13.11.2021 - Dex launch delayed, new AD event and future events #2
Dex launch delay
Unfortunately it wasn't possible to launch ICY in Photonswap today, because of the Cronos issues.
Cronos bridge didn't work and a lot of CROs got stuck and it wasn't possible to add liquidity for the CRO-ICY pool.
Yes, we were using alternative RPC, but it didn't help.
We are sorry that this didn't go like planned, but as ICY is in Cronos, we can't do much without it. Basically our only tokens that are independent from the Cronos are the two oak tokens.
Launch will happen sometimes during the Monday afternoon/evening. When we have added the liquidity, we will inform everyone in Twitter and Telegram.
AD event until 14th of November 23.59 UTC.
As ICY dex launch was delayed, we will reopen the Airdrops for Donators event.
You have until Sunday evening to get ICYs with the prelaunch price.
For every 1k CROs you donate to our Jackpot pool, you will get airdrop of 5k ICYs.
To participate to this event:
Send 1k+ CROs to our Cronos Jackpot wallet:
0x34fD77B09fca3E6D7E817176b3dEcC380a3eE7F6
or
Send 1k+ CROs to the IcyCRO's Jackpot Pool:
- Address is: cro1j47t9xajph8fxe87mx9n6yjz05u64vr7ak9853
- Memo: Add metamask wallet address where you want the ICYs airdropped (0x...).
ICYs will be airdropped on Monday before the dex launch.
Dex launch promotion for the Icy+ level liquidity providers.
10k ICY airdrop:
This promotion is only open for Icy+ level VIPs (100k+ ICYs staked).
For every 2k ICYs you add to the PhotonSwap ICY-CRO pool in 8h after the launch, you will get airdrop of 1k ICYs. Max 10k ICYs per person. Drop will happen after three months, if you keep the liquidity in the pool until then.
Top5 Icy+ level liquidity providers.
This promotion is only open for Icy+ level VIPs (100k+ ICYs staked).
10k-50k ICY prizes, total of 120k ICYs.
There are extra prizes for top5 highest liquidity providers in first 8 hours, if they keep at least the same liquidity for 6 months.
1st: 50k ICYs
2nd: 30k ICYs
3rd: 20k ICYs
4th and 5th: 10k ICYs
Risks:
Please remember that there are some risks providing liquidity to the dex pools.
Here is one quite good article:
https://academy.binance.com/en/articles/impermanent-loss-explained
We would presume CRO-ICY pair will be quite stable as the main attraction is the CRO jackpot. As you will get part of the fees from every trade and we have extra promotions top of it, we hope everyone makes some profit, but we can't guarantee it.
Future events list was changed a bit also.
15.11 - Dex launch.
20.11 - First Burnicy game.
26.11 - Community Booster #3 event.
15.12 - First CRO Jackpot and 2nd Burnicy game.

08.11.2021 - Cronos launched and ICY will follow in the evening.
ICY launch will be at 22.00 UTC time today.
Before the launch, you can make sure you have Metamask wallet ready for the Cronos and ICYs. You can use either Brave or Chrome browser:
Brave browser has Metamask included: https://brave.com/
For Chrome you can install Metamask : https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/metamask/nkbihfbeogaeaoehlefnkodbefgpgknn
Whitepaper 1.01 version:
How to claim ICYs you have earned:
If you won some ICYs from the Cassini testing, they will be automatically credited directly to the same address you used for the testing.
If you participated to validator events, you need to pair your Crypto.org wallet with your Metamask wallet so we know where to send your ICYs.
You can do this by sending 0.001 CROs from your Crypto.org DeFi wallet.
To the IcyCRO.org wallet that we use as a ledger. Address: cro13sspaluakmld27em3duhmkzxy8g6frrfu2xp3u
Add your Metamask wallet address to the memo.
Icy Builder packages:
Everyone who stakes 100k ICYs during the first 48 hours will be an ICY Builder instead of a regular staker. Extra benefits for the builders are:
200k ICY bonus after 24 months (credited 20k ICYs per month when time is full).
Early access to our events / projects.
Higher benefits from our partners and sponsors.
Unique IcyCRO launch NFT.
Two builder packages per person is the maximum (200k staked) and only people who have participated in our events are eligible.
After 48 hours are full, we will arrange the builders on a list based on their ICY stacks. Biggest stack gets the 1st builder packages and 2nd biggest after. Doesn't matter when you stake as long as you do it during the 48 hours.
For example, if the biggest stack is 400k and he stakes the 400k ICYs (4*100k), this gives:
Two builder packages.
Two NFTs. First and 2nd edition.
Ticket numbers 001-004 to the monthly CRO Jackpot raffle.

