Introduce the pro rata ticket distribution model
in Publications
Bitfinex Token Sales Inc. (BTS) offers plug and play technology solutions to streamline the ticket sales process. BTS is excited to introduce a new ticket distribution model that can help projects cater for the high demand for tickets offered during sales and achieve wider distribution.
User-centered innovation
In the past, ticket sales conducted using BTS technology used the first-come-first-served ticket distribution model, and were completed within seconds of launch due to high demand. As a result, thousands of authenticated users were not able to purchase tickets successfully. Feedback from BTS users helped to shape the new pro rata model whereby all eligible consumers who pledge to participate in the ticket sale receive an allocation.
Pro rata distribution model
Projects that conduct ticket sales using BTS technology can now choose to distribute tickets using the new pro rata distribution model, where all eligible consumers can pledge to buy tickets during the sale and receive a proportionate allocation based on the user’s promise itself and the total of promises. by all consumers, if sales are too high.
Example of pro rata ticket distribution
Let us consider an example where an ABC project conducts a ticket sale using the pro rata distribution model and intends to sell 100,000 ABC tickets worth $ 100,000, where each ABC ticket costs $ 1. Ash participates in the sale and promises to buy 10,000 ABC tickets. The remaining eligible users promise to buy 190,000 ABC tickets. Then,
Tickets Available at the Token Auction = 100,000 ABC.
Total Promise = 200,000 ABC.
Tickets bought by Ash = 5,000 ABC.
Since the sale is 100% oversubscribed, each consumer will only be able to purchase 50% of their original promised amount. Therefore, Ash will receive 5,000 ABC tickets and $ 5,000 (the difference between the promised amount and the purchased amount) will be released to Ash.
