The next phase of CoinTerminal’s Open Access vision is here; one that rewards participation and celebrates community trust.

After redefining fairness with refundable sales, no staking, and no pre-sale KYC, CoinTerminal is introducing a monthly $5,000 crypto lottery for users who join any refundable IDO sale.

By removing every traditional barrier to entry, from token gating to private rounds, CoinTerminal continues to build a launchpad where anyone can invest early, safely, and with equal opportunity.

A New Era of Rewards Begins

CoinTerminal is proud to set a new standard for participating in early-stage crypto projects: a monthly $5,000 lottery for every refundable Open Access sale.

We believe investors should feel motivated, excited, and rewarded for supporting new projects. That’s why, in addition to our open-access model with no staking and no token gating, we’re thrilled to announce that every user who participates in our Open Access sale is automatically entered into a monthly $5,000 lottery.

This is more than just a reward. It’s a way to give back to the community and make early-stage investing more fair, inclusive, and worthwhile.

How It Works

To participate in our Open Access sales, users only need to connect their wallet. KYC is no longer required before or during contributions;  it will only be needed when claiming tokens.

Contributions above $5,000 require full KYC with ID and proof of address, while contributions equal to or below $5,000 require only an ID.

Whether you keep your tokens or claim a refund, your entry still counts.

Lottery winners are announced on our official social media channels and listed on our transparency page, where all transactions, including payouts, are verifiable on-chain.

Prize Claim Process: Meet the Team

To claim the prize, winners are required to meet with the CoinTerminal team in person. All winners must consent to being recorded or photographed when claiming their prize. This content may be used in CoinTerminal’s official announcements and promotional materials.

Why We’re Doing This

At CoinTerminal, our foundation is to remove barriers to access. We want investors to participate in rewarding early-stage crypto projects.

Beyond platform functionality, we also focus on the usual challenges: knowledge, user experience, and security. That is why we implemented refunds as part of our sales model.

But we have also realized something important. The drive to participate in something as dynamic and full of potential as early-stage crypto comes from more than just logic. It comes from the feeling of discovering something new and moving toward something meaningful.

And there is nothing more rewarding than winning something without losing anything.

That is why we created the lottery system. Not only to help people feel safe when investing, but also to make them feel truly motivated to take part.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which type of sales make me eligible for the Crypto Lottery?
Only refundable IDO sales qualify for the monthly CoinTerminal Crypto Lottery. To enter automatically, you must contribute 250 USDT or more to a refundable sale. Contributions to non-refundable sales are not eligible for the lottery draw.
How are winners selected?
Winners are randomly selected using Chainlink VRF to ensure full transparency and fairness. You can view all past winners and transaction proofs on our Transparency Page.
What do I need to do if I win?
Winners must meet with the CoinTerminal team in person to claim their prize officially. This helps us maintain the legitimacy and transparency of the campaign.
What happens if a lottery winner doesn’t claim their prize?
If a selected lottery winner does not contact the CoinTerminal team within 7 days, a new winner will be chosen. We want to reward our community for their participation, and a winner’s spot is only valid during this 7-day claiming period. After that, the lottery will be rerun to ensure every participant has a fair chance to win in recognition of the time and effort they put into our IDO sales.

If you’re unable to meet the team or unwilling to be recorded, your prize will be forfeited. These terms are in place to uphold the platform’s integrity and trust.
Do I need to complete KYC to join the lottery?
No. You can participate in IDO sales and enter the $5,000 monthly lottery without completing KYC until you claim your tokens.
