# Introduction

> What InkyPump is, how V2 works, and where to go next.

InkyPump is a token launch platform on Ink mainnet (chain 57073). You can create a token, raise ETH through a bonding curve, and have it bond to a Uniswap V4 pool when the curve fills. The platform is at [inkypump.com](https://inkypump.com).

## Versions

InkyPump V2 is the current launch system. It launched on Ink mainnet with a flat 2 percent fee, configurable curve gain, captcha based anti-snipe, on chain referral attribution, and bonding to Uniswap V4.

V1 is the original launch system. It is deprecated. V1 tokens still trade through their original contracts and Uniswap V2 pairs. For V1 specifics, see [Legacy](/legacy/overview).

## How V2 works in two minutes

1. A creator launches a token. They pick a target raise (1 to 5 ETH), a curve gain multiplier (1x to 21x), a creator fee split, and an optional anti-snipe window
2. The contract deploys the token and opens trading on a linear bonding curve
3. Traders buy and sell on the curve. Every trade pays 2 percent total fees (1 percent protocol, 1 percent variable to creator and buyback)
4. When the curve raises the target, the contract bonds the token to a Uniswap V4 pool with a 0.1 percent fee
5. Trading continues on the V4 pool. The creator keeps earning through the hook on every V4 swap
