Delivery types

A delivery type tells the system how to distribute claimed assets and new tokens. Tweet.fund may offer some of the following packages.

Community

A community deal balances liquidity and treasury. It is a good choice for a decentralized product and community.

Of the new tokens:

• 52% go to the treasury

• 40% are sold

• 8% go to the liquidity pool

Of the claimed assets

• 60% go to the treasury

• 40% go to liquidity

Bonus multiple = 5, with a starting bonus of 400%, and an average bonus of 101%. This creates an aggressive bonding curve that rewards early action.

Maximum claim is unlimited. This is a SNOWBALL deal. A snowball can melt away, or it can grow and grow as the weight of the ball makes it stickier. As a snowball deal grows bigger, early stakers move up the bonus curve and get bigger bonuses. This makes it stickier for them, and gives them an incentive to promote the deal. A snowball deal has a steep bonus curve, starting at 400%, and an unlimited maximum.

Meme

A meme deal brings together a community to trade a high float, low FDV launch. It eliminates the need for ongoing governance of a treasury by sending all assets to an AMM pool. The Tweet.fund version of a meme launch eliminates losses for stakers who support deals that do not close.

Of the new tokens:

• 64% are sold

• 32% go to the liquidity pool

• 4% go to the treasury as a sponsor reward

Of the claimed assets

• 100% of claims go to an AMM pool to provide liquidity

Bonus multiple = 5, with a starting bonus of 400%, and an average bonus of 101%. This creates an aggressive bonding curve that rewards early action.

By default, maximum claim = minimum claim. Close it with a limited size, and move to trading.

Syndicate

A syndicate raises money to invest in a startup. The arbitrator holds assets in the treasury for up to 30 days after closing, so that the sponsor has time to negotiate a deal. If the negotiation fails, then stakers get a refund. We need syndicates because founders don’t want to risk their reputation on fundraising. They know that most deals don’t succeed at first, and this can create “negative signaling”. A syndicate leader can create positive signaling by writing a compelling story and marketing it.

Of the new tokens

• 96% are sold. Tokens are delivered from the investment target

• 4% go to the treasury for the syndicate organizer

Of the claimed assets

• 100% go to the treasury

Bonus multiple = 1.25, with a starting bonus of 25% and an average bonus of 11.6%

Maximum claim = minimum claim

Venture

A venture deal takes all claimed assets for the treasury to fund a new project. It locks the delivered tokens.

Of the new tokens:

• 30% are sold. These tokens are delivered to buyers and vote in governance. However, they are not transferable for the first year, and transfers unlock linearly over the second year.

• 70% stay in the treasury

Of the claimed assets:

• 100% go to the treasury

Bonus multiple = 2, with a starting bonus of 100%, and an average bonus of 39%. This approximately matches the incentives of a moving SAFE cap.

Maximum claim = 2*minimum.

Floating Fund

A floating fund takes 100% of claimed assets into the treasury, sells 90% of its tokens with full transferability, and offers 10% of the tokens in an AMM as single-sided liquidity, at prices greater than the closing price. It is designed to offer meme-stye upside (like DAOS.fun) and protect users from downside with an option to redeem assets from the treasury.

Of the new tokens:

• 90% are sold

• 10% go to an AMM with pricing from the starting value to infinity. They make a profit for the fund if they are sold.

Of the claimed assets:

• 100% go to the treasury

Bonus multiple =1, with no bonus. Every buyer gets a fair share of the assets.

Maximum claim = minimum claim

Buyout pool

A buyout pool is an efficient way to gather funds to buy a company or asset. Structurally, it is the same as a syndicate, with no bonus.

Equity with tokenization

Sell regulated equity with packages from popular tokenization platforms. The protocol passes a successful deal to the tokenizer for buyer qualification, fulfillment of reporting and securities rights, and token delivery. Only qualified buyers get swaps at the close. Other stakers can sell or redeem their stakes. Stay tuned for tokenization partners.

Custom

Surge offers deals with custom parameters including private allocations, unlimited time to close, custom bonus or no bonus, buyer qualification, and securities delivery
