Infinex Token Sale Structure Change: Moving to Fair Allocation Model

They aimed for millions but hit a wall. After raising just about $600,000 in the first three days, the trading platform Infinex has completely overhauled its public token sale terms.

Why the Infinex Token Sale Structure Change Happened

Infinex, a noncustodial platform designed to feel like a centralized exchange, admitted it "got the sale wrong." The original plan featured a $5 million target and a $2,500 per-wallet cap. However, the team realized the structure tried to please too many conflicting interests: retail investors disliked the lockup, while whales were deterred by the cap.

In response, Infinex removed the cap entirely and pivoted to a "max-min fair allocation" model, also known as a "water-filling" approach. This ensures all contributions rise evenly until the supply is exhausted, with any excess being refunded to participants. While Patron holders still get preference, the specific details will only be finalized once total demand is clear.

Context: $67M War Chest vs. Public Sale Struggles

The pivot feels awkward for a project that raised $67 million last year. Despite the recent market rally—with Bitcoin nearing $95,000 and XRP surging—Infinex's initial complexity seems to have dampened retail enthusiasm. The team is now doubling down on explaining their product as a bridge between DeFi and CEX-style usability.
