This mechanism uses a bonding curve with virtual reserves, exponential pricing, and Thirdtrade migration. It covers initial pricing, allocation, fees, and token calculations. The documentation explains PumpMore token operations from launch to migration.
Introduction
This document outlines the implementation of a bonding curve mechanism for buying and selling tokens on PumpMore based on virtual collateral and token reserves, using a Constant Product Model (also known as a Constant k curve).
The curve has an exponential shape so that the price rises slowly at the start and faster towards the end. Once 80% of the 1B token supply is sold on the curve, the Fully Diluted Valuation (FDV) reaches 14,000 XPAA, and all remaining tokens & collateral migrate to Thirdtrade. Approximately 2,925 XPAA of collateral is collected on the curve.
Constant Product Model (Constant k)
The core equation of the model is:
k = vTOKEN * vXPAA
Where:
- k is a constant
- vTOKEN is the virtual token reserve
- vXPAA is the virtual XPAA reserve
This constant product is maintained throughout the token sale process, creating the bonding curve.
Initial Values and Calculations
- Total supply of tokens (T) = 1,000,000,000
- Initial virtual token reserve (iVTOKEN) = 1,073,000,000
- Target FDV at 80% sold = 14,000 XPAA
- Target price at 80% sold = 14,000 XPAA / 1,000,000,000 = 0.000014 XPAA per token
- Initial price = 0.00000093 XPAA per token (calibrated to reach target)
- Initial virtual XPAA reserve (iVXPAA) = 1,073,000,000 * 0.00000093 ā 998 XPAA
- Constant k = 1,073,000,000 * 998 = 1,070,854,000
Key Parameters
- Minimum price: 0.00000093 XPAA
- Allocation at Migration (A) = 80% of total supply = 800,000,000
- This triggers migration to Thirdtrade
- Maximum allocation of 82% can be sold on the curve if a large trade occurs near the 80% threshold
- FDV (Fully diluted valuation) at 80% of tokens sold = 14,000 XPAA
- Market Cap at 80% of tokens sold = 11,200 XPAA
- Migration fees:
- 224 XPAA paid to Thirdtrade
- 100 XPAA paid to PumpMore
- Total migration fee = 324 XPAA
Price and Collateral at 80% Sold (800,000,000 tokens)
- Tokens remaining in reserve: 1,073,000,000 - 800,000,000 = 273,000,000
- XPAA reserve at 80% sold: 273,000,000 * vXPAA = 1,070,854,000 vXPAA = 1,070,854,000 / 273,000,000 ā 3,923 XPAA
- Price at 80% sold: 3,923 / 273,000,000 ā 0.000014 XPAA per token
- FDV at 80% sold: 1,000,000,000 * 0.000014 = 14,000 XPAA
- Actual market cap at 80% sold: 800,000,000 * 0.000014 = 11,200 XPAA
- Collateral collected: 3,923 - 998 = 2,925 XPAA
Collateral Collection Explanation
The collateral collected is calculated as the difference between the final XPAA reserve (at 80% tokens sold) and the initial XPAA reserve:
Collateral = Final XPAA reserve - Initial XPAA reserve
= 3,923 - 998 = 2,925 XPAA
We subtract the initial XPAA reserve (998) because this amount was not actually collected from token sales; it was the initial "virtual" reserve set up to create the bonding curve. The 2,925 XPAA represents the actual XPAA collected from token sales.
Explanation of the 998 XPAA subtraction:
The subtraction of 998 XPAA in the collateral calculation is crucial for accurately representing the amount of XPAA actually collected during the token sale process. Here's a more detailed explanation:
- Initial State: At the start, we set up a "virtual" reserve of 998 XPAA. This isn't real XPAA that we possess; it's a mathematical construct to create the desired bonding curve shape.
- Final State: At 80% tokens sold, our XPAA reserve has grown to 3,923 XPAA. This includes both our initial virtual reserve and the XPAA collected from token sales.
- Actual Collateral: To determine how much XPAA we actually collected, we need to subtract our initial virtual reserve: 3,923 XPAA (final reserve) - 998 XPAA (initial virtual reserve) = 2,925 XPAA (actual collateral collected)
This 2,925 XPAA represents the real XPAA that has been collected through the token sale process. It's this amount (minus fees) that will be used to provide liquidity on Thirdtrade.
By subtracting the initial virtual reserve, we ensure that we're only counting the XPAA that was actually collected, not the "virtual" XPAA that was used to set up the bonding curve initially.
Simulation
Tokens to Migrate (M) Calculation
M = (Collateral collected - Migration fees) / Price at 80% sold
= (2,925 - 324) / 0.000014
ā 185,785,714 tokens
Tokens to Burn (B) Calculation
B = Total Supply - Allocation - Tokens to Migrate
= 1,000,000,000 - 800,000,000 - 185,785,714
= 14,214,286 tokens
Final State After Migration
- Tokens sold on curve: 800,000,000
- Tokens migrated to Thirdtrade: 185,785,714
- Tokens burned: 14,214,286
- Total tokens in circulation: 985,785,714
- XPAA collected as collateral: 2,925 XPAA
- XPAA used for Thirdtrade liquidity: 2,925 - 324 = 2,601 XPAA
Thirdtrade liquidity pool is created with 2,601 XPAA and 185,785,714 PumpMore tokens.
Summary
This mechanism ensures:
- A smooth exponential price curve from 0.00000093 XPAA to 0.000014 XPAA
- Exactly 14,000 XPAA FDV at 80% tokens sold
- 11,200 XPAA market cap at 80% tokens sold
- Collection of 2,925 XPAA as collateral, close to the target of ~2,857 XPAA
- Sufficient collateral for migration fees and initial liquidity on Thirdtrade
The Constant k Model provides a predictable and transparent token sale process, incentivizing early participation while ensuring a fair distribution and value accrual for the PumpMore ecosystem.
