Plan your launch

​

Choosing a pair

The paired asset is what the pool quotes your coin in, what traders pay into the pool, and what every fee and every holder reward is paid in. Two things follow from that. Pick HYPE if you want the simplest coin and the widest audience. Pick USDC for a coin priced in dollars whose fees arrive as dollars. Pick a stock if the coin is about that company or index and you want its price and its fee income tied to it. The Features page lists every available pair, its address and the pool the router uses to reach it.

​

Starting market cap

The form offers three presets, fixed at deployment ($3,000, $10,000 and $25,000), and the coin opens at the one you pick, whatever the pair. A lower start means the first buys move the price more, which rewards the earliest buyers and makes the opening more volatile; a higher start means each buy moves the price less. The cap is recorded with the coin and never changes.

​

Choosing the fee

The fee is flat, charged on every buy and sell in the paired asset, and the form lets you set it between 0.1% and 3%, 1% by default. The hook keeps 60% of what is left after holder rewards and the buyback for you and 40% for the platform. A higher fee earns more per trade but makes a round trip more expensive: at 3% a buy and a sell cost 6% before price movement, which discourages active trading. 1% is the default and the most common choice.

​

Anti-snipe

Anti-snipe adds an extra fee to buys, and only buys, during the first blocks after launch. It starts at the percentage you choose (up to 30%) and falls block by block until it reaches your normal fee at the end of the window. Sells are never charged more than the normal fee. The extra fee is split like any other fee, so early snipers pay you and your holders rather than the other way round.

• The form takes the start percentage and a window. The window is stored as a number of HyperEVM blocks, which come about one a second, so 10 minutes is about 600 blocks. The contracts require at least 5 blocks and at most 7,200 (about two hours).
• The start percentage must be above your flat fee. 10% to 30% with a window of 5 to 30 minutes is a usual setting for a public launch.
• Your own community pays it too if they buy inside the window. Announce the window length so people know when the fee is back to normal; the coin page shows the current buy fee.
• Your dev buy is not affected: it pays the flat fee.

​

Holder rewards

With holder rewards on, a share of every fee (up to 50%) is paid to holders in proportion to their balance, in the paired asset. The share is taken before the 60/40 split, so a 30% share leaves 70% of the fee to split: 42% to you, 28% to the platform.

• The choice is permanent: a coin launched with rewards keeps paying them forever, and a coin launched without them can never add them.
• Rewards accrue in a pot on the hook. Anyone can push the pot to the coin, which then lets every holder claim their share. The coin page and the profile do this with one click.
• A push only goes through once at least 100,000 coins (0.01% of the supply) are held by ordinary wallets; before that the pot keeps accruing.
• The pool itself, the Liqio contracts and the coin contract earn nothing; only wallets do.
• 10% to 30% is a usual range. Every point you give to holders comes out of the platform's share as well as yours. Holder rewards and a buyback together may take at most 80% of the fee.

​

Buyback and burn

A buyback share (10% to 50% of the fee) turns fee income into burned supply: the pot buys the coin in its own pool and burns it each time it reaches the threshold you set in dollars ($5 to $10,000, converted to the pair at launch). A low threshold burns often in small amounts; a high one burns rarely in larger amounts, which moves the price more at once (each burn stops after about 3% of price movement and keeps the rest for the next). The share comes out of the fee before the 60/40 split, like holder rewards, and the two together are capped at 80%.

​

Max wallet

A max-wallet window (0.5% to 20% of the supply per wallet, for 15 minutes to 30 days on the form) spreads the first buys across more wallets. The hook counts gross buys per originating wallet, so a wallet that sells does not get its allowance back, and a smart wallet relayed through a shared bundler shares the bundler's allowance. Keep the window short: it only matters at the start, and a determined buyer can still split across wallets. Your own dev buy counts against your allowance.

​

Dev buy

You can send HYPE with the launch, up to 50 HYPE on the form. It buys coins at the opening price in the same transaction, after the pool is seeded, and the coins arrive in your wallet. The launch block is closed to every other buy, so nobody can front-run it.

• For a stock or USDC pair the HYPE is converted to the pair first, through the same route the site uses for trading. The launch sends a minimum pair amount of 0, so the conversion takes whatever the route returns at that moment. A stock with no route has no dev buy.
• The dev buy pays the normal flat fee, which is split like any other fee (60% of it comes back to you as creator share).
• The amount is public: the DevBought event records the HYPE sent, the pair amount it became and the coins received, and the coin page shows it.
• Buying a large share of the supply at launch tends to put off other buyers. Most creators keep it small or skip it.

​

Cost

There is no creation fee. A launch costs gas only: cloning the coin, creating the pool, seeding the position and, if you include a dev buy on a stock or USDC pair, one extra swap. A launch uses about 1.2M gas, which fits HyperEVM's small blocks (3M gas, about one a second), so it does not have to wait for a big block. The site shows an estimate before you confirm.
