlier).

This mechanism prevents premature trading and dumping, ensuring a controlled launch and price stability.

4. Liquidity and Fundraising

The liquidity model and fundraising goals are key to ensuring the token has a smooth launch and proper backing. Here’s a breakdown:

Liquidity Distribution:

- 80% paired with $SOL
- 10% paired with $ORAI
- 10% paired with $MAX

Fundraising:

- The creator sets a fundraising target before launch, which ranges from 500 $SOL to 5000 $SOL.
- 25.6% of the raised funds will go toward the DEX listing.
- The remaining 74.4% will go toward funding the agent itself, ensuring that the agent can grow and evolve post-launch.
