Coming soon: ballast-sdk.
One package that lets any bot, wallet, agent or website launch tokens on Ballast from its own interface: pairing, fee split and parent token included.
The SDK builds the transaction, your user signs it. Same hook, same fee routing, same locked liquidity.

31,091,759 $BALLAST sent to the dead address so far, ≈3.1% of supply.
15.38M of that came from 70 platform buybacks: 20% of every swap fee on every ballast launch buys $BALLAST on the open market and destroys it.
no owner. no keeper. anyone can trigger it.

$ballast
ballast coded.
People keep sending us this one, so here's why.
Robinhood is exploring a Stock Token linked to an actively managed ETF, with T. Rowe Price. Still exploring, nothing launched. But it says something clear about where Robinhood Chain is going: more real-world assets, from bigger names, sitting on-chain next to everything else.
That's the world Ballast was built for.
What Ballast is
A token launchpad on Robinhood Chain where launches can be backed by stock tokens. Every token runs on our Uniswap v4 hook, and every swap pays a fee that the hook splits on the spot: 80% to the token's creator side, 20% to the platform.
How a launch works
→ 1B supply minted straight into the pool. No team bag, no presale, no creator allocation.
→ Liquidity locked permanently.
→ Pair with ETH, a stock token, or both.
→ Creators earn from swap fees over time, not from a bag.
Treasuries that hold stocks
Each token can have a treasury holding stock tokens like NVDA, SPY or SGOV. The creator picks the terms: locked forever, or a 7, 30 or 90-day public notice before anything can be withdrawn. Stock baskets let creators fill a treasury with up to 6 stock tokens in one ETH payment, routed through Fables or Ramses.
Every treasury is public at ballasted.fun/app/backing. No wallet needed to look.
One listing rule
A stock token is listed on Ballast only if its price can be read from a public Chainlink feed anyone can check. No feed, no listing. 16 stock tokens pass that rule today. If an ETF-linked Stock Token ships on Robinhood Chain with a public feed, it goes through the same door as every other asset.
Fee routing
Creators can split their fee share between themselves, buying back and burning their own token, and holders who stake. Splits run on-chain, changes take 7 days, and every token page shows what runs now and what's coming.
Liquidity that can't be pulled
Any Ballast launch can add one-sided liquidity on Ramses, locked forever in Ramses' own locker.
Burns
27.2M $BALLAST sent to the dead address: 12.2M from the platform's buyback & burn, 15M bought personally on Fomo and burned. About 2.7% of supply.
What's next (in development, no dates)
→ fee splits active from the first swap
→ token families: child tokens whose fees buy and burn their parent
→ stock round-ups: round up every swap into a stock token, straight into your own wallet
Institutions are bringing the assets. Ballast is where you launch next to them.
Holding a token gives no claim, redemption right, or entitlement to treasury assets.

We’re exploring a Stock Token linked to an actively managed ETF on Robinhood Chain, alongside @TRowePrice_DA, one of the world’s largest asset managers with $1.9T AUM. If successful, it would be the first Stock Token of its kind.
Institutions are here, and our rails are ready.

What's next for Ballast.
3 things we're building next and 8 we're exploring.
BUILDING NEXT
1. Limit orders
Set a price and walk away. A new hook generation fills the order on-chain when the market gets there. Existing launches stay on their own hook. New hooks are always opt-in at launch.
2. Launch templates
One click picks the pairing, treasury basket and fee routing. "AI token" pairs NVDA, "Index" pairs SPY, "Cash-like" pairs SGOV. Every field stays editable before you sign.
3. Share cards
Every backing, burn and split change turns into a ready-to-post card with the tx link, so on-chain activity becomes something you can share in one click.
EXPLORING
1. Token families
A child token sends part of its fees to buy and burn its parent. Big tokens get a reason to grow an ecosystem instead of competing with it.
2. Token mergers
Token A acquires token B. B holders swap in at a fixed on-chain ratio and B's treasury joins A's. Both creators sign, with 7 days of public notice before anything executes.
3. Alliance pools
Allied tokens open direct pools with each other, so holders rotate without going through ETH. The fees from those pools go to both treasuries.
4. Team split
Split the creator share across your team: dev, artist, mods. It only touches the creator share. Buyback, stakers and treasury keep their own rules.
5. Ballast it
Tokens launched somewhere else can plug in a Ballast treasury, fee routing and a public backing page. No relaunch, no migration.
6. Fair pre-launch pools
Commit ETH before launch. Everyone gets in at the same first price, so sniping gives no edge. If the launch is cancelled, everyone is refunded.
7. Stock airdrops
A creator can use their own fees to send stock tokens like NVDA to holders. It comes from creator fees, never from the treasury. A one-off gift, not a dividend, and nothing is promised.
8. Open SDK with referral
Bots, wallets and other apps can launch on Ballast through an SDK and earn a referral share, paid on-chain.
Some of these will ship, some won't, and the order can change. The filter stays the same: something real underneath, visible on-chain.

