Pontem Nox

Pontem network is the first (and only) project aiming to bridge permissioned and public blockchain ecosystems that will allow for the exchange of data and value between these two metaverses.

Nox is Pontem’s incentivized ‘canary’ network where code and features will first ship for the Pontem Network. It’s a no-limits permissionless network that will serve as a sandbox for integrating regulatory compliance and regulatory compliant bridge to Pontem on Polkadot.

Sora

SORA is both a supranational global economic system that decentralizes the concept of a central bank and a Polkadot ecosystem network that will connect to the Polkadot relay chain and the parachains with built-in DeFi tools. SORA has been scheduled to become a parachain of both Kusama and Polkadot from the first announcement of Polkaswap. The first parachain of the SORA ecosystem on Kusama has finally arrived.

Token: XOR coin

Total supply: Supply is elastically managed by a token bonding curve smart contract with buy and sell price functions.

Reward pool: It is suggested that 5000 XOR be minted, 2000 XOR will be used to purchase PSWAP, 2000 XOR will be used to purchase VAL, and 500 XOR will be used to purchase XSTUSD. The PSWAP, VAL, and XSTUSD will then be vested to reward crowdloan contributors, while the remaining 500 XOR will be delivered unvested.

Reward Model: Total rewards received will be determined by the amount raised and distributed equally based on donations; a hard cap of 100,000 KSM is expected.

Vesting

Rewards will be vested in a linear fashion every day, beginning with the SORA network update that initiates reward vesting and terminating at around the expiration time of the SORA Kusama parachain lease.

Bonus Rewards

SORA, unlike some other crypto projects, aspires for a more egalitarian and economically sustainable reward distribution, hence no whale bonuses are offered. Everyone who contributes KSM to the SORA parachain crowdloan will be rewarded equitably and on-chain, with no backdoor transactions.

Pichiu

Pichiu represents Kylin’s Network canary parachain on Kusama. Its main goal is to use Kusama to construct a cross-chain platform that will power the data economy. The network will deliver data sources and data analytics that are legitimate, dependable, secure, cost-effective, and easy to coordinate.
