4 min readDec 9, 2024

Alpaca Network is the latest innovative project launching with Starter on Base, combining decentralized AI solutions with real-world applications.

Here’s how you can join Alpaca Network’s eagerly awaited IDO and secure your allocation of $PACA.

Step 1: Buy $BUIDL

To participate in Alpaca Network’s IDO, you’ll need to hold and stake $BUIDL tokens or hold a BUIDLER NFT (No staking required).

You can buy $BUIDL or BUIDLER NFT’s directly on:

Step 2: Stake $BUIDL on Starter

After purchasing $BUIDL tokens, visit Starter.xyz’s Staking page.

  1. Click on Staking Pools.
  2. Select the BUIDL pool to stake your tokens.
  3. Connect your selected wallet.

Staking determines your tier and eligibility for the IDO.

The more $BUIDL you stake, the greater your allocation and benefits.

For further in-depth information check out our guide on our docs here.

Step 3: Check Your Eligibility

Your tier will determine your participation round and allocation:

  • 5000 $BUIDL: Entry into the first-come-first-served (FCFS) tier.
  • 50,000 $BUIDL: Guaranteed allocation during the Head Start round, with an allocation based on the amount staked. The Guaranteed Allocation (GA) is initially smaller, but you can buy more up to the maximum wallet limit in the later stages.
  • 125,000+ $BUIDL: Access to Gold Tier benefits, including private sales, and exclusive perks.
  • 250,000+ $BUIDL: All of the Platinum and Gold Tier benefits, plus access to our private VIP investor club.

Step 4: Prepare for the IDO

Ensure your wallet is funded with the required currency (USDC) before the IDO begins.

For Alpaca’s IDO:

  • IDO Price: $0.0025 per $PACA
  • Max Contribution: $1,000 per wallet (USDC)

There are two USDC on BASE network, make sure you have the USDC listed from this address.

Vesting Details:

Step 5: Participate in the IDO

Treble’s IDO on Starter will feature three rounds to ensure fairness:

This is an example timeline; actual times may vary depending on the IDO launch schedule.

Head Start Round

During the Guaranteed Allocation (GA) period, participants in the Gold Tier and above can secure a smaller initial allocation.

Once the GA period ends, any remaining tokens will be available for purchase, allowing participants to acquire additional tokens up to the maximum wallet limit.

  • Eligibility: Open to Gold Tier and above.
  • Important: Participants can only purchase their Guaranteed Allocation during this phase.

Diamond Hands FCFS:

  • Available to all tiers who staked their $BUIDL for at least 7 days before the IDO.
  • Participants with 2 or more 404 BUIDLER NFTs gain early access to this phase, allowing them to purchase the remaining allocation before others.
  • Priority Access: Early participants get priority access to the remaining allocation.

Paper Hands FCFS:

  • Open to everyone with at least 5,000 $BUIDL staked or holding 1 BUIDLER NFT.
