$CLANKTON is upgrading to $WORD... the native token for @letshaveaword
Hold it for bonus guesses. Earn it from bonus words and streaks. Stake it for yield. And best of all: every trade funds bigger prize pools.
📋 WHAT’S HAPPENING
We’re using @kompreni’s Upgrader tool to migrate CLANKTON holders to $WORD. It’s not a swap; it’s a coordinated upgrade where all deposited CLANKTON gets sold in a single transaction, and the ETH proceeds launch $WORD with you as day-one holders.

💭 WHY THIS UPGRADE?
tbh CLANKTON was always going to get shoehorned into my projects.
Of everything I’ve built so far, Let’s Have A Word! has the most traction and gives CLANKTON the most actual utility. But “most utility” isn't the same as “designed for this.” CLANKTON wasn’t built for LHAW... it was retrofitted.
Rather than keep forcing a token into places it wasn’t designed for, I’m giving CLANKTON a graceful death and resurrection as $WORD: a token with real, native utility in the game.
It’s not a rebrand. $WORD is what CLANKTON should have been from the start: a token where holding it matters, trading it funds the prizes, and the game and token grow together.
📊 THE SPLIT
→ 40% to depositors: CLANKTON holders who deposit get $WORD pro-rata
→ 40% to liquidity pool: enables trading on Uniswap V4
→ 20% to game treasury: locked, then vests; funds jackpots + development
🤝 GUARANTEED MINIMUM FOR CURRENT BONUS HOLDERS
If you hold 100M+ CLANKTON as of February 6 and deposit, you’re protected.
Your pro-rata share might be less than the new $WORD bonus threshold depending on total deposits. If that happens, we’ll airdrop the difference to ensure you still qualify for bonus guesses.
You believed in the game early... you won’t lose your bonus status in the upgrade.
⚙️ HOW $WORD WORKS
Every trade generates fees that flow back to the game:
- 50% → Game treasury (bigger jackpots)
- 25% → Buyback & stake pool (rewards via in-game staking)
- 15% → Player rewards (bonus words, streaks)
- 10% → Top 10 / Referral pool (ETH + $WORD)
The flywheel: More trading → bigger prizes → more players → more demand → more trading
CLANKTON couldn’t do this. $WORD is built for it.
🤲 HOLDER BENEFITS
Hold $WORD, get bonus guesses:
- Below $250K market cap: +2 guesses/day
- Above $250K market cap: +3 guesses/day
Same structure as CLANKTON, but now your token holding directly funds the game you're playing.

🤔 FAQ
Q: What if I don’t deposit my CLANKTON?
A: You keep CLANKTON, but it won't have game utility after the upgrade. $WORD becomes the token that grants bonus guesses.
Q: Can I withdraw after depositing?
A: Yes, until February 6. After that, it’s locked for the upgrade.
Q: I have 100M+ CLANKTON and get bonus guesses now. Will I still get them after the upgrade?
A: Yes. If you deposit and your pro-rata $WORD amount is below the new bonus threshold, we’ll airdrop the difference. Current bonus holders are protected.
Q: What's the total $WORD supply?
A: 1 billion tokens.
Q: Is there a minimum deposit?
A: No minimum to participate. However, very small deposits may result in small $WORD amounts.
Q: What happens to the treasury allocation?
A: The 20% is locked, then vests linearly. This funds ongoing jackpot growth and game development.
Q: What about the current CLANKTON LP?
A: The upgrade sells all deposited CLANKTON into the existing LP. That ETH launches $WORD.
Q: What happens to CLANKTON after the upgrade?
A: It'll still exist, but with no game utility. The LP will likely drain as remaining holders sell. It’s a graceful sunset, not a rug.
