how RIOT works

Everything below is enforced on-chain by a single, immutable launchpad contract. No admin can mint tokens, touch curve ETH, or unlock liquidity. This page explains all of it — the curve, graduation, fees, and Riot Mode.

1 · launching a token

Anyone can start a riot for free (just gas). Every launch is identical: 1,000,000,000 supply, all of it minted to the launchpad contract in the token's constructor. The token contract has no mint function — supply can only ever go down (burns). Creators can optionally make the first buy in the same transaction.

2 · the bonding curve

800M tokens are sold on a constant-product curve (the same x·y=k math as pump.fun) seeded with 1.5 ETH of virtual liquidity. Price starts around 0.0₈15 ETH and rises smoothly as ETH flows in. Buys and sells are instant, always-available, and quoted exactly on-chain — what you see is what executes, minus your slippage tolerance.

3 · graduation

When the curve has raised 6 ETH(~37.5 ETH market cap), the token graduates automatically in the same transaction: all 6 ETH plus 160M tokens (priced exactly at the curve's final price — no gap, no arb) are deposited into a Uniswap v2 pool, and the LP tokens are sent to the dead address — liquidity is locked forever. The remaining 40M inventory is burned. From then on, trading lives on Uniswap.

4 · 🔥 riot mode

Riot Mode is not a setting — every RIOT launch runs it. It's the reason this launchpad exists. Inspired by pump.fun's Mayhem mode, rebuilt for Robinhood Chain with one upgrade: every rule is enforced by the contract, not by a company's discretion.

+100% minted
At creation the contract mints an extra 1B tokens (2B total) into the Riot bot vault. The creator gets none of it. This is the only mint that can ever happen — it's in the constructor.
24h of bot trading
An autonomous market-maker trades the vault against the curve for 24 hours: random-walk buys and sells that create volume, price discovery, and liquidity — a free market maker for your launch.
fee-exempt, capped
Bot trades pay no fees, but the contract caps its per-trade size, trade rate (1/sec), total buy budget, and total sell proceeds. You can watch its caps fill live on any token page.
burn at the end
When the window closes (or the token graduates), the entire remaining vault is burned. Anyone can trigger settlement — it's permissionless. No leftover supply, ever.
insurance fund
Trading fees go to the fund that finances the bot's buys — pump.fun's 'insurance fund' design, visible on-chain.
permanent label
Every RIOT token is tagged forever, in the app and on-chain (the flag is immutable), so its supply history is transparent everywhere.

5 · fees

launch a token	free (gas only)
curve trades (buy & sell)	2%
graduation / migration	free
riot bot trades	0% (fee-exempt)
after graduation (Uniswap)	0.3% pool fee (Uniswap's, not ours)

6 · risks — read this

Memecoins are a casino. Most go to zero. Riot Mode adds volume, not value — a bot trading a token does not make it worth anything. Pre-graduation, a Riot bot that net-sold can leave the curve short of exit liquidity in a rush for the door (see FAQ). Prices move violently; only trade what you can afford to lose entirely. Nothing here is investment advice, and RiotPad takes no responsibility for losses.

7 · FAQ

▸Can the creator rug?

Not through the token itself. The creator gets no free allocation, the token has no mint function, the curve's ETH can only leave through sells or graduation liquidity, and the LP is burned. A creator can still dump tokens they bought — that risk is visible on-chain like anywhere else.

▸Why does a RIOT token show 2B supply?

At launch the contract mints an extra 1B into the Riot bot vault (2B total). Market cap is always displayed against the 1B base supply, and after the 24h window every unsold vault token is burned — typically bringing supply back near (or below) 1B.

▸Who runs the Riot bot? Can it steal the fund?

The Riot bot is a wallet operated by RIOT. It can only call two functions — mayhemBuy and mayhemSell — and the contract enforces its trade size, rate, budget, and deadline. It cannot withdraw the fund, touch the curve's ETH, or move tokens anywhere except through the curve.

▸What happens if the Riot bot net-sells?

Same disclosed risk as pump.fun's Mayhem mode (our inspiration): if the bot sold more than it bought, more tokens circulate than the curve issued, and in an extreme everyone-exits scenario the last sellers could find the curve short of ETH before graduation. Graduation clears this — on Uniswap every token can always be sold into the pool.

▸What chain is this? How do I get ETH there?

Robinhood Chain — an Ethereum L2 built on Arbitrum technology. Bridge ETH via the Arbitrum Portal bridge, or third-party fast bridges (Relay, Across, Stargate). Gas is ETH; fees are fractions of a cent.

▸Is the contract verified?

Yes — the launchpad is a single contract you can read on the explorer. Everything in these docs is enforced by that code, not by promises.
