As a result, the term IGO is formed, representing a new step for the fund-raising method. Currently, it’s hard for gaming projects to be launched on centralized exchanges (CEXs) like Binance or Gate.io. Those projects are still new and in the development process, therefore the IGO platforms stand out to meet the demand. Investors who are gamers prefer gaming projects to DeFi projects on the blockchain since they spent time playing and experiencing different video games. Therefore, the IGO platform is a favorable place for gamers to generate profits by participating in IGOs of gaming projects. **IGO plays an important role in accelerating the blockchain-based gaming industry**. The IGO platform will be a platform where Looters token holders are already whitelisted for any of the upcoming IGOs, where each user will be able to stake a certain amount of USDC against a certain amount of X tokens(Allocated for the IGO/IDO) the more the participants the lesser the amount of USDC staked and the rest will be returned to participant wallets. more information/ infographics to updated. This is a protocol that maximizes Transparency, price discovery, Whale control, participation and fair distribution of the IDO token launched. More in-depth information Will be released. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
