Today we’re excited to announce the launch of AQ1 — an ERC-721 token built to function as a decentralized reserve asset and serve as Aliquo’s governance token.
Mint begins on February 21th, at 12 PM (EST).
Seeking to empower Aliquo decentralization since the protocol inception, the launch of AQ1 is defined as a ‘‘fair public launch’’: a single event on which the entire token supply of AQ1 (1,000 NFTs) is offered and distributed via public mint — giving as many people as possible a share of Aliquo via AQ1. The goal is that the tokenomics of AQ1 will set up Aliquo to be truly decentralized for the foreseeable future.
It’s core to the mission of Aliquo that the protocol is not governed and owned by a single entity, but instead by individuals all around the world who owns at least one AQ1.
Introducing a tokenomics that seeks to favor the long-term governance health of Aliquo (i.e., decentralization), there’s no founder or development team, VC, or early investor pre-allocation program to privately claim a portion of the supply cap of AQ1 before the release for sale to the public — everyone, from everywhere, will be able to mint AQ1 with equal opportunity.

What’s Next
After the launch of AQ1, it is bootstrapped a progressive decentralization process of Aliquo. Firstly, 24 hours after all AQ1 becomes minted, a token-gated Discord server is launched, and secondly, occurs the bootstrap of Aliquo DAO through a symbolic voting named ‘‘Aliquo Init’’, via Snapshot.
The launch of Aliquo Dashboard (public beta) — a key tool for the fulfillment of Aliquo — occurs two weeks after all AQ1 becomes minted.
