Hello ICP Community, Builders & Entrepreneurs!
I’m Marlon Hank (@hankolious on X), and today, I’m both thrilled & nervous to finally introduce myself as the face behind Quokka!
This moment has been a long time coming. For the past year, I’ve been quietly building this incredible community with a clear vision: to create the fairest launch in history. It’s a vision born out of frustration with how things have been done in the crypto space.
Why have we started to Build a Fair Launchpad?
We’ve all seen how launches on decentralized exchanges (DEXes) often play out:
- Unfair Practices: Insiders and bots buy first, leaving real investors at a disadvantage.
- Rugpulls Everywhere: A staggering 95% of launches end up as scams or failures.
- Backward Approach: Most creators build their communities after launching, going for SNS & leaving projects without trust or connection from day one.
I knew we could do better, and we have.
What Sets Quokka Apart?
Here’s how I approached things differently compared to other founders:
Community First:
For an entire year, I focused on building a strong, engaged community before launching anything. Today, I’m stepping forward to reveal myself and show how much we’ve accomplished together.
Collaboration Over Competition:
We partnered with ICTO, merging our development efforts into a single, unified launchpad. Why have two competing launchpads when we can be stronger as a team?
Patience Over Hype:
Instead of rushing to launch, we prioritized doing things the right way. We hosted giveaways, ran meme contests, created partnerships, and waited until ICTO launchpad was fully ready.
The Fairest Launch in History
At Quokka, fairness isn’t just a buzzword, it’s the foundation of everything we do. Here’s how we’re making it a reality:
- Human Verification via BlockID: Only real humans can participate, bots are completely excluded.
- Inclusivity for the #ICP Community: We’re creating widespread awareness to ensure no one misses out on this opportunity.
- Equal Presale Pricing: Everyone buys at the same price during the presale, from as little as 0.1 ICP to a maximum of 100 ICP = keeping whales at bay.
- Locked Liquidity: 88% of the funds raised go directly into a locked liquidity pool, ensuring stability and trust.
- Enough Time to Participate: With an 8-day presale window, everyone has the chance to join.
This isn’t just about launching a token, it’s about rewriting the rules to prioritize fairness, transparency, and community.
What’s Next for Quokka?
Quokka is more than just a memecoin. We’re bringing memes to life and using them to promote real, legit projects of the #ICP ecosystem.
- IRL Marketing Revolution: Quokka will promote projects like OPENCHAT at festivals, events, and on the streets, to onboard more users. (Marketing plan will be revealed, as soon as we start it).
- 12% for Growth: After the launch, 12% of the raised funds will go toward creating custom Quokka costumes and setting up everything we need for real-world campaigns.
What I Want from You
I want you to participate in this launch. Not because we need to raise a lot of ICP, but to show the world how many of us there really are!
Recently, DecideAI announced on X that 25,000 humans have verified themselves on their platform. Let’s use this opportunity to make history and show the entire crypto space the power of the ICP community.
Even with a small investment of just 0.1 ICP, we can send a strong message. Let’s stress-test the ICTO launchpad and show everyone how big and united we truly are.

Marlon Hank
