Space Official Response

Jeni said that the Space project team finally responded to community questions, and the content is highly consistent with his previous private communications. The main points include:

  • The project team is still conducting a full calculation of all refund data.
  • Planning to launch a decentralized DApp, allowing users to claim refunds autonomously.
  • For users who opt not to request refunds, additional airdrops will be provided as compensation.
  • The team will prioritize launching the Beta version of the Space platform, expected to go live mid-next week.

Jeni urges the project team to publish detailed refund plans as soon as possible, including specific timelines, refund ratios, and other details, to give all participants a relatively satisfactory conclusion.

Background of the Incident

Space is a leverage prediction market platform built on the Solana blockchain, claiming to be the “first project supporting 10x leverage.” Its public offering phase originally set a soft cap of $2.5 million, but in reality, over $20 million was attracted, far exceeding expectations. The project team ultimately allocated about $14 million worth of tokens and promised to refund some of the excess funds. However, this has sparked significant controversy:

  • Some users have not received refunds to this day or question the transparency of the refund process.
  • Around January 21, the project team refunded about $7.3 million and publicly shared wallet addresses for transparency, but the community remains dissatisfied with uneven refunds and large refunds sent to new addresses (suspected internal operations).
  • There are accusations that the project team redefined the $2.5 million as a “soft cap” rather than a hard commitment, allegedly violating initial rules and forcibly retaining oversubscribed funds.
  • Investment firms like Morningstar Ventures publicly demanded at least 50% of the public funds be refunded and emphasized prioritizing community interests.

Additionally, some analyses point out that the Space team has connections with the previous project UFO Gaming, whose token plummeted nearly 99%, further deepening community trust concerns. Currently, the platform has not launched a formal product and remains in the preheating stage.
