iAgent Genesis Node Minting: Everything You Need to Know
The iAgent Node Bootstrapping event is almost here! Happening exclusively on NodeOps, with a total supply of 5000 Nodes distributed across pre-sale, WL and Public sale. Whether you’re part of the pre-sale, whitelist, or public mint, here’s a quick guide to ensure a smooth experience.
Presales and Whitelists: What You Need to Know
- 3000 Presale Nodes (Free Claim): Claims open from 10th September 2PM UTC and will be live for one month.
- 1000 Whitelist Sale Nodes ($360 USD): Starts on 10th September, 2PM UTC with a 10% discount. Now first-come, first-served (FCFS) — no more guarantees, but max mint remains 5.
- 1000 Public Sale Nodes ($400 USD): Begins 11th September, 2PM UTC at full price.
Note: Nodes remaining from the WL sale will be rolled onto the Public sale.
Key Minting Scenarios
Scenario 1: Max Minted During Presale
If you’ve already minted 5 nodes during the presale, you can’t mint any more during the whitelist or public sale. The cap ensures fairness across participants and allows for the protocol to remain decentralized as much as possible.
Scenario 2: More Than 5 Nodes During Presale
When consolidating wallets, we found pre-sale purchasers who bought more than 5 nodes across multiple wallets. While this isn’t supported, we have still found a solution and wanted to show our appreciation for your early support and conviction. If you have more than 5 claims in the presale, the nodes will be airdropped to you within 24 hours. You will not be able to claim.
Scenario 3: Less Than 5 Nodes During Presale
If you minted fewer than 5 nodes during presale, you can mint the remainder during the whitelist or public sale. For example, if you claimed 3 in pre-sale, then you can mint 2 more to reach the total of 5.
Why Hold More Nodes?
One of the advantages of holding more nodes in the iAgent ecosystem is the ability to offset node-running fees. The more nodes you own, the more you can benefit from scaling rewards and reduced operational costs. This means there’s a strong incentive to own more rather than less nodes.
We listened to community and partner feedback that our previous direction of only allowing one mint per whitelist was undesirable. After balancing our need to keep the protocol decentralized, whilst addressing community feedback, we have increased the number of nodes to five mints per wallet.
This in turn has made the whitelist mint first come first serve. All remaining supplies will be rolled over into public sale.
