YouBallin will launch the $YBL public sale on November 13, supporting instant receipt of smart contracts.

The innovative SocialFi protocol YouBallin, built on the Solana network, announces that the public pre-sale of its native Token $YBL will officially start at 12:00 AM Beijing time on November 13 (Thursday).

This public offering will fully support the Quick Claim feature, allowing participants to immediately receive tokens after purchase through smart contracts that have completed security audits. YouBallin also becomes the first SocialFi creator platform to implement an instant interactive distribution mechanism.

Creator Economy × Blockchain Transparency: From Participation to Co-creation

YouBallin is centered around the core concept of “making social participation an on-chain asset” and is committed to deeply integrating the creator economy with blockchain transparency.

The platform utilizes an event-driven mechanism to systematically link the interests of fans, creators, and brands, ensuring that every interaction, vote, and support can be verified and quantified on the chain.

On traditional Web2 platforms, creator earnings are constrained by centralized algorithms and advertising models, making it difficult for fan support to translate into direct economic value.

YouBallin disrupts this pattern through a decentralized incentive structure:

• Creators (Talent) can directly receive fan votes, tips, and NFT revenue sharing;
• Each vote by fans is recorded on the chain, becoming a verifiable “cultural co-creation” certificate;
• Brands can conduct activity placements and sponsorships under the DAO framework, achieving higher transparency and efficiency.

“Centralized algorithms mask true creativity.”

$YBL makes value flow transparent - creators can see the source of their income, fans can see their influence, and brands can see the results of their participation.

—— Patrick Heinz, Co-founder and CTO of YouBallin (formerly a core engineer at Filecoin and Syscoin)

$YBL : The core Token driving on-chain social participation, a dual-phase competition model.

$YBL is the core Token of the YouBallin platform, used to drive the platform's dual-phase competition mechanism:

1. Exploration Phase (Phase 1)
2. Experienced creators or star mentors (Legends) select and discover emerging talents (Talent), forming a mentor-student relationship and laying the foundation for subsequent competitions.
3. Voting Phase (Phase 2)
4. Fans use $YBL to vote and tip their favorite Talent, and the smart contract distributes the prize pool earnings in real-time based on the voting results, achieving transparent and fair on-chain revenue sharing.

Core concept: Connecting creators, fans, and brands closely through the $YBL Token to build a decentralized and highly interactive creator ecosystem, making every interaction quantifiable and shareable in value.

Automatic destruction mechanism: 5% of each transaction will be automatically destroyed to maintain long-term scarcity.

$YBL Public offering begins: A new chapter of on-chain instant distribution.

$YBL Token parameters and public offering details:

• Total supply: 1,000,000,000 tokens
• Public offering ratio: 15% (approximately 150 million coins)
• Phase 1 public offering price: $0.0075/Token
• The start time for the first phase of the public offering: 2025/11/13 at 12:00 PM (Beijing Time)
• Payment methods: SOL / USDC / USDT
• Public Offering Unlock: After the completion of 5 rounds of public offerings, TGE will take place in three days. Once TGE is completed, the Token can be claimed. Please note that the Token will not be automatically distributed; users need to manually claim their Tokens without waiting for the lock-up period.
• Total public offering rounds: 5 rounds

All participants can connect their wallets (Phantom, OKX, Backpack, etc.) directly to purchase through the public offering page. The mechanism that does not require waiting for the lock-up period not only significantly enhances transparency and efficiency but also marks YouBallin as one of the first SocialFi platforms to achieve “on-chain instant receipt.”

To incentivize early participants, YouBallin has also launched a limited-time reward event:

A purchase amount between $50 and $5,000 will receive a 3% additional reward; a purchase amount exceeding $5,000 will receive a 5% reward Token. Unlike the lengthy unlocking periods of traditional projects, YouBallin's instant receipt mechanism allows users to participate in staking, voting, tipping, and DAO governance immediately after purchase, becoming the first contributors to the platform's ecosystem.

This public offering marks the official launch of the first liquidity phase of the YouBallin ecosystem. Compared to the locking mechanisms commonly found in traditional SocialFi projects, YouBallin allows users to participate in staking, voting, tipping, and DAO governance immediately after purchase through instant receipt and interaction.

The official announcement has been released:

• Smart Contract Audit Report
• Tokenomics Dashboard
• Latest Whitepaper

Ecosystem structure and incentive design

The YouBallin ecosystem is composed of three main roles: Talent, Fans, and Brands, and achieves automated interaction through smart contracts:

• Talent (Creator/Participant)
• You can receive 80% of the NFT share from the 40% voting pool;
• Receive fan rewards and on-chain revenue distribution.
• Fans
• Use $YBL to vote and decide the 30% prize pool allocation;
• Earn points to exchange for airdrops or DAO governance rights;
• Each vote generates an NFT voting certificate as proof of on-chain participation.
• Brands
• You can use $YBL for event sponsorship and promotion;
• Participate in activity proposals and data analysis through the DAO system;
• Obtain a transparent advertising placement model based on on-chain behavior.

All interactions are completed based on Solana smart contracts, achieving transparent and open fund flows, automatic distribution of profits, and no manual intervention.
