Nuon Guarded Launch Documentation

What is Guarded Launch

The Guarded Launch is a controlled initial deployment of the Nuon v2 protocol and MaxCap tokens. This limited token release event allows users to mint and stake the Nuon v2 stablecoin (NUON) in exchange for MaxCap at competitive APYs. The phased launch helps ensure protocol stability and security before full deployment.

Key Details

• Guarded Launch: February 2025 - April 2025

• Token Generation Event (TGE): Expected in April 2025

• MaxCap Token Supply: 100 million total MaxCap tokens

• Staking Rewards Allocation: 19% of total supply

• Monthly Distribution: ~719,000 tokens (subject to adjustment)

• Redemption: Rewards are unlocked at TGE and can be used in strategy allocations

MaxCap Tokens and Nuon Staking Rewards

MaxCap tokens serve as an entry point to portfolio allocations. After the Public Launch, staking MaxCap will enable users to participate in DeFi portfolio management and receive a share of the protocol’s excess yield revenue.

Earning MaxCap Tokens

During the Guarded Launch, users can earn MaxCap tokens by staking Nuon. The earlier a user stakes, the greater their potential rewards due to the initially low competition for tokens and the set monthly distribution schedule.

How to Participate in the Guarded Launch

Requirements

1. An ERC-20 compatible non-custodial wallet set to the Base chain network.

Additional Information

• Minimum Minting Requirement: During the Guarded Launch, the minimum minting amount is 1,000 Nuon. Users can bypass this requirement by following the referral process.

• Unbonding Period during the Guarded Launch: Staked Nuon has a 7-day unbonding period.

• Portfolio Access: After the Public Launch, MaxCap token holders can participate in protocol governance, decentralized portfolio allocations, and excess yield rewards.

• Referral Program: Users can generate referral links to earn additional rewards for bringing in new stakers and increasing the protocol's TVL.

Security and Protocol Stability

The Guarded Launch ensures that the Nuon ecosystem functions correctly before full public deployment. Early participants benefit from high rewards while the system undergoes live testing in real market conditions.
