Fair Meme Launch Model on Berachain
From FTO to Pot2Pump: Continuous Innovation in Meme Launches
While the FTO model fits perfectly into Berachain’s PoL, it wasn’t entirely suited for meme tokens, which are risky and often lack utility. Allocating 50% of LP to the token deployer is not ideal for meme tokens. However, we have adjusted this incentive to be much higher than Pump.Fun and its forks, offering a more fair and exciting launch experience.
Pot2Pump combines all the advantages of the FTO model, with specific adjustments for meme tokens. Here are the key features of the Pot2Pump model:
Burning 40% of LP Tokens: Before entering the DEX phase, Pot2Pump burns 40% of the LP tokens. This reduces circulating liquidity, increasing token scarcity and potentially driving up prices post-launch, offering better returns to early participants.
Refund all funds if launch is not successful: If a launch fails to meet its fundraising goals within 24 hours, users can pay a gas fee and get a refund on their deposit. This ensures users don’t lose money, unlike Pump.Fun, where failed launches offer no refunds.
Lower Entry Barriers: Once the market cap reaches $20k, liquidity is added to the DEX, with support for single-sided liquidity. This further boosts the token price using the x*y=k model.
Protection Against Bots: Pot2Pump protects regular users by removing the early-stage trading advantages bots have. This levels the playing field, allowing all participants to benefit.
Higher Token Deployer Rewards: Pot2Pump allocates 5% LP token incentives to token deployers, and this incentive is flexible. Unlike Pump.Fun, where token deployers must pay a fee, Pot2Pump offers a more rewarding and adjustable structure.
The combination of low-risk participation, real liquidity, and a refund mechanism makes Pot2Pump a far more successful launch model than Pump.Fun.
If the market cap reaches $69k (the Pump.Fun threshold for Dex deployment) when reaching Henlo Dex, Pot2Pump early participants will have experienced tripling in the initial price. This demonstrated a substantial reward, compared to Pump.Fun where 70% of participants end up with losses.
