Unlock schedules have been determined to reduce the risk of a sudden dump of the token and to filter out participants looking for quick speculatory gains. Instead, they are designed to draw investors who are really interested in $NERD’s long-term success.

Strong cliffs have been applied for strategic partners, team, and advisors to reassure investors.

The initial market cap (2,5M$) is set to allow for a larger upside for participants in the token sale. The fully diluted market cap (70M$) was also designed to allow for greater upside and to reduce inflationary pressure on the token price.