Juha and the IcyCRO Team

04.11.2021 - Prelaunch blogs (3/4) - Our RNG and Burnicy game
Random Number Generator
Problem with all the online and crypto raffles is that participants need to fully trust the organizer. If someone organizes a $10k raffle, how do you know it is fair or if it is actually happening? Usually you can't see how the winner was chosen, you can't see the prize or who it was paid. Whole raffle is based on the fact that you just need to trust that the organizer is honest and the raffle is fair.
IcyCRO team is probably the most trusted and well known team in the Cronos, but we wanted to make a system that you don't need to trust us.
We did something that no-one else has tried before. We let the blockchain decide the ticket numbers and winning numbers. We tested this system with 290k+ transactions during the Cassini testing and it worked perfectly.
Benefits of blockchain based raffle:
Every transaction is visible, so everyone can see who participated and what their ticket numbers were.
TxHash is permanent and can't be deleted or changed.
Winning number can be checked from the chain.
Payments for the winners will be visible in the chain also.
Burnicy game
Like the name says, this is a game where you burn ICY tokens to have a chance to win more ICY tokens. As the RTP (Return to Player) is 112%-113.5%, playing the game is a good investment on average and if you don't win, at least some ICYs are burned and the value of the remaining ICYs will go up.
How does the game work:
Send 1k or 10k ICYs to our Burn Wallet. Last 3 numbers of your TxHash is your ticket number.
On the 15th of each month, we will burn all the ICYs from the Burn Wallet.
Txhash of the burning transaction will show the winning number. Last three numbers again.
Winners will have 10 days to claim their winnings.
Winners will get their ICYs.
How much you can win in the Burnicy game:
We have 10M ICYs reserved for the Burnicy game.
RTP% for the ICY game is 112%-113.5%.
1k ICY bet: First 2 ticket numbers: 100k ICY, all 3 numbers 120k ICY.
10k ICY bet: First 1 ticket numbers: 100k ICY, first 2 numbers 120k ICY and all 3 numbers 150k ICY.
Icy Jackpot
Same winning number from the Burnicy game will also decide who wins the monthly CRO Jackpot.
In the jackpot raffle, participants only have the same static numbers every month. If you were the first to stake 100k ICYs, your number is 001. Second staker will get 002 and so on.
Best regards,
Juha and the IcyCRO Team
03.11.2021 - Prelaunch blogs (2/4) - Staking and CRO jackpot
Staking
Staking means locking your ICY tokens for at least two years to get benefits and monthly chance to win part of the CRO Jackpot. When you have collected 100k ICYs, you can stake them by sending them to our staking wallet, which will be announced later.
Icy
Everyone who has 100k staked will get Icy level benefits:
Monthly chance to win part of the CRO Jackpot.
Early access to future projects.
Benefits from our sponsors.
Chance to influence more on what projects we do.
Obsidian status is given for everyone with 500k staked. Then you are officially an Icy Whale:
You get all the benefits from the Icy level.
Better benefits from our sponsors.
Even more exclusive access to our events.
Real IcyCRO token made from oak will be mailed to you.
ICY Builder
If you stake 100k during the first 48 hours from the launch, you will get an ICY Builder status and an extra 200k ICY bonus is paid after two years (20k per month). Each builder will also get an ICY NFT. First edition goes to the first staker. Max two builder packages per person.
CRO Jackpot
Starting from 15th of December, every month stakers will have a chance to win part of the CRO Jackpot pool which is expected to be from 50k to 100k CROs.
How do the CROs come to the jackpot pool:
100% of commissions and fees from our validators are added to the jackpot.
100% of the CROs we earn from our projects go to the jackpot.
100% of the CROs from our sponsors are added to the jackpot.
100% of the CROs earned from the presale go to the jackpot.
100% of CROs donated to our project go to the jackpot.
On the 15th of each month, Cronos chain will show if there is a winner. If there are no winners, our jackpot pool just keeps growing. If the jackpot is won, this is how it is shared:
60% is saved as a seed fund for the next jackpot.
12% is given to the winner (all three numbers correct).
18% is shared between everyone else with the first two numbers correct.
10% goes for the server fees.
Example:
Winning number is 350 => 350th staker will win the main jackpot and up to nine others (351st-359th) will win a smaller share.
We have a jackpot of 50k CROs.
60% is saved for the next jackpot (30k CROs).
12% goes to the jackpot winner (6k CROs) + other cryptos top of the CROs. .
18% is split between 9 people (1k CROs each).
10% goes for the server fees (2k CROs).
Best regards,
Juha and the IcyCRO Team
02.11.2021 - Prelaunch blogs (1/4) - Mission
We believe that Crypto.com will grow fast in the next few years and CRO will be one of the top cryptos. Success of the Crypto.org Mainnet / Cronos will be important for CRO's future and we will do our best to help.
There is a myth in the crypto world that completely free decentralization is always a good thing and leads to the best results. This clearly isn't true. In a completely free system the strongest companies will control everything, block new companies from the market and this will hurt the customer.
In Crypto.org this has also been clearly shown for a long time already. If we don't count the validators that IcyCRO has boosted in, it's already over 120 days since the last new community validator has joined. It doesn't mean there haven't been any new validators. During this time 15+ validators have joined, but they were created by groups that had multiple validators already. If this continues like this, these groups can control 40%+ of the validators, which could cause serious issues for the delegators and for the mainnet.
Some of these groups are here just to abuse the system and consider delegators as prey to be scammed for all the CROs possible. Others just copy-paste their validator to a new quite low quality server and give us a new clone validator asking for 10% fees and giving nothing for the community.
This is where we join the game. ICY token isn't even launched yet, but we have already boosted four community validators to the top100 and we keep doing this 1-2 times per month to keep the bottom end of the top100 list full. We will review every candidate wishing to join the mainnet and boost the ones that actually give some value for the community and delegators. We call this "Controlled Decentralisation".
We certainly will have our hands full with community boosters, ICY jackpots and Burnicy games, but we also have other plans. There will be NFTs. There will be oaken tokens. We will be working with the best Dexes and helping them as much as we can. We may expand elsewhere in the Cosmos in validator business. And we may do things we can't even imagine at this point as the possibilities are limitless.
We are the only Cronos project that combines the skills of the developers with the power of the community. With our team and our contacts and supporters, there are no limits on projects we can launch in the future.
Best regards,
Juha and the IcyCRO Team
28.10.2021 - Second community booster: dWeb Guide
Today we have our second community booster event.
It's already over 120 days since last fresh community validator joined the top100 without our help, so there is a need for these events. Other option is just watch new scam validators joining every 14 days, which are hurting delegators and ruining the reputation of Crypto.org.
This time event starts 20.00 UK time and ends in 10 minutes or when the target is reached.
Now we will boost dWeb Guide, which is a good target for our help:
They have been been active over 1.5 years.
They collected 589k CROs themselves and just need the final push to top100. They have been waiting just under the line for over month now.
Their validator is hosted and supported by Allnodes, which pretty much guarantees that everything will go without technical problems in their end.
This even has the same principle than earlier ones. Help us launch the validator to the top100 and after 28 days you can redelegate to different validator, if you wish.
Validator: dWeb Guide | 0% Fee
Mintscan address: https://www.mintscan.io/crypto-org/validators/crocncl1pzqahufgfhnngz0y5try5tku2cpayu46psdfr6
Validator address: crocncl1pzqahufgfhnngz0y5try5tku2cpayu46psdfr6
0% fees for at least for the first month and 500k+ ICYs for the delegators.
How many ICYs you will get depends on how much you delegate to the dWeb Guide validator today before the deadline:
Minimum delegation 10k CROs.
Maximum delegation 200k CROs.
For every 10k CROs delegated, you will receive 5k ICYs.
Extra 5k ICY bonus is credited to everyone who had delegated to Jerboa in the previous event and delegates now at least 10k.
This ICY drop will happen after the launch of the ICY token on 10th of November.
When does the event end?
Even will last 10 minutes, but can end earlier if 2M delegations is reached.
After 10 minutes is full, event will end when 1.5M CRO delegations is reached.
Who is eligible:
A: Everyone who participated previous events. You need to use the same address for this delegations also.
B: Everyone who follows us in Twitter at this moment (267 people). If you aren't part of group A, then PM us in Twitter with your CRO address so we know you are eligible.
Thank you all for participating .
Best regards,
IcyCRO Team

