Momentum Finance launches fair community offering on Buidlpad
Momentum Finance, the largest decentralized exchange (DEX) on the Sui Network, has revealed details of its upcoming MMT Community Offering on Buidlpad, designed to give everyday users, not venture capitalists, a first stake in Sui’s fastest-growing DeFi ecosystem.

According to the October 10 announcement, the fair launch targets a $4.5 million raise, ensuring that participation is open to verified community members. Unlike typical early-stage token sales, tokens purchased through Buidlpad will be fully unlocked at the Token Generation Event (TGE), granting participants immediate ownership.
A community-driven sale structure
Momentum’s MMT sale sets itself apart by prioritizing active community contributors over institutional investors. The sale will take place in two distinct tiers. Tier 1, which is reserved for Momentum’s most engaged users, including those in the HODL and WAGMI campaigns. It offers lower pricing and higher contribution limits, valuing Momentum at a $250 million FDV. Tier 2, open to the public at a $350 million FDV, maintains inclusivity and fair participation.
Participants can contribute using SUI, USDC (Sui Network), or BNB (BNB Chain). Those with at least $3,000 staked in eligible Momentum pools by October 25 qualify for Tier 1 benefits. KYC-verified users can access Tier 2 between October 22–25, with the contribution window open from October 27–28. Allocations will be finalized by October 31.
To ensure fairness, Momentum and Buidlpad will deploy anti-Sybil protections to block duplicate or fraudulent accounts.
Strengthening Sui’s DeFi ecosystem
The MMT sale follows the success of Momentum’s HODL Yield Campaign, which attracted thousands of users and drove the DEX’s total value locked (TVL) above $550 million, with over $270 million raised from community participants.
Momentum has evolved into a core liquidity hub within the Sui DeFi ecosystem through its hybrid ve(3,3) model, launchpad services, and concentrated liquidity market-making. The project’s backers include Coinbase Ventures, Circle Ventures, Jump Crypto, OKX Ventures, and the Sui Foundation.
Currently, Momentum ranks as the #1 DEX on Sui and #3 globally by trading volume, behind PancakeSwap and Uniswap.
