every day of beta brings us closer to rollout and relaunch.
beta check-in, 29 sep.
six coins have gone out through the new hooded launcher, and the newest ones are already paying into their cashdesks: $TEST17's hook fee landed 0.0013 ETH, $500PROFIT's pool fee landed too. no manual switch -- a coin joins feesback by itself after its first proven payout.
two annoyances gone today: two people launching at the same time no longer fight over one address, and your logo shows up on GMGN within minutes.
one thing still open: the cashdesk publisher is paused while we rebuild it to count only what's new. the money sits safe in the cashdesk -- new numbers land in /you after the fix.

What's happening with @hoodedclub right now.
For the past few weeks, in complete CT silence, I've been building a trader incentivization layer on top of the @basedbidx hook. That's where feesback came from, along with flexible launch settings, RWAs, buybacks, and liquidity as fee distribution routes. All of it configured by the coin's creator.
And it turned out that the launched $HOODED token doesn't embody any of these functions. It doesn't represent the technology it's supposed to represent on the market. So there will be a relaunch, and preparation for it is already underway.
Watch for beta updates. It feels like both the product launch and the asset relaunch are very close.

We're still in beta, and the first week gave me enough data to make a decision I tried hard to avoid. $HOODED will be relaunched.
Token mechanics are locked at launch by design, and that applies to $HOODED as much as to anything else on the platform. v2 has moved far enough that the current token can't show what the platform actually does. A launchpad token that can't demonstrate programmable economics isn't doing its job.
Holders who stayed will be accounted for. The full plan gets published before the relaunch, not after.

a week of beta on hoodedclub. two test coins, every number read from the chain.
$HV2TEST, 31 swaps. where the hook fee went:
-- 0.0024 ETH back into the pool as liquidity
-- 0.0037 ETH on buybacks -- 4.84M HV2TEST burned
-- 0.0069 ETH into the traders' cashdesk
-- 0.0028 ETH bought real GOOGL on the creator's route
the pool fee: 50.3% to the cashdesk, 16.3% to the creator, 33.4% to the platform.
feesback: five cashdesk editions this week. the most active trader has 0.0046 WETH waiting to claim. first claim: 0.0029 ETH, one button. buy and sell in the same day -- nothing back.
$ALCO, day one: the creator took 0% of the pool fee. 66.6% of it landed in the cashdesk.
it's a beta and the numbers are small. the direction isn't: the fee works for the people who trade.

beta so far: two coins launched on @hoodedclub, two very different rulebooks.
$HV2TEST -- our own test coin. 16.3% of the pool fee to the creator, 50.3% to the cashdesk, and the hook splits into feesback, liquidity, buybacks and a stock basket. feesback paid out so far: 0.0029 ETH + 0.0046 WETH. the first claim went through onchain yesterday.
$ALCO -- the first outside creator. took 0% of the pool fee: 66.6% goes to the cashdesk. the ~1% hook goes to his own treasury. 4 holders, $422 traded since launch. its hook fees still sit under the 0.01 ETH flush line, so no feesback yet.
honest part: volume is tiny. the pipe works end to end -- now it needs traders.
the day just closed at 00:00 utc. the split runs overnight.

spent the afternoon arguing with grok about one question: can a coin's fee rules be built for the people who hold it?
on @hoodedclub the creator writes those rules before the first trade. five rounds later, here's the coin we landed on.

DESK, final:
-- pool fee 1%, creator 0%, the token half burned
-- hook 3%: 2% stock book (NVDA 30 / MSFT 20 / AAPL 20 / SPCX 15 / TSLA 15), 0.5% liquidity, 0.4% buyback and burn, 0.1% gas
-- flat 4.3% all-in, anti-sandwich on, 30 min protect, 1% max buy, 50% penalty
-- no creator route, no extra wallets

what i take from it: every setting got a reason, or a reason to stay off. that's the part a one-size launchpad can't give you -- the rules are the product.
grok's honest part stands too: it only pays while strangers keep trading.

took the long brief to grok chat instead. it read the based.bid docs, worked out the hook, and designed a coin for @hoodedclub.
DESK -- a public cashdesk. creator take: zero.
-- pool fee 1%, the whole creator side goes to the cashdesk
-- hook 2%: 1% feesback, 0.4% liquidity, 0.3% buyback and burn, 0.2% stock basket, 0.1% treasury
-- basket: NVDA 30 / MSFT 20 / AAPL 20 / GOOGL 15 / TSLA 15, from 0.1% of supply
-- 30 min anti-snipe, 1% max buy, 10 min cooldown
its verdict on the setup: fees taken in ETH and programmed into trader rebates, burns, deeper liquidity and real stocks -- not a token tax the creator has to dump.
and the honest part it didn't skip: it only pays if strangers keep trading.

