All new tokens on InkyPump are V2. V2 tokens trade in two phases: on the bonding curve while they raise their target, and on a Uniswap V4 pool after they bond. For trading the older V1 tokens, see Legacy.
Two phases of trading
| Phase | Where it happens | Fee | Counterparty |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curve | InkyPump V2 hook (buy / sell) | 2 percent | The bonding curve |
| Pool | Uniswap V4 pool with InkyPump hook | 0.1 percent | Other traders and the pool reserves |
Curve phase
While a token is on the curve, the price moves along the linear bonding curve set at launch. Every buy moves the price up. Every sell moves it down. The 2 percent trade fee is taken from the ETH side of every trade. You trade by callingbuy or sell on the InkyPump V2 hook. The UI handles this for you.
See Buy and Sell for the inputs and how the preview works.
Bond event
When the cumulative raise reaches the target, the next buy that pushes it over the line triggers the bond. The contract automatically creates the V4 pool, seeds it with the raised ETH and the liquidity portion of the token supply, and routes future trades to the pool. This happens in a single transaction. There is no creator action required at bonding. It is automatic.Pool phase
After bonding, the token trades on a Uniswap V4 pool. The pool fee is 0.1 percent. The 2 percent curve fee no longer applies. Swaps happen through the Uniswap Universal Router. The InkyPump UI keeps the same trade page, but underneath it now routes through the router and the V4 pool. See Post-Bond Pool for how the pool works and how to swap against it.What you pay in fees
| Phase | Fee | Goes to |
|---|---|---|
| Curve | 1 percent protocol + 1 percent variable | Treasury, creator, buyback (depending on creator split) |
| Pool | 0.1 percent | Routes through the hook to creator and buyback |
