What is a PERL and what can I use it for?

Token Sale Information

PERL tokens were sold between 2017 and 2019 in 3 distinct rounds at different stages of the project. The prices were determined the stage of the project and the development of the technology at the time. All prices are $USD.

• Seed Round (2017) - $0.06 This was the very first round to get started on the project and make the first few hires for the Perlin team.

• Strategic Round (2018) - $0.12 After significant traction and the first few code reviews, we raised a strategic round open to stakeholders that would help in the project's long term growth. As such, there was a strict selection criterion for those who bought tokens at this stage.

• Private Round (2018-2019) - $0.20 Finally, the last round was raised in the middle of 2018, which was open to other institutional parties and we also had a strict selection criterion since there was an extremely high demand at this round.
