To the creator
The default. Each trade pays the 0.30% straight to the creator's wallet, inside the trade itself.
MEMEPOOL // HOW IT WORKS · THE WHOLE MACHINE
How it works
A coin, a curve and one Bitcoin SV transaction per trade. No order book, no listing, no account. This page is the full manual: what moves the price, what every trade costs and where each satoshi of it goes.
01In one minute
Launch
Pick a name, a ticker and an image. One transaction mints a fixed supply of 1,000,000,000 tokens straight into the coin's bonding curve. Nothing is set aside for anyone: even the creator's own first buy is made on the curve, at the curve's price.
Trade
Buying takes tokens out of the curve and moves the price up; selling puts them back and moves it down. Every trade is one atomic transaction: your BSV and the tokens change hands together, or not at all.
Graduate
When 793,100,000 tokens have been bought, the curve is sold out and the coin graduates. It keeps its crown and keeps trading on the same curve.
02The bonding curve
There is no seller on the other side: you trade against the curve itself, a pool that always quotes a price. It follows one rule — BSV in the pool × tokens in the pool = constant — so the price depends only on how many tokens have been bought so far. The same amount bought at the same point costs the same for everyone.
- Curve sold

- Price per token

- Market cap

- BSV in the pool
- —
- A new coin starts at a market cap of about 0.93 BSV and graduates near 13.7 BSV, with about 2.83 BSV sitting in its pool.
- The pool is solvent by construction: selling every token ever bought walks the curve back to where it started and pays out exactly what went in, minus fees.
- Big buys move the price more than small ones. The trade panel shows the exact amount you get before you sign, and your slippage limit cancels the trade if somebody else moved the price first.
03One trade, one transaction
A trade is an atomic swap. The service proposes the transaction, your browser checks every input and output of it with the same code the service uses, and only then signs its own coins. If the transaction would take more than you agreed to, or give you less, your wallet refuses.
Goes in
Your BSV
The pool's tokens
Comes out
Tokens → your wallet
BSV → the pool's reserve
0.95% → platform
0.30% → the coin's route
Change → your wallet
- Trades settle the moment the network accepts them — no waiting for a block. Each trade of a coin spends a coin created by the one before it, so a trade can never be mined without the ones it was priced on.
- Now and then a coin shows “waits for a block”: its chain of unconfirmed trades is long enough that it pauses, buys and sells alike, until the next BSV block (about ten minutes). It reopens on its own.
- One buy is between 0.0001 BSV and 20 BSV.
04What it costs
| Fee | How much | Who gets it |
|---|---|---|
| Trading fee | 1.25% of the BSV side | 0.95% to MEMEPOOL, 0.30% to the coin's route (below) |
| Launch | 50,000 sats | MEMEPOOL, once, in the launch transaction |
| Indexer | 2,000 sats per trade | The token's indexing fund (1,000 sats per token output), so wallets and explorers can see your tokens. A coin's first trade also pays for its launch output (3,000 sats); no trade ever pays more than 5,000 sats |
| Network | a few hundred sats | The miners, by the size of the transaction |
That is all of it. Holding costs nothing, and nothing is charged to move your tokens out of the wallet. The quote in the trade panel shows each of these lines before you sign.
05Where the 0.30% goes
At launch the creator picks one of five things for the coin's 0.30% and signs it. It can never be changed afterwards, not by the creator and not by MEMEPOOL, and every coin's page shows the signature, the record of every payment and the vault that made it.
Fee sharing
Split between 2 to 10 wallets, each with at least 1%. Paid by the trades themselves: a wallet's cut goes out as soon as it is worth 600 sats, and waits in the pool's reserve until then. Nothing is held by anyone in between.
Holder rewards
Paid in BSV to the wallets holding the coin, in proportion to what they hold. Holders are counted at random moments, about every 10 minutes; a fee is shared among the wallets that held at least 100,000 tokens through the stretch it arrived in. Buying after the volume earns nothing from it. Payments go out once a wallet is owed 1,000 sats.
Buyback & burn
The coin's vault buys the coin back on its own curve and burns it: the supply only goes down. It buys once it holds 100,000 sats, never moves the price more than 2% in one go, and at most about once every 30 minutes — at moments nobody can call in advance.
Buys another coin
The fee buys a different MEMEPOOL coin: to burn it, to hand it to this coin's holders, or to keep it in the vault as a treasury. The same variant exists for the coin itself — bought back and handed to its holders.
- Only money already in a block moves. A vault never spends a fee from a trade that could still be undone.
- Rewards follow the trading: with no volume there is nothing to share. Nothing here is a promise of income — see Rewards for what each coin has actually paid.
- To be paid in BSV a holder's wallet says where; the TX Blaster wallet does it by itself when you buy.
06Graduation
A coin graduates when its curve sells out: 793,100,000 of the 1,000,000,000 tokens bought. It gets a numbered badge — Graduate #N, the N-th coin ever to make it — and the time it took. Nothing migrates anywhere: the coin keeps trading on its own curve, with the BSV that is in it, and the rest of the supply can still be bought.
Until then, the coin with the highest market cap past a quarter of its curve wears the crown: King of the hill.
07Who holds what
Your wallet — yours alone
The TX Blaster wallet is created in your browser. Its 12 words never leave this device and MEMEPOOL never sees them: write them down, because nobody can recover them for you. Tokens you buy land on your own address and stay there, whatever happens to this site.
