The sale in the EVO will be divided into three rounds followed by a public sale. The price of CLX token has been set at $0.01 for the EVO rounds while the public sale price has been decided at $0.02.
The sale commenced today and will end on April 6.
The announcement also detailed that this is the first token sale distribution process of the company and the earlier fund received by the company was a part of its Series A funding round.
Based on proof-of-stake (PoS) protocol, Casper Labs will run full-node at CasperLab’s mainnet launch to facilitate staking support for CLX on behalf of platform users at the Genesis Block, eliminating the need for retail EVO participants to operate as validators on the network.
