Say hello to Pools, a new launchpad built for Robinhood Chain. Launch a token, discover new ones, and trade them end to end at pools.trade.
Built by the most trusted team in DeFi
Pools is built by Uniswap Labs and comes with:
- Autocompounding liquidity: LP fees autocompound back into the locked position
- Sniping mitigation: Creators buy in the same block the token is launched, preventing snipers from being the first to buy a new token
- Permanent locked liquidity: Tokens are in a protocol-held pool that cannot be removed by the creator
- Optional creator fees: Creators can turn on an optional fee at launch and receive 0.05% of the 25bps fee
- No added launchpad fees: Each pool launches a standard Uniswap pool, with a 0.25% LP fee that autocompounds to grow locked liquidity. This is a fraction of the standard ~1% on other launchpads
How launches work
There are two ways to launch a token on Pools. Both start with a fixed supply of 1 billion and end in a Uniswap v4 pool. Fees autocompound to grow locked liquidity.
| Crowd Launch | Instant Launch | |
|---|---|---|
| Format | 4-hour launch window | Live immediately |
| Mechanism | TWAP bids mitigate bundling | Classic bonding curve |
| Graduation | 10K launch FDV or bids are refunded | No requirement |
| End state | Deeper liquidity, locked forever | Liquidity locked forever |
Crowd Launch: Bundle resistant, fairer distribution
Your token launches over a four-hour window. Everyone bids a budget, and bids fill gradually over the reminder of the launch window. Price moves with demand, so earlier bids get better prices.
Every budget fills in full by the end. The token is tradable if the launch reaches $10k FDV. If it falls short, all orders are refunded.
Instant Launch: Fast and simple
Your token is live the moment you create it. The price climbs as people buy, and you can swap in and out anytime.
Your token everywhere
Every token launched on Pools inherits Uniswap’s entire distribution surface the moment it is live:
- Uniswap Web App & Wallet: discoverable and swappable where millions of people already come to swap onchain
- Uniswap Launches: featured alongside other top Uniswap launchpads
- Uniswap API: surfaced on the routing that powers Uniswap’s apps and third-party integrators including Metamask, Ledger, and top DEX aggregators
With dozens of day one integrators at launch, every token is swappable across the ecosystem immediately.
