The basics

HookFun launches coins on Base with their own trading rules built into the pool: anti-sniper, exit tax, king of the hill, market hours and more. Each coin trades against the asset you pick, ETH, USDC, AERO, a memecoin or a real stock like NVIDIA or Apple. One transaction. Liquidity locked forever.

HookFun in 30 seconds

  1. Pick your rules. Up to 6 of the 15 trading rules. They run on every swap and can never be changed.
  2. Pick a pair. Your coin trades against it from its first block: $DOGE / ETH, $DOGE / AERO, $DOGE / NVDAc.
  3. Sign once. A fixed supply coin is deployed, a Uniswap v4 pool opens against your pair, and the whole supply goes into that pool.
  4. The market takes over. Buyers bring the pair asset. Price rises with every buy, with no ceiling. Nobody can pull the liquidity, not you, not us.
  5. Every trade pays a fee. You keep 80% of it, forever, in the pair asset. The other 20% goes to HookFun, to buy back and burn $HOOK.

What's different

Rules in the poolSnipers, whales and quick flips are handled by the pool itself, on every swap, through any router or bot. No promises to trust: the rules are code.
Any pairElsewhere, everything is priced in the gas token. Here your coin can trade against USDC, AERO, a meme or a stock.
Stocks, nativelyBase has real tokenized stocks: NVIDIA, Apple, Tesla and more from Coinbase, wrapped stocks and ETFs from ST0x, each with a market on Aerodrome. Pick one as your pair. Everyone still pays in ETH.
Zero capitalOnly your coin goes into the pool. You bring none of the pair asset.
Locked for goodThe pool position belongs to a vault with no withdraw function. No rug is possible.
Fees in the pair assetYour 80% arrives in ETH, USDC, NVDAc or whatever you paired with. Never in your own coin, so nothing is sold on your chart.
A real marketThe launch opens straight on Uniswap v4. No curve to graduate from.

Nothing here is audited. The contracts are tested against live chain state by the people who wrote them. The liquidity lock is final. Size your launch accordingly.
