Six steps from an idea to the weekly Index — with the parts that protect you enforced by code, not promises.
You give us three things: the token's name, ticker and image, plus the SOL for your dev buy. That's the whole form.
The dev buy is hard-capped at 3% of supply — the slider physically stops there. You can take less, or none. You never see or touch the contract address at this stage, because it doesn't exist yet.
The mint keypair is generated inside the launch engine and never leaves it. Not the dev, not us-on-Twitter, not a Telegram group — nobody holds the CA before launch.
This kills the classic scam where insiders get the address early and load up before the public. On index there is no "early". The address is revealed to everyone in the same second it goes live.
Creation and dev buy land in one atomic transaction — nothing can squeeze between them.
The engine fires token creation and the dev buy as a single bundled transaction. By the time any bot sees the token exists, block 0 has happened.
Bundlers' whole edge is beating the crowd to the first block. Here the first block is structurally occupied, so the best any sniper gets is the same curve price as every other buyer.
Buys walk the price up the curve · sells walk it back down
Every token opens at a $20k market cap on the bonding curve — no near-zero entry for bots to hoover up. From there the curve itself is the stabiliser: aggressive buying makes each next token dearer, aggressive selling makes each next sale worth less.
Overbuying and overselling both get priced in automatically, trade by trade. And at this stage index takes 0% — no platform fee on the curve.
When a token's curve fills to a $100k market cap, it graduates: liquidity migrates into a Raydium pool and the LP is burned, so it can never be pulled.
Only now does index start earning — a 1% share on the graduated pool. If a token never gets there, we never made a penny on it. Our incentive is your token working, not your launch fee.
Post-graduation fees flow three ways: the weekly Index — hold $INDEX and every Monday you're distributed the top five tokens launched here, rebalanced by volume; each token's war chest, which buys back into heavy selling; and points for active traders.
No new supply is ever minted to pay rewards — everything is funded by fees that only exist because tokens graduated.
From a normal wallet, like anyone else, at public curve prices — yes. What they can't do is get priority: the only privileged buy is the single ≤3% that rides in block 0, and it's visible on-chain forever.
The launch transaction is atomic — create and dev buy only, nothing else fits inside it. The engine's wallets hold no token allocation, and every launch transaction is public and auditable on-chain.
Low starts are sniper food: bots buy the first block at near-zero and dump on the crowd at 10–25×. Starting at $20k compresses that edge to the point it isn't worth the gas. It also means graduated tokens open on Raydium with real liquidity.
A weekly distribution of the current top five tokens launched on the platform, weighted by graduated-pool volume and rebalanced every Monday 00:00 UTC. It's paid from fees, never from minting.
