Phases & allowlists
Who mints, in what order, and what "guaranteed" actually means here.
The three mechanics
Public only. One open phase. Anyone mints, first come first served, until sellout or you close it.
Three phase. GTD (guaranteed) opens first, then FCFS, then public. Each phase has its own price, wallet limit and window.
Allowlist only. One gated phase for a fixed list of wallets, then the mint is done.
GTD means guaranteed, on-chain
On most launchpads a "guaranteed" spot quietly stops being guaranteed the moment supply runs out. DengPad backstops GTD on-chain: guaranteed supply is reserved so every GTD allocation can be claimed for the full length of the GTD phase.
Anything GTD wallets don't claim spills forward automatically: unclaimed GTD supply becomes FCFS supply, and unclaimed FCFS supply becomes public supply. Nothing gets stranded.
Allowlists
You provide the wallets per phase in the wizard, pasted in or uploaded as CSV. Rows are validated and deduplicated client-side before import, and you can update lists from your dashboard until the relevant phase opens.
Gated mints use signed vouchers: when an allowlisted wallet mints, the API issues a short-lived signature the contract verifies. No merkle proofs for minters to fumble.
Instant vs delayed reveal
Instant shows final artwork from the first mint — your metadata must be live before launch.
Delayed shows a pre-reveal image during the mint; you trigger the reveal from your dashboard after mint end plus your chosen delay. Optionally commit a provenance hash before mint so collectors can verify the artwork order was never reshuffled.
Escrow and the 72-hour lockup
Mint proceeds go to an on-chain escrow, not straight to the creator. After the mint closes there's a 72-hour lockup during which the platform can intervene and refund collectors if a launch went wrong. It applies to every collection equally — it's the reason collectors trust the mint button.
