Introduction

Ether.store is a launchpad for creating fixed-supply tokens with permanent Uniswap v4 liquidity on Robinhood Chain. Anyone can launch a token in a single transaction — no coding, no seed capital beyond gas — and it lists instantly and trades immediately.

Every launch mints a fixed supply, seeds 100% of it into a Uniswap v4 pool as permanently locked liquidity, and (optionally) turns on an on-chain tax whose proceeds are split — by rules enforced in the contract — between the creator, token holders, buybacks, and the pool itself.

What you can do

• Launch a token paired with native ETH, or with a tokenized stock (e.g. NVDA, TSLA).
• Choose your economics — starting market cap, total supply, and an optional buy/sell tax up to 10% per side.
• Route the tax on-chain across four buckets: creator earnings, holder dividends, buyback & burn, and added liquidity.
• Claim your fees — creators collect their share of the tax and the pool's trading fees at any time.
• Keep 90% of every fee — trading fees and taxes alike. The platform takes just 10%; the rest is yours.
• Reward holders automatically — dividends are pushed on-chain to eligible holders in the pair asset.
• Get paid in the asset you want — on ETH-paired launches, take your creator fees and pay holder dividends in a tokenized stock (NVDA, TSLA, …) or cbBTC instead of ETH, while the token still trades in ETH.

The standard model

By default a launch mints 1 billion tokens and opens at a ~$2,500 fully-diluted valuation, with all supply as single-sided liquidity in a permanently locked v4 position. Both the supply and the opening market cap are configurable at launch. The only cost to deploy is network gas.

How it works

A launch is a single on-chain transaction that does everything atomically — mint, pool, lock, configure taxes, and (optionally) your first buy.

The launch transaction

When you press Create coin, one call to the launchpad factory performs the following, all in the same block:

1. Mints the fixed supply. The full amount is created once; there is no mint function afterward.
2. Creates the Uniswap v4 pool for your token against the chosen pair asset (WETH by default, or a stock).
3. Seeds all supply as single-sided liquidity and permanently locks it in the pool position.
4. Wires the tax hook & fee splitter with your buy/sell tax and the four-way split.
5. Executes your dev buy (if you set one) as the first trade, before anyone else can react.

After launch

• The token is immediately tradable on the site's swap module and on Uniswap.
• It appears on aggregators like DexScreener as soon as they index the pool.
• Trading fees and any tax begin accruing right away; the creator can claim at any time.
• If you enabled holder dividends, they are pushed to eligible holders as fees are collected.

Plan your launch

A few decisions shape how your token opens and how value flows afterward. None are permanent business relationships — but most are fixed at launch, so it's worth thinking them through.

Decisions fixed at launch

Rules of thumb

• No-tax tokens are the simplest to market — 100% of trades go to traders, and the creator still earns the pool's trading fees.
• A modest tax (1–5%) funds ongoing rewards (dividends/burns) without scaring off buyers.
• A small dev buy (e.g. 1–2% of supply) secures your position in the opening block and signals commitment.
• Lower opening market caps give early buyers a cheaper entry; higher ones open richer.

Fees

Ether.store is designed to be transparent and creator-friendly. Here's a complete breakdown of every fee on the platform.

Token creation

Creating a token is free — we never charge you to launch. The only cost is the Robinhood Chain network gas to deploy your contract, which goes to the network, not to us.

Trading fees

Every token uses a 1% fee-tier Uniswap v4 pool. This fee is charged on every swap and accrues to the locked liquidity position, where it funds creator and protocol rewards.

Creator rewards split

Claiming rewards

Creators can claim accumulated rewards any time from their profile or a token's page. A claim:

• Collects all pending fees from the liquidity position.
• Converts any token-side fees to the pair asset (ETH, or the stock for RWA launches).
• Splits the total 90/10.
• Sends your share to your connected wallet.

On stock-paired (RWA) launches, rewards are paid in the pair asset — launch against NVDA and your rewards arrive as tokenized NVDA.

