Launchpad FAQ
23 questions about KABOOM!. Launches on KABOOM! are open on Solana mainnet. In short: a Solana launch has no launch fee and pays a 1% creation fee on its dev-buy, every trade pays about 2%, 5% of the supply vests to the maker over 30 days and 100% of the liquidity locks at migration.
Launch rules at a glance
The same config applies to every Solana coin launched here. The curve numbers are the mainnet config.
| Rule | Value |
|---|---|
| Supply | 1,000,000,000 tokens, 6 decimals |
| Trading starts at | 30 SOL market cap (the mainnet config; test curve 1 SOL) |
| Curve completes at | 400 SOL market cap (test curve 10 SOL), then a Meteora DAMM v2 pool (1% fee tier) |
| Trading fee on the curve | about 2%; the coin page shows the exact on-chain fee |
| Fee split, on the nominal 2% | Meteora 0.4% · platform 1.104% · maker 0.496%; accrues in the pool, each side claims its share |
| Anti-sniper window | 50% falling to about 2% over 60 s (the mainnet config) |
| Maker vesting | 5% of supply, 30 steps over 30 days from migration; no cancel path found; the maker's dev-buy tokens are not locked |
| Liquidity at migration | 100% permanently locked; fee claims on the locked positions untested |
| Token authority | the bonding-curve SDK's immutable option; the coin page reads the mint authority from the chain |
| Launch fee (Solana) | none: network fee and rent only |
| Creation fee (Solana) | 1% of the dev-buy (plus every bundle wallet on a bundle launch), to the platform inside the launch transaction, 100% platform and not shared with referrers; none without a dev-buy |
Where each number comes from is on the method page.
The basics
What is KABOOM!?
KABOOM! is a multichain token launchpad for Solana and Robinhood Chain. Launches on KABOOM! are open on Solana mainnet. On an open network you create a token on a bonding curve and trade it there. Solana coin pages show how much the maker holds, how the maker allocation vests, whether the liquidity is locked and what the fees are. Robinhood Chain coin pages show who deployed the coin, how open the launch was and the creator fees. Every number is read from the chain when the page loads.
Which blockchains does KABOOM! support?
Two: Solana and Robinhood Chain. On Solana, coins launch on a Meteora Dynamic Bonding Curve and move to a Meteora DAMM v2 pool when the curve completes. On Robinhood Chain, coins launch on PONS, a token launch protocol deployed on Robinhood Chain; the planned KABOOM! hub contract (not yet deployed) would create the coin and make the first buys in one transaction.
Is KABOOM! live on mainnet?
Partly. On Solana, everything is open on mainnet with real SOL at stake: launching, trading and the trading tools, every transaction signed by your own wallet. On Robinhood Chain, the KABOOM! hub contract is not deployed yet, and sending from the app stays off while the contracts are unaudited. Coin pages can read Solana mainnet pools either way, and each launch page says when its network has no launch config.
Will my token go up in value?
Nobody can promise that, and KABOOM! does not. A launchpad gives you a token and a visible set of rules, not buyers. The price of a new token can drop to zero within minutes. Nothing on this site is financial advice. Never put in more than you can afford to lose.
Launching a token
What do I need to launch a token?
A Solana wallet with enough SOL for the network fee and rent, a name, a symbol and an image of up to 2 MB. A description, a website, an X link and a Telegram link are optional, and so is a dev-buy: SOL you spend on your own coin in the launch transaction. On Solana, everything is open on mainnet with real SOL at stake: launching, trading and the trading tools, every transaction signed by your own wallet.
How much does it cost to launch a token on KABOOM!?
On Solana there is no launch fee. You pay the network fee and the rent for the new accounts, plus your optional dev-buy. Every Solana launch with a dev-buy pays a 1% creation fee on the buy (the dev-buy, plus every bundle wallet on a bundle launch) to the platform, inside the launch transaction; a launch without a dev-buy pays none. The 1% creation fee goes entirely to the platform; referral rewards come from trading and tool fees, never from the creation fee. Before you sign, the launch page shows the creation fee and simulates the exact transaction, so you see the total that leaves your wallet. On Robinhood Chain, PONS charges a launch fee in ETH; the launch page reads it from the contracts and shows it before you sign.
Is the creation fee shared with referrers?
No. The 1% creation fee goes entirely to the platform; referral rewards come from trading and tool fees, never from the creation fee. A referrer is paid a share of the fees KABOOM! collects from the wallets they brought, and the creation fee is never part of that.
What is a dev-buy and where can I see it?
A dev-buy is SOL the maker spends on their own coin inside the launch transaction. The pool is created in that same transaction, so nobody can buy ahead of it. The Solana coin page shows the dev-buy as a share of the supply, read from the launch transaction. Dev-buy tokens are not vested: they sit in the maker's wallet and can be sold at any time.
Can I launch with bundle wallets?
