FAQ

Frequently asked questions about the TRIBE MemeLaunchpad.

General Questions

What is TRIBE MemeLaunchpad?

TRIBE MemeLaunchpad is a platform that enables instant deployment of meme tokens with bonding curve pricing, automated liquidity migration to DEX, and social features.

How does the bonding curve work?

The bonding curve uses a quadratic formula where price increases as supply increases. 70% of tokens are available via the curve, and 30% are held for liquidity migration.

What happens when the bonding curve completes?

When the curve reaches its maximum (70% tokens distributed), the token automatically migrates liquidity to a DEX. The 30% held tokens plus all collected ETH are used to create a DEX liquidity pair.

Token Creation

How do I create a token?

Call the createToken(name, symbol) function with your desired token name and symbol. The token will be deployed and registered with the launchpad.

What are the requirements for creating a token?

  • Provide a unique name and symbol
  • Pay gas fees for deployment
  • No upfront costs beyond gas

Can I customize my token?

Token name and symbol are set at creation and cannot be changed. The token follows standard ERC-20 functionality.

Trading

How do I buy tokens?

Call buyTokens(token, minTokensOut) with TRUST. The function calculates tokens based on the current bonding curve price.

How do I sell tokens?

First approve the launchpad to spend your tokens, then call sellTokens(token, amount, minEthOut). Tokens are burned and TRUST is returned.

What are the fees?

  • 2% fee on all buy/sell transactions
  • Fees are automatically sent to the treasury
  • 0.025 TRUST fee for posting comments

Can I set custom slippage?

Yes, you specify minTokensOut when buying and minEthOut when selling. The transaction will revert if slippage exceeds your tolerance.

Creator Rules

Why are tokens locked initially?

Tokens start locked to ensure creator commitment. The creator must buy 2% of the total supply to unlock public trading.

What is the creator purchase limit?

Creators can purchase a maximum of 20% of the curve supply to ensure fair distribution.

Can the creator unlock the token without buying?

No, the creator must purchase 2% of the total supply to unlock the token. This ensures creator has skin in the game.

Liquidity Migration

When does liquidity migration happen?

Migration occurs automatically when the bonding curve completes (all 70% curve tokens distributed).

What happens to my tokens after migration?

After migration, tokens trade on the DEX using standard AMM mechanics. The bonding curve is no longer active.

Can slippage fees be applied after token migrates to DEX?

No. After migration, trading follows standard DEX rules and fees. The launchpad's 2% slippage fee no longer applies.

Who controls the LP tokens?

LP tokens remain in the launchpad contract after migration. They can be managed by the contract admin if needed.

Integration

Can I integrate the DEX using ABI only?

Yes. ABI integration is recommended for frontend applications. You can use ethers.js, viem, or Web3.js with the contract ABI.

Should router be deployed separately?

Yes. Keep DEX integration separate from the launchpad. The launchpad interacts with an existing DEX router contract.

What DEX routers are supported?

Any router that implements the Uniswap V2 router interface with addLiquidityETH() function is supported.

Technical

What blockchain networks are supported?

The launchpad can be deployed on any EVM-compatible network. The current configuration uses chain ID 1155, but this can be customized.

How are prices calculated?

Prices use a quadratic formula: price = INITIAL_PRICE * (1 + (supply/stepSize)^2)

Are there gas optimizations?

The contract uses standard gas optimization techniques including:

  • Efficient storage patterns
  • Minimal external calls
  • Batch operations where possible

How do I monitor token events?

Listen to contract events:

  • TokenCreated - New token deployed
  • TokensBought - Purchase transaction
  • TokensSold - Sale transaction
  • TokenUnlocked - Creator unlocked token
  • LiquidityMigrated - Migration to DEX
  • CommentAdded - New comment posted

Security

Is the contract audited?

Check the latest audit reports in the project repository. Always verify contract addresses before interacting.

What security features are in place?

  • Reentrancy guards
  • Creator buy limits
  • Unlock enforcement
  • Valid token checks
  • Exact fee checks
  • Router validation
  • Slippage protection

Can tokens be rug pulled?

The unlock requirement (creator must buy 2%) and purchase limits help prevent rug pulls. However, always DYOR (Do Your Own Research) before investing.

Comments

How do I add a comment?

Call addComment(token, text) with 0.025 ETH. The comment is stored on-chain permanently.

Can I edit or delete comments?

No, comments are immutable once posted. They are permanently stored on-chain.

Are comments moderated?

Comments are not moderated by the contract. They are stored as-is on-chain.

Troubleshooting

Transaction fails with "Token is locked"

The token creator hasn't purchased 2% yet. Only the creator can buy during the locked phase.

Transaction fails with "Slippage too high"

The price moved more than your slippage tolerance. Increase your minTokensOut or minEthOut value.

Migration fails

Check:

  • Router is set correctly
  • Sufficient tokens and ETH available
  • Router approval is in place
  • Gas limits are sufficient

Can't find my token

Use getAllTokens() to get a list of all tokens, or search by creator address using events.
