Hi! I'm Uncle Bird. In the blockchain world, the financing model has never stopped innovating. In the ups and downs of the cryptocurrency market for more than ten years, we have witnessed countless innovations and changes. From the birth of Bitcoin, to the opening of the smart contract era by Ethereum, to the outbreak of DeFi, every technological innovation is accompanied by the redistribution of wealth. Now, a new term is causing heated discussions in the crypto circle-IMO (Initial Merger Offering). It is no longer a simple financing tool, but a revolution that redefines the value of blockchain projects. When the advantages of the two projects are perfectly blended and the power of the community is multiplied, a new value creation model is taking shape. This is an opportunity, but also a subversive change. Let us explore together what kind of wealth code is contained in IMO, which is called the "wealth-making machine".

In a traditional context, for a project to obtain financing or attract investor attention, ICO, or Initial Coin Offering, is a very traditional financing method in the blockchain field. Project parties raise funds from global investors by issuing cryptocurrencies or tokens, with investors typically purchasing these tokens using Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and other cryptocurrencies. Unlike the IPO in the stock industry, ICO has a lower threshold, targets global investors, and has a fast fundraising speed, but also carries higher risks due to a lack of strict regulation.

Tokens in an ICO typically represent usage rights or future revenue rights of the project, rather than equity. Although ICOs provide a fast financing avenue for blockchain projects, investors need to be cautious in their choices due to the presence of many fraudulent projects in the market.

In a backdrop of risks and challenges, IMO (Initial Merger Offering) has emerged. IMO, or Initial Merger Offering, is an emerging financing model in the blockchain industry. Unlike ICOs, the core of IMO lies in merging two or more blockchain projects, integrating resources, communities, and technologies to jointly issue new tokens. This approach not only enhances market liquidity but also expands user coverage and promotes technological collaborative innovation.

The success of IMO is built on four core pillars: liquidity, community, technology, and distribution. By merging the trading volume of projects, IMO significantly enhances market liquidity and influence; at the same time, it integrates the user groups of multiple projects to form a stronger and more vibrant interactive community. From a technical perspective, IMO promotes innovation through resource integration, providing stronger technical support for projects; in terms of distribution, IMO further expands market reach through cross-platform and multi-network coverage, achieving more efficient token distribution and value dissemination. These four pillars together build the unique advantages of IMO, leading a new direction in blockchain financing models.

In this wave of IMO, we want to focus today on a groundbreaking project—EARN'M @EARNMRewards, which, as the world's first merger issuance (IMO) project, not only pioneered the path for IMO but also set a new benchmark for the entire industry.

What is EARN'M?

$EARNM is an innovative project aimed at seamlessly bringing Web2 users into the Web3 world. Through its unique ecosystem, including EarnOS and the EARN'M smart wallet, $EARNM creates a whole new set of rules in the blockchain field. It not only solves the complexity of user interactions on-chain but also achieves sustainable development in Web3 by subsidizing gas fees and rewarding user attention.

EarnOS and EARN'M smart wallet

EarnOS and the EARN'M smart wallet are important innovative tools for promoting the popularization of Web3. First, EarnOS is a revolutionary software that can upgrade an ordinary phone into an 'EarnPhone'. By analyzing users' online activities, EarnOS can unlock rewards from various applications, carriers, and device manufacturers, helping users convert time and attention into actual earnings, truly realizing 'time monetization' and injecting new vitality into the digital economy.

Meanwhile, the EARN'M smart wallet, designed specifically for Web3, redefines the blockchain interaction experience. It is not only a tool for storing digital assets but also an incentive platform that can convert users' time and attention into currency. The EARN'M smart wallet simplifies the blockchain operation process, lowering the entry barrier for Web3 and attracting more users to participate, further promoting the development of the decentralized economy.

Unlike projects like Solana phone, Earn'M's DePIN phone has successfully entered the mainstream retail market, being sold through well-known channels such as Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy. This strategy allows it to cover a wider user base, especially off-chain users, providing greater potential and possibilities for the popularization and application of Web3.

The team behind EARN'M has achieved outstanding results, realizing an astonishing 32,481% revenue growth. The platform currently has over 45 million users, who have collectively earned and saved over $350 million through the smart wallets integrated with the $EARNM partner platforms. Every day, $EARNM attracts 75,000 unique active wallets through its core ecosystem EarnOS. This performance has driven the protocol to attract over 13 million users and bring over $5 million in revenue to the protocol. Meanwhile, these activities account for over 5% of the total trading volume on the Polygon network, further highlighting $EARNM's important position and strong development momentum in the blockchain ecosystem.

Why does Web3 need IMO?

In the current blockchain industry, new tokens are born every moment. However, these new tokens often split into multiple communities, weakening collective strength and limiting their ability to operate effectively. The emergence of IMO provides a new solution to this problem. EARN'M is about to collaborate with the well-known blockchain project StormX on IMO, marking an important innovation and breakthrough in the industry. As a leading blockchain project listed on Binance and Upbit, StormX has over $70 million in Web2 and Web3 revenue and has achieved exceptional performance with daily trading volume exceeding $500 million.

Through this cooperation, $EARNM and StormX will fully integrate their respective technologies and resources to jointly build the highest traffic and most influential platforms in the DePIN and commercial rewards fields, further promoting innovation and development in the blockchain ecosystem.

Market Capitalization Comparison

EARN'M will launch with a massive scale of over 13 million on-chain users and 45 million Web2 users, but its fully diluted valuation (FDV) is only $50 million, and the protocol has already generated nearly $6 million in on-chain fees before TGE. Compared to other projects, $EARNM shows extremely attractive investment potential.

From the perspective of market capitalization comparison, $EARNM still has huge upside potential in the DePIN track: compared to $FIL (FileCoin) with a FDV of $13.1 billion, the growth potential is as high as 260 times; compared to $ATH (Aethir) with a FDV of $3.4 billion, the growth space is 68 times; compared to $THETA with a FDV of $2.7 billion, the growth potential is 54 times; compared to $PEAQ with a FDV of $2.45 billion, the growth space is 48 times; compared to $HNT (Helium Mobile) with a FDV of $2.3 billion, the growth potential is 46 times.

At the same time, among the projects with merger narratives in 2024, $EARNM also has significant advantages: compared to $FET (Fetch, Ocean, Singularity) with a merged FDV of $4.7 billion, the growth potential is as high as 95 times; compared to $KAIA (Kakao & Line) with a merged FDV of $1.7 billion, the growth space is 34 times. These data further highlight the huge potential and value of $EARNM in the future market.

Participate in Earn'M and StormX's first IMO staking, where staking during the IMO period can unlock 250% annualized returns.

StormX is a blockchain project listed on Binance and Upbit, operating in the cashback field since early 2017.

With a strong Asian trader community and as a top Web3 cashback platform, they have achieved over $500 million+ in daily trading volume and gained high liquidity from the world's top spot and perpetual contract exchanges.
