Regulatory compliant DeFi


DECENTRALIZED COMMUNITY-DRIVEN FUNDING PROTOCOL FOR WEB3.

 1. 
 2. 
 3. 




POLIMEC ENABLES FUNDRAISING IN A DECENTRALIZED, TRANSPARENT, AND REGULATORY
COMPLIANT MANNER, ALIGNING STAKEHOLDER INCENTIVES DURING AND BEYOND THE
FUNDRAISE.

 * Whitepaper
   
 * Lightpaper
   


 * REGULATORY COMPLIANT
   
   Network participants on Polimec must claim credentials verified by trusted
   third parties in a novel know your customer (KYC)/anti-money laundering (AML)
   process. Credentials are pseudonymous, and no personal information is stored
   on-chain - hence all transactions and network participants on Polimec can be
   processed in a regulatory compliant and secure manner.
   
   


 * ACCESSIBLE & SUSTAINABLE
   
   Polimec’s decentralized approach grants access to early-stage funding on a
   global scale. Retail, professional, and institutional participants gain
   access at a similar price with transparent terms. Bringing together the
   various stakeholders is essential to increase community awareness and
   engagement while benefiting from a broad funding base.
   
   


 * INDEPENDENT & EFFICIENT
   
   The protocol executes trustless and automated token transfers, eliminating
   counterparty risks and human errors in the funding process. This results in
   increased security, time certainty in funding cycles, and no upfront or
   participation fees.

FUNDING PROCESS

The Polimec funding process is divided into five distinct phases:



 * ON-CHAIN CREDENTIALS
   
   Stakeholder Verification
   
   Network participants claim KYC credentials, which are required to gain access
   to the functionalities on Polimec.

 * FUNDING APPLICATION
   
   Project Data Provision
   
   Issuer applies for funding, providing all required information and funding
   round specifications.

 * EVALUATION
   
   Community Due Diligence
   
   Minimum backing is required for a project to progress to the funding round.

 * FUNDING ROUND
   
   Funding Access
   
   Participants gain access to the funding rounds based on their credential
   category.

 * ISSUANCE & MIGRATION
   
   Contribution Token Distribution
   
   Contribution tokens are automatically issued and distributed to the
   participants, and eventually converted to the project's mainnet token at
   launch.




VALUES

 * Trustless
   
   
   
   Enabling regulatory compliant fundraising without intermediaries or
   counterparty risk in a permissionless system.

 * Collaborative
   
   
   
   Empowering network participants to assess projects in a decentralized due
   diligence mechanism as their backing is decisive for funding.

 * Accessible
   
   
   
   Facilitating global access to funding on a level playing field, allowing
   retail and professionals to participate alongside institutionals.

 * Inclusive
   
   
   
   Gaining access to a broad and diverse community.

 * Transparent
   
   
   
   Reducing information asymmetry in funding through transparency in entry
   prices, vesting periods, and token allocations.

 * Efficient
   
   
   
   Providing a trustless and automated funding process from fundraising to token
   distribution to the conversion at the project’s mainnet launch.

FUNCTIONALITIES

Polimec`s native PLMC token grants access to four distinct utilities:




 * EVALUATION
   
   PLMC holders perform evaluations and signal their confidence in a project by
   bonding PLMC. Their backing is decisive for a project to proceed to a funding
   round. Evaluators are rewarded for correct evaluations, or slashed for
   incorrect ones. Read more

 * PARTICIPATION
   
   PLMC holders gain access to funding rounds by bonding PLMC and participate
   with other cryptocurrencies (e.g. stablecoins, DOT, KSM). Read more

 * STAKING
   
   PLMC holders earn staking rewards by nominating collators. In doing so, they
   get rewarded for providing stability to the network and contributing to
   validating transactions.

 * GOVERNANCE
   
   PLMC holders determine the direction of the protocol by deciding on topics
   such as protocol development, the implementation of new network features, and
   more.
