They find out
Usually because the launcher sent them the vault page, or a holder tagged them. Every coin page has a copy-ready message written for this.
Launch a coin for any LinkedIn profile on Pons. Every trade's fee lands in a vault that belongs to that handle. You take a share as the launcher. The rest waits for the person in the profile, for as long as it takes.
Thrilled to share that I've been endorsed for Solidity, Go-to-market, and 0.9 ETH. What the trenches have been doing for free since 2021
Live on Pons since 9 September 2026. Two weeks in.
Launched in the last hour
This is a parody coin with no affiliation to, endorsement by or connection with the person named or with LinkedIn. Their share is locked in their vault indefinitely and never swept back to us. Anyone can ask for their profile to be delisted.
Balances belong to the people in the profiles. Tap a row to see the coin and its vault.
A handle can't hold a wallet, so the vault holds it for them. Here is the whole path from a trade to a withdrawal.
The vault address for any handle is computed from the handle itself, so it is the same address whether or not a coin has been launched yet. When you launch, Pons is told to pay the creator fee to that address. Anyone can recompute it and check the explorer.
Fees arrive as one amount. The vault records the launcher's percentage and the locked percentage, chosen at launch and fixed forever. You can pull your share whenever you like. The locked share has no owner key until someone proves the profile is theirs.
The owner signs in with LinkedIn. That returns their member id, name and photo. A reviewer confirms it matches the bound profile, then LinkedPad's attester key signs a message binding the handle to the wallet they typed in. The vault checks that signature and pays out. If the attester key is ever wrong, the vault can still only pay a wallet named in a signed message for that exact handle.
launcherBps and lockedBps. They match the split shown on the coin's page.claimLauncher or claimOwner. There is no third function.Four steps, in order, from finding out to withdrawing.
Usually because the launcher sent them the vault page, or a holder tagged them. Every coin page has a copy-ready message written for this.
We read their name and photo, nothing else, and never post. The account signing in is compared against the bound profile.
Most are cleared inside a day. Close calls are refused and told why, rather than guessed at.
They add a Robinhood Chain wallet and take the balance in one transaction. Or ask for the page to come down and keep the balance anyway.
Every payout is a person who found out a coin existed, proved the profile was theirs, and took the money. Nothing is deducted at withdrawal; the 0.15% LinkedPad takes comes out of trades, not claims.
Freshly bound profiles and what their vaults have done since.
Nothing needs to be launched, staked or bought. If a coin exists for your handle, the fees are sitting in your vault right now.
No. The fee recipient is the vault, set at launch, and the launcher's wallet is never in that position. The vault has two ways out: the launcher's fixed share, and the owner's share against a signed attestation for that exact handle.
The balance sits in the vault. There is no sweep function, so it can't be taken by LinkedPad, redistributed to holders, or counted as revenue. Handles don't change, so a claim years later pays out the same as one tomorrow.
Signing in with LinkedIn proves control of an account. We compare the name and photo on that account against the bound profile, and a reviewer confirms before the attestation is signed. If a profile has changed its handle, the owner can also prove it by posting a one-time code on LinkedIn.
Ask for a delist and the page comes down here, the coin stops appearing on the leaderboard and feed, and the balance stays claimable by you. We can't delete a token that already exists on Pons, but we can stop being the front door to it.
Pairing against MSFTx, NVDAx or HOODx prices the coin in that stock rather than ETH, so the chart moves with the company as well as the coin. Fees then accrue in the stock token, and the owner withdraws in that token.
0.15% of every trade, taken inside the 1% fee before the vault split. Nothing on launches beyond gas, nothing on claims, nothing from unclaimed balances.
Coins launched here are memecoins with no utility, no expectation of profit and no relationship to the named person's work. You can lose everything you put in. Launching a coin for someone does not make them part of it. Anyone can request a delist. Balances belong to the handle they were bound to and are released only to the verified owner of that profile.
