The Stacks token offering is officially opening today at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time. As part of the first SEC-qualified token offering under the Reg A+ framework, Blockstack is offering up to $28 million of Stacks tokens in our cash sale. The general offering price is $0.30 per token, and the voucher program price is $0.12 per token.
The token offering will fuel further growth of the Blockstack decentralized computing network, allowing the ecosystem to continue working toward a future where violations of user trust are impossible and where value accrues with the users and the value creators, and not just centralized corporations. By giving everyone, not just accredited investors, the opportunity to participate in the Blockstack network, we can accelerate the growth of an open, a user-controlled internet.
Voucher Program
Voucher holders, such as early community members, developers, or others who received vouchers during the 2017 token offering and who pre-registered before the May 28, 2019 voucher pre-registration deadline, may purchase up to the amount for which they pre-registered at $0.12 per token. Voucher holders may purchase additional tokens at the general offering price of $0.30 per token. If you’re a voucher holder and you already successfully pre-registered, you can proceed directly to payment by logging in. You cannot get new vouchers.
We have pre-allocated the voucher program based on pre-registration. We will notify voucher holders at least five days prior to the day on which we terminate the voucher program at less than full subscription.
Please note that voucher holders who want to purchase more tokens than they indicated in their pre-registration may have their purchase reduced to the amount they originally indicated in their pre-registration in the event that the program is oversubscribed.

Thank you for your support of the Blockstack network and app ecosystem; you’re ushering in a world of software that can’t be evil by design and enables fundamental digital rights to all.
Payments:
- The general offering is happening on a first-come, first-serve basis, as measured by receipt of payment. Please consider this when selecting a payment method, for example ACH will process much slower than other methods. If the sale fills up while your payment is processing, you may miss out on the opportunity to purchase Stacks tokens. You can learn more about payment processing times here.
- If you are planning to purchase more than $200,000 worth of Stacks tokens, our investor relations team would like to assist you personally. You may proceed with purchasing up to $200,000 through stackstoken.com and work with our investor relations team for any additional purchases above that amount. Please email [email protected] and we’ll get in touch with you.
