https://t.co/tycdXFCQJA is now live.

a new way to launch tokens that market-make themselves on Meteora.
every coin has its own dedicated SOL reserve, funded entirely by the trading fees generated from its own volume.
volume generates fees → fees fill the reserve → the reserve buys the coin back → every token bought is permanently burned
as the loop compounds, the token becomes increasingly reflexive. more volume builds a deeper reserve, the reserve creates recurring bid pressure, and every completed buyback permanently tightens the float.
the market maker is the coin itself.

it’s been roughly 17 hours since $metball went live.
150 SOL has already flowed through self market-making buybacks, permanently burning $16.2K of supply across 24 live coins. 2 have already graduated.
volume → fees → reserve → buybacks → burns
things are just getting started.

Custom stock pairs are now live on metball.
You can now launch self market-making tokens directly against tokenized stocks and RWAs:
$SPYx, $CRCLx, $NVDAx, solana:Xsv9hRk1z5ystj9MhnA7Lq4vjSsLwzL2nxrwmwtD3re, $TSLAx, solana:Xsa62P5mvPszXL1krVUnU5ar38bBSVcWAB6fmPCo5Zu, solana:Xs7ZdzSHLU9ftNJsii5fCeJhoRWSC32SQGzGQtePxNu, solana:XsvNBAYkrDRNhA7wPHQfX3ZUXZyZLdnCQDfHZ56bzpg, $MSTRx, $MSFTx
Each launch can now be paired directly against the asset of your choice. Trading generates fees in that paired asset, which accumulate in the reserve and fund continuous buybacks and burns.
A token paired with $NVDAx builds its reserve in $NVDAx and uses that reserve to market-make itself.

accelerando.
we’ve been live for 13 hours and have already permanently removed over 13.8% of $metball from the float.
for comparison, @LaunchOnSF has been live for over a month and burned roughly 17% of its supply.
we’ve been live for 13 hours. let that sink in.
we’re now working on custom pairs and deeper integrations across the @MeteoraAG ecosystem, allowing tokens to market-make themselves against memecoins, tokenized stocks, RWAs, and other onchain assets.
the stonk supercycle was fun, but we think there is room for an entirely new meta built around tokens that don’t just launch and trade, but actively recycle their own volume back into the mechanics governing their market.
we want metball to become one of the most configurable ways to launch on Meteora and push self market-making tokens into an entirely new category.
gmet.
apologies for the lack of communication over the last few hours.
we’ve been heads down working on what we think is one of the biggest upgrades to metball since launch.
custom pairing will be live shortly.
instead of every token market-making itself against SOL, creators will be able to choose the asset their token is paired against, including tokenized stocks, RWAs, memecoins, and other onchain assets.
this means you could launch a token paired against a tokenized stock, have its volume generate fees in that asset, and use those fees to continuously market-make the token against it.
the same applies to RWAs, memecoins, or practically any supported asset.
we want metball to become the place where creators can experiment with entirely different self market-making structures, not just launch the same mechanism with a different ticker.
custom pairs are the first major step toward that.
more soon.
it’s 10%. the docs are incorrect and are being fixed right now.
we’re also adding custom pairs to metball, allowing you to launch tokens that market-make themselves against tokenized stocks, memecoins, RWAs, and other onchain assets.
any asset can become the reserve and settlement layer behind a self market-making token, opening up entirely new mechanics for how these launches behave.
more soon.
@metballfun While launching the coin it says 75% goes to the platform. Is it 10% of fee or 75% of fee? How much of it is used to buyback and burn? Is it already implemented or currently only metball's reserves only used for BnB?
Yes, everything cycles back into solana:QrevJp2pxTYFe39SiZfGJ3koUffLtuSNdxLf2ymV8Y5.
We earn roughly 10% of creator fees on every launch and those fees are used to market buy solana:QrevJp2pxTYFe39SiZfGJ3koUffLtuSNdxLf2ymV8Y5 and burn.
Will update docs to reflect this better.
Sell pressure doesn’t change what we’re here to build.
metball exists because we believe self market-making tokens can become an entirely new category on Solana, and we’re going to keep building the product until that idea finds real market fit.
price action in the short term doesn’t change the underlying mechanics. launches are generating volume, that volume is funding buybacks, tokens are being permanently burned, and we’re learning from every launch that goes through the system.
there is still a lot we want to add, especially around making metball the most configurable place to launch a token with its own built-in market-making mechanics.
don’t let negative pa distract from what is actually being built.
products find market fit through iteration, not a perfect chart.
11.26% of the $METBALL supply has already been permanently burned.
at current prices, this equals roughly $43.7K removed from the float.
this is the compounding nature of self market-making tokens in action.

trade → reserve → buyback → burn → repeat
a continuous, self-funded bid generated by the token’s own volume.
the market maker is the coin itself.

Our goal is to quite literally create a new standard for launching tokens.
most tokens go live and from that point forward, the mechanics surrounding them are largely the same. volume comes and goes, fees are generated, but none of that activity fundamentally changes how the token operates.
we think there is far more that can be done with the mechanics behind a token.
metball starts by giving every token its own built-in engine, where the activity it generates directly funds recurring buybacks and burns. but that is only the beginning.
we want metball to become the most configurable place to launch self market-making tokens, with creators able to choose different fee structures, reserve strategies, buyback behavior, burn mechanics, and entirely new ways for a token to respond to its own activity.
there is still so much that hasn’t been explored here, and we want metball to define an entirely new category of tokens that market-make themselves.
You can track every buyback and burn directly through the metball platform wallet.

every fee claim, buyback, and burn across every launch appears here in real time and is fully verifiable onchain.
the metball is getting bigger.
$12.8K worth of tokens permanently burned across metball so far.
- 63 buybacks executed
- 10 live coins
- 1 graduated
volume funds the bid. the bid tightens the float. the loop continues to compound.
Pushed a fix for charts displaying incorrect price data.
everything is now displaying correctly across metball.
any other bugs you run into please let us know.

every single token launches with its own built-in market-making engine.
volume is what brings it to life. every trade generates fees for that token’s reserve, and that reserve becomes a recurring bid, continuously buying the token back and burning what it acquires.
the beauty of the system reveals itself as volume picks up.
more activity means more fees flowing into the reserve, larger buybacks hitting the market, and more tokens permanently removed from the float. each buyback generates fees of its own, feeding capital back into the reserve and allowing the entire loop to compound.
