How the hive works

Every launch is a single transaction. The factory deploys a fixed-supply 1B token, seeds a Uniswap V4 pool through the GlueHook singleton with the entire supply placed as a single-sided range above the start price, and then surrenders ownership of that position to the zero address.

That surrender is the whole point. The liquidity can never be removed by anyone — including the creator, and including us. There is no admin key, no migration event and no rug path. The creator keeps an operator role that can tune fee splits, but it cannot touch the LP.

The concentrated single-sided range is the bonding curve. Buyers swap ETH in and walk the price up the range; that ETH accrues inside the locked position. Every launch starts around a $4,536.11 market cap, targeted at the live ETH price.

The bond is the market cap where the seeded 1B tokens run dry:

The curve

$55.6K

Reaching the bond is not a migration. Trading simply continues on the accrued ETH plus whatever liquidity the compounding has re-added. There is never a migration event, and nothing about the pool changes at that moment.

Each pool carries a program config that routes trading fees automatically, with zero keepers and zero admin buttons:

• Buyback share — ETH-side fees flow into the pot, which buys the token back inside future buys.
• Burn share — Token-side fees are burned — a real ERC20 burn, permanently reducing supply.
• Compound share — Fees are folded back into the locked liquidity, deepening it forever.
• The shield — A funded pot absorbs part of every sell, softening red candles.

Anyone can also donate ETH straight into a pot — “feed the pot”. Donations are irreversible and become permanent buyback fuel.

A note on reading the pot. A pot balance near zero is a healthy pot, not an empty one — it spends itself on every buy by design. Cumulative spend is the number that tells you the machine is working.

• Launch fee: a flat 0.002 ETH plus gas — an anti-spam measure, swept to the platform treasury.
• Pool fee: 1% per swap. Half of it is the platform’s slice; the other half belongs to the token and is split by the program config between pot, burn, compound and the creator. Token pages show how that token half is divided.
• Platform slice: a fixed 50% of every pool fee, enforced by the splitter contract and the same for every token. It funds Honeypad and cannot be raised against a token after launch.

GlueHook is self-audited by its authors with a 123-test suite. It has NOT received an external audit. Use a size appropriate to unaudited DeFi.

Our factory contract is small — about 6.7KB of runtime — and was exercised end to end on the Robinhood Chain testnet: launch, first buy, sell into the shield, burn cascade and public harvest, all verified on-chain.

GlueHook is licensed BUSL 1.1. Building on the deployed singleton is explicitly authorised by its licence; Honeypad builds on the deployed contract at 0xb21607…7a60C8 and never copies or redeploys its code.

• Remove or withdraw the liquidity. Ever.
• Withdraw the pot.
• Mint new tokens — supply is fixed, with no owner functions on the ERC20.
• Block harvests — harvesting is forced public at launch.

Every one of those is verifiable on-chain by any holder in about thirty seconds. Sell it as a feature.
