# Introduction
Crodo - finding new stars in the Polygon zkEVM ecosystem
> The platform provides decentralized fundraising in the Polygon zkEVM ecosystem for projects at an early development stage at favorable terms for investors and platform creators.
>
> We are helping to new projects in early stages to raise capital from users, by making them into real clients in GameFi.
As a member of the expedition to the Polygon zkEVM galaxy, you will fly through uncharted solar systems with our team, who will help in their exploration and intergalactic token trading.
{% hint style="info" %}
Attention: When buying tickets, be prepared for a flight to the moon and other more distant planets.
{% endhint %}
Our cruiser Crodo is built from automatic decentralized mechanisms, which allows to distribute tokens evenly according to a pre-calibrated algorithm.
# Advantages
#### When developing this platform, we wanted to bring a new convenience level in the work of IDO sites and become an example for others.
After analyzing the work of other IDO sites, we found the following problems:
* Lack of reminders to participants about the start, approval in the whitelist, the start of the token redemption stage, etc. Because of this, participants sometimes forgot to enter the site on time and lost the chance to buy a token at a bargain price.
> For this, a chat bot was developed in Telegram, which will warn you in advance about an important action.
* Slowly running site servers that do not cope well with a sharp increase in traffic, which leads to problems accessing the IDO site at the right time.
> This problem is solved by using CDN and DDOS protection through CloudFlare.com and hosting servers in Kubernetes on dynamically created virtual servers in DigitalOcean.com
* Staking system without additional motivation to keep tokens locked. This causes the price to drain at an unfavorable market period.
> [Titles ](/documentation/titles)have been introduced for holding tokens, which are reset if tokens are withdrawn from the site
* Lack of convenient ambassador programs
> An ambassador program was created with the ability to send tasks, monitor their status, view the balance of points earned, reminders of new tasks, a competitive system, an affiliate program
* Participants do not understand projects and buy everything in a row
> Project integration options have been developed to engage the audience for real use
You have to create an ambassador program from scratch, which often turns out to be inconvenient and does not motivate participants enough.
* > That’s why we are developing CRM system that allows the project to create a program for itself by inviting ambassadors from our database, selecting the necessary skills, grades and other parameters.
* Airdrops are being done to increase the number of subscribers who do not bring any value and are mostly bots or customers who are not interested in the project.
> We are developing an airdrop creator with templates that allow you to complete a quest in a playful way, where the participant performs actions on the project website, after which he gets a chance to win Airdrop or any other prize. Also, the system will include pre-made integrations with our partner projects for collaborative airdrops that will promote several projects at once.
After analyzing the work of other IDO sites, we found the following problems:
* Incomplete documentation for developers and difficulties in communication between projects.
> We develop code examples of best practices for developers on Polygon zkEVM network and we’ve created a community where project teams are united on one Discord server for collaborations and helping each other.

# Tiers
A system for dividing participants by levels is necessary for an even and fair distribution of tokens in pools.
Depending on the blocked CROD tokens and the blocking time, participants receive different tiers.
[Gravity](/documentation/staking) attracts good luck! The more Gravity you have, the more chance you have to win. You get [gravity](/documentation/staking) for staking and in the [referral program](/documentation/referral-program).
1. **"Star"** = 100 Gravity. 1 Lottery ticket
2. **"Red Giant"** = 1 000 Gravity. 12 Lottery tickets
3. **"Supernova"** = 5 000 Gravity. 100 Lottery tickets
4. **"Neutron Star"** = 10 000 Gravity. 300 Lottery ticket
5. **"Pulsar"** = 50 000 Gravity. Guaranteed allocation
6. **"Black hole"** - Guaranteed participation. Issued to those who blocked tokens and did not withdraw for 12 months and, at the same time, have at least 50 000 Gravity (has the [title of Admiral](/documentation/titles) and the level **"Pulsar"**)
The higher the level, the more you get an allocation, and the more it gives an increase in chances, up to guaranteed participation at higher levels.
Allocation is the amount of tokens that will be available for redemption.
# Staking
CROD - platform tokens that can be locked for a period from 7 to 730 days. By blocking tokens in the contract, users get a chance to redeem the allocation.
The blocking period is a multiplier that increases the number of your "Gravity" according to the formula:
$$
Gravity = CROD\*(\sqrt{days/2}) / 12
$$
where "days" is the number of blocking days
**Contract address (TestNet):** [0x56DD498BCECA94d2893FA479EEc943feA4f56096](https://cronos.crypto.org/explorer/testnet3/address/0x56DD498BCECA94d2893FA479EEc943feA4f56096/transactions)
**Contract source code:** [github.com/Crodo-io/Contracts/blob/main/contracts/crodoContract.sol](https://github.com/Crodo-io/Contracts/blob/main/contracts/crodoContract.sol)
# Staking rewards
Each user who has their CROD tokens locked on our platform receives the rewards once per day. Rewards are calculated according to the percentage of the total amount of locked CROD.
## Formula for calculating reward for 1 day:
* x= your reward per day
* y= number of CROD you have staked
* z= total staked CROD of all users
* e= total CROD allocated to staking rewards
* i = total number of days
$$
x=e/i\*(y/z)
$$
Each subsequent day is calculated taking into account the amount received on the previous day.
# Titles
Ranks are awarded for the time you keep tokens on the site. When withdrawing tokens from the site, the rank is reset to the first
1. **Crewmen** - base rank
2. **Ensign** - issued after 1 month of blocking, gives + 15% to Gravity
3. **Commander** - issued after 3 months of blocking, gives + 20% Gravity
4. **Captain** - issued after 6 months of blocking, gives + 25% Gravity
5. **Admiral** - issued after 12 months of blocking, gives + 30% Gravity, and also gives the "Black hole" level if your level is "Pulsar"
# Stages
Each project goes through a series of stages in order to achieve the coins' distribution among the participants:
1. Registration in whitelist, where users can apply for participation.
2. Lottery - At this time, the winners are determined - the whitelist participants.
3. Sales - participants need to redeem your allocation as soon as possible.
4. Distribution - everyone who bought the allocation receives project tokens.
{% hint style="info" %}
If at any level the participants have not redeemed all the available tokens, then the second stage of the sale is automatically added, when the remaining tokens are distributed evenly among the other levels. If there are tokens left after the second sale stage, then the remainder is returned to the project
{% endhint %}
# Redemption of tokens
The token swap system is presented in the form of a fixed liquidity pool.
This solution allows private investors to redeem a token at a profitable price, and the project can predictably collect the required amount of investment for a predictable number of tokens, as well as prevent a quick flush on exchanges during listing using systems of gradual funds' unlocking.
The system also assists in the wide distribution of token holders after redemption. Having a large number of token holders distributed geographically and demographically is a key advantage for a token project. Many centralized exchanges will view the number and location of token holders as key indicators of whether a project is worth listing.
To achieve these benefits, the users wishing to redeem tokens at a bargain price compete with each other using the following mechanics:
* [Separation users into tiers](/documentation/tiers) depending on the received [Gravity](/documentation/staking).
* Executing tasks of token projects.
Stages of token swap:
1. If you were included in the whitelist, then when the specified start time of sales comes, you need to enter the tokens required by the pool into the exchange contract via the site interface.
2. When the distribution date comes, the tokens will automatically appear in the wallet.
{% hint style="info" %}
Depending on the described distribution plan in the project - tokens can be received in parts (gradual) before the final distribution date
{% endhint %}
