Tangent’s mission is to merge art with finance on the Cardano (ADA) Network by focusing on the development of NonFungible Tokens and their applications within finance and gaming. Tangent will be the radical art project built on the Cardano (ADA) blockchain with regular innovative and experimental NFT launches to push the boundaries between the real and digital world. Further team plans include the integration of an onchain gaming hub & the incorporation of the Tangent Artistic Grants programme, with the mission to support artists with publicity and financial backing. Investors of TANG will have the option to vote on the development and direction of the Tangent ecosystem, such as the ability for users to pay for art (both physical & digital) and on chain transactions using the native token, in a cost effective and efficient manner. Tangent will utilize the low fees and security of the Cardano Network with bonus rewards when TANG is used as the form of payment.
Tangent will further act as a bridge between both the artist & investor by creating a platform for emerging talents to grow with Tangent through the implementation of artistic grants and our ambassadorship programme. The team’s aim is to cut out the use of third-party brokerage, allowing the artist to receive a fair percentage for the art created. Tangent will be offering exposure to both traditional decentralized finance services and our innovative NFT Farming ecosystem by leveraging the powerful usability of the Cardano Network in conjunction with both our Tanglobe and the TangentDAO powered by the native governance token TANG.
The blockchain industry is currently undergoing the largest fundamental shift in its recent history, equivalent to those of the telecom industry, personal computing, and the internet two decades ago. Tangent aims to contribute to this change with a clinically executed plan to pay homage to the Cardano Network through a one-of-a-kind NFT staking platform.
TANGENT is the radical web3 art & finance project that is built on top of the Cardano blockchain and aims to bring new financial utility and smart contract functionality to NFTs; forever changing the way the crypto community interact with digital art.
The TANGENT REDEEMABLE NFT LAUNCHPAD supports artists, creators and enterprises whilst allowing for the sale and funding of tangible NFTs backed by the tokenization of real-world items, products, and assets. Each Redeemable NFT is backed 1 to 1 by a physical item or product in the real world and these can be redeemed from the NFT issuer via the launchpad redemption function.
The TANGENT NFT FARM provides DeFi services and solutions on Cardano to projects, developers, and end users. Tangent is a DeFi-as-a-Service (DaaS) platform serving the farming needs of the Cardano community. NFT Farming is the next step in the evolution of complex NFTs, that on one level are collectible digital art pieces but on another, form parts of smart contracts that are utilized within decentralized finance. These NFTs are not only aesthetically pleasing but possess staking capabilities within Farming Pools thus generating yield rewards for each user. Tangent has coined the phrase Operative Artwork to describe this function. The TANGENT NFT FARM will eventually be completely permissionless, providing a platform where any user (even those with zero knowledge of coding) can create their own NFT Farming Pools on Cardano.
Please refer to our White Paper for more detailed info about the TANGENT roadmap and the TANG Token.
TANG Token qualifies as a utility token pursuant to Liechtenstein’s Act on Token and Trustworthy Technology Service Providers (TVTG).
TANG Tokens do not constitute any absolute or relative rights at all. TANG tokens make absolutely no promise of share in revenue, earnings or any other form of income. This token’s purpose is specifically as a utility and to facilitate the governance of the TANGENT ecosystem.
Launched on the Cardano Blockchain, TANG Token is a Cardano based token. Details about the Cardano Blockchain are available online at https://cardano.org/.
TANGENT through the TANG Token Sale is financing operations and other costs related to the TANGENT components. TANGENT has created the TANG Token as a utility token with a long term incentive model for customers and platform users.
TANGENT has chosen LCX to manage and facilitate the TANG Token Sale.
For the purpose of the token sale, TANGENT authorized LCX AG to facilitate the public offering through LCX AG on behalf and account of TANGENT. For the TANG Token Sale LCX is also responsible for the investor identification in LCX’s role as TT Identity Service Providers and secure custody in LCX’s role as TT Token Depositary and TT Key Depositary.
