Architecture, mechanics, and rewards — the Trench Town playbook.
Overview
Trench Town is a bond-strong launchpad on Base. Tokens begin in a single-sided bonding vault that accumulates ETH until a target is reached. When the target hits, LP is created and locked, ownership is renounced, and trading continues with no buy tax. The aim: fairer, safer launches and a culture that rewards strong holders ("good soldiers").
Anti-Rug Mechanics
The system removes common attack surfaces during and after launch: LP lock at bond, no mint/burn/blacklist backdoors, and an optional early-seller tax during the first blocks/minutes to discourage paper hands (if enabled for a token). The tax can route to a protocol pool for community rewards.
Bonding Vault → LP
During pre-bond, buyers send ETH to the vault. Once the bond target is reached, the vault pairs ETH with the token, creates and locks LP, then renounces ownership. Post-bond, trading continues normally. Projects then migrate to Uniswap V3 pool (concentrated ranges; optional, disclosed fee-share).
How to Launch
- Choose Name, Symbol, and Bond Target (ETH).
- Community bonds ETH; progress updates live on your token page.
- On target, the protocol creates and locks LP and renounces ownership.
- Trading continues with no buy tax. Optional early-seller tax may decay quickly.
Rewards & Notes
A portion of protocol revenue (e.g. early-seller tax or optional V3 fee share) will be directed to a community rewards pool for periodic distributions (weekly/monthly or on threshold). The Trench Token will introduce boosts and loyalty mechanics later.
- Crypto is risky. Market conditions can affect outcomes.
- Any token-specific tax/fees are disclosed on that token’s page.
- Security reviews are ongoing; updates will be posted here.
