Every launch option

Skip the advanced section entirely and you launch with: supply 1,000,000,000, the default opening market cap, no dev buy, no bundle, swap fee 1.00%, fee model pay me (your fees accrue to you in the chain’s native coin), paired with the native coin, and on BSC the PancakeSwap Infinity venue. Every section below changes one of those knobs.

The options here describe the direct-to-pool launch form shared by Robinhood Chain, BNB Smart Chain, Base, Ethereum and Arc: no bonding curve, no graduation, the full supply in a hooked pool from block one. Where an option exists only on some chains, or only on the curve venues (Solana’s native Meteora curve today, Ronin once it opens), the section says so. Solana’s own knobs are on Chains & venues.

BNB Smart Chain is the one chain that carries three pool venues, so its launch form shows a “Liquidity venue” control under the chain tiles, listed as PancakeSwap V3, Uniswap V4 (the default) and PancakeSwap Infinity. All three are the same direct-to-pool model with the same launcher, bundler and router ABIs; the pick decides which address set the launch goes to and, on PancakeSwap V3, how the creator earns (a share of the pool’s LP fees instead of a per-trade fee). Like the chain, it is permanent. Deep-link a venue with /launch?chain=bsc&venue=v3, …&venue=v4 or …&venue=infinity. Single-venue chains (Robinhood, Base, Ethereum, Arc) never show the control.

Supply is cosmetic in one sense - on a direct-to-pool chain the whole of it becomes the pool’s liquidity whatever the number, and on a curve venue the curve shape and the fraction sold before graduation (~73.3%) are identical at every supply - and real in another: it sets the per-token price your buyers see. A 69B-supply token opens at a much smaller unit price than a 100M one at the same market cap. Pick the number whose price-per-token feels right for your audience; the economics do not change. Same bounds on every EVM chain and both BSC venues.

You choose the market cap your token opens at, in USD. On the direct-to-pool chains this sets the pool’s opening price: the launcher derives the starting tick from your supply and target, deposits the full supply just below it, and the first buy pays that price. The form converts your USD target with the live price of the chain’s native coin (ETH, BNB or USDC) and shows “Opens at $X” before you commit. On a curve venue the same number sets the curve’s initial virtual reserve (y0) instead.

On a curve venue the curve's shape is fixed - the graduation target is always three times the opening reserve - so a higher opening market cap also means a proportionally larger raise and a higher graduation market cap. At the default reserve of 2 the token opens around 1.82 of market cap in the native coin, raises 4 on the curve, and graduates at nine times its opening cap. The full derivation is in The bonding curve. A direct-to-pool token has no raise and no graduation: the pool simply opens at the price you chose, and the market takes it from there.

You pick the rate you earn on every swap - buyers and sellers alike, for the life of the token on the direct-to-pool chains (the fee hook charges it on every trade in the official pool; the pool’s own LP fee is 0), and during bonding on a curve venue. It is immutable after launch: the contract writes it exactly once, and no admin, creator or upgrade can raise it for a live token. The same tiers apply on Robinhood, Base, Ethereum, Arc and both BSC venues; Solana’s native curve has its own fixed model, described on Fees & earnings.

The platform's cut rides on top of your rate, and it is flat: a 0.30% of volume platform fee and a 0.05% of volume referral rail. So a trader pays your rate + 0.35% and you keep your whole rate - the platform's share does not grow when you move up a tier:

A higher rate earns you more per trade but taxes every trader, including you. Most launches sit at 1%. The complete fee system - including what happens if you skip this option - is in Fees & earnings.

With anti-sniper on (the default), no wallet's balance may exceed 2% of supply while the token is bonding. Combined with the atomic dev buy, this is what makes a fair launch enforceable rather than aspirational: a sniper cannot sweep the bottom of your curve into one wallet.

With it off, the max-wallet check is relaxed. Whales can accumulate freely - which some communities prefer - but the concentration risk is yours to own. The dev-buy cap applies either way, and the setting is shown on the token page so buyers can see which rules a token launched under. After graduation there is no wallet cap in any case; the open market has no such rule.

An optional first buy executed atomically inside the launch transaction, capped at 20% of supply on-chain (the form’s slider stops at 19%), funded in the chain’s native coin (or the quote asset of a custom pair). Covered in detail in Launching a token; the short version: nobody can front-run it, the normal swap fee applies, it is slippage-guarded, and it is publicly disclosed in the launch event. Available on every chain and both BSC venues; the opening bundle (several wallets buying in the launch transaction) sits next to it and adds the opening-bundle fee.

Your share of the swap fee accrues in the chain’s native coin (ETH on Robinhood and Base, BNB on BSC, USDC on Arc) or, for a custom pair, in the quote asset. You decide at launch where it goes, permanently:

After graduation, the locked LP position also earns fees in your token itself. Your share of those routes per a second, independent choice (there are no token-side fees before graduation):

By default a token is paired with the chain's native coin - you buy with ETH, BNB or USDC, the price is quoted in it, and the pool is TOKEN / native coin. On Robinhood Chain and Base you can instead launch a custom LP pair against a curated ERC-20: buys, sells, your fees, the dev buy and the opening bundle are all denominated in that asset.

• The quote list is deliberately curated by the platform, not open: a pool holding a misbehaving token (rebasing, clawback, fee-on-transfer) would break every holder, so each asset is admitted individually with its own bounds and a live price feed where one exists. A pasted custom ERC-20 on Robinhood goes through a verification step first.
• The launch fee stays in the native coin regardless of the quote asset.
• The fee model rides on the pair: Pay me, Pay holders (paid the quote asset directly, no conversion) and Buy back & burn all work, denominated in the quote asset.
• The quote asset is, like everything else here, fixed for the life of the token.

Every admitted asset and its address is listed on Supported assets; the pair mechanics are on Custom LP pairs.
