Buy & sell

A launch has two trading venues in its life: the ETH curve while it is filling, and a token/quote pool after it bonds. Both are real Uniswap V4 pools, and the token page trades whichever one is live, always in plain ETH.

On the curve

The curve is a live Uniswap V4 pool quoted in WETH, with the entire curve allocation sitting as a single liquidity position over the curve's price range. In plain terms: the price starts low and rises smoothly as people buy, with no order book and no counterparty needed. Selling moves the price back down the same way.

You buy with plain ETH. The site routes through the swap router's buyWithEth and sellForEth; any wallet or bot that can swap Uniswap V4 can also trade the pool directly, with no launchpad-specific integration. See developers.

Approvals

Buying needs no approval at all; you send ETH. Selling requests an exact-amount approval by default: permission for precisely the trade you are making, and nothing more. "Unlimited" is an explicit checkbox, never the default. This costs a little more gas and is worth it.

Slippage and deadlines

Every trade carries a minimum-output bound and a deadline. If the price moves against you beyond your tolerance, or your transaction sits unconfirmed too long, it reverts rather than filling at a price you did not agree to.

Filling the curve

When buys push the price to the top of the curve's range and the raise reaches its 4.2 ETH threshold, the curve is done. The bond itself is a separate, permissionless step: anyone can call it, a keeper does within seconds, and nothing is ever stuck waiting on us.

After the bond

Once a launch bonds, the token trades in a Uniswap V4 pool paired with its quote token, with permanently locked liquidity. The token page still trades in plain ETH: the swap router converts through the quote's pool automatically, in the same transaction. You can also trade the bonded pool directly anywhere that routes V4.

Fees still work the same: the pool charges the same total, split the same way, including the creator's cashback mode, now denominated in the quote token.

What you pay

Every trade pays a 1% base fee plus whatever the creator chose (0 to 2%), taken by the hook in both directions. That is the whole cost. There is no separate pool fee stacked on top, because the pool's own fee tier is set to zero and the hook charges instead.

If the creator picked quote burn, your trades permanently shrink the quote token's supply. If they picked holder rewards, you earn continuously for as long as you hold. See fees & cashback.

Reading the curve progress bar

The bar on each token page shows how much of the 4.2 ETH bond threshold has been raised. At 100%, the launch is ready to bond, and anyone can finish it. It only moves on real trades through the pool.
