Explain your token to supporters: a plain-language template

This is placeholder text standing in for the real article. The finished piece answers the question in the title in its first sentence, then works through it in short paragraphs that each make sense on their own.

Every paragraph is written so a person who has never launched anything can follow it. Technical words get explained the first time they appear, in the same sentence, in under ten words.

What this is for

Where something can go wrong, the finished article says so plainly. Being honest about risk is the point, not a disclaimer bolted on at the end.
