Exploring AngelBlock's Transparent and Decentralized Protocol



In the fast-paced and ever-evolving world of cryptocurrency, innovations continue to reshape how projects are funded and managed. One such groundbreaking development is AngelBlock, a non-custodial, protocol-based fundraising infrastructure. AngelBlock is designed to introduce a new era of transparency, decentralization, and democratization to token-based fundraising, vesting, and distribution. This article will delve into the key features and benefits of AngelBlock, addressing the prevalent issues in the current fundraising landscape and demonstrating how AngelBlock's protocol seeks to address these challenges.


Addressing Market Problems


AngelBlock tackles several challenges prevalent in the current crypto fundraising landscape:

  1. Fragmentation and Inefficiency: The crypto fundraising environment is fragmented and inefficient, fostering distrust. AngelBlock centralizes and secures fundraising processes, making them transparent and governed by protocol.

  2. Risk of Rugpulls: The protocol ensures contributor funds are protected on-chain, with capital released only upon startup delivery of milestones. In case of a scam or rugpull attempt, investors can vote to revert funds to contributors.

  3. Lack of Transparent Vesting: Smart contracts on AngelBlock enable transparent, on-chain vesting, eliminating the risk of teams dumping "locked-up" tokens.

  4. Infrastructure Standardization: AngelBlock introduces an infrastructure standard for raising, vesting, and distributing assets, preventing token sales' mismanagement and misuse.


Badges


Badges are an ERC-1155 token that are instrumental within the AngelBlock protocol. They not only represent a contributors voting power in a given raise, but also the contributor's position in vested tokens. Vested tokens paid out after the conclusion of a given fundraise are designated by badge location. Badges are NFTs that are automatically generated upon taking part in a given fundraise.


Milestone-Based Model


AngelBlock's milestone-based model ensures a secure, transparent, and decentralized fundraising process. Startups declare upcoming milestones, and contributors vote based on milestone completion. This model minimizes risks and allows contributors to halt smart contract payouts if issues arise.


Governance and Voting


The protocol employs a robust governance mechanism, where eligible investors participate in standard voting. Voting results determine milestone approval or rejection. Additionally, startups can apply for milestone and roadmap replanning, subject to investor approval.


The THOL Token


At the heart of AngelBlock's transformative ecosystem lies the THOL token, a digital asset designed for multifaceted utility and strategic governance.


THOL, plays a pivotal role in the protocol:

  1. Token Staking: THOL allows users to earn deflationary APY by staking and nominating validators of startups.

  2. Gas Payment: THOL is used to pay gas within the protocol, eliminating the need for ETH on the user's side.

  3. Protocol Interactions: THOL is required for all protocol interactions, including participating in raises, buying and selling badges, and claiming tokens.

  4. Additional Privileges: Holding THOL in the wallet provides additional privileges, such as priority deals and community-building incentives.


AngelBlock NFTs


AngelBlock NFTs, provides holders with utility features on the platform and additional benefits. The NFTs are not just a branding mechanism but also represent a potential revenue stream for the platform.


The team


The core team behind AngelBlock comprises seasoned professionals, each boasting over a decade of expertise in diverse fields, including finance, legal, technology, and the blockchain/crypto industries. Collectively, their extensive experience forms the bedrock of AngelBlock's innovative approach to decentralized fundraising, ensuring a blend of financial acumen, legal proficiency, and cutting-edge technological know-how.
