Launch

The bonding bar and graduation

Every coin starts on a bonding curve. When the curve fills to its target, the coin graduates to a real pool and its liquidity is locked for good.

Reading the bar

The bar on every coin's page is 20 blocks, 5% each. The one filling now blinks.

Targets

Chain Target Graduates to
Solana 85 SOL (USDC-priced: 10,150 USDC) Meteora DAMM v2
Robinhood Chain 4 ETH Uniswap v4
Arc 7,500 USDC Uniswap v4

The target is fixed per chain; creators can't change it. Supply is 1,000,000,000: 800M on the curve, 200M paired with the raised SOL / ETH / USDC in the pool.

If your buy would overshoot the target, it's cut to what the curve needs, and the rest stays in your wallet.

What happens at graduation

  • 1EDGE launch, Solana: everything raised plus 200M tokens go into a new Meteora DAMM v2 pool. The liquidity is permanently locked in the same step. Buyers' tokens unlock.
  • 1EDGE launch, Robinhood Chain / Arc: a Uniswap v4 pool with one full-range position, owned by the migrator contract. There's no code path that removes it.
  • Open launch, Solana: the Meteora curve migrates to DAMM v2. The pass gate and the transfer lock come off.
  • Open launch, Robinhood Chain / Arc: it's already a v4 pool. Graduation flips the gate off; transfers open.

Wallet caps, cooldowns and launch rules end at graduation. After graduation anyone can buy, sell and send, on 1edge.app or anywhere else.

Fees after graduation

  • Solana, EDGE: the pool fee steps down from 1.15% toward 0.55% as the market cap grows. Meteora keeps 20% of pool fees.
  • Solana, Tek: the same fee the creator set; each share earns 80% of its rate (Meteora keeps 20%).
  • Robinhood Chain / Arc: the pool keeps the coin's curve fee, flat.

All numbers: Fees.

Stuck?

If a graduation ever stalls, holders on a Solana 1EDGE launch can take a refund from the curve after 7 days.
