thicc$THICC
The launchpad's own coin. It's paired with PUMP, keeps all of its own fees in its pool, and is bought and burned by every other coin's fees.
| Pair | PUMP |
| Creator fee | 1% |
| Its own fees | 100% into the THICC/PUMP pool |
| Other coins' fees | 10% of every public coin's creator fees buys and burns $THICC |
| Supply | 1,000,000,000 at launch, decreasing with every burn |
Genesis
$THICC is launched first, from the owner's wallet, paired with PUMP at 1%. Right after launch its Pump fee sharing is set to send 100% of creator fees to THICC's fee account, and the router registers it. From then on the owner receives no creator fees from it; they all go to its pool.
Launches open at graduation
Public launches stay closed until $THICC graduates to PumpSwap. The switch is on-chain: open_launches checks that $THICC's bonding curve is complete and that its canonical pool exists. Anyone can trigger it, and nobody can open launches before that point.
Burns
Burns use the token program's burn instruction, so total supply actually decreases. Nothing is sent to a "dead" wallet. Each burn is:
- Paid for by one specific coin's buyback share, recorded against that coin.
- Bought from the THICC/PUMP pool, and refused if it returns less than 97% of the pool's quote.
- Emitted as a
BurnedThiccevent and shown in activity feeds.
