One launchpad. Two ways to launch. Priced in AVAX.

Edelweiss is a token launchpad on Avalanche. Start a token on a bonding curve that graduates to Uniswap V4, or Fair Launch it straight into a Uniswap V4 pool. Priced in AVAX, with liquidity locked for good.

Overview

Anyone can create a token and picks one of two launch modes. On a bonding curve, price is discovered on the curve first and the token moves to a public Uniswap V4 market once enough AVAX is raised. With Fair Launch, the token trades on Uniswap V4 from the launch transaction.

How launches work

The mode is chosen once, when the token is created. Supply, the AVAX pair, creator tax and locked liquidity work the same in both.

Mode 01

Bonding curve

The token opens on its own curve. Each buy raises the price and each sell lowers it. When the curve raises 720 AVAX, it graduates: a Uniswap V4 pool is created from the curve's AVAX and tokens at the curve's final price.

  3. Reach target
  4. Uniswap V4 pool

Mode 02

Fair Launch

No curve and no graduation. The launch transaction opens a Uniswap V4 pool at a 288 AVAX market cap, puts the whole supply in it and locks the position.

03

Quote asset

Every Edelweiss token trades against AVAX. It is the asset you pay with, the unit prices are quoted in, the other side of the pool, and the asset creator earnings are paid in.

Creator earnings

Paid in AVAX

Every figure on Edelweiss — price, market cap, volume, earnings — is denominated in AVAX, never converted to dollars: the protocol holds no price oracle, so it has nothing to convert with. AVAX on Avalanche is also the gas token, so one balance pays for both the trade and the transaction.

05

Graduation target

Bonding curve tokens only. These values come from the current Avalanche launch configuration and apply to every new curve token.

The onchain configuration and the create page are the final source of truth for exact parameters.

06

Trading and price

Edelweiss does not decide what a token is worth. The curve, or the Uniswap V4 pool, sets the price from real trades.

On the curve
price = AVAX reserve ÷ token reserve
After graduation
price = Uniswap V4 pool price (TOKEN / AVAX)

07

Fair Launch

The launch transaction creates the token, opens a Uniswap V4 pool and adds the whole supply as a one-sided position. The creator does not deposit any AVAX, and nobody else can open the pool first at a different price.

Starting market cap

288 AVAX

Launch fee

Pool

Token / AVAX, 0% LP fee
Launch
Token created → Uniswap V4 pool opened → full supply added → position locked
Creator buy
Optional first buy in the same transaction, with no snipe tax
Trading
Swaps on the pool; its hook takes the trading fee and creator tax
Starting price
price = starting market cap ÷ total supply
After launch
price = Uniswap V4 pool price (TOKEN / AVAX)

The pool holds no AVAX below the starting price, so the price cannot fall under it. The pool's LP fee is 0%: anyone can add liquidity, but only the hook fee is charged, so trading fees are not shared with outside liquidity providers.

08

Bonding curve or Fair Launch

Both modes open at the same price, so early buys cost the same. They differ in where trading happens and when the liquidity is locked.

Liquidity

Liquidity belongs to the market, not the creator.

The pool position is sent to a locker that has no way to withdraw it: at graduation for bonding curve tokens, and in the launch transaction for Fair Launch tokens. Neither the creator nor the Edelweiss team can pull that liquidity.

Trading fees

Trading fee

1%

Creator tax

0–10%

Protocol share

30%

Every buy and sell pays the 1% trading fee plus the creator tax the creator chose at launch, the same way in both modes. 30% of the trading fee goes to the protocol and the rest to the creator side. With buyback on, 50% of the creator side buys the token back and vests it; the creator tax always goes to the creator.

Rates are fixed for each token at launch. The create page shows the live values before you confirm.

12

Creator earnings

Creators keep earning while their token trades, in both modes: on the curve, after graduation, and on Fair Launch pools. Earnings build up in the same fee escrow and are claimed in AVAX.

Quote: AVAX

Earn: AVAX

An active market matters more than simply creating a token.

13

Fairness and limits

Snipe protection

Buys in the first 3 seconds after launch pay a snipe tax of up to 98% that falls to zero within that window, in both modes. The creator's initial purchase happens in the launch transaction itself and is exempt.

On a bonding curve, the creator can also exempt a short list of bundle wallets at launch. Fair Launch has no bundle list (3-second window, up to 98%), and buys for an exact token amount are rejected until the window ends.

14

Risks

Edelweiss is onchain launch and trading infrastructure, not a yield product or investment advice.

  1. 01

    Tokens can be extremely volatile and may go to zero. Locked liquidity does not create a price floor.

  2. 02

    Onchain transactions are generally irreversible. Check addresses and amounts before signing.

  3. 03

    Smart contracts, pools, RPCs, and other infrastructure can fail or contain unknown risks.

  4. 04

    USDC, when used as a pair token, is issued by a centralized company that can block addresses. Transfers to or from a blocked address fail, including trades and fee claims. AVAX itself has no such blocklist.

  5. 05

    Edelweiss does not guarantee any token's price, returns, or future performance.

FAQ

01Who can create a token on Edelweiss?

Anyone with a wallet connected to Avalanche and enough AVAX for the launch fee and gas.

02What is the total token supply?

1,000,000,000 for every token.

03How many launch modes are there?

Two. Bonding Curve starts on a curve and graduates to Uniswap V4; Fair Launch trades on Uniswap V4 from the first block.

04Which quote asset is used?

AVAX, Avalanche's native gas token.

05Which mode should I pick?

Bonding curve if you want a curve phase that raises AVAX before the Uniswap V4 pool exists. Fair Launch if you want a public Uniswap V4 market from the first block.

06When does a token graduate?

A bonding curve token graduates when its curve has raised 720 AVAX. Fair Launch tokens have no graduation.

07Can the creator withdraw the liquidity?

No. The pool position is locked permanently, at graduation on a bonding curve and at launch with Fair Launch.

08How do creators earn?

From trading fees on their token, paid in AVAX and claimed from the fee escrow.

09Why does selling ask for approvals?

Tokens on Uniswap V4 are sold through Uniswap's Universal Router, which collects them through Permit2. The first sell of a token asks you to approve it for Permit2; each sell then sets a short-lived Permit2 allowance for exactly the amount you sell.

10Does Edelweiss choose which token wins?

No. Edelweiss provides the market; traders and communities decide.
