What GO FUND is
GO FUND is a launchpad. You create a token, you name a fundraiser, and the token's creator fees are paid to the GO FUND treasury instead of to you. Trading the token is what generates those fees, so activity on the market becomes funding for the cause.
It is a thin layer. GO FUND does not run a chain, does not hold your keys, and does not take custody of anything. It builds one transaction, points its fee field at a fixed address, and asks your wallet to sign it. Everything after that happens on Pons, a launchpad protocol on Robinhood Chain.
The system, end to end
| Layer | Who | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Interface | GO FUND | Collects the token details, hard-sets the fee destination, builds and simulates the call. |
| Wallet | You | Holds the keys and signs. MetaMask or Rabby, connected through Privy. |
| Launchpad | Pons v2 | Deploys the token and its bonding curve, collects the launch fee, enforces the fee recipient. |
| Chain | Robinhood Chain | An Ethereum layer 2 for real-world assets. Settles every transaction. |
| Institutional access | Zerohash | Connects banks and brokerages to Robinhood Chain. Not part of a GO FUND launch — see below. |
A launch is a single transaction:
- You fill in the name, ticker and fundraiser link.
- The page reads the current launch terms from the factory and pins them into the call.
- It simulates the transaction against a node. If it would revert, you never sign.
- Your wallet signs. The factory deploys the token and its curve.
- From that point, every trade pays a creator fee to the treasury address.
The network
Robinhood Chain is an Ethereum layer 2 built for real-world assets — tokenised equities alongside ordinary tokens. GO FUND runs on its mainnet.
| Chain ID | 4663 |
|---|---|
| RPC | https://rpc.mainnet.chain.robinhood.com |
| Currency | ETH, 18 decimals |
| Explorer | robinhoodchain.blockscout.com |
The launchpad adds the network to your wallet for you if it is missing, and switches to it before building the transaction.
Where Zerohash fits
Zerohash is a regulated crypto infrastructure provider. It gives banks, brokerages and payment companies a single integration into several chains, and handles liquidity, compliance, custody and settlement on their behalf. Since July 2026 its clients can reach Robinhood Chain through it.
To be precise about this. Zerohash is part of the ecosystem around Robinhood Chain, not a component of GO FUND. A launch made here never passes through Zerohash: it is a direct contract call signed by your own wallet. GO FUND has no custody relationship with anyone.
Contracts and addresses
| Pons v2 factory | 0x7eD598BcEf8bd9Edd8C97A195C6d13f40801EC7e |
|---|---|
| GO FUND treasury | 0x2ae44108c6d48361bb39d4d36b2106df32d2075f |
| Pair token | 0x0000…0000 — the zero address means the token trades against native ETH |
| Launch config | 0 — the factory reports exactly one config, so this is the only valid id |
The treasury is an externally owned account. It is not a contract, so there is no upgrade path and no admin function behind it.
Launch economics
These values are read live from the factory each time the launch page loads.
| Setting | Value | Who sets it |
|---|---|---|
| Launch fee | 0.0005 ETH | Pons. Paid as the transaction value. |
| Supply | 1,000,000,000 at 18 decimals | Fixed by the launch config. It is not a field you fill in. |
| Creator tax | 0% – 10% | You, at launch. Paid by traders on each trade. |
| Fee destination | The GO FUND treasury | GO FUND. Not editable. |
| Graduation threshold | 4.2 ETH for ETH-paired launches | Pons. The point at which the curve completes. |
| Developer buy | Optional | You. Buys your own token in the same transaction. |
Pons also applies a decaying anti-snipe tax to buys in the first seconds after a launch. The account that launched the token is exempt from it.
