how a launch works
The count runs down to liftoff. As you read, the tower lights each station in turn; every step is something you can check afterwards.
- T-7
You fill in the coin
A name, a ticker, a picture, and the socials you have. Sign in with your wallet first: it signs one plain message and nothing else.
- T-6
Every station answers
Ticker format, ticker not taken, name not a copy, picture not a copy, ticker not traded elsewhere, one launch per wallet a day. One NO-GO is a hold: nothing launches, nothing is uploaded.
- T-5
The ticker and name are taken in the database
Two launches racing for one ticker cannot both get through: the database refuses the second, whatever the checks said a moment before.
- T-4
Your browser makes the coin's address
The mint keypair is made in your browser, signs the create, and is thrown away. No server ever holds it.
- T-3
One private bundle
Go-Pad's master wallet creates the coin on pump.fun with no dev buy, then opts it into fee sharing and writes the split, 50% to you and 50% to the buyback, and revokes the admin. Both go to Jito as one bundle: they land together in one slot, or not at all.
- T-2
Liftoff
The coin is live on pump.fun. From here it trades like any pump.fun coin; the bundle only kept snipers out of the creation block.
- T-1
Fees, buyback, burn
As the coin trades, its creator fees build up. Go-Pad distributes them: pump.fun pays your half to your wallet, the other half buys the coin on its curve, and every token bought is burned. Each step is on the Ledger with its transaction.
what each station checks
- Ticker not taken
- The ticker is folded to a key before it is compared: case and spaces go, letters from other alphabets that look Latin become Latin, leetspeak becomes letters (P3P3 is PEPE), a doubled letter counts once, and a leading $ is dropped. If any Go-Pad coin or any pump.fun coin the feed has seen has the same key, it is NO-GO.
- Name not a copy
- The name is folded the same way, and the words a copy adds are dropped: official, real, the, original, OG, a version number. "Dog Wif Hat Official 2" is "Dog Wif Hat".
- Picture not a copy
- Each picture gets a fingerprint of its overall shape, which survives resizing, recompressing, recolouring, mirroring and inverting. Two pictures at 94% alike or more are the same picture. The line was measured: copies scored 97.9% to 100%, and unrelated art at most 89.9% across 780 pairs.
- Ticker not traded elsewhere
- DexScreener (every chain) and Jupiter (Solana) are asked at the moment you run the checks. A token with the same ticker key and at least $5,000 of liquidity, or Jupiter's verified mark, is NO-GO. If neither answers, the lamp is unread and the launch waits: silence never clears a ticker.
- One launch per wallet a day
- 1 per wallet per UTC day, counted in the database when the bundle is built, and given back if it does not land.
- One X account, one coin
- Coming soon. Linking an X account is not live yet, and this station says so instead of pretending to check.
what the bundle does and does not do
A Jito bundle never passes through the public mempool, so nobody sees the coin's address before it exists, and nobody can buy between the create and the fee lock: they run back to back in one slot. That protects the creation block, and only that. From the next slot the coin is public on pump.fun, and anyone can trade it.
the health score
Plain rules, no model: the same facts always give the same number. Start at 50, add each line, clamp to 0 to 100. A coin with fewer than 5 holders, the curve and Go-Pad's wallet left out, is too early and gets no number.
- Mint authority still set: -30. Revoked: 0.
- Freeze authority still set: -30. Revoked: 0.
- Top 10 holders, bonding curve excluded, over 40%: -20. 25% to 40%: -10. Under 25%: +10.
- Creator fees split 50/50 on chain with the admin revoked: +10. Anything else: -20.
- Every 1% of supply burned by buybacks: +2, at most +10.
- Bonding curve progress: one point per 10%, at most +10.
- Two or more of X, Telegram and website: +5. None: -5.
