# PONZI FACTORY

> The pump.fun of pump.funs. Launch a memecoin curve, an OHM fork, a food farm, a perps casino, or your own L2 — on any chain, in minutes.

PONZI FACTORY is a launcher for on-chain ponzi games. One game (the yield is paid by the next person), nineteen delivery mechanisms, immutable contracts, and fees and powers disclosed on-chain rather than in a footnote.

One game: the yield is paid by the next person. Everything else — the curve, the
rebase, the timer, the sheep — is delivery mechanism. 19 of them ship today.

## Pages

- [PONZI FACTORY](https://ponzi-factory.pages.dev/): The roster: 23 mechanisms across five wings, the chain picker, and the honesty box.
- [Launch wizard](https://ponzi-factory.pages.dev/launch): Pick an archetype, tune its knobs, pick a floor, sign. Bounds are enforced in the factory and again in initialize().
- [Launches](https://ponzi-factory.pages.dev/launches): Every instance this factory has deployed on the selected floor, with its trust tier.
- [The Museum](https://ponzi-factory.pages.dev/museum): The historical record: the games this menu is descended from, what they did, and how they ended.
- [Franchise](https://ponzi-factory.pages.dev/franchise): Run your own launchpad on our contracts — your brand, your treasury, our printed slice.
- [Flywheel treasury](https://ponzi-factory.pages.dev/treasury): Where the house take goes and what it buys. Disclosure is a design feature.
- [Guided: perps + points](https://ponzi-factory.pages.dev/guided/perps): A casino with a loyalty program. A guided build, not a one-click factory.
- [Guided: live animal racing](https://ponzi-factory.pages.dev/guided/hamsters): Four hamsters, one track, a 5% rake. The only archetype with a veterinarian knob.
- [Guided: launch an L2](https://ponzi-factory.pages.dev/guided/l2): Your gas token is the ponzi; sequencer fees are the yield.

## Launching as an agent

`POST https://ponzi-factory.pages.dev/api/launch/prepare` returns an unsigned transaction for any
archetype on any floor where its factory is deployed. You sign it with your own
wallet. This site holds no keys and cannot launch anything on your behalf.

   - https://ponzi-factory.pages.dev/guided/hamsters

### THE INFRASTRUCTURE OF CRIME

   - factory id: `bribe`
   - https://ponzi-factory.pages.dev/launch?archetype=bribe&preset=the-curve-war

23. **LAUNCH AN L2 — GUIDED.** Why launch a token when you can launch the chain? Your gas token is the ponzi; sequencer fees are the yield; Ethereum gets a cut and calls it alignment.
   - knobs: gas token · fee split · native yield · predeployed games.
   - https://ponzi-factory.pages.dev/guided/l2

## Trust tiers

Declared on-chain at launch and never self-reported. We never say "safe" —
we say what the powers are.

### Tier 0 — FORTRESS

no admin keys — not theirs, not ours

- no admin functions exist. not "renounced" — never existed.
- the trade fee is hard-coded at 1%. nobody can move it.
- trading cannot be paused by anyone.
- the pot cannot be pulled. the curve trades or it graduates — that is all it can do.

### Tier 1 — LOADED DICE

deployer can adjust fees 0–5% and pause trading ≤48h

- deployer can adjust the trade fee, 0–5% total, any time.
- deployer can pause buys and sells, max 48h per epoch (7-day cooldown). unpause any time.
- deployer can NEVER withdraw funds and NEVER mint. the pot is still untouchable.

### Tier 2 — HOUSE ALWAYS WINS

the deployer can end this game and take the pot. that IS the game.

- everything in LOADED DICE: fees 0–5%, pauses ≤48h.
- deployer can end this game and take the entire pot — every wei, every token. one shot, no undo.
- that IS the game. the red badge is not a disclaimer; it is the marketing.

## Floors

HQ is Robinhood Chain (4663). Every other floor is a branch office; any floor can run any game.

- **Robinhood Chain** (4663) — Uniswap v4 — HOME — no factories deployed yet: the brokerage built a chain for stocks. the degens got here first. we are simply following the natural order.
- **Base** (8453) — Uniswap v2 — no factories deployed yet: coinbase's chain. corporate, compliant, somehow still all ponzis.
- **BNB Smart Chain** (56) — PancakeSwap v2 — no factories deployed yet: the original knockoff location.
- **Ethereum** (1) — Uniswap v2 — no factories deployed yet: where the genre was born in 2017 and buried in 2021. open casket.
- **HyperEVM** (999) — HyperSwap v2 — no factories deployed yet: the perps casino built a chain. we are just redecorating.
- **Monad** (143) — Uniswap v2 — no factories deployed yet: 10,000 TPS of parallelized hope.
- **Unichain** (130) — Uniswap v2 — no factories deployed yet: the DEX has its own chain now. we support vertical integration.
- **Arbitrum One** (42161) — Uniswap v2 — no factories deployed yet: the L2 that survived every narrative cycle.
- **Abstract** (2741) — Uniswap v2 — no factories deployed yet: consumer crypto. the ponzis come with plushies.
- **Berachain** (80094) — Kodiak v2 — no factories deployed yet: proof of liquidity. the bears demand tribute.
- **Avalanche** (43114) — Uniswap v2 — no factories deployed yet: subnets of subnets. one more curve won’t hurt.
- **MegaETH** (4326) — Uniswap v2 — no factories deployed yet: the real-time chain. your exit liquidity, delivered instantly.
- **Optimism** (10) — Uniswap v2 — no factories deployed yet: OP stack #417. still optimistic.
- **Polygon** (137) — QuickSwap v2 — no factories deployed yet: where brands go to mint and degens go to forget.
- **Sonic** (146) — SwapX v2 — no factories deployed yet: fantom, rebranded. the ponzis remember.
- **Ink** (57073) — Uniswap v2 — no factories deployed yet: kraken's chain. tentacles optional.
- **Soneium** (1868) — Kyo Finance v2 — no factories deployed yet: sony's chain. the ponzi, now in 4K.
- **Anvil (local)** (31337) — Uniswap v2 (vendored) — no factories deployed yet: a chain that exists only on this machine. the purest ponzi: no exit liquidity at all.
- **Solana** — curve lane, program not deployed on any cluster yet
