Most of you have caught wind of our teaser, and have made your guesses. We can now confirm some of your speculations to be accurate :)
Today, the Krystal team is happy to announce the launch of KrystalGO, a community-focused Initial DEX Offering (IDO) launchpad for next-generation crypto gems. Community members will be able to invest in up-and-coming blockchain startups.
As a multi-chain platform to access DeFi services and manage NFTs, Krystal has always kept key considerations in mind when thinking of what is next on our development roadmap. With KrystalGO, our aim is to introduce a high quality yet easy-to-use token sale platform, simplifying DeFi accessibility for the masses — newbies and veterans alike.
Multi-Chain
We recognise that according to each project’s requirements, different projects prefer to build on different blockchains. KrystalGO caters to all. At launch, we will be supporting projects built on Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain (BSC), Polygon and Avalanche.
Simple Process
We understand how competing for an IDO allocation can be a long-winded and costly process. KrystalGO makes it simple for you.
- Complete KYC — Done via a third-party service provider on the KrystalGO platform
- To determine which tier you belong to, you will be allotted points based on:
- Amount of Kyber Network Crystal (KNC) staked
- KNC is the native token of Kyber Network, a liquidity hub that connects liquidity from a wide range of sources to power instant and secure crypto exchange in any decentralized application without the need for an intermediary.As one of the most popular liquidity protocols, we recognise the stronghold that KNC token holders possess in this DeFi space.
- 30 Day Trading Volume on Krystal
- For eg. 0–100 points places you in Tier A, 101–1000 points places you in Tier B
- Amount of Kyber Network Crystal (KNC) staked
- Depending on the tier, you may either go through a raffle to be allocated a slot, or be automatically guaranteed a slot.
- No gas wars — Being allocated a slot also means you do not need to pay a ridiculous amount in gas in order to secure your tokens.
Education
As an investor, it is key to know what you are getting into; as a project, it is key to tell your story to the community.
- Information about projects will be found on KrystalGO.
- Events will be organised by Krystal in collaboration with projects, where the community will get a chance to learn more about the projects in the form of AMAs, Learn & Earns, Social Quests etc. Projects can expect a growth in their communities as well.
How to participate in KrystalGO projects?

Interested participants will be allotted points based in the following categories.