After concluding the TANG Token Sale, LCX will be listing TANG at LCX Exchange in LCX’s role as TT Exchange Service Provider.
The TANG Tokens will be publicly offered by LCX AG to the users of the LCX platform.
The TANG Token does not represent any contractual rights or claims that entitle the Token holder to receive payments or other forms of compensation, or give the Token holder ownership of a legal person, contractual rights or any similar rights.
Token holders cannot request an exchange or redemption of the monetary value vis-à-vis the issuer, LCX, or vis-à-vis TANGENT.
Users can subscribe for TANG Tokens, in the sense of an expression of intent for the purchase of Tokens to be placed on the market, when the public offer begins. If the number of subscriptions reaches the existing quantity of Tokens to be placed on the market by LCX, then LCX completes the public offer and distributes the Tokens to the users who subscribed for them.
The main minting supply is 3,141,592,650 TANGs. Of this supply 2% is reserved for Private Sale, 20% is reserved for Presale, 8% for Public Sale – in total 30% for the 2-Phase Public Sale , 25% for Communal Rewards, 15% for NFT Bounties, 10% for Tangent Foundation, 10% for Strategic Partnerships & Development and 10% for Artistic Grants & Ambassador Programme.
The issue date of the TANG Tokens will be September 1st, 2022.
The Issuer is not obliged to provide Token holders with a refund for any reason and Token holders cannot request an exchange or redemption of the monetary value vis-à-vis LCX AG or vis-à-vis TANGENT.
Tokens will be provided on an “as is” basis. The Issuer and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, equity holders and affiliates make no representations or warranties of any kind. Digital assets are part of a new and rapidly evolving industry, and the value of TANG depends on the development and acceptance of this industry.
Extreme volatility in the future could have a material adverse effect on the value of TANG and TANG could lose all or substantially all of its value.
Digital asset networks are dependent upon the internet. A disruption of the internet or a digital asset network, such as the Cardano Network, would affect the ability to transfer digital assets, including ADA, and, consequently, their value.
Many digital asset networks face significant scaling challenges and are being upgraded with various features to increase the speed and throughput of digital asset transactions. These attempts to increase the volume of transactions may not be effective.
Banks may not provide banking services, or may cut off banking services, to businesses that provide digital asset-related services or that accept digital assets as payment, which could dampen liquidity in the market and damage the public perception of digital assets generally or any one digital asset in particular, such as Bitcoin, and their or its utility as a payment system, which could decrease the price of digital assets generally or individually.
In addition, the Cardano blockchain rests on open source software, and accordingly there is the risk that the Token smart contract may contain intentional or unintentional bugs or weaknesses which may negatively affect Tokens or result in the loss or theft of Tokens or the loss of ability to access or control Tokens. In the event of such a software bug or weakness, there may be no remedy and Token holders are not guaranteed any remedy, refund or compensation.
If a private key is lost, destroyed or otherwise compromised and no backup of the private key is accessible, Token holders will not be able to access the blockchain asset associated with the corresponding address, and the Issuer will not be able to restore the private key.
Transactions involving Tokens that have been verified, and thus recorded as a block on the blockchain, generally cannot be undone. Even if the transaction turns out to have been in error, or due to theft of a user’s Tokens, the transaction is not reversible. Consequently, the issuer is unable to replace missing Tokens or seek reimbursement for any erroneous transfer or theft of Tokens.
The Tokens are held by the investor in wallets, a coded access. If the investor loses this access, there is no way to get to the Token. They will be lost. In particular, the Issuer is neither actually nor legally able to regenerate and issue the Tokens. The same risk exists if a third party succeeds in gaining unauthorized access to the wallet. Also, in this case, where a third-party succeeds in removing and transferring the Tokens from the wallet, the Issuer is not able to issue new Tokens to the investor.
Prospective Token holders must seek their own tax advice in the relevant jurisdictions in connection with acquiring Tokens, which may result in adverse tax consequences, including withholding taxes, income taxes and tax reporting requirements.
