CoinTerminal, Web3’s most liquid primary market and the inclusive IDO platform for crypto projects, has introduced a novel reward mechanism. It is a $15,000 lottery across all refundable sales: $10,000 for one winner and $2500 for each of the two runner-ups.
Notably, the draw will use Chainlink VRF, a fair and verifiable random number generator (RNG) that enables smart contracts to access random values without compromising security or usability.
What Is This Lottery All About?
CoinTerminal has launched some of the most defining crypto projects in recent years, rewarding both issuers and investors equally. The experience is seamless, as there is no need to stake a launchpad token like other platforms. With the ‘buy now, pay later’ feature, CoinTerminal pays for tickets upfront; investors only pay if they like the project and choose to claim.
Coin Terminal has launched over 80 projects. The AIT protocol saw a listed value of over $80,000, with 100 users winning fully unlocked $1,000 AIT tickets. StarHeroes ($12,000+ listed) had 800 users win partially unlocked $250 $STAR tickets. K9 Finance ($8,000+ listed) saw 400 users win fully unlocked $250 $KNINE tickets.
Successes like these have encouraged investor participation. And now, with the lottery, CoinTerminal continues to build trust and credibility with its steadily growing community.
How to Participate?
It’s as easy as it gets. Join any refundable IDO going live on or after June 16, 2025. Upon submission of the wallet, you’re automatically entered into the lottery, and it stays valid even if you request a refund. CoinTerminal, true to its inclusive ethos, wants to reward everyone who shows up and engages.
Chainlink VRF will ensure random and credible selection, and the selected names will appear on the transparency page.
For CoinTerminal, this is a way of saying Thank You for the time, support, and trust bestowed upon the platform by its users. But the idea of on-chain lottery has the potential to go beyond participation; it can add vibrance and enthusiasm to the process of coin launches as a whole.
CoinMarketCap estimates suggest there are close to 18 million cryptocurrencies now, with around 500 added to it in the last 30 days alone. Its tracked market cap recently stood at US$3.25 trillion.
As adoption grows, projects must stand out and have a differentiating edge. There are assets with excellent value propositions, but they must have the right type of visibility. On-chain lotteries make the process trustworthy and rewarding. This new lottery will bring more exciting projects to CoinTerminal, which offers access to a loyal, engaged user base.
As a replicable model, such lotteries should see more and more adoption in the days to come, and CoinTerminal deserves credit for it.
