Pons V2
Pons V2 is the dominant launchpad on Robinhood Chain. It publishes no ABI and its explorer sits behind a bot check, so every figure below was obtained by reading the deployed bytecode over the public RPC, resolving the selectors, and calling the getters against a live curve.
These values were measured on 23 September 2026. They are constants in the deployed contracts rather than configuration we control, but verify them on chain before relying on them if time has passed.

Economics of a USDG pair
pairTokenEconomics(USDG) returns the opening virtual reserve, the graduation threshold and the quote decimals. The ETH pair carries the same ratio — 1.68 opening against 4.2 graduation — which is what confirms the reading rather than a lucky guess at the field order.
| Getter | Value |
|---|---|
| Opening market cap | $3,236 |
| Graduation threshold | $8,090 |
| launchSupply | 1,000,000,000 |
| sellableTokens | ≈ 714,000,000 |
| reservedTokens | ≈ 286,000,000 |
| launchFee | 0.0005 ETH |
| feeBps | 100 (1.00%) |
| protocolFeeShareBps | 3,000 (30%) |
| Creator share of volume | 0.70% |
| snipeTaxStartBps | 9,900 over 3s |
| maxCreatorTaxBps | 1,000 |
The 72-hour timelock
CREATOR_FEE_RECIPIENT_TIMELOCK is the single most structuring fact about building on Pons. Changing where a launch's creator fees go takes effect three days later. Any contract that is supposed to receive them must therefore exist before the curve does, which is why the vault is deployed first and the token pinned afterwards.
The launch sequence is a direct consequence of this one constant.
Details that cost time to learn
- Quote assets are whitelisted.
approvedPairTokenscontains USDG. It does not contain WETH. - The escrow indexes credit by
msg.sender. One recipient address per coin, which suits a per-coin vault exactly. - Reserves are virtual.
quoteReserve()equalsrealQuoteReserve() + phantomQuote(), andgetReserves()returns them in the order(quote, token). Reading the real reserve where the price uses the virtual one would mis-size every order. - The launch event emits
(token, curve, creator)as indexed topics, which is how the keeper discovers a new curve without an ABI.
The curve interface
buy(uint256 quoteIn, uint256 minTokenOut, address recipient)
sell(uint256 tokenIn, uint256 minQuoteOut, address recipient)
getReserves() → (uint256 quoteReserve, uint256 tokenReserve)PonsCurveAdapter wraps exactly these three and nothing else, so the vault never holds a hand-rolled encoding of a contract we do not control.
The consequence for pricing
No liquid skin is worth $3,236. The most expensive item in the reference basket trades around $2,150. Under the obvious convention — whole supply equals one skin — every coin would open far above its target, in the direction a fresh vault with no inventory cannot defend. Hence the multiplier described in the launch sequence. covertskins has the identical problem on pump.fun and does not address it.
