Overview

Token Layer’s launchpad provides a flexible, fair, and efficient way to launch tokens using customizable bonding curves. Unlike traditional liquidity bootstrapping or fixed-price sales, the launchpad allows creators to configure launch parameters to match their goals.

​
How the Launchpad Works

​
Bonding Curve Mechanism

The launchpad uses a bonding curve to determine token prices:

Bonding Curve Pricing

Token price increases algorithmically as more tokens are purchased, creating natural price discovery during the launch phase.
Key Benefits:
  • Instant Liquidity: No need to provide upfront liquidity
  • Fair Launch: Price determined by demand
  • Automatic Price Discovery: Market finds equilibrium
  • No Rug Pulls: Liquidity locked in curve until graduation

​
Launch Phases

1

Launch Phase

Tokens are bought from the bonding curve
  • Price increases with each purchase
  • Instant execution on the curve
  • No slippage within curve
2

Graduation Trigger

When specific conditions are met:
  • Target supply threshold reached
  • Graduation price achieved
  • Time limit reached (optional)
3

DEX Migration

Liquidity automatically migrates:
  • Pooled to Uniswap V3 / PancakeSwap / Meteora
  • Token becomes freely tradeable
  • Price discovery shifts to market
When the bonding curve reaches the target price, the token graduates and migrates to external DEX. Considerations:
  • Higher price = more capital raised
  • Lower price = faster graduation
  • Market will determine if price is achievable
Track launch progress:
  • Tokens Sold: How many of sale amount purchased
  • Current Price: Current bonding curve price
  • Capital Raised: Total stablecoins collected
  • Participants: Number of unique buyers
  • Progress to Graduation: Percentage to threshold
All metrics available via dashboard and API.
