FAQs

Devs get Revs?

Creators and their coins get 100% of the trading fees.

When creating a coin, devs choose how much of the revenue they want to take for themselves or leave for the community. Here are some examples of the dev profiles a Flaunch user might expect:

Devs are limited to taking a maximum of 80% of the revenue, ensuring at least 20% is always left for the community. Revenue is all paid in ETH (see our “Internal Swap Pool” Uniswap V4 hook).

This aligns incentives between Dev and the Community, and the Community and the Coin. The greater the coin's longevity and trading, the greater the rewards for everyone.

What revenues might I expect?

If Iggy had ƒlaunched MOTHER she would have an annual income of over $10,000,000 without having to sell a single MOTHER token.

Let's take a look at some of the outcomes for a humble dev who chooses 60% revenue share, leaving 40% to the community.

And if you ƒlaunch the next DOGE or PEPE? Higher.

How do I collect my revenue?

Simple. All revenue from all your coins is available as a single ETH claim in the header. Claimable balances are updated in real-time as fees accumulate and reach a threshold of 0.001 ETH.

Can my rewards be taken away from me?

ƒlaunch is a decentralized protocol with no central authority that can take your rewards. Your rewards will be claimable and revenues will continue to accumulate no matter what.

In fact, the protocol goes even further to protect your rewards. When you ƒlaunch a coin you receive an NFT. The owner of the NFT receives the rewards from the coin. What does that mean? You can sell your revenue streams, borrow against them, or use them however you want. This is the power of decentralized meme finance.

How are communities rewarded?

Enough about devs, what's in it for the community? All ƒlaunched coins have a minimum of 20% of the revenue that will go to the community, and a maximum of 100%. By default, these fees are used exclusively for automated Plunge Protection that support the token's price from day 1.

The dev can choose to turn off Plunge Protection and instead begin accumulating ETH that can be used for market buys, airdrops and more. This aspect is called Meme Management and will have a huge impact on how communities coordinate around their coin.

If the community is led by a Galaxy Brain dev, the shared treasury could reach eye watering levels that even the greatest DAOs would not know what to do with.

WIF's fundraise to buy a $650K ad on the Sphere would have been raised in a single day of trading volume had it been ƒlaunched instead of launched.

Fair Launch explained

When a coin is ƒlaunched it starts with an initial 30 minute Fair Launch.

During Fair Launch the price is fixed for everyone for 30 minutes and 200,000,000 tokens (20% of total supply) are available to purchase. The ETH raised during the Fair Launch is then placed immediately into a limit buy, ensuring that Fair Launch participants can exit at the same price (minus trading fees).

After Fair Launch the coin moves into price discovery.

Why can't I sell during Fair Launch?

The Fair Launch period is only for buying. After Fair Launch any buyers can sell at the same price they entered (minus trading fees).

How does the Progressive Plunge Protection work?

Trading fees are added to the coin's Progressive Plunge Protection (PPP) on every swap.

In the case of a coin with 100% community share, all of the trading revenue will go towards filling this PPP which is automatically created for every 0.5 ETH earned.

We add a little Uniswap V4 magic to the PPP as well, with a hook that ensures it moves up to follow the coin's price as it increases – providing additional price support.

Vitamin Boost? What?

Vitalik Buterin has been one of the greatest beneficiaries of memecoins with millions of dollars worth of tokens donated to his wallet. Occasionally, Vitalik may decide to donate the value of his received tokens to various charities or public goods.

When Flaunching a coin there is an option to provide a Vitamin Boost, sending 2% of the token supply to Vitalik and indirectly funding public goods as a result. Your coin will also get a sweet badge.

What is the “ƒluck it” and “I'm in for” slider?

This is the fastest way to buy a coin. Click it, drag it and let go, to spin up a transaction for the amount of ETH you want to spend.

Does Flaunch have a token?

Flaunch is a decentralized protocol with a governance fee switch that is controlled by FLAY holders (https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/flayer (opens in a new tab)).

Does the team take any fees?

No. The team does not take any of the trading fees. FLAY governance can choose to turn on a fee switch that can take a maximum of 10% of the fees.

Instead, the liquidity in the system is lent out via a Uniswap V4 hook and into Aave for an ultra low risk 2% yield. These funds are used to support the Flayer Foundation's growth.

Is Flaunch audited?

Yes, audits from Omniscia.