How we compare

How creator reward splits stack up across launchpads:

Launchpad	Creator share	Protocol share	Payout
✓ Ether.store	90%	10%	Great
Pons	70% minus launch fee	30%	Decent
🍌 Ape.store	50%	50%	Average
Noxa	35% ETH-side 0% token-side	65% ETH-side 20% token / 80% burn	Poor

No hidden fees

There are no listing fees, withdrawal fees, monthly/subscription fees, or hidden platform fees — only network gas and the transparent 90/10 split.

Gas fees

All transactions require Robinhood Chain gas, paid directly to the network (not collected by Ether.store). Gas varies with network congestion.

Creating a token

Everything on the create page, field by field.

Identity

• Image — a 1:1 image, up to 5 MB. Stored on IPFS.
• Name — up to 32 characters.
• Symbol — up to 10 characters.
• Description — up to 600 characters.
• Social links — Telegram, X, and a website (optional, must be https://). These can only be set at creation.

Paired asset

Choose what your token trades against. ETH is the default; you may also pick a tokenized stock, in which case the token is priced and paid out in that stock. See Stock-paired launches.

Advanced

The Advanced panel (collapsed by default) holds the token's economics:

• Starting market cap — pick $1k, $2.5k (default), $5k, or $10k.
• Custom token supply — total supply, from 1,000,000 to 500,000,000,000,000 (default 1 billion).
• Receive fees in — on ETH-paired launches, choose a tokenized stock or cbBTC to receive your creator fees and pay holder dividends in, instead of ETH (default: same as pair asset). See Holder dividends.

Fee splitting

Set an optional buy and sell tax (0–10% each) and divide it across four buckets that must total 100%: Creator, Holder dividends, Buyback & burn, and Liquidity. Leave the tax at 0% for a plain token. See How taxes work.

Initial buy (dev buy)

Optionally buy a slice of your own token as the first trade. The quick buttons (1% / 2% / 5%) fill the exact amount needed to receive that percentage of supply — including the pool fee, price impact, and any buy tax — so the amount shown is what actually lands in your wallet. See Anti-snipe protection.

Create

Connect your wallet, press Create coin, and approve the transaction. The only cost is gas.

Stock-paired launches

Instead of pairing against ETH, you can pair your token against a tokenized stock — so it trades, prices, and pays out in that asset.

How it differs from an ETH launch

• The pair asset is the stock's token (an 18-decimal ERC-20) instead of WETH.
• The dev buy is paid in the stock, and requires approving the factory to pull it (native ETH launches pay with the transaction value directly).
• Creator fees and holder dividends are denominated and paid in the pair asset — i.e. the stock.
• Pricing on the site is converted to USD using a live feed for that pair asset.

How taxes work

A launch can carry an optional tax on every trade. It is capped and routed entirely on-chain — the split you choose is enforced by the contract, not by a backend.

The tax

• Set independently for buys and sells, from 0% to 10% each.
• The 10% ceiling is a hard limit enforced in the tax hook — a transaction that tries to exceed it reverts.
• Buy tax is taken on the token side; sell tax is taken on the pair-asset side.

The four-way split

The split applies to all fees your token collects — the pool's 1% trading fee, plus any tax you set on top. That total is divided across four buckets that must sum to exactly 100%:

Enforced on-chain

Both the tax ceiling and the requirement that the split totals 100% are checked by the smart contracts at launch time. There is no way — through the site or a raw transaction — to deploy a token with a tax above 10% or a split that doesn't add up.

Holder dividends

The dividend bucket distributes a share of every taxed trade to token holders, automatically and on-chain, in the pair asset.

How distribution works

• Each token gets its own dividend tracker (a lightweight cloned contract) that accounts for every holder's share.
• Dividends accrue as fees are collected and are pushed out to holders — holders don't have to claim manually.
• Payouts are proportional to holdings and are denominated in the pair asset (ETH, or the paired stock) — unless you choose a different payout asset (see below).

Eligibility

To avoid dust payments to hundreds of tiny wallets, a holder must hold at least a small minimum balance (worth roughly $5) to be eligible. Contracts — including the pool itself — are excluded. The threshold is kept near that dollar value even as price drifts.

Receive fees in a different asset

For ETH-paired launches, you can choose to have your creator fees and your holders' dividends paid in a different asset — a tokenized stock (NVDA, TSLA, SPY, …) or cbBTC — instead of ETH. The token still trades in ETH; this only changes what you and your holders receive.

