Buy, sell and launch memes. 100% of trading fees go to creators and buybacks. Powered by Uniswap V4. https://discord.gg/flaunch | https://t.me/flaunchgg

Memecoin trading generates billions in trading fees but nearly all of that value ends up in the pockets of exchanges instead of the creators and communities that power them.

@flaunch, live on @base, gives creators and communities 100% of trading fees instead of extracting value like traditional platforms. Here's how it works and what it could mean for the future of memecoins:

What Flaunch built

Built on @uniswap's new v4 hooks, Flaunch introduces three key innovations which realign memecoin incentives:

1. Fair launches that work
New tokens launch with a 30-min fixed price window. Everyone who buys during this window gets the same price, whether you're Suzie Retail or the world's best MEV bot — no more launch sniping or front running.

Early buyers can exit during this window at their entry price (minus fees), removing the usual market manipulation risks. After 30 minutes, the market takes over with price discovery as normal + but with built in price support (see #3).

2. Revenue goes to creators/communities
Every trade has a 1% fee that Flaunch sends directly to creators and community treasuries in real-time. Creators decide the split upfront, from taking 0% to keeping 100% of fees.

For example, an 80:20 creator:treasury split means .8% of every trade goes to the creator and .2% goes to supporting the token price. For successful memecoins like WIF and MOTHER, that could mean $10m+/year in income for their creators instead of enriching traditional memecoin platforms and exchanges.

This revenue stream are tokenized with a ownership NFT ("Memestreams") which, like any NFT, can be fractionalized and traded to change the details of ownership (more on why this matters below).

3. Progressive bid walls (price support)
The community's share of fees automatically deploys as limit orders just below the current token price. As the price rises, these support walls follow — creating an ever-growing buffer against sudden drops and market manipulation. This gives tokens organic and predictable price support without needing complex tokenomics or manual order placing from the creators.

Here's how these features build into something that's more than the sum of their parts:

Why it matters

When creators earn ongoing revenue instead of just launch profits, they have real reasons to stick around. Imagine a creator earning $50k or $500k /month in trading fees vs hoping for a quick launch flip. This fundamentally changes the incentive from a quick pump & dump to long-term community building.

But this goes deeper than just simple payouts. These revenue streams are tokenized as NFTs ("Memestreams") which represent the right to collect those trading fees. Want an advance on your next year of fees? Want to divide it as equity to your community managers/biggest advocates? These revenue streams become real financial assets that creators can use however they want.

Uniswap v4's most interesting development isn't it's features, it's how it's turning Uniswap's competitors into its customers.

Breaking down defi's next major platform play 👇

The tech enabling this, Uniswap's v4 hooks [https://warpcast.com/michael/0xcd6c7ddb], is just as important as what they're enabling. Hooks let protocols customize what happens before and after trades, opening up entirely new models for token creation. And despite how much Flaunch has already built, this feels like we're just scratching the surface of what's possible.

Where this could lead

We're watching new models for community coordination emerge. Imagine a memecoin treasury with $5m/month in incoming capital. That can power token buybacks, of course, but it can also be used for BD, content creation, salary payments, investment, and whatever else communities dream up.

This could have enough power to shift the whole market from short-term speculation to sustainable growth. Instead of 2-day pumps, communities can coalesce around predictable revenue streams and compounding growth. Creators can know they have tools to justify the upfront investment of getting a community off the ground.

The cultural impact could be the most interesting. If you hear 'community funded wallet', 'shared investment', and 'predictable revenue streams' and think it sounds a lot like 2021 DAOs I would agree. Tools like Flaunch may finally deliver on the promises that a thousand Mirror posts made re: how our organizations will evolve.

When Flaunch launched it cost $30 to create a token, but soon even that small hurdle will go away. This means anyone with an idea and community can experiment with these powerful new primitives. Head to flaunch.gg to give it a shot. The next step in memecoins arrived, it just needs builders like you to shape it.

✌️

Hey good question — by default the community funds go towards the bid wall but the creator can choose to send part of those to a community treasury instead. So instead of the 80:20 creator:treasury model I used as an example it could be more like 80:10:10 creator:price support:treasury

The exact splits are up to the creator when they set up the token

Great thread as always

Question about community treasury - i believe flaunch’s hooks buyback the original token? Do you mean a different model or do they have another version
