FAQ

Most Ethereum wallets: browser extensions such as MetaMask, Rabby or Coinbase Wallet, and mobile wallets through WalletConnect. Tap “Connect wallet” at the top of the page and choose yours. See Wallets and network.

No. When you connect, Gamapad asks your wallet to add GIWA Sepolia and switch to it. Just approve the request in your wallet.

Press “Switch to GIWA Sepolia” where the trade button normally is, or choose GIWA Sepolia (chain ID 91342) in your wallet. Always check the network before you sign.

Yes, the rules are identical. Mainnet will use a larger starting market cap and graduation target. These docs read them from the live settings, so the numbers update automatically.

Open the GIWA Sepolia faucet, paste your wallet address and request test ETH. The faucet sets its own limits, which can change.

No. On the testnet, ETH and tokens have no real value. They exist so you can try everything safely.

Every transaction pays a small network fee (gas) in ETH. Keep a little aside so you can still sell or claim later.

Go to Create, enter a name, ticker and image, optionally add a first buy, and confirm one transaction. It costs the 0.0005 ETH launch fee, plus your first buy if you add one, plus gas. See Launch a token for each step.

No. All 1 billion tokens start in the bonding curve. If you want some, buy them in the launch transaction: you’ll be the very first buyer, at the starting price.

An optional extra fee of 0–10% on every buy and sell of your token, paid to you in ETH. You set it once at launch and it can never change, so traders always know what they pay.

No. Name, ticker, image and creator tax are permanent, so double-check them before you launch.

By the bonding curve’s formula: the more ETH in the curve, the higher the price. See Bonding curve for a chart and a worked example.

No one. The curve’s formula sets the price from the ETH it holds. After graduation the Uniswap pool works the same way, using the ETH and tokens in the pool.

Yes, at any time. You sell your tokens back to the curve and receive ETH at the current curve price, minus fees. Selling lowers the graduation progress.

How much your own trade moves the price. A large buy on a young token pushes the price up a lot, so you get fewer tokens per ETH on average. Gamapad shows the impact before you trade.

The most the final amount may differ from the quote, in case other trades land before yours. If the price moves further than your setting, the transaction is cancelled and you keep your ETH; only gas is spent. A higher setting fails less often but can give you less. See Buying and selling.

Before a sale, your wallet may ask you to let Gamapad’s contract move the tokens you are selling. It’s a separate step, limited to the amount you sell, followed by the sale itself.

Common causes are a price move beyond your slippage, an expired quote, or too little ETH for gas. A failed transaction costs only gas. Look it up on the explorer; if it succeeded, balances update on Gamapad as soon as market data catches up (see Status).

When its curve has collected 5 ETH. The buy that reaches the target triggers graduation automatically. See Graduation.

It simply stays on its bonding curve. There’s no deadline: people can keep buying and selling for as long as they want.

Nothing. It’s the same token at the same address, and your balance doesn’t change. Trading simply continues in the Uniswap pool, from the same token page.

No. The pool’s liquidity is owned by a locker contract that has no withdraw function, so it stays in the pool forever.

The target was reached, but the move to Uniswap hasn’t completed yet. The ETH stays safe in the curve, anyone can retry, and selling still works.

If the move to Uniswap can’t finish in the buying transaction, the token shows as “Graduating”. The ETH stays safe in the curve and selling still works in the meantime. Anyone can retry with “Complete graduation” in the token’s trade panel; buying resumes in the pool once it completes.

Open a graduated token’s page and expand Pool details. It shows the pool ID, the Uniswap v4 PoolManager contract and the graduation transaction. Open that transaction on the explorer: in its logs, the PoolManager’s Initialize event carries the same pool ID, and ModifyLiquidity shows the ETH and tokens that went into the pool. The pool amounts on the card are read straight from the PoolManager on-chain.

A 1% standard fee on every buy and sell, plus the token’s creator tax if it has one. Creators also pay a 0.0005 ETH launch fee. All details are on the Fees page.

With every trade, on the curve and after graduation, the creator’s share goes in ETH to the fee vault. Claim it anytime from Earnings. See Creator earnings.

No. Every action is a transaction you sign in your own wallet. Your ETH and tokens stay in your wallet or in the public contracts.

Gamapad will never ask for your seed phrase or private key. Anyone who does is trying to steal your funds.

Anyone can create a token with any name or image, including copies of well-known projects. Check the contract address on the token page before you buy. See Security.

Not with the liquidity. Before graduation, all the ETH sits in the curve contract, not with the creator; after graduation it’s locked in the pool forever. The creator also gets no free tokens. But anyone who holds tokens, the creator included, can sell them at any time, and selling lowers the price.

Token prices can drop to zero, and smart contracts can have bugs. Read the risk disclosures before trading, and only use amounts you can afford to lose.
