Plan a Community Launch
Decide whether a Community Coin fits your Space and prepare an honest, contribution-aware Launch.
A curve can create a market. It cannot create a reason for a community to care.
Before planning a Launch, choose one honest position:
- Community Coin: cultural, collectible, or speculative; no promised product utility.
- Utility-enabled Community Token: at least one specific holder use is already live and enforceable.
Do not label a roadmap promise as utility. If the live reason is unclear, keep the Community Coin label or postpone the Launch.
1. Define the purpose
Write one sentence a Member can verify today. For a utility-enabled token, name the live holder action, who qualifies, the limits and fees, any expiration, and how the Space can change or remove it.
Avoid promises about price, profit, revenue share, asset ownership, future exchange listings, or guaranteed liquidity.
2. Choose one chain
Each Launch is pinned to one chain for life:
| Chain | Purchase reserve | Typical ZYNC surface |
|---|---|---|
| TON | USDT | Telegram and web |
| Base | USDC | Farcaster, Base App, and web |
Native TON or ETH pays network gas only. It is not the curve reserve. A chain may be day-one scope and still unavailable until its independent mainnet gate passes.
3. Configure contributor access
Choose the contributor-window duration and the host-bounded allowance rate. ZYNC freezes each eligible Member’s same-Space Points snapshot and derives a stablecoin purchase ceiling.
This does not spend Points. Do not describe it as converting or migrating Points. The design rewards prior participation with first access while requiring the same stablecoin payment and price curve.
4. Configure the fair curve
Publish the total supply, curve allocation, graduation target, starting price, anti-snipe rule, and expected slippage. There is no creator dev-buy, insider allocation, private discount, or separate Contributor price.
At exact curve sell-out, the net reserve seeds the canonical public-market pool and the liquidity position is burned. The graduation reserve is not a fee pool.
5. Explain the fee
The production-v1 trade fee is 1% on each buy and sell. That fee—not the trade principal—is divided:
| Destination | Share of the fee |
|---|---|
| Creator | 30% |
| Space treasury | 40% |
| ZYNC protocol | 30% |
Show the stablecoin amount, fee, estimated tokens, slippage, network gas, and current window before a Member confirms.
6. Pass the publication gates
Before a public Launch, obtain product, security, contract, operations, and jurisdiction-specific legal approval. Confirm contract addresses, operator controls, sanctions/region limits, tax treatment, consumer and financial-promotion rules, incident contacts, and the risk/no-rights disclosure.
For TON, day-one readiness additionally requires complete post-deploy event mirroring, authenticated DeDust graduation evidence, production USDT configuration, deterministic audited builds, reconciliation, funded canaries, and explicit TON production approval.
Member-facing checklist
On a phone screen, a Member must be able to see without opening a separate policy:
- Community Coin or Utility-enabled classification;
- contributor or open window;
- stablecoin payment and remaining allowance, when applicable;
- token estimate, fee, slippage, and gas;
- chain and contract address;
- sell and graduation rules; and
- loss risk and no claim on ZYNC, the Space, revenue, profit, assets, or future utility.
