PANews reported on December 20 that, according to an article published on the X platform by Linda Xie, former co-founder of Scalar Capital who has joined the Farcaster team, token issuance platform Clanker is currently exploring a next-generation token pre-sale scheme called Clanker Auctions. This pre-sale scheme is expected to be designed based on the Uniswap CCA auction protocol and add contracts related to liquidity, vesting, etc.
Previously, it was reported that Clanker's first ICO was thwarted earlier this month, with the community calling the presale a "disaster." Because the presale contract was an older version with a hard cap of only 20 ETH, a whale managed to snipe 16 ETH (80%). Furthermore, the lack of restrictions on the amount a single wallet could participate in the presale was also a major reason for the oligopoly of the presale share.
