FAQ
Decentralized Autonomous Organization is a specific form of organization, where the activities of the participants are coordinated without central control, using algorithms. In the crypto-industry, DAOs operate on smart contracts.Read more in our Blog.
For each project we create a sub-DAO, a separate structure within our DAO. When you invest, you transfer cryptocurrency to this sub-DAO, and in return you get LP-tokens of the project. LP-tokens mean how much money you invested from the total amount of allocation.
When the project's allocation is closed, the USDT from the sub-DAO is sent to the startup's wallet. The startup in turn sends the project's tokens to the sub-DAO. Thanks to the smart contract, you are automatically allocated a share of the tokens in proportion to the number of LP tokens you have.
When the project's allocation is closed, the USDT from the sub-DAO is sent to the startup's wallet. The startup in turn sends the project's tokens to the sub-DAO. Thanks to the smart contract, you are automatically allocated a share of the tokens in proportion to the number of LP tokens you have.
In this case we do:
- Close the Launchpad.
- Burn unsold LP tokens
- Move the funds raised from the fund's DAO wallet to the startup's wallet.
At Afford.Capital there is a constant scouting and selection of projects.
We have 3 stages of evaluation:
We have 3 stages of evaluation:
- The startup fills out an application and is pre-scored on 30 parameters, mainly to understand if it fits our investment focus.
- The fund team performs the 220-parameter fundamental analysis, which is much more than a short due diligence.
- We perform an internal comprehensive security check.
