Mined, not minted.
Every token on the zAVA Launchpad launches the way zAVA did: no presale, no team allocation, no owner keys. People mine it with AVAX and get almost all of that AVAX back.
Launch
Pick a name, a ticker, an image and a banner, then choose the supply (21M, 100M or 1B), the number of cycles (8, 16 or 32) and how big cycle 1 is. You seed the pool with AVAX. One transaction creates the token, its AVAX pool on LFJ, its Mine, its own buy and burn and its liquidity deepener. The pool's LP is burned at once, so that liquidity can never be pulled. The launch fee goes entirely to buying and burning zAVA.
Your AVAX is the machine
Bitcoin miners buy ASIC machines and burn electricity to mine new coins. The electricity is gone once it is used, and every halving makes each coin cost more to mine.
Here, AVAX plays the part of the ASIC. You commit it, it mines tokens at the current cycle's rate for the lock, and then 90 percent of the machine comes back to you. The 10 percent you spend is the electricity: the true cost to mine. Every cycle doubles it, the same way every halving does for Bitcoin, so the earliest miners pay the least.
Mine
Commit AVAX. Your tokens are set aside at the current rate the moment you mine. After the lock you claim them together with 90 percent of your AVAX. Auto mode mines the 90 percent that comes back again after each lock, so you do not have to come back for every round. Each round is 10 percent smaller, and auto stops on its own once a round would be under 0.1 AVAX. Rounds roll whenever anyone mines, claims or rolls the hopper.
Each cycle offers half the tokens of the one before at twice the rate; the final cycle matches the one before it. A cycle ends only when it is mined out, so the pace is set by demand, not by a clock.
Where the other 10 percent goes
The buy and burn only buys while the price is under the true cost to mine, so it is a standing bid under every token. Tokens launched now buy and add liquidity exactly as zAVA does: one press can spend up to the 15% price gate, once a minute. Tokens launched before this update keep the smaller step they launched with.
Hold
Holding a launched token earns a share of 2 percent of every mine on it, paid in AVAX. There is no staking and no lock. Claim it on the token page, or claim every token at once on the Claim page.
Shield
Every token can have its own Shield: deposit, send to anyone without the chain recording who paid whom, and withdraw to any address. Proofs are built in your browser with the same sealed circuit as the zAVA Shield.
Nothing to trust
No owner, no admin, no pause, no upgrades. Every rule is fixed at launch. Images, banners, comments and profiles are stored on Avalanche, and every number on these pages is read from the chain by your own browser.
