CV Pad-a new launchpad that offers casual investors access to vetted and VC-curated early-stage Web3 investment opportunities - is set to redefine access to VC funding in the blockchain space. Created by CV VC, CV Labs, and DuckDAO, a trio who boast an average 35x ROI on project launches, CV Pad is helping projects with genuine utility to reach a wider and more casual investment audience.


Florian Kohler, Co-founder at CV Pad, explained, “The main problem that we’re solving here at CV Pad is the way in which casual investors gain access to high-profile Web3 investment opportunities. This industry symbolizes openness and equality, but often the best investment opportunities are behind closed doors, reserved especially for elite groups of investors, those with track records of investment, or those who just happen to be in the right circle.While I can understand ‘your network is your net worth’, this exclusivity goes completely against the fundamental values of financial democratization, and it’s why we’re working to remove barriers and help hotly anticipated projects get to market. We’re proving the demand is there for our services.”

CV Pad’s ‘Launchpad+’ removes many of the problems of investing in the crypto market. One of the main frictions for investors is feeling that low-cap cryptocurrencies are a wild gamble. The underlying problem is that everyday investors cannot do the research and due diligence required to discover a project's deeper truths, which could expose them to scams.

When any Web3 startup applies to launch on CV Pad, they must be transparent in allowing CV Pad to vet them and ensure they meet the high standards of quality the experienced team has set.

CV Pad’s First 3 Launches

The first project to launch on CV Pad was Taiko, a project leveraging zero-knowledge technology to help Ethereum scalability and cost reduction. What made this project so enticing to investors was that the development team behind Taiko was the same team that worked on Ethereum’s first zkRollup Layer 2 - Loopring.

The decision to be transparent about their development team members was key to the success of their launch, which raised $45,000 by selling 30,000 $TAIKO at a discount of $1.50 USDT each, to 180 investors. Now, the Layer 2 development has more resources to support its vision of a more accessible, efficient, and inclusive blockchain ecosystem.

\Building on the success of Taiko’s launch, CV Pad followed it up with the listing of RunesTerminal and its $RUNI token. Designed as a hub and launchpad for all things Runes - the latest innovation on the Blockchain network - RunesTerminal will present unique Runes-based investment opportunities.

Their native launchpad - RunesPad, will offer Runes enthusiasts both “Vetted” and “Wild-West” investments, giving investors the freedom to choose between projects that have been researched and verified, and other, riskier unknown launches. This dual system, they feel, is more aligned with financial democratization, and perhaps their future users agree, with $RUNI oversubscribing on CV Pad.

Not slowing down there, CV Pad ran another successful launch with XOXNO, a popular digital asset marketplace built on the MultiversX blockchain (formerly Elrond). XOXNO’s eponymous $XOXNO token went on to sell out on CV Pad’s Launchpad+, giving the platform their largest public sale to date with $80,000 of $XOXNO tokens going to enthusiastic investors.

\After achieving significant community growth and positive price movement as a result of the launch with CV Pad, a spokesperson from XOXNO commented, "XOXNO had a great launch bringing many new users into the ecosystem and a positive price development".

\CV Pad is set to announce its next listings in the coming weeks, having grown its social media community significantly and received a surge in launch applications in the first half of 2024. CV Pad aims to establish itself firmly as a market leader in the Web3 launchpad space by continuously vetting exciting and innovative projects and providing everyday investors with a platform to participate in their success. Web3 projects can apply here to launch with CV Pad.
