Pendulum & PEN
Pendulum won auction 35 and our Polkadot parachain went live on Mainnet 14th February 2023.
A Polkadot crowdloan serves to trustlessly crowdsource DOT to bid on a parachain slot in Polkadot's parachain auctions. It is not exactly a loan, rather it is a way of locking your DOT tokens in order to vote for a parachain to successfully win a parachain slot in the network. For more information see our quick overview.
This crowdloan allowed Pendulum to raise the required DOT to secure a parachain slot on Polkadot and to distribute PEN tokens to the early supporters in the community.
