The long-delayed Big Eyes crypto launch, which began its cat-themed meme coin presale in August 2022, has announced it will go live on Uniswap on June 15th at 4pm UTC+1.
Update – $BIG was listed late at 11pm UTC+1, and at a lower listing price than expected – $0.000074 instead of $0.0006. Some investors also reported issues with claiming their tokens on the Big Eyes website.
Beware of fake tokens, some copycats have been listed with a 90% sell tax or no liquidity.
Update II – Big Eyes token crashed 99% from its stated listing price. Read our follow up post here.
Big Eyes Launch Restrictions
Holders are required to purchase a $100 ticket to be able to claim and sell their $BIG tokens on Uniswap at the listing time, if they wish to do so. Without buying that early access ticket, presale buyers can’t claim their $BIG tokens until 10pm UTC+1.
That led some investors to complain on Twitter that at that point the $BIG price may be below its listing price – many new token ICOs are volatile and experience a ‘pump and dump’ chart pattern. Traders often want to sell on the initial price spike to buy back lower, and take partial profit on their position.
