Whitepaper

Launch higher. Last longer.

longevity.trading is a cross-chain coin launchpad and OTC desk, built so that a coin lasts longer and holding pays more than flipping: an opening fee that makes bundling the open expensive, creator trading fees that build up and are paid as the coin grows, or paid to the holders by how long each has held, a weekly bounty funded by forfeited creator fees, and a desk for size. This page is the whole design, with the reasoning, and every number is read from the engine's own constants.

Abstract

Most of the damage to a new coin is done in its first minutes: a bundle in the opening slots, a creator who sells into the first buyers, a pool with no reason to stay in. Longevity moves the rules to those moments. A launch is paid for and created by Longevity's worker within seconds, from a mint derived from a secret, on Meteora's bonding curve with one set of known caps. An opening fee on every launch charges 99% on every buy in the first 3 slots, so early bots and bundles pay to jump the line. The creator's share of every trading fee builds up from the first trade and is paid as the coin grows: payouts start after day 3, 25% of what has built up from a $50K peak, topped up at most every 6 hours, and everything at graduation. It is forfeited if the creator's wallets sell more than 50% of what they bought in the first 3 days, or if the coin goes 7 days without a trade before graduating. The coins a creator holds earn holder rewards like any other holder's. A creator may send that share to the holders instead, paid in SOL as often as every 10 minutes and weighted by how long the coins have been held, so holding pays more than flipping. Every forfeit funds, in full, a weekly bounty for coins that break $500K or $1M and hold it. An OTC desk settles size between two wallets without touching the pool. A coin can be paired with SOL or with any coin launched here. Other chains each open with a slice of the same supply at the Solana price.

01

Principles

  • A fairer open.

    For the first 3 slots after a coin goes live, about 1.2 seconds, every buy pays a 99% opening fee, on every launch. A bot or a bundle can still buy in those slots; it pays 99% to do it. The creator's own declared first buy is the one exception, and it is printed.

  • Fees that reward staying.

    The creator's share of the trading fees builds up from the first trade and is paid as the coin grows. A creator whose wallets sell more than 50% of what they bought in the first 3 days forfeits it, and the whole forfeit funds a weekly bounty for coins that climb and hold. The coins a creator holds earn holder rewards like any other holder's. A creator who sends the share to the holders instead pays them by how long they have held.

  • Known numbers, read from the code.

    Every figure on this site is the engine's own constant, printed, not a number someone typed. When a rule changes, the page changes with it.

  • Say exactly what is built.

    What runs is described in the present tense. What is built but not deployed says so. What is not built is not mentioned.

  • Nothing custodied that need not be.

    A trade is yours to sign. An OTC deal settles between two wallets or not at all. The one thing Longevity does hold, the creator's fees, it holds to a published schedule and prints on the coin page.

02

The launch

Why. On an ordinary launchpad the creator holds the mint before the launch, so whoever is fastest when it opens, the creator or a bot, takes the first and cheapest coins, and every later buyer funds that position. Longevity answers it twice: the mint does not exist until the launch transaction, so nothing can be aimed at it in advance, and the first buys after it pay an opening fee.

How. You fill in the coin (name, ticker, description, image, links), pick the pair and the fee, and pay 0.25 SOL from your wallet to Longevity's deployer wallet with a reference in the memo. The site reads the payment from the chain, never from a server's word; the first correct payment from your wallet wins the name, and a payment from another wallet or for the wrong amount is sent back. The worker creates the coin as soon as the payment confirms, from a mint derived from a secret the worker holds. The deployer wallet signs the creating transaction and is the pool's creator, which is how the creator's trading fees reach Longevity first and are paid on the schedule in section 04. The open is not hidden; it is priced: on every launch, every buy in the first 3 slots, about 1.2 seconds, pays 99%. A bot or a bundle can still buy in those slots and pays 99% to do it; after that everyone pays the coin's own fee, bundles included. The one exception is the creator's own first buy, up to 10 SOL, which rides inside the launch transaction as the pool's first swap at the normal fee: it is part of the launch itself, it is paid with the launch, and the coin page prints it. When the creator makes none, the worker makes a 0.001 SOL buy itself so that exempt first swap is never a bot's, and burns what it bought. The launch used to wait a random few minutes for the same reason; the fee does the job better and the coin is live in seconds. Nothing about a paid launch is public until the coin exists.