• Pick it on the create page under Advanced → “Receive fees in.” The default is “Same as pair asset” (paid in ETH).
• On each payout, the ETH that would go to the creator and dividend buckets is automatically swapped into your chosen asset, then distributed. Holders earn real yield in that asset.
• The buyback & burn leg and the platform's cut stay in the pair asset.
• Available for ETH-paired launches only, and limited to assets with deep on-chain liquidity. Stock-paired launches always pay in their pair asset.

Buyback & burn

The burn bucket uses its share of the tax to buy the token back from the market and permanently destroy it.

• Collected fees allocated to this bucket buy the token and send it to the dead address.
• The burned supply is gone forever — total supply only ever goes down.
• Burns are visible on-chain and surfaced in the token's activity as burn events.

Single-sided liquidity

All of a token's supply is seeded into its Uniswap v4 pool as a single-sided position and permanently locked. This is what makes a launch instantly tradable with no seed capital.

How the pool opens

• The entire fixed supply is placed as token-only liquidity in a range above the opening price.
• As people buy, price walks up through that range; as they sell, it walks back down.
• The position is locked permanently — the liquidity can't be pulled.

The opening price floor

To seed liquidity as pure token (with no pair asset required from the creator), the pool's liquidity begins one tick-spacing above the nominal opening price. In practice this means the very first trades enter at a price just above the headline market cap, and price can't fall below that liquidity edge through normal selling. This is standard behavior for a single-sided v4 launch.

Liquidity bucket

If you allocate part of the tax to the Liquidity bucket, those proceeds are added back into the locked pool over time, deepening it and reducing price impact for future trades.

Anti-snipe protection

How launches are protected from sniper bots in the opening blocks. (For what trades cost, see Fees.)

How it works

• Dev buy lands first. Your optional opening buy is built into the launch transaction, so it executes before any bot can react — and the pool doesn't exist until the launch completes, so nothing can buy ahead of it.
• Max-wallet cap. For the first 15 minutes, no wallet other than the creator may hold more than 2% of supply, so no single sniper can accumulate a large position and dump on your community.
• Enforced on-chain & self-expiring. The cap lives in the token contract (no frontend can bypass it) and releases automatically after the window, measured in wall-clock time.

Creator fee claims

Creators keep 90% of the fees their token generates — the creator share of any tax plus the pool's trading fees — and can claim them at any time.

What you earn

• 90% of the pool's trading fees accrued to the locked position — you earn this on every swap even if your token has no tax.
• Plus your creator bucket of any tax you set.
• Paid in the pair asset — ETH, or the paired stock.
• The platform's only deduction is a flat 10% off the top.

How to claim

• Open your token's page (or your Profile) and use the Claim action in the creator-rewards box.
• A claim runs a fee round: it harvests pool fees and distributes them — paying the creator, funding dividends and burns per your split.
• When the creator claims, the round is sent by the platform wallet, so your own address never shows up as a seller on trackers. Funds always go to the registered creator regardless of who triggers it.

Community takeover

If a token's original creator has gone inactive, anyone can request a community takeover (CTO). If approved, the token's creator wallet is reassigned, so all future creator fees route to the new address.

How to request one

Start at ether.store/takeover. It's a short three-step flow:

1. Find the token — search by name, symbol, or contract address and select it.
2. Enter the details — the new creator wallet address and a contact handle (Telegram or similar) so the team can reach you.
3. Explain & pay — write a short reason, then sign and pay. You sign an off-chain message that proves you control the requesting wallet (this moves no funds), and pay a $50 application fee in ETH to the platform. The fee is non-refundable and does not guarantee approval.

What happens next

• Each request is reviewed manually by the team — it is not automatic.
• If approved, the token's creator wallet is updated on-chain in the rewards registry, and from that point on the new address receives the creator fee share and can claim it.
• The token's supply, liquidity lock, taxes, and fee split are unchanged — a takeover only changes who receives the creator fees.

Smart contract architecture

The launchpad is a small suite of contracts on top of the Uniswap v4 singleton.

