Liquidity Provision
Understanding liquidity in the InkySwap ecosystem
InkyPump uses an automated bonding curve mechanism that ensures permanent liquidity without traditional LP tokens.
Liquidity Mechanisms
Bonding Curve Liquidity
mechanism:
- Automated price discovery:
P = a * e^(bx) - Permanent liquidity locking
- No LP tokens needed
- ETH/Token reserves automatically balanced
Liquidity is mathematically guaranteed by the bonding curve formula
Understanding the Bonding Curve
1
Initial Setup
distribution:
- Initial supply: 20% (200M tokens)
- Funding supply: 80% (800M tokens)
- ETH reserves automatically managed
2
Price Discovery
pricing:
- Price increases with supply
- Automated by smart contract
- No manual price setting needed
3
Trading Mechanics
mechanics:
- Buy: Send ETH, receive tokens
- Sell: Send tokens, receive ETH
- Price calculated automatically

Common Questions
How is liquidity guaranteed?
How is liquidity guaranteed?
The bonding curve mathematical formula ensures there’s always ETH available for token sales.
Do I need to provide liquidity?
Do I need to provide liquidity?
During the initial bonding curve phase, liquidity is automatically managed by the smart contract.However, after tokens are fully bonded, you can provide liquidity to TOKEN/WETH pairs through the standard Uniswap router integration.
How is price determined?
How is price determined?
Price is calculated using the formula
P = a * e^(bx) where x is the current supply.Can my token be listed on InkyPump?
Can my token be listed on InkyPump?
Yes, if your project meets our security requirements by burning or locking LP tokens. Contact the InkySwap team to start the whitelisting process.