Tickers. A ticker or name taken by a live coin is refused. A coin is live for its first 3 days, after it graduates, or while it has traded in the last 7 days with a market cap of $30,000 or more, so simply existing does not hold a name. A ticker an older coin used costs 1 SOL more, returned if the coin graduates within 48 hours. A look-alike ticker or name, or a reused image, is allowed but flagged. Nobody can stop a copy on another launchpad; these rules apply here.

Refunds. If the worker cannot create the coin, the payment is refunded. The fee part of the launch price comes back on a clean graduation: no early buyer linked to the launcher, no top holder at graduation funded by the launcher, and the launcher holding 10% of the supply or less. The on-chain cost of creating the coin is kept.

03

The curve and graduation

Why one curve. A menu of curve sizes is a menu of ways to look cheap. Every Longevity coin opens at the same market cap and graduates at the same one, so a chart means the same thing on every coin, and a $20,000 start makes bundling the open expensive even before the opening fee is counted.

The numbers. Meteora's Dynamic Bonding Curve, a third-party program live on Solana. 1,000,000,000 coins. Opens at $20,000, graduates at $150,000; the caps are fixed in SOL when the curve's config is made, so the dollar figures move with SOL. The trading fee is the creator's choice of 1 or 3%, charged on every trade and kept by the graduated pool. An opening fee on every launch charges 99% for the first 3 slots (about 1.2 seconds) and then the coin's fee: early bots and bundles pay the opening fee, and a buyer a moment later pays the coin's normal fee. It is a fixed rule and cannot be turned off. The one exception is the pool's first swap, which rides inside the launch transaction at the coin's fee: the creator's own first buy, or Longevity's arming buy when the creator makes none.

Graduation. At $150,000 the curve migrates into a Meteora DAMM v2 pool at the graduation price. The pool keeps the coin's fee, and part of that fee compounds into the pool so its reserves grow with volume. Meteora splits the pool's liquidity by the coin's config: the creator's half is permanently locked and earns the creator's fee share; Longevity's half is held, unlocked, in the platform wallet, so that when another chain takes off, liquidity can be moved from the Solana pool to that chain's pool.

04

Creator trading fees

Why. A creator paid in full from the first second has the least reason to stay. Paying the creator's trading fees as the coin grows makes the creator's best move and the holders' best outcome the same thing: a coin that keeps trading.

The schedule. Because Longevity's deployer is each pool's creator, the creator's share of every trading fee reaches Longevity first, and the worker pays the launcher by these rules. The share builds up from the first trade, and for the first 3 days there is no payout yet. After that the launcher is paid a share of everything that has built up, set by the coin's highest market cap: 25% from a $50K peak, everything once it graduates, and under a $50K peak it keeps building. A payout tops the launcher up to that share, at most once every 6 hours, and a payout too small to be worth sending waits for the next round.

Holders, on every coin. A share of every trading fee is paid to the coin's holders, whatever the creator chose for their own share; every chain here pays the same rounds in its native coin when it opens. Nothing waits on a schedule here: as often as every 10 minutes the share that has come in is paid in SOL to the wallets holding the coin, by coins held times the multiplier for how long they have been held: 1× after 10 minutes, 2× after an hour, 3× after two hours, 4× after three hours and 5× after four hours. Coins count for nothing in the round after they are bought, and coins added later start their own clock, so a large buy does not take on the multiplier of a small older holding. Sell, or move coins out, and every coin the wallet holds starts over at round one: it earns no share that round, and that share goes to the wallets that stayed. What it was already owed stays owed. A round sends as many as 720 payments, to the wallets owed the most; a share it does not send stays owed to the same wallet and is paid in a later round. A wallet holding less than $20 of the coin earns no share that round: the pot rewards holding, not flipping. The creator's own wallet is a holder like any other: the coins it holds earn these rewards on the same terms, from the same pot, and neither the creator-fee schedule nor a forfeit changes that. A creator may name the holders as the destination of their own share too, and it joins the same rounds; that choice is final, and only a community takeover changes it.

Community takeover. When a creator abandons a coin and its holders take it over, Longevity names the wallet the creator's fees go to from then on, under the same rules, and the coin page says so. What the old creator forfeited stays with the Summit Bounty; the old creator's forfeit no longer blocks the new recipient.

