The First Tax Token Bonding Curve

📈 The First Tax Token Bonding Curve

SnakePad is the first launchpad on Solana to combine:

✅ Token-2022 transfer tax enforcement ✅ Bonding curve liquidity and pricing ✅ Fair token distribution with no insider allocation

This design introduces a powerful and transparent way to launch tokens — with real fees, real incentives, and zero rugs.

🧪 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)

💸 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.

🔁 How SnakePad Combines These

Every token launched on SnakePad:

1. Mints via Token-2022 with a defined transfer tax

2. Allocates 793M tokens to a bonding vault

3. Starts at a low entry price (e.g., 0.0000025 SOL/token)

4. Sells tokens to users directly from the vault using the curve

5. Gradually increases price based on demand

6. 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).

🎯 Why This Matters

This model eliminates common issues with traditional launches:

• ❌ No rug pulls – No dev wallets with pre-minted tokens

• ❌ No stealth launches – All tokens launch on-chain and traceable

• ❌ No fake volume – We limit fake volume by taxing every transfer

Instead, it enables:

• ✅ Predictable pricing and liquidity

• ✅ Real yield from volume (via taxes)

• ✅ 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.
