LavaLaunch docs
Last updated: October 2026
Pre-launch draft. These docs describe LavaLaunch ahead of the app launch on Oct 27 · 2:00 PM UTC. Sections marked finalizing describe behavior that is still being specified and may change before launch.
Overview
LavaLaunch is a creator-first launchpad for fixed-supply community tokens on Solana. A creator configures a token — name, symbol, and identity — pairs it through the supported Solana market flow, and chooses how the token's share of generated fees is routed.
Every launch picks one of three reward models: Creator rewards, Community rewards, or Buyback & burn.
Launch flow
- Create. Upload an image, name your token, and set its identity. LavaLaunch tokens have a fixed supply — no tokens can be minted after launch.
- Choose a pair. Select the Solana asset your community trades in. The token pairs through the supported Solana market flow — no migration step after launch.
- Choose rewards. Select the reward model that decides where the token's routed share of generated fees goes.
- Launch. Open the market and let the community take it from there.
Reward models
| Model | Recipient | Mechanism |
|---|---|---|
| Creator rewards | The creator's wallet | All distributable rewards go to the creator. |
| Community rewards | Eligible token holders | Distributable rewards are shared with token holders that meet the launch's eligibility rules. |
| Buyback & burn | The token itself | Eligible generated fees are used to buy back and burn the launched token, removing it from supply. |
Distributable rewards means the portion of generated fees allocated to the chosen reward model — after the protocol share and any costs defined by the launch flow. It is not 100% of trading volume or gross fees.
Fees & routing
Trading activity on a launched token's market generates fees. Those fees are split between a protocol share — which funds LavaLaunch — and the token's routed share, which follows the chosen reward model.
Finalizing: the exact fee split, holder eligibility rules, distribution timing, swap and burn mechanics, and transaction costs are being specified and will be documented here before launch. Nothing in these docs should be read as a promise of reward amounts, timing, or frequency.
Holder eligibility
Finalizing: for Community rewards launches, eligibility rules (such as minimum balances or holding windows) are set per launch and will be shown clearly on each token's page before you trade.
Risks
- Tokens launched on LavaLaunch are volatile assets. You can lose everything you put in.
- Rewards depend on fees actually generated by a market. Holding a token does not guarantee distributions.
- Buyback & burn does not guarantee price appreciation or a permanently shrinking effective supply in all circumstances.
- Always verify token addresses and transaction details before signing. LavaLaunch will never ask for your seed phrase or private key.
