The BlockDAG project, having concluded a presale that raised over $450 million, is preparing for the official launch of its Layer-1 network on February 16. In the final lead-up, the project has introduced a tiered system of "Access Packs" designed to give early investors and serious traders a significant operational advantage on launch day.
The packs are structured to separate administrative logistics from trading strategy. The entry-level options—Early Access ($99), Priority Access ($199), and Elite Access ($249)—provide a time advantage, allowing holders to claim their BDAG tokens 3, 6, or 9 hours early, respectively. This is pitched as a way for investors to settle their tokens in their wallets well before public trading begins, eliminating last-minute chaos and allowing full focus on market activity.
For high-stakes participants, BlockDAG offers premium bundles: the Launch Essentials, Elite Trader, and the top-tier Genesis Max pack priced at $4,999. These bundles include exclusive benefits beyond early access. A key feature is the "Insider Room," a private channel offering direct project intelligence, roadmap updates, and partner news, framed as a critical information advantage.
The Genesis Max pack includes the "Genesis Protection Program," described as a high-level security and priority handling layer for significant allocations. All premium packs also offer "Priority Claim Handling" and a "White Glove" service experience, ensuring smooth, queue-free transactions while the general public navigates a potentially crowded launch portal.
The overarching narrative positions these tools as essential for professional-grade participation. The project emphasizes that its hybrid Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) and Proof-of-Work (PoW) architecture is built for high speed and security, expecting significant market interest and volatile price action upon launch.
