Investment & Raising

Raising Period

The PenguMiner raising runs until October 10, 2026. During this period, investors deposit USDT into the ecosystem.

Key Principles

• 100% of deposits are frozen — no one can access the funds, including the development team

• All funds are held in a smart contract with no withdrawal function until launch

• Investors receive full transparency on how their allocation will be used

What Investors Get

Immediate

• A dashboard showing their total investment and allocation options

• Access to community channels and development updates

Before October 8, 2026

Investors can allocate their frozen deposit across three paths:

Path	What You Get	When
PGM Allocation	PGM tokens, 1:1 dollar-backed	October 10, 2026
In-Game Spending	Metal + items for your Pengu	Immediately
5-Year Plan	Double PGM allocation	October 10, 2031

Any portion not allocated by October 8 defaults to PGM allocation.

Example: $10,000 Investment

Total invested: $10,000 (frozen)

Allocation decision before Oct 8:
├── $2,000 → In-game spending (Metal, items, Beta Access)
├── $3,000 → 5-Year Plan (double PGM, released Oct 2031)
└── $5,000 → PGM allocation (tokens on Oct 10, 2026)

Result on Oct 10, 2026:
├── $5,000 worth of PGM tokens (dollar-backed)
├── $3,000 locked → $6,000 worth of PGM on Oct 10, 2031
└── $2,000 already spent on in-game progression

Beta Access

Investors who allocate $1,000 or more to in-game spending unlock Beta Access.

Beta includes:

• Early access to the game before public launch

• First-mover advantage on Fish Generator strength

• Ability to accumulate XP and equipment before competition arrives

• Exclusive Beta participant cosmetics

The $1,000+ spent on in-game items is immediately converted to liquidity, beginning yield generation before launch.

The 5-Year Plan

For long-term believers. Lock any portion of your investment until October 10, 2031 and receive double the PGM allocation.

• Tokens are minted and locked in a vesting contract

• No early withdrawal — the lock is absolute

• The backing USDT remains in the reserve pool, strengthening the price floor for the full 5 years

This option is designed for investors who believe in PenguMiner's long-term vision and want maximum token allocation at the cost of liquidity.

Fund Security

Smart Contract Custody

All invested funds are held in audited smart contracts. There is no multisig, no team wallet, no manual access.

Why Freeze Everything?

1. Investor protection — No one can run with the money

2. Price floor guarantee — The USDT backing PGM is real and verifiable

3. Trust — In a space full of rugs, frozen funds are the strongest signal

Development Funding

Development costs are funded separately from investor deposits. The raised funds are exclusively for:

• PGM token backing (reserve pool)

• PGM/USDT liquidity pool

• Initial DeFi liquidity positions for yield generation
