The Initial Exchange Offering (IEO) of a celebrity coin called PAC Token (PAC) has gained the attention of the crypto community. However, this is a token for a “select few” due to the distribution strategy that has been put in place. It is an IEO where a first-come-first-served basis will not apply, but rather, an electronic ballot system will determine who gets the coin.

What’s more, PAC is backed by a celebrity, and given how past cryptocurrency ventures launched by stars ended in shambles, a lot of fingers are crossed. Will PAC be a huge success and possibly the next big thing? Or will it like others before its time leave investors holding a bag of worthless tokens? Who knows!

What is Pac Token?

PAC Token (PAC) is an ERC-20 token that rides on the popularity of Manny Pacquiao, a Senator in the Philippines, and a professional boxer. The cryptocurrency was launched on September 1, 2019, at “A Concert For Champions” held in Manila, Philippines. These tokens are aimed at bringing the Filipino boxer closer to his fans by giving his sizable followers access to fan-celebrity programs powered by Singapore’s GCOX exchange.

In the same vein, fans can connect with the pro-fighter on social media. The crypto asset can also be used to redeem products such as Pacquiao’s autographed glove or exclusive VIP box seats at boxing matches. It can be donated to Pacquiao to support his cause. On the other hand, England soccer star Michael Owen and Sheikh Khaled bin Zayed al-Nahyan, a member of Abu Dhabi’s ruling family, are reportedly private investors of PAC.

Who is Manny Pacquiao?

Emmanuel Dapidran Pacquiao, popularly known as Manny Pacquiao, is a man of many interests. He is a politician who has been a serving Senator in the Philippines since 2016. Likewise, the 40-year-old is a renowned boxer who has several accolades to his name. According to Wikipedia, he is “one of the greatest professional boxers of all time.”

The Boxing Writers Association of America (BWAA) also named Pacquiao, “Fighter of the Decade 2000”. Forbes, on the other hand, ranked him as the second-highest-paid athlete in the world as of 2015. Despite Pacquiao’s interest in politics and sports, he is now dabbling with blockchain technology, which has led to the launch of his cryptocurrency, Pac Token.

Pac Token IEO Campaign on GCOX Exchange

The Pac Token (PAC) will be distributed in an Initial Exchange Offering (IEO), instead of an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) since it is offered through an exchange. PAC’s IEO has been scheduled to take place on GCOX Sparkle, the IEO platform on GCOX (Global Crypto Offering Exchange).

The IEO will start on November 12, 2019, at 9 pm (GMT+8), to end on November 14, 2019. Three rounds of sales have been slated, and each round will last for three hours. Also, 700,000 PAC tokens will be offered, and each token will cost $0.30 USD.

Token Balloting System to Aid in Acquiring PAC During IEO

The fact that a renowned celebrity backs PAC has earned it much attention, which means there will be more people willing to buy despite the fact that there are just a few tokens to go round. A system has, therefore, been devised to allocate tokens during the campaign. That being the case, it won’t be on a first-come, first-served basis.

Instead, GCOX has chosen to use a Token Balloting system to determine who can acquire PAC during then IEO. According to the exchange, each account on the GCOX Sparkle is limited to one subscription as well as a minimum and maximum subscription amount of $30 and $1,200, respectively. At the completion of the IEO, an electronic ballot will allocate tokens to individuals.

However, these tokens will be credited to the wallets of participants on November 19, 2019, by 6 pm (GMT+8). Deducing from this logic, not very many people are going to get their hands on this token, given the policy that has been put in place. Nonetheless, it may increase the token’s demand from Pacquiao’s fan base and potentially impact on its price positively.

About GCOX

GCOX is a decentralized exchange owned by GCOX Group, a group of companies in different industries, including entertainment, finance, and technology. The exchange was founded in 2017, and it became the first cryptocurrency exchange to collaborate with LaLiga, a Spanish football division.

GCOX is focused on promoting celebrities and brands using its ACCLAIM blockchain. Stars can develop their popularity, raise funds, etc. using GCOX. As such, it does not come as a surprise that this exchange is chosen for the PAC IEO.

However, PAC will be the first celebrity token IEO to launch on the GCOX Sparkle platform. Other celebrities like American singer Jason Derulo, Tennis ace Caroline Wozniacki, and English soccer star Michael Owen are rumored to plan to launch their crypto tokens on GCOX soon.

Conclusion

PAC Token is the first celebrity coin to go on sale on the GCOX cryptocurrency exchange. It is backed by Manny Pacquiao, a politician, and boxer who has garnered a sizable number of fans that can increase PAC’s demand. And despite the failed attempts of other crypto ventures by celebrities, PAC Token is likely to come out strong.
