How Weirded works

Every launchpad lets you launch anything. Weirded lets you launch anything against anything — the quote side of the pair is a real-world thing, not HYPE.

01The quote asset problem

A launchpad pair has two sides. Everywhere else the second side is HYPE, so every chart you read is really a chart of your coin against the HYPE price. Your coin can be flat and the chart still moves, because HYPE moved.

Weirded replaces that side with something people already have an opinion about: a dozen eggs, an hour of H100 rental, a Labubu blind box. The pair becomes a statement instead of a denominator.

02Reference tokens

A weird thing cannot be a quote asset on its own — it needs an onchain representation. Weirded mints one canonical reference token per thing. One thing, one reference asset, shared by every coin that launches against it.

TOILET → 1 token tracks 1 twelve-pack, 2-ply
EGGS → 1 token tracks 1 Grade-A dozen
GPU → 1 token tracks 1 H100 rental hour

Because the reference token is canonical, two coins launched against EGGS share the same quote asset and the same price feed. They are directly comparable in a way that two coins on two separate HYPE pools never are.

03Launching

Three steps, in this order:

Pick something weird. Choose the reference asset your coin trades against.
Turn it into a pair. Weirded resolves the thing to its canonical reference token.
Launch. Your coin opens directly against it — COIN / EGGS, not COIN / HYPE.

04Supply and allocation

Parameter	Range	Notes
Total supply	100M · 1B · 10B	Fixed at launch, no mint function
Creator allocation	0–20%	Linear vest over 30 days
Pool	remainder	Paired against the reference token
Opening price	seed ÷ pool coins	Your reference seed divided by the coins in the pool, quoted in the reference

Why the vest is not optional. A creator allocation that unlocks at launch is indistinguishable from a coin that exists to be sold into its own opening. The 30-day linear vest is enforced at the contract level, so it is a property of the launch rather than a promise about it.

05Reading a pair

A price on Weirded is quoted in reference units, not dollars. BUBU/LABUBU at 0.000186 means one BUBU costs 0.000186 of a Labubu blind box. The USD figure shown alongside it is derived — reference price × pair price — and moves when either side moves.

usd_price = pair_price × reference_price
market_cap = usd_price × total_supply

This is the point of the design: a pair can rise against its reference while falling in dollars, and that is information, not an error. It tells you the coin outran the thing it was launched against.

06What this build is

Everything settles on Elysium mainnet (chain 99901, HYPE gas): the launchpad, the twelve reference tokens, every pool and every creator vest are plain contracts, and every launch and swap is a transaction from your own wallet. What is not live is the feed. Each reference token is minted and redeemed for HYPE at a rate fixed when it was deployed (its seeded USD level at the HYPE price of that day), so today a pair against EGGS moves like a pair against HYPE scaled to a dozen eggs. See References for where each number comes from.
