🪷 What Is Calyx?

TL;DR

Calyx is a cross-chain launchpad powered by NEAR Intents. Participants can join token sales using assets they already hold - ETH, SOL, even memecoins across multiple ecosystems - in a single transaction, without bridging or swapping. Founders raise across chains, then enable claiming and trading, with optional automated liquidity tools.


👥 Who It's For

  • Participants - Easy access, in one click, to curated sales without manual bridging or swapping.

  • Founders - Professional-grade launches integrated with Intents; raise across ecosystems and keep credibility high.


🔧 How It Works (High Level)

  1. Join - Connect your wallet or passkey and pay with any supported asset (EVM and non-EVM).

  2. Route & Settle - NEAR Intents handles routing, conversion, and settlement in the background.

  3. Close & List - When the sale ends, tokens are bridged as needed and listed on NEAR Intents for trading.

  4. Claim - Participants claim per the configured schedule; projects can manage post-sale liquidity.


🌐 Key Capabilities

  • Any Chain, Any Token, One Transaction - Users purchase instantly using assets they already hold; Calyx abstracts bridges and swaps.

  • Multi-Chain Token, Out of the Box - OmniBridge support enables distribution and transfer across supported chains.

  • Agentic Liquidity (Coming soon) - A programmable agent can route capital and rebalance liquidity across chains based on project rules.


🧭 Sale Types (Initial)

  • Fixed Price - Set price, caps, timelines, and vesting (optional).

  • Price Discovery (Pro-Rata) - Time-boxed pool; allocations are distributed pro-rata at close.

Bonding curves and additional mechanisms may be introduced later per the roadmap.


🛡️ Compliance

  • KYB for founders is required.

  • KYC is optional and set per project.

  • KYT is performed per wallet connected.

  • Terms for users and projects are provided in-app and in the docs.


💼 Fees & Commercials

  • Protocol fee: none for now.

  • Platform/frontend fees: may include a % of the raise and/or tokens; deposit/failure fees may apply.

Final terms are disclosed on each sale page.