Fee routing & data flow

Taxes are captured by the hook during swaps and accumulate in the per-token splitter. A fee round harvests the pool's LP fees and calls the splitter, which converts to the pair asset, takes the platform's 10% cut, then pays the creator, funds the dividend tracker, executes buyback-and-burn, and tops up liquidity — according to the split fixed at launch. The site reads live pool state directly from the chain for prices and market caps.

Public API

Every token launched on Ether.store gets a free, public, read-only stats API — no key, no signup. Power your token's community site, dashboard, or bot with the same live on-chain data the token pages run on.

Endpoint

GET https://ether.store/api/token-stats/<contract address>

Replace <contract address> with your token's contract address. It works from any website (CORS is open to all origins), server, or script — no API key. Responses are cached for about 5 minutes per token.

Example

fetch("https://ether.store/api/token-stats/0x68264a1fb150945dc88b1e34a5c4bae40eff1f9d")
  .then(r => r.json())

Notes

• Only tokens launched on Ether.store are served — any other address returns 404.
• feeShare totals come from the automated distribution bot and read as zeros for tokens that don't use fee-share.
• burnedSupply is chain truth — every buyback-and-burn lands at the dead address.
• Numbers refresh about every 5 minutes; faster polling just returns the cached snapshot.

Contract addresses

The launchpad's core contracts on Robinhood Chain (chain ID 4663).

Limits & validation

The constraints applied to a launch, and where they're enforced.

The economics that matter for holders' safety — the tax ceiling, the split total, the permanent liquidity lock, and the max-wallet window — are all enforced by the contracts, so they hold regardless of how a transaction is constructed.

Security

What the contracts guarantee, independent of the website.

• Liquidity is permanently locked. The launch position can't be withdrawn — there is no rug vector on the pool itself.
• Fixed supply. The token has no mint function after launch; supply can only decrease via burns.
• Tax is capped on-chain at 10% per side, enforced in the hook — a token can't be launched or later reconfigured above that.
• The fee split is enforced on-chain and must total 100%; the creator can't secretly reroute holders' or burns' share.
• Anti-snipe is on-chain — the max-wallet cap during the opening window is enforced by the token contract.
• Prices shown are read from the chain. Market caps and balances on the site are computed from live pool state, not from self-reported values.

General

Ether.store whitepaper

A token launch platform on Robinhood Chain that lets creators deploy fixed-supply ERC-20 tokens with automatic, permanently-locked liquidity on Uniswap v4 — in a single transaction, with no seed capital beyond gas.

1. Introduction

Ether.store enables creators to deploy ERC-20 tokens with automatic liquidity provisioning on Uniswap v4. Every launch mints a fixed supply, seeds all of it into a permanently locked pool position, and — at the creator's option — turns on an on-chain tax whose proceeds are split, by rules enforced in the contracts, between the creator, token holders, buybacks, and the pool itself. Deployment costs only network gas.

Platform benefits

• Free token deployment — only pay network gas fees.
• Instant trading — tokens are immediately tradeable on Uniswap.
• Creator rewards — earn 90% of all trading fees (and 90% of any tax).
• Optional tax — run a clean zero-tax token, or a 0–10% tax routed on-chain four ways.
• Optional dev buy — purchase tokens during deployment, sniper-protected.
• Permanently locked liquidity — LP positions can never be withdrawn, ensuring perpetual trading liquidity.
• Launch protection — the dev buy is atomic within the launch (always first), and an on-chain max-wallet cap limits any wallet to 2% of supply for the first 15 minutes, so snipers can't front-run the community or grab a large position to dump.
• Built-in bridge — move ETH in and out of Robinhood Chain in seconds from Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, or Optimism, or convert SOL to tradeable ETH; non-custodial and routed by Relay for a few cents per transfer.

2. Architecture overview

The launchpad is a small suite of purpose-built contracts on top of the Uniswap v4 singleton. A single factory call assembles the whole system for each token; per-token pieces (the fee splitter and dividend tracker) are cloned cheaply so each launch gets its own isolated accounting.

