Build your market.

every token launched through pixel market gets a small parcel in a pixel city on robinhood chain. the token trades on its pons v2 bonding curve like any other; the more it trades, the taller its building grows. the city is a map of activity — drawn from the chain, never from a database.

three steps

  1. 1. launch

    name, ticker, logo, a line, an optional first buy. one transaction: pons v2 creates the token and its curve, the contract gives you the next parcel.

  2. 2. trade

    buys and sells on the curve, here or on pons. 1% fee per trade; the creator's share of it is yours, paid by pons.

  3. 3. grow

    traded volume moves the building up the tiers. graduation to the pool turns it into a landmark with gold on the roof.

the eight tiers

traded volume = every buy's eth in + every sell's eth out, read from the curve's logs. same numbers in the city, the sheet and the contract's readme.

questions
what exactly happens when i launch?
one transaction to the pixel market contract. it calls pons v2 — the token factory on robinhood chain — which creates your erc-20 and its bonding curve. with a first buy, the launch goes through pons' forwarder so the buy is atomic and you are exempt from the launch snipe tax. then the contract records parcel #n: your token, curve, name, ticker, logo and description, on the chain.
what does it cost?
pons' launch fee (0.0005 eth today, read live) plus your first buy if you make one, plus gas. pixel market takes nothing: no platform fee, no platform token, no cut of your creator fees.
who gets the creator fees?
you. pons pays the creator's share of every trade's 1% fee to the creator-fee recipient, and the contract sets that to your wallet. fees accrue on the curve and pons sweeps them to its escrow; the sheet shows what is claimable and lets you claim it.
how is my building's height decided?
from the curve's own CurveBuy and CurveSell logs: traded volume = every buy's eth in + every sell's eth out. the tier comes from the thresholds above; inside a tier the floor count keeps climbing with volume (log scale). graduation — the curve raising its threshold and moving to the pool — makes the building a landmark, whatever its volume.
can a building shrink?
no. volume only adds up. a token that stops trading keeps its building; it just stops growing.
where does parcel #n stand?
in launch order. the city is a grid of blocks, four parcels each, around the market square; blocks fill in a spiral, ring by ring. the chain stores the order, the site draws the map — parcel #n is always in the same place.
can i pick my parcel, or buy someone else's?
no. a parcel is the token's, not a thing you own or trade separately. the only market here is the token's own curve.
is there an indexer or an api behind this?
no. the site reads the market contract (one call for the whole register), every curve through multicall3, and the trade logs straight from the rpc. what you see is what the chain says, delayed by at most a few seconds.
who runs the contract?
nobody. it has no owner, no admin, no pause, no upgrade. its address is fixed by its code (create2 through the deterministic deployer on robinhood chain), so anyone can put it on the chain and everyone reads the same one: 0xf3b8a1Fd17e65c91cb6E7cc0Ab9Aa97B448E88C5.
what about tokens launched on pons directly?
they have no parcel. the city only knows tokens launched through the pixel market contract, because that is what its register holds.
