A launchpad and a trading terminal on Elysium, Kinetiq’s chain on Hyperliquid’s HyperEVM, with every coin paired against HYPE. Every token has a fixed supply, no mint function and no owner. Your wallet signs everything; Arka never holds your assets and cannot move them.
A launch costs — and mints 1B tokens in one transaction. 70% of the supply — 700M — is sold by the bonding curve; the remaining 300M is held back for the pool the token graduates into.
There is no second allocation, no team wallet the contract knows about, and no way to mint more afterwards. The token has no owner and nothing about it can be changed once it exists.
The launch fee is deliberately small. It exists to make spamming launches cost something rather than to be revenue — the platform earns on trades, so the right number is the smallest one that still hurts a bot.
Every one of these is frozen at launch. None of them can be changed afterwards, by the creator or by us.
A ticker belongs to the first coin launched with it, compared without regard to case, so there is one $PEPE here and not a feed of them. The chain’s own majors — HYPE, KNTQ, USDC, BTC and the rest — are reserved and cannot be launched at all. The form checks as you type; the launchpad refuses the transaction either way.
A creator is paid on every trade of their coin for as long as they keep at least half of what they bought on the curve — every curve buy of theirs counts, not only the one in the launch. Their wallet balance counts as kept, and so does anything still locked from the launch buy; moving tokens to another wallet counts as selling them.
Once they are below that line, anyone can call the launchpad’s forfeit on them — the button is on the token’s page. From then on the creator’s share of every fee, their own tax included, goes to the coin’s holders, on the curve and in the pool, permanently. What they had already earned stays theirs. A creator who bought nothing at launch has no stake to dump and can never be forfeited.
A new token trades against a constant-product curve held by the launchpad: price rises as supply is bought and falls as it is sold, by the same formula in both directions. There is no order book, no counterparty to find, and no way for the market to be empty.
Because the formula is public and depends only on how much has been sold, the quote in the trade panel is computed as you type rather than fetched. What it shows is the best case: the contract rounds in the curve’s favour at every step, so treat the figure as a preview and the minimum you set as the promise.
The moment a coin graduates, its pool charges a surcharge on top of the trading fee: 20% on the first trade, falling to zero across five seconds. It makes racing the pool open worthless to a bot without costing a human anything, who could not have got there anyway, and every bit of it goes into that coin’s own buyback, so a sniper ends up funding the coin they front-ran. Nobody is exempt, the creator included.
The curve closes once it has raised 15.00 HYPE. At that moment the raised amount and the held-back 300M tokens are placed into a PancakeSwap Infinity pool and the liquidity position is burned — not locked, not vested, burned. Nobody can withdraw it, including us.
The pool opens at exactly the price the curve ended at, down to the last representable tick, so graduation is not a step in the chart. From then on the token trades in that pool, and Arka reaches it through a router of ours rather than sending you elsewhere.
Graduated tokens get 30% of supply into the pool. Pons puts in 28.57%, pump.fun around 20%, so ours are harder to move in either direction — and the position is burned rather than locked, which is a different promise entirely.
Two separate charges, and it is worth keeping them apart. The platform fee is ours and is identical on every token we launch. The creator tax is set by whoever launched the token, is zero by default, and is paid entirely to them.
On the curve — 0.80%
In the pool — 0.70%
Those percentages are shares of the fee, not of the trade. The rate drops at graduation because the venue changes: on the curve we are the whole market, and in the pool PancakeSwap Infinity does the work while our hook takes a smaller cut.
In the pool it keeps dropping as the coin grows. Past 10x the price the pool opened at, the standing rate is at most 0.50%; past 50x, at most 0.30%. A large coin competes with plain pools charging a fraction of a percent, and a fee that never moved would push its volume there. The steps only ever go down, and the creator’s tax is not part of them. The token’s page shows which step it is on.
A creator may add up to 10% on top of whichever rate applies. The total is shown on the token’s page and in the trade panel before you sign, because the total is what you actually pay.
Fees are collected in the asset the token is paired against, never in the token itself. A transfer tax inside a token breaks every automated market maker that credits only what arrives, so the fee lives in the venue instead — which is also why these tokens can be held and moved by anything that understands an ERC-20.
The creator’s cut accrues on chain and is withdrawn whenever they like, from their profile. It is not paid out on a schedule and nobody has to send it.
Not to a wallet. It is paid to a treasury contract that anyone can make split what it holds: a fifth buys KNTQ and burns it, a share saves for HyperCore spot listings of the coins that win the buyback three times, and the rest is the team’s. The shares can be changed, but never to more than 80% for anything other than the team. The running totals are on the buybacks page.
A quarter of every platform fee goes into one pot. Periodically the tokens that rose the most on real volume are bought from the market with that pot, and everything bought is burned — sent to a dead address, which anyone can check.
This is the part no other launchpad does. Fees normally leave the system; here they come back as demand for whatever is working, and then the supply they bought stops existing.
A creator can route their share of the fee to the people holding the token instead of to themselves, split in proportion to what each wallet holds.
It is on-chain and continuous. There is no snapshot to be taken at a convenient moment, no claim list for somebody to publish, and nobody to be left off one — the token tells the accumulator about every transfer as it happens, so your share is correct for exactly the time you held. Holders claim from their profile whenever they like.
The cost is a small amount of gas on every transfer of a token that opted in, borne only by those tokens. That is the price of not having to trust anyone to compute the split honestly.
Every trade is a transaction from your own wallet. Arka has no account system, no deposits and no balance of yours to hold.
Transactions are irreversible. Memecoins are volatile and most of them end up worth nothing. A locked creator buy expires. A token charging no creator tax can still be dumped by whoever holds it. A burned liquidity position means nobody can rug the pool, not that the price cannot fall to nothing.
The contracts are unaudited. Arka takes no custody, gives no warranty and offers no financial advice. Nothing here is a recommendation to buy anything.
Everything the interface does, something that is not a browser can do too. That is a property of how this is built rather than a feature added on top: the site holds no private state, so a program with a key can reach the same market the same way.
A launchpad that can sign for its users is a launchpad its users have to trust. This one cannot: the key stays where the agent runs, Arka only ever hands back calldata, and nothing here can move a balance, freeze an account or get in front of an order.
The quoting is the other half of it. A quote is an eth_call against the same arithmetic the trade will run — the launchpad’s own curve while a token is on it, and the pool’s live state once it has graduated, worked through with the same integer arithmetic the swap runs. Slower by a round trip, and the only version that cannot quietly disagree with what executes.
A token trades in one of two places and the right call differs: on the curve against the launchpad, in a PancakeSwap Infinity pool against our router once it has graduated. Between the two there is a brief state where the curve is sold out and the pool is not open yet, and anybody may finish the graduation.
Amounts are strings everywhere, because they do not fit in a double. Fees are per token and part of them is set by the creator, so they are read per token rather than assumed — in a pool the rate also steps down as the coin grows, so it is read again rather than remembered.
Everything the protocol runs on, on Elysium Testnet. None of it is upgradeable: what is deployed is what it will keep doing.