30.09.2021 - First community booster: Jerboa Pool
Today we have our first community booster event.
Starts 18.30 UK time and ends in 30 minutes or when 1.3M CRO target is reached.
We had three good candidates and it wasn't easy for our team to choose the winner, but Jerboa Pool was chosen for the community booster this time.
Enthusiasm of the team, technical knowledge, reasonable fees, good website and self-delegation of 88k CROs decided the winner.
This even has the same principle than earlier ones. Help us launch the validator to the top100 and after 28 days you can redelegate to different validator, if you wish.
0% fees, 500k+ ICYs for the delegators and 1k CRO raffle again.
Validator: Jerboa Pool | 0% Fee in 2021
Mintscan address: https://www.mintscan.io/crypto-org/validators/crocncl1y02esnw7k0pa9y3s2pke53f2n02cq73233xm3d
Validator address: crocncl1y02esnw7k0pa9y3s2pke53f2n02cq73233xm3d
We will drop at least 500k ICYs (max 1M ICYs) to the people who participate to this event and help us to launch the validator. This ICY drop will happen after the launch of the token on 20th of October.
Who is eligible:
A: Everyone who had at least 1k CROs delegated to some validator on 15th of August. You need to use the same address for this delegations also.
B: Everyone who follows us in Twitter at this moment (164 people). If you aren't part of group A, then PM us in Twitter with your CRO address so we know you are eligible.
How many ICYs you can get depends on how much you delegate to the Jerboa Pool validator today before the deadline:
10k CRO = 10k ICY
20k CRO = 20k ICY
50k CRO = 30k ICY
100k CRO = 40k ICY
200k CRO = 50k ICY
300k CRO = 60k ICY
400k CRO = 70k ICY
Offer continues at least until the total delegations reach 1.3M CROs. Minimum 30 minutes.
1000 CRO draw:
We also have a 1000 CRO draw between the delegators who participate before the deadline.
The last two numbers of your TX number of your delegation gives your ticket number. You get one number per 10k delegations. If you delegate 30k and your number is 75, you will also get two next numbers: 76 and 77.
If your number matches the winning number given later today, you win your share of the 1k CROs.
The chain (TX number from Finland to Obsidian) will decide who is the winner.
Thank you all for participating .