Forfeits. The creator trading fees that have built up are forfeited if the creator's wallets (the launcher plus the wallets the worker links to it by who funded them: the worker reads which wallet first funded each early buyer, and links wallets to wallets, never to people) sell more than 50% of what they bought in the first 3 days; selling coins that were never bought counts too. They are also forfeited if a coin has not graduated and goes 7 days without a trade: what is still waiting is forfeited, and so is the creator's share of anything the coin earns afterwards. Every forfeit funds the Summit Bounty in full; Longevity keeps none of it. A forfeit never touches holder rewards, the creator's own included.

The platform's share. Longevity retains its share of every trading fee until it announces how that share is split. The schedule, the tiers and the forfeits are run by the worker and shown on each coin's page. The full schedule, as a table, is on Fees.

05

The Summit Bounty

Why. Forfeited creator fees have to go somewhere. The fairest place for them is the coins and holders that broke a line and held it.

The round. Every week, Monday 00:00 UTC to the next, is a round, and the pool is every creator fee that was forfeited, in full. Two tiers: Summit, a coin that breaks $1M during the week, and Peak, one that breaks $500K. Each is checked once, 24 hours after the coin first broke its line, and passes if it is still at $800K or $400K or more and launched clean (no early buyer linked to the launcher). A coin wins only its highest tier in a week.

The payout. After the week's last check, Summit winners share 80% of the pool and Peak winners 20%, equally within each tier. Each winner's share goes 30% to its creator, 50% to its top 50 holders at the check (pro rata, each capped at 10% of that part, pool vaults and the creator's wallets left out), and 20%, plus whatever the caps left over, buys the coin in its own pool and burns what it bought. A creator who forfeited does not stop the coin from winning: the coin and its holders are paid the same, and the creator's 30% buys the coin back and burns it with the rest. The same holds for a coin that was taken over. A week with a winner less than 3 days old settles once that coin's first 3 days are over, so a creator's part is never paid before the creator has been judged. A tier with no winner leaves its part in the pool, which rolls over and grows. The bounty page shows the pool, the countdown, the coins in their 24-hour check and past winners.

06

Staking

Why. Most launchpads treat a coin's trading fees as the pad's revenue. A coin whose fees pay the people who hold it has a reason to be held, which is the whole point of this site. So every coin pays its holders from one pot, and staking multiplies a holder's share of it.

How. Each coin has a vault, a program of Longevity's own (stake_vault). A holder stakes coins into it with a lock of their choosing: no lock at 1×, 7 days at 1.5×, 30 days at 2×. The holder rounds count staked coins as held and multiply the wallet's weight: unstaked coins once, staked coins at the lock's multiplier, counted against the coins it has held longest, on top of the multiplier for how long it has held. No SOL goes into the vault; the rounds pay the wallet directly, so nothing can be stuck in a vault and staking stays non-custodial. The vault is open from launch; the worker creates one for every coin. Coins come back on unstake; leaving a lock early is allowed and costs a tenth of the coins that leave, kept for Longevity's treasury, so a 30-day promise costs something to break, and what stays keeps its lock. Adding to a locked stake keeps at least its lock, and a longer one upgrades the whole stake. Staking is not a sell: the rounds count the wallet and its stake together.

The split. The holders' pot comes out of the same trading fee as the creator's share and Longevity's; the three are the engine's constants and none is printed as a percentage. On chain Meteora pays the creator side of the fee to the deployer, which carries both the creator's and the holders' parts; the worker books them apart when a claim lands and the sweep keeps the holders' pot until the next round. The liquidity split at graduation is a separate setting and unchanged. The coins in a vault can be moved by nobody but the staker who put them there, and a staked coin still counts as held for the Summit Bounty.

07

The OTC desk

Why. A pool is the wrong place for size. A large sell prints the chart and pays slippage; a large buy does the same in reverse. Two wallets that already agree on a price need a way to settle that the pool never sees and that neither side has to trust.

