FAQ

VOLTAHOOKS is a programmable memecoin launchpad on Elysium, an EVM-compatible chain whose native currency is HYPE. Creators launch tokens that carry configurable on-chain rules from day one: King of the Hill, buyback and burn, holder rewards and anti-sniper protection.

Most launchpads give every token the same contract and the same curve. Here the creator picks the abilities and their parameters before launch, and the rules are enforced by the token and pool contracts where anyone can read them. Every token page shows its rules.

Elysium. The contracts are deployed there and this app talks only to Elysium (and to a local test chain during development). Other chains are not supported.

A rolling throne. A single buy above the token's minimum claim size makes the buyer King for the configured window, and the King receives a share of the trading fees while crowned. A larger buy by someone else takes the crown. The King is dethroned if it sells through the pool or if its holdings (wallet plus staked or pending in the pool) fall below 50% of its crowning buy, and the crown also expires after the window. The rules, window and share are fixed by the creator at launch.

A share of trading fees accumulates in HYPE. Once the pot passes the token's burn threshold, anyone can trigger a buyback that buys the token on its own pool and burns it. Buybacks are limited to one every 5 minutes. Burns reduce supply. They do not guarantee any price outcome.

Holders earn a share of fees by staking the token. Unstaking has a 24 hour cooldown. Rewards only start once at least 1,000 tokens are staked in total, so very early on nobody earns anything. Tokens you do not stake earn nothing.

For a short launch window the pool charges a surcharge that decays to zero. Creators can also set an optional wallet cap that limits how much a wallet can buy from the pool during the cap window (it does not limit what a wallet holds). It reduces the advantage of bots but does not eliminate it: the cap can be sidestepped by splitting funds across several wallets.

No. The rules apply only to trades through the token's VOLTAHOOKS pool, including fees, King of the Hill, buyback funding and anti-sniper checks. Trades on other venues bypass them. Plain wallet-to-wallet transfers are normal ERC-20 transfers.

Not yet. The contracts are live but unaudited, which is why the app shows a banner. An audit may find issues that lead to loss of funds. Only use money you can afford to lose.

No. There is no VOLTAHOOKS token and no token sale. Anyone offering one is not us.

No. Nothing on this site is financial, legal or tax advice, and nothing is an offer or solicitation. Memecoins can lose all of their value.

Trade quotes and balances are read from the chain. Lists, history and statistics come from an indexer that follows the chain and can lag behind; the app shows when it does. Anything not read from the chain or the indexer is labelled.

Creators upload them and they are public. The app shows them as plain text, truncates them, falls back to a generated avatar when an image is unusable, and flags a metadata mismatch when the content does not match the hash stored on-chain. It does not vouch for what creators write.
