Celer Network, the layer-2 scaling platform for blockchains, today announced that it is launching a token sale on Binance Launchpad, a platform helping blockchain startups raise funds needed to develop its products. The Launchpad service helps in aiding cryptocurrency adoption and provides development teams with Binance’s advisory resources and access to its ecosystem.
Celer Network makes it possible, for the first time, to build, operate and use highly interactive and low-cost decentralized applications that match the user experience of centralized applications. Celer Network enables instant, easy and secure blockchain transactions through innovations in blockchain-agonistic layer-2 scaling technology and incentive-aligned crypto-economics designs.
Celer Network’s testnet already allows Ethereum transactions and finality latency to be 20,000X faster with zero-fees which revolutionize the user experience for blockchain use cases including interactive gaming, decentralized derivative exchange, micro insurance, decentralized electricity power exchange, decentralized Internet services, general pay-per-use services, non-custodial financial assets exchange and more.
In early February, along with the Sirius testnet launch, Celer Network released CelerX, the first and only layer-2 application platform on iOS and Android. Backed by the most advanced off-chain scaling platform, CelerX users can try out instant and zero-fees payment, and a skill-based Gomoku game.

Celer is currently at the forefront of solving this challenge with the early demonstrations of its sustainable crypto-economics construct and layer-2 blockchain architect powering it.”[/perfectpullquote]
Celer Network’s native token, CELR token, drives cEconomy, the indispensable layer-2 crypto-economic constructs of the Celer Network.
Functionalities of CELR token include:
- CELR is used in State Guardian Network as a membership staking token to protect state availability, provide connectivity oracle and act as channel dispute computation engine. CELR token stakers receive a service fee for the above services that they provide for the network.
- CELR incentivizes a stable and abundant liquidity pool in Proof of Liquidity Commitment process.
- CELR is used in Liquidity Backing Auction to increase the priority of liquidity backing bids and therefore statistically increase the liquidity interests payout of stakers.
- CELR can also be used as a medium of exchange by end-users to pay for layer-2 scalability services.