How. A deal is one transaction. The maker sets the coin, the amount, the counterparty, the deadline and the price: a fixed total, for any Solana coin, or the market, for a coin launched here and paired with SOL. The desk builds a transaction that moves the coins one way and the payment the other, and the maker signs it now. Nothing leaves either wallet until the taker signs and sends it later, and then every leg settles together or not at all. A durable nonce keeps the maker's signature alive; moving the nonce cancels the deal, and a filled deal cannot fill twice. The deal_guard program, Longevity's own, gives the deal a hard deadline on chain. A deal lives at most seven days.

Priced at market. A fixed price on a coin that moves 20% an hour is a free option for whoever signs second. A market deal names an offset instead: the deal settles at the coin's pool price at the moment it lands, plus or minus that offset, and never past a floor (seller) or ceiling (buyer) the maker signed. The maker's signature covers an unknown amount because the amount is computed on chain: deal_guard reads the coin's Meteora pool (the curve, with its config, or the graduated pool) in the same transaction and moves both legs itself. Three defences stand between a pushed pool and a fill: the maker's bound; a refusal of any pool or router instruction in the same transaction, read from the instructions sysvar; and a reference price Longevity's worker posts to a per-coin account while the coin has open market deals, stamped by the chain's clock, which the pool must sit within 3% of and which may be no older than 45 seconds. The posting key can post prices and nothing else. Market pricing is for coins launched here and paired with SOL; a paired coin or a coin from elsewhere deals at a fixed price. The same desk exists for the EVM chains as one contract per chain: the maker signs the order, the taker fills it in one transaction, a market order reads the coin's own pool and is refused when the pool sits away from the posted reference; it opens with each chain.

The open book. A deal names one wallet. An offer on the book names nobody: anyone may fill it, in part or in full, until it is gone, expires or the maker cancels. Nothing is custodied for it. A sell leaves the coins in the maker's own wallet, delegated to the offer's address for the amount; a buy wraps the most it may ever pay and delegates that. A fill is one transaction that moves the coins with the offer as delegate and pays the quote the other way, at the fixed price per coin or at the pool's price plus the maker's offset, inside the maker's limit and under the same reference-price check as a market deal. A fill smaller than the maker's minimum is refused unless it takes the rest. The maker cancels any time and the rent comes back; anyone may close an expired offer, its rent to the maker. The book is read from the chain, not from a database: what the page shows is what the program holds.

The fee and the checks. A flat 0.3% fee on the price is taken from the seller's proceeds inside the same transaction and sent to Longevity's treasury: the buyer pays the price, the seller receives the price less the fee, and the taker, whichever side that is, pays the network fee. Before signing, the taker's browser reads the terms out of the deal, rebuilds it from those terms and demands identical bytes, so an extra instruction, a redirected transfer or a different fee cannot pass, whatever server the deal came from. A deal is paid in SOL or in a quote token the site accepts. Mints that could break a deal are refused: transfer hooks, permanent delegates, non-transferable or pausable tokens. A freeze authority or a transfer fee is shown as a warning. The site holds no key that could move a deal's funds.

08

Pairing

Why. A coin priced in another coin gives that coin's holders a reason to care about the new one, and gives the new one a buyer base on day one. Done carelessly, it lets a fresh coin be drained by a launch quoted in it. The rules below are built on Meteora's curve, with one rule added for exactly that case.

Who can be a pair. SOL, or any coin launched on Longevity, on its curve or graduated to its pool. SOL is depth zero and a coin paired with a coin is its parent's depth plus one; coins can be paired at most two deep, and every chain of pairs must end in SOL. A coin whose curve has filled but whose pool has not opened yet waits until it does. There is no size rule of ours: a fresh $20,000 coin can be a pair the day it launches, the raise is priced up the parent, and what it would move the parent is shown before anyone pays, because a pair is meant to move its parent. The pairing is permanent, because the curve's config fixes the quote, and a paired coin launches on exactly the chains its parent is on.

Price and trades. The new coin's raise is what a normal launch raises in SOL, bought up the chain leg by leg through each curve or pool with its fees, so the raise is always something the chain can really sell. Buying a paired coin buys the parent first, in one transaction, and selling sells back into the parent. Every leg pays its own pool's fee, so the parent's pool earns from every trade of the child; the trader's slippage protects the final leg. A paired coin's amounts are valued at the parent's SOL price, and its creator's fees arrive in the parent and are sold down to SOL when claimed, so the schedule in section 04 counts in SOL. The pairs page lists the coins you can pair with.

