Soft Cap and Hard Cap in Crypto Fundraising
Did you know that soft cap and hard cap are crucial terms in crypto fundraising? Initial coin offerings (ICOs) and token sales often use these targets to manage funds effectively and ensure project success.

■ Soft Cap: This is the minimum amount a project needs to proceed. If the soft cap isn’t reached, the project might be canceled, and investors get refunds.

■ Hard Cap: This is the maximum amount a project will accept to prevent overfunding. Once the hard cap is hit, the project stops accepting further contributions.

For instance, imagine a new decentralized exchange setting a $5 million soft cap and a $15 million hard cap. If only $3 million is raised, the project fails, and funds are returned. But if $15 million is reached, the fundraising ends, and the project moves forward.

Understanding these caps helps investors make informed decisions, supporting projects with a higher chance of success.

Crypto Speak: TPS

In the fast-paced world of cryptocurrencies, speed matters! Transactions Per Second (TPS) measures a blockchain network's ability to process transactions quickly, making it a crucial metric for scalability and efficiency.

For instance, Bitcoin can handle only 3-7 transactions per second due to its Proof of Work consensus mechanism. In contrast, Ethereum processes 15-30 transactions per second using Proof of Stake. Newer blockchain platforms like Ripple boast even higher TPS rates.

Improving TPS is a top priority for developers as it directly impacts network performance, fees, and adoption. Strategies to enhance transaction speeds include optimizing network performance, implementing layer 2 scaling solutions, and exploring new consensus mechanisms. As the crypto space continues to evolve, the race for TPS is on!

Symptoms include forum activity, active conversations about cryptocurrency with friends (which sometimes look like monologues), and minimizing risks when trading.

Do you have these symptoms?)
