QUESTIONS

Straight answers.

The questions people actually ask about PonsFamily launches, answered in a sentence each. Every figure comes from the deployed contracts or from on-chain reads rather than from documentation.

What is bundling on a token launch?

Bundling is buying the opening of a launch with several wallets at once, all of them exempt from the tax that makes buying early expensive for everyone else. On PonsFamily a creator names up to 32 such addresses when the token is created.

The wallets acquire supply at the lowest prices the token will ever trade at, without giving most of it back in tax. It is a documented feature of the protocol rather than an exploit — the exemption list exists precisely so a team can take its own opening.

How can I tell if a token was bundled?

Every buy on a PonsFamily curve records the tax it paid. Inside the opening window an ordinary buyer pays hundreds of basis points and a wallet on the creator's exemption list pays zero, so counting the zero-tax wallets in the first blocks answers it exactly.

One tax-free wallet is the creator's own dev buy, which every launch has because it executes inside the launch transaction. Two or more means addresses were named deliberately.

What percentage of PonsFamily launches are bundled?

24% of the 106 launches analysed so far were bundled, with a median of 5 wallets taking a median 25.0% of supply.

The live figures

How much does it cost to launch a token on PonsFamily?

0.0005 ETH plus gas, and gas on Robinhood Chain is a fraction of a cent. Trades on the bonding curve pay 1%, and a creator can add a tax of up to 10% that is fixed at creation.

How launching works

How long does the PonsFamily launch tax last?

Three seconds. The tax on buying opens at 99% and decays exponentially to nothing within that window. The published documentation says five seconds; the deployed contract returns three, and the contract is what settles trades.

Roughly a quarter of a purchase is still taken one second in and around three percent at two seconds. Selling is never taxed by it at any point.

How to read it yourself

How many wallets should a bundle use?

The protocol allows up to 32, and more wallets is not automatically better: each buy moves the price for the one behind it, so the same total spent across more wallets buys slightly more supply but costs more in gas and takes longer to fire.

The trade-off in numbers

What happens when a launch graduates?

At 4.2 ETH collected, the bonding curve closes and everything it holds seeds a Uniswap v4 pool. The position is transferred to a locker permanently — no withdrawal function exists, for the creator or for the protocol.

The token keeps the same address and the same holders. Only the venue changes, and trading continues in the pool.

In the glossary

Can the creator pull liquidity from a graduated PonsFamily token?

No. The pool position is minted to a locker at graduation and there is no function to withdraw it — not for the creator, not for the protocol. That is a property of the contract rather than a promise from anyone.

Does paying more gas get you in first on Robinhood Chain?

No. Robinhood Chain orders transactions by arrival rather than by fee, so a higher gas price buys no position at all. The only variable that matters is how quickly a transaction leaves.
