DMM was launching its first token sale

However, the platform further notified that the people scammed during the token sale were sent the respective DMG amount which they should have got.

The blockchain-based DeFi money market (DMM) is backed by real assets. It is built on the Ethereum blockchain. That is a bridge between the Decentralized Finance (DeFi) platform and profit-making real-world assets.  In order to gather off-chain data, the DMM utilizes Chainlink oracles.

Yesterday, the DMM foundation announced that the platform is organizing its first public sale of the DMG tokens. That will be used to supervise and direct the DeFi Money Market (DMM) DAO. The sale was open from June 22, 2020, till July 22, 2020, or until all available tokens have been sold.

The sale was launched as Initial DEX Offering (IDO)

Moreover, the public sale was introduced as an Initial DEX Offering (IDO). In order to allow a wide and permissionless access for anybody with only an Ethereum address and a web connection.

The platform further revealed that after digging through on-chain transactions to find the affected people, the platform hit a total of $ 40k worth of DMGs. That was affected by an exchange rate of $ 0.40 per DMG.

Besides this, the platform finds that users pay interest in DMM and DMG protocol.
