ChainCatcher news, the community sales platform BuidlPad stated that due to an overwhelming number of registrations (15 times more than expected), the subscription start date for the Solayer community sale will be postponed to January 16.

ChainCatcher news, community fundraising platform Echo founder Jordan Fish (Cobie) accused some VCs of pressuring crypto projects to prevent them from offering discounted prices to Echo investors, and in some cases, completely opposing community sales unless they are in later rounds with high valuations.Matt O'Connor, co-founder of the ICO platform Legion incubated by Delphi Labs, stated that while Legion has not encountered much public hostility, some venture capital firms push projects to avoid public sales due to regulatory risks and oppose offering discounted valuations or short vesting periods. He said, "For me, the vesting period is particularly ironic because if the team airdrops unlocked tokens, the venture capital firms won’t complain, but if the team sells a small portion of unlocked tokens, it suddenly becomes a problem."Rob Hadick, a general partner at Dragonfly, stated that VCs will continue to be a primary way to help entrepreneurs innovate, and crowdfunding can also become "the value-added part of this story."

ChainCatcher news, CoinList has introduced a new rule requiring users to hold sufficient purchase amounts in their accounts to complete transactions during community sales. Users can register freely as usual, but eligibility to participate in sales now depends on whether there is a minimum purchase amount in the CoinList wallet at the time of the sale.The team stated that this modification means there will be no "grace period" to top up the wallet after the sale begins; users must deposit the corresponding amount of funds into their wallets before the sale starts.The CoinList team believes that this change will create a safer and fairer environment for its early adopters and is confident that this new approach will streamline the community sales process, making it not only more efficient but also more inclusive and fair for everyone.
