WHAT IS NOT.MARKET
Structured pre-markets for upcoming crypto projects.
not.market gives traders a way to take early positions before a token is widely available, and gives projects an early signal of real demand.
The people trading your market early are often your most aligned users.
PRE-MARKETS, EXPLAINED
A way to act on conviction before launch
A pre-market lets people take positions before a token is widely available. Instead of waiting for TGE, early conviction shows up as price, participation, and liquidity.
Before TGE
Participation starts before broad public token access.
Price discovery
Demand forms in the market instead of only in social discussion.
Stronger signals
Projects and traders can see where conviction is real.
WHAT IT ENABLES
Useful for both sides of the market
For traders
- Early positions before TGE
- Public price discovery
- Less reliance on social noise
- Simpler than leverage-first alternatives
For projects
- Earlier demand signals
- Visibility into conviction
- Stronger retail alignment
- Clearer path into launch
This is not just about trading. It makes the pre-token phase legible.

Why not.market is different
Early speculation already happens. not.market makes it more structured and transparent.
| not.market | Perps | OTC / IOUs | Social | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Type | Spot | Leveraged | Off-chain | Off-chain |
| Access | Open | Complex | Limited | Noisy |
| Transparency | On-chain | Partial | None | None |
| Outcome | Real exposure | PnL only | Delivery risk | No ownership |
We don't replace perps — we complement them.
Perps are for sentiment. Spot is for settlement.
