The First Tax Token Bonding Curve
π The First Tax Token Bonding Curve
SnakePad is the first launchpad on Solana to combine:
β Token-2022 transfer tax enforcement β Bonding curve liquidity and pricing β Fair token distribution with no insider allocation
This design introduces a powerful and transparent way to launch tokens β with real fees, real incentives, and zero rugs.
π§ͺ What Is a Bonding Curve?
A bonding curve is a mathematical formula that sets the token price based on supply and demand.
As users buy tokens, the price automatically increases
As users sell tokens, the price decreases
It creates a natural market dynamic without needing an external liquidity provider or market maker.
SnakePad uses a linear bonding curve optimized to:
Start tokens at a low price
Gradually raise the price with every purchase
Cap at a predefined market cap (typically ~$50k)
πΈ What Is a Transfer Tax?
SnakePad tokens use the Token-2022 Transfer Fee Extension, which enforces a fee on every transfer, including:
Buys
Sells
Wallet-to-wallet transfers
This fee (set by the token creator at launch, 2-10%) is automatically collected on-chain by Solana and withheld in the token account until claimed.
π How SnakePad Combines These
Every token launched on SnakePad:
Mints via Token-2022 with a defined transfer tax
Allocates 793M tokens to a bonding vault
Starts at a low entry price (e.g., 0.0000025 SOL/token)
Sells tokens to users directly from the vault using the curve
Gradually increases price based on demand
Sends transfer fees to a centralized rewards vault
When the market cap reaches a defined threshold (e.g., $50k), the token graduates and migrates to a real liquidity pool (e.g., SnakeSwap).
π― Why This Matters
This model eliminates common issues with traditional launches:
β No rug pulls β No dev wallets with pre-minted tokens
β No stealth launches β All tokens launch on-chain and traceable
β No fake volume β We limit fake volume by taxing every transfer
Instead, it enables:
β Predictable pricing and liquidity
β Real yield from volume (via taxes)
β Community-aligned growth with zero insider allocations
SnakePad is the first platform to bring Token-2022 tax logic + bonding curves together, making it the most advanced memecoin/utility token launch format on Solana.
