How it works

A token that market makes itself.

Normal launchpads pay the creator a slice of every trade. A snowball points that slice back at its own chart. Three steps, on a loop, for as long as the token trades.

01

Every trade pays a fee

Buys and sells pay the coin's fee, 0.30% to 3.00% depending on the tier. On a snowball the coin's creator is a vault key the keeper holds, so the fee lands where no person can spend it.

02

The keeper buys back

On the tier's schedule the keeper sweeps the vault and buys the token with every lamport, on the bonding curve or on PumpSwap after it graduates. Buy pressure, funded by the token's own volume.

03

What it bought, it burns

The bought tokens are burned in the same run. Every sweep is a pair of on-chain receipts on the token page. Supply shrinks; the snowball grows.

The fee

All of it rolls. Always.

The fee is set once, at launch, by the tier you pick. From then on every sweep spends 100% of it on buying the token and burning what it bought. Nothing goes to a wallet, and it never stops: on the curve, after graduation, for the life of the token.

From a glacier to a blizzard

Pick how hard it rolls at launch: the fee every trade pays, how often the keeper sweeps, and the least it sweeps at a time.

Buy pressure that never sleeps

Nobody has to tweet, vote or remember. Volume becomes buybacks on a timer, in bull markets and in boredom alike.

Supply only shrinks

Burned tokens are gone from the mint, not parked in a wallet. Every holder's share of the supply rises with each sweep.

Nothing to trust

The vault key is derived, not stored. The keeper can only ever buy and burn. Every sweep leaves two signatures you can check.

Start one rolling.

Name it, pick a tier, launch. The first sweep lands as soon as the vault fills.
