Valuation

Round valuation comparables

The valuation of XBorg’s Seed round is derived from comparable rounds that were raised in 2022 and 2023, including Kapital DAO, Polemos, Galxe, IndieGG, Lens Protocol, Avocado DAO, Chiliz, Matchbox, and Banger Games, among others. A detailed analysis of the token valuation can be found in our due diligence report, which can be obtained upon filling up the interest form here.

Of the purchased tokens, 10% will be unlocked at TGE, with the remainder of the tokens being vested for a period of 18 months after a 3-month lock period. However, please consider that exchange listings requirements may alter the locking and vesting schedule of $XBG.

Token utilities

The $XBG token is the utility token of the XBorg and serves as the primary value transfer within the XBorg ecosystem. The token is an ERC-20 token with a total supply of 1 billion that will be deployed to Ethereum and bridged to L2s such as Polygon. The token will have a series of ecosystem utilities that are illustrated in the Public Deck, but a summary can be found below:

In-app payments and platform fees

Payments and transactions on the protocol will use $XBG, with associated fees. In the use-case where USDC is used to make payment on XBorg-powered apps, XBorg will purchase the equivalent of $XBG on the open market.

Governance

At TGE, the $XBG token will be used for governance actions in the XBorg DAO, giving holders the rights to vote on key decisions regarding the development of the protocol.

Staking

Of the fees and revenues paid in XBG, 50% are allocated for the staking reward pool. The amount of staking rewards received is determined by the duration of the lockup period and the individual’s status within the protocol.

Protocol Access

Some functionalities and utilities of the protocol are subject to access restrictions based on the quantity of $XBG held and the user’s status within the protocol.

Gas token

Upon release and traction of the on-chain Gaming Credential Network, XBorg will develop its Borg, a Polygon supernet with $XBG as a gas token. Details about the Borg chain will be shared in the future.

TGE

The $XBG TGE is planned for the end of 2023. Before launching, a public fundraising will occur via a Liquidity Bootstrapping Pool (LBP) with a token price of $0.5.

Use of funds

The raised funds are to be allocated over the course of three years, assisting ecosystem growth and scaling in terms of marketing and the growth of our team seen below:
