Accredited investors meet standards defined by the US Securities and Exchange Commission which allow them to invest in certain private securities offerings. Most startups raising money do so from accredited investors only.

The SEC web site contains the full definition. In general, any of the following would meet the standard:

• Individuals with annual income over $200K (individually) or $300K (with spouse) over the last 2 years and an expectation of the same this year
• Individuals with net assets over $1 million, excluding the primary residence (unless more is owed on the mortgage than the residence is worth)
  
• An institution with over $5 million in assets, such as a venture fund or a trust
  
• An entity made up entirely of accredited investors

In order to fulfill the accreditation requirements with your crypto-asset holdings, you can either

• Upload a screenshot from a credible cryptocurrency exchange or wallet showing holdings & valuations worth over $1MM USD. The screenshot should include the date and evidence tying the investor to the account (e.g. your name or the investing entity's name), or
• Upload a message cryptographically signed using the private key of your wallet or wallets, proving that you own assets worth over $1MM USD.

What is CELO staking? 

CELO is the native utility token for the Celo blockchain. Instead of using miners and a Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism to verify transactions and maintain the integrity of the Celo blockchain, Celo uses a Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism. This means that network participants are able to stake a certain amount of CELO for the right to honestly verify transactions on Celo and receive rewards for doing so. Additionally, CELO owners are able to lock their tokens and vote for these network participants, known as validators. CELO holders that lock and vote their tokens receive additional CELO as a reward for voting for honest and active validators on the network. CoinList manages the locking and voting for users who deposit CELO into their CoinList wallet so they can passively receive additional CELO. 

When will I receive my CELO staking rewards?

Once per month, CoinList will distribute rewards to users pro-rata of their average holdings over the month. We will notify you via email once your rewards have been distributed into your CoinList wallet. 

Will my staking rewards be automatically re-staked? Are CELO rewards compounding? 

Yes, your Celo staking rewards are automatically re-staked and earning additional rewards unless you withdraw or trade them. Celo rewards are compounding daily, but are only distributed once per month. 

How do I earn staking rewards on CoinList?

When you deposit or purchase a supported Proof-of-Stake (PoS) asset on CoinList, you may be eligible to receive staking rewards by having that asset in your CoinList wallet. 

Once you deposit an eligible asset into your CoinList wallet, you are automatically opted into staking rewards. There is no action on your end required to participate, but you may opt-out of staking rewards on CoinList at any time by sending us an email at team@coinlist.co 

How much are CELO staking rewards?

The Celo network currently has an estimated 6% annual rate of return for users that are locking and voting their CELO. Please note that this estimated 6% is subject to change and does not take into the 10% CoinList commission fee. 

Do I have to buy my CELO on CoinList to earn staking rewards?

No. Users who have procured their CELO from other means or trading venues are able to deposit their CELO into their CoinList wallet and start passively receiving staking rewards. 

Who is eligible to earn CELO staking rewards on CoinList?

Anyone who is able to open up a wallet on CoinList and deposits CELO into their account is eligible for CELO staking rewards on CoinList. CoinList wallets are not available in all jurisdictions, please visit this page to see our list of approved jurisdictions. 

When will I be able to withdraw my CELO staking rewards?

Once your CELO staking rewards are distributed into your CoinList wallet, you will be able to withdraw and/or trade your CELO. Typically withdrawals will be instant. 

However, please note that if you hold a large amount of CELO on CoinList, we may require an additional 3 days to withdraw your funds in order to unlocking CELO from the Celo network. Unlocking requires 3 days, a timeframe set by the Celo network. 

If you wish to ensure instant withdrawals for your Celo at all times, please opt-out of Celo staking by contacting team@coinlist.co

What are CELO staking rewards paid out in?

CELO staking rewards on CoinList are paid out in CELO. This means you will passively accrue additional CELO by keeping your CELO in your CoinList wallet. 

How to opt-out of CELO staking rewards

You will automatically receive staking rewards by holding CELO in your CoinList Wallet. If you would like to opt-out of CELO staking rewards, please email team@coinlist.co.

Additional Terms & Conditions

You agree to be bound by these Rules and the CoinList Terms and Conditions, found here, by participating in CoinList Rewards. CoinList Markets does not guarantee any payment pursuant to the Rules. CoinList Markets reserves the right to change the Rules or Rewards Program at any time at any time in its sole and absolute discretion. CoinList Markets also reserves the right to render a user ineligible for participation in this referral program should it determine, in its sole discretion, that the user has engaged in any fraudulent, deceptive, abusive or unlawful behavior, including but not limited to Prohibited Use or Prohibited Businesses as those terms are defined in the Terms of Service, found here.

Some crypto networks, like Bitcoin, use a Proof of Work (PoW) consensus mechanism where miners validate transactions by solving difficult math problems, other networks use a consensus mechanism known as Proof of Stake (PoS). In PoW networks, miners maintain consensus and secure the network, while PoS networks rely on participants known as validators to perform the same work. 

Validators confirm transactions and maintain consensus on the network to maintain the integrity and security of the blockchain they’re validating. To ensure that validators are acting honestly, PoS networks require validators to stake a minimum amount of tokens native to that network. This stake can be aggregated from many users, not just the validator, and essentially acts as a security deposit – if a validator is confirming invalid transactions, then validators will lose part of the capital they staked. As compensation for their work and for the opportunity cost of capital, validators earn network rewards for their work. These rewards can be shared among their community for users who have provided additional stake. 

Most PoS networks have different and unique consensus mechanisms and economic models. We recommend conducting your own research on each network before participating in any staking program. 

You will automatically receive staking rewards by holding CELO in your CoinList Wallet. 

If you would like to opt-out of CELO staking rewards, please email team@coinlist.co.

A "foreign bank" is any bank organized under non-U.S. law or an agency, branch or office of a bank located outside the U.S. The term does not include an agent, agency, branch or office within the U.S. of a bank organized under foreign law.

A “private banking” account is an account (or any combination of accounts) that requires a minimum aggregate deposit of $1,000,000, is established for one or more individuals and is assigned to or administered or managed by, in whole or in part, an officer, employee or agent of a financial institution acting as a liaison between the financial institution and the direct or beneficial owner of the account.

We use a number of tools to confirm your identity and ensure your eligibility for the CoinList services. This process can take between 0-3 business days for individuals, and for entities and trusts this can take up a week. 

You may be restricted from certain activities on the CoinList platform until you have completed identity verification.

When you start the investment flow, we show you an estimated conversion rate from crypto. This price is not final and may not reflect the actual investment amount. Your final price is determined once the conversion is executed. For example, if you wait 30 minutes to send BTC after completing the investment flow, the price may have gone up or down in that time. Once we receive your crypto transaction, we will send an email confirmation specifying the price at which we converted your crypto into USD or USDC, the fees charged by CoinList Markets LLC as well as your final investment amount.

No - when you invest in a Token Sale on CoinList with crypto, we will automatically convert your crypto into the currencies that are being accepted by the issuer. Once you have transferred the crypto, you do not need to perform any further actions and will receive an email confirmation. If you do not wish to have CoinList Markets LLC convert your crypto you may convert your cryptocurrency elsewhere and use such converted currency instead.

If you invested with USD or USDC, your investment amount will be the same amount as your investment less any applicable wire or network fees (not charged by CoinList).

If you invested with BTC or ETH, your final price and investment amount is determined once the conversion is executed and you receive a confirmation. Your final investment amount will be the converted amount of USD or USDC less the applicable fees. 

Your investment is not confirmed until after the payment is received and you complete all the required documentation.

Enabling and Disabling One-Click Trading

CoinList Pro allows you to choose between submitting orders with a single-click or receiving a notification containing your order details which must be affirmed in order to submit the order into the market.

To manage your order notification settings, click on the dropdown menu in the upper right of the platform, select Account Settings, choose My Preferences, and then enable or disable notifications by using the control next to “Display confirmation dialog before placing trades.”

Note: disabling order notifications will result in orders being submitted immediately into the market upon placement. Please exercise caution when utilizing one-click trading.

Manage Order Status Updates

CoinList Pro allows you to control the amount of order status update messages that you receive.

To manage your order status updates, click on the dropdown menu in the upper right of the platform, select Account Settings, choose My Preferences, and then enable or disable notifications by using the control next to “Display notifications for order status updates.”

Market orders refer to trades that are purchasing a given asset at the current market price (i.e. spot price) for the asset. You can place a market order by following these instructions: 

• Choose the trading pair - click on the trading pair you want to use to trade 
• Choose the order type - click on the order type you would like to use
• Enter the trade size - define either the amount of crypto or the US dollar notional value to determine the size of the trade
• Specify your order price - if using a price order, such as a limit or stop, enter the price at which you want to place the order. If using a market order, no price needs to be entered.
• Choose to buy or sell - click on the buy or sell button to submit the order

Trades can be submitted with different conditions known as order types. These order types allow traders to specify criteria related to how and at what price a trade may be placed.

CoinList Pro supports several order types, including:

Market

• Description - market orders execute at the next available price in the market. No price is specified with the order, and the order is filled at the current market price
• Use case - traders use market orders to enter or exit a trade quickly when execution certainty is a higher priority than price execution
• Traders should be cautious when using market orders in thinly traded markets where the bid-ask spread may be wide and liquidity may represent an issue for price slippage, causing orders to get filled for a higher price if they are buying, or a lower price if they are selling

A market order is the most straightforward type of order. It executes immediately against the best price available. As long as there are willing buyers and sellers, market orders are filled.

A market sell will match the best available bids on the order book, and a market buy will match against the best available asks on the order book.

Market orders are often used when you need to prioritize speed over price, for example, when taking advantage of a fast-moving bull run. You'll use this order when you need your trade to execute immediately at the current best price available.

Limit

• Description - limit orders are used to specify a price limit at which the order must be executed. Limit orders to buy are placed below the market and limit orders to sell are placed above the market. Since the limit order must be filled at the designated price or better, traders use limits to define the worst price at which the order will be executed, prioritizing price execution over execution certainty
• Use case - traders use limit orders to enter positions, setting orders at points that act as profit targets, as well as to exit positions. Limits can be placed in advance once a position has been entered, and the order will automatically execute once the price conditions have been met
• Since a limit order must be executed at the specified price or better, the market may touch the limit price several times with the trader not receiving a fill, depending on where the trader’s order is in order book queue
• The market must trade completely through a limit order’s price in order for a trader to earn a complete fill and partial fills can occur if only part of the order is executed
• A limit order remains in the order book until the order is either executed, canceled, or expires

A limit order allows you to specify a price and amount you would like to buy or sell at.

Example: If the current market price is 8000 and you want to buy lower than that at 7900, then you would place a limit buy order at 7900. If the market reaches 7900 and a seller’s ask matches with your bid, your limit order will be executed at 7900.

Stop Market

• Description - stop market orders execute at the next available price once the designated trigger price crosses the stop price. Stop orders to buy are placed above the market and stop orders to sell are placed below the market. 
• Use case - traders typically use stop orders in an attempt to limit losses if the market moves against a market position or to protect profits on an open position, but the order type can also be used to initiate a new position. Once the stop price is touched, the stop order is said to have been "elected," will be treated as a market order, and will be filled at the best possible price
• Stop orders do not guarantee execution at the stop order price, and price slippage may occur in certain market conditions. Unlike limit orders, stops are not required to be executed at the designated price or better

CoinList Pro supports two kinds of triggerable orders: stops and take profits. These are orders that aren't added to the order book until some price threshold is reached.

Stop Market / Limit

A stop market or stop limit order is an instruction to add a market or limit order to the book once the trigger price has crossed the stop price. By default, the stop price indicates the mark price at which to trigger the stop, but stops may also be configured to trigger on last trade price or underlying index price rather than mark price.

Stop orders rest in the matching engine until the trigger price goes 'outside' the stop price:

• buy - the stop triggers when the trigger price is greater than or equal to the stop price
• sell - the stop triggers when the trigger price is less than or equal to the stop price

Upon triggering, the stop order is converted to a regular market or limit order. This order becomes available for execution in the first auction following the one which triggered the stop. The order will incur the standard fees, as any order inserted at the time of the trigger would.

While it is untriggered, a stop order is invisible to other traders, and is not included in the book. Once it is triggered it becomes visible (as it is now a normal market or limit order).

