# Roadmap
ZeroTick ships in phases. Each version keeps everything before it and layers on more. This page explains what V1 covers, what is planned for V2, and what sits further out.
{% hint style="info" %}
V2 describes planned work, and its scope and sequencing can still change.
{% endhint %}
### The release path
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
#### V1: the current release
V1 is the ZeroTick bonding curve. Every launch runs on ZeroTick's own curve contracts, and the fairness protections are part of the launch itself.
* **The ZeroTick bonding curve.** One curve for every launch, using the constant-product formula (x × y = k) with virtual reserves. Price rises smoothly as people buy, and falls as people sell.
* **Automatic graduation.** A token starts at a market value of about $4,000 to $5,000 and graduates once its market cap reaches roughly $69,000, which takes a raise of about $14,300 into the curve. All figures are approximate and are fixed in the curve's quote asset, not in dollars, so a USDC-quoted launch is dollar-stable while a natively quoted launch's dollar figures move with that coin's price. The buy that completes the curve fills only what is left, pays the fee only on the filled portion, and refunds the excess.
* **Migration to a DEX.** At graduation the liquidity moves to a DEX. There is a brief pause while the pool is created, then trading resumes automatically on the new pool. Solana launches migrate to Meteora DAMM v2 or Raydium CPMM, chosen by the creator. Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain, and Monad launches migrate to Uniswap v4. On Meteora and Uniswap v4 the liquidity is locked permanently but its fees stay claimable, and that stream splits 65% to the creator and 35% to ZeroTick. On Raydium the liquidity is burned and its fees compound into the pool for holders, so neither the creator nor ZeroTick earns from it.
* **Fairness protections.** Anti-Insider and Anti-Bundle apply to every launch. Anti-Whale, the buy limit, the anti-snipe fee and window, and the sell throttle are set by the creator at launch and frozen from that point on. See the table below.
* **Two ways to launch.** Quick launch is two steps plus a security review, with the recommended protection values pre-filled. Advanced launch is five steps and adds the full curve configuration, the fee recipient split, token allocation and vesting, and the migration venue.
* **A flat 2% curve fee.** Every trade on the curve pays 2%, on buys and on sells. On a direct trade, 1.25% goes to ZeroTick and 0.75% to the creator. On a trade sent in by an integrator, 1.15% goes to ZeroTick, 0.65% to the creator, and 0.20% is paid to that integrator through the ZeroTick referral system. The creator share is carved out on-chain as each trade settles, and it accrues in the curve state until the creator claims it. After graduation the fee steps down as the pool's market cap grows, from 1.5% to 1.2%, 0.9%, 0.6%, and a floor of 0.3%, and the DEX charges its own pool fee on top.
* **Free to create, nothing to pay at graduation.** Creating a token is free. ZeroTick charges no graduation fee, so creators pay nothing at graduation and have nothing to sign.
* **Cross-chain trading.** Buy or sell any listed token with an asset you already hold on another supported chain. ZeroTick converts it for you and delivers the token to your wallet on the token's chain.
* **Marketplace.** Live token discovery in three columns, New launch, Bonding soon, and Migrated, covering ZeroTick launches alongside tokens that trade on other platforms.
* **Discover.** A ranked token table with Trending, New, and Fast rise views.
* **Trading with TradingView charts.** Full charts with market and limit order types.
* **Copy trading.** Follow another trader and copy their buys and sells automatically from a dedicated copy wallet you fund, with per-trade, daily, and total-budget limits. A 15% performance fee applies to realized profit only, and it is shared with the trader you copy.
* **Embedded wallet.** A non-custodial MPC wallet built into the platform, with an address on every supported chain.
* **Portfolio.** Holdings, deposits, withdrawals, and swap history in one place.
* **Rewards and referrals.** Earn points from tasks and quests, climb the rank tiers, and invite others with your referral link, which pays three layers deep at 35%, 5%, and 3%. Your rank never changes the fee you pay.
* **Profile and your tokens.** Manage the tokens you launched and your trading activity.
* **Notifications.** Trade and launch alerts.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
#### V2: planned
V2 adds MEV resistance at the execution layer, and one more chain.
* **Anti-MEV.** Randomized execution ordering with commit-reveal, so the order and timing of trades stop being predictable and bundling loses the determinism it relies on. It shows on launches as coming in V2 and cannot be set yet.