09

One supply, every chain

State. Built and tested. Launches run on Solana. A pool on Base, Robinhood Chain, BNB Chain or Hyperliquid exists once that chain's contracts are deployed, and the chain list on this site shows which chains are live.

Why one supply. A separate coin per chain is a separate market cap per chain, and the arbitrage between them belongs to whoever is fastest. One supply with pools that open at the same price keeps the market cap one number and lets the chains correct each other.

How. A creator picks chains at launch and pays a per-chain pool fee, shown on the launch form. The coin's config keeps 5% of the supply per picked chain out of the curve; at graduation the worker sends each slice to that chain, where it opens the pool at the Solana price. Every other chain's token reports the full supply and mints or burns only on bridging; what lives elsewhere is held on Solana in a program-owned custody with no key, released only against verified bridge messages, and shown on the coin page. Arbitrage then moves supply to wherever trading is.

Staying aligned. One alignment vault per chain is filled by the fees of the cross-chain coins trading there: until a coin has contributed its own target, its fees on that chain go into that chain's vault, and the creator's part of them is recorded as owed and paid later under the normal creator-fee schedule. A bot closes price gaps from that stock, small from a coin's first trade and at full size once the coin has held a $100,000 market cap, never spending more than that coin contributed. Trades placed on the site fill on whichever chain gives the best price after fees, and a gap-aware fee on the EVM pools charges more to buy and less to sell on a chain that is above the others' price, so outside traders push it back in line; a reference price older than two minutes falls back to the plain fee. Solana-only coins are never touched by any of this.

10

What a coin page shows

Every coin page is the coin's spec sheet, read from the chain and the worker's own records, not from what the launcher typed. It shows what the coin enforces: the pair and, for a paired coin, the route down to SOL; the trading fee and the opening fee if the creator chose one; the curve's progress to graduation or, after it, the pool. It shows what the coin pays: the fee schedule's state (held, paid, forfeited, the tier and the next payout), the dev's holdings and history. It shows where the fees go: the creator's share on its schedule, the platform's share retained, and after graduation how the liquidity is held, the creator's half locked and Longevity's half held. Around it sit the chart, the tape, the holders, the callouts with each poster's bag and result, and the coin's standing in the week's bounty.

11

Built, switching on

These are complete in code and wait on a program or contract that is not deployed under Longevity's keys yet. Each one says what it waits on; none is live.

  • Fee routes for the creator's share

    Instead of the creator's wallet: the people who post about the coin, a split of up to four wallets, an @ handle vault on X, TikTok, Instagram, GitHub or Twitch, a buyback of the coin, games (jackpot, last buyer, biggest buy, streaks, a referral cut, best callers), an agent-traded pot, or delivery to a wallet on another chain. Switches on when the launch_vault program is deployed.

  • Hooks

    Wallet caps, trading hours, sell cooldowns, 50+ presets, hooks written in plain words and scanned so ordinary holders can always sell, and hook sets published by the community. Switches on when the rule_hook program is deployed.

  • uPEG

    Every whole unit of a coin is a numbered NFT with its own art. Switches on when the upeg program is deployed.

  • One supply on every chain

    Section 09. Switches on when each chain's contracts are deployed.

The roadmap keeps this list.

Security and trust

What you are trusting. Longevity's worker, which creates coins, links early buyers to the launcher for the fee rules, holds and pays the creator's fees by the schedule and settles the bounty; every action is a public transaction and every state is printed on the coin page. The deployer wallet, which receives launch payments, creates coins, is each pool's creator, and holds the creator's fees until paid or forfeited and Longevity's half of each graduated pool's liquidity. Meteora's programs for the curve and the pool. For the OTC desk, only the transaction you sign: the site holds no key that could move a deal's funds, and your browser checks the deal before you sign it.

Coins are created at the request of the people who launch them. A listing, a rank or a bounty check describes activity on the chain; it is not advice.

14

For builders and agents

Everything a person can do here, an agent can do through the same endpoints: check a name, make a launch intent and pay it, read a coin's state, quote and build a routed trade, open or take an OTC deal, read the bounty. The integration kit documents the endpoints and the real-time stream; llms.txt is the short version for a model.
