Arcodex Whitepaper

Version 2.0 · Arc Chain Launchpad · Native USDC

Abstract

Arcodex is a memecoin launchpad built on the Arc blockchain, where USDC is the native asset — both the pricing currency and the gas token. Every token launches on a bonding curve with a fixed 1% trading fee split 70% creator · 20% platform · 10% holder dividend pool. Arcodex aggregates tokens launched across all launchpads on Arc into a single discoverable marketplace with built-in swap.

1. Problem

Launching a token today is fragmented: multiple launchpads, inconsistent fee models, unclear creator economics, and no unified view of what exists on-chain. Creators cannot easily claim fees, and traders must jump between sites.

2. Solution

Arcodex provides:

  • One-click token launch with two bonding types (Standard, Early Buy)
  • Native USDC pricing everywhere — no ETH/WETH conversions, no price confusion
  • Creator-first launch fees: 1% split 70% creator / 20% platform / 10% holder dividends
  • Holders get paid: 10% of every launch-token trade accrues to a USDC dividend pool, claimable pro-rata to balance (fee-reflection pattern)
  • Unified token index across all Arc launchpads with instant swap
  • Bridge for moving USDC onto Arc
  • Liquidity pools for post-graduation trading
  • 3. Bonding Curve

    Tokens launch on a linear bonding curve: price = startingPrice * (1 + sold / graduationThreshold)

  • Price rises linearly as supply is purchased
  • At 100% graduation, remaining supply + curve USDC migrate to a full AMM pool
  • Early buyers are rewarded with lower prices; late buyers pay more
  • Curve liquidity is always backed 1:1 by USDC held in the contract
  • Bonding Types

    TypeDescription
    StandardLinear curve, open to everyone from block one. Fair launch.

    4. Fee Model

    4.1 Launch tokens (bonding curve + pool) — 1.00% per trade

    Every buy and sell on a launch token accrues a 1% fee in USDC, split three ways:

    PartyShare of feeEffective rateGoes to
    Creator70%0.70%Creator fee wallet, claimable anytime
    Platform20%0.20%Arcodex treasury
    Holders10%0.10%USDC dividend pool, claimable pro-rata

    Holder dividends (fee reflection): 10% of every trade is deposited into a per-token USDC dividend pool. Any holder can claim their pro-rata share based on token balance — hold more, earn more. Claimed dividends are paid out in USDC directly.

    4.2 Swap existing tokens (ArcodexFeeRouter)

    Swapping tokens that already have DEX liquidity on Arc (e.g. RadarDex) through Arcodex's atomic fee router:

  • Fees accrue on-chain in USDC
  • Creators claim from their profile; the platform claims to a treasury wallet
  • No hidden fees. No gas token conversions — USDC is the native gas on Arc
  • 5. Architecture

    Arcodex dApp (Discover, Launch, Tokens, Bridge, Pool) → Arcodex API/Indexer → Smart Contracts (ArcodexBondingCurve, ArcodexPool, ArcodexFeeRouter, BondingCurveToken) → Arc Chain (native USDC, EVM compatible).

    6. Token Lifecycle

  • Launch — creator deploys token with metadata (name, symbol, description, website, socials)
  • Bonding — traders buy/sell against the curve in USDC; 1% fee accrues (70/20/10)
  • Graduation — at 100% curve sold, liquidity migrates to a full AMM pool
  • Trading — post-graduation, the token trades freely on the AMM with the same 70/20/10 split
  • Claim — creator claims 0.70%; platform claims 0.20%; holders claim 0.10% pro-rata dividends
  • 7. Security

  • Non-reentrancy guards on all value-moving functions
  • SafeERC20 for USDC transfers
  • Ownable admin functions (treasury, graduation)
  • Curve liquidity fully backed; no fractional reserves
  • Creator fees claimable only by the designated fee wallet
  • No arbitrary minting after launch; supply fixed at deployment
  • 8. Tokenomics

    9. Roadmap

  • Phase 1 — Launchpad live (bonding curves, fees, claim, holder dividends)
  • Phase 2 — Token index across all Arc launchpads + unified swap
  • Phase 3 — Bridge (LI.FI powered) + liquidity pools
  • Phase 4 — Creator analytics, X integration, governance
  • 10. Disclaimer

    Arcodex is a protocol for launching and trading community tokens. Tokens launched on the platform carry risk, including total loss. Nothing in this whitepaper is financial advice.
