Fees

One number, split three ways, and one of the three is yours to redirect.

The split

Every trade pays the pool fee you chose at launch — 1% by default. Of that:

Fees accrue on both sides of the pair. A buy pays in the pair asset, a sell pays in your coin — so a coin that trades in both directions earns you both.

Your 70% cannot be taken away

The creator share is snapshotted onto your launch at the moment it happens. Changing the default afterwards applies to future launches only; it cannot reach back and cut what an existing coin earns. This is deliberate and it is tested: a creator commits to a launch on the strength of a number, and a protocol that can revise that number later has not really given them anything.

The protocol's own 30% is not snapshotted, because it is the protocol's own money.

What you can do with your share

Two settings, both on the fee vault rather than on the pool — so you can change either one later, without relaunching.

Where it goes

setFeeRecipient(token, address) sends your share somewhere other than the wallet you launched from — a multisig, a treasury, a splitter. Only you can call it, and it moves only your share.

A payout already deferred stays claimable by whoever it was owed to.

Or: buy back and burn

setFeeRoute(token, BuybackBurn) stops paying you and destroys your share instead. The part already denominated in your coin is burned directly. The part in the pair asset buys your coin in its own pool and burns what it buys — so the buyback walks the price up through the same range your launch seeded.

It runs inside the same transaction as the fee collection, and the coins bought are sent straight to the burn address without ever touching the vault's balance.

No slippage bound is set on that buy. The input is a small, fixed amount of fees and the output is destroyed, so the worst a sandwich can do is cause fewer coins to be burned than the market would otherwise have given. No principal is exposed.

Collecting

collect(token) is permissionless — anyone can trigger it, including a bot, including you. It does not matter who calls it, because the proceeds can only ever reach the recorded recipient, the buyback sink and the treasury. There is no path by which a caller pays themselves.

If a payout cannot be pushed — a blacklist, a paused token, a contract that will not accept it — it becomes a claimable balance rather than reverting. One party being unable to receive must not strand everybody else's fees.
