Crypto projects are swept up in capital market dynamics the minute they create a token — whether they’re ready or not. Forgd founder @MolidorShane pulls back the curtain on the token launch process, and highlights the key elements that separate a sustainable TGE from a rug pull

@cobie @Forgd_ has a free solution for this! 300+ projects use our software to track their MMs. Next step is to allow founders to publicly disclose details on engagements & share reports on MM trade activity. These should be industry standard disclosures.
