How HoodHat works
HoodHat launches and explores coins on Pons V2. Pons owns the trading protocol; HoodHat provides the interface, wallet flow and portfolio tools.
Overview
A launch is a wallet-signed transaction against the Pons V2 factory at 0x7eD598BcEf8bd9Edd8C97A195C6d13f40801EC7e on Robinhood Chain, chain ID 4663. It deploys an ERC-20 and a bonding curve. HoodHat never holds keys, ETH or tokens.

What is live
HoodHat reads public chain and Pons data where available. A signed launch is real and irreversible.
| Live | Pons V2 launches, ETH and configured stock-token pairs, token metadata, balances and portfolio discovery. |
|---|---|
| Live | Creator wallet, creator tax, buyback, burn, treasury and charity routing. |
| Live | Pons native holder fee sharing, which requires distributor creation and a permanent recipient handoff. |

Launching
HoodHat uploads the logo publicly, calculates the factory economics for the selected quote asset, then asks the connected wallet to sign. The current Pons configuration is:
| Launch fee | 0.0005 ETH plus gas |
|---|---|
| Total supply | 1,000,000,000 tokens |
| Pair | Native ETH or a configured Pons ERC-20 quote asset |
| Base trade fee | 1.00% |
| Creator tax | 0% to 10% |
| Virtual quote reserve | Defined by the selected Pons pair |
| Graduation threshold | Defined by the selected Pons pair |
| Pool tick spacing | Defined by the selected Pons launch configuration |
Without a Developer buy, HoodHat calls Pons launch directly. With a Developer buy, Pons combines the launch and initial purchase in launchAndBuy; ERC-20 pairs may require a separate approval transaction. Holder-rewards setup may require additional wallet transactions. Logos and launch identity fields should be considered permanent.
The bonding curve
Pons V2 uses a constant-product curve with a virtual quote reserve. HoodHat does not create a second curve or AMM.
quoteReserve = phantomQuote + realQuoteReserve k = quoteReserve × tokenReserve price = quoteReserve / tokenReserve progress = realQuoteReserve / graduationThreshold
Fees are taken from the quote leg before the swap. The first launch seconds use an anti-snipe tax that decays with chain time.
| At launch | 99.00% |
|---|---|
| About +1s | 6.18% |
| About +2s | 0.19% |
| About +3s | 0.00% |
Graduation
When the selected Pons pair reaches its configured graduation threshold, Pons creates a locked Uniswap V4 position. The creator and HoodHat cannot withdraw the liquidity.
| Sold through curve | Defined by the selected Pons launch configuration |
|---|---|
| Seeds V4 pool | Defined by the selected pair and launch configuration |
| Permanently locked | According to Pons V2 graduation rules |

| Creator tax | 0% to 10% · creator recipient |
| Buyback | Optional Pons flag · vault 0x42df2a798f82289E177311362e8f5ccC45c1219c |

Stock baskets and burn-to-redeem vaults described by Nest are separate contracts and are not part of HoodHat.
Risks
- Most launches are volatile, illiquid and may go to zero.
- Transactions are irreversible and require ETH plus gas.
- Anti-snipe tax can reach 99% during the first seconds.
- Creator tax is fixed per launch and applies on top of the base fee.
- Pons V2, Uniswap V4, the hook, escrow and future HoodHat contracts carry smart-contract risk.
FAQ
Can I pair a coin with a stock token?
Yes, when the asset is enabled by Pons and listed in HoodHat. ETH is used for the launch fee; an ERC-20 quote asset may also require an approval transaction before the initial purchase.
Does every Pons coin have holder rewards?
No. Holder rewards are enabled only when the creator selects them at launch and confirms the distributor setup transactions.
Can the creator remove liquidity?
No. Pons locks the graduation position through its hook and locker.
Where do I trade a portfolio coin?
Use the Pons trading button on its HoodHat portfolio row and verify the token address.
Does HoodHat custody wallets?
No. Your wallet signs every transaction. HoodHat never asks for a seed phrase or private key.
