# 🪷 Calyx Codex Overview

Back from any chain. Launch without limits.

## 🚀 What is Calyx?

Calyx is a **cross-chain token launchpad** that makes it easy for founders to raise funds and for individuals to participate in token sales - all in one transaction, from any chain or token. Powered by the NEAR Intents infrastructure, every launch is seamless, transparent, and on-chain.

### 🎯 For Participants

Calyx makes it simple to join token sales from anywhere. You can participate with the assets you already hold, without bridging or swapping, while enjoying a transparent launch experience.

* **Join from any chain** - participate directly with your token of choice (USDC, ETH, NEAR, and many more) from over 20 supported chains. No bridges, no swaps.
* **Due diligence**- every project is reviewed for transparency, team credibility, tokenomics, and comes with vesting, audits, and go-to-market support.
* **Referral rewards** - invite friends, climb the leaderboard, and earn additional token rewards each season.
* **Simple claiming** - tokens follow the project’s vesting schedule and are automatically claimable when unlocked.
