Have you ever wondered about the criteria launchpads use to select their projects? It could involve various factors, such as:

1. The project offering certain benefits to the launchpad
2. Existing connections between the project and the launchpad
3. The launchpad seeking out projects primarily to generate fees
4. The launchpad aiming to meet community demand by listing projects with minimal due diligence

These issues have become widespread in our sector since the ICO days, presenting common challenges for launchpads.&#x20;

Wagmipad aims to address these issues by adopting an innovative approach to how projects are listed.
