Recently, AlienSwap launched the AI-driven public chain ALIENX and is about to conduct node sales. As of the time of writing, over 19,000 addresses have participated in the reservation plan, and the number of addresses participating in the NFT X-BOX airdrop activity exceeds 2.9 million. Odaily Planet Daily will analyze the sales rules and process of ALIENX and AI Node in this article.

ALIENX Chain

ALIENX Chain is an AI Node-driven high-performance staking chain, launched by AlienSwap, Offchain Labs, and Caldera on Arbitrum, supporting BTC, ETH, ARB, SOL, and various types of NFT, aiming to achieve large-scale application of NFT and games.

The AI Node is the key to driving the ALIENX chain. AI NODEs will be distributed globally, automatically participating in network security observation and maintenance to achieve and maintain the security, high-performance characteristics, and intelligent network rewards of the ALIENX chain.

AI Node Analysis

Each AI Node will operate in the form of an AI Agent, serving as an observer and guardian of the ALIENX network to ensure the network's security and stable operation. There are no restrictions on the purchase and operation of AI Nodes, and all users can participate and receive network rewards. 40% of the total AIX tokens will be allocated to AI Node operators. AI Nodes will use artificial intelligence technology to automatically monitor the ALIENX network. When incorrect block information occurs, the AI Node will initiate communication so that block validation nodes can intervene quickly. The AI Node is driven and operated by the AI Node Agent and can be run on any computer that supports Chrome and is connected to the network with a node key. According to official disclosures, AI Nodes will be activated and network rewards will be initiated in June 2024. In addition, AI Nodes will also support transfer and trading. 360 days after the public sale of the nodes, the community will vote on whether to enable the transfer mechanism within the ALIENX network. Once the vote is passed, resale within the ALIENX network will be possible.

Financing Information

ALIENX Chain, launched by AlienSwap, Offchain Labs, and Caldera through strategic cooperation, has completed a round of 5 million US dollars in financing, with participation from NEXT Leader Capital and some early investors.

AlienSwap itself has also completed two rounds of financing, namely a strategic financing of 12 million US dollars in May 2023 and a seed round financing of 5 million US dollars in June 2022.

ALIENX Node Sale Analysis

AI Nodes will undergo two rounds of sales this week, including whitelist and public sales, and can be purchased using ETH or SOL.

Node Sale Rules

The ALIENX AI Node whitelist sale will start at 18:00 on April 12 (UTC+8), and the public sale will begin at 18:00 on April 14 (UTC+8). A total of 50,000 AI Nodes will be sold, with 40% of the AIX tokens allocated as rewards.

The sale price of AIX tokens is divided into 30 gradients, starting at 0.1 ETH, equivalent to a market value of 2.18 million US dollars. The price will increase in layers as the nodes are sold, with the highest price being 1.86 ETH, equivalent to a market value of 317 million US dollars. Of the total, 12,500 node sale quotas will be allocated to the whitelist, and the remaining 37,500 will be issued for public sale.

Due to the price gradient set for the sale, the earlier the purchase, the more significant the cost advantage. The specific sales prices and their gradients are shown in the following figure.

Whitelist Details

The whitelist is set with tiers and different purchase limits for AI Nodes. For Tier 1 to Tier 2 whitelists, each wallet can purchase up to 2 nodes, for T3-T4, the limit is 4 nodes, and subsequently 10 nodes (T5-T6), 20 nodes (T7-T8), and 40 nodes (T9-T10). There is no purchase limit for Tier 11 to Tier 30. So how to get on the whitelist? There are currently four main ways, including official Pass holders, vAIX rankings, node reservation plans, and ecological cooperation whitelists, with specific processes as follows.

• Official Pass Holders

Users holding the Alienverse Genesis Planet Pass (AGP) and ALIENX Explorer Pass (AEP) will receive whitelists. Each holder of 1 AGP will receive a T3 whitelist quota, and each holder of 3 AEP will receive a T4 whitelist quota. The whitelist snapshot of AGP and AEP holders will be taken at 00:00 on April 11, 2024 (UTC+8).

Market data shows that the current floor price of AGP is 0.48 ETH, and the floor price of AEP is 0.065 ETH, approximately equivalent to 1770 USDT and 240 USDT. In addition, the purchase price difference between T3 and T4 is 0.05 ETH. Without considering other benefits, users who choose to hold NFTs to qualify for the whitelist can measure the relative value of the two based on this data.

• AI Node Whitelist Public Application

The top 1000 vAIX users will receive different levels of whitelists, with the following benefits for different levels:

Top 100 - T4 whitelist; 101-500 - T5 whitelist; 501-1000 - T6 whitelist; top 5000 - the first node purchase enjoys a 5% rebate. The snapshot will also be taken at 00:00 on April 11, 2024 (UTC+8).

• AI Node Reservation Plan

Users participating in the AI Node reservation plan will have the opportunity to obtain 500 T4 whitelists and 500 T5 whitelists, which will be randomly selected from all participating users.

In addition, users participating in the AI Node reservation plan who complete the purchase of AI Nodes within 7 days of the node purchase going live will receive double the pre-sale funds, which will be refunded to the payment address before April 20. Users who do not purchase AI Nodes will also receive a 100% refund of the pre-sale funds. It is worth noting that users can make multiple reservations, and each additional reservation increases the chance of being selected in the whitelist. For example, if a user makes 3 reservations and ultimately purchases 1 node, they will receive double the deposit, and if they purchase 2 nodes, they will receive double the deposit for both.

The participation process for the reservation plan is as follows. After entering the reservation plan page, the reservation plan link will pop up automatically. If it does not pop up, you can also click on the floating window in the lower right corner to enter.

Upon entering the reservation interface, you will be given two payment addresses. Transfer the corresponding amount to the specified address. Please do not use centralized exchanges such as Binance, OKEx, etc., for the transfer.

• Ecological Cooperation Whitelist

ALIENX will allocate a certain proportion of whitelist quotas to ecological cooperation partner projects, communities, and KOLs. Eligible users can apply through Discord.

Conclusion

As a mature NFT market, AlienSwap has a considerable presence in the relevant field. The ALIENX public chain launched in cooperation with Arbitrum aims to achieve large-scale application of NFT and games. It is also expected to take advantage of Arbitrum's multi-chain construction plan to make another breakthrough in the public chain and NFT field.
