The $QUID Public Sale Recap

From announcing the $QUID Public Sale to running it for 72 hours and closing 11.9x oversubscribed, it’s been an exhilarating few weeks here at Squid (and dare we say, for crypto?).

$QUID marks a significant milestone for Squid, and the success of the Public Sale starts our next chapter off with a bang. We want to again thank everyone who has supported Squid on our journey and to all those who participated in the public sale.

The sale exceeded all expectations and has left us truly overwhelmed with gratitude for every single one of you. As stated in our blog introducing $QUID: Whether it’s a crypto app, defi wallet, or even a payments platform for RWAs Squid will be wherever we can to ensure your experience is seamless.

From one chain to another and across every ecosystem, Squid will be there. Whether it’s swapping, bridging, buying, or selling, each action will be more seamless than the last. From stablecoins to RWAs, wallets to consumer apps, institutional to global liquidity, Squid makes crypto whole. And the places we go aren’t by chance or good luck, but from years of hard work and improving our product each and every day.

Our next milestone is coming soon (and yes, it’s TGE). We’ll be announcing an official TGE date in the coming weeks, so please stay tuned!

And enjoy this recap of the $QUID Public Sale 💜
