I'm pleased to announce we're starting the first wave of refunds for @Slerfsol presale affected users.

We're prioritizing those who deposited smaller amounts first, ensuring we help as many as possible with the funds raised so far.

We'll begin with a test run before…

To ensure the efficiency of the refund mechanism and reduce the risk of complications, LBank is conducting a test run before fully implementing the process. This cautious and methodical approach highlights the exchange’s dedication to handling refunds responsibly and effectively.

In a joint effort between SLERF and LBank, a donation campaign was launched, resulting in the collection of nearly 4,000 SOL within just 24 hours. On-chain data reveals that approximately 3,800 SOL have been refunded so far, with priority given to small-scale users who participated in SLERF’s initial fundraising phase.

The donation process is ongoing, and contributors are promised airdrop rewards once the campaign concludes, further incentivizing community support. The specifics of these rewards are yet to be disclosed.

The refund initiative follows operational setbacks that led to the depletion of all LP tokens and airdropped tokens reserved for the project’s fundraising, as well as the forfeiture of access rights, effectively wiping out the project’s liquidity pool containing 50,000 SOL.

To address these challenges, SLERF’s founder has affirmed that the LBank team will collaborate closely with the community to oversee the refund process and ensure the founder’s exclusion from any token-related operations.