Bundle launches are open on Solana mainnet: the coin, the maker's dev-buy and buys from up to 2 of the maker's own vault wallets go in one transaction, with a 1% creation fee on the total buy (the same 1% a standard launch pays on its dev-buy), and the coin page lists every bundle wallet. The bundle wallets sign the launch transaction with the maker, so it lands as a whole or not at all; what does not fit in one transaction is refused, never split. Bundle buys pay the coin's launch fee at that moment, including the anti-sniper fee, and the review shows every cost before you sign. On Robinhood Chain, the planned KABOOM! hub contract (not yet deployed) would make the maker’s buy and buys from declared bundle wallets in the launch transaction, up to a limit read from the contract, and the coin page would show the bundled wallets.
Curve, fees and launch rules
How does the bonding curve work?
Every Solana coin starts on a bonding curve: a program that sets the price from how many tokens have been bought. Buys push the price up along the curve and sells push it down. In the mainnet config, trading starts at a market cap of 30 SOL and the curve completes at 400 SOL, when the coin migrates to a Meteora DAMM v2 pool. The test curve (used only in our own test runs) runs from 1 to 10 SOL.
What happens when the curve completes?
The coin migrates: its liquidity moves into a Meteora DAMM v2 pool with a 1% fee tier. After migration the coin trades in that pool, outside this app's trade panel. 100% of the liquidity is permanently locked, and the maker's vested allocation starts unlocking at the same moment.
What is the trading fee and who receives it?
Every trade on the curve pays about 2%: the on-chain fee schedule rounds to whole basis points, and the Solana coin page shows the exact fee. On the nominal 2%, 0.4% goes to Meteora, which runs the bonding curve program, 0.496% to the maker and 1.104% to the platform. The fees accrue on-chain in the pool: the maker claims their share from the coin page and the platform wallet claims its share.
What is the anti-sniper fee?
In the mainnet config, the trading fee starts at 50% for the first 60 seconds after launch and falls exponentially to about 2% in 30 steps; the test config uses a 30-second window. Bots that buy in the first block pay for it. The maker's own dev-buy inside the launch transaction pays the normal fee.
How does maker vesting work?
5% of the supply is set aside for the maker and moves into a vesting escrow at migration. It is released in 30 equal steps over 30 days from migration, without a cliff, so before migration the maker cannot sell it. No way to cancel the escrow was found, though that is not proven. The maker's own dev-buy tokens are not locked. The Solana coin page shows the schedule and how much has unlocked.
Is the liquidity locked?
Yes, at migration 100% of the liquidity is permanently locked: 50% in a platform position and 50% in a maker position. The locked liquidity cannot be withdrawn; whether trading fees on the locked positions can be claimed has not been tested yet. The rule is part of the config every Solana coin launches with, and the coin page reads the LP status from the chain. For Robinhood Chain coins the LP lock is not known.
Can anyone mint more tokens or change the name or image?
Every Solana coin has a supply of 1,000,000,000 tokens with 6 decimals and is configured with the bonding-curve SDK's immutable token-authority option, not one of the options that keep a mint authority. That is the launch config, not a recorded check: the coin page reads the mint authority and the metadata from the chain, so check there for each coin.
Disclosure and data
What is the disclosure badge?
The badge answers one question: how much of the supply sat with a few related wallets right after launch. Below 15% is green, 15 to 30% is orange and above 30% is red. It has two layers that are never added up: tokens bundled through this platform, which is certain, and detected clusters, which is an estimate. The bundle layer of the disclosure badge is live; cluster figures are not live yet, so no cluster number is shown. Until a layer has a source, the coin page says so instead of showing a number.
What are detected clusters, and can they be wrong?
A detected cluster is a group of early buyers whose wallets look linked, for example because the same wallet funded them. It is an indication, never proof, and it is never labelled as the maker. It can be wrong in both directions, so a cluster figure is only shown with the false-positive rate the detector measured in its own blind tests. Detection covers Solana mainnet coins only, and the current detector does not report that rate yet, so no cluster figure is shown today.
Where does the data on KABOOM! come from?
From the chain, every time a page loads. Solana coin pages read the pool, its config, the mint, the metadata and the vesting escrow on every refresh, and build trades and candles from the swap events in the pool's own transactions; a candle opens at the previous close and gaps are never filled in. Robinhood Chain coin pages read the coin from the PONS contracts. There is no separate price database.
Wallets and safety
Which wallets can I use?
On Solana, the app finds browser wallets through the Wallet Standard, and it can also sign with a wallet from the built-in vault. On Robinhood Chain it uses an EVM browser wallet. You sign every transaction yourself.
What is the wallet vault?
The vault keeps extra wallets in this browser, encrypted with a password you choose (scrypt and AES-256-GCM). You can fund all of them in one approval, trade from them and sweep the balances back. The keys stay in your browser, so export a backup: if you lose the browser data and the backup, nobody can recover those wallets.
Does KABOOM! hold my funds?
No. You sign every transaction in your own wallet, and trades go straight to the on-chain programs: Meteora on Solana, PONS on Robinhood Chain. KABOOM! has no deposit account and no database of balances. Trading fees accrue on-chain in the pool, and the platform wallet claims its share from there.
Are the Robinhood Chain contracts audited?
No. The KABOOM! hub and the fee splitter on Robinhood Chain have not been audited and are not deployed yet, and the launch page says so. Sending from the app to Robinhood Chain mainnet stays off until there is an audit and an explicit go. Only put in what you can afford to lose.
