January at Integritee: Slot Swap, Davos Touchdown & Much More
We started 2023 with a bang! Besides hard work on the tech side, the team has also been busy with meetings, and events. Check out what happened this January at Integritee.
It has now been 4 months since the Kusma parachain auctions began in June. Since then, 11 separate auctions have been conducted in 2 batches. Integritee officially participated in each auction between Slot 7 and Slot 11. Although we haven’t been successful yet, we have gathered a huge volume of valuable feedback from our backers and supporters. We thought that now would be a good time to reflect on this information and update our strategy prior to the next batch of auctions.
Let’s begin with a quick recap of what the Kusama parachain auctions are all about.
Kusama: Kusama is the “canary network” of Polkadot — a live network with real economic incentives where projects can innovate, experiment and optimize their parachains. Launching a Kusama parachain is the first step towards gaining a parachain slot on the Polkadot network.
The Kusama Parachain Auctions: Each Kusama parachain slot is leased to a project for a specific time slot (lasting 6 - 48 weeks). The slot will be awarded to the project that provides the largest bond in the form of locked-in KSM.
Kusama Crowdloan: Backers can support their favourite projects by bonding or “locking-in” KSM for the duration of the lease period. Backers retain full access to their KSM once the lease period ends. In return for supporting Integritee, we offer crowdloan backers TEER token rewards.

After carefully analyzing the community feedback and data from previous auctions, we have decided to update and increase our rewards for the upcoming batch. When analyzing the data from all winning auctions, it is clear that early momentum is often key. For this reason, we have added further rewards to encourage early participants.

In summary, the key updates to our rewards structure compared to the previous batch of auctions are as follows:
