Launch a token

Launch a token on the pons launchpad without leaving WhatsApp. Eight short questions, one transaction, and your token trades on a bonding curve until it graduates into a permanently locked Uniswap pool.

The eight steps

  1. Name — up to 32 characters.
  2. Ticker — 2–10 letters or digits.
  3. Description — optional. Whats appends “Launched with Whats on WhatsApp” to it.
  4. Logo — send a photo. It is cropped square, pinned to IPFS and written on-chain, so it is permanent.
  5. Links — paste X, Telegram, Discord or website URLs in one message; Whats sorts them.
  6. Creator tax — 0% to 10%, charged on every buy and sell and paid entirely to you. Fixed forever at launch.
  7. Fee wallet — your Whats wallet, another WhatsApp number, or any 0x address (see Creator fees).
  8. Opening buy — optional ETH amount bought inside the launch transaction itself, so nobody can trade before you.

How a pons launch works

The whole supply (1,000,000,000 tokens) is minted to a bonding curve. The curve always buys and sells, with the price rising as people buy. Once 4.2 ETH has been raised the curve closes and the launch graduates: the raised ETH plus a reserved share of the supply seed a Uniswap v4 pool whose liquidity is locked permanently — there is no unlock function for anyone, including pons.

Every launch opens with snipe protection: a tax on buys that starts at 99% and decays to zero within five seconds. The launcher, the fee wallet and the opening-buy recipient are exempt, which is why an opening buy inside the launch transaction is the safe way to get your own allocation.