The pools and vaults — held by the service
Each coin's curve is a pool whose keys the MEMEPOOL service holds, and so are the reward vaults. That is custody, and it is stated plainly. What they hold is public: every coin's page has a proof of reserves that checks the pool's coins against the curve and against the chain.
08Board, Advanced, alerts
Board
Every coin, sorted by trend, age, market cap or how close it is to graduating — and filtered by what it does with its fee.
Advanced
Three live columns with mini charts, the dev's share, the top holders and a one-click buy at the amount you set.
Rewards
What you were paid as a holder, in a split or as a creator, with every transaction — and the coins that pay and burn the most.
Leaders
The wallets with the most realized profit and the creators whose coins trade the most. Follow any of them.
My coins
Your holdings with what they cost, what they are worth if sold now and what you already took out — plus the feed of the wallets you follow.
Watchlist & alerts
Star a coin and be told when it graduates, pays its holders, burns or crosses a market cap you choose. Kept in this browser; fires while MEMEPOOL is open in a tab.
Profit and loss is counted from what really left and reached a wallet — the fees included — at average cost, on the tokens bought on MEMEPOOL (what a wallet sells without having bought it here is shown apart, and never ranks). What you still hold is valued at what the curve would pay for it right now, not at the last price times the amount.
09Questions
Do I need an account?
No. You need a TX Blaster wallet, which is created in your browser in a few seconds, and some BSV in it.
Can the supply of a coin change?
It can never grow: all 1,000,000,000 tokens are minted in the launch transaction and there is no mint afterwards. It can shrink, when a buyback burns tokens.
Can the creator take the pool's BSV?
No. The creator has no key to the pool. The BSV in it only moves when somebody sells tokens back to the curve.
Can the creator change where the 0.30% goes?
No. The option is part of the message the creator signs at launch, and the coin's page shows that signature. Nobody can edit it later.
I bought, but another wallet app does not show my tokens yet.
Tokens are visible to other apps once the BSV-21 indexer has validated the transaction, usually within a minute or two. MEMEPOOL and the TX Blaster wallet show them at once.
Why did my trade fail with “the price moved”?
Somebody else's trade landed first and the curve moved beyond your slippage limit. Nothing was spent. Quote again, or raise the limit in the trade panel.
If I sell, do I lose the holder rewards I earned?
What was already credited to your wallet stays yours and is paid. You stop earning from the moment you no longer hold the minimum.
Is the market maker a real trader?
MEMEPOOL can run a house market maker. Its trades are labelled MM wherever they show and are never counted in volume, trending, holders or the leaderboards. The same goes for a vault buying back.
Can I send my tokens to another wallet, or burn them?
Yes, from My coins (Send / Burn on each holding) or from the coin's page beside your balance. A send goes to the other wallet's tokens & ordinals address; a burn takes the tokens out of the supply for good (BSV-21 burn, validated by the indexer; one token always stays in your wallet). Both are one transaction of your own coins, signed in your browser: no MEMEPOOL fee, only the indexer's fee per token output and the miner's. A creator can burn part of the dev buy right at launch — the coin's page then shows Dev burned N% at launch (N = share of the total supply) with the transaction, the usual proof that those tokens can never be dumped.
Can I lock my tokens until a date?
Yes: Lock on the coin's page (beside your balance) or on each holding in My coins. You pick how many and until which block (a day, a week, a month… or a block number; a block comes about every 10 minutes). The tokens go into a 1Sat time lock to your own key, on-chain: until that block has passed nobody can sell, send or burn them — you included, and there is no early way out. They stay yours: they show in your holdings and keep counting for holder rewards. Once the block has passed, Unlock takes them back into your wallet. Every coin's page has a Locks tab with every lock, its owner and the date it opens (the dev's locks are marked) — the public proof that those tokens cannot be dumped before then. Lock and unlock are one transaction of your own coins each: no MEMEPOOL fee, only the indexer's fee per token output and the miner's. A creator can lock part of the dev buy right at launch (Launch → Dev buy → Lock part of it until a date): the coin's page then shows Dev locked N% and when it opens.
What are banners and Featured coins?
Paid placements. A coin's creator can put a banner (about 4:1, 1600 × 400 is ideal — the creator can move it up or down in its frame) across the top of the coin's page; anyone can put a coin in the Featured row at the top of the board for a while, marked as promoted. Both are paid in BSV from your TX Blaster wallet to MEMEPOOL (today a banner is 0.1 BSV, Featured 1 BSV for 24 h — bought again, the time adds up; the dialog shows the price before you pay). A banner shows as soon as the payment is on the network; MEMEPOOL takes down banners that break the rules, with no refund. Promotion is not an endorsement: do your own research.
Where are my watchlist, alerts and follows stored?
In this browser only: there is no account, and they do not follow you to another device. To show their numbers, the page asks MEMEPOOL about those coins and those wallets — like for any coin you look at — without saying who is asking.
Memecoins are toys. Prices can go to zero and every trade is final on-chain. Nothing on MEMEPOOL is investment advice. Only spend what you are happy to lose.
