Crowdfunding in the context of cryptocurrency involves raising funds for a blockchain project by selling tokens to a large number of investors, typically before the project is fully developed. A private sale is a fundraising event where tokens are sold to a select group of investors, often at a discounted rate and before any public sales, providing early access and potential incentives to these initial supporters.

An IDO is a fundraising method where blockchain projects launch their tokens directly on a decentralized exchange (DEX), enabling instant trading and increased liquidity for investors. Launches on launchpads are also called IDO, but that's not really correct.

The launchpad allows users to participate in token sales of promising projects by purchasing BTC Runes, which they can use to invest in Initial DEX Offerings (IDOs) hosted on the platform.

BtcTerminalis an infrastructure provider for the Runes Protocol, offering tools like RunesPad (a launchpad), RunesScan (a runes explorer), RunesEtcher (for creating runes), and RunesBook (a wiki).
