Anti-Snipe & Fair Launch Safeguards ​

One of the biggest frustrations in crypto trading is losing early opportunities to automated sniper bots that buy up pool liquidity within milliseconds.

Proto incorporates built-in, hardcoded smart contract rules during the opening blocks of a launch to ensure everyday community members have a fair chance to participate.


How It Works ​

Proto employs a dynamic decaying sniper fee on its bonding curve architecture:

  • At the exact second of launch ($t=0$), an automated 99% tax applies to any predatory bot attempting instant execution.
  • The fee rapidly decays over the next 3 seconds ($t=1 \to 25%$, $t=2 \to 3%$, $t \ge 3 \to 0%$).
  • Within seconds, standard zero-tax trading resumes smoothly for normal human traders.

Transparency & Safety Guarantees ​

  • No Whitelists or Gatekeepers: Anyone with a Web3 wallet can participate once the fair launch window opens.
  • No Admin Switches: Anti-snipe limits are mathematically hardcoded into the contract and expire without human intervention.
  • Selling Always Enabled: There are no artificial lockups or withdrawal cooldowns on tokens purchased by users.
