Bonked Autistic Gorilla Shark price

interesting rotation dynamics between launchpad projects. we went from pump -> virtual -> bonk -> zora -> bags -> pump pump is back again but this time with a much more positive sentiment and on-chain metrics.

There is a major problem with the way most popular launchpads in the Solana ecosystem currently operate: they don't pay enough fees, which forces creators to have a lot of startup capital to operate long term projects. This effectively prevents people with little to no startup capital from running any sort of long-term project. No "one solana and a dream" projects unless the token magically takes off into the millions and they're able to sell a small amount of supply in order to keep things going. To Bonk's credit, they do pay better than Pumpfun, but with the payouts only being doled out upon migration (and slowly, at that), a lot of projects die before they even bond. But I do believe they'll keep working on Bonk to make it more creator friendly. They need to be more transparent with the funds and create a better launchpad UI because it's extremely minimalistic (not in a good way) at the moment. Pumpfun is simply extractive and payouts might as well not even be a thing, so I have little good to say about it apart from the fact that the streaming integration is pretty good and something other platforms should consider adopting. They've also been stepping it up with supporting CTOs, but I don't feel like that's enough especially given how low the fee payouts are. Believe and Moonshot have a much better payout system, but both require the projects to bond before payouts are given. This means only serious projects can take off, but that appears to be how they curate their tokens. The payouts are massive, and enough to encourage continued operation of a project, and Believe is very good pre-migration but slows down post-migration, with payouts being trickled out 1 solana at a time. A buggy fee-tracker could make a less experienced person suspicious over it. Could use some work here @pasternak. I'm optimistic about the platform, long-term. I don't have enough experience with Moonshot to talk about it so I'll refrain from commenting apart from what I've already said. Jupiter's launchpad is nice, but it has zero exposure (the only real token that managed to take off was Uranus, to my knowledge) and there is a large amount of friction between putting something on the market and getting people to notice it. It's also not a part of the "meta" which really doesn't help meme projects. The fact that you can set up an impermanent 1-year lock on the LP is nice for developers down the line, though. Raydium pays out in Ray tokens, which, uh, no thanks. Just give me Solana. Enter @BagsApp. Entirely seamless, and you can designate the recipient of the fees to anyone on X. The recipient also gets 100% of the fees, which is more than what anybody else offers. You get to see how much you're earning entirely in real time and once your token migrates, you get complete access to the Meteora pool (100% permanently locked, so don't worry) so you can strengthen the pool. What's more, the fact that you can designate tokens to anyone is a great way of onboarding newcomers into the ecosystem. Bags is also making it so that recipients will soon be able to directly withdraw the funds as fiat currency instead of making a Solana wallet. Nobody else does that. It's not extractive and I wonder how they're even making money. Very good work here, @RAMO, @finnbags, @hunterjisaacson. Keep up the good work.

BAGS (@BagsApp) is the 2nd launchpad for Solana!
