Capital formation starts with a story
Start fundraising with a tweet. The app will make a deal that collects funds ("stakes") for seven days.
Stake tokens to buy deals you like. The earlier you stake, the bigger the bonus. Unstake at any time before closing.
On closing, Tweet.fund will create tokens, an AMM pool for trading, and a multisig treasury that holds the remaining assets.
If your deal goes to closing, congratulations!
You can cancel the deal if you think it will be difficult to deliver. Stakers will take back their stakes.
Contact the Tweet.fund team on Discord to get access to the treasury and start building.
Select "Skip the tweet" from the bottom of the deal start form.
Write a description of your deal in markdown format.
Upload a picture to to represent your deal. You will get good results from a square 800x800 image.
Cut and paste the URL of a tweet in the deal start form.
The app will make a deal image and a deal description from the tweet. You will get good results if you use a tweet that has an attached image.
You can make a deal from your own tweet.
You can also make a deal from a tweet that someone else posted. Maybe the tweet describes a good idea, and you can run with it. Maybe the tweet is from founders who do not want to risk their reputations on fundraising until success is more certain. You can step in as the leader of an outside investor syndicate , and test the appetite for participation, and give the project some visibility.
Name: The title of the deal on the deal card.
Image: Select the "Upload" button to replace the deal image. This image represents the deal on deal cards, social links, and as the NFT image for stake NFTs. You will get good results with an 800x800 image.
Description: The description of the deal in markdown format. Please edit it to include status, team, links, emoji font icons, and the economics of the deal. You can post the same content to introduce your deal in Telegram. You can edit the description after you post the deal to keep people updated.
Minimum: The minimum number of payment tokens that must be staked at closing, in order for the deal to succeed and claim the stakes.
Payment token: The token that people will stake to buy the deal. Select from "options". The app handles the most popular USD, ETH, and BTC tokens on the chain where your deal is posted.
Delivery type: Tell the system how to deliver tokens and claims after a succesful closing. Learn more about delivery types here.
Connect a wallet and select the "Deploy Deal" button. Sign a transaction. This transaction will deploy a new Deal contract from the Tweet.fund deal factory. The deal will appear on the Tweet.fund home page.
You will be redirected to the Deal Sponsor app. You can find links to share, edit the description, cancel the deal.
You can return to your deal sponsor interface with the My Deals link on top of the app home page.
Share links to the deal card or the staking page in your social media. Post a link to the deal as a reply to the original tweet. Post the deal to your Twitter timeline.
Add a stake to get a place in line to buy a deal, with bonuses for early action. You can unstake at any time beore closing. If the deal holds the minimum required stakes at closing time, it will claim and swap your assets for new tokens. You can recover any unclaimed assets with no cost.
Add a stake with the form at the bottom of the deal description on the staking page.
Get paid for being early, and for doing the hard work to build momentum for a successful closing. For example, in the "community" deal delivery, the first staker gets a 400% bonus, declining to 0% for the last stake. When the deal gets bigger, a stake moves earlier in the list, and the bonus gets bigger. You can see the bonus amount for your stake on the attached bonus graph.
By default, bonuses are calculated with a linear discount curve. Some deals may use a different type of, or no bonus (represented as a multiple of 1).
You can unstake at any time until closing and get your assets back. Find your stake in the "My Stakes" tab under the deal. Select "Unstake".
You can also Unstake or "Get" with no fee if your stakes are not swapped at closing. You can unstake with no fee if the deal is canceled.
The deal will charge a fee of 2% if you unstake before the closing time. This fee is designed to discourage people and bots from placing big (and confusing) stakes to grab bonuses, even if they are not very interested in holding through closing.
Find your stakes with the "My stakes" link on top of the home page.
Your stake is represented by an NFT. This NFT holds your assets with an attached "token bound account". If you transfer the NFT, you transfer the staked assets, and the place in line that earns a bonus.
If the deal closes successfully, you will get tokens.
If the deal does not get the minimum stakes required for a close, you should take back your staked assets. If your stake was not claimed and swapped because it was over the maximum, you should take back your staked assets.
Use the "My stakes" link on top of the home page to find your stakes. Navigate to your stake and Unstake, or go to the TBA view and "Get" all tokens.
You do not know and trust everyone that posts a deal. So, we need to add some protections for investors. With protections in place, we can build trust and collaboration as the deal progresses. The protocol includes several layers of protection.
Featured deals are qualified by our arbitrators. They have reliable, reachable, and committed founders. They are designed to offer token holders good economics and governance.
The are designed and to give stakers a lot of ways to get money back.
Stakers can "unstake" any time before closing.
Stakers can "unstake" from any canceled deal. The protocol, the arbitrator, and the deal sponsor can cancel a deal at any time if they see problems.
Deals are canceled 7 days after closing. So, if a deal closes and something does not work correctly in the delivery, stakers can unstake.
The only time that the smart contract will send assets to someone that is not the staker is in the seven days after a successful closing. In this case, the smart contract will run a delivery process to swap assets, and it will send the "claimed" or swapped stakes to an arbitrator address.
Tweet.fund stakers are staking into their own wallet. The protocol adds the staked assets to a "token bound account" that is attached to an NFT, and puts that NFT into the staker's wallet. The NFT holds a place line to buy the deal, before there is a transaction. It postpones accounting, legal, and compliance obligations until deal closing.
On closing, assets go to a multisig treasury that is controlled by an arbitrator. This makes it difficult for an insincere sponsor to get money. The arbitrator can manually refund assets. The arbitrator will hand off the assets to the deal sponsor when the sponsor demonstrates reliability and governance that protects buyers. Learn more about this way of building .
A reliable ICO process needs
Governance to protect token buyers
Tools and liability protection for deal sponsors
On successful closing, some staked assets and new tokens go into an AMM pool to provide liquidity for everyone. In a meme project, most assets go to the AMM or buyers, and no further governance is needed.
The remaining claimed assets and new tokens go to a multisig treasury. The treasury is initially controlled by signers from an arbitrator. The default arbitrator is the Sweepr Foundation. The arbitrator protects the token buyers and the deal sponsor.
The arbitrator distributes tokens to buyers and the AMM pool
The arbitrator can distribute tokens to founders with lockups
The arbitrator can work with the sponsor to select and register a legal wrapper that provides liability protection and governance
The arbitrator hands off control of the treasury
A delivery type tells the system how to distribute claimed assets and new tokens. Tweet.fund may offer some of the following packages.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
Surge offers deals with custom parameters including private allocations, unlimited time to close, custom bonus or no bonus, buyer qualification, and securities delivery
