Protocol documentation

Simple launches.
Permanent markets.

Robin uses isolated bonding-curve markets that remain available throughout the token's lifecycle. There is no mandatory graduation or migration step.

01

Protocol Overview

The core principles behind Robin.

Permanent Market

Robin uses a persistent Curve rather than requiring migration to another trading venue.

Isolated Curve

Every Token has its own independent pricing state and reserve accounting.

No Hidden Token Controls

The Robin Token implementation is fixed-supply and exposes no protocol mint, blacklist, freeze or transfer-tax mechanism.

Fair Inventory

The full initial supply begins inside the Token's Curve. Creator and protocol receive no free Token allocation.

Robin Token parameters: 1,000,000,000 supply with 6 decimals.
02

Permanent Curve

One market from launch through the long tail.

Classic Curve → Permanent Tail

Early trading follows the classic bonding-curve region. Later, the market transitions into a permanent tail designed so the remaining inventory cannot be completely exhausted with a finite amount of ETH.

Implemented Curve
RobinCurveMath is the authoritative integer pricing implementation. tokensSoldRaw is the market pricing state, and Buy / Sell use reserve differences from the same Curve.
03

Virtual ETH

A pricing parameter, not deposited capital.

Virtual ETH controls the starting Curve shape and initial price sensitivity. It does not mean that an equivalent amount of real ETH is deposited into the Token reserve.

Launching a Token

A minimal creation flow.

Select one of the supported Virtual ETH templates.

03
Create or Create + Buy

Create launches the Token and Market. Create + Buy atomically launches them and performs the creator's initial purchase through the same Curve and fee path used by other buys.

The creator's initial purchase is not a free allocation. It uses the normal Curve pricing and fee path.
05

Trading

Buy and sell against the Token's isolated Curve.

Buy

ETH enters the Token's accounted reserve while Token inventory leaves the Curve according to C(q).

Sell

Token inventory returns to the Curve and the corresponding ETH value leaves the accounted reserve according to the same cumulative cost function.

External ETH or Token donations should not alter official Curve pricing. Pricing uses protocol accounting state rather than raw contract balances.
06

Fees

Transparent protocol-level fees.

Create Fee
0.0005 ETH default
Protocol Fee
0.50% default
Creator Fee
0.25% default
Config-governed fees
RobinConfig is the onchain authority for creation and trading fees. The values above are protocol defaults; configured values may change through the contract's delayed, capped update process. FeeVault separately accounts for protocol and Creator fees and enforces its onchain claim and recovery eligibility rules.
07

Security Model

Reserve safety comes before feature complexity.

No unrestricted administrator withdrawal path from Token reserves.
Buy and sell accounting must remain reversible under the same cumulative cost function.
Actual reserve balance must remain greater than or equal to accounted reserve.
Sell-path correctness and reserve solvency receive the highest testing priority.
Unit, fuzz, invariant and targeted security testing are part of the protocol validation process. Testing reduces but cannot eliminate smart-contract risk.

FAQ

Common questions about the implemented Robin protocol.

Does a Token graduate to another exchange?

No. The official Robin market remains on its permanent Curve; Robin does not require a mandatory graduation or migration step.

Can external liquidity pools exist?

Yes. Third-party pools may exist, but Robin's official Curve price is derived from Robin's own Curve accounting.

Does the creator receive free Tokens?

No. The current design target gives neither the creator nor the protocol a free initial Token allocation.

Can the creator buy at launch?

Yes. Create + Buy atomically performs the initial purchase after launch, and that purchase uses the same Curve math and applicable trading fees as other buys.

Which parameters can change?

Core Token and Curve constants are implemented in the contracts. Configurable creation fees, trading fees and protocol Treasury settings are governed by RobinConfig and its delayed, contract-limited update paths.
