how everything works

everything below, in plain words.

[what is this?]

launchpad coins is a public launchpad on solana. anyone can launch a coin or trade coins that were launched here. connect with your email and we create a secure embedded wallet for you. every coin on the feed was launched through this site and is tagged Launched By LaunchpadFun.com.

[launching a coin]

connect your wallet with email — a one-time code does it.
go to launch and fill in the name, ticker, picture and story.
pick a pool: 💊 pump.fun or 🐶 bonk. both work the same — it's just where your coin's trading pool starts.
optionally set a dev buy — the amount of SOL you want to buy of your own coin in the same transaction it launches with. leave it at 0 if you don't want to.
hit launch, confirm, and your coin appears on the feed. that's it.

[vamp a coin]

on the launch page there's a "vamp a coin" box. paste any solana contract address and hit scan — we pull the name, ticker, picture, story and links from that token and pre-fill the launch form. edit whatever you want, then launch it as your own coin. the original token is never touched.

[trading]

open any coin from the feed to see its chart and trade box. type how much SOL you want to spend (buy) or how many coins you want to sell, hit the button, confirm — the transaction is signed inside your embedded wallet and goes straight on-chain. we never hold your funds and we never see your private key.

[transaction safety]

before any transaction reaches your wallet, it gets checked in your browser and refused if anything looks wrong:

your wallet must be paying. if the transaction spends from a different address, it's blocked.
spend cap. it can't move more SOL than the amount you typed, plus a small fee allowance.
no coin handovers. anything that would give another account control of your tokens is rejected.
dry run. every transaction is simulated on-chain before it is signed, so unexpected spending is caught early.
clear errors. if it's refused, you get a plain message saying why — nothing is signed silently.

[fees]

platform fee: 0%. you only pay the normal solana network fee and any fee the pool itself charges.

[wallets]

we use turnkey to create a non-custodial embedded solana wallet tied to your email. your private key is encrypted and stored by turnkey — we never receive it, and we cannot sign anything without you confirming.

[backed by turnkey — proof]

wallets on this site are powered by turnkey, a wallet-infrastructure company. this is not a claim — it's verifiable in real time:

real organization. our turnkey organization id is 7bfd3dd9-569d-4a92-8b73-19cc2119a0b4. every wallet created on this site belongs to this organization.
watch the network calls. open your browser's developer tools → network tab, enter your email on the site, and look for requests to api.turnkey.com. you'll see turnkey send your one-time code and return your wallet address. no call to our server creates the wallet.
check the wallet owner. every address shown in your header is a real solana address controlled by your turnkey wallet. you can look it up on any solana explorer — the funds sit there, not on our site.
we cannot sign alone. every transaction is signed through turnkey's api with your explicit approval. our backend has no turnkey api private key that lets it sign on your behalf.
email only, no password. login is a one-time code from turnkey's email auth. there is no password database here to leak.

ready?
