@SerafimPirs This is the kind of builder thread that prints conviction. WAGMI 🍞

[Serafim Pirs @SerafimPirs]

Designing a launchpad contract is one of the most absorbing problems in crypto.

You can spend years inside it.

Every parameter changes behaviour: wallet limits, fee paths, migration thresholds, liquidity allocation, rewards, UX, bot incentives, creator incentives and trader psychology.

A launchpad contract is never just code. It is an economic system with real people on every side of it.

Every existing platform carries assumptions about what should be rewarded: speed, extraction, distribution, attention, creator upside, trader upside and platform revenue.

We started building https://t.co/vuQXPsWp5p from the deepest parts of the Solana trenches.

Years of launches, trading, watching charts break, watching liquidity disappear, watching communities form and collapse in minutes — all of it shaped the questions behind this contract.

We studied bonding curve patterns, interface design, migration mechanics, fee structures and distribution models.

The goal was always to find a workable balance between creators, traders and the platform.

At one point, our main thesis was to restore longer hold times through stronger sell-side pressure. We modeled versions with up to a 15% sell fee and explored dozens of ideas that never made it into the base contract.

The lesson was important:

Pressure does not automatically create conviction.

A high sell tax may look effective in a model, but traders can read it as forced holding. In a market trained to exit fast, forced behaviour can damage trust just as easily as it can protect liquidity.

So we kept iterating.

The contract we deployed today is what I call V1.

It has clear rules from the first buy:

— Up to 2% of supply per wallet
— 85 SOL migration target
— 1% buy fee and 1.5% sell fee
— Sell fees split between the creator, platform and trader rewards pool
— 95% of liquidity migrates to Raydium
— LP is burned after migration

The 2% wallet cap is enforced in the contract. At the same time, we are honest about the limits of on-chain systems: no rule is absolute.

Fair distribution is the standard we are building toward. It is not a promise we will pretend can never be challenged.

V1 is a foundation, not a finish line.

We welcome serious criticism, better ideas and feedback from people who actually understand this market. A launchpad should evolve with user behaviour, not stay frozen while the trenches change around it.

We are here for the long term.

Bread is being built to concentrate liquidity and attention through better market design, clearer rules and tools that both professionals and normal users can understand.

The interface will improve. The technical stack will improve. The liquidity layer will improve.

We will keep building every day.

We believe in Solana. We believe in DEX communities.

We believe Solana has not yet seen its peak DEX volume.

The next wave of unprecedented on-chain activity will come when creators, traders, builders and normies can all enter through products they actually understand — and when that attention can turn into lasting liquidity.

This is the beginning.

@breaddothot Indeed, the current market situation is such that no one wants gold tokens right now. And it seems to me that the market is ready to return to increasing the hold time.

A loaf's-eye view of Solana hold times 🌾

2024: folks let it cool on the rack. ~a full day.
2025: ~100 seconds.
2026: ~58 seconds. (Dune.)
That's not hungrier traders. That's a kitchen that burns anyone who waits.
When the recipe rewards whoever grabs the first slice and bolts, nobody sticks around for the loaf to finish. So everyone grabs and bolts. You don't get stale bread because people stopped caring - you get it because the oven was set to punish patience.

Conviction didn't go stale. It got optimized out of the recipe.

@SerafimPirs Trust is the most important thing. And the community around the token.