One-sided liquidity, locked for good. Live on Robinhood Chain.
Here's how it works 🧵
CryptoCrew(8J69) retweeted
Fee routing is live on ballast
Choose where the creator side of every swap fee goes.
→ you
→ buyback & burn of your token
→ stakers who hold it
Presets or your own split. A FeeRouter contract splits it on-chain. No owner. Split changes take effect 7 days after they're scheduled.

shipped stock baskets on ballast.
if you launched a token with us, you can now back it with a basket of stock tokens in one flow. one ETH payment in, up to 6 stocks out, straight into your token's treasury.
how it works 👇
CryptoCrew(8J69) retweeted
Stock baskets are live on ballast.
Open any launch's Backing page. add basket. pick a preset or set your own weights, pay once in ETH, and the basket lands in the token's treasury.
Each leg routes via Fables or Ramses. If one fails, the whole swap reverts.

building ballast: memecoins paired with stock tokens on v4, our hook runs on every swap.
splits work through a multiplier, not rebasing. that's why AMM pools work at all.
will @RobinhoodCrypto keep that standard for every corporate action so contracts don't break? @vladtenev
CryptoCrew(8J69) retweeted
stock baskets are coming to ballast.
a creator pays once in ETH. ballast splits it into up to 6 stock tokens and deposits them into that token's treasury.
presets to start fast:
• AI chips: $NVDA, $AMD, $PLTR
• index: $SPY, $QQQ
• cash-like: $SGOV
• or build your own
every leg is checked against its chainlink feed before it fills. one leg fails, the whole thing reverts.
holding the token gives no claim, redemption right, or entitlement to treasury assets.

Two things we're building next on Ballast.
01 · Stock baskets
Back a launch with more than one stock. Pay once in ETH, and it's split by weight into up to 6 listed stock tokens (NVDA, SPY, QQQ, SGOV and more), then deposited into that token's treasury. The basket shows live on the token page: every asset, its weight, and whether it's withdrawable with notice or locked for good.
02 · Limit orders in the hook
Set a price to buy or sell. Your order sits in the pool as liquidity owned by the Uniswap v4 hook. When a swap moves the price fully past your level, the hook fills it inside that same swap. No keeper, no off-chain matching. Cancel anytime before it fills.
Both are in development. Limit orders come with the next hook, for new launches.
Holding a token gives no claim on treasury assets.

the extraction model works because devs get supply for free and dump it on whoever shows up. take that away and the incentive flips
that's how we built ballast on robinhood chain.
this is absolutely fucking vile. and it’s only a distinct case of 25 devs launching close to a million coin extracting more than 120m.
probably 80% of onchain volume is a gigantic bundle farm rapefest and we’re wondering why the trenches are cooked
we need an onchain renaissance
and @Hoookedpad fixes this with social apps native coins

Introducing Open Treasury.
Every token on ballast now has an Open Treasury vault. Anyone can deposit a listed stock token ($NVDA, $SGOV, $SPY and more) into it.
• Deposit any listed stock token. Your weight is its USD value at deposit.
• Your principal stays yours: same asset, 1:1, withdrawable after 24 hours.
• Rewards sent to the vault, usually from the creator's share of trading fees, are streamed to depositors by weight over 7 days.
• The vault has no owner, no admin and no pause. Nobody can move or block a deposit.
Every swap on ballast already pays 1% to our @Uniswap v4 hook. Open Treasury gives that fee flow a place to land.
Rewards depend on what is sent to the vault and can be zero. Holding a token gives no claim on treasury assets.

Most launchpads hand you a bonding curve and hope it graduates. $Ballast puts 100% of supply straight into Uniswap v4 pools, opens at 1 ETH fully diluted, and lets the same token trade against ETH and a real stock from block one.
Pons, LONG and Ballast have one thing in common: tokens paired with tokenized stocks on Robinhood Chain.
That's where the similarity ends. Here's how Ballast is built.
