CoinTiger has established its first Exclusive Board in April 2018, changing from fund governance to board governance. In order to further achieve the community autonomy, CoinTiger hereby decide to launch Voting for Coin Listing program and extend voting authority to all users.
I.Voting for Listing Projects
CoinTiger will choose a certain number of high-quality projects from all projects applied on our official website, and come up with a shortlist of projects for voting.
II.Voting period
7*24 hours per round.
III. Voting Rules
Total votes = Free user votes + Board votes + Project side traffic votes + CoinTiger incentive votes
1.Free user votes
1) For each voting round, users can select multiple projects to vote, without any limit on voting numbers;
2) Each user's vote will cost 1 TCH (1 user’s vote =1 TCH). If a project you voted for wins, your TCH will be returned to your account before the project is listed. For the projects that fail to win, you may choose to revoke your votes, or to keep your votes until the project wins in the next round and your TCH could also be returned before the listing of such project.
3) You can revoke your votes personally 72 hours before the end of the vote, and your TCH will be returned automatically. Please be aware that you are not able to revoke your votes within 72 hours from the end of the vote;
4) The project party may set up a voting incentive by itself and the users who vote for the project can share the voting incentive by the amount of votes after the project is listed. Board votes and Incentive votes are not included. For example: Project A may set up an incentive of 1 million token, and the total votes are 10 million, accordingly, their voters can receive 0.1 token per vote as incentive. During the voting process, the project party can adjust the voting incentive, but only higher incentive is allowed, lower incentive is not allowed.
2. Board votes
CoinTiger introduces various professional investment institutions in the industry to form CoinTiger Executive Board (The Board), to help users identify high-quality projects, reduce the risk of investment, and give professional votes and evaluations to projects applying to be listed by voting.
1) Every project to be included in the Top 10 shortlist must be supported by at least 1 Board (This is a precondition but this is not counted in the public vote)
2) Each board member has 3 board votes, and 1 board vote equals to 3,000,000 user votes, and the Board can vote to one project exclusively or to multiple projects separately.
3. Project party traffic votes
In order to motivate the community to actively participate, CoinTiger will open traffic votes for projects with significant user base. Before the voting period, CoinTiger will hold offline roadshow for projects that have already participated voting for listing program, providing a platform for the projects’ exposure and communication opportunities with potential investors. The project can invite community members to participate in the event which will be counted in proportion to the number of total votes. During the voting period, the votes from new registered users referred by the project party will be counted in proportion to the number of total votes.
1) 1 community member = 100,000 user votes (10 community members are upper limit);
2) The project party will have an exclusive user sign up link, and only the votes from new registered user signed up through this link can be counted;
3) 1 new user vote = 50 user votes
4. CoinTiger incentive votes
1) Board vote incentive: The first 5 projects with board votes equivalent or more than 10,000,000 user votes will be offered CoinTiger incentive votes, of which the 1st place will be given additional 1,500,000 user votes, and the 2nd to 5th places will be given additional 1,000,000 user votes respectively;
