Launch
onYour half of the fee pays for exactly as long as you still hold your own allocation. Sell it and your half stops, permanently, by contract. That is the deal, and it is the deal your buyers can read before they buy.
Anyone can launch anything here. Nothing is vetted, names can be copied, and most tokens go to zero. This is Arc testnet: nothing launched here is real money.
What you get
The trading fee is 1% and it is split 50/50: half to you, half to the treasury. It comes from the pool's own fee tier, so no code of ours runs inside a trade. If your launch is paired against MDOG, the platform half is burned as MDOG rather than paid to the treasury; your half is the same either way.
The creator half is paid while the creator still holds their launch allocation. Sell it and the half stops, permanently, and buying back does not restore it. It tracks one address, and moving the allocation to another wallet counts as selling, so that trips it permanently too. What it does not cover is a creator who takes a small allocation and buys more from wallets it never sees. We would rather say that than hide it.
The pool position is owned by a locker contract with no withdraw function. Not a timelock, not a promise, not a multisig that says it will behave. Your buyers do not have to believe anything: the calls that prove it are on the proof page, and on your token's own page.
No owner, no admin, no upgrade path, anywhere. Your allocation is capped at 10% by the factory, so nobody can accuse you of holding more, and the cap is visible on chain from the first block. The factory retains nothing from your launch.
Why this is framed at holders rather than at creators: a buyer who can see that the creator is paid only while they stay is a buyer who needs less convincing. The mechanic is worth more to you as a reason to buy than as a line on your own income.
Launch a token
The quote asset must have 18 decimals. The factory refuses anything else, so the price maths cannot be quietly wrong. On Arc the gas coin is USDC itself, with 18 decimals, which is why a USDC pair is the native currency.
What launching does not do
- It does not make anyone buy. Most tokens launched anywhere go to zero, including most of the ones on our own board, which is why the board says how many have never moved off their opening price.
- It does not vet you, and it does not vet anyone else. Nothing on this pad is checked, endorsed or filtered. A ticker can copy a real one.
- It does not let you undo anything. There is no owner and no upgrade path, so a mistyped name or a wrong supply is permanent.
- It does not give you the liquidity back. That is the point. The locker has no withdraw function, so the liquidity you seed is not yours to retrieve, ever.
The addresses, the contracts, and the exact read-only calls you can run yourself to confirm the locker owns the liquidity and nobody can take it back.
Every launch so far BoardRead live from Arc testnet, in the state each one is actually in: whether the liquidity is locked, what the creator kept, and whether they still hold it.
