Creator Fee Rights

When a token graduates, its liquidity is locked forever — but the trading fees that liquidity earns are not. They’re split between the token’s creator and the protocol, and the creator’s share is a transferable right.

Every graduated pool charges the standard 0.30% fee on swaps. Fees accrue to the locked LP position and are split on collection:

Recipient Share
Token creator (fee-rights holder) 70%
Protocol treasury 30%

This split is hardcoded in the vault contract — no admin can change it.

  • Fees accrue continuously as the pool trades — both in ETH and in the token.
  • The fee-rights holder sees a live “Your LP fees” panel on the token page and on their portfolio, and can claim any time with one transaction.
  • Claiming is permissionless in effect: collection always routes 70/30 by the on-chain rules; nobody can intercept or redirect your share.

Transferring fee rights (community takeover)

Section titled “Transferring fee rights (community takeover)”

Creator fee rights can be handed to a new address — useful when a community takes over a token (“CTO”) or a creator wants to pass the torch. The handoff is deliberately two-step so rights can never be moved by accident or stolen in one signature:

  1. Propose — the current holder enters the recipient address. The app shows a full review of the rules before anything is signed.
  2. Accept — the recipient must explicitly accept the handoff from their own wallet. Until they do, the current holder keeps earning and can cancel at any time.

Rules to know:

  • All fee economics follow the role. Once accepted, the new holder earns the 70% share of everything accrued from then on — and any uncollected fees at handoff time. The app warns the outgoing holder to claim first.
  • Provenance never changes. The token’s original creator address stays on record permanently; only the fee-earning role moves.
  • The recipient gets a persistent notification in the app (token page, portfolio, and header) so incoming handoffs are never missed.
