Participating in IDOs

Monad PUMP makes investing in early-stage Web3 projects fast, fair, and rewarding — thanks to a structured and tier-driven IDO process.

🧭 What Is an IDO?

An Initial DEX Offering (IDO) is a decentralized way for new projects to raise funds by selling their tokens to the public. On Monad PUMP, every IDO is broken into structured rounds with clear rules, allocations, and eligibility.
