How a geode grows
Every coin launched on Geode is a closed geode. Each hour it holds 90% of its 24-hour high grows a crystal layer inside. At 24, 72, 168 and 336 held hours the geode cracks open a little more and a pre-signed slice of the dev's bag is burned.
The held hour
Once an hour, Geode reads the coin's market cap on its LaunchLab pool. If it is at least 90% of the highest of the previous 24 readings, the hour is held and one layer grows. A missed reading counts as not held. An hour that is not held removes nothing: it just adds nothing.
The rule is plain arithmetic on public readings: no model, no judgement, nothing anyone at Geode decides.
Four openings
At launch the dev reserves a share of their dev buy (50% by default) and cuts it into 4 slices weighted 1, 2, 3 and 5. Each slice is a burn the dev signs in their own wallet before launch, on its own durable nonce, so it stays valid until it is used.
| Opening | Held hours | Share of the reserve |
|---|---|---|
| First crack | 24 | 1/11, about 9% |
| The halves part | 72 | 2/11, about 18% |
| A week of holding | 168 | 3/11, about 27% |
| Fully open | 336 | 5/11, about 45% |
When the geode reaches an opening, Geode submits that slice's signed burn. A burn is final: those tokens leave the supply. Each slice is shown on the coin's page as ARMED, BURNED or CANCELLED.
The dev can break their word, by selling below a slice or using up its nonce. The chain then refuses the burn and the slice turns red, for good. Buying back does not repair it.
Fees
A coin launched here is a normal Stonks coin, on its normal LaunchLab pool. 1% to StonkFun and 0.25% to Raydium per trade, 0% to the creator, 0% to Geode. The launch itself is free: Geode adds no fee to the creation.
Each slice needs a small durable nonce account. Its rent is the dev's and comes back when they press "Reclaim rent" on the coin's page once the slice is finished.
What Geode never does
- Hold a key, a token or a coin. There is no vault, no treasury, no site wallet.
- Sign for anyone. Every transaction is signed in the dev's own wallet.
- Decide anything by judgement: held hours are arithmetic on public readings.
- Promise a price. The geode measures how long a coin holds; burns reduce supply by a known %, nothing more.
Questions
What is a held hour?
Once an hour, Geode reads the coin's market cap on its LaunchLab pool. If it is at least 90% of the highest of the previous 24 readings, the hour is held and a crystal layer grows. A missed reading counts as not held. An hour that is not held removes nothing.
What gets burned, and when?
The dev's reserved share (50% of the dev buy by default), cut into 4 slices weighted 1 / 2 / 3 / 5, burned at 24, 72, 168 and 336 held hours: about 9%, 18%, 27% and 45% of the reserved share.
Who holds the tokens until then?
No one but the dev. Geode keeps only the signed transaction and submits it when the geode opens. No key ever touches our server.
Can the dev cancel?
Yes, by selling below a slice or using up its nonce. The chain refuses the burn and the slice shows CANCELLED in red, for good.
Why launch here and not straight on Stonks?
Same coin, same Stonks pool, same fees, and on top: a free full launch, automatic public burns, and a living object and public page for every coin.
Is this a promise about price?
No. Nothing here is advice, and no outcome is promised.
