Timeline for “Token Sale” would be like this.

General Token sale schedule

Early purchaser phase

Early purchase phase is the selling tokens to token purchasers privately. Early purchasers will be like personal investors, or some funds which investing crypto currencies.

Early purchasers are important for pre-development and marketing of the project, and if there are no early supports for a project, maybe the project doesn’t have good value for the world or need more presentations to convey the value to the world.

Crowdsale phase

Crowdsale phase is selling core teams tokens to the crowd. Sometime this crowdsale is called “ICO”, but in Starbase we separate the word of “Crowdsale” and “ICO”.

Because we believe fundraising time and project launch time are mostly different, and tokens are better to be un-transferrable before the project launch.

So we use “crowdsale” for public token sale, and ICO for project launch & the time when token become transferrable.

ICO phase

Before ICO, a project posts a project’s updates continuously through Starbase and the project’s social medias, such as facebook, twitter, blog, reddit, etc.

If the updates are promising, more people are going to be interested in the project’s ICO.

Finally, when the project launch and release the service or product, they can make the token transferrable, and then the token will have market value on global crypto currency markets.

Starbase

Starbase makes it easier for entrepreneurs, new business planners, talents, and artists to start new service/product with global supporters to these transitions without blockchain knowledge.

Now Starbase itself also in early purchaser phase with the following schedule.
