Robinhood Chain Protocol Guide
What Is Pons?
A source-backed guide to the pons launch mechanism, fees, liquidity lock, live contracts and the risks the interface itself tells users to consider.
pons is a non-custodial launch and trading interface on Robinhood Chain. A launch creates a fixed supply of one billion ERC-20 tokens and a WETH-denominated Uniswap V3 pool in one transaction. Trading happens in that pool immediately and its liquidity position is sent to a protocol locker.
Not affiliated with pons or Robinhood. Protocol details verified against official documentation on 20 July 2026.How a pons launch works
- 01Create
The creator chooses the token identity, links and payout wallet. The active factory deploys a fixed-supply token and its trading pool.
- 02Trade
The token trades against WETH in a 1% Uniswap V3 pool. There is no separate pre-DEX bonding curve or later pool migration.
- 03Lock
The LP position is held by the locker. Creator and protocol trading fees can accrue, but the documented launch model keeps principal liquidity locked.
- 04Graduate
The default graduation threshold is documented as 4.2 ETH of paired principal. Graduation is a milestone, not a safety or quality endorsement.

Official pons contract addresses
These are the addresses published by pons for the active and legacy deployments. The position manager address often appearing in searches is a Uniswap component—not the pons locker.
For a token-level check, resolve which factory launched it and read that factory’s locker() value. Paste any address below for an instant label, or read the full pons liquidity locker verification guide.
Live address check
Identify a pons / Robinhood Chain address
Paste a contract from a search result, tx trace or Blockscout link. We tell you whether it is the active locker, a legacy contract, or the Uniswap position manager people often confuse with the locker.

Deploy a standard ERC-20 on Robinhood Chain from 0.02 ETH. You set the supply, the full mint lands in your wallet, and the contract is yours to verify on Blockscout.
What pons fees fund
The current documentation says 80% of protocol fees are used in a manual automated-TWAP buyback of PONS and 20% funds infrastructure and the team. It explicitly says this 80/20 allocation is not immutable yet. A buyback can reduce circulating supply when tokens are burned, but it does not guarantee price appreciation.
pons versus direct token deployment
| Decision | pons | Direct deployment |
|---|---|---|
| Supply | Fixed at 1 billion | You choose the supply |
| Trading | Pool created automatically | You decide whether and where to add liquidity |
| Fees | Launch fee plus ongoing pool fees | One deployment fee; DEX fees only if you later create a pool |
| Best fit | Integrated public token launch and trading | Project, utility or community tokens requiring custom tokenomics |

Risks pons itself discloses
The official risk section says user-created tokens are experimental, names and images can be copied, prices can move quickly, liquidity can be thin, and contracts, wallets, RPCs or indexers can fail. A locked pool does not remove these risks. Read our pons safety and contract review before interpreting “locked” as “safe.”
