Momentum Finance, the leading decentralized exchange on Sui, has announced plans for its upcoming MMT Community Offering on Buidlpad. Summary MomentumFinance will raise $4.5 million via its MMT community token sale on Buidlpad.. Earlycampaignparticipants gain Tier 1 access at a lower valuation and higher contribution limits. The sale cements Momentum’s community-first approach, reinforcing its status as Sui’s leading DEX with over $550M in TVL. The token sale is designed to give real users, not venture capital firms, the first opportunity to own a stake in Sui’s fastest-growing decentralized finance ecosystem. According to an Oct. 10 announcement from Momentum Finance, the MMT Community Offering is structured as a fair launch, targeting a $4.5 million raise and allowing real users to participate directly. Buidlpad-purchased tokens will be fully unlocked at the Token Generation Event, removing the lock-ups often seen in early-stage token sales and granting instant ownership. A community-first token sale Momentum’s MMT sale marks a departure from the typical fundraising model, which favors institutional investors. Instead, the project is giving early access to its most active community members — including traders, LPs, and participants in Momentum’s previous HODL and WAGMI campaigns. The sale will run in two tiers. Tier 1, which offers lower pricing and higher contribution limits, and values Momentum at $250 million FDV, is reserved for eligible HODL and WAGMI campaign participants. Tier 2, open to the general public, comes at a $350 million FDV, still designed to ensure broad community participation.

Those who staked at least $3,000 in eligible Momentum pools by Oct. 25 qualify for Tier 1 benefits, while general KYC-verified users can join Tier 2 between Oct. 22–25. The contribution window will open on Oct. 27 and close on Oct. 28, with allocations finalized by Oct. 31. At launch, all tokens from this sale will be unlocked, ensuring an open distribution. Additionally, Momentum and Buidlpad will employ anti-Sybil measures to stop fraudulent or duplicate accounts from taking part, ensuring equity for legitimate community members. Building the next phase of Sui DeFi Momentum’s partnership with Buidlpad builds on the success of their earlier HODL Yield Campaign, which brought thousands of users into the Sui ecosystem and helped push the DEX’s total value locked above $550 million. More than $270 million of this was raised directly from campaign participants, demonstrating the power of community-led development. Beyond liquidity, Momentum is emerging as one of Sui’s central DeFi pillars. It has established itself as a central liquidity hub thanks to its hybrid ve(3,3) token model, launchpad capabilities, and concentrated liquidity market-making. Backed by Coinbase Ventures, Circle Ventures, Jump Crypto, OKX Ventures, and the Sui Foundation, Momentum now ranks as the #1 DEX on Sui and #3 globally by trading volume, just behind PancakeSwap (CAKE) and Uniswap (UNI). Momentum’s team described the offering as a milestone toward a more accessible and equitable DeFi future — one where the community directly benefits from the value it helps create. “This isn’t just a token sale,” the team said. “It’s a chance for users to own a real piece of what they helped build.” Read more: Citadel Wallet unveils Suiball, a hardware wallet built for the Sui blockchain
