# EGL Genesis ETH holders can support the EGL Genesis by sending ETH to the EGL launch contract. The ETH sent will be matched with 750,000,000 EGLs and deployed to a Balancer ETH-EGL pool. The resulting *balancer* *pool tokens (BPT)* will be held by the EGL smart contract, and gradually released to the Genesis supporters. Furthermore, an additional 500,000,000 EGLs are awarded to supporters, allowing them to actively vote on their desired gas limit.\ \ Contract Address:[ 0x21Df223E4cc9F270383e33BCdDBc25F27cf7aE96](https://etherscan.io/address/0x21Df223E4cc9F270383e33BCdDBc25F27cf7aE96) ## Genesis closed on August 13, 2021 at 6am PT The EGL Genesis closed on August 13, 2021 at 6am PT with 10,806.88 ETH Stake, worth \~$35M and matched with 1.25B EGLs worth, at the time, \~$58M! \ \ The tokens were sent to an [ETH-EGL Balancer Pool](https://app.balancer.fi/#/pool/0xB0401AB1108BD26C85A07243DFDF09F4821D76A200020000000000000000007F) and the voting contract was deployed by the multisig holders.
