About Fogo (Pre-Market) (FOGO)

What is Fogo (FOGO), really?

FOGO is the native crypto token of Fogo, an SVM-based Layer 1 blockchain built around the Firedancer client. The chain is optimized for trading and DeFi workloads where latency and execution speed actually matter.Think less “do-everything chain” and more purpose-built infrastructure for fast markets.

Why does Firedancer keep coming up?

Fogo is designed directly around Firedancer, a high-performance validator client originally developed for Solana. Speed isn’t an add-on here—it’s the foundation.That focus gives Fogo its edge, but it also means the network’s performance is tightly tied to one core client.

How big is the FOGO supply?

FOGO has a fixed total supply of 10,000,000,000 tokens. There’s no dynamic minting tied to the presale or the current pre-market phase, which simplifies the supply story a lot.Only a small slice is introduced early, so initial circulation stays relatively tight—at least compared to launches that flood the market on day one.

How much of that supply is being sold right now?

The presale covers 200,000,000 FOGO, or 2% of total supply. That allocation is sold directly to participants and unlocks in full later.There’s no cliff, no slow drip, no clever math here. Buy in, wait for unlock, receive the tokens. Clean and predictable.

So how does the presale actually work?

The sale runs on December 17, 2025, starting at 3:00 PM UTC, and lasts 8 hours, split into four two-hour phases. It’s fixed-price and first-come, first-served.The only thing that changes between phases is the per-wallet cap. Same token, same price—just wider access as the clock moves on.

What’s the price and what does it imply?

FOGO is priced at $0.10, payable in USDC only. At full supply, that puts the project at a $1B fully diluted valuation.Like it or not, that number becomes the mental anchor once usd or usdt spot pairs appear.

When do presale tokens unlock?

Presale tokens unlock 100% on January 13, 2026 at 2:00 PM UTC. No staging, no slow drip.That moment is when pre-market positioning turns into real circulating supply.

Who’s allowed to participate?

Anyone holding USDC on Fogo mainnet can join, with a 100 USDC minimum. But access isn’t global.Residents of the US, UK, Canada, and sanctioned jurisdictions are excluded. Geography still matters in crypto.

Is FOGO trading yet, or not quite?

FOGO is still pre-market only. Any early exposure happens before full spot listings and settlement.That’s worth slowing down on—pre-market prices are thin and noisy. Real price discovery usually starts once FOGO/usdt or FOGO/usd markets go live after unlock.
