Guide
How it works
hoodpad is a fair-launch NFT launchpad on Robinhood Chain. You upload art, a companion token launches on Pons in the same transaction, and every trade on that token pays ETH to whoever holds the NFTs. Every coin bio ends with Deployed by HoodPad so you can spot hoodpad launches.
The loop
Three things happen together when someone creates a family — and they stay linked forever after.
Create family
Upload 5+ pieces. At most 20% mints to the creator; the rest launches into a public sale.
Launch token
A companion token launches on Pons in the same transaction — same family, same economic loop.
Holders get paid
Every buy or sell of that token pays a fee into the family's rewards vault. NFT holders claim the ETH.
Fair launch
Nobody gets the whole collection. The collection contract is the first seller — rules live on-chain, not as a promise from the creator.
Creator
≤20%
Max share minted to the creator wallet at launch.
Public sale
≥80%
Mints to the collection contract and is immediately buyable by anyone at a fixed 0.001 ETH floor. No waitlist, no admin listing step.
Creator keep
Max 20%
Enforced by FamilyCollection. A creator cannot mint more than this share to themselves.
Public floor
0.001 ETH
Every public-sale piece sells at this fixed price on first purchase from the contract.
First listings
Max 0.003 ETH
If the creator lists their kept pieces at launch, asking price is capped. Recommended default is 0.001 ETH.
Rewards
Holding an NFT is how you earn. Trades on the family's token fund a vault; holders claim whenever they want.
- 1
Token trades pay a fee
Every buy or sell of the family's token on Pons takes a creator-tax fee (set at launch, capped at 10% by Pons).
- 2
Fee goes to the vault
That fee routes on-chain into the family's Rewards Vault — not to the creator's wallet.
- 3
NFT holders claim ETH
Rewards accrue per piece. Whoever holds the NFT at claim time gets that piece's share. Buy a piece later and you pick up future fees immediately.
Buy & sell
Primary
From the contract
Public-sale pieces are bought straight from the collection at 0.001 ETH. Creator-kept listings at launch stay ≤ 0.003 ETH.
Secondary
OpenSea
After the first sale, pieces trade on OpenSea. Our marketplace deep-links to the same listings — same royalty, same reward rights.
Chain & partners
- Robinhood Chain — EVM L2. Gas is paid in ETH.
- Pons — token launchpad. The companion token is created there under the hood when you create a family.
- OpenSea — secondary market. We don't run our own escrow for resales.
FAQ
Does the creator keep the whole collection?+
No — that's enforced on-chain. A creator can mint at most 20% of uploaded pieces to themselves; every other piece mints to the collection contract and is buyable at 0.001 ETH. Creator listings at launch can't exceed 0.003 ETH.
What does fair launch mean here?+
The collection contract is the first seller. Most pieces never go to the creator — they mint into a public sale at 0.001 ETH so a single wallet can't hoard the drop. After first sale, secondary trading is on OpenSea.
Where do the rewards come from?+
Every buy or sell of the family's token on Pons pays a creator-tax fee (capped at 10%). That fee routes into the family's Rewards Vault — not the creator's wallet.
Who can claim rewards?+
Whoever holds the NFTs at claim time. Rewards accrue per piece, so buying on the marketplace picks up that piece's share of future fees immediately.
How do I buy or sell a piece?+
Primary: from the collection contract (public floor 0.001 ETH). Secondary: OpenSea, or our marketplace page which deep-links to the same listing.
What chain is this on?+
Robinhood Chain — an EVM L2. Gas is paid in ETH. Tokens launch via Pons.
