<aside> 📜 OVERVIEW

An Initial DEX Offering (IDO) is a decentralized fundraising method where blockchain projects raise capital by selling their tokens directly to investors through a decentralized exchange (DEX). Unlike traditional fundraising models such as ICOs (Initial Coin Offerings) or IEOs (Initial Exchange Offerings), IDOs provide immediate liquidity, transparent token distribution, and fairer participation opportunities.

How IDOs Work on DerHex

  1. Project Vetting & Selection – Only high-potential projects that meet DerHex's security and quality standards are selected for an IDO.
  2. Token Sale & Contribution – Investors can participate by staking DerHex tokens ($D & $S) to gain access to public or whitelist sales.
  3. Instant Liquidity & Trading – Once the IDO concludes, the project's tokens are immediately listed on a DEX, allowing investors to trade or hold their newly acquired tokens.
  4. Refundable IDOs for Added Security – Some IDOs on DerHex come with a refund option, enabling early investors to request a refund within a specified period after the IDO.

Why Choose IDOs Over Other Fundraising Methods?

With DerHex, IDOs are safer, more accessible, and optimized for both investors and project teams. 🚀
