Step 3: Slider Authentication

For Round 1: if orders successfully execute, click “Balance” and you should see the amount of tokens acquired.

For Round 2: Users with unused individual cap can place limit buy orders. Successful placement can only be confirmed after system allocation is completed after the 5-minute trading session is over. 

In each Prime Trading round, when 5 minutes is reached, or total tokens available for trading is sold out, Prime Trading is complete.

Tips

1. Slide authentication system might experience delays due to network issues, please wait patiently.

2. During Prime Trading stage, users can place sell orders, however individual cap will not recover if orders successfully execute.

3. Trading Protection: In order to avoid extreme price volatility due to exuberance, we will restrict the use of market orders within 5 mins after official trading opens and users are unable to place orders at prices 5 times higher than the highest tradable price during our Second Price Limit Round.
