Here’s the allocation breakdown per tier:

* +50,000 POLS Power — $1000
* +30,000 POLS Power — $600
* +10,000 POLS Power — $350
* +3,000 POLS Power — $200
* +1,000 POLS Power — $100
* +250 POLS Power — $50
* Community Winners — $300

You can buy $COOKIE up to your maximum allocation size, in one or multiple transactions. You can contribute less than your max allocation, but not more.

$COOKIE IDO will follow our updated Guaranteed Allocation sale model. Here’s how the sale process will unfold:

2:00pm — Guaranteed Allocation phase
For exactly 1 hour, users with “Allowlisted” application status will be able to buy up to their full allocation, in one or multiple transactions.
3:00pm — First Come First Served (FCFS) phase
Now all of the users with “Allowlisted FCFS” status will be able to join the pool and buy up to their respective max allocation. FCFS pool will have its dedicated allocation (some % of the total amount raised), and any leftover funds unsold in the Guaranteed phase will be added.

You can find your $COOKIE application status on your Dashboard. Check all possible project application statuses here. For more details on the Guaranteed sale structure, visit this blog article.
