Creator fees that stick.
Every fee, back into the coin.
Every trade of a Pons coin pays its creator a fee. Flywheel makes the creator a contract nobody controls. When enough fees pile up, anyone presses Buzz, and the contract buys the coin in small fixed lots and burns them. Nobody can pause it, take the money, or point it elsewhere.
A lot is one 0.01 ETH buy. You keep one thing: the tokens from your own first buy. Whoever presses Buzz gets 2% of each lot as a thank-you.

Every ETH-paired Pons launch, newest first, read from the Pons factory. Adopting one needs a signature from the wallet that receives its fees today.
Choose. Hatch. Buzz.
- 01Choose a preset
Snowball burns every lot it buys. Half burn burns half and keeps half forever. Buy and hold keeps everything forever. Nothing can be changed later.
- 02Hatch through Pons
Connect your wallet and sign three times: create the flywheel, launch on Pons with it as creator, connect the two. Or adopt a coin that already exists.
- 03Buzz and watch
When the fees cover a lot, anyone presses Buzz: the contract buys up to 5 lots, burns, and pays the presser 2%. Every lot is a receipt on the coin's page.
Same idea. Nobody holding the wheel.
A normal snowball coin sends the creator fees to a bot that a person runs. If that person turns it off, sells, or just stops paying for the server, the snowball stops. Flywheel puts the bot inside a contract nobody can touch, and pays strangers to keep it turning.
| Normal snowball bot | Flywheel | |
|---|---|---|
| Who holds the fees | A wallet the dev controls | A contract with no owner and no withdraw |
| Can it be switched off | Yes, any time | No. There is no off switch, and the creator role can never be handed on |
| Who does the buying | The dev's server, if it is running | Anyone who presses Buzz, and they get paid 2% of each lot for it |
| How big are the buys | Whatever the bot decides | Always 0.01 ETH lots, at most 5 per buzz, 30 seconds apart |
| After the coin graduates | Usually stops | Keeps buying, through the Uniswap pool |
| Proof it happened | Screenshots and promises | Every lot is a receipt on chain, on the coin's page |
The Operator is the small part of the contract that thinks. Every time someone presses Buzz it looks at the chain and answers three questions: is there enough fuel for a lot, has it rested long enough since the last buzz, and is the coin still on its bonding curve or already in the Uniswap pool. Then it buys in the right place, burns, and pays the presser. No settings, no dashboard, no one to bribe.
Know what happens next.
›Does the flywheel hold my tokens?
Only what it buys with fees, and only in presets that keep a share instead of burning it. It can never sell. Your own first buy goes to your wallet, not the contract.
›When does a buzz happen?
Whenever the Operator says a lot is affordable: fees claimed plus fees pending cover one lot plus the bounty, and the rest interval has passed. Anyone can press Buzz; bots will too.
›Can I adopt any Robinhood token?
Any ETH-paired token launched on Pons V2, as long as the wallet that receives its creator fees today signs one transfer. Tokens paired with other assets cannot bind.
›How do I verify the amounts?
Every number on a fly's page is read from the contract and the token, and every lot is recorded on chain. Open the contract on Blockscout and compare.
›Can anyone change it later?
No. There is no owner, no pause, no withdraw, no upgrade, and no way to hand the fee role on. The one outside power is Pons' own owner, who can re-point a recipient after a public 3-day timelock.
›Will my coin show up on Pons?
Yes. A hatch is an ordinary Pons launch through their router. It appears on ponsfamily.com like any other coin, with your wallet as deployer and the flywheel as creator.
