Bengaluru, India, March 20th, 2025, Chainwire
Shardeum, the community-oriented Layer 1 focused on autoscaling, announced its public token sale in partnership with Tokensoft, a leading technology platform for token launches. The token sale will run from March 19 until April 14, 2025, providing users early access to SHM tokens before mainnet.
The token sale marks a major step in Shardeum’s journey towards mainnet, further reinforcing its commitment to decentralization, scalability, and accessibility in blockchain. With over 81 million transactions processed, 170,000+ public validators, and a global community of over 1.4 million, Shardeum has demonstrated strong momentum ahead of its Mainnet launch. The sale ensures early supporters can participate in the network’s growth while benefiting from exclusive early access to SHM tokens.
Srini Parthasarathy, CTO of Shardeum, states, “Our community has supported us tremendously over the past year, and we are so excited to provide them with another opportunity to participate in the next phase of our journey, securing the network, and shaping Shardeum’s future.
