What is ArcPad?

ArcPad is a memecoin launchpad on Arc (Circle's stablecoin L1, gas in USDC) where every token launches straight onto Uniswap V3 from block one — no waiting to "graduate", no migration, no presale. Liquidity is locked forever and holders earn rewards.

• Anyone creates a token for free (you only pay gas) — no seed liquidity, no upfront capital. The full supply IS the liquidity.
• The launch mints a single-sided Uniswap V3 position that is locked into a fee locker from the first block. The token is live and tradable on Uniswap the second it exists.
• An anti-snipe window caps any single wallet at 2% of supply right after launch, so bots can't vacuum the opening liquidity.
• The token itself has no owner, no mint, no pause, no blacklist — it's renounced by construction. Not even the creator can touch the LP.

Every swap on a launched token pays a 1% fee, split automatically on-chain — so each side earns 0.5% of every swap:

• 0.5% to the protocol treasury (ArcPad).
• 0.5% to the token's creator — claimable in USDC from their profile ("Claim all rewards", one click, every token they launched).
• Creators can choose a holder-rewards option instead: they pick their cut (0–45%), and holders earn the rest pro-rata, credited live on every swap.

Because the LP is locked forever and the price range is wide, the pad earns its 0.5% on all in-range trading volume — whether people trade on ArcPad, on Uniswap directly, from Dexscreener, bots, or aggregators. The volume finds the token; the locked LP captures the fees.

• Direct to Uniswap from block one — most launchpads make you climb a bonding curve and wait to "graduate" to a DEX. ArcPad's curve IS the Uniswap pool.
• Liquidity locked forever — no rug, no dilution, no LP withdrawal.
• Holders and creators earn rewards for life — a token that pays you is better than a token that hopes.
• No presale, no VCs — everyone buys at the same open price.
• Own data infrastructure — feed, charts, trades, holders, analytics all come from our own indexer + database, not a third-party data vendor.

• Live on Arc mainnet now — fully functional (create → trade → claim fees), running on the early mainnet while Arc's official public launch completes.
• Deployed with a wide price range (roughly $3k → ~$950M FDV). Why it matters: a locked LP only earns fees while the price is inside its range, and most launchpads pick a narrow range — so their fees stop the moment a token pumps past the ceiling. Ours spans from a cheap entry all the way to ~$950M FDV, so a token stays in range for essentially its whole trading life. Every swap keeps paying the creator and holders for as long as the token exists. That's what makes the fees genuinely "forever": even after the hype settles, launchers and holders keep collecting on any volume the token still does.

Every chain deserves memecoins — and a place where launching one is free, simple to understand, and actually fun. A fair launch with locked liquidity shouldn't be a feature you hunt for; it should be the default.

Arc's community is active and builders genuinely support each other. That's rare, and it matters more than any single feature. We believe Arc is the right place to build not just a launchpad, but the tools that make launching and trading effortless — and we want to grow with the people building here.

The smart contracts are open-source and have been adversarially reviewed and tested, but have not undergone a professional audit. We believe open source matters — anyone can read the code. We've run stress tests and everything works correctly, without failures. A formal audit will come later, as ArcPad generates revenue. Always trade only what you can afford to lose.
