= Crowdsales
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Crowdsales are a popular use for Ethereum; they let you allocate tokens to network participants in various ways, mostly in exchange for Ether. They come in a variety of shapes and flavors, so let's go over the various types available in OpenZeppelin Contracts and how to use them.
|
|
|
+All crowdsale-related contracts were removed from the OpenZeppelin Contracts library on the https://forum.openzeppelin.com/t/openzeppelin-contracts-v3-0-beta-release/2256[v3.0.0 release] due to both a decline in their usage and the complexity associated with migrating them to Solidity v0.6.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Crowdsales have a bunch of different properties, but here are some important ones:
|
|
|
+They are however still available on the v2.5 release of OpenZeppelin Contracts, which you can install by running:
|
|
|
|
|
|
-* Price & Rate Configuration
|
|
|
-* Does your crowdsale sell tokens at a fixed price?
|
|
|
-* Does the price change over time or as a function of demand?
|
|
|
-* Emission
|
|
|
-* How is this token actually sent to participants?
|
|
|
-* Validation — Who is allowed to purchase tokens?
|
|
|
-* Are there KYC / AML checks?
|
|
|
-* Is there a max cap on tokens?
|
|
|
-* What if that cap is per-participant?
|
|
|
-* Is there a starting and ending time frame?
|
|
|
-* Distribution
|
|
|
-* Does distribution of funds happen in real-time or after the crowdsale?
|
|
|
-* Can participants receive a refund if the goal is not met?
|
|
|
+```console
|
|
|
+$ npm install @openzeppelin/contracts@v2.5
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
|
|
|
-To manage all of the different combinations and flavors of crowdsales, Contracts provides a highly configurable xref:api:crowdsale.adoc#Crowdsale[`Crowdsale`] base contract that can be combined with various other functionalities to construct a bespoke crowdsale.
|

|
|
|
-[[crowdsale-rate]]
|
|
|
-== Crowdsale Rate
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Understanding the rate of a crowdsale is super important, and mistakes here are a common source of bugs.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-✨ *HOLD UP FAM THIS IS IMPORTANT* ✨
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Firstly, *all currency math is done in the smallest unit of that currency and converted to the correct decimal places when _displaying_ the currency*.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-This means that when you do math in your smart contracts, you need to understand that you're adding, dividing, and multiplying the smallest amount of a currency (like wei), _not_ the commonly-used displayed value of the currency (Ether).
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-In Ether, the smallest unit of the currency is wei, and `1 ETH === 10^18 wei`. In tokens, the process is _very similar_: `1 TKN === 10^(decimals) TKNbits`.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* The smallest unit of a token is "bits" or `TKNbits`.
|
|
|
-* The display value of a token is `TKN`, which is `TKNbits * 10^(decimals)`
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-What people usually call "one token" is actually a bunch of TKNbits, displayed to look like `1 TKN`. This is the same relationship that Ether and wei have. And what you're _always_ doing calculations in is *TKNbits and wei*.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-So, if you want to issue someone "one token for every 2 wei" and your decimals are 18, your rate is `0.5e18`. Then, when I send you `2 wei`, your crowdsale issues me `2 * 0.5e18 TKNbits`, which is exactly equal to `10^18 TKNbits` and is displayed as `1 TKN`.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-If you want to issue someone "`1 TKN` for every `1 ETH`", and your decimals are 18, your rate is `1`. This is because what's actually happening with the math is that the contract sees a user send `10^18 wei`, not `1 ETH`. Then it uses your rate of 1 to calculate `TKNbits = rate * wei`, or `1 * 10^18`, which is still `10^18`. And because your decimals are 18, this is displayed as `1 TKN`.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-One more for practice: if I want to issue "1 TKN for every dollar (USD) in Ether", we would calculate it as follows:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* assume 1 ETH == $400
|
|
|
-* therefore, 10^18 wei = $400
|
|
|
-* therefore, 1 USD is `10^18 / 400`, or `2.5 * 10^15 wei`
|
|
|
-* we have a decimals of 18, so we'll use `10 ^ 18 TKNbits` instead of `1 TKN`
|
|
|
-* therefore, if the participant sends the crowdsale `2.5 * 10^15 wei` we should give them `10 ^ 18 TKNbits`
|
|
|
-* therefore the rate is `2.5 * 10^15 wei === 10^18 TKNbits`, or `1 wei = 400 TKNbits`
|
|
|
-* therefore, our rate is `400`
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-(this process is pretty straightforward when you keep 18 decimals, the same as Ether/wei)
|

-[[token-emission]]
|
|
|
-== Token Emission
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-One of the first decisions you have to make is "how do I get these tokens to users?". This is usually done in one of three ways:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* (default) — The `Crowdsale` contract owns tokens and simply transfers tokens from its own ownership to users that purchase them.
|
|
|
-* xref:api:crowdsale.adoc#MintedCrowdsale[`MintedCrowdsale`] — The `Crowdsale` mints tokens when a purchase is made.
|
|
|
-* xref:api:crowdsale.adoc#AllowanceCrowdsale[`AllowanceCrowdsale`] — The `Crowdsale` is granted an allowance to another wallet (like a Multisig) that already owns the tokens to be sold in the crowdsale.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-[[default-emission]]
|
|
|
-=== Default Emission
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-In the default scenario, your crowdsale must own the tokens that are sold. You can send the crowdsale tokens through a variety of methods, but here's what it looks like in Solidity:
|
|
|
-
|
|

|
|
-IERC20(tokenAddress).transfer(CROWDSALE_ADDRESS, SOME_TOKEN_AMOUNT);
|
|
|
-----
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Then when you deploy your crowdsale, simply tell it about the token

|
-=== Minted Crowdsale
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-To use a xref:api:crowdsale.adoc#MintedCrowdsale[`MintedCrowdsale`], your token must also be a xref:api:token/ERC20.adoc#ERC20Mintable[`ERC20Mintable`] token that the crowdsale has permission to mint from. This can look like:

|
|
|
-* xref:api:crowdsale.adoc#IndividuallyCappedCrowdsale[`IndividuallyCappedCrowdsale`] — caps an individual's contributions.
|
|
|
-* xref:api:crowdsale.adoc#WhitelistCrowdsale[`WhitelistCrowdsale`] — only allow whitelisted participants to purchase tokens. this is useful for putting your KYC / AML whitelist on-chain!
|
|
|
-* xref:api:crowdsale.adoc#TimedCrowdsale[`TimedCrowdsale`] — adds an xref:api:crowdsale.adoc#TimedCrowdsale-openingTime--[`openingTime`] and xref:api:Crowdsale.adoc#TimedCrowdsale-closingTime--[`closingTime`] to your crowdsale

-There comes a time in every crowdsale's life where it must relinquish the tokens it's been entrusted with. It's your decision as to when that happens!
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The default behavior is to release tokens as participants purchase them, but sometimes that may not be desirable. For example, what if we want to give users a refund if we don't hit a minimum raised in the sale? Or, maybe we want to wait until after the sale is over before users can claim their tokens and start trading them, perhaps for compliance reasons?
