Hey all we are less than 24 hours away from the Fjord presale. https://x.com/OverlayProtocol/status/1878441856880787767

The Fjord sale sold out in 39 seconds! Thank you to our community. The next steps are clear and launch is imminent!

Prior to the Berachain mainnet launch, our team will conduct a snapshot of the xOVL placeholder token. OVL tokens will be distributed according to the snapshot list.

Please stay vigilant of potential scams. You do not need to stake or transfer your placeholder tokens to any other wallet.

Stay safe and thank you for your continued support!

Hey everyone — Omar here, stepping in as the Director at Overlay Protocol, you will see me more around: listening, asking questions, sharing updates and pushing things forward.
Thanks to everyone who joined the AMA on Discord — really appreciated !!

Below is the announcement to summarize the AMA.
Our plan is to do an exclusive IDO with Binance W3W, which will lead into Binance Alpha. Binance Alpha is the key entry into Binance’s Web3 ecosystem. It connects directly to Binance Wallet users, on-chain campaigns, and DEX liquidity via PancakeSwap.
This will open the doors toward Binance Perps and eventually Spot after meeting the metrics, we also have the door open to apply for a $500K liquidity loan from Binance to support the buy side and help stabilize early market performance.
IDO -> DEX/ Binance Alpha -> if token performs well in terms of vol and price, can get into Binance Perps (no cost) -> if able to sustain performance -> potential Binance Spot.

An important part of the above is the tokenomics and how that will look, we will release and update over the weekend
—

Day 2: Solana Bridge Strategy
On Day 2 (or very soon after) post-launch, we’ll bridge the token to Solana to tap into SOL liquidity, drive arbitrage and trading volume to BSC too, and to strengthen our market depth + price performance.
(We are actively looking for ways to get Solana users onto the testnet but this looks hard because our entire platform is EVM. If anyone has an idea here – other than rewriting contracts or working with NeonEVM – please reach out.)
This multi-chain strategy helps us hit volume and price KPIs faster, supporting the path to multiple listings.
—
Alternative routes: Some members of the community have urged us to explore other routes, like a Bybit or OKX launchpad. We will explore these as well.