22.09.2021 - Launch of the Obsidian validator
*****
EDIT: Deadline for the offer was at 20.05 UK time so this is over now. Thank you all for participation.
*****
Today we are launching our best Crypto.org chain validator, Obsidian.
Mainnet's current problem is that no new community validators have joined in last months and new validators that that have been launched have been very harmful for the delegators. You can read more about it from here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Crypto_com/comments/pmdnl7/stakeandgetrich_aka_pool_aka_pancake_pool_s_rug/
Because of these issues, we will launch one more reliable validator to the bottom end of the list.
We will drop at least 500k ICYs (max 1M ICYs) to the people who participate to this event and help us to launch the validator. This ICY drop will happen after the launch of the token on 20th of October.
Obsidian will have 0% fees for at least two months and you are free to redelegate back to your original validator after 28 days.
Who is eligible:
A: Everyone who had at least 1k CROs delegated to some validator on 15th of August. You need to use the same address for this delegations also.
B: Everyone who follows us in Twitter at this moment (136 people). If you aren't part of group A, then PM us in Twitter with your CRO address so we know you are eligible.
How many ICYs you can get depends on how much you delegate to Obsidian validator today until the deadline:
10k CRO = 10k ICY
20k CRO = 20k ICY
50k CRO = 30k ICY
100k CRO = 40k ICY
200k CRO = 50k ICY
300k CRO = 60k ICY
400k CRO = 70k ICY
Offer continues at least until the total delegations reach 1M CROs.

26.08.2021 - Project ICY and our plans.
This is the first time I am writing a blog so let's see how this goes.
Crypto.org mainnet has a huge potential and we are big fans of it. Which is the reason we started our own validator immediately in March 2021 to have a low fee, high quality and safe validator for our own CROs and CROs of our friends. It was still a bit surprise that we are already one of the most popular community validators together with Jerry's Pool.
Crypto.org chain has been running quite well for the first five months and 2M blocks, but there has been some issues with the validators. CDC / Bison Trails started in March with 9 validators, but they have increased the amount already to 14 as there haven't been enough high quality community validators available.
During the past few months we haven't seen hardly any new community validators joining as the amount of CROs needed is too high. This isn't good news for decentralization and or the health of the network.
Our project ICY's first step is to launch a validator to the CRO mainnet. All the the fees earned from the validator will go to the jackpot pool together with the CROs from our sponsors.
Everyone who participates to the project will earn ICY tokens. After you collect and stake 100k ICYs you will have a chance to win part the CRO Jackpot, which we hope to reach 50k+ CROs during 2022.
Our first 50 stakers will also get a Golden Ticket NFT, highest interest rate and the best VIP benefits for some of the future projects. If you are slower in the beginning, we still have 200 Silver Ticket NFTs for our next stakers. Benefits are smaller than for Golden tickets, but still excellent.
Follow us in Twitter to see the latest airdrops and projects.

Juha