The launch call
With no developer buy the page calls launchToken(params, 0, 0x0). With one it calls
launchAndBuy(...) and sends the launch fee plus the buy amount as value. What goes
into params:
| Field | Source |
|---|---|
name, symbol | Your input. The ticker is stripped to letters and digits, uppercased, capped at 11 characters. |
description, logo | Your input. Both optional. |
socials.website | The fundraiser link. |
socials.twitter | Your input. Optional. |
creatorFeeRecipient | Hard-coded to the treasury. There is no form field for it. |
creatorTaxBps | The slider, in basis points. Capped by the factory's own maxCreatorTaxBps(). |
buybackEnabled | false. |
expectedEconomics | Read from previewLaunchEconomics immediately before signing. If Pons changed the terms in between, the transaction reverts rather than launching on different ones. |
salt | 32 random bytes, generated per launch. |
How the fee lock works
The claim that a creator cannot take the fees back is worth more than a promise, so it was checked against the deployed contracts rather than the documentation.
-
The fee recipient lives on the token's bonding curve, which exposes
setCreatorFeeRecipient(address)— selector0x7b04ea62. - Simulating that call on a live curve from the token's own deployer reverts. So does calling it from an unrelated address, and from the current recipient. The curve accepts only the factory.
-
The factory exposes a pass-through,
setCreatorFeeRecipient(address,address)— selector0xe102c9aa. Simulating that as the token's creator also reverts, and so does simulating it as the current recipient.
What this means. Once a fund is live, the person who launched it cannot redirect its creator fees. The residual trust is in Pons: the factory retains an administrative path that neither the creator nor the recipient can reach. GO FUND cannot remove that, and does not claim to.
A second, narrower limit: this holds for tokens launched through this site. Anyone can call the Pons factory directly and name their own wallet. Making that impossible for everyone would require GO FUND to deploy its own factory wrapper.
Wallets and signing
Connection is handled by Privy, restricted to browser wallets — MetaMask or Rabby. There is no email login and no embedded wallet, because a launch needs a wallet that already holds ETH on Robinhood Chain.
Signing is strictly non-custodial. GO FUND is a static site: it holds no keys, runs no signing server, and has no way to move a token or a fee after launch. The only secret involved is your own, and it never leaves your wallet.
How Explore is built
The Explore page has no database behind it. In your browser it reads
TokenLaunched logs from the factory, fetches each launch transaction, decodes its
input, and keeps only those whose creatorFeeRecipient is the treasury. What you see is
derived from chain data every time the page loads.
It scans recent blocks in windows and caps how many transactions it decodes, so a very old fund may not appear. An empty list means no token has yet been launched with the treasury as its fee recipient — not that the page failed.
Verify a fund yourself
- Open the token on the explorer and find the transaction that created it.
- Decode that transaction's input against the factory ABI below.
- Read
params.creatorFeeRecipient. For a real GO FUND launch it equals the treasury address. - Read
params.creatorTaxBpsfor the trading fee, andparams.socials.websitefor the fundraiser the creator declared.
The fundraiser link is supplied by whoever launched the token. GO FUND does not verify that a fundraiser is genuine, that its owner knows about the token, or that they endorse it.
Errors you may hit
| What you see | What it means |
|---|---|
| Signature rejected | You dismissed the wallet prompt. Nothing was sent. |
| Insufficient funds | The wallet needs the launch fee plus gas, in ETH, on chain 4663. |
| A revert during simulation | The call was rejected before signing. Most often the launch terms moved between reading them and submitting; reloading and retrying re-pins them. |
| Wrong network | The page asks your wallet to switch, and to add chain 4663 if it does not know it. Both prompts need your approval. |
| Could not reach Robinhood Chain | The public RPC did not answer. Nothing was signed; retry. |
Limits and risk
- Buying a token is not a donation. It is a trade, and it may lose value, including all of it.
- A token is not a share in a fundraiser and carries no claim over any money raised.
- Nothing here is investment, legal or tax advice, and no contribution here is tax deductible.
- The bonding curve, the fee logic and the anti-snipe rules are Pons's, not GO FUND's. They can change on their side.
- Creator fees accrue to the treasury. Moving them onward to a fundraiser is an operational step, not something the contract performs by itself.