3. Launch flow

Deployment process

A launch is a single transaction that, atomically in one block:

1. Calls LaunchpadFactory.launch() with the token parameters (name, symbol, pair asset, supply, tax, split, optional dev buy).
2. Deploys a new LaunchToken (ERC-20) with the chosen fixed supply.
3. Creates the Uniswap v4 pool (token / pair asset) at the 1% fee tier and initializes its price.
4. Seeds 100% of supply as single-sided liquidity (token-only, no seed capital) and permanently locks the position.
5. Deploys and wires the per-token FeeSplitter and RewardTracker, and configures the TaxHook.
6. Executes the optional dev buy as the first trade, before anyone else can react.

Launch protection (anti-sniper)

Every token gives creators and their communities a fair start ahead of sniper bots. Because the protection lives in the token contract itself, it cannot be bypassed by any frontend, router, or aggregator.

• Dev buy lands first: the dev buy executes atomically inside the launch transaction, so it always fills before anyone else can trade — and the pool does not exist until the launch completes, so no bot can buy ahead of it. The dev buy is also exempt from the wallet cap below.
• Max-wallet cap during launch: for the first 15 minutes (default), no wallet may hold more than 2% of supply — any buy or transfer that would exceed it reverts, while sells and ordinary transfers are unaffected. This stops a sniper from accumulating a large position to dump on the community, even after buys are open.
• Self-expiring & time-based: the cap is measured in wall-clock seconds (block.timestamp), so it releases automatically after the window and the token trades as a standard ERC-20 thereafter.

4. Fee collection flow

Trading fees and any tax accrue continuously; a fee round harvests them and pays everyone out on-chain:

1. Users trade on the Uniswap v4 pool (1% swap fee); any tax is captured by the hook and accumulates in the per-token splitter.
2. Anyone can trigger a round — a creator's round is sent by the platform wallet so the creator never shows as a seller on trackers.
3. The round harvests the pool's LP fees and calls the splitter.
4. The splitter converts fees to the pair asset, takes the platform's 10% cut, then distributes the remaining 90% per the split fixed at launch.
5. 90% → the token (creator + your chosen dividend / burn / liquidity buckets)  •  10% → platform.

5. Fee distribution

The platform's only take is a flat 10% off the top of all collected fees. The other 90% flows to the token — by default entirely to the creator, or shared with holders and the pool if the creator allocates part of the tax to the dividend, burn, and liquidity buckets.

6. Stock-paired launches (RWAs)

In addition to classic ETH-paired launches, Ether.store supports launching tokens paired directly against Robinhood Chain's tokenized stocks and ETFs — real-world assets (RWAs) such as NVDA, TSLA, AAPL, and others. A stock-paired token trades against its stock the same way a classic token trades against ETH: same Uniswap v4 pool, same 1% fee tier, same locked liquidity.

• Same architecture, different quote asset. The launch creates a real v4 pool between the new token and the chosen stock. Tokenized stocks are standard 18-decimal ERC-20s, so nothing about the pool mechanics changes.
• Uniform launch size, computed live. The starting pool price is computed at launch from the stock's live on-chain price, so tokens paired with a cheap stock and an expensive ETF both begin at the same USD valuation — no manual recalibration as prices drift.
• Trading in the stock. Buyers pay in the stock and sellers receive the stock; the trade panel shows your stock balance.
• Rewards in the stock. Creator rewards work exactly like classic launches — 90% of fees to the creator — but are paid in the pair asset. Launch against NVDA and your rewards arrive as tokenized NVDA. Holder dividends and buyback-and-burn are fully supported and denominated in the stock.

See the Stock-paired launches section for the full walkthrough.

7. Public API

Every token launched on Ether.store gets a free, public, read-only stats API — no key, no signup, open CORS. One request returns live price, market cap, ATH, supply and burn figures, holder count, and fee-share statistics.

GET https://ether.store/api/token-stats/<contract address>

Amounts are denominated in the token's pair asset (ETH for classic launches, the stock for RWA launches — indicated by the pairAsset field), with USD conversions included. The site also exposes its live chain configuration and canonical contract addresses at /api/chain-config.

See the full example response and field-by-field reference in the Public API section.

8. Deployed contract addresses

Core contracts on Robinhood Chain (chain ID 4663). Per-token contracts (splitter, dividend tracker) are created fresh per launch and listed on each token's page. Always confirm the current values via /api/chain-config.
