Open.Discover.Launch.

A launchpad where every launch is a chest. The token, its allocation and its rules are sealed in a contract with no owner — and revealed when it opens.

How it works

Three words, one transaction.

  1. Open.01

    Fill the chest.

    Name, ticker, image. Then the allocation — your first buy, and how long it takes to unlock — and the rules: your creator fee and how much of the loot is burned. One transaction seals it.

  2. Discover.02

    Everyone sees what is inside.

    The token, the allocation and the rules are read back from the contract — the same numbers you accepted, on a page anyone can open. The chest's tier says at a glance how much you gave up.

  3. Launch.03

    Live on the curve, loot on every trade.

    The token trades on Pons V2. Every trade's creator fee lands in the chest; anyone can open it, and it pays out by the rules — 1% to whoever turned the key.

What is in a chest

Three things, sealed at launch.

A chest is a contract with no owner. What goes in is decided once, in the launch transaction, and read back from the chain ever after.

01 · The token

Name, ticker, image, story.

Launched on Pons V2 with a fresh bonding curve, paired with ETH. Graduates at 4.2 ETH into a pool, like every Pons token. The chest is its creator-fee recipient from the first block.

  • 1e9 supply
  • 1% trade fee
  • 0.0005 ETH launch fee

02 · The allocation

The creator's first buy, on a schedule.

With a lock, the first buy is delivered to the chest instead of a wallet and unlocks linearly over the days the creator chose. Anyone can trigger an unlock; it always pays the creator. Without a lock, it is in the wallet from block one — and the chest says so.

  • no lock
  • 7 days
  • 30 days
  • 90 days
  • 180 days
  • custom

03 · The rules

Where the loot goes, every time.

Every opening pays 1% to whoever opened it and 10% to LOOTPAD. Of the rest, the creator's burn share is bought back and burned on the curve; what remains is theirs. The creator fee on trades is a rule too.

  • 66.75% creator
  • 22.25% burned
  • 10% LOOTPAD
  • 1% opener

Rarity

Earned by the rules. Never rolled.

A chest's tier is computed from its lock, its burn share and its creator fee — the numbers in the contract, not a badge the creator picks. It says how much they gave up, not whether the token is any good.

Common

Any rules.

The allocation is in the creator's wallet from block one. Nothing is locked; read the rules before you buy.

Rare

Allocation locked 7+ days.

The creator's first buy unlocks over at least a week instead of landing in a wallet.

Epic

Locked 30+ days · 25%+ of the loot burned · creator fee ≤ 5%.

A month-long unlock, a quarter of every opening bought back and burned, and a creator fee that stays reasonable.

Legendary

Locked 90+ days · 50%+ of the loot burned · creator fee ≤ 3%.

The creator gave up the most: a quarter-year unlock, half the loot burned, and almost no creator fee.

Questions

The honest answers.

Is a Legendary chest a safe token?

No. A tier says what the creator gave up — how long their allocation is locked, how much of the loot burns, how small their fee is — and nothing about whether the token is worth anything. It reads the chest's own rules; a creator's other wallets are invisible to a contract, and a creator with no first buy can still buy from another wallet after the snipe-tax window. Read the rules, then decide.

Who can open a chest, and why would they?

Anyone. Opening pulls the creator fees Pons has swept into its escrow and pays them out by the rules, and 1% of what comes out goes to whoever turned the key. A chest with loot in it gets opened because opening pays.

What does LOOTPAD earn?

10% of every opening, taken by the chest itself and sent to the pad's treasury. Nothing at launch: the 0.0005 ETH launch fee is Pons' own. The router's owner can add a pad launch fee later, and the site will show it if that happens; it is zero.

Where does the loot come from?

Every trade on a Pons curve pays a 1% fee; 70% of it belongs to the creator-fee recipient, which is the chest. A creator fee, if the creator set one, is charged on top and goes to the chest too. Fees wait on the curve until Pons sweeps them to its escrow — the chest page shows what is accruing and what is ready.

What happens to the burn share after graduation?

The burn buys the token on the bonding curve, and a graduated curve can no longer be bought from. So the burn rule ends at graduation: from the first opening that sees it, the creator's share is the full remainder, and any burn loot still waiting is sent to the dead address as ETH. It never reaches the creator. The rules card says "until graduation" for exactly this reason.

Can the rules change after launch?

No. A chest has no owner and no admin: the router names its token and curve once, in the launch transaction, and the lock, the burn share and the splits are immutable. The router's owner can pause new launches, move the pad's treasury address and set a pad launch fee — never touch an existing chest. The creator can hand their role to another address in two steps, which changes who is paid and nothing else.

Why does the allocation unlock linearly rather than all at once?

A cliff invites a dump on the day it ends. A linear unlock means the market watches the allocation come out at a known rate from a known date, and the chest page shows how much is still inside at any moment.

Why is the burn sliced?

An open call is public, so a big buyback in one go could be sandwiched. Each opening burns at most 2% of the curve's reserve, and burns are at least an hour apart. Moving the price by p costs an attacker about 2% × p × reserves in fees and wins them at most p × slice, so a slice under 2% cannot be sandwiched at a profit. The rest waits for the next opening.
