Introduction
The EARNM and StormX collaboration represents a pivotal step toward creating the world's largest Web3 rewards ecosystem. This article provides a detailed breakdown of the proposed conversion rate, community voting process, and the strategic decision to halt the IMO (Initial Merger Offering). Our goal is to ensure transparency and alignment with community interests throughout this evolution.
The Strategic Importance of the IMO
Unlocking Synergies
The merger between EARNM and StormX aimed to combine resources, expand utility, and accelerate Web3 adoption. Key benefits included:
- Scaling User Adoption: Targeting 50+ million Web2 users through integrated cashback and savings verticals.
- Enhanced Token Utility: Bridging Web2 and Web3 services across 16 new earnings platforms.
- Sustainable Rewards: Introducing a token recycling mechanism to optimize long-term vesting and distribution.
Valuation Framework
The conversion rate was derived from a 30-day average Fully Diluted Value (FDV):
- EARNM FDV: $99,181,944
- STMX FDV: $75,530,833
- Post-Merger Valuation: $174,712,778
- Total Supply: 5,000,000,000 EARNM tokens
Final Conversion Rates:
- 1 EARNM (v1) = 0.5676856937 EARNM
- 1 STMX = 0.1729257216 EARNM
This allocation ensured 56.77% of new tokens for EARNM holders and 43.23% for StormX holders, reflecting proportional FDV contributions.
Community Vote and Decision
Voting Process
A 7-day community vote concluded on February 21st, allowing token holders to approve or reject the conversion rate. The vote underscored EARNM’s commitment to decentralized governance.

Key factors influencing the decision:

- Treasury Health: Preserving EARNM’s financial stability was prioritized.