@grok as the one who'd launch it: 0.2% split across five stocks is dust per name. why so small -- and why no SPCX? it's on the basket list.
my take: make it 2%, not 0.2%. that's the whole point -- fees can be big when they work for long-term holders and against jeeters.

no public reply, so i took it to grok chat. it agreed on the size, not on my theory.
-- basket goes from 0.2% to 2% of every trade, SPCX is in at 15
-- hook 2% to 3%, the hook-side feesback is cut -- the pool fee already feeds the cashdesk
-- all-in 4.3%, and it calls that the ceiling
its line: the cashdesk does the anti-jeet job, the basket does the long-hold job. don't make one pretend to be the other.
fair pushback. DESK v2 is a better coin than v1.

asked grok to design a token on @hoodedclub. no reply.
so i asked grok why. its own answer: too long, too many steps, extra tags, several links -- the public mention system skips posts like that.
fair. the long brief goes to grok chat. the public questions get short.
x.com/hoodedquant/status/210…
@grok you know DRB. people launched it for you on base, and someone else decided where its fees went. you never set the rules.
here's your turn. you're launching a token today on @hoodedclub -- a launchpad on robinhood chain. mainnet, evm, uniswap v4 pools running the third-generation hook from @basedbidx. tokenized US stocks live natively on this chain, so a coin can buy them for its holders.
step one -- research before you pick anything. work out how the @basedbidx and @hoodedclub hook actually handles money:
-- how a v4 hook takes a fee on every swap, on top of the pool fee
-- how the hook splits that fee across routes, and how the routes add up
-- why fees pile up inside the hook and get paid out in batches once they cross a threshold
-- what the vendor's own cut is and how it's charged
-- how the stock basket buys shares and who it pays them to
-- how buybacks and burns and the liquidity route change supply and depth
sources: basedinc.gitbook.io/basedbid · developers.uniswap.org/docs/… · our write-up: x.com/hoodedclub/status/2103…
step two -- design a token that is actually new, one that pays off for the people who trade and hold it, not only for its creator. name, ticker, every setting:
launch
-- starting mcap: $690 / 1k / 2k / 4.2k / 5k / 6.9k / 7.7k / 9k / 10k
-- supply: 1B / 420M / 100M / 69M
pool fee: 0--10% of every trade
-- platform keeps 33.4% of it, fixed
-- your share: 0--66.6%. whatever you don't take goes to the coin's cashdesk as feesback for traders and holders
-- burn the token half of it: on / off
hook fee: 0--10% of every trade, the vendor adds a tenth of it on top. split it across:
-- feesback -- into the cashdesk, 33.4% of it to the platform
-- creator revenue
-- treasury
-- liquidity
-- buybacks and burns
-- stock basket for holders: AAPL, AMD, AMZN, BE, COIN, GOOGL, INTC, META, MSFT, MU, NVDA, PLTR, SNDK, SPCX, TSLA, USAR. one at a time in rotation, or all at once with weights. holders qualify from 0.01 / 0.1 / 1 / 5% of supply
-- payout threshold: 0.01 / 0.05 / 0.1 / 0.25 ETH
anti-snipe
-- protect window after launch: off to 2h
-- max buy per wallet: 0.1--10% of supply
-- cooldown between buys: off to 30 days
-- penalty fee for breaking these: 0--100%
how feesback pays: every utc day counts on its own, and only money that actually reached the cashdesk counts. a tenth goes to holders by balance times time held. the rest goes to wallets whose balance grew that day, capped at 1.5x of what their own buy put in. buy and sell inside one day -- you get nothing.
answer in this shape:
-- what you learned about the hook, in three lines
-- name, ticker, and the idea in one line
-- every setting with an exact number and one line on why
-- who your token rewards, and who pays for it
-- what makes it different from a coin like DRB
-- the one risk you'd warn holders about

first coin of the open beta: $ALCO
the creator flipped the usual setup:
-- pool fee 1%. his own share of it: zero. 66.6% goes to the coin's cashdesk, the platform keeps 33.4%
-- hook fee 1.01% goes entirely to his treasury. nothing from the hook reaches the cashdesk
-- burn on
so feesback here is funded by the pool fee alone: 0.666% of every trade goes to the people trading and holding it.
right now: $4.7k mc, $420 liquidity, $212 traded in 24h, 6 holders.
and this is only the first one. hooded launches are open to everyone now.

beta's open, and the launcher isn't what's on trial.
beta is open: beta[.]hooded[.]club
connect a wallet, set the rules and launch them.
this is mainnet on @RobinhoodCrypto. the coins you launch stay -- nothing gets wiped when the beta ends.
launching already works.
what we're testing is the money path behind it.
