What is hoodstar.fun?
What is hoodstar.fun?
A meme coin launchpad on Robinhood Chain (an Arbitrum Orbit L2 that uses ETH for gas). Anyone can launch a token for free; every token trades on the same fair bonding curve; and successful tokens graduate automatically into a Uniswap v3 pool with permanently locked liquidity.
What chain is it on, and what do I pay gas in?
What chain is it on, and what do I pay gas in?
Robinhood Chain, chain ID 4663. Gas is paid in ETH. It’s an EVM chain, so standard Ethereum wallets like MetaMask work — see Connect a Wallet.
Is hoodstar.fun custodial?
Is hoodstar.fun custodial?
No. You trade directly from your own wallet against on-chain smart contracts. The platform never holds your funds, and the contracts have no pause, mint, blacklist, or withdrawal backdoors. See Security.
How much does it cost to launch a token?
How much does it cost to launch a token?
There is no creation fee — you only pay network gas. You can optionally attach ETH to your launch to make the first buy on your own curve.
Trading
What fees do I pay when trading?
What fees do I pay when trading?
A 1% fee on every bonding-curve buy and sell, taken in ETH: 0.7% to the protocol and 0.3% to the token’s creator. After a token graduates, trades happen on Uniswap v3 in a 1% fee-tier pool instead. Details in Fees.
How does the price move?
How does the price move?
Deterministically. The bonding curve is a constant-product formula over virtual reserves — buys raise the price, sells lower it, and the exact quote is computable on-chain before you trade. See Bonding Curve.
What is graduation?
What is graduation?
When all 793.1 million curve tokens are sold, the curve closes forever and the raised ETH plus 206.9 million reserved tokens seed a Uniswap v3 pool at the final curve price. The LP is locked permanently. See Graduation.
Can the developer rug the liquidity?
Can the developer rug the liquidity?
Not through the contracts. Creators never receive free supply, the curve’s ETH is held by the protocol until graduation, and graduated liquidity is locked in an ownerless vault with no withdrawal function. A creator can still buy early (visibly, on-chain) and sell later — always check the creator’s activity before aping.
Creators
How do creators earn?
How do creators earn?
Two streams, both claimable on-chain at any time: 0.3% of every bonding-curve trade while the token is on the curve, and 50% of all Uniswap v3 swap fees after graduation — forever. See Creator Rewards.
Do creators get free tokens?
Do creators get free tokens?
No. The creator’s only way to own their token is to buy it on the curve at the public price — including the optional “dev buy” at launch, which executes at the same starting price available to everyone.
Can I change my token after launch?
Can I change my token after launch?
No. Name, ticker, supply, metadata URI, and curve parameters are immutable once launched.

Yes — **STAR page](/introduction/star-token) and our official channels. Anything earlier is fake.

Is there an API or SDK?
Is there an API or SDK?
Yes — everything is on-chain and open. Use the TypeScript SDK or integrate the contracts directly.
