the buyback wall

what it is

40% of every fee on a graduated token — the single biggest share — goes to that token's community pot. the pot does one thing: every time it crosses a placement threshold, it places a bid one tick below the current price, in the pool itself.

on this deployment the placement threshold is 0.05 WETH — every time the pot crosses it, a new bid goes in.

the wall never sells. it only buys. when the price climbs, new placements land one tick under the new price — the wall rolls upward behind it. when the price falls into the wall, the wall does what a wall is for: it buys. and the tokens it buys are never sold back into the market — they're burned. each time the wall rolls, any tokens it absorbed on the way down are sent to the dead address, gone for good. the weth it recovers rolls back into the pot to build the next bid.

none of this is a team promise or a treasury policy. it's the pool's hook contract doing the same thing on every trade, forever. nobody — not us, not the creator — can redirect the pot, pause the placements, or withdraw it. the complete owner-powers list →

what it does

a standing bid under the price is a floor. sellers sell into the wall instead of into thin air, so drawdowns are shallower and slower. that's the entire mechanism — and it compounds: every trade feeds the pot, every threshold crossing thickens the wall, and the deeper the wall, the more selling it takes to cut through it. there's a second effect, quieter than the floor: every dip that fills the wall permanently shrinks supply. the tokens the wall catches don't come back — they're burned. so the same mechanism that softens a fall also removes float from the market on the way down. buy pressure that never becomes sell pressure, turned into permanent supply reduction.

why that matters is survival. most new tokens don't die from a single crash; they die because the first hard drawdown clears everyone out and nobody comes back. a token whose own fees keep building a floor under it gets something rare: time. time for a community to form — and a visible, on-chain reason to believe the floor is real, because anyone can watch the bids sitting there.

what it does not do

it does not push the price up. the wall only ever bids below the current price — it cushions falls; it doesn't cause rises. if you're reading this as "number goes up automatically," read it again: it's a floor mechanism, not a pump mechanism.

it also can't make a token succeed. if everyone leaves, the wall slows the fall and softens the bottom — it doesn't reverse it. what it buys is drawdown reduction and time, nothing more. we think that's worth more than any promise a launchpad could make, precisely because it isn't one.

one more honest line: the wall can also grow from the rebate side. if a token's trader-rebate pool goes unclaimed long enough, the remainder sweeps into the wall — value stays with the token, never with us. how rebates work →