Note that the time priority of the order is based on the time at which it was triggered, rather than the time at which the stop was last updated.

Trailing Stop

A stop market order may be specified with either a fixed or percentage trail value, which causes the stop price to be pegged to no more than a fixed offset away from the order's trigger price (which is a mark price, index price, or last trade price, depending on the order's specified trigger type).

When the trigger price moves away from the current stop price, the stop price is moved as well, thus the stop price trails the trigger price. (Note however that when the trigger price moves towards the current stop price, the stop price doesn't change, otherwise the order would never trigger.)

For example, on a stop market sell order, setting a $-100 trail value will have the effect of setting the stop price $100 below the trigger price. If the trigger price is $1000 at the time the order is entered, the stop price will be $900. If the trigger price moves up to $1050, the stop price will be updated to $950. If the trigger price then moves down to $990, the stop price will stay at $950, and if the trigger price keeps moving all the way down to $950, the order will be triggered, and will convert to a normal market sell.

In other words, the stop price of a stop sell order will move up along with the market, but is kept constant as the price falls towards the stop (and vice-versa for a stop buy order).

Take Profit Market

• Description - take profit, or market-if-touched, orders execute at the next available price once the designated trigger price (by default, the mark price) crosses the stop price
• Use case - traders typically use take profit orders to exit positions once a price level has been reached although the order type can be used to initiate a position as well. Since the order executes at market once the market trades at the order price, execution certainty is prioritized over price execution
• Take profit orders do not guarantee execution at the order price, and price slippage may occur in certain market conditions. Unlike limit orders, take profits are not required to be executed at the designated price or better
• A take profit order will not be executed if the trigger price fails to touch the take profit specified price

A take market or take limit order is the same as a stop market or limit order, but with the trigger directions reversed. That is:

• buy - the take profit order triggers when the trigger price is less than or equal to the stop price
• sell - the take profit order triggers when the trigger price is greater than or equal to the stop price

Post-Only Order 

The post-only order is a limit order that ensures the order will be added to the book and not match with a pre-existing order. If your order matches with a pre-existing order, your post-only limit order will be rejected.

The Post-Only Order ensures that you will receive the maker rebate, and not pay a taker fee. It prevents placing a limit buy order that matches against the sell side of the order book (and vice versa, for sell orders), which would normally result in taker fees.

If you participated in Filecoin's 2017 offering, your FIL will vest linearly on a block-by-block basis starting at mainnet launch, for the duration of your vesting period. For example, if your vesting schedule is 12 months, you will receive FIL on a block-by-block basis and each day receive approximately 1/365 of your FIL .

As soon as tokens vest, you are able to withdraw or trade them. 

More on FIL vesting. 

CoinList expects to support FIL trading within hours of mainnet launch.

In order to self-custody your FIL, please go to coinlist.co/filecoin and edit your custodian option under 'Distributing To'. You'll want to select Self-Custody. The easiest way to self-custody is to use the 'Glif and Ledger' option, which requires a Ledger hardware wallet. You'll see instructions on setting this up after selecting that option.

Detailed instructions on setting up your Ledger to receive FIL are here: https://paper.dropbox.com/doc/Self-Custodied-SAFT-Guide--A72a5~JLiLiNKPhdLQP3ZbNhAg-dHxZu59oAeSw03RrRpCrd

As of September 17, 2020, we expect Filecoin to launch in the next few weeks. Protocol Labs maintains a public roadmap, which is the best place to look for accurate information.

This only applies to residents of:

• Alaska
• Connecticut
• Hawaii
• Minnesota
• Nevada
• New York
• Puerto Rico
• Texas
• Virgin Islands, U.S.
• Washington 

If you live in one of the above states or territories where we are yet to finalize our licensure, we have provided an alternate solution for CoinList wallets. If you chose to use CoinList Wallets, you will be provided a sub-account at Gemini. Once you complete the additional verification, your holdings will be accessible via your CoinList account. Upon mainnet launch, you will be able to access your FIL holdings via CoinList in the same capacity as all other users.

This requires some additional verification with Gemini - if you do not have an existing Gemini account, you'll need to create one and go through their KYC process. If you have a Gemini account, you'll just need to accept an invitation from us.

We'll be reaching out to impacted users via email.
