Contango Addresses TANGO Token Sale Concerns
🤔 TANGO's sell pressure solution?

Contango addresses concerns about potential sell pressure after the upcoming TANGO token sale:
- The Fjord sale uses a fixed-price mechanism at $45M FDV ($0.045 per token)
- Early users get oTANGO, an option token for discounted TANGO
- oTANGO claimable after sale, can be sold for profit if price > $0.045
- Private investors and team have cliffs/vesting periods
- No unlocking for at least 6 months after Balancer pool seeding
This structure aims to minimize initial sell pressure while rewarding early adopters. The oTANGO mechanism in particular aligns incentives by only being profitable above the sale price.