* **Sui.** Sui joins the chains you can trade and launch on.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
### Protections by version
Each protection targets one specific way a launch can be gamed. Anti-Insider and Anti-Bundle apply to every V1 launch and are not configurable. The five configurable protections are set by the creator at launch. Anti-MEV arrives in V2.
| Protection | What it does | Status |
| ----------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------ |
| Anti-Insider | ZeroTick does not disclose the contract address before go-live; it is revealed to everyone at the same moment, so nobody can buy before everyone else can. It does not restrict the creator from buying once trading opens | Always on in V1 |
| Anti-Bundle | A buy can deliver tokens only to the wallet that signed it, and every transaction is capped by the buy limit, so one transaction cannot spread a purchase across many wallets | Always on in V1 |
| Anti-Whale | Caps how much of the supply any single wallet can buy from the curve. Default 2% | Set by the creator in V1 |
| Buy limit | Caps the size of each trade, on buys and on sells. Default 1% | Set by the creator in V1 |
| Anti-Snipe fee | An elevated fee at go-live that decays back to the normal 2%. Default start 75% | Set by the creator in V1 |
| Anti-Snipe window | How long the elevated fee takes to decay. Default 75 seconds | Set by the creator in V1 |
| Sell throttle | Paces how often one wallet can sell, to soften dumps. Default 60 seconds | Set by the creator in V1 |
| Anti-MEV | Randomized execution ordering with commit-reveal, so trade order and timing are unpredictable | Coming in V2 |
#### How the colours work
Every configurable protection carries its own badge: green inside the recommended range, orange beyond it, and red well beyond it. The actual value always shows next to the badge, on the token card and on the trade page. There is no single score and no combined rating, so each protection is read on its own. A cap that is switched off shows red, because no cap is the riskiest setting of all.
The defaults are recommendations, not limits. A creator can set a value beyond the recommended range and still launch, and the value and its colour then show for everyone to see. Anti-Whale and the buy limit accept anything from 0 (off) up to 100%. The anti-snipe fee accepts 0, or a value between 60% and 90%. The window accepts up to 600 seconds and the sell throttle up to 3600 seconds. A value outside those ranges is rejected when you enter it, with the allowed range shown, and it is rejected again by the platform and by the contract. A rejected value is never quietly adjusted for you.
{% hint style="info" %}
The elevated part of the anti-snipe fee goes entirely into the pool. It is added to the curve reserve and rides into the graduation pool, so it benefits every holder. Neither the creator nor ZeroTick receives any of it, and both keep only the base 0.75% and 1.25% split. That removes any reason for a creator to snipe their own launch.
{% endhint %}
Protection values are frozen when the token launches. No instruction exists for anyone, including ZeroTick, to change them afterwards. All trade-time protections switch off at graduation, leaving a free market. Allocation vesting and the locked liquidity continue past that point.
For the full ranges behind each colour, see [Bonding curve protections](/documentation.v1.2/token-launch/bonding-curve-protections.md).
### Launch features in V1
The launch wizard has two flows. Quick launch takes two steps plus a security review and fills in the recommended protection values for you. Advanced launch takes five steps and opens the full configuration.
| Capability | Quick launch | Advanced launch |
| ----------------------------------- | ----------------------------- | ------------------ |
| Token name, symbol, logo, and chain | Yes | Yes |
| Fee recipient split | Yes | Yes |
| Token supply | Fixed at 1,000,000,000 | Set by the creator |
| Protection values | Recommended values pre-filled | Set by the creator |
| Token allocation to team wallets | No | Yes |
| Vesting on that allocation | No | Yes |
| Migration venue, on Solana only | Yes | Yes |
Vesting runs from graduation. The creator can set an optional cliff that anchors at graduation, and after it the release is linear and continuous, claimable at any time. Cliffs available: none, 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 1 month, 2, 3, 6, or 12 months. Vesting periods: the same list plus 18 and 24 months. A team allocation is uncapped, but it is always disclosed on the token and on its cards, and a large unvested allocation shows honestly on the insider badge. Supply sitting in the vesting escrow is never counted against Anti-Whale.
#### Fee recipient split
A creator can split their share of the curve fee across up to five wallets instead of sending all of it to one address. It is available in V1 and it is set in the first step of both the Quick and the Advanced flow.
* Up to five addresses, each above 0%, and the percentages must add up to exactly 100%.
* Each address is validated against the chain the token is launching on, so an address from the wrong network is rejected before the launch goes through.
* It is optional. Leave the list empty and the whole creator share goes to the wallet the token was launched from, which is the default.
* It divides only the creator share. It does not change what a trader pays, and it does not change ZeroTick's part of the fee.
* It is separate from token allocation. Allocation decides who holds supply. The fee recipient split decides who receives the creator's fee share.
* ZeroTick validates and stores the split and applies it when creator fees are distributed. The chain itself knows one creator. The split is fixed at launch, and there is no surface to change it afterwards.
### Chains
| Launching | Chains |
| ------------------ | ---------------------------------------- |
| Available in V1 | Solana, Ethereum, BNB Chain, Monad, Base |
| More chains coming | Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon |
| Coming in V2 | Sui |
A launch is quoted in one asset. On Solana, Ethereum, and Base you can quote in the chain's native coin or in USDC. On BNB Chain and Monad it is the native coin only.
Trading reaches a wider set of chains than launching, and you can trade tokens that live on external venues through ZeroTick as well. For what each chain supports, see [Supported chains](/documentation.v1.2/marketplace/supported-chains.md).
