Understanding Fees and Pricing on Our Meme Launchpad

Our meme token launchpad operates on a transparent bonding curve mechanism with clearly defined fees and pricing. All contract code is publicly viewable and verifiable on the Sui blockchain.

Contract Address: 0x77ac135cc98f38cbcda46fcf1955c91aa840da976c5f5b626b9ee0a223de3787

You can verify all pricing formulas, fee structures, and platform mechanics directly on Suiscan. Our smart contract is fully open-source and auditable.

How Pricing Works

Bonding Curve Formula

Token prices increase automatically as more tokens are minted using this formula:

Price = (BASE_PRICE + (total_minted_tokens × SLOPE)) × token_amount

Where:

BASE_PRICE: 100,000 (starting price multiplier)
SLOPE: 10 (price increase rate per token minted)
FIXED_POINT_SCALE: 1,000,000,000 (9 decimal precision)

Price Examples

First tokens: Lower price due to minimal supply
Later tokens: Higher price as total supply increases
Price increases linearly with each token minted

Fee Structure

Trading Fees

Fee Rate: Set by platform admin (viewable in contract)
Fee Format: Basis Points (BPS) where 100 BPS = 1%
Maximum Fee: Capped at 10,000 BPS (100%)

Fee Application

When Buying Tokens:

Total cost = Token price + Trading fee
Trading fee goes to platform admin
Token price goes to bonding curve treasury

When Selling Tokens:

You receive: Refund amount - Trading fee
Trading fee deducted before transfer to you

Graduation Fees

When a token reaches 1.2 SUI in the treasury:

Platform Fee: 0.2 SUI (collected by admin)
Pool Creation: 1 SUI + 200M tokens automatically added to Cetus DEX
Automatic Graduation: No manual intervention required

Key Constants (Hardcoded in Contract)

Pool Creation

Graduation Threshold: 1.2 SUI in treasury
Platform Fee: 0.2 SUI (goes to admin)
Initial Pool Liquidity: 1 SUI + 200M tokens
Fee Tier: 0.25% (standard DEX trading fee)

Safety Limits

Maximum Token Amount: Prevents overflow errors
Minimum Trade Size: Must be whole token amounts (9 decimals)
Treasury Validation: Ensures sufficient funds for all operations
