The Interfold is about to start filmingโprivacy infrastructure gets a new twist.
Letโs lay out the timeline:
ยท 7/6โ7/7 pre-bid + KYC (completed via Predicate)
ยท 7/8 at 22:00 auction begins, using Uniswap CCA
ยท 7/10 at 22:00 ends; you can claim on the Uniswap interface
ยท Around 8/19 the transfer restrictions are lifted, officially TGE
Mechanically, it uses a unified settlement price: when bidding, you set a maximum FDV and budget. Any portion above the settlement price can be withdrawn and re-bidโcloser to real demand pricing than a traditional IDO.
One thing to note: after receiving $FOLD, thereโs a 40-day cooling-off period during which it can only be used for Ciphernode staking and cannot be transferred. In other words, if youโre just looking to flip short-term, you can skip this roundโit clearly filters for long-term participants who are willing to run nodes.
The privacy narrative hasnโt really been heating up this year, but for infrastructure projects, the valuation anchor usually depends on whether the node economics model can actually work. FOLD is staked/locked to bootstrap liquidityโthe logic is pretty clear.
