What does this buy on the curve?

Why the effective price is higher than spot
A bonding curve prices each fraction of a purchase against the supply left at that moment, so a large order pays progressively more as it fills. The premium above — 6.96% — is the gap between the price when you pressed buy and what you actually averaged. Splitting the buy narrows it.
Standard PonsFamily configuration: one billion supply, a phantom reserve near 1.68 ETH, a 1% curve fee, graduation at 4.2 ETH. Excludes the opening tax, which applies only in the first three seconds and not to wallets on the exemption list. How the curve prices a launch.
How a curve prices a buy
There is no order book and no counterparty. The curve holds the entire supply and quotes against a constant product: as tokens leave, the price of the ones remaining rises.
The opening price is not zero because the curve carries a phantom reserve — a virtual balance counted for pricing that nobody deposited and nobody can withdraw. On the standard configuration it sits near 1.68 ETH, which puts the first price around 1.68 × 10⁻⁹ ETH per token.
That is why a large order costs more per token than a small one. Each fraction of it is priced against what is left after the fraction before, so the average you pay lands above the price you saw when you pressed buy.
The opening tax is not in these numbers
For the first three seconds after a launch, buying is taxed at up to 99%. Wallets named on the creator's exemption list never pay it; everyone else does. If you are buying in that window without being on the list, the real cost is far higher than the figure above.
