# Participation Guide: Liquid Launch

### **How It Works**

#### **Step 1: Participate in the Sale**

* Users contribute funds to a **fixed-price sale** in exchange for an NFT-backed tier based allocation.
* The funds are locked within the vault until TGE.

#### **Step 2: Trade Your Allocation (Optional)**

* Users can **list their allocation NFT** on marketplaces within selling period and sell it to others who want exposure.
* The allocation price may increase if demand rises before TGE, allowing traders to **profit from pre-market hype**.

#### **Step 3: Exit Anytime (With Penalty)**

* Users can withdraw their funds before TGE by paying a penalty.
* The penalty fees are **used to buy back project tokens**, benefiting those who remain in the sale.

#### **Step 4: Claim Tokens at TGE**

* Once the project’s TGE occurs, users redeem their **allocation NFT** for the corresponding tokens.
* The allocation NFT is **burned upon claiming**.
