Roadmap
The Konomi team is preparing to launch a public testnet, and the token generation and listing are scheduled for mid-March.
Konomi’s primary focus in the short term is to secure strategic collaboration with top DeFi projects in the Ethereum and Polkadot communities. Already, Konomi is engaged in dialogue with some of the leading companies that make up the building blocks of the DeFi ecosystem.
As the next step in Konomi Network’s public sale, the project will be conducting a community sale for KONO token on Initial DEX Offering (IDO) platform, Polkastarter. The number targeted for the community is 200,000 tokens for a total price of $200K, and each person will be maxed at $500 each.
