#2025GateYearEndSummary
KDK is the Kodiak token from Gate Launchpad's fifth project, with a public subscription price of 1 KDK = 0.35 USDT/GUSD, totaling 3,000,000 tokens, issued by the Gate.io platform. After subscription, all tokens will be 100% unlocked and tradable on the first day of listing.
First, from the perspective of issuance pricing mechanism. Launchpad project issuance prices are usually negotiated and determined by the trading platform and the project team, reflecting a comprehensive judgment of market enthusiasm, project fundamentals, and expected trading performance. However, this price does not directly equate to the trading price on the first day of listing. In most cases, if the market sentiment is positive and retail investors are highly enthusiastic, a premium may appear on the first day; if market volatility is high or subscription interest is insufficient, the opening price may be below the issuance price. In recent years, several Launchpad projects have experienced such scenarios.
Second, special attention should be paid to the 100% unlock mechanism. Compared to phased releases and lock-up mechanisms, full unlocking means eliminating selling pressure mitigation mechanisms, resulting in all supply being released immediately upon listing. Theoretically, this increases the initial selling pressure risk unless there is strong enough buying demand to absorb the circulating supply. Under such high supply conditions, if market participants do not recognize the project sufficiently, the short-term price may fluctuate downward, even below the issuance price.
Third, from the perspective of market sentiment and capital flow, Gate Launchpad projects have always attracted a dedicated community. This time, KDK also drew subscription participation in both USDT and GUSD, which positively impacts liquidity and broadens the user base. However, the overall market volatility remains high, and the sentiment of Bitcoin and mainstream assets is still unstable. These macro factors will directly influence KDK’s listing price.
Based on the above factors, a rough forecast framework can be outlined as follows:
* 📌 First-day short-term performance: If market sentiment is positive and trading volume is active, the opening price may be slightly above the issuance price (+5%~+30% is a common range) — provided that buy orders outweigh sell pressure.
* 📉 It may also open lower: If market volatility is high and risk-averse sentiment rises, the 100% unlock could cause effective initial sell pressure, leading to an opening price below 0.35 USDT.
* 🧠 Mid-term trend (1-4 weeks): Will mainly depend on the actual liquidity, trading volume, and ecosystem usage after the project’s listing.
Therefore, investors can be cautiously optimistic in the short term, but the medium to long term will depend on the market’s real absorption capacity and dynamic conditions.
