# Launchpad Ranks

Launchpad Ranks are a tiered system that determines the perks you get during every token launch on Atlantis.

Depending on your rank, you’ll gain access to:

* Exclusive allocations in FCFS, high-demand, sales
* Access to discounted low-hard cap Private Sales
* **A percentage of the total fundraise amount**
* **A percentage of the partner project’s native token**
* Access to exclusive Airdrops from partner projects

Your rank is calculated based on how much **AQUA and xAQUA** you hold, either in your wallet or staked through core Atlantis plugins.

Snapshots will be taken at random times before each sale.

## **The Ranks**

### How to Qualify for a Rank <a href="#heading-how-to-qualify-for-a-rank" id="heading-how-to-qualify-for-a-rank"></a>

It’s very straightforward: to qualify, you must hold or stake AQUA and/or xAQUA.

You’re eligible if your tokens are:

* In your wallet
* Staked in **Treasures** (25% of total protocol revenue share)
* Staked in **Trident Vaults** (partner token’s farming)

However, if you’ve started the **unlock process for xAQUA**, those tokens won’t count toward your rank until fully unlocked. So if you're planning to participate in a launch, make sure your tokens are actively held or staked.

### Snapshot Timing <a href="#heading-snapshot-timing" id="heading-snapshot-timing"></a>

We will take **random snapshots** before each token sale to determine your rank at that time.

There won’t be a set schedule, the randomness ensures the fairness of the process and discourages short-term manipulation.\

`The takeaway: if you want to be eligible, it’s best to keep your AQUA and xAQUA in place ahead of any launch announcements.`

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.atlantisprotocol.so/atlantis-launchpad/launchpad-ranks.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
