How Fairlaunch Works
Our protocol is designed to remove speed, wealth, and insider access from the equation, giving every participant a fair shot at allocation. Here’s how it works from start to finish:
Step 1 – Open Buy Window
No pre-registration required.
When a launch goes live, participants can submit buy orders using SOL or stablecoins.
The buy window stays open for a fixed duration (e.g., 15–30 minutes).
No rush, no gas wars — everyone has time to participate.
Benefit: Removes the advantage of bots and high-speed traders.
Step 2 – Stored Orders
All buy orders are collected and stored on-chain without immediate execution.
Orders are timestamped but cannot be front-run.
Benefit: Eliminates the speed race and prevents manipulation through order sniping.
Step 3 – Random Selection
At the close of the buy window, VRF (Verifiable Random Function) randomly selects orders until the allocation cap is reached.
Every participant has an equal mathematical probability of selection.
Benefit: Fully transparent and provably fair allocation process.
Step 4 – Automatic Refunds
If an order is not selected, funds are automatically refunded instantly.
No waiting periods, no hidden fees, no manual intervention.
Benefit: Maintains user trust and liquidity without frustrating delays.
Step 5 – Delayed Token Claims
Selected participants claim their tokens after an optional cooldown (e.g., 10 minutes).
Helps reduce instant dumping and supports price stability.
Benefit: Protects both the project and its community from post-launch volatility.
