Valuation and Token Distribution

Fjord Foundry LBP and Market Valuation

The Fjord Foundry LBP set a market-based price for Glue tokens, resulting in a final fully diluted valuation (FDV) of $1,447,000,000 for the Glue Network. This LBP was the first round that established a market price for the tokens and consequently a conversion rate for the seed stage contributions.

Conversion and Fair Treatment of Seed Stage Contributors

To calculate the discount for seed stage contributors, we took the bottom decile of prices paid during the LBP and applied the agreed 30% discount. This approach ensured that early contributors were adequately and fairly compensated for their patience, having waited over two years for their returns. The calculated conversion price for seed contributors was $0.253 per token.

Token Owner Table and Distribution

The outcomes of these fundraising efforts and conversions have resulted in the following distribution for Glue's token ownership:

1. Seed Contributors

  • Total Contribution: $2.5 million

  • Conversion Price: $0.253 per token

  • Total Tokens Sold: 9,881,422

  • Percentage of Total Supply: 0.99%

2. LBP Contributors

  • Total Contribution: $2.5 million

  • Average Price: $0.668 per token

  • Total tokens Sold: 3,738,525

  • Percentage of Total Supply: 0.37%

Additionally, some expenses were paid in tokens, amounting to approximately $500,000 at the seed pricing of $0.253 per token, ensuring fair compensation for services rendered during the early stages of the network's development.

3. Other Expenses Paid in Tokens

  • Expected Total Contribution: $500,000

  • Conversion Price: $0.253 per token

  • Total Tokens Sold: 1,976,284

  • Percentage of Total Supply: 0.20%

Total tokens sold to date: 15,596,231 which is approximately 1.57% of total supply.

The above maths will not be exact as there are final expenses to be accounted for, but it will be within a 10% margin of error.
