Back a token before it launches on https://t.co/zC85uTzyzT.
Backers pool SOL; one instruction creates the token and buys first with that pool. A vault agent works the chart inside program limits. Creator fees: 75% vault, 15% burn, 10% backers. At 5×, backers are paid back.

• Upgrade live: the vault can now buy dips on a 5-min average, up to 20% of the vault per 5 min
Sells the rips. Burns supply. Dip buys on.
Why the $HOLD vault hasn't bought the dip yet: on-chain rules only allowed buys under a 30-min average AND under its avg sell price. It sold ~350 SOL into the run, so pullbacks didn't qualify.
Fix shipping now: 5-min average + buys on 15%+ pullbacks, bigger buys below avg sell.

The vault agent sold into strength 59 times and kept every lamport as SOL.
Past 5× (197.9 SOL): the raise is paid back when the chart is strong, 4 hours after launch at the earliest.
HOLD has been live for 18 minutes.
1,781 SOL traded, 1,792 trades, 438 holders, 597 buyers.
The raise made the first buy in the create instruction. Nothing traded before it.
Great memes, projects and narratives keep dying for one reason: supply gets swiped by the wrong hands with no conviction.
Holdfast aims to fix this. Agents buy first, the supply gets locked, and the bundle works for the chart instead of against it.

The first buyer is usually the first seller.
Normally, the wallet that buys at block 0 can sell at block 1, paid by everyone after it.
On Holdfast, the backers' pool buys first, lands in a vault, and only the rate-limited agent can sell it, by program rules.
The vault agent, in thirty seconds.
It sells into strength only above the band and the vault's cost, buys back dips only under the band and at or below cost, inside hourly budgets and a 3% impact cap. Every decision is logged.
Illustrative chart; the numbers are the program's.
