FAQ
The questions people ask before they join.
Can I lose money?
Yes. After launch your money is coins and what you get back depends on the price then, which can be less than you put in. Aboard before launch: put in 0.1 BNB, sell it all at the floor, and about 0.0988 BNB comes back; a spike that falls back is not covered. Buying after launch: the floor is at the opening price, not at your buying price, and 0.1 BNB bought at 3.3× the open is about 0.03 BNB at the floor. You cannot sell while the venue is paused or the platform's safety brake is on, and the floor works only in this coin's own pool.
After launch, how do I get my money back?
No refunds and no leaving after launch. To get BNB back, sell on the coin page: the group's fee (1% by default), no surcharge. Nothing trades while the venue is paused or during a safety brake.
What does “at least X” mean, with one price for all?
Everyone pays one price, but it is only fixed at launch: a bigger pot means a higher price and fewer coins for the same BNB. The group's cap is the most, so the count at the cap is the least you get; a smaller pot gives more. It counts coins, not value.
How high can the opening valuation go?
A 6 BNB starting valuation plus what the group put in, so at most 6 BNB plus the cap; each group's cap is in its rules. Dollars are at the current BNB price.
What if it doesn't fill?
Not full and under the cap at the deadline, every BNB goes back in full to the wallet it came from, with no fee taken: press Refund for your own, or Refund everyone to send a batch back; whoever presses pays the gas, a few cents. It does not come back by itself; leave it and nothing is lost, and you can come back and press any time.
Can I leave after joining?
Any time before launch, for a fee (1% by default) that stays with the group; in the last hour doors lock; after launch there is no leaving.
Why can I only put in 0.2 BNB when others put in more?
Everyone uses the same sum: base + holding bonus + bring-people bonus, up to the cap. People putting in more have brought others or keep group coins seated. To put in more: bring people, or seat group coins.
What do leaders get?
+0.1 allowance per person you bring aboard; people who first arrive through your link and bind to you pay you 0.1 BNB per 100 BNB they trade by default, and a dev can give more; the most brought is the group MVP. In groups with a recruit pool you are also paid by the BNB you brought: the BNB put in by the people you brought who are still aboard at launch, each 1 BNB earning the pool divided by this group's cap, whatever other leaders bring; claim within 90 days, because whatever is unclaimed after that can go back to the dev.
Can leaders and the dev sell?
Yes. One price does not mean selling together: above the floor, whoever sells first takes the gains; at the floor, order moves the result by only about 0.1%. The dev's stake pays the same price, cannot leave, and unlocks gradually over 7 days; once unlocked it can be sold. Leaders and members have no lock and can sell at any time. The dev takes their chosen share of fees (40% by default).
Who can pause things?
What the platform can do: pause new groups; pause joining; cancel a group that has not launched, with full refunds; pull the safety brake, which stops trading, launches, fee claims and the dev's unlock claims for at most 72 hours at a time and 168 hours in total, a power that ends 90 days after genesis; stop new groups for good, one way, which leaves groups already open as they are. What it cannot do: change this group's rules midway; touch your money, your coins or the floor; switch off leaving, refunds, coin claims, share claims or standing up. The trading venue can also pause trading and launches: how long is up to the venue, the contracts set no time limit, and you cannot sell while it lasts. A full group waits for it to resume; if it never does, full refunds open once the group has been full 24 hours without launching.
Where are my coins after launch?
Press Claim. By default they take a seat straight away; stand up any time.
What is the cool-down? Do I pay it if I was aboard?
For 10 minutes after launch, anyone buying pays a surcharge, including people who were aboard: 90% at first, down 9% a minute, 0 after 10 minutes. At 60%, 0.6 of 1 BNB is the surcharge. It buys back and burns this coin. Sells pay none.
What is the floor?
After launch the whole pot sits just under the opening price (about 0.1–0.2%), and nobody can take it out. Put in 0.1 BNB, sell everything at the floor, and you get back about 0.0988 BNB; the roughly 1.2% missing is mostly the fee, and selling first or last moves it by only about 0.1%. You can still lose money. The floor price is fixed and never moves up, so a spike that falls back is not covered. The floor is at the opening price, not at your buying price. You cannot sell while the venue is paused or the platform's safety brake is on, and the floor works only in this coin's own pool.
How does Mileage share work, and when can I claim?
The dev's chosen share of each fee (20% by default) flows by the second to everyone seated, by coins seated and mileage boost. The coin page shows when this round ends. You only share while you are seated: sit down midway and you share only the seconds you were in, so a new seat brings no instant share, and a late rider inherits nothing left unstreamed. When a new amount arrives, whatever is left joins it: if the new amount is at least what is left, the end moves later; if it is less, the end stays. If almost nobody is left seated, the round ends early and what is left goes to buyback-and-burn. What has flowed out can be claimed any time. The longer you stay, the bigger the boost, up to ×3 after 30 days in a row (veteran rider), but a boost only books when your seat is touched: claim, seat more or stand up. A coin paired with a stock token has no Mileage share. More trading, more to share. No trading, nothing to share. Only past numbers are shown.
Do group coins get FEAST emissions?
Group coins have no FEAST emission. Direct-launch coins keep their weekly FEAST.
Why an extra signature to join, and what does binding do?
If you came through a leader link and have no referrer yet, tapping Bind referrer and join asks for one free message (no gas) and then the join; the binding rides inside that join transaction. You pay nothing extra; the referrer share of the fee goes to them.
Why was my refund in WBNB?
A few wallets cannot receive BNB, so the contract refunds WBNB 1:1; swap it back in your wallet.
What if the launch gets stuck?
It normally launches in the last join. If not, Help launch appears and anyone can press it; whoever presses pays the gas. A full pot shows as full, and a leave can also make a group full; the same button works. Full for 24 hours without a launch: full refund.
What is an elite group?
A dev can set a gate at open: up to 3 paths, and meeting every condition on any one of them lets you join. There are four conditions: the diamond-hands score, the X influence score, FEAST held, and groups been on. A gate cannot change once open, and it shows on the hall card and the group page for anyone to see, along with who is aboard by tag. Only you see your own scores and how close you are. A gate only says who can join: the platform does not vouch for the coin, and one person may hold several wallets that qualify. The whole rule set is on the Gate rules page. Normal groups have no gate.
What are the diamond-hands and X influence scores?
Two public scores from 0 to 100, with their formulas on the Gate rules page. The diamond-hands score reads how long this wallet holds what it buys. The X influence score reads how many people really read an X account, and needs a linked X account. The “Diamond hands” and “X influence” tags mean a score over its default line. Scores do not affect your allowance.
How do I link X? Is my account shown?
Under Me or Lead, tap Sign in with X and approve on X; you come back linked. We only read your account name, and no tweet is needed. If sign-in will not open (a wallet app browser, say), tap “Can't sign in? Verify with a tweet” and post one tweet with a code; once we read it you are linked. After that you can post a squad tweet in one tap, or not. Your @handle is hidden by default (others see “X linked”); you choose whether to show it, and you can unlink. Verified leaders are KOLs registered by Feast and carry a badge.
Can I play in my region?
Singapore: no joining or trading for now. UK and Hong Kong: accept the terms first. US: join and trade, no Mileage share.
